Re: [Audyssey] Sound RTS Feedback and thoughts.
Hi Thomas, About writing maps, the instructions for multiplayer maps are at: http://jlpo.free.fr/soundrts/mapmaking.htm But the way to build single player maps is undocumented yet, because the language is not ready enough. For example, today, a trigger to say that after 80 seconds the computer 1 must select 1 footman located in a2 and send it to a1 is: trigger computer1 (timer 80) (order (a2 1 footman) ((go a1)(go b1))) I am thinking about using a more flat notation: add trigger owner computer1 condition timer 80 action order (a2 1 footman) ((go a1)(go b1)) end But even in this case the order command may be too nested. Maybe I don't have the choice. Or maybe I would use the fact that more than one action would be allowed and that the orders would be added in the order queue: add trigger owner computer1 condition timer 80 action order (a2 1 footman) (go a1) action order (a2 1 footman) (go b1) end Not too bad. Maybe I can totally avoid parenthesis. After all not everything will be possible, but just enough to have interesting missions with a balance between specialization and flexibility: add trigger owner computer1 condition timer 80 action order 1 footman in a2 to go a1 action order 1 footman in a2 to go b1 end Hum, I don't know. Or maybe I should go to the opposite direction and use a LISP-like notation, like EMACS LISP, using even more parenthesis: (trigger computer1 (timer 80) (order (a2 1 footman) ( (go a1) (go b1) ) ) ) Not very easy to write. But after all I don't really need the order command with more than one command. Well... The problem is that I can't change easily the language when I have documented it. So I will wait until it is good enough.

Re: [Audyssey] Audyssey ot group
I agree with the sentiment, there are afterall places for general chat, but quite often topics such as the philosophies behind sited devs making accessible games and the atitude of vi gamers themselves can spill over, and though i agree gaming should be the main focus of the list, and topics which are not at all related to gaming (such in fact as my favourites one), should be moderateed, when a thread (like the games dimention), thread goes beyond discussing merely games to lifestyle and ways of thought, if it is considdered too have grown Ot there should be a place for it to continue, the same way on many high traffic forums certain topics might be moved by the mods to a general chat area.

Re: [Audyssey] Sound RTS Feedback and thoughts.
Hi Cara, About the game interface, there are at least 2 kinds of selection: target and control, and there is a third selection: the order to give. Maybe some keys should be swapped, so it would be more logic, from left to right you would have fro example: select a unit, then select a target. But the order menu key is not often used once you know the backspace key that gives most of the default orders that you need to attack, repair or move. Difficult... So allowing the customization of the key bindings might be a solution, for I have already experimented a lot on the key layout, and I am still not really satisfied.

Re: [Audyssey] Sound RTS Feedback and thoughts.
(I have accidentally sent the email too early. Here is the rest of the message.) Playing in a single player map is different from playing in a multiplayer map against the computer: the former is an asymmetric map, with a relatively still opponent, except for scripted attacks ; the latter is a balanced map, played against an always too strong or too weak computer. So I hope it will be possible to write custom single player maps with scripted attacks (it's the more viable solution for single player games). I will try to write another bigger single player map as an exercise. About the 4 arrow keys for the menus (down and up to select, right to confirm, left to cancel), they already work even if the help message doesn't mention them. I will probably keep only the arrow keys. I am about to use more complex menus or forms, and I will have to define new keys for that. Maybe something players are used to? Maybe the default Windows keys? I don't know yet.

Re: [Audyssey] Sound RTS Feedback and thoughts.
Hi Thomas, Thanks for the feedback! Yes, the maps are really small. I especially realize this today because many bigger multiplayer maps have been made since the day I released the 3 single player maps. Even if you don't play multiplayer games, you can play on the multiplayer maps against the computer. This way you will have bigger maps to explore and much more resources to gather.

Re: [Audyssey] Megaman clone was Robot games
Hi Claudio, Currently Genesis 3D is written in C-Sharp, but I am looking into the possability of converting it to Java. The problem with porting Genesis to Java is Sapi support. I'd have to take away some of it's platform independants by including Microsoft Speech API support to support Sapi voices which Genesis uses for creating games.

Re: [Audyssey] Out of the games dimension
Hi Cara, To be honest I don't know. Some games like you speak of were not really my forte when i could see. I always gravitated to games with allot of action and violence such as Megaman, Double Dragon, Legend of Kage, etc... Which was a diference between my mom and I who shared the NES. Like allot of boys my age in the late 1980's I was only really at home with a game if I was tossing punches, kicks, head butts,and plastering some enemy or blasting aliens and robots with lasers. My Mom never said anything about it, but tended to go for games less violent.

Hi, I'd be willing to moderate if you needed or wanted me. and couldn't the subject start with OT so people know it is off-topic, or do you think that will clutter up the list?

