Many of you have had issues with the music in GOG's Warlords 3 DLR release. After a lot of experimentation, I managed to fix it on my own Windows 10 computers, and I can share this fix with you.
What this fixes
Music tracks skipping, ending abruptly, or starting late.
Music not playing at all.
Known issues
This fix may prevent the launcher from playing the "bwhahahshshshssh" sound.
That's about it.
Here's a link to download the fixes in a .zip: dropbox.com/s/wgi550opsrnnlop/w3dlr_winmm_fix.zip?dl=0
(I would post a more helpful and clickable one but apparently i'M nOt aLLoWeD tO pOsT LiNkS aT tHiS TiMe.)
Follow the readme instructions, it's fairly simple. If your music already plays but you have odd skips in the soundtrack, all you have to do is copy-paste the music files. Otherwise, you'll have to do the .dll fix. If it all works, listen to Track20 to celebrate!
This has been tested for several versions of Windows 10 from OS build 18363 to 19042.
