I was recently relegated to playing vanilla CivIII on my Windows 10 computer because Conquests was running slow (figured out it was compatibility mode) but I noticed a funny bug. Even with the fix to get diplomusic working again under Windows 10, once reaching the industrial age the music for the Mediterranean civs went quiet. I did some Google searches and saw this is an issue as old as the game. I did find a fix.

Mediterranean civs use the same diplomusic as European civs in the industrial/modern ages, but the game does not realize this. It's looking for two files named "DipGRLatePeace.mp3" and "DipGRLateWar.mp3" in the Sounds/Diplomusic folder which do not exist. The fix is to make copies of "DipEuLatePeace" and "DipEuLateWar" and replace the EU with GR in the names, then you will get music for the Mediterranean civs.