Hi Corry, I probably will at some point.

Hi Nicol, There were several reasons Kevin, Raul, and I decided to ban off topic posting, but one of the main ones is that the list already is a high traffic list. We decided since the list was for gaming that we would focus the list on gaming only, and let listers go elsewhere if they want to talk about audio, programming, Jaws, Window Eyes, etc. nicol wrote: > Why do we need a separate list? > Why can't the moderators be a bit more lenient and allow certain other > topics except gaming. > Look how popular the topic of communication between blind and sighted > people is, it's a topic people chat about frequently. > What's the actual reason for limiting posts to gaming only? > What harm will it cause if moderators allow other topics than gaming? > --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Sound RTS Question for Mac
Thanks, I didn't know that. So, on a Mac, the F 9 to F 11 keys are used by expose, and F 12 by the dashboard. From something I have read in another forum, for example World of Warcraft replaces these shortcuts when it starts and restores them when it stops. I won't probably do this, for it is probably a bit complicated (and if the game isn't closed correctly, the keys are not restored in certain cases) and not absolutely needed for this game. One of these days I will put the key bindings in a configuration file, so they will be customizable. But there is probably already a solution for the F 10 key: during a game, Control C and Alt F 4 might have the same effect than F 10. Try them. In the future, I will add alternate keys for the F 9 to F 12 keys.

Re: [Audyssey] Sound RTS Feedback and thoughts.
Hi Cara, I know how to make a dragon in Sound RTS but the problem is finding enough gold to do it. Given the restrictions in the tootorials you can't really get enough gold to do it unless you cut spending on your army and put all that money into a castle and a dragon layer. Even then by ht etime you can create a dragon you are out of cash or you are being swarmed by enemies without money to put up the best defense.

Hi, Quote I decided forever ago I didn't like that little tidbit they stuck in their terms of service that pretty much says anything and everything that passes through their servers, they can claim official ownership to. End quote Yes, it is definitely a breech of the listers intelectual property rights. That is one of the reasons all of my lists are moving to the USA Games web server. I own the property rights to my software, and of course I allow the individual listers to have there own intelectual rights.

Re: [Audyssey] Audyssey ot group
Hi, I must say I don't agree with majority opinion here. There are plenty of other forums for chatting about other topics and such if they become worthwhile. I think the Gaming list should remain Gaming-related. I don't mean to sound like a snob here. I acknowledge that the point made earlier in this thread is a valid one, that we do have a community of sorts. It's focused on gaming for the most part, though. In short, I don't feel another list is necesary or a good idea. I'm sorry to ramble on.

Re: [Audyssey] Audyssey ot group
I have a solution to this, could part of say sales of blind games if all devs aggree or if some do anyway go toward keeping things going? Stuff costs loads here from us so I wouldn't donate much really however I am happy if some of the cash I spend on games goes towards keeping this site up. Naa we do not want yahoogroups, google maybe but not yahoo. Its ok however various people with spam issues including having their isps blocked by the yahoo spam filter lists are a major headake. On xtra we use yahoo as mail although I don't have an issue I know that some people on xtra or yahoo loose half their mail as spam.

Re: [Audyssey] Out of the games dimension
thomas, I absolutely agree with you, but to take a bit of a different tach on this situation; could the termite game be more of a takeoff on certain simple but highly addictive games that sighted players often play while doing something else?... I.E. I can't think of the name right now, but there is a game which is incredibly simple but crazy addicting where all sorts of faces come down the screen and you need to shoot at them and I believe, get three of a similar type to line up as they fall... -and that's it! The game goes faster, but that's about all there is to it. It's an incredible time waster! lol!... anyway, not having played Termite torpedoes, I can't really comment further on that, but am just wondering... Have an awesome day!...

