Ultima 6 Music
Posted: Sun Mar 11, 2007 5:12 pm
I'm trying to play the music of Ultima 6 with my Roland MT-32. However, the only way I've found to play the *.M files is through AdPlug. Unfortunatly, AdPlug doesn't support playing music through my USB MIDI device, thus no Roland MT-32 quality.
I checked the source of AdPlug (http://adplug.cvs.sourceforge.net/adplu ... iew=markup) and it appears that the *.M files are encoded using LZW compression.
I don't know enough C programming to read the code properly. Does anyone know if the *.M files can be extracted into a format that I could play through a MIDI device. Any of the MIDI formats that Winamp supports will do.
I want to get the exact sound from the game, but every Ultima 6 MIDI collection I've downloaded sounds wrong, they are all converted to General MIDI.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you.
