Re: Any MLB the show players around? I have some questions
Re: Any MLB the show players around? I have some questions Okay here's what I do on MYL TS 16:RTTS is simple, home screen has play next appearence at top left, by default. Upgrades is one down/to the right, so if you just do that constantly for a pitcher, it'll be fine once you make your guy, you can edit the name and such later after you make them. Pitching is easy if you have it set to button, just release the stick before throwing a pitch and it'll go back to over the middle of the plate, then move the stick and hold the button down, and listen, I just usually hammer circle or first base though I had a weirdly epic play earlierWas pitching against the Rangers and got a ground ball hit up the middle, I heard the crew say I missed it and was thinking oh shit error...then I heard them say what happened, turns out my 2Bp pulled off a triple play by some magic. I dunno either, but that was amazingly fantastic. I need more bases loaded jams to get out of apparently..Either way it's easy, once you're done with upgrades, don'hit R1 and L1 to go to the next screen then straight bak, hit X to play next appearence, and X to confirm it, there'll be a cracking sound or the sound of the bat hitting the ball, hit X when ya hear that, cue loading screen.Caveat: This is for MLB 16 URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=353574#p353574 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: Coming up with ideas for a new game project. I feel like some of these suggestions would make the game too complicated to develop by one person. I would advise the developer to take what seems reasonable and put that in the game. I'd rather have a game with less features than none at all.

Re: join the new blind fun zone forum and have, well, fun
Re: join the new blind fun zone forum and have, well, fun I really wouldn't be surprised if this sight was forcibly taken down by either X10 hosting or by someone else. I'm not sure if this forum constitutes "Offensive Content" or not (on their AUP at https://x10hosting.com/legal/acceptable-use-policy). I didn't find anything about it in their TOS (https://x10hosting.com/legal/terms-of-service), but I just skimmed it. One of their definitions of "offensive content" is content that "Is excessively violent, incites violence, threatens violence, or contains harassing content or hate speech."Legal shit aside though, I'm honestly amazed that Katie/Eliza dared to do this. She knows her reputation and how bad it is. What's even worse is that she tried this in a group that I am an admin in (it really is quite tranquil, I haven't had to use my admin powers in over 4 months and it has over 200 people). Or she tried something similar to this "Steve Jobs" shit she still goes on and on and on about. I think I'm thinking of another group. I really can't remember . Anyway, she created a second Skype account, used the /secondary switch to load another instance of it, and tried to act like Steve Jobs. Even after I was forced to post exactly how Steve Jobs died (from his Wikipedia article) because she wouldn't just admit who she really was, she still continued on and on about it. I really didn't want to post that -- it's so sad, and I was originally hoping I wouldn't have to -- but I was forced to, primarily in the hopes that it would jolt her out of this obsession of hers. Unfortunately it didn't work. In fact, she wished death to befall me on October 21. She also threatened to release my mailing address and phone number... though I saw right through that. Oh... this part of it was actually kinda funny. She said that my brain was "nonexistent", and I replied with, "I am me. I think, therefore I am." That part was actually quite hilarious. I'd release the chat log, but I don't want to cross the boundaries of character assassination... though I do admit that she probably does deserve it.

searching for a specific kind of tool, does something like that exist?
searching for a specific kind of tool, does something like that exist? Hi everyone.Due to the fact that I am more and more getting into audio production and the like, I am searching for a specific tool.I have quite a lot of sounds around and i need a tool for fast reviewing them. To put it into an example, I open a folder with the tool so I can quickly skim through the sounds, hearing them as I go through the folder so I don't need to open every file with VLC or another player.I know that studio recorder had that feature for wav files, but the problem is that quite a lot of sounds are MP3, flag and so on.So, is there a tool supporting those file types for quickly reviewing sound? Or is there another possibility on how I quickly can find matching effects?Greetings Moritz.

