Re: [Audyssey] Hobit and Lord of the Rings

[ari]

Hi Phil and Lisa,
I'll look at these, but would like if someone could also help me try them 
out, to find accessible ones, as I've already tried four inaccessible ones, 
please if someone could look.
The games are in the Interactive Fiction Archive, you first go to
 ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/ftp.ifarchive.org/if-archive/
Then you click on games, then on Spectrum, then on the file Melbourn.zip. 
These games were designed by Melbourn House.
Ari

Re: [Audyssey] Hobit and Lord of the Rings

[Tobias Vinteus]

Hi,
I know that PC versions of many games including those from Level 9 and 
also Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit are available from Home of the 
Underdogs at:
www.the-underdogs.info

However, that site requires visual verification. A few years back I 
remember someone on this list saying something about a special passwor 
dfor us blind/visually impaired people, that we could use to access this 
site.

I e-mailed the site owner asking  for the password but I didn't get a 
response. Maybe I should try again.

Their collection of text adventures (interactive fiction) is probably the 
best collection of so-called abandonware you'll find on the Internet.

Cheers,
Tobias

Re: [Audyssey] Monty updates.

He's limiting items because that's the way the original game worked.

Re: [Audyssey] The powder was

[Phil Vlasak]

Hi Karl,
No, the floo powder is only good for one thing.
That is why I did not allow it to be picked up.
There is another pot in Umbridge's office but it does the same thing.
spoiler
space
It takes you to the same place which ends the game.
It is sort of like the hole in the floor in Shades of Doom.
It teaches you that some things should not be messed around with!

Re: [Audyssey] Monty updates.

why limit items tom?

Re: [Audyssey] Rail Racer game pad issue.

[shaun everiss]

It depends.
I don't think there is much point supporting game pads that connect via the 
oldstyle game ports as usb has replaced all these.
And they were the first ports to go.
I here now that 3.5 floppies, serial, monitor and paralel ports are all history 
now although you still can install them.

Hi Tom,
A list of times for a lap should be easy to get from your beta testers.
Just disable all the other cars on the track and let them run a lap. Then 
compile their times and put the game player at the average position.

Re: [Audyssey] muggle devices in scw

Hi Nicol,
That was my thought when I put some muggle devices in the game, what would 
happen if you tried them out.
According to the books they should not work but I had another idea.

Try picking one up and locating it in your inventory and hitting the enter

Re: [Audyssey] question about maps in sound rts

Thank you very much for your help.

I have yet one more question:
If a flying machine is a unit that is available to be given, why are
there no facilities to build them? Are they strictly a test? Why are
they referred to as a "new login

Re: [Audyssey] Monty updates.

[Charles Rivard]

So, as for these burning ropes, if there is a room to my right, and one to 
my left, and I jump and climb down a burning rope and let go in time, then 
explore and discover that there is a key in that room that was to my right 
above, I cannot get back up to its level?  Thanks.

 Hi everyone,
 Recently I have switched over to using the mouse with Rail Racer.
 However, despite being told over and over again the mouse control is 
 the
 best way to drive the racer I feel like I can't maintain control of the
 racer very well. I either lean to far to the left or right, sometimes
 when using the mouse I'll bump the mouse the wrong way and I will go
 from 200 MPH to 50 MPH in a second which drives me insane, and I will
 get frustrated and press the left mous button instead of the middle one
 resulting in a head on crash into the jump.
 I have read and listened to Che's tips on using the mouse and try to
 follow them but I am clumsy and out of control with it. I can't seam to
 make the mouse do what I want, and my performence is terrible to what I
 can do with the keyboard. Last night I got so frustrated I nearly
 destroyed my mouse by driving it into my mouse pad like a missile. Any
 help please.

 Sincerely,
 Frustrated Racer

Re: [Audyssey] Monty updates.

[nicol]

Hi thom
Sounds great.
Just clarify the burning ropes thing for  me.   Lets say I walk on the
ground, now I hear a dripping ledge, now I jump onto the rope, I climb down,
now I hear that the rope is burning, now I jump to the left or to the right.
Let say I jump off to the left, kill a snake and walk right again, now do
you mean if I walk past the burning rope I just jumped off from, that I will
be killed?

