Re: Best way to learn building gui?
Re: Best way to learn building gui? Sort of. I'll often work on small examples of things and learn how they function in terms of syntax and implementation, and then refer to those examples later if needed for convience, a quick copy paste or refresher for example. In the case of the example I posted, I pulled it from a folder of reference scripts for various things I use, or may use in the future. For placing buttons, it really depends on the use case and libraries involved. For example in Pyglet or Pygame I'll typically manually place everything, mostly because they don't much use things like auto-positioning elements. With wxPython some buttons i'll manually place geometrically, though for a lot of them I tend to rely on auto placement so they scale properly when resizing windows in relation to other things, or a combination thereof.

Re: two wrongs don't make a right, but three lefts do, what does this mean
Re: two wrongs don't make a right, but three lefts do, what does this mean It certainly would, though you missed the point: simply because someone reacted that way that time does not mean that emotion is a governing force in all aspects of their life in all cases. That's a hasty generalization. It simply means that in that case, it was the perceived way (to them) to right that wrong by committing another wrong in the opposite direction to right it. However they would get in trouble because society views that wrong as something separate, meaning it now has 2 negatives (the theft and the response) to deal with separately. Thus, society locks both of you guys up (another wrong, because that's the revoking of some human rights), but considered right because it's a punishment for your wrong. Or, it takes away some of your hard earned cash or forces you to do some free labor (community service) - both wrong because they are things that are not fair in normal context, but you deserved it because you punched someone in the face. Also, taking someone's time or money away for taking money away from someone else? That's what the thief would be dealing with.But it's not wrong, because it's a negative that punishes a negative. So it's positive!See? Take the situation, and ask the right people. The thief was right, he says. He deserved your money because you were an easy target, or he was in hard times, or hell... he was bored. You and everyone else disagree with that.You were right, you and your sympathizers say, because you exacted revenge. That's not what the LJS says though...

Re: crome book sound editing software Um no, not on the Chrome-side of things. Keep an eye on Goldwave for Android though.

So right now it is not accessible but it is in open beta, and I have been in conversations with them about this, and while they freely admit it likely won't be accessible at first release, there is definitely hope given the updates to the cross-platform sdk, and work being done.

Re: An idea that could make voice acting editing so much easyer. Oh, and bring a wireless keyboard or foot controller along while you're at it. You can then hit record without having to walk to your setup afterwords. Deide if this is really something you want to invest your time and energy in before investing in gear, though. And this is why an automated solution is a literal fantasy at best, and a disaster at worst. We already have plenty of examples of shitty amateur hour levels of production work for what is supposed to be pro advertising that gets aired in your Youtube ads or even radio rotation. The last thing we need is for major corps to catch onto this and not even have to half-ass their production efforts, as it will be all handed to them and with lesser money and resources going into quality control these days, it is going to sodomize the eardrums of anyone who could have their job potentially taken away by this future technology.

Re: Presenting Master of Orion, a space strategy game
Re: Presenting Master of Orion, a space strategy game I just wanted to check in here because this game keeps giving me hours of fun. I understand development's on hiatus, but I have a couple thoughts and suggestions. I have no idea how feasible these would be, but here goes:1. I'd love a way to filter enemy ships and planets by race. This could come in handy especially on big maps with fleets going every which way. It'd be nice if I could type something like "v f Meklar", or "v Psilon 6" if I'm in the middle of a war for example and want to find targets without filtering through everyone else's colonies. I find I spend a lot of time scrolling through lists looking for the next place I want to invade and this filter would help a ton with that.2. Similarly, I end up spending a ton of my time scrolling through all the fleets within my scanner range, trying to find out if any of my planets are being invaded. I don't know how this was set up in the original MOO game but I could see how part of this might be a skill you're supposed to learn. still, there has to be a better way than reading through a list of sometimes 30 plus fleets every turn until you hear one of your colony names show up somewhere. I'm thinking either an automatic message when scanners detect something en route to a player colony or, perhaps easier, another filter just for fleets headed to player colonies. Maybe that syntax is already there and I've just not figured it out? I'm thinking something like "v f a" (alert, approaching, I don't know I just haven't seen A used in the filters anywhere), but really any kind of way to see just the fleets enr route to my planets would be a godsend.3. It'd be nice to get a notification when a planet builds a missile bases the same way we do with ships. Maybe some people wouldn't like that but I really would.4. Now we're really in nitpick territory but I'd love to be able to adjust multiple production sliders with a single command. I sometimes find myself accidentally pulling production out of eco to build a new ship when I want to pull the points from tech research, or having my increased industrial production pulled from tech research when I want it pulled from ship building. I know I can fine tune this by setting each slider separately and I've gotten enough of a sense for how the computer likes to prioritize my production orders that these mistakes only happen occasionally, but they're still a pain. Rather than having a production lock, I'd love to be able to tell it something like "s e 15; i 30; def 5, t 50" or maybe even "s t -5; i +5." I don't really have a formal computer or math background so maybe this isn't possible, but if so it'd be really nice. Anyway, thanks for your patience with my ramble. If none of this ever comes to fruition, I'm content, this is a hell of a proof-of-concept and I'm super impressed you pulled it off so well, Still, a guy can hope, yeah?

