Dune is actually on my short-list of game to reverse engineer one day. I've left it mostly alone because I know there have been some attempts by others, and I learned the hard way that reverse engineering DOS 16bit games is very annoying.
Might still be worth revisiting someday.

I was saddened a month ago to learn the passing of Stephane Picq, the composer of the music of Dune (the Cryo one) and other Cryo games.
Dune music had seen a release on CD in 92, but had been stuck in legal limbo ever since. Finally, late 2024 Stephane was able to remaster and re-release it.

I also know the sprite image format for Dune has been mostly figured out too, it uses RLE for compressing the pixel data.
