The log of the funny game

Certain games that run on GameMaker 8 will rely on the DMIME functions
IDirectMusicPerformance8Impl_PlaySegmentEx and
IDirectMusicPerformance8Impl_StopEx. As these functions are stubbed, the audio
is completely absent when these functions are called. Usually, the solution
would be to use Winetricks to fetch DirectPlay and the related components, but
the latency this causes is around half a second long.

Attached is a log from the parody game Sunky.MPEG, which when run in Wine, has
audio completely missing as a result of these stubbed functions.

--- Comment #1 from Michael Stefaniuc  ---
Even if the PlaySegmentEx and StopEx methods would be implemented there would
be still no sound. IDirectMusicPerformance8 is just a high level porcelain
while the underlying plumbing is still missing.

I don't understand the half second latency when installing the directmusic dlls
with winetricks. That's just a one time cost during the game installation.