Re: Retroarch is now accessible @cyco There is no alt menu to go into, when you start the program, you're in the graphical menu of RetroArch. Once you start it up, you can turn on accessibility like @cj89 said: press right, up 7 times, enter, and then right arrow, and you should hear the narrator say "accessibility on". If that doesn't work, try pressing the X key instead of enter. If that still doesn't work, there is the option to enable it from the command line by running retroarch.exe in the command prompt with the "--accessibility" argument, so like this: "retroarch.exe --accessibility". Finally, if that doesn't work, you can also try modifying the config file directly by changing the value of the "accessibility_enable" value near the beginning of the retroarch.cfg file to "true".

Re: Jeff Rutkowski's Site is Down
Re: Jeff Rutkowski's Site is Down All star Wars films are described on iTunes here in Australia, and now we come to a rather interesting issue.Not all of them are described on Disney plus.Netflix will tell you that it's not up to them to provide the audio description, it's up to the studio.Paramount is starting to describe their older films, I've seen a few of them on my Netflix.Pirates of the Caribbean I can't speak for, but I'm sure I saw them listed as having AD on iTunes here, all 5 of them.Disney plus, I haven't checked.Transformers, haven't seen any of the films, I prefer the cartoons from the 80s myself, but that's just my preference.The Herbie films, I don't know if they're all described on disney plus or not, I know the first one is because I got curious and looked it up.Now small studios will probably not have their films described because they would have to get the funding somehow.If you ever stick around to the end of the credits, you'll hear this audio description was funded by, incert studio and described by, disney uses delux to do most, if not all of their describing.Now, as for why disney doesn't have all their star wars films described, even though they're out there, well I'd love to ask them that question if I knew how to contact them.All they have is a feedback form that you can fill out in the app.They're not like Netflix where you can actually talk to someone.Netflix will try to get something described if you ask them to.If it's for something they're licensing and the studio has an audio described track available they may be able to acquire it at no extra cost on their license.The first three Durassic park films were described on Netflix here when they were available.So yes, I have seen older films with a described track on legal streaming services here.Sometimes it pays to take a look at the audio option when these streaming services add a new title, you might just get lucky.