Re: Land of Livia: An IOS game which has been made accessible
Re: Land of Livia: An IOS game which has been made accessible You don't have to start cutting as soon as you hear the first tone. That is just the starting point which in turn triggers a tone. This will also happen when you do a cut, the arch will reset to it's starting point and trigger a sound, which again you don't have to cut. You can simply sit there and gather a Rhythm or counting if you prefer of when the time to cut comes around. So for example, you pay 200 gold and you hear a tone. Sit there and listen to it go around for a few times and be ready to take your first cut. Once you perform your first cut it will sound like a double tone because the arch is resetting, but you can again sit there and get the timing, letting it go around a few times. Repeat this until you have all 3 cuts. If you are still having trouble picturing it, it's like you are looking at a giant wheel on it's side with a semi circleular arch hump on it. You have a button to try to stop the wheel completely between two static vertical markers on the ground. The more of the arch you get between the two markers )percentage), the better the cut.

Re: If there would be a way for getting your sight back, would you do it?
Re: If there would be a way for getting your sight back, would you do it? At Orko, I can't recall what the title of that book was. I know I got it from Bard, what was Web Braille then, so it's possible I could track it down again, but it would probably take awhile.As far as driving goes, it has definitely been something I've yearned for extensively. While I'm not quite as skeptical of self driving cars as I used to be, and in fact, if they provided me with greater independence than I have now, and I could actually afford such a thing, which, let's face it, both prospects are long shots, I would be willing to see what they can do. However, it could never replace the actual experience of getting behind the wheel, and knowing that I am essentially controlling this powerful machine that can be the source of pleasure, pain, and everything in between.When I was younger, I constantly dreamed of packing everything I owned into a car, or at least my most prized possessions, and driving off to parts unknown. I would imagine every detail, from the songs on the radio to the purr of the car's engine to the scents wafting in through my open windows as I zoomed along, untethered by any expectations, troubles or hindrances. When I was too exhausted to continue, I would simply stop where I was, and attempt to make the place I had found my home. Even if I had to literally live in my car for awhile while foraging for that burger flipping job that is so elusive to us blind folks until I got on my feet, I would be satisfied just knowing that this was my creation, my doing, my wants, my needs. I wanted this so badly at times that the pain I felt was physical.Then, almost four years ago, I met someone who changed my perspective on many things, and one of the things he showed me is that you don't need to be alone to bask in freedom, or to hope for a better life. I still have that fantasy sometimes, particularly now that he's gone, but the allure of the car and all it represents doesn't have quite as strong of a pull on me as it once did.I do wonder what my life would have been like had I been able to follow through on such a lifestyle, of course. Perhaps it would have ended terribly for me, I have no idea. It could have been the best thing that ever happened to me, or I could just be shrugging my shoulders and saying meh. In any case, even though sighted people have often tried to make me feel better by saying that it's good that I don't have to waste my money on gas, fight with assholes in traffic, or deal with the anxiety that comes with unexpected and costly repairs, I'll always be haunted by that what if?

Any MLB the show players around? I have some questions Hey everyone.So I don't know why this came into my head again, might have to do with the spring season coming up again, I want to get into MLB the show games again, well, as far as this is possible anyway.I know that there are some accessible ones, I think up till the show 2011, but I might be wrong on that.Also, if possible, I want to play the season and road to the show modes, I think they are called that way, and I am wondering if this is even possible. Because I have the worry that for example the season mode has a sort of calender view where when you hit on the wrong date, the games till this date will be simulated, and I don't want this to happen.I currently have a psp at my disposal, but it should be possible to pick up a ps3 if the need arises.So, put together, my questions are, what is the most accessible version of MLB the show as a fully blind person, do the season and road to the show modes work?Also what I have noticed, with some games on the PSP, I noticed when I save my progress, that, when I would restart the system and the game, the progress wouldn't have saved, this happened in the NBA games, but I am not sure if there are also other games having this problem.Thanks in advance.Greetings Moritz.

