You are welcome, just one note. There is really no reason to keep the .wav files uncompressed; if you are an audiophile and dislike lossy compression you can still use Flac (at least with quakespasm).
Hi All

The music indeed improves the mood of the game.

I should have waited and got the GOG version. I have the Steam version and it's alright but there's no music. >:( I only got Doom on GOG because my Steam Doom is just the BFG Edition.

Is the music working in Dosbox Quake on GOG? It doesn't in any version on Steam.

etb: ... but it does not work with glquake that you should not use anyway.
Oh no! Kill me now! Life has no meaning!: John Carmack is no longer a true mastermind behind his computer coding its next revolutionary engine [remember Project Trinity], his own id studio was sold out practically for nothing to evil Skynet [ah shit, double piles of crap: we don't have here Future Shock either], and now we can't f@$@%ing run glQuke 0.97 with CD Audio!

EDIT: Not true, simple workaround with installing Daemon Tools Lite, mounting game.cue into virtual drive and changing its letter to D: solved this little nonsense in a few minutes (also removing not so open opengl32.dll seemed good)

I still love you GOG

And a bit of .cue editing

The version i got is from GOG and i had to install the Quakespasm to get the music to work , so i guess its the same steam or gog.
Can anyone confirm or decline that the initial GOG version (before music "removal") was playable with music on for both versions: DOS and glQuake???

And if glQuake was playable with music, what on Earth should I change in my current files to make it happen again?
(i have corrected cue files and extracted OGG files already)

EDIT: NOT resolved yet!
filename _winmm.dll to be renamed to winmm.dll, OGG files to be placed to respective folders:
Quake/Music - covers all 3 games with the same audio tracks
Quake/hipnotic/music - no changes
Quake/rogue/music - no changes

This is just silly.
I can't image that all this crap is due to "legal" "issues". The ISO images are still part of the downloaded game AND the matching CUE sheets are available as well. So the music is available to the customer after all.

Most of the laws around copyright are silly and thought for a time before internet... but what can you do... governments have screwed priorities.

GOG is basically selling you a CD.

GOG is not allowed to sell you ripped files from said CD.

I think GOG is the only one to include the image from any DD store, or even the re-released box releases. You can now rip them yourself.

Pity I have the Steam version. :( I don't see the point of having two copies of Quake. (Doom doesn't count in my case anyway as my Steam copy was the BFG Doom 1 and 2.)

I understand that, and I don't want to sound ungrateful... ...but this is just stupid.
GOG is not allowed to distribute the music in some sort of compressed format to customers, but it's perfectly fine to distribute the CD images, which contain the music? What's wrong with people negotiating contracts like this one?

It become even funnier (from the Absudistan perspective) to think that the .cue sheet are shifted for a similar reason :D
Maybe they are the right for CD bitstream of a version and the .cue sheet of another? That would be really nonsensical.
You guys do know that you can just burn the image onto a CD?

I then played the game on a Pentium III with Windows 98 and GLQuake on a Voodoo 2 SLI configuration and the music works just as it should :D