Re: Bookrage's choiceofgames reviews
Re: Bookrage's choiceofgames reviews the only thing which concerns me as far as ratings go with the Cog ap, is that it seems those games towards the bottom of the list have often simply received fewer ratings, rather than less good ones. For example, choice of the petal throne had only 25 ratings I think, so was far down the list, where as many at the top had over 500. I also remember seeing last monster master way down too for the same reason, and as I said in that case, that’s a rating I definitely don’t agree with. Well speaking of ratings, I have now played choice of the vampire (well the first part anyway), and so here are some thoughts. I confess to being put off this one slightly by the obvious Anne rice influence in having a vampire game set in 19th century New Orleans, which is almost as standard as Transylvania these days, but I decided I shouldn’t let that put me off and so gave the game a try. I played a socialite vampire called Barbara (extra points for anyone who gets the amusement of Barbara the vampire). I also thought this time it might be fun to try and play something outside my own comfort zone and paly a social charming vampire, rather than my usual straight forward brute force or academic types, albeit still a comparatively nice natured one. My first problem however came with the stats. Whilst some stats, EG compassion vs hubris, or base stats like strength, agility and stealth were easy to get, others such as coloniability vs independence or adaptability vs anachronism I didn’t understand at all, There was no explanation on the stats page or in game.Similarly, some powers and decisions were just unclear, for example, I had no idea if your ability to talk to animals went with lore, stealth or mental powers. So, to begin with, I was playing a game where decisions were murky. Fortunately, there was comparatively little to decide, which brings me on to my next point. Yee gods this game was run on rails! So many of my decisions, I’d decide one way, and then the game would suddenly redact my choice entirely, or have something happen as if I’d chosen something else. I won’t detail all of these for fear of spoilers, but I will give one example. On one occasion I was given a girl by some local villagers as a kind of sacrifice. My options were feed on her, take her for sexual amusement, remain indifferent, or take her as my maid. I took her on as a maid, on the basis that she might be a companion and ally.My vampire was a straight lady, and though I did kill, I didn’t kill indiscriminately, plus of course I thought at the time, a well todo socially mobile lady would be likely to have a loyal maid.However, soon she kills herself. Why I don’t know, I didn’t mistreat her, and as per my over 75 compassion I wasn't a cruel vampire, . This then caused the people to suddenly start howling for my blood, even though the text told me I’d been ruling them fairly up to then, and with my charm and intelligence things had been going well.This is what I mean, all the way through these sorts of things happened, where the author plainly had one path to go, and I was seemingly forced along that path, no matter what I decided. Even romantically, I was playing a straight lady vampire who was interested in men, and though I did have one romantic option with a man, all the way through I was continually told how I was fascinated with a woman’s beauty, or was infatuated with a given lady. Oddly enough, this is one game where specifying sexual preference might have helped, or at least a little flexibility on the author’s part to let the player pursue their given interests, rather than just assume attractions at different points (I'm fairly sure the romance with a man was intended to be for a female character and would read as clunky if the character was a gay man).Another major problem I had, connected to my characters’ lack of ability to alter her own destiny, was that so much of the writing was dry and factual. If I play a game set in a historical period, I expect my character to interact with that period the way that a person from that time would, I want the sounds, sites, smells, the people that character meets within their own circle. I want my roman character tell me what larks tongues taste like, and my character in Victorian London to smell smog and hear the clatter of handsome cabs.Most of the writing here though honestly read like wikipedia Articles on American history, which army in the civil war advanced and did what, what general took what city etc. Often, I honestly thought “look I don’t care! About what bills congress has passed, can we just get back to the blood drinking?” This dry style also made it hard to care about what was actually going on, even when circumstances seemed bad, for example, I would’ve thought that anyone in a city about to be besieged would be more concerned about the army approaching, whichever political side they were for, than what the so and so bill or

Re: Bookrage's choiceofgames reviews
Re: Bookrage's choiceofgames reviews the only thing which concerns me as far as ratings go with the Cog ap, is that it seems those games towards the bottom of the list have often simply received fewer ratings, rather than less good ones. For example, choice of the petal throne had only 25 ratings I think, so was far down the list, where as many at the top had over 500. I also remember seeing last monster master way down too for the same reason, and as I said in that case, that’s a rating I definitely don’t agree with. Well speaking of ratings, I have now played choice of the vampire (well the first part anyway), and so here are some thoughts. I confess to being put off this one slightly by the obvious Anne rice influence in having a vampire game set in 19th century New Orleans, which is almost as standard as Transylvania these days, but I decided I shouldn’t let that put me off and so gave the game a try. I played a socialite vampire called Barbara (extra points for anyone who gets the amusement of Barbara the vampire). I also thought this time it might be fun to try and play something outside my own comfort zone and paly a social charming vampire, rather than my usual straight forward brute force or academic types, albeit still a comparatively nice natured one. My first problem however came with the stats. Whilst some stats, EG compassion vs hubris, or base stats like strength, agility and stealth were easy to get, others such as coloniability vs independence or adaptability vs anachronism I didn’t understand at all, There was no explanation on the stats page or in game.Similarly, some powers and decisions were just unclear, for example, I had no idea if your ability to talk to animals went with lore, stealth or mental powers. So, to begin with, I was playing a game where decisions were murky. Fortunately, there was comparatively little to decide, which brings me on to my next point. Yee gods this game was run on rails!

