That was awful, but what could one do outside of stealing the griefers' accounts to get them to fight one another? Well, Fansy conjured a plan that was even more contrived but also much more fun. Instead of a harmonious land, he found a hellscape where all low-level players that attempted to be good quickly learned that they were no more than prey for higher-level griefers. Upon entering the Sullon Zek server in Everquest, “Fansy The Famous Bard” quickly realized that the whole thing was pretty unfair. This is much better: a tale where someone uses music to get monstrous men killed. The Legend: No, this is not a fantasy tale where someone uses the magical power of music to make monsters and men put their differences aside. The Player: Just a man who entered an unfair world and decided to fix it with music (and loopholes and killer giants). 4 The low-level Bard that out-trolled high-level trolls I also want to thank Agnahim for his research on. LIP and subtitle text spam, I have no solution and am open to suggestions from those wiser than I. This avoids the problem of the bard continuing after Malukah's song is completed, but we're left with text spam on subtitles as the game rushes through the now-empty verse. Because of this I've replaced the remaining The Dragonborn Comes verses with very short silence. Because of this, when the first "Verse" finishes and Malukah's song ends, the game still plays the next audio files as defined. As for the song replacement itself, I swapped the first verse of the bard song with the entirety of Malukah's because splitting a reverb-heavy song sounds ghastly. LIPs so the injected song does not synch up to the original. FUZ files, per verse of the song, and each. Those of you without subtitles will not see the spam. Those of you who have subtitles enabled will see a short spam of song text after it is completed, but with no lasting or audible effects. The bard's lips will not synch to the new audio file. The bards should now sing sweetly without FUS RO DAH'ing your ears off. For whatever reason the playback volume for music and voice files is very different and somehow I didn't catch that the first time.
#BARD MUSICPLAYER UPDATE#
Update 0.9a - I've reduced her song volume by 15 db and did not pass it through a compressor. See the Bugs: Detailed section for more information.
WAV, shortened it to just "The Dragonborn Comes" section, increased the volume levels and ran it through a compressor to avoid clipping, then converted it to. FUZ files from Skyrim - Voices.bsa, converted Malukah's official. The process to include this masterpiece was not as simple as I thought it would be.
#BARD MUSICPLAYER MOD#
You can use either the Nexus Mod Manager (give it time), or manually download the file and extract the contents to your Data\ folder. You'll find the cited requests and discussion on this mod/thread in Intro music replacement by Malukah. (citation: twitter post)ĭue to the popular request of replacing the in-game female bard's "The Dragonborn Comes" songs with Malukah's cover, I've created this mod to fulfill that need. She has granted permission for the use of her song, in this mod. See the link below for the original video. This song was performed by Malukah and not by myself.
