Crystal Eve and Clockmaker bring back such warm memories. It's been a while since I discovered those disks.

Thanks for this rip, cool bit of history.

The files were played with Adlib JukeBox v1.64, as the screenshot implies. I have recently learned that JukeBox versions 1.60 and above have a bug that makes notes play at the wrong frequency, which can have little or very noticable consequences depending on the song. One song where it makes a great difference is #133 "The Cloud". Theoretically the entire pack would need to be re-captured by playing all files in Jukebox v1.50.

Hey, sorry if this was brought up elsewhere on the forum - I just stumbled upon the 1.5 Jukebox update diskette, and noticed the ROL files there are with different title from the ones on other disks... It's not immediately apparent to me if this pack includes them as it uses pieces titles instead of filenames, so curious about this.
