I know this is an old post, but i just couldn't let this get by no matter how hard i tried. So 5 years later and iwth a bit of help from an AI and the work SCUMMVM put into porting 25th and JR into their engine, i managed to create a script that will extract hte XMI files from the 25th archive folder and also output them as midi.
The extract is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zW1UXjM_Q6VkVzO_FAjX5TXBK6DTGq0f/view?usp=sharing
Includes the Adlib Midi and XMI files, as well as the MT-32 version AND the sysex patch needed to run.
I'd do JR too but someone apparently beat me to it since JR's were easier to pull out, their archive is here on this page, about 3 posts in: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=100677
The python script to decompress the archive and extract the XMIs for conversion is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1f8tGWFILZYoCj-xcKgzv74F1wAqfAeCA/view?usp=sharing
As an FYI, i did a bit check and they are note for note identical to the ones that if you rip from dosbox are output, they sound a little different if you're using windows media player, vlc or other tools simply because the soundfont for MIDI playback has changed since the DOS days, so if you find a nice DOS sound font they should sound just like the old game. and the MT32s will play in MUNt or any other MT32 tool once you load the sysex patches.