Re: [Audyssey] Out of the games dimension
Hi Ari, The game I was mentioning is Termite Torpedo and is available through American Printing House for the Blind. The reason I don't favor the game is it is very simplistic. More what I would consider a childrens game than a game for adults or serious hard core gamers. However, I have always had high standards for games, and am hard to please. The kinds of games that I get really interested in is games with some complexity in them like Sound RTS where you have to manage everything from paying your army, aquiring enough food to support that army, and pay for upgrades and new buildings to better equip and support that army. Galaxy Civilization is another game I really really dig for the same reason. If I am not playing the entire civilization theme games I go for FPS games like Tomb Raider, Jedi Knight, etc that has puzzle solving balanced with intense action and drama to keep you going until the credits scroll. That to me is a good game. So you can see where I am coming from when I am disappointed by seeing sighted game developers writing a game like Termite Torpedo. The game is ok, but nothing for me to write home about. I just felt, maybe just me only, that the game was targeting someone of low inteligence or was designed to target blind children rather than blind adults with commercial quality game taistes. Whichever it was I felt that the game wasn't designed to be played by a blind gamer who wants more out of accessible game developers than word puzzles, card games, and so on. In fact, the lack of my kind of games was why I got into writing games in the first place. When I was losing my sight I realised commercial game developers were not going to make their games accessible. When I discovered the accessible games market via the Audyssey magazine around 98 or 99 I was disappointed that our comunity wasn't actively trying to make 3D FPS games and other games I was use to playing for the PC. Those old Audyssey mags I was reading were talking about text adventures etc and I was so turned off with accessible gaming until GMA released Lonewolf and Shades of Doom which all comes back to the original issue that accessible games are not equal to sighted games. That brings us right back to the original issue of this thread that it is hard for blind gamers, using accessible games, to attract a sighted player to play with them. The lack of graphics is certainly a factor, but for me it was the lack of features, lack of familiarity, and lack of meeting commercial standards I was expecting to find. For example, the Jedi Knight games had full featured cut scenes, and they were in true 3D worlds. You would have to jump or use an elevator to get to another floor with in the game level. You could cross bridges or jump off of them to get back down to the main floor etc. Then, after playing all that to find out that the blind games didn't have anything like that is quite a disappointment from someone formally sighted turned blind. ari wrote: > Hi Thomas, > What game is this that you're talking about where you thought it wasn't > developed properly and why?

Re: [Audyssey] tomb raider
Hi William, Well, I hope Tomb Raider is challenging, but the games are more about puzzle solving and adventure than actually combat and battle. As for Montezuma's Return you haven't seen levels 7 through 11 yet and they are far more challenging than the first six. Unfortunately, do to difficulties I am not releasing levels 7 through 11 in Beta 9. william lomas wrote: > hi sounds awsome. of course though we still want it to be a challenge > as i find montyzoomas too easy smile > if we can ust as in monty order it in advance and test beta then i > hope too > --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Megaman clone was Robot games
Hi Bryan, Thanks. Though, if i actually do the Megaman clone I'd probably just use the existing Monte engine which has built in Sapi support etc already to go. Someday I'd like to port the Monte engine to Java, but at the moment after spending 18 months building it from scratch I hate to start over on the engine, and I would at least like to sell a few games using the engine before switching to the new platform. Though, I have started my rnd on the new game engine in Java. Who knows when the new multiplatform engine will be ready, but it is in the works for all the 2.0 versions of the games.

Re: [Audyssey] Audyssey ot group
Why do we need a separate list? Why can't the moderators be a bit more lenient and allow certain other topics except gaming. Look how popular the topic of communication between blind and sighted people is, it's a topic people chat about frequently. What's the actual reason for limiting posts to gaming only? What harm will it cause if moderators allow other topics than gaming? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of ari Sent: Saturday, January 19, 2008 6:44 PM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Audyssey ot group Hi Raul, Cara offered to set it up and moderate, that's great.

Re: [Audyssey] Audyssey ot group
The point here is that it's for *this* group's mmembers mainly. this approach is taken by a number of mailing lists so they have companion lists so that people who dont' want to read a lot of extraneous posts, like this one your'e reading now, can subscribe to the more focused list, and others may sub to the more general OT list but still be plugged into the similar topic / line of discussion?... Does this make sense?... Have an awesome day!...

Re: [Audyssey] Sound RTS Feedback and thoughts.
Hey Thomas, and Jean-Luc, and good morning All!!!... Happy Saturday!... thomas, wow, that's funny, I too, started playing Sound RTS this past week! lol! Go figure! Great minds!... anyway, you can actually create larger maps yourself, and I do believe that you may also be able to play on multiplayer maps in single player?... I haven't checked this out yet, as I myself, am just starting tut 3 (having just started playing thursday) As far as the interface goes, I tend to agree with you, however I do really like the fact of being able to travel the map using the arrows. One thing I'd say though, is that the idea of the tab key is really throwing me off in the sense that I'm expecting to be able to control the element I tab to. I.E. tab to the town hall and be controlling it. this is giving me pause a bit during gameplay, and is something I'm really having to get used to... It's just slowing me down a bit is all... I also wish there was a way to reassign at least the action key as it seems I'm always getting confused between switching the action and targeting that action. lol! (partially the blonde thing lol!) anyway, other than that, I find this game to be really great! I especially like the cute lil sounds of the men building buildings and chopping down trees! lol! It's way cute! Jean-Luc, as Thomas has already said, this is also just an amazing game in the sense of the whole strategy element, and how well you've implemented it. As I've said before, thanks very much for your time and effort in this! YOU ROCK!!!...