Re: Text Map
Re: Text Map @gjp1311, I wouldn't necessarily go for an auto travel option. Visually impared players like mazes and navigation as much as anyone else for a challenge, and a game that gives you the tools to complete a challenge is generally more fun than one which just does it for you. For example, if I find a locked door in a dungeon and then later find a key, I'd much rather have to think "oh where the hell was that door!" and then find it again myself than just hit one key and travel to it. Thus, I'd prefer if there were tools like a coordinates system, "have I visited here before" type of command and , and a way to scan around you and get an idea what was where in terms of rooms. Still it's your game and if areas are large enough auto movement might be the only way, prticualrly if the game doesn't have coordinates.I'm afraid defender I disagree on use of spacial maps, at least without a touch screen, indeed they're one thing that work far better on Ios than on a desktop, since even with nvda going up a line reads the entire previous line, not just the previous letter. And anyway, the way that people process sound and data is entirely different, thus maps of patterned letters which to a sighted person give the chance for a full visual scan and overview, to a visually impared person still need reading and decoding bit by bit, so you might as well just give full information anyway rather than trying to mess around with letter codes. E.g if a sighted person is playing a roguelike and sees a greather than symbol and lots of lines, they can intuit a route from their current position to the stairs since mentally they convert and associate greater than with stairs, where as a visually impared person has to A, remember what the symbol means when it is spoken then B, work their way around the map, interpreting each symbol on the way in small bite sized chunks of information before they can intuit the route. If an overview is given I'd prefer it to either be a relative basic overview such as telling you what quadrent of the map your in and where salient features are, or just an overview based on your current location, for example a scan command which let you view the contents and exits of given rooms around your current location.

Re: Text Map would be cool if you could press a key and open a top down map view, even if just for the quadrant, with a dialog where pressing left right up and down would show you different rooms, with letters indicating the type of room, kinda like a spreadsheet.I'd say just make it work with screen review and leave it at that, but not sure if you can go left right up down easily with the narrator or Jaws virtual cursors in the same way you can with NVDA, so maybe some kind of basic text box would be better.something like:-NMNIINNMMNIQINNNMIIINNN+This represents a 5 by 5 grid, with (N) standing for normal room, (M) for room contains a monster (I) for room contains an item (Q) for room contains a quest element and (+-) for up and down staircases respectively.You can indicate the map borders by making a standard windows ding when you hit the edge, much like in word pad, and change or add symbols as your game requires, such as (P) for passage or (T) for trap, or by removing the (M) for monster on a higher difficulty and replacing it with a (?).This also has the added benefit of working with a braille display, which some blind people still like to use, especially for text games.

Re: College Degrees and Employment
Re: College Degrees and Employment @leibylucw, unfortunately I've met too many people in the Uk with a degree in computer science who have had terrible trouble job wise, maybe the degree is more common, or maybe it's that some universities are better than others, I was quite appalled when I found someone had supposedly done a degree in computer science and when I asked them what programming language they preferd they didn't know what I was talking about .Then again a separate problem in the Uk is the fact that in the mid eighties the government decided to up the number of people with degrees by making all technical colleges have the status of universities and hnd diploma qualifications have the status of degrees, which means unfortunately in the Uk your standard and type of teaching for a given qualification can vary pretty hugely, especially when a lot of places are offering degrees in fairly random, frequently made up subject that don't require much work, I famously heard of someone who took a degree in train spotting, and standard joke is the amount of lager louts who take degrees in "sports science" as an excuse to watch lots of football . This means that a degree, even a degree from a prestigious university is on paper no more valuable than a degree which took someone a small of work to get. This trend might fall off with the increasing price of higher education since I doubt that people who aren't serious would try to stump the money or get a lone to get a degree, which should theoretically cut out the pointless degrees and make good degrees more valuable, though in practice it is just resulting in fewer people going to any! unviersity at all and employers caring even less about degrees, then again that is a social trend in general since if higher education is about stimulating individual thinking, that is not what most people in the prophet machine want of their employees anyway, and so the world of huxley comes ever closer. @Afrim, I can't speak about the quality of your teaching, but I'm afraid that just sounds like how university is. In my degree I did six modules a year on different aspects of philosophy, Each week we got one lecture per module, and each fortnight we got one seminar, which meant an average of six lectures and two seminars a week.The seminars were there to discuss in smallgroups with a professor and work out the various arguements. The lectures were meant as an overview of the salient aspects of the field, each also came with a reading list which listed materials we should go and read privately in each subject.For each module, we had to write one 2000 word essay a term, an essay for which we usually have had to have read at least five or six different sources (papers or chapters from books), and in most subjects the essays counted towards our final mark for the year. In the third term we had one exam per module meaning six exams, each exam requiring us to answer two or three questions, usually on whatever we'd written the essays on. So the lectures and seminars gave us a broad overview, our essays allowed us to specialise to a limited extent, and the exams we were supposed to argue in a structured manner and show we'd understood the subject (which in a subject like metaphysics or logic could be quite interesting). In the final third year we did only four modules (each with exam and essay), however for the last two modules we had to write one ten thousand word dissertation on a subject of our choice, well ten thousand words for the actual dissertation, usually a couple extra thousand for the bibliography, since we were supposed to show we'd read extensively (I think my dissertation's bibliography had about 20 different things on it). And if that was bad, the masters was even worse .I'm not sure what's happening at your uni or why your finding things problematic, but was how mine was. the odd thing is I absolutely loved! it! the work, the reading, the lectures, it was the only place in my life I've been a fully accepted part of a community and if you offered me to go back I'd do it in a second, essay deadlines and all! .