Re: TriadCity via MUD clients aaron77 wrote:I actually find the idea of a non-visual world fascinating from a literary perspective. Not only are MUDs biased toward sight, but I feel like the English language is as well, and I've never seen anyone try to create a world where vision does not exist. I've found plenty of short stories or books that feature blind protagonists, but they're still aware of what seeing is, what colors are, etc. So what would happen if the concept of sight wasn't even a thing? How would people live? What kind of art would they produce? etc. [...] I also love the concept of worlds within a universe. A non-vision based human race is only the beginning. How would you write up a world where whatever sentient race you played as could only feel their environment? or perhaps had all five senses, but another one, such as smell being their primary sense?Your thinking here is very similar to ours. We're intrigued by the same questions you pose: how would such a world be described and how would the characters function in it - and I love your comment about the nature of art. I think we're going to go ahead, on a small scale, with implementing a sub-world within the TriadCity universe where as you say the concept of sight doesn't exist at all. We'll start it small and learn what we learn, and if it interests people we can expand it from the initial seed.

Re: TriadCity via MUD clients
Re: TriadCity via MUD clients aaron77 wrote:The closest I've seen to this level of literary complexity would probably be Lost souls, and only in that it also contains a lot of subjective content. Characters only know what their skills allow them to know and sensory traits affect how much of a location is perceivable.Hi aaron77:I'm not familiar with Lost Souls, but from your brief description it sounds like a subset of TriadCity's implementation of subjectivity.TriadCity's room, item, exit, and NPC descriptions can all vary by the observing character's alignment, skills, gender, life experience, medical condition, attributes, temporary affects, and many other factors including objective ones like time of day, plus AI secret sauce. Which of these factors come in to play in any situation is under the control of world authors, who for the most part use them subtly. The example we like to cite is that your character and mine may enter the same room together, but find it described differently. Yours may find the fireplace warm and inviting; mine may find it harsh or even unsettling. This all depends on what the author of the room is trying to achieve.But we can also go nuts. We can impose hallucinations, one form of which attempts to model Schizophrenia. We can generate conversations only one character can hear, so the character appears to others to be talking to the air. Or we can change street names, or include threatening or frightening asides in room descriptions or convos with other players.BTW these subjectivities aren't limited to players - all characters experience them, including NPCs. NPC AI is appropriately impacted.TriadCity's code base is designed from the ground up to enable these transformations. The early MUDs were written in C, and we understand that some which are still popular today have continued on that basis. One reason we rejected C for Java was that our design goals were better implemented in an OO language. The code for the effects I'm describing is pretty straightforward. The real effort is writing a compelling world which makes use of all these possibilities.

Re: The Internet Communication Engine (ICE) by 0C
@3, know, its kind of odd. You would think that this, being such a featureful platform, people would be all over it. But that just isn't the case and I can't fathom why.@4, I'll answer your questions as best I can in order, however the manual does give very elaborate explanations to everything you could ever ask (besides post 3, that is, which only the company backing this knows, I'm afraid, at last I think):First: An example of an Ice file:// Every Ice file must have one or more modules
// This is for target language mappings to work properly
// and to enforce generated code isolation
// That is, module A is entirely separate from module B
// Additionally, modules are in namespaces in C++ and C#, packages in Java, and modules in Python, and so on
// Here, we'll define a simple command shell system
module CommandShell {
// An interface defines the various operations that are executable when this interface is created.
// An interface is created through a "proxy" (see the manual) and not instantiated directly
// Each operation (function) declared in an interface is defined in the target language of your choice
// For example, in C++, operations are virtual functions; in Python they are normal functions that do nothing
// It is the implementors job to implement these functions
interface Shell {
// Now come the operations.
// An operation is just a function that is called in the normal application execution flow.
// Actual execution is handled through remote procedure calls (RPC)
// There are two kinds of operations:
// The first is sent from client to server.
// Notice how there are no special keywords; the function looks like a normal function declaration
void sendCommand(string command);
// The next kind is from server to client.
// In this kind of operation, we use the "out" keyword
// to denote that the server is transmitting this data, not the client
// This makes the contract clearer to read and easier to work with in code
// Here, we define an recvCommand function that the server will call,
// sending back the output of the command and its return code
void recvCommand(out string output, out int retCode);
} // end interface
} // end moduleIf I put this in a .ice file and run slice2py on it, this generates the following class and function definitions:# ...

