Adds four playable musical instruments to Sailwind: a lute, a Chinese xiao flute, a pair of hand drums (nakers) and a hurdy-gurdy. Buy them, take them in your hand and play your own melodies.
Where to buy them
| Instrument | Where | Region |
|---|---|---|
| Lute | Siren Song (market stall) | Aestrin |
| Xiao flute | Crab Beach | Emerald Archipelago |
| Nakers | Neverdin (market stall) | Al'Ankh |
| Hurdy-gurdy | Aestra Abbey (the tavern) | Aestrin |
The price is shown in the local currency. A new one is put on sale a couple of minutes after you buy one.
How to play
- Take the instrument in your hand.
- Press the activate key (R by default) to start playing. Press it again to stop.
- Use the note keys:
| Instrument | Keys | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Lute | 6 7 8 9 0 Y U I | C major scale (C D E F G A B C). One note per key press. |
| Xiao flute | 6 7 8 9 0 Y U I | D major scale (D E F# G A B C# D). The note sounds while you hold the key. |
| Nakers | 6 7 8 9 | Big drum centre, big drum edge, small drum centre, small drum edge. |
| Hurdy-gurdy | 6 7 8 9 0 Y U I O P | E major scale over 10 notes (E F# G# A B C# D# E F# G#). The note sounds while you hold the key, over a constant drone, and the crank turns while you play. |
Flute and hurdy-gurdy tip: to play smoothly, you don't need to release one key before pressing the next. Keep a key held and press another one: the instrument glides to the new note. Release it and it goes back to the note you are still holding.
All instruments can be left on tables and boats and are saved with your game. If you have HooksHangMore installed, the lute and the flute can be hung on hooks (the nakers and the hurdy-gurdy cannot). HooksHangMore is optional.
Installation
- With a mod manager (Gale, r2modman, Thunderstore Mod Manager): install MusicMod and you are done. BepInEx is installed automatically.
- Manually: install BepInExPack, then copy
LaudMod.dllandlaud_bundletogether into a folder insideBepInEx/plugins(for exampleBepInEx/plugins/MusicMod/). Both files must be in the same folder.
Configuration
The settings file is BepInEx/config/com.vikingdmike.musicmod.cfg (it is created the first time you start the game with the mod). There is one section per instrument (Lute, Flute, Nakers and Hurdy Gurdy, each with Keys and Sound). For each instrument you can change:
- The key of every note (for example
Alpha6,Y,Z,Keypad1,F5). - The volume (0 to 1).
- DroneVolume (hurdy-gurdy only): the volume of the drone, from 0 (no drone) to 1.
You can also change them in game with the ConfigurationManager mod (F1).
Compatibility
- The instruments use fixed slots in the game's prefab list (20391, 20392, 20393 and 20394). If another mod uses the same slot, that instrument will not be registered and a message is written to the BepInEx log.
- Works together with my Viking Horn mod.
Uninstalling
Important: if you remove the mod, any save that contains one of these instruments will get stuck on the loading screen.
To remove the mod safely, install Save Cleaner before loading those saves. It removes the missing items when the save loads. Always keep a backup copy of your saves before installing or removing mods.

Made by Viking D. Mike. The 3D models were made by the author. The flute sound comes from the track "Xiao Chinese Bamboo Flute on the Bridge of Avignon" by nourishedbymusic on Pixabay (Pixabay Content License), edited into single notes. The hurdy-gurdy sounds come from the recordings "secondo cantino" and "primo bordone" by freesound_community on Pixabay (Pixabay Content License), edited into notes and a drone. The lute and drum sounds were synthesized for this mod.
