How does one properly install this with Windows 10? I couldn't find simtunes.ini. Please share how to make this work. Please and thank you!

It looks like SimTunes can be set to run DirectDraw by setting UseDirectDraw=TRUE and UseDirectSound=TRUE in c:/windows/simtunes.ini, bypassing 256 color limit.