Hi everyone,
This is just a quick update note for everyone. As of the 11/10/2007 test
build of Montezuma's Revenge the game now limits you to four swords and
four potions at a time. For example, when pressing the w key it will
tell you that you have 1 of 4 swords, 2 of 4 swords, etc. the potion
key, p, will do the same thing. That allows you to know how many you
have and how close you are to the maximum limit.
In addition, if you jump to grab an item such as a potion or a sword
which will cause you to have too many of that item Sapi will announce
that you have, "too many," and then the game will cansel the jump and
grab option leaving the sword or potion in place to get at a later time.
So let us assume you have 4 potions and try for a fifth one. It will
cansel the jump, and let's say you get injured in a room below that room
and use a potion. You can then back track to the previous room and take
down that potion you couldn't get before.
Also I have just corrected a bug with burning ropes. As of todays build
if you jump left or right and run into a burning rope it will result in
an instant death.
Just thought you guys would like a early heads up of some of the changes
you can expect in the up coming beta.
Cheers.

Re: [Audyssey] Rail Racer game pad issue.

[Thomas Ward]

Hi all,
 Just an update on my game pad issue. After my previous post I dug 
around in my still packed stuff,  from the move last summer, and located 
my Logetec Rumble Pad. The earlier game pad, a Gravis game pad, had 
issues. However, the Logetec Rumble Pad seams to be working fine. It 
seams to accelerate, turn, slow down, and work just fine.
I am wondering if anyone has experienced issues with game controllers 
non-Logitec, or if my Gravis game pad is on the fritz.

Re: [Audyssey] raceway -

[Charles Rivard]

Right.  That's exactly what they do.  They alert the driver to debris on the 
track, they tell the driver how far ahead or behind he or she is from the 
nearest competitor, they alert the driver to a flag thrown elsewhere on the 
track such as a red or yellow, and other important info.  I thought this 
would be a good thing to mention because, 1:  NASCAR uses them, and 2: You 
won't have to rerecord the announcements from the pit crew chief.

[Audyssey] Rail Racer game pad issue.

[Thomas Ward]

Hi everyone,
This afternoon I located my game pad, hooked it up, and tried to play 
Rail Racer with it. I set it as the default control, mapped all the 
buttons, but am having a serious issue using it.
When the race starts I will push the stick all the way forward and the 
racer accellerates extremely slow. I am talking about only reaching 50 
or maybe 60 before the racer hits the first curve. When on the keyboard 
I can have it doing well over 100 before it hits that same curve on that 
same track.
Leaning seams to work fine as well as the gear up, gear down, jump, etc 
buttons. Just the speed up and slow down control on the stick seams to fail.
Anyone have any suggestions as to what is the matter here? I know the 
game works fine because I played with it in Shades of Doom 1.2, LW, etc 
with no issues.

Re: [Audyssey] raceway -

[Thomas Ward]

Hi,
Oh, yeah. If you qualify as 42 on the track you are going to have a 
tough time getting into that lead position. You have 41 other drivers 
ahead of you determined in keeping you on their tails and eating all 
their dust.

Re: [Audyssey] raceway -

[Thomas Ward]

Hi Phil,
Ideally a time trial to get placement would be the best way to do this. 
However, in order for me to create such a feature into the game I would 
have to have certain data in hand like what is the fastesttime on record 
to complete that track, and what was the slowest time to qualify. Then, 
I could enter those times in the random generator to place the other 
cars on the track and place you amung them.
So for the moment the game will simply select a random placement of the 
cars, but if I should ever get the necessary data to make a time trial 
possible I would convert the game over to a true Nascar time trial to 
qualify for placement.

Re: [Audyssey] muggle devices in scw

[nicol]

Charles, I've been to the muggles studies classroom. I can't find a way to
do something with the muggle devices, that's why I ask. I will not ask a
question if I haven't been  to the muggles studies classroom.
When I press x on a muggle device within my inventory, sarah says: caution,
muggle devices do not work inside the castle.
Pressing  enter does nothing.

Hi Raul,
These aren't z8, though, they're z80, they won't open with frotz. Speaking 
of Text Adventures, is there an email list or group dedicated to them? I'm 
just asking because they're not discussed much on the Audyssey list, which 
is a great pity. The 2007 IF competition was held, and nearly nothing on our 
list? Anyway, am quickly going out to have a wonderfully large burger! Yum!

