Azilut: Does anyone else find that the same music track loops over and over in-game? (It's Track 2 - Contemplation.) I never got the music working on my old version, so I don't even know if this is a bug, but it seems like more than one track should be playing.
(Though track 1 does play properly on the intro screen, and the 'victory' screen also plays a different track.)
I have the same problem running the game on Windows 7 32-bit under Parallels 8 on a Mac. I get no sound or music during the intro, and the same track (Track 1, I believe) plays over and over during gameplay.
I played the Mac version of the game on my old PowerMac and never had any problems with the music track. In fact, on the old Mac version you could select which track you wanted to play by selecting it from the list on the CD (which had to be in the CD drive to play the game -- otherwise, you received the dreaded "No CD" error message).
Out of curiosity, did the songs on the CD have titles? You mentioned Track 2 - Contemplation. I never saw a list of titles for the songs when the game was initially released, but I'd love to see a complete list if you have one.
I think the soundtrack is still the best I've ever heard on a PC game, followed closely by the soundtrack for Colonization. Fortunately, the GOG release of Colonization, like the initial release, still lets you choose songs from the game's jukebox. BTW, the jukebox on the GOG release of Colonization differs slightly from the original Mac version.
I'm wondering if the problems with the Chaos Overlord soundtrack are related to the original version (on the Mac) requiring that the CD be in the CD drive in order to play, though the original versions of many games sold on GOG had the same requirement.
