i feel like this fits l4d2 specifically due to it being more action focused

It's all good don't worry. But if you want a horde only version of the mod you've linked, you should probably ask the person who made that. Also there is a l4d2 only version of my mod, if the l4d1 music in this one's not your thing.
Cory Benston 14 May @ 5:47am 
I apologies for that idea, i should ask him for permission if i can make a mod that changes the L4D1 horde only, then asking you to put it. I'm still sorry for the inconvenience of that idea, i should know better.
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 14 May @ 5:26am 
Look, by all means it's a cool mod, but why would I copy paste a part of it in mine, when you can just subscribe to their mod ?
If you want a horde only version of the other mod, why ask me ? Doesn't make lots of sense.
Cory Benston 13 May @ 12:23pm 
I got an idea how to fix the problem with the L4D1 horde music, try asking out the creator of this mod https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3256567437 and tell him if you can borrow the L4D1 horde music and put in your mod?

@Psycho Raven ok
There's a l4d2 only mod specifically for that reason you know ?

I'd argue those music give more of a horror/despair kind of feel but hey, agree to disagree I guess.
Can't argue that this mod's not my best by far, sound design's an actual skil set and all that.
Psycho Raven 26 Mar @ 11:54pm 
can accept the loop thing, but i dont think the credits and mines soundtrack fit for a moment where there's a horde and you're fighting for your life
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 11 Feb @ 7:12pm 
I understand the idea, but you seem to think I chose this duration for some obscure reason. I did not.
I don't have the coding skills to make a mod that changes the music system (I don't even know if that's possible) so all I can do is replace tracks and make do with how the game works.
The game only accepts very specific file duration and anything different, by even a tenth of a second will cause problems.
And there's a l4d2 only mod if you'd prefer.

This mod has the potential to be awesome! Really good tracks in theory, but definitely doesn't work well with l4d1 campaigns. As well as what had been mentioned in a previous comment, the track loop timings. Horde music is supposed to be continuous, however this loops so quick, It changes way too fast. Definitely good in theory and wish it worked out.
TheBradBerryMaster 17 Jan @ 7:20pm 
hello, i love the idea of this mod and did a great job, however i think the loops are way too short, its like 10 seconds of every track, i can barely enjoy it because of how short it is, maybe making the loops at least 20 seconds longer would make it near perfect.
mustard diddy blud 22 Dec, 2024 @ 3:28pm 
Loop is meh
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 1 Oct, 2024 @ 3:40pm 
Alright, just fixed it. Had to update the music to a higher quality version for some reason.
Should be fine now.
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 1 Oct, 2024 @ 9:34am 
Tested it again, still unpleasant.
Sorry for that one, I'll see what I can do.
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 1 Oct, 2024 @ 9:07am 
Sup, changed the terror part of this mod after recent testing.
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 13 Aug, 2024 @ 4:53am 
I mean, I'd say the screeches are chimpunk-like so that might just be it.
Otherwise I have no clue : /
Wee Wee 2.0 28 Jul, 2024 @ 6:53am 
The only mod I have relating to the horde is the TF2 Heavy "incoming" sound
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 28 Jul, 2024 @ 3:30am 
@Wee Wee 2.0 Hey, uh that really is weird.
Althrough, the shrieks of pain are usually somewhat high pitched no ?
I'll ask around, hopefully it's something I can fix.
Dumb question, but your are sure you don't have any other mods that replace horde music, or a bunch of musics that could include horde-adjacent musics ? (like the terror theme for the commons ?)
Wee Wee 2.0 27 Jul, 2024 @ 1:50pm 
Hey, this mod plays random sounds in my ear. Not the high pitched shrieks of pain but random high pitched (chipmunk even) sounds from the charger, spitter added with random sound effects. If there is any way I can show you why or how, please tell me.
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 15 May, 2024 @ 6:54am 
@Box-Chan I mean if you want to rework this mod and make your own version go for it, but yeah those musics are pretty tough to work with. There's some great music that just doesn't fit in a very specificaly timed short loop.
Through, maybe you should try making the loop directly the gitar riff itself rather than leading up to it ? Or pick a specific part of the guitar riff that works in a loop ?
The horde system works by looping the different drums somewhat randomly (I think some follow each other, like 01b, 01c, and so on, but I'm not 100% sure). Also you need to be prepared for the one music to be looped several times in a row. If it doesn't sound nice then, it might be a pain to listen to.
What I did for some of the musics was to make loops that work on their own but also follow each other up. Still, that's 3 loops of around 5 seconds I think ?
Box-Chan 10 May, 2024 @ 11:21am 
I was gonna offer to make a version with the in game mix of IED, but looking in the addon files it sounds like it doesn't even make it to the main guitar riff where the difference is, so I don't know if its fully necessary anymore