Re: [Audyssey] Audyssey ot group
I've been thinking this over a bit, but I'm still not decided. There are several things on my mind here, so keep reading if you are interested. On one hand, I can see how members of this list can stick together for discussing off-topic questions which are not game related, yet the familiarity of each member is there for general chit-chat. However, the other thing I'm seeing is why would I want to contribute to the thousands of lists which are already out there for general chat, audio configuration, blindness positive thinking, ETC. Personally I do not want to moderate another list, so if I did create one on audyssey.org, I would just be the admin and not the moderator. Furthermore, if I add another list on audyssey, due to the current list restrictions set in the hosting package we are using, there would be a limit of how many people could subscribe and there may be a limit of how many posts per day which could be sent. I personally do not care for GoogleGroups or YahooGroups either, but it's starting to seem like that is my only reason why I would add another list. The other thing of course is for audyssey.org to move to another web host who has additional list support, but this could mean an increase in cost for me. As you all may or may not know, I'm the one paying for the audyssey.org hosting bill as well as the mailing list as well as the domain. I am certainly not complaining and have done this willingly, however, to date, I've only received a very small amount of donated money to help off-set the cost. I'm not saying that I'm using this list request as an excuse to get more money, but to be perfectly blunt here, if gamers want an extra list without restrictions, and don't want to use the fugly googlegroups or yahoogroups, then helping to off-set extra costs would be a great way to do this. Even thinking of the numbers like this, If each Audyssey member donated just $5 per year. That is the cost of a meal at McDonald's, heck, now-a-days, after taxes, you usually pay more. But in any case, just $5 from each member would more than pay for a better hosting plan and would help to register the domain for a lot longer. Just food for thought. -- Raul A.

[Audyssey] anyone familiar with mlb 06 the show
I posted a while back that I had picked up a playstation 2. My cousins tossed me a copy of mlb 06 the show. I'm enjoying it and will deffinetly be recording a gameplay demo at some point. My only issue comes with having to actually move the ball with the left anologue stick to position it in the strike zone before I throw. Is there a way the pc will automatically do this, or am I stuck. I didn't see any option anywhere, and I'm not sure if anyone is familiar with this series at all.

Re: [Audyssey] Sound RTS Feedback and thoughts.
Hi thomas, Yes I see what you mean. Also the other point as well is the likes of draggans make the game far to easy. You may as well just make a ton of draggans and go off and burn everything. The map does need to be bigger. Far bigger to my mind. I like to explore. I like to find my enemy not to know where it is every time. That's 1 reason why I loved cossacks so much. But maybe I've been spoilt by games like that I don't know. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thomas Ward Sent: 19 January 2008 04:16 To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: [Audyssey] Sound RTS Feedback and thoughts. Hi Jean'Luc, As a relatively new player of Sound RTS I would like to offer my thoughts and feedback about Sound RTS. After nearly a week of playing I have really grown to enjoy this game immensely. Though, there are afew things I think would improve the game for those just playing in tootorial mode. First, I really like the strategy elements the game provides. Not only battle field tactics but having to plan ahead on how you are going to finance the upgrades, army, and defences. It puts the gamer in a position to ask if he/she wants to upgrade to a castle or build something else more immediately useful instead. It is elements like this that makes the game truly above most Audio games out there. Second, I have beaten all three tootorials, and I am left with the feeling what next. Part of my disappointment in beating the game is the game currently only has a 3 by 3 playing area. Once you use up all the gold and wood in your posession and crush the enemies in the northern areas there is no continuation from there. I would personally like to see a much larger playing map, such as 10 by 10, with the ability to build both sides up to having castles, dragons, and catipolts, and having full skaled engagements on a larger skale in tootorial mode. Perhaps this is possible in online play, I don't know, but as someone who is not always available for online play I'd like to see this become apart of the tootorial mode. Third, as a personal preference I would like to be able to up and down arrow through the menus rather than tab. I am not sure if anyone else agrees with me but using arrows rather than tab seams much more natural to me than tabbing around the screen to find the map or tootorial I want. I guess I'll stop here for now, but I did want to express that I really think Sound RTS is off to a good start. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Out of the games dimension
Hi, I guess the best answer I can supply is practice and experience. Plus being educated at a university helped allot in understanding the fundemental design and methodology behind programming software for a living. You see, once you understand the fundimentals behind how a program operates, and the coding conventions on how to build applications you can really program in any language once you get up to speed with its syntactical structure. There are just basic building blocks like variables, objects, classes, if statements, etc that are common to every single programming language. They just might look a little different, but once you understand them programming apps in other languages isn't so mysterious. For example, look at the two variables below. // C/C++/Java style variable. int x = 1; ' VB style variable. x As Integer = 1 Both variables are identical in function, purpose, and even name. The only difference is how the variable is created. in java/C/C++ the int data tuype is specified to declare the variable. In Visual basic the As Integer datatype is used to declare the same variable. Once you know what an integer variable is and how it works it doesn't matter if the language declares it int x or x As Integer as long as you know how to use it in the programming language you are using.