Re: [Audyssey] that nightmare creature in sarah

[Phil Vlasak]

Hi Nicol,
I know the game is over after she is kissed by a dementor, but it does not 
say that Sarah actually dies.
I leave that up to you to decide.
The clapping sound is Sarah's father apparating near her and then he speaks.
Or he should speak, "Sarah? Sarah, wake up."
The short tune playing is her loosing all her magical energy.

Re: [Audyssey] Hobit and Lord of the Rings

Most text adventure games I play these days are under Linux. It seems 
that Linux has some of the best game intrepraters out, but not everyone

Frotz is a good one for z5 and z8 games, and frob is good for tads 
games. Scare is good for Adrift ones, and agil is good for agt games.

Re: [Audyssey] that nightmare creature in sarah

Hi phil
Quote
 Since they are not really dementors I do not think they can kill you but
just shock you quite a bit.
end quote
No, the boggarts also kills sarah if she comes in contact with them.
They kisses her and then its game over.
Btw what sound did you use for the dementor?
If sarah comes in contact with a dementor, the first thing I hear is sarah
screaming, all right? That's easy to figure out. Then I hear another sort of
screaming sound, is that also sarah?
Then I hear the dementor/boggart kissing her, that I clearly understand. But
then I hear a short tune playing, what does this signifies? And then I hear
a clapping sound, does it mean sarah loose all her magical energy?
Btw say for instance sarah looses all her magical energy, not by a dementor
but just by all the other ghosts, will it make the same sound? Let me
rephrase, say for instance peeves  attacks sarah over and over until she
have no more magical energy left, will I then hear the same clapping sound?

Hi Nicol,
Yes the nightmare creature is the Dementor.
The  other creature that is not in the easy difficulty level is the Goblin.
In standard difficulty you get the Goblin and in hard you get both.

In the case of any dementor in the castle they are all boggarts and can be
defeated with the ridiculous spell.
 Since they are not really dementors I do not think they can kill you but
just shock you quite a bit.
But they can also be defeated by the Patronis spell.

Re: [Audyssey] Crash's spin on Raceway trailer

[Thomas Ward]

Hi Gary,
 Your racing suit idea sounds cool. Not however the realistic 
physical damage from hitting the wall though.
Last night I was watching the Nascar Craftsman Truck series race in 
Phoenix, on the Speed Channel and that one truck hit the inner wall 
pretty good. it left a huge crack in the wall. My wife said it looked 
pretty bad. Though Kyle Busch did a great job in taking the led and 
staying in it until the end.

As far as volume controls etc goes that all depends on how I do this. If 
I use wav files I can put in a feature for page up and page down to 
lower and raise the volume. If I use Winamp then I am not sure how that

Re: [Audyssey] raceway -

[Thomas Ward]

Hi Gary,
Yeah, it is not that difficult to create a flat database using an xml 
file wich holds various stuff like driver, sponsor, car owner, team, 
etc. An example xml database entry might look like this.



Dale Earnhardt Jr.
Chevrolet.
Teresa Earnhardt.
Budweiser.
Dale Earnhardt Incorporated.



As you can see from the sample above the xml flat database format is 
very simple to edit the entries in the nodes. You can do it in notepad 
or what ever text editor you like.
As for accessing the drivers actual stats such as standings, earnings, 
points, etc that needs to be stored somewhere safe. I would hate to see 
a gamer cheat by editing his or her over all score for the season to win 
the USA Racing Cup. There will be 36 races in all to win that cup and it 
is something that has to be earned not cheated.

Re: [Audyssey] raceway -

[Charles Rivard]

Good idea, Phil.  Different driving strategies are used based on where you 
start in a race.  It would add to replay value if you are randomly put into 
the field.  You drive differently if you are on the pole as opposed to if 
you start dead last, in forty second position.  This is where the race 
length also plays a critical part.  If you want to finish first, first, you 
have to finish.

Re: [Audyssey] raceway -

Actually, you don't need another pit chief, because NASCAR teams have hired 
spotters who are in the crowd, usually at a point where they get a good view 
of the track, who report to the driver if there is a wreck or other activity 
they should know about.  The radio is used just as your pit crew chief is 
doing.  HTH

Hi Tom,
Since There are 2 rows of cars slowly moving in a NASCAR start,
Does this mean in the game you may randomly start in the second row with 
cars all around you?
Or will you go through a time trial to determine your placement.