Re: join the new blind fun zone forum and have, well, fun
Re: join the new blind fun zone forum and have, well, fun @simba I believe the old version of the zone was run by Jage from Blind Bargains. It's been run for 15 years, but unfortunately the guy shut it down. It had all sorts of things like games and boards and the like. Katy/Eliza/whatever you want to call her is Microsoftsam, the person who posted this topic and made the new version of the zone, but nobody wants to join it because she goes around insulting people on Twitter and we think that she's gonna do the same thing on her platform. She already broke one of her own rules, so it's best that nobody wastes their time with the forum in my honest opinion.

Re: on the fence about an ipad/tablet
Re: on the fence about an ipad/tablet It all depends on what you want to do with your tablet. If you want to use iOS or Android, get a tablet running either operating system. If you want to use Windows tablets, that will work as well and might benefit you more than an iOS or Android device.Remember that these Windows tablets are going to be running full Windows, which gives you far more possibilities than an iOS device. I'm hesitant to say whether it would be better than Android, considering how open the platform is. If the tablet has USB ports, the sky is the limit as to what you can do. I know some of them are powered by Atom processors, but I've been using the GPD Win and for what I do, Atom is just fine.Microsoft is building ARM support into Windows. This means we could have really power efficient ARM tablets and possibly smart phones that are capable of running traditional Windows software. That's going to give iPads and Android devices a run for their money. I wonder why they didn't port full Windows to ARM from the start?

As soon as I double tap it immediately gives me a new ding sound, which, is fine when I'm playing on my keyboard. I have a reaction time of 0.2 seconds on it or something. It's a different story on iOS however. It takes slightly longer to double tap so I always make about a 44% cut if the game decides to do the sounds back to back. If you want, I can explain it in more detail, but please, please add at least a one second delay in between each sound.

