Can you name a few tracks, please? The Opening song seems okay.
Also: Are they missing in M1 in general, or just in the VGM.
And in the former case: Does it work if you don't have VGM logging enabled?
About games being completely silent: If it doesn't work with VGM logging off, I likely can't do anything.
If it works in an offical build of M1, I can compare the sources between the two versions and maybe fix it, though.

Is there any hope for Tumblepop, then? I'm not sure if FoxM1's source is public, though.ValleyBell wrote:If it works in an offical build of M1, I can compare the sources between the two versions and maybe fix it, though.

IIRC I already thought about that a long time ago, but never tried to do it.
I'm using Windows 7, so I simply muted M1 and made it play each song for some minutes (via list files) while doing other things.
This should also work on Vista, but it doesn't work in XP or lower.
But that would be a nice feature indeed.

I recommend to open Notepad and paste the following:
romname is the file name of a zip file in the roms folder, without the ".zip".
e.g. If you want to listen to Out Run, your zip file is named outrun.zip (this must follow the MAME name convention, else it doesn't work), so the line needs to be m1 outrun.
Then save it as "m1_run.bat" (Be sure to select File Type: All Files (*.*), else it will save it as m1_run.bat.txt)
Now double-click the new bat-file and M1 will play in a console window.
If you now want to log VGMs, insert a -g in between m1 and romname. Example:
Code: Select all
m1 romname
pause