Notice how both methods raise the NotImplementedError exception. If you follow the "writing an application in Python" tutorial in the Ice manual, you will see how they override these methods in the server and client (respectively) and implement them, thereby eliminating that "NotImplementedError" exception because they redefined it.Second: you need .ice files because .ice files define a language-agnostic system for defining a client-server contract. The idea is: if you define your contract in this simple, easy to read language, you can transpile that contract into much more complicated (and generated) code that handles all of the messy details for you, then remplement the functionality you specified in the contract (the .ice file).

Re: Bookrage's choiceofgames reviews
Re: Bookrage's choiceofgames reviews the only thing which concerns me as far as ratings go with the Cog ap, is that it seems those games towards the bottom of the list have often simply received fewer ratings, rather than less good ones. For example, choice of the petal throne had only 25 ratings I think, so was far down the list, where as many at the top had over 500. I also remember seeing last monster master way down too for the same reason, and as I said in that case, that’s a rating I definitely don’t agree with. Well speaking of ratings, I have now played choice of the vampire (well the first part anyway), and so here are some thoughts. I confess to being put off this one slightly by the obvious Anne rice influence in having a vampire game set in 19th century New Orleans, which is almost as standard as Transylvania these days, but I decided I shouldn’t let that put me off and so gave the game a try. I played a socialite vampire called Barbara (extra points for anyone who gets the amusement of Barbara the vampire). I also thought this time it might be fun to try and play something outside my own comfort zone and paly a social charming vampire, rather than my usual straight forward or academic types, albeit still a comparatively nice natured one. My first problem however came with the stats. Whilst some stats, EG compassion vs hubris, or base stats like strength, agility and stealth were easy to get, others such as coloniability vs independence or adaptability vs anachronism I didn’t get at all, There was no explanation on the stats page or in game.Similarly, some powers and decisions were just unclear, for example, I had no idea your ability to talk to animals went lore, stealth or mental powers. So, to begin with, I was playing a game where decisions were murky. Fortunately, there was comparatively little to decide, which brings me on to my next point. Yee gods this game was run on rails! So many of my decisions, I’d decide one way, and then the game would suddenly redact my choice entirely, or have something happen as if I’d chosen something else. I won’t detail all of these for fear of spoilage, but I will give one example. On one occasion I was given a girl by some local villagers as a kind of sacrifice. My options were feed on her, take her for sexual amusement remain indifferent, indifferent or take her as my maid. I took her on as a maid, on the basis that might be a companion. My vampire was a straight lady, and though I did kill, I didn’t kill indiscriminately.However, soon enough she kills herself. Why I don’t know, I didn’t mistreat her. This then caused the people to suddenly start howling for my blood, even the text told me I’d been ruling them fairly up to then, and with my charm and intelligence things had been going well. This is what I mean, all the way through these sorts of things happenedd, where the author planely had one path to go, and I was forced through that path. Even romantically, I was playing a straight lady vampire who was interested in men, and though I did one romantic option with a man, all the way true I was told how I was fascinated with a woman’s beauty, or was infatuated with a given lady’s beauty. Oddly enough, this is one game where specifying sexual preference might have helped, or at least a little flexibility on the author’s part to let the player dictate their character’s preferences in the story. Another major problem I had my characters’ lack of ability to alter her own destiny, was that so much of the writing was dry and simply factual. If I play a game set in a historical period, I expect my character to interact with that period the way that person would, I want the sounds, sites, smells, the people that character meets within their own circle, whether they’re in Rome or victorian London. Most of the writing here though honestly read like Articles on American history, which army in the civil war advanced and did what, what general took what city etc. Often, I honestly thought “look I don’t care! About what bills congress has passed, can we just get back to the blood drinking?” This dry style also made it hard to care, for example, I would’ve thought that anyone in a city about to be besieged would be more concerned about the army approaching, whichever political side they were for, than what the so and so bill or the such and such case had said or had won which battles miles away. This also meant that in situations where my character was asked to take a stance on things like whether they supported one side or the other, I honestly didn’t know, since I frankly didn’t have enough of my character’s actual experience to base things on. On the one hand, maybe this would mean more to people who know more American history than I do, on the other, as a doctor who fan, I’m no stranger to historical fiction, and historical fiction set in periods I know nothing about, and generally like all fiction succeed or fail on the strength of their
Re: Where Can I Find Gekiransen Passwords+Last Few Characters
Re: Where Can I Find Gekiransen Passwords+Last Few Characters Ah, so it was his idea before Bokurano Daibouken 1 was released. Washing machine and train sounds using midi files? Didn't know that was even possible. About MM hosting his games, you can find 葉ちゃめちゃ大冒険 there, under the train simulator page. Not Dreamy Train, the other simulator he made. The second game (Unded Leceiart Sistart) or whatever it is, that's not on MM's website. Seems like this Yokojiko person likes making non-realistic games like me, wait until The Blank Game 2 comes out and we will see a non-realistic game! I mean, whoever heard of some random guy called Leefox suddenly appearing, inventing these sound attacks called 8 6 7 5 3 O 9 bombs (named after a song) and throwing them at people for fun? And no, the story doesn't stop there. After you beat the game, their is a part ware you basicly go through some allready existing games, but how I think of them. Spoiler alert for post game! You'll have to go through Yokotanku's dungeon (fight with Kissonen and Kuroro, play all those dodge games and rematch some Bokurano Daibouken bosses.) And no, I'm not using any of the recorded voices, probably one of the songs used in other games (not the versions from BK 1, 2 or 3). The attacks have the same names, but different sounds. Now it's time for me to go and look up how Kissonen and Kuroro work again, and fight Yokotanku to find his list of attacks, same with Yamizinn, unless all he has are Death Blow and Dark Sword.