Re: `Cosmic Rage, an all new, all awesome Space MOO from Nathan Tech!
Re: `Cosmic Rage, an all new, all awesome Space MOO from Nathan Tech! Hello, everyoneFirst of all, I invite you all to log in over the weekend, because we have some super events going!Next, I bombard you with some of the best changes so far to the game:Wednesday, 21 February 2018 20:15 Lara Stardust: a mission a day keeps the vacus away, says stormy white scale. That's perhaps, why, a new mission is released! Called prisoner breakout, your task is to head into a vacus sector, clear the space, and then dock to a transportation station. Here, you must kill all the guards, and rescue the people. People range from between 100 and 300. The station is a transport station, that is teleporting people to a vacus holding camp at a rate of 5 per 15 seconds. Every 15 seconds 5 people are lost, and another mothership joins the battle. You will need hacking skill of level 3 or higher for this mission. To rescue the people, type rescue. It's as simple as that. Enjoy!Wednesday, 21 February 2018 21:32 Lara Stardust: hello folks. Are you sick of the payment restrictions placed upon you by the horrible, mean hosting team? No worries! there's now a way around it. From the banking menu is a new item called substantial bank transfer. This will allow you to request for large amounts of cash to go from your character, to someone elses. Think of it like giving a cheque. Basically it will submit a request to us, tell us why you want to do it, how much it is, and then within around 24 hours, we'll either say yep, no problemo, or nope, sorry. Hope you enjoy. Hats off to dante, who coded the system. I just brushed it up.Thursday, 22 February 2018 10:23 Lara Stardust: hello folks, with my small additions this morning, I'm pretty happy to say the message board system change is complete. The only noticeable different you will see is how posts are presented. they are now a lot tidier, have propper formatting, save the new lines people put in, and you can trace a conversation back to the beginning. As you read through, the posts go newest to oldest, and you get a confirm to read another post each time. There are also two new IC categories: chatroom: for having general IC chats, rather like a piloting facebook, and pilot announcements: useable if you want to put something up like, "I'm having a party on my station on friday at 10, come join me.". Thanks and as always, I hope you enjoy.Thursday, 22 February 2018 23:45 Lara Stardust: hello folks! In order to reduce the amount of grinding required, I have introduced a new bonus curve for alts. It works as follows. Note that in the explanation below, main refers to your first ever created character: If your main character was active in the last 4 days, and if your alt is less than 50 percent of your main char's level, your alt is eligible for the bonus curve. The bonus curve gives the alt 10 percent higher cash and point payouts for anything. So, for example, if your main is level 700, until your alt reaches level 350, he/she is eligible for the curve. Full hats off to Dealen who inspired and came up with the idea, for this system. Enjoy and happy grinding, or something.Friday, 23 February 2018 22:47 Lara Stardust: hello folks! As part of a quick sweep I did through chargen I've made it slightly less hassle to pick items when doing your step-by-step setup.

Re: my dream, your nightmare Hello, everyone!Thank you again for your wonderful wonderful ideas and reviews.I can't repeat enough how much you giving me your time to do this makes me feel proud. Proud to be someone who can make a difference.Already, many features have been implemented that are turning Cosmic Rage around from the collision course it was on onto a fantastic and fiery future.I usually, and will, do this in the new releases thread, but I wanted to draw your attention to certain changes that came about because of you spectacular people.*All changes and announcements are now spell checked before they get posted*spam on twitter has been reduced*The home planets are now typo and spell check free, and others are being swift to follow*background checks have been implemented to help tackle the typo catastrophe*the website is being updated, so far with the activities page having been updated and the index page ripped out and revamped*trash collecting now has some random rewards that you can get*in chargen, the longer menus have been split, such that you now get a list of the 5 most popular, with an option to view the full list, and so reducing clutter and time*an alts curve to make it easier to level up * large bank balance transfers*better message board formats*and moreThose changes are all because of you guys,. I also have some personal notes to deliver:@dark as always, your ideas are the boss and top of my list. some inspiring ideas and you can guarantee we'll be snatching them up.space combat: We are working on a tactical space combat, as I discussed in a previous thread a while back, including line of fire, big ship sizing verses small ship speeds, ETC. To ensure absolute implementation with no hiccups though, we're taking it, very, very, slow, @nocterness:Again, some good criticisms for me to chew on and digest, so thank you for that. I must admit being more than slightly disappointed, both yours and madam nightshades names make me think of a god and goddess, and part of me was really, really looking forward to seeing if you guys were going to make a unique and exciting fantasy mud to really shake up the place. Often, I've noticed, space muds go through phases of popularity and, I sadly, think we're in a decline again, hence I was hoping... anyway, enough about that.I hope you find your Cosmic Rage experience to be enjoyable, both of you.Again, thank you everyone, and I'll do my best to keep Cosmic Rage to an exceptional standard.

