Issues fixed

Restore music playback

_Inmm.dll can be used to fix the lack of game music by patching the EXE to run a special .dll file that emulates Redbook audio.
How to use _inmm.dll[citation needed]
  1. Download the _inmm.dll installer and extract it, then run the installer.
  2. Open your VFPC cd in any application that rips audio CDs, and rip the audio into an easy to find place.
  3. Open _inmm.dll Setup
  4. On the "Method" tab, change the "default" option to DirectShow.
  5. Select the "_inmm.dll" tab, then click "add".
  6. Go to the folder you ripped the VFPC audio into. Then select all of the "track" files (2 through 21).
  7. Select "Save" then go to the folder you installed VFPC in. Then save the ini file.
  8. Close _inmm.dll Setup, then drag your VFPC.EXE file onto the "_inmmcnf.exe" file itself. This will pop up a message asking if you want to patch VFPC.exe. Select "Ok".
