Hi! I'm Monkey Guy... A mighty pirate... err... no, sorry :D This is my first post in Grim Fandango forums, but I read you every day ;) I'm a spanish fan of Grim (sorry for my bad english :p).
Well, I finish it again and in the credits the game show some themes of the game and there was one that was: "Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe Theme by Michael Land" :eek:. I know that SWOTL is a simulator game of LucasArts, but... Which is the theme of the SWOTL? And... Where is the theme of the SWOTL in Grim Fandango? :(
Que la Fuerza os acompaсe ;)

im not sure where it appears in the game, perhaps it's an easter egg.

Hey... I never saw that. :S

I don't even know what you are talking about. What is SWOTL?

SWOTL = Secret Weapons of the luftwaffe.
SWOTL is a game of LucasArts. For more info click here ;):

In the final credits of Grim Fandango there are a few names of themes of the game (Compaсeros, etc) and a theme is:
"Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe Theme by Michael Land".
Michael Land is a compositor of music of LucasArts (he worked on Monkey Island series). So the SWOTL theme is in anywhere of Grim Fandango (possibly a reference). I'm trying find the theme in the game, but I don't know how the theme is :(

where does SWOTL appear?:eek:

I got the "Theme" ( so far as i know a theme is a opening song or intor music ?;)

You can download it heaer, sorry for the stuttering, maybe it was cuased by recording while "playin" .

Dont know where this music is used in the game though.

Arthur

It definitely sounds familiar... perhaps it was mixed into one of the other tracks?

Oh! That sounds so familiar! I can't put my finger on where I've heard it though. Argh!

Wow, good work, Shallim. This will help me :) I'll search this theme in the OST of Grim Fandango. Thanks.

Hmm

I search after that now too!

Its Sallim, of Salvador Limones =) hihi I know I know..^^

I found my english grim version..and fall in love again with this game... man its one of the greatest games !

I searched all over..but could find anything like this with scumrev..

just some weird dialogs of hector in file year 4 or like this...

anyway

Maybe there is a soundfile in the cutscene , I dont know..but it seems like its just mixed in a backgroud song..very hard to identify..

or the got inspirated by the theme.. who know ._l

I think I've got it...

According to GF's Trivia section (http://www.mobygames.com/game/trivia/gameId,201/) on Mobygames, the tune plays in the scene with the zeppelin in Year 2. I never would have guessed.


Akril

Wow, it is as well! It's very obviously the beginning of that mp3 if you listen carefully. That's brilliant - and it makes sense to play there too.

I recorded that too and it is AMAZING!

Never would think of that.
