Also matches with TDC entry: Tyrian v2.1 [SWR] (1996)(Epic MegaGames, Inc.) [Action]
The game has an issue with the main menu changing to the demo too quickly. Reducing cycles can help a bit, but it might risk performance in-game (486DX 66 MHz is recommended, and there's a detail option called Pentium). So only cpu_max_year: 1995 is set. It's not too much of a problem, you just have to input quickly on the menu
DOSC has Sound Blaster config, increased detail, and auto start, plus options for General MIDI, Setup, and the Ship Editor
Also added a shareware variant (maybe a bit overkill, I'm just assuming all these shareware episodes have nostalgic value for people). Installed from TYRSW20.EXE: https://archive.org/details/TOEMGSWC
