I have always wanted this game. X-wheel is a very fun game
for those that like puzzles like me. I tried to get it when it was being
sold but I am still a kid and I don't have a credit card so I am happy that
it is now freeware. Question, Is there a license that you have to copy to a
folder like in Terraformers? Leo [email protected]

I was just reading some code examples. I don't really have the time to delve
too heavily into programming now due to being a single parent and all.

Yeah, easy on this end too, but I just keep mine on some and never think
about it. ;)

Hi Cara,
<Makes sense. In my case turning on all punctuation is very easy in
NVDA. Just press insert+p and it will toggle from none, to some, to
most, to all, and back again. So it is easy to cycle through the
amount of punctuation I want to here when skimming a document or some
code.
Cheers!

Well, it should not be that complicated... especially if your locale
is set to Japanese. Just remember that even with the protalker english
addon installed, that's the synthesizer that has to be active. Espeak
by itself won't recognize the language. I'm not quite sure why you're
having that problem.. unless you haven't downloaded the language pack
for Japanese.

Hi Thomas,
To be honest, I didn't even use real sounds from the UK game show, I simply
regenerated them to as close as I felt brave enough to dare. I wanted to
convey the show without breaching too much copyright, especially since I was
making it commercial. Different theme tune, slightly different wheel,
different harp sound etc.
I did often think about putting a mod feature into my games when I was
developing, I just never got around to doing it, since it would also mean
documenting every possible sound effect in the game's repository.
Cheers.
Damien.

Hi Shaun,
I agree. X-Wheel is a very good game. Definitely better than the other
Wheel of Fortune game floating around. The only thing I don't like
about X-Wheel is I can not swap out the sounds for the actual sounds
from the US game show.
Cheers!

Well you've done a good job at closely resembling the sounds for the
game without breaching too many copyrights. I think that's why I love
this game other than it's more stable than the other Wheel Of Fortune
that's out there plus it's losely based on the UK game show.
Regards Chris
