LODOSSV1

🇮🇪

LODOSSV1 is a modification for Quake that replaces some of the sounds Chthon makes with audio from the 1990 OVA Record of Lodoss War. The sounds are designed to work together to make a battle song from said show. This modification therefore served as one of the earliest examples of adding music to Quake without needing to make a Red Book CD.

The author ran the Black Wind club, heavily dedicated to RPGs and Anime. He planned to later use the techniques here in his own levels. He also mentioned releasing an updated version of the mod in PAK form for easier usage.

Note that there are a couple flaws with the design model. Since it is based on an entity, namely Chthon, the music gets softer when the player is further from the opponent. The sound cutoff can be noticeable, even from the Elevator. Also note that, while multiple points in the audio were made to keep it going, the audio does not loop and thus a slow player could find themselves without music.
