This ED-E combat music replacer is simply a remake based on lucasjose501’s Flight of the ValkED-E.
I created it from the ground up using Sony Vegas and a lossless version of Wagner’s ‘Die Walküre - Act III’. I never got a chance to use lucasjose’s version of the mod as it was removed from the Nexus due to bugs, so I’m unaware of the differences between my mod and his. My sounds are closer to the length of the vanilla sounds. I thought that perhaps the looping bug was due to the length of lucasjose’s samples of 20 seconds (or whatever). Either way I’ve tested it in game and it works well enough for me. I won’t be making updates to this mod even if it does suffer from the same bug as lucasjose’s; I simply don’t have the modding ‘know-how’.
Richard Wagner for his meisterwerk

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,034 endorsements—clearly hits the spot for many players.
- Adds a memorable, epic feel to ED-E's combat encounters.
- Lightweight and easy to install—just drop the file in and go.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects ED-E's combat music—if you wanted more variety, this is a one-trick pony.
- No compatibility notes for other music mods—might conflict if you use a comprehensive sound overhaul.
- Last updated in 2014—likely fine for the base game, but if you use mods that alter ED-E's audio, test carefully.
For Fallout: New Vegas players who love a bit of classical drama in their wasteland and want ED-E to feel like a heroic companion. Skip if you're looking for a full music overhaul or if you prefer subtle audio changes.
💡 Beginner Tips