Re: Prometheus: The Eternal Wars
Re: Prometheus: The Eternal Wars Without this mess the staff do there, and without them in fact (I know that sounds a bit crazy), the game is pretty itself. Sad that it doesn't have any good staff, even those who were there and left was using their power all the time, as I've experienced, for giving their characters a lot of advantages and the last, before most of them left, there was a military org opening and they were accepting only one race of two. That's, discrimination, in my opinion. I played this game a year and a bit more, and from time to time I return there just because memeries, but I wish there would be a better staff and all. Nothing personal, but what ruined the game was the staff, for every good action there were five provocating ones. Sad, the leaving and returning won't mean anything for those who already knows how's everything there and what's going on there. So the only memeries left, the game could be much more interesting and enjoyable.P.s. Not blaming anyone, just frownin when seeing another ruins of what previously was something good.

I think there's lava right at the entrance of that room because I kept hearing the sound for going back to the entrance and then Lillia's pained sound.

Re: College Degrees and Employment Vocational-related occupations seem to offer more of a promise for a guaranteed job, and therefore a stable income.I'm fortunate to be interested in computers the way I am -- jobs requiring knowledge about software, developer-operations, etc, are in high demand here in the states. However, many job listings I've found require a B.S. in Computer Science. This is a hindrance to those who are lower in socioeconomic status. By and large, college is still considered a luxury. Only a small percentage of Americans actually attend some form of post-secondary-level of education, and an even smaller fraction attend a college or university.

Re: Land of Livia: An IOS game which has been made accessible
Re: Land of Livia: An IOS game which has been made accessible The game is designed to eventually become where you can set a quest and forget it, but in the beginning it will take a little more attention. Trust me when I say that you don't want to rush buying the ship. Take your time gathering the gold a little bit and gather some gear and gems along the way. In fact I believe the intent is to slow you down from purchasing the ship too quickly to insure that you gain the necessary upgrades before setting sail, as the quests levels go up rather quickly from that point on. The closest to a set and forget money maker is the Jungle and Mine. Without quest time reduction they take quite some time to complete and reward you well. However if you can check your game often I suggest the Golden Sands quest in Smuggler's Cove once you unlock it. It still has one of the best gold per minute ratio of all the quests that I've seen. It becomes even better once you can reduce it's quest time to under it's original quest time of 15 minutes. The river also has a well rewarding quest, but until you can reduce it's quest time to 5 minutes, the Golden Sands quest is still the better of the two. Also remember to max out your Parrot and Compass as soon as you can, as well as take a trip down to the Jungle Outpost if you haven't done so already. I'm pretty sure the Jungle Outpost will be worth your time.

Re: Looking for MOO coders, builders, and ideas! This is the information we've posted in several places. We are still looking for coders, builders, and people with ideas. We want to know what you like with the currently existing games, what you wish they'd change, but they won't, new features you'd like to see that no one has. Anyone can connect, and let us know if you are there to code, build, or to just give ideas for features, events, changes, etc.Hello to all and thank you in advance for your attention:We have a project in the works we would sincerely appreciate your assistance with. for quite some time we have wanted to build a futuristic game set some 150 years from now. We have story ideas, a fairly sizable to-do list which includes a ton of features and content, a myriad of possible plans to generate a modest income, and a ton of desire to continue working toward an end goal that satisfies the reasonable and rational. the end result, we truly believe, can be achieved with your help and devotion. Instead of asking for a monetary donation, however, we're asking for a bit of your time.While we have 2 spectacular programmers working on our security, account system and other back-end features that have helped get our system up and running more efficiently than we otherwise could have done, we want someone to dedicate themselves to enriching our environment with actual game mechanics and features. At present our system is coded in moo and we'd like to keep it that way. While we currently can't offer you any financial reward for your services, we do hope to be able to do so and believe we can accomplish this as we enter a beta stage. We're being upfront about this aspect in particular, because we want no one to feel like they've been suckered into a scam or cheated somewhere along the way. We desire your time and talents, your understanding, and your generosity, as a group of gamers that want to make a game that blends both old and new concepts, creates a world that is enjoyable, and lives up to high expectations and always keeps giving its fan base more and more.Given all of the above, we intend to make no profit off of this platformI can't stress this enough. Any cent earned will first be put to server costs and the like, then to our coders. We walk away with nothing other than the public relations management, dealing with the devil, and encouraging you as much as we can, all the while giving you no time constraint, deadline or unreasonable request. All we want is willing hearts and open minds.Apart from coders, we also want to take on a team of buildersthese would be volunteers who are willing to put together content and drive the story a little further in doing so. there immediate task would include coming up with and building areas which could contain any number of things from non-player characters to shops, to the objects sold in said shops, to heavily described planets with roads and parks and houses and anything else imaginable. If you're a writer and you enjoy the various Sci-Fi worlds or simply want to take a stab at building one, this is your chance, as this part of the game requires no prior coding experience.If you feel you're who we're looking for, feel free to connect to seranis.net port 2018 with your mudding client of choice, create an account, and give us a shout!

