Re: [Audyssey] Magazine questions
Hi. You could do html without really adding more work. It appears you have been using text symbols like +++ to indicate a new section. Well in html h1 isn't a whole lot more to type, course you have to end it with /h1, as an example of course, and of course there's the title and stuff but really I think it's doable. - Original Message - From: Ron Schamerhorn [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Monday, February 18, 2008 3:48 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Magazine questions Hi James I'm curious as to how difficult it might be to use headers/html in Audyssey.

Re: [Audyssey] STFC
Hi Josh, In fact, on the current version of my web site the name of Star Trek has been dropped from the game. Future builds of STFC will be only known as Final Conflict, but it it will still probably Star Trek based or at least Star Trek-like. In the next versions I plan to have you command a entire fleet of mixed classes of ships from Constitution class ships from the Kirk era all the way up to the powerful Sovereign-Class cruisers from the Star Trek movies 8, 9, and 10. So in this new version you might have a mixed fleet of Constitution era ships, Excelcior-class ships from the Excelsior era, the Ambassador-Class ships, the Galaxy-Class, Sovereign-Class, Defiant-class, and may be an Intrepid ship or two. Each ship would have its advantages and disadvantages. The Intrepid-class ships like voyager have extremely good warp technology, and has the fastest rated speeds on Federation record, but are less armored and carry less firepower into battle than other classes. The Defiant-Class is smaller than most ships but is a small armored ship with cloaking and stealth technology, and can deliver quite a heavy punch. The Sovereign-Class after the battle in First Contact is the front line battleship in the Federation fleet because of its good armored hull design, heavy firepower, but is slower than other classes. The Constitution-class and Excelcior-classes were great for their day, but there is still enough of them around to use as inexpensive ships to fill in odd jobs for the Federation, or to fill in the ranks of a fleet in the time of war. To be able to build new and more advanced classes you might have to have a few research bases constructed to pay for research into phaser technology, warp technology, torpedo technology, cloaking technology, armor technology, or whatever. The cool thing about the way i am doing this we could even think of concept ship classes such as a Sovereign-Class cruiser with a built in cloak. That would be wicked as heck. josh wrote: hey thomas, ok how about this for the star trek game. just drop the star trek off of the title. just call it final conflict. and then do like you're gunna do with tomb-hunter, just give us krappy sounds in the original game, and then add a sound pack. see then you can kind of sneak around the copyrights but still give us a cool game to play.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Poll Results.
Hi Dark. Oh yes I absolutely agree with you in principal that technology could do a lot more for us in terms of navigation devices, I use a bat k sonar device on my cane myself and have found it to be very handy for determining things like the size and relative position of objects near me when I am walking around. I think more research and development needs to be done with these devices. Unfortunately I can tell you from direct experience that while some of us will undoubtedly benefit from these devices I have personally worked with many who get lost in a closet. This is getting a bit off-topic for gaming, so to bring it back on-topic somewhat, I will say that indeed games like SOD are excellent tools for helping some people develop orientation skills.

Well I agree tom, but technology wise, i don't see navigation difficulties as an absolute fact of being visually impared, - not with things like the Ultra cane being developed, and all the possible applications of sat nav technology. In fact eventually, it wouldsn't surprise me if a combination of sat nav and echo or infra red location could be used to create something in real life which performed much the same functions as the navigater in shades as far as routes and obstacle information was concerned (though obviously it couldn't tell you about objects).

Hi Thomas and all. I personally really like both styles of games and think that there is plenty of room for both in our gaming community. If MOTA continues on what seems to be its present course I am confident it is going to turn out a really good game in the classic sidescroller style. While it is true that these games are somewhat easier to deal with if one does not feel like expending a huge amount of energy in concentrating on where one is and where things are and I enjoy them for that reason, I do enjoy the chalenge of first person shooter type games such as SOD and am very excited to see where you go with TombHunter II when that time comes. My spatial skills are very good so no problem there, although I must say I have gotten absolutely nowhere with Audio Quake. There is no doubt that it takes more energy and concentration for us to navigate in a new environment be it a real one or in a game and some will be up to it and some won't. This is a fact of our existence and I don't see that changing any time soon.

Hi Mike and all, Keep in mind here that the Tomb Hunter series is suppose to be a knock-off clone of Tomb Raider. The majority of Tomb Raider games fall in the third-person or first person action genre. Though, there was a side-scroller version made for a cell phone or something a while back. All I can ask is that the community try Tomb Raider II when it comes out, and if they don't like it tough. My Genesis 3D engine is suppose to be the next generation of audio games for the blind community which is lacking currently. As I was saying on the USA Games list a few minutes ago I am really at a cross roads in development. I often get requests to make games just like or as good as the games out their for the sighted market. However, when I ran my poll over the weekend a good many of those who voted for a side-scroller expressed feelings like FPS games are too hard to play, I can't figure them out, don't have a compatible sound card, etc. So that left me pretty confused where to go in the future. i don't know if it is just fright at trying something totally new, or most blind gamers don't have very good spacial and orientation skills.

You will have to cross into enemy held space to destroy shipyards, planetary defence stations, research stations, etc. If you capture a mining colony you can mine the planet for materials to build your ships and bases The more planets you have the more you can tax and gather credits to buy better ships and weapons. shaun everiss wrote: well each ship will have its own bridge, etc I have heaps of sfx, and since we are not just doing trek here and its only trek like I now have extra chunky sfx which may not be trek, eg babilon5 sfx, etc. --- 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] STFC
Hi, Quote Question. For all of us who like the current formula, could you perhaps have it separately, so that those who wouldn't mind both could actually have access to both rather than go with the new flow if it's hard for them? End quote No, that won't be possible. STFC 2 uses a very standard real time strategy game mottle that is used by games such as Galaxy Civilization. The objectives and way the game is played is totally different. Instead of you take a turn, the computer takes a turn, this thing has everything happening in real time. While you are constructing fleets, finding planets to mine, building research stations to design better warp technology, etc the Klingons, Romulans, and other galactic races are also building up their fleets. What is really nice about this style of game play is if you capture an enemy research station you might find a prototype for a new warp drive system, better torpedo, better cloaking device, etc. Either that or you form an alliance with another galactic power and buy, sell, or trade technological upgrades. Alliances can be very helpful if there is a super power you are trying to defeat. For example, if the Borg were fighting everyone it would be smart to form an alliance with the Romulans and Klingons, share technical information, so that the Borg could be defeated or stopped. Another great advantage of this style of game play is unlike STFC 1 where bases are more-or-less randomly stuck somewhere you can pick and choose where to put stuff on the map. If you want a base on the Klingon boarder to defend and use as a weapons depot put one there and launch your major offensive from there. At least if nothing else you have something guarding that boarder even if your fleet isn't fully present to protect that boarder. As far as playing it I think the game will be easy enough to play. A lot of the ship to ship stuff is handles by the A.I. for each ship. Your main goal is to plan attacks, build the fleets, and decide the lagistics of the war. Are you going to buy 5 old Constitution-Class ships because they are dirt cheap or are you going to save up some and buy a new Sovereign-Class cruiser. With the Sovereign-Class one ship is better than 5 Constitution=-Class ships, but it can't be in 5 places at once either. So you have to decide what you need and how to deploy it. Maybe it might be better to buy two or three Galaxy-Class ships which is an older design, but still quite good in a fight.
