Ogg-winmm CD Audio Emulator

This fork is based on the pachuco fork. https://github.com/pachuco/ogg-winmm

I have converted the project to Visual Studio 2017.

This project (originally by Hifi) uses .ogg music files on the disk to emulate CD tracks, replacing the need to have a CD in the drive to play music in certain games. Good Old Games uses a modified version for several of their games.

This version is compatible with Windows 10 and has been compiled against the current Windows 10 SDK.

Download

You can download the current version 1.3.0 of the library here: ogg-winmm-1.3.0.0.zip

Building

Open the VS2017 solution "winmm.sln". Run Nuget Restore to download the needed dependencies (vorbis and ogg). Now build the winmm.dll in Release or Debug mode.

Usage

Copy "winmm.dll" into the same folder as the executable of the game you want to emulate CD music for.

In the same folder, make a "Music" subdirectory. Place the recorded music files from the disk as Track02.ogg, Track03.ogg, and so on in this Music folder. Remember, it starts with track02!

Now, instead of playing music from the CD, the game will play music from these files instead.