They also said that they released their special edition episodes for free, though they're not on their website as far as I know, and they said the episodes will be payed again once Leviathan is relaunched this year.

Re: College Degrees and Employment
Re: College Degrees and Employment Hello, and thanks for bringing back this wonderful topicOn Monday, I start the last semester of my bachelor degree, and having been at university for two and a half years, I can say that it does more harm than good to the students who choose to pursue a major there.There are a number of reasons I could highlight to explain my above statement, however I will focus mainly on how university works, at least here in Albania as a way of explaining the deficiencies of higher education.The student, after graduating from high school, is offered the opportunity to apply for a discipline or major at university, based on his subject focus and GPA. If he is successful, the student goes on for three years with his bachelor degree, which is composed of subjects that make up the discipline he/she has chosen to study. The programs are well arranged; however, the amount of information you get per subject is by and large beyond your capacity, or, considering the time at your disposal, it can't be accomplished by any means. It's not simply about working hard or working wisely (these phrases often drive me up the wall); it is about processing, memorising, analysing and reproducing the information you have at hand. When you can smoothly manage to reproduce the information on a particular subject, only then should you be tested on that subject, but nowhere does that happen. Another point closely rlated is that the student does not have enough time to practice what has he learnt in theory. A student may read 30-40 pages of a lecture, and is given only two classes to bring out the knowledge he has gained. Only through two classes per week, (which we call seminars) can the professor assess the progress of his student. Of course, this is not true for all subjects, as some need more involvement by the side of students; however, the average is two classes. To ease the process of studying, professors frequently tell their students that they should focus primarily on the most important arguments, but how on the earth can they make a logical connection between arguments by reading only the main points? This is more like making him a computer-based mind rather than a logical mind that knows what it says and what it does. That is the tendency at university. I know that professors own and can use that knowledge, and I believe that most of that they have gained by reading, rereading, reading and then rereading again books after all the levels of studies they have completed. They certainly, and we too want to get the best out of university in terms of learning, nonetheless, I can't get how the student is supposed to succeed under such intensely tough pressure in such little time. This is the reason why I am more in favour of non-standard education, but sadly non-standard education is not recognised by public or private institutions. I'm completely disappointed by the university experience so far.

Re: Text Map Thanks to both of you!I've already have a system that lets the player know the exits from the current room he's in. I was planning to create a "auto-travel" to places the player has already visited once.I think I got the message. I'll try to improve these points.Thank you very much!

Re: shadow rine full voice version released
Re: shadow rine full voice version released Instead of steps, try and look at those things like little one-way ledges. You can fall off them, but can't climb back up the same way.It's been awhile since I've done this tutorial, and I do remember it giving me a little difficulty when I first tried it, so don't get discouraged. Eventually you will figure it out, I think. You may have to scan walls with the field viewer looking for paths to get you around the obstacle. That's generally the way to go.If you're hearing a crunching/crackling sound as you walk, that means you're right on the edge of a ledge. Try and listen to where that sound is oriented from. If it sounds like it's to your left, that means stepping left will probably dump you off the ledge. It's harmless, thank goodness, but it means you'll have to work your way around again.So now I'll outline a more complicated example.Say you're in a big square room. Using the field viewer, you know the door out is way up in the northeast corner. But between you and that door is a ledge (indicated by a very short "ush" sound when you hit it while walking). It appears to be blocking the entire north edge of the square room you're standing in (there's a wall on its left end and a wall on its right).So you use the field viewer, and lo and behold! you find a little gap in the west wall. Following it west, you find a north-south path. So now you're west of that big square, travelling north. You go quite a ways north and finally find a wall, and now there's a new path to the east.A few steps after moving east, you hear that crackling/crunching sound from what sounds like the south. Using the field viewer, you see that you've actually managed to get yourself up on top of that ledge...so whatever you do, don't go south. Keep going east. Eventually, you'll get the little high-pitched whistle of wind to tell you that the door is above you.And there you have it.I think the tutorial is a bit more complex than that, but that's the thing to remember. Look for gaps in walls, take them up onto ledges, and then don't jump off the ledge by mistake, or you'll just have to go around and do it all over again.