Re: Where Can I Find Gekiransen Passwords+Last Few Characters Hachamecha Daibouken was first published around 2005 to 2007, stayed about 2 or 3 years and disappeared since the service provider for his website was taken down. I don't know mm still hosts his games. He also released a text game called Unded Lecaiaerd Sistert.Hachamecha was an unfinished game. We do not know what he was trying to make. We don't know when it ends, how it can be completed, blah blah blah, pretty much everything we might be questioning. I overwrote my save data from Tia Story 2 and ran the game. It loaded, but all of the party members committed suicide and the game ended. I don't know if it is reachable through the normal game play.As you can imagine fron the other game's title (unded lecaiaerd sistert), he is a very artistic guy (no one, even the developer himself knows what it means). He likes making realistic washing machine, air conditioner and train sounds using only MIDI! I repeat, using MIDI! And they all sound super realistic! What the!He is... a fat guy. Like a tank. His last name is Yokota. Yokota. Tank. Yokotank.Oh, that was a bit out of the original topic. Anyway, when I was first experimenting with 2d map and Gekiransen-style combat, I had no storyline plans, and I was terrible at it. We were chattering on Skype. Someone (IIRC, mm) said suddenly: "A game... where... where... Yokotank tries to eat everything in the world and the hero must save the world." That was, BK1. I don't quite remember why we decided to make Yamijin yokotank's supporter, but probably it was because Yokota had already recorded Yokotank and Yamijin voices for Gekiransen and we agreed using them.I don't know if Yokotank appears in Hachamecha, but yeah. We're not strict about the fact around there, in other words, we no longer remember.

Can the Open-Sourced GTTS Python Rapper be Compiled for NVDA I was searching for open sourced TTS engines after reading about Nuance's monopoly over the TTS industry, and I came across what I believe to be a python rapper that interfaces with Google text to speech. I was wondering if this could be made into an NVDA addon. I'm not sure how hard it would be since this rapper exports text to an MP3 file, but I figured I'd ask since I have no idea how this stuff actually works.
