Several came from The Original General Series 6000 sound effect library. Some of the sounds are open source now and some aren't but they were used in lots of games in the 90s, like Everquest, Daggerfall, Arena, Warcraft games, even Super Mario 3D Land used the same ding sound as Everquest. You can still purchase a license to the library today, or find the ones that are publicly available.
A lot of the Daggerfall / Arena / EQ sounds were a huge nostalgia blast. If you know which ones those came from or what public library i'd love to be directed towards it as I really would like to get my hands on a copy of them.
I'm trying to remember what game the "emote get" trumpet fanfare is from but I'm blanking. It's something I played as a kid. If anyone remembers I'd be very grateful if you could tell me which game it was. I feel like it was a game where you just clicked around on stuff.
Hey just wanted to let folks know that Vine Realms runs in WINE on Arch Linux but has issues with lighting on all but the lowest graphics preset. Also the game completely loses all input if the window is ever de-focused, requiring the game to be hard-closed and re-launched.
Thank you guys for all the creativity and work you put into this. My family is currently facing an electrical shortage but I've been playing when I can and am really enjoying it.
Glad you're able to enjoy it! We just posted a Linux build. I was unable to test it as I don't have a desktop Linux system set up at the moment, but the Mac build has been reported as working fine so this should as well.
Nouveau drivers tend to be hit or miss in general, so I can't really judge there. But it works well with the proprietary Nvidia drivers on my GTX 1660 Ti.
Awesome! It even works in WINE on Linux (at least for me), unless I tab out and back in, in which case I can't interact with the client at all lol. Thanks to all the developers and the rest of the Variety is Hope team for doing something brilliant this summer. This is very fun.
Very awesome game, It's been running fine for the most part so far on my low-end 6 y/old laptop with integrated graphics & 6 GB RAM on the lowest settings. I have just run into a major issue though. On multiplayer, whenever I enter the cursed cave and reach the second fork in the road, a glowing blue rectangle glitches onto the ground in front of me and my laptop freezes & the game crashes. I only visited this area twice so far and have yet to test this on single player, but both times yielded the same result and I cannot proceed anywhere past that point.
I know this probably directly correlates to my hardware being poop and I'll continue to troubleshoot it later if needed, but I'm wondering if this is something that could be fixed/worked around (or if anyone else is experiencing the same problem!)
We are looking into putting in a global option to disable all post processing effects. It sounds like the height fog effect in the Caves is causing the crash, so disabling that would potentially fix it. Make sure to follow and keep an eye out for updates.
Excellent, keep us posted! That very well could be it. Thank you for the incredible love and dedication you guys are pouring into this project! I've been fan of Vinesauce for almost 5 years now and this game is one of the most exciting things to ever come out of the charity event :)
Small edit a day later: Game also crashes for me when I enter Vinetoad Kingdom at all, possibly for the same reason as above.
How much ram do you have? We've been able to run this on some pretty low-end machines. I'm seeing some crashes that look like it might be due to a lack of ram.
I’ve realized when I click single player I’m in the Mystery zone and everything does work, I just need to figure out how to solve the mystery😅. Thanks!
Just a quick info for the devs. I am currently trying out how good Vine Realms runs on linux under wine. So far the only problem I had was getting the controller to work but that's probably more because of my controller setup.
Sounds good! We're currently working on building Linux and MacOS versions of the client. No guarantee they'll work (server is running under headless Linux but haven't tested a client) but if the game runs fine under Wine, they'll probably work fine.
I've submitted a request on SteamGridDB to add Vine Realms to their site. If/When it is approved, you'll have access to some custom Steam library assets I uploaded, ready to be used for people who like to add non Steam games to their library. I hope this helps some of you out!

What computer requirements would be the neccesary to play?
From a quick test on this laptop here, I can say it runs rather smoothly on "high" quality settings. The FPS suffers a bit on "Ultra" though.,
My specs on this laptop are:
- AMD Ryzen 7 2700U
- 8 GB DDR4 RAM
- Integrated VEGA 10 Graphics
The readme in the download mentions that the lowest spec they tested with was a machine running an Athlon II X2 and a GT 520.
Thanks for the help!
What did you guys use for a sound library? I am hearing a lot of old game audio and ambiance and would really like to know what library that is from.

I suspected it might be the General 6000!

Where is save data stored? I want to transfer it to a different pc

The Linux build works great, thanks!
Can I get specs & drivers? I got a report of issues with a person running Noveau but they didn't get me any specific info.
Nouveau drivers tend to be hit or miss in general, so I can't really judge there. But it works well with the proprietary Nvidia drivers on my GTX 1660 Ti.
Good to know that it's fine on proprietary. Thanks.
Yes

I love this, thank you for making this

Will this still be available after vinesauce is hope? It'd be a shame if it was just shut down in a few days.
Yes, the itch page will remain up and we will keep an official server hosted. You can also play single player or host your own servers!
Nice, thank you!
Has anyone had luck running this on an core i3 laptop? I don’t have a fancy computer and it freezes everytime I launch it.
How much ram do you have? We've been able to run this on some pretty low-end machines. I'm seeing some crashes that look like it might be due to a lack of ram.
I have about 4gb. The game runs and I’m able to pause and click through settings but the loading screen won’t go away.
I’ve realized when I click single player I’m in the Mystery zone and everything does work, I just need to figure out how to solve the mystery😅. Thanks!
That sounds like a bug. Singleplayer is fairly intense due to how it's set up. I'd try multiplayer as it requires far less ram.
Just a quick info for the devs. I am currently trying out how good Vine Realms runs on linux under wine. So far the only problem I had was getting the controller to work but that's probably more because of my controller setup.
Really dig the game btw :D

It'll be here once approved https://www.steamgriddb.com/game/5263985
Is there going to be a mac version?
You could try using bootcamp...
True. I might try to run it using Wine.
We don't have the machines on-hand to test a mac build, but we're looking into publishing a build. No guarantee it'll work though.
OSX build has been posted. It is untested since we don't have the hardware to test it on-hand. Let us know if there's any issues.
Sounds good. I'll give it a shot!
Tested the build on a 2019 MBP (10.15.6) - everything seems to work just fine.
Also tested on a MB Air (mid 2013) - game is playable on low settings, although menus are a bit hard to read as the button images do not load.
The hype train reaches its destination and the Vine is officially Sauced!
