Re: [Audyssey] jim's trivia and hangman
Hi Damien, True, but many of the Sapi voices are affordable by Brittish and American, and Canadian standards. The Neospeech voices were something like $30 each which was good quality speech for very little cash. damien c. sadler - head of x-sight interactive wrote: > not everyone can afford sapi voices though. some of the prices of them > voices, gees, you could get a proper screenreader! *smiles* > > regards, > > damien > ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] jim's trivia and hangman
Hi Nicol, Your score on the Harry Potter trivia sounds pretty good. I think that I scored somewhere around that on the one done by Alan. Sorry, but I will not be adding clues to the words in the Hangman game. The main reason is that there are over twelve thousand words. It took me six months to create that word list. Don't even want to think about how long it would take to write a clue for each of those twelve thousand words. BFN Jim Why does a round pizza come in a square box?

[Audyssey] jim's trivia and hangman
Hi Just wanted to say that I got 68 percent for the harry potter trivia by jim and marcy and 62 percent for the other harry potter trivia so my understanding of the books is reasonably good.I've got a suggestion for your hangman game jim. Sometimes I come across a word which I don't know the meaning of. Either I can't make out the way sapi pronounces the word or it's a word I never heard of. When the game gives the answer whether I won or got hanged, I want to look up the word, so then I load jaws and I open the word web program to look up the word, but that causes mayhem when the hangman game is open. When I launch jaws and word web with the control+alt system hot keys the game thinks I want to change the speed and so it says the whole time: to change the rate use the arrow keys and then press enter. My suggestion to you is: give an extra clue with each word. Currently with each word, the game tells me how many letters is in the word and if it's a place, , person or thing. It would be really nice if an extra clue can also be given, at least on the easyexperience level. I can't remember a word which I heard in the hangman game of which I didn't know the meaning, but if there can be an extra clue that describes the word, then it will also broaden my general knowledge. An example would be: Your word is a place and has 7 letters; it's a place where a king stays. Answer: palace. Or if you think it will make it too easy, at least give clues with less obvious words. ___ Gamers mailing list ..
