Re: [Audyssey] wonder if any games can be played on braille plus somewhat easily?
Hmm. One issue is the OS is installed on a 256mb flash drive. It would only be possible to do these things and really do them if it were possible to install pygame and all that on the hard drive since we'd run out of space, hmm. Interesting. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2008 9:23 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] wonder if any games can be played on braille plus somewhat easily? Hi Aaron, Well, I do know the Braille Plus does support Python based applications, no problem, but I don't know if it has SDL and PyGame installed. If so then You might have a possibility of running SoundRTS. I know the latest betas of SoundRTS run fine on Ubuntu Linux 8.04, but we are talking a fully working Linux distribution for a desktop, and not a chopped down version of Linux for a mobile device. I would really need more specs on the Braile Plus before I can really say how possible making games is or isn't for the Braille Plus. I'm not very familiar with the device in general.

Hi. Well, the user enterface that users use, the menus and stuff, I believe that stuff is written in python. I know the calculator is, because it says to use python's math functions because that's what it's written in. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2008 9:09 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] wonder if any games can be played on braille plus somewhat easily? Hi, I am not surprised. I sort of figured the Braille Plus was a very chopped down Linux OS. It honestly would be better to get a laptop with Linux installed instead. That way you have at least a decent list of packages and dependancies.

Re: [Audyssey] wonder if any games can be played on braille plus somewhat easily?
Hi. Good point, but the thing is, Python has many libraries. Unfortunately, the braille plus and icon are not equipped with full, functioning versions of Linux. Well, it might have full Linux, I don't know. To program with it, you need to use a tool called Developer, it's at tech.aph.org/mm Why this is is probably because the Python that is installed is missing a lot of sound libraries thus making sound rts not possible to play. A mud client, that'd be interesting, if it's possible. If I knew which libraries were installed, which I don't, I could maybe learn Python. On Fri, 1 Aug 2008 13:11:29 -0400, Valiant8086 wrote: Hi.

Hi, The Icon and Braille Plus are missing massive amounts of the libraries and interpretters and other things needed to run Sound RTS.