the world is thirsty, lets give him water
Flinch/Anomaly 28 Mar, 2024 @ 2:31pm 
Hey, all good. It's great the way it was finished. I approve 100%.
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 28 Mar, 2024 @ 12:49pm 
@Flinch Thanks a bunch !
Didn't mean to come off as harsh or a killjoy, it's just that with all the work it took to have this mod sort of work, I don't see myself changing anything now (save for bugfixing, if I find a way to get rid of the screeching for good)
Flinch/Anomaly 27 Mar, 2024 @ 12:13pm 
Hey, the mod’s pretty impressive in it’s own right. It’s been the only horde music mod I’ve used since I found it. Props to you, creator.
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 27 Mar, 2024 @ 9:08am 
@Box-Chan Hey, sorry, but I don't think I will. I spent a looot of time on this mod already (without really managing to remove the bugs).
I get it, there's a lot of cool stuff in this ost the could be in the mod in theory, but in practice the music needs to be a very short and specific duration and can be played before or after pretty much anything (save a couple of rare exeptions).
Box-Chan 27 Mar, 2024 @ 8:53am 
When they uploaded the REDUX ost to youtube and spotify, for some reason they removed the main riff from improvised explosive device. Could you make a this with the in-game version https://youtu.be/rxpk40cKfc0?si=KjZt2vbSGAQ7TyXR ?
Arg_Zord 13 Jan, 2024 @ 11:16am 
man i hate when am playing survival and then hell called starts but a tank appear :,v
Flinch/Anomaly 16 Dec, 2023 @ 4:27pm 
I personally like this, both 1 and 2's music being modded to it. It makes it sound more like a fight than how the music normally would sound.
Quinn [CEDA Agent] 12 Oct, 2023 @ 6:25am 
i would literally pay money for this to use the In-Game mix of Improvised Explosive Device. (No i wouldn't, i'm poor)

THE PUNTRESS  [author] 5 Jul, 2023 @ 9:57am 
@Mundfish alright thanks, I'll look it up when I can
Mundfish 5 Jul, 2023 @ 8:59am 
Dead Center was when most were screeching.
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 5 Jul, 2023 @ 8:08am 
@Mundfish ah dammit, welp, what campaign did they occur in ?
Mundfish 30 Jun, 2023 @ 3:41pm 
While you helped with the problem, some tracks do persist with screeches.
ArisMaxim 23 Feb, 2023 @ 11:51am 
Extremely well done IMO too. The tracks are great to listen while in the heat of moment.
Basically my main horde music mod now. Thanks a lot m8! :steamthumbsup:
Penetron_uwu 19 Feb, 2023 @ 4:05pm 
GOD
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 19 Feb, 2023 @ 5:27am 
Should be doable, but I don't have lots of time these days, might take a while te be ready.
yoru 19 Feb, 2023 @ 1:36am 
can you make a separate mod so this only changes l4d2 music? This mod is really good, but all l4d1 campaigns just fall flat so hard with this, it don't fit and just makes my ears bleed.
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 22 Oct, 2022 @ 9:48am 
Thanks a lot folks, glad to know you people are enjoying this mod (it was such a pain to make haha)

@Mr Heisenberg Cat Can't do, l4d1 have a very restricted set of musics, and all musics are very short loops. That also play during the passing finale, overlapping the l4d2 sounds.
There's just not as many tracks to work with, so I had to make choices.
Panceggs 22 Oct, 2022 @ 2:56am 
Can you add more songs to l4d1?
spidermastermind100 28 Sep, 2022 @ 5:21am 
Finally found best horde music as sadly KF1/KF2 horde music I had before was removed for no reason. I REGRET NOTHING! :Alberts:
Kjellberg the Miner 13 Sep, 2022 @ 9:55am 
Amazingly well made and fitting.

I give 5 scissors out of 5
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 24 Jun, 2022 @ 3:05am 
@Cayeetus nah you're not, it's an infected noise that comes from a bug I can't fix. I thought it was because of the lengh of the clips but I fixed them all and it's still there, so I have no idea what to do about it.
If you can pinpoint the music, maybe I can double check it ? I've been struggling with this bug for so damn long ; _ ; )
Cayeetus_UXO 23 Jun, 2022 @ 5:12pm 
am i the only one who hears random noises during the songs? like i swear i heard a pig squealing or something weird like that
1cetea 28 May, 2022 @ 3:54pm 
THIS SHIT BANGIN ! !! ! ! ! !
Vaux 29 Mar, 2022 @ 2:56pm 
Though i'm not the biggest fan of Postal 1/Redux, the OST in that game is amazing. The heavy grunge and rock really get the blood pumping.
Glad to see it being ported over, even if it does have some occasional issues.
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 27 Feb, 2022 @ 6:27am 
@»MIDGARD⚔GAMES« Do you have a specific part of the game in mind ? (l4d1 maps, l4d2 maps, passing ?)
In most cases, the tracks are names in a way that makes the order somewhat obvious ( drums + number + letter, giving for example drums03a, followed by drums03b, drums03c, and so on)
But other than that order, the tracks are chosen at random, and sometimes the order of letters and numbers isn't respected by the game, so each track needs to work well on it's own.
乂N6-ViperZero乂 26 Feb, 2022 @ 12:22pm 
What order did you follow to put the songs that way?
THE PUNTRESS  [author] 26 Jan, 2022 @ 11:27am 
@chris no worries ! That stuff happens, in the end the mod works and we know what caused the issue so that's all fine : D
@Vertocohmo thanks ! Welp I don't do much audio mods since my skills are mostly visual related, but I'll try to finish my cry of fear audio cues mod, that could be fun : D
Technically what I do best would be more twisted haha (which would be in the works after I finish a current project)
resting 26 Jan, 2022 @ 2:33am 
Love this!!! Cannot wait for more Postal Redux-related mods. Keep doing what you do best!