Re: [Audyssey] Some Rail Racer tips please.

Hi Mark,
Oh, yeah. NightRider is good with that wheel of his. I'll be getting a 
wheel and peddle set for Raceway pretty soon so I will probably get a 
chanse to try it out with RR soon. perhaps then my lap times and other 
stuff will pick up.
I had a couple of close ones with Sarah on the course a couple of weeks 
back, but NightRider etc are still out of my league yet.

Re: [Audyssey] raceway -

[Thomas Ward]

Hi Gary,

Quote
Nascars don't start races at a stand still.
End quote

I know. That is one reason there is no start engine sound in the trailer 
and the game. When the race begins it is assumed the car is already 
started, engine is warmed up, and the car is ready to roll the moment 
you put it in first and hit the gas peddle which is control for 
keyboarders and the gas peddle for those who will have the wheel and 
peddle set.

Quote
There are 2 rows of cars slowing moving and its up to the Flag man to toss
the flag of green if all cars at least running properly inle.
Usually the first few rolls of cars that come out of turn four will see the
flagman go green.
End quote

Right. When the flag goes green you will hear your pit crew say: "go, 
go, go."Which means the flag is green, and get your car in high gear and 
burn rubber down the track.

Quote
This does bring up a point.  certain points on the brack are lights for
condition of race and your crew chief should tell you what you need to do.
Like go high to get around a wreck.
End quote

Hmmm... That could be difficult. James North initially recorded the crew 
chief voice samples, and he made nothing of this sort. If we are going 
to get into this depth of detail with pit chief interaction then we need 
someone else to rerecord the pit chief voices and get a list of what we 
need. Any ideas here?

Re: [Audyssey] that nightmare creature in sarah

[Thomas Ward]

Hi Nicol,
A real dementor. As far as Sarah goes Dementor's are the most 
frightening creature she knows. That is why the Bogart takes the form of 
a Dementor in the game. Not only does it fit well with the book, but 
those creatures are known to take on the form of the thing you fear 
most. Which in this case is a Dementor.

[Audyssey] Hobit and Lord of the Rings

[ari]

Hi all, 
I've again found Lord of the Rings and Hobbit games, but again, I have a 
problem with .z80 files, not being able to find an accessible interpreter or 
emulator, could anyone please help? There must be someone on here who might 
have tried spectrum games? 
Ari

[Audyssey] that nightmare creature in sarah

[nicol]

I'm quoting from the manual
The Hard difficulty setting is for experts that can get through the game
quickly, and for those who are too smart for their own good. It has two
extra creatures stalking the corridors and one is a real nightmare.
Phil, if you think answering this question will spoil the game for me,
please say so. Its not my intention to ask for spoilers. AS soon as the  new
patch is available I'm first going to beat the game on easy and standard and
then on hard, but what is this nightmare creature you are talking about?

[Audyssey] Time to Get your mouse Movin'

[Ken the Crazy]

Okay, you fast action arcade lovers,
Wrecking ball beta 1 is out at
www.dti.us.tt
and has lots of new sound effects and bonuses.  It has ten levels and two modes 
of game play--classic mode, called Super Breakout, in which you start by 
hitting the ball with your paddle--not launching it as in previous versions, 
and Wrecking Ball mode where you launch the ball.  Nearly everything you do in 
the game other than checking stats and adjusting volume can be done with the 
mouse, but if you prefer the keyboard you can play too.  (Personally, I play 
with both keyboard and mouse.)
The newest thing, besides the modes and the fact that the bonuses actually work 
in this version, is that when the ball hits the ceiling, the blocks aren't the 
only things to shrink--your mouse-controlled paddle does too.
The manual should explain everything you need to know about how to play.
Oh, the bug where the paddle caught the ball is fixed--it only makes the ball 
move while it's moving so keyboard players don't have to worry about the 
unwanted paddle.
If you have ideas on how to improve the game, let me know.  There are more 
plans in the works, such as additional bonuses, but most of what I'll be doing 
is getting the TTS stuff out and replacing it with human speech--and oh yeah, 
I've decided to make it donationware--mostly because I don't have the slightest 
idea on programming licensing stuff and just don't feel like messing with it, 
so have fun.

Coming soon,
