I grew up playing Age of Empires 2, and ever since I was big fan of anything strategy/base building with survival. Hundreds of hours on Rimworld years ago when it was not on steam yet and so on. I look forward to it. Thanks again and have a blessed day! Afroman726 

Oh man the first time you boot up Dwarf Fortress and hear the main menu theme it just hits like a truck.  Its a strange combination of adventure,determination, curiosity and a strange anxiety.  That feeling like times running out.  Its a strange and beautiful blend. Vintage Story is similar to Dwarf Fortress in terms of depth and learning curve but DAMN when you figure the game out its amazing!  Im glad you like my mod and the soundtrack!      :) Cheers!  ChiefKrogan

My guy, I came back to tell you that I have been following DF for close to a decade but never mustered the courage to learn to play this game. I also never listened to the soundtrack properly. You have single headedly made me obsessed. I now crave whatever this feeling is that that music gives me so much, that I'm getting the game. It will also be the first time in my 20 years as a gamer when I willingly buy a game soundtrack. This is pure magic. Love you man.

Afroman726 woah that's great! Thank you for the information!

They work with Temporal Symphony and Cave Symphony!!! :D ChiefKrogan

Does this interfere with Temporal Symphony and Cave Symphony mods? They don't technically add music but they do add new sounds to the game. So I'm not sure if they or other mods from the series would interfere with each other.

Dm me @Michaloid on discord or dm me on the official site. I have to thank you for going through the proper methods of getting your mods up again! Hope to see your mods online again

I have contacted Kitfox Games and they have given me written permission to use their music.  How can i dm you on discord to show you what kitfox said? Michaloid

Ok, when he gives you permission, be sure to stick it on the description of all of the parts and dm me it on discord. Since it's easier there. And once it's done and verified, you can publish the parts again.

Hi!  I have contacted the lead composer from Bay 12 games/ Kitfox studio asking for written consent to use their copyrighted material as a mod for this game.  I will take all my mods down within 10 days if I do not hear back from Bay 12 games/Kitfox studio giving me permission to use their content.  Michaloid

Hello! I've come to request that you take down or modify the 4 parts of this mod to not include copyrighted material.

Have you seen the Vintage Symphony mod by chance? I guess the DF soundtrack might not be varied enough to fill all possible situations, but it would give you much more control over when which individual song is supposed to play. For example, "Winter Entombs You" could be set to only play when the temperatures drop below 0 during daytime, so it would mostly play during actual winters and potentially snowy landscapes.

I have no words to describe how happy I am for finding this mod <3

I play DF for 9+ years, that's what led me to stream play it on Twitch® too, as /edwinfox. One of our fortresses made it - up to Alexandra and Tarn playing it for the Halloween Contest, and we won!

That being said, I used to host Minetest (now called Luanti), a free and open-source block/voxel game/engine. Check out a mod there, called DF Caverns - it's just mind-boggling. I hope some day we have something like that on Vintage too!

I am adding your mods on my VS server right now!

Thanks again!

That's a brilliant idea Boyarde I will absolutely have a look at adding more DF related stuff to it, like pig tails and "Underground" crops. Mushrooms would be easiest to add I think as iirc they can be grown above ground too in DF? (I don't know, I'm not a filthy knife ear! I rarely see the sun)
But further with that idea, I might be able to add other features or things from Dwarf Fortress. Whip Vine will be a priority after the basic 4 crops.

Afroman726 RosstheGreat As a long time DF fan, this is incredible. The soundtrack and the tuning cylinders are awesome to have in VS. Thanks.

Btw another good DF adjacent mod for VS is Mushroomz, if anyone is interesting. It adds all the classic mushrooms from DF like Plump Helmets and Pigtails.

Afroman726 Hey man I appreciate it! It wasn't too bad to make, took several hours though hahah. I DMed you on Discord if you're able to take a look!

RosstheGreat DUDE YOUR MOD IS SO COOL!  Thank you so much for making it! Im gonna post it on my mod page!  Im missing 2 songs from adventure mode ost.  I have to manually convert the ost from mp3 to ogg for the audio to play on vintagestory so some things get lost in translation.  My next project is Soundsense 2012!  Ill def dm you when i get the mod put together :D

Hey Afroman726 I set up tuning cylinders for ya, let me know if you end up making more music mods and I'll add them to the tuning cylinder list.

Absolute legend! I also can't wait to get the tuning cylinders. If you'd like, I know a bit of the Json modding, I can help/do the tuning cylinder setup for the songs. From what I looked at, it didn't look too bad to set them up. :D

RosstheGreat Yep ill patch it right now!  

Praise Armok! @Afroman726

By the way, your Part 1 mod is Client only, while all of the other mods are Client-Server, might I suggest changing that so they're all Both?
I wish to force my friends to listen to the glory of Dwarf Fortress music, because they wont play the game.


For anyone reading who hasn't played Dwarf Fortress, play it! It is one of the most amazing, and most incredibly in depth simulations ever made. Dwarf Fortress isn't a game, it's a story generator, and it's the best at it. And remember, Losing is Fun!
(It does have an incredibly steep learning curve if you want to be "good" at the "game" though, but being "good" at it is boring! 😋)

Huzzah! 😍
You have Struck Raw Adamantine! Praise the miners!

Finished my new patch.  All songs should be working in newest update! :) 

RosstheGreat

All good! Also I'm glad it adds it, every so often I much enjoy hearing some of Vintage's vanilla soundtracks.

There is currently a bug with the mod. It seems theres only 4 out of the 7 songs that will play.   Ill get it fixed in the next update! 

This mod adds music to vanila and does not replace it.  

By the way, does this *add* the music to the vanilla soundtrack? Or does it replace it?

Awesome! Please add Simon Swerwer's old stuff too if possible! and the Adventure Mode music! Battle Sisters (I believe is the name) is an absolute BANGER😄

RosstheGreat  Thanks for downloading my first mod!  Im working on adding all the music from new and old DF.  My next project is def going to be tuning cylinders! :D

😳
Dwarf fortress music is hands down the best game music I've ever heard. Even old DF music was bomb. Is there any way to add these as a seperate mod to Tuning Cylinders? I have a tavern and I'd LOVE to play Drink and Industry in it with my friends! 😍