Re: iphone not accepting a two finger double tap to hang up calls
Re: iphone not accepting a two finger double tap to hang up calls ok guys, so I narrowed the issue. It does not happen when the phone is ringing. It only happens when it is answered. Also, waiting for speaker switch doesn't make a difference. Could someone tell me a solution to this if it is available? It is really annoying, and braking. I cannot hangup with the lock button at all, as pressing it doesn't do anything. Basicly, I have no way to hang up. Congrats to crapple for making such a shitty fucked up operating system.

Re: Text Map
Re: Text Map Hi gjp1311. Generally for screen readers, trying to display any sort of information in a spacial way doesn't work, because screen reading programs actually speak the text. For example if you wrote a three x three map like this: Corridor, pit, staircase, Room, pit, corridor, Room, entrance, pit.The screen reader would just speak all the words together in a line e.g Corridor, pit, staircase, room, pit, corridor, room, entrance, pit. Thus a person would have to mentally break down the list of things and put them into a map which is pretty difficult when you get to very large layouts. This btw is also why ascii roguelike games are extremely difficult to play since having to listen to your screen reader say dot hash dot dot dot at dot m dot hash line isn't exactly illuminating .Even if you include coordinates on the map you run into a similar problem, especially if the map is very large. what it's best to do, is have ways for the player to find out where they are and what is around them in the map from the room they're currently in.Thus, have a way to speak the coordinates of the current room, be told what exits the room has, and be told whether they've been in that room before or not.You could also include some ways of pinpointing specific rooms, if the player gains information throughout the game, so for example if the player uses a "detect monster" spell the player could be told "goblin four east one south" or if the player has found the xit they could be told Exit ten east seven north"You could even optionally include abilities for players to get the exact route to a given thing on the map, e.g "nearest fountain is five north, two east, one south, three west and one north" though this would be more a luxury than a necessity since most blind players are well used to working out routes from the basic directions given information about where they are and what is around them.Hth.

Re: on the fence about an ipad/tablet
Re: on the fence about an ipad/tablet As far as I've understood matters, the main advantages of an Ipad are that it A has a larger screen, and B, can do mostly all of the things that an Iphone can do in terms of running games etc without the actual phone bits and so is significantly cheaper.So no, if your a blind user and already have an Iphone there isn't a lot of point in the Ipad imho. As to tablets generally, personally if I need a computer to do computer things, e.g serious writing, web browsing, composing email etc I'll use my desktop when I'm at home, and my laptop when I'm not, so for me a tablet would be a little pointless. of course I could carry a bluetooth keyboard and even use my Iphone, but if I'm going to carry a keyboard I might as well carry a laptop, and Ios with all it's file restrictions is not an environment I like for serious computer work due to it'se transfer restrictions etc. There are windows tablets of course, but last I checked Windows mobile didn't have the processing power or accessibility of full scale windows, and you were still better with a laptop than a tablet if you want a proper computer on the go, though this might well change in the future and is likely something I'll reconsider five or six years down the line if my laptop goes bye bye. About android I don't know, but though I'd be interested to spend an hour or two playing with an Android device I don't know if I have the money or motivation purchice and learn one, especially with the number of android specific things it can do being low and the fact I don't exactly know how well it works for general computer stuff. So for me at the moment the major devices I have are my Iphoen 8, my windows 10 desktop and laptop, and my echo dot, and I don't have any immediate plans for anymore .
