Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game
Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game Okay I confess I'm a bit late coming to this one but am giving the game a try now, with a view to doing a db page. I have a hobbit inventively called darco at the moment, but I confess I am feeling a little lost. I've read the files on the webpage, and the newbie sign in the halls of mandos and the game does sound interesting but I seem to be running into a few things which are mildly confusing. First, are there any options to set to improve output for screen readers? I still seem to be seeing the ascii map. The one combat I did get into went okay, in terms of speed of text, but on the other hand I was only fighting a rabbit.I now unfortunately seem to be running into the same problem as I did with diskworld, namely I'm wandering around feeling a little confused not sure what to do. I have tried talking to npcs but saying "hello" didn't get much of a response from anyone accept uncle Gamgee, indeed I'm rather sorr y npcs don't interact more, unless there is some sort of greeting phrase or something that I am missing, I started in The Shire partly because I was hoping to run around doing jobs for hobbits, then move out to more wild teretory like Bilbo's tookish nephews. This means I also don't have much by way ofquests to do, or even skills to learn since I'm not exactly sure where guilds are at the moment, though by the same token there is more of the shire to explore. I also wonder if the game has a newbie channel or similar to ask questions of, I couldn't find anything in help.One thing that did throw me rather is the way the game does not respond to open doors with a direction command, eg, open n, and way that the names of exits are all things like open greendoor with greendoor as one word. Sorry if these are mildly stupid questions.

Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game
Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game if you type practice (prac for short), it will tell you all the skills you have learned and how many practice points you have left. You can always untrain skill and move your practice points around so don't worry, your decisions aren't final.)From Bree, if you leave by the west gate and follow the road west, you will end up at the gates of Harlond (the eastern portion of the grey havens). It's a long road, but it will take you out of Bree, though the shire, passed hobbiton, and then eventually to the Grey Havens. If you follow it further you can even end up at the Blue Mountains where Dain comes from. Following the road east from bree you will end find yourself near rivendell. I must warn you however that the road to rivendell is perilous and rivendell can only be found by someone who already knows where it is... (in other words, you need someone to lead you in there the first time) URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=310381#p310381 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game
Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game @luel Don't worry, the players who helped you out all understand newbies can miss some things. They're just happy you're there!@JasonBlaze While RP is certainly fun and encouraged, it is not enforced. PVP is a big component of the game. Also yes, you do have to pay some silver or gold when you rent, but the price is usually extremely negligible unless you're much higher level and excellent equipment. Basically don't worry about rent money, you'll have enough.

Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game I played the game for a few hours today.I can confirm the players are nice.I am now level four thanks to the player who helped me.If I understand it correctly, the equipment gets broken and it must be fixed in a proper shop.And after death the equipment must be recovered from the corpse.Can someone tell me how to set Mush-z to work properly with NVDA?NVDA keept reading the same text twice and the text was mixed up when I used the review cursor.I was having trouble with following what was happening and was missing things.Trying to talk with two people simultaneously was dificult, not to mention when someone else joind in.I am afraid some people are going to think I was rude because I noticed to late their message.It was really frustrating.

Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game
Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game Hey,RE SLJ: Great! We'd love to have you play again! You definitely don't lose your gear every time you log out. Your equipment is left in your corpse when you die, so you can get your equipment back then if no one else loots your corpse first. Your corpse lasts for a period of time long enough for you to run back to it and see what's left. (Often times your allies will loot your corpse and come bring you your equipment to save it from the enemy). The fighting between the forces of good and evil is fierce.You might have lost equipment before because you just quit where ever you wanted to. If you exit out of the game without renting a room at an inn/tavern then your equipment will fall on the ground. There are "rent" spots all over Arda, and basically this is to keep people from trying to escape an enemy battle by quitting. Usually, if you do lose your equipment, people are very willing to come to your aid and help you gear up again.

Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game
Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game Hi.I played the game briefly very long time ago. I think it was back in 2007 or 2008. I remember a very annoying problem that you need to find some new gear very often. I don't remember if you need to find some gear again each time you log in, or if it was each time you died. But many things might have changed since I tried the game.I remember the game as really awesome, but I don't remember exactly why I stopped playing. I think one of the reasons was I found it too difficult to find all my stuff again, but I' not sure.

Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game
Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game Hi Dark Chief Defenstrator,The reason I posted on this site is that a bunch of my best friends in game are blind and freaking love the game. They use screen readers and there are many options in the game to make it less spammy. I wanted to post here because they have a blast with it and when I checked the "games list" on this website it was not listed. Some of the videos are music videos and thus not super helpful, but a great deal more of them are commentary videos where what is happening is described and game strategies and helpful tips are provided. The clients they use which are compatible with screen readers are among the ones I listed in an earlier post, I know for a fact that Powtty works. Let me know if you have any other questions and hope to see you on there soon!

Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game
Re: Multi Users in Middle Earth - Text based LOTR Game Hi Rada1. Thanks for posting about middle earth mud.Fyi, this site exists to promote games accessible to blind people using sound and text that can be read by screen reading programs which speak text allowd. I therefore imagine youtube videos showing displays with soundtracks would be less handy, likewise, usually with web interfaces for muds or real time games it's difficult to pick up the incoming text with a screen reading program.On the plus side as you possibly have noticed, there are a lot of Vi mudders out there. There are a couple of Vi friendly mud clients that will output text to screen readers (vipmud from Gma games and mushclient are the top choices), and usually accessibility in muds is as simple as providing some ascii alternatives (especially when ascii maps are considered), and maybe a way to reduce combat text to something that can be heard and reacted to when using a screen reader in time. I do know Muimm h as had some vi players, so it wouldn't surprise me if the mud itself has some in built accessibility features already, though if you could provide details of such that would be helpful, particularly if we want to give muimm a database entry, (as we do with muds that provide accessibility fixes for players).. For myself, being a huge Tolkien nut this definitelygood, although I probably can't try the game out for a while as I'm going to be at my parents for my dad's seventieth birthday this week and won't likely have the time for much by way of mudding.
