XWVM

STAR WARS™ - X-Wing Special Edition mod |

XWVM is a mod to the original X-Wing game from Lucas Arts and Totally Games by Larry Holland and Edward Kilham. We are re-implementing the executable to extend the game beyond its original hardware support. The mod of course requires the player to own and have installation of the original X-Wing game, or have the GOG or Steam versions of X-Wing Special Edition (either the 1993 floppy, the 1994 CD, and/or 1998 Windows edition). The team of fans developing XWVM is not associated with Lucasfilm Ltd or Disney, and XWVM is not an official Star Wars product. XWVM isn't a standalone game, or total conversion, but a mod to the original. XWVM neither contains nor distributes any copyrighted material. All game resource files (missions, voice overs, SFX, iMUSE automaton, in-game graphics and 3D models, etc) are loaded from the player's copy of the original game, or are replacements originally created by our team, where the original resources are considered inadequate for today's standards.

A sneak peek at the collection of iMuse tracks in X-Wing, synthesized for use in XWVM.

Posted by on

Our collaborator Laserschwert has just released a new batch of sampled audio tracks for the classic iMuse soundtrack.

Listen to it here!

Most iMuse track were dynamic and reacted to the user input and game state, and they will keep doing so in XWVM. However, in order to present it as a normal track in Soundcloud, he chose to just chain several variations.
You can get a good example of this on the "Concourse and Leaving the Independence" track, where the theme plays first as it normally sounds, then it plays again as it would sound with the Historical Combat hangar gates open, then with the Tour of Duty hangar gates open, and finally with the Training Grounds hangar gates open.

The "Space Battle" track is a mix of the themes and event tunes heard during a mission, more or less arranged at random in this track.
