    initial v1  
    55I have the latest 1.02 version of the Talkie Edition ( MI1_Ultimate_Talkie_Edition_1.02), which I built today from the Steam version. I used the "flac" option for music.
    66
    7 The Talkie Edition created two subfolders; one is "cd_music_flac", the other is "se_music_flac". If I explicitly point ScummVM to use either as an "Extra Path" for this game, this seems to work.
     7The Talkie Edition created two subfolders; one is "cd_music_flac", the other is "se_music_flac". If I explicitly point ScummVM to use either as an "Extra Path" for this game, this seems to work and use that specific set of music files. Also the option to move audio files for environmental sounds (via extended_SE_tracks_to_game_folder.bat) in the main game folder works too in this case. Those will then play either in CD audio or SE music mode.

    9 By default, if the Extra Path is empty, I'll get the warning message about audio tracks from CD missing, which is the default message for when using the classic version files directly extracted from the SE resources, with no ripped music in the game folder. These (original classic version) files do not contain midi or any type of music on their own. However, in the case for the data files that the Talkie Edition creates, the classic version files have been modified to support MIDI (and MT-32!) so ScummVM will play music, even if it displays the warning message. So, we probably shouldn't show this warning for this case -- although it does hint to the user that the "improved" soundtrack (whether it's CD or SE music) is not used. Maybe we'd need a specially adjusted message just for this case (?)
