I don't think the "talks" are so much of a problem because the games should support subtitles i.e. you could just set: speech_mute=true subtitles=true If the music would go to a real midi device, there would still be the sound effects to worry about, but maybe they wouldn't be so much of a problem performance-wise as music + talk? - Eero
