Re: [Audyssey] ran across a very random mod for half life 2
because I don't have half life, and I would have to borrow it. Since I now know its crap it saves me time not getting the game. At 07:59 p.m. 24/11/2008, you wrote: That's ridiculous.

I've actually been in contact with the developer of that Mod in the past, - there's a topic about it somewhere on audiogames.net with a link to a utube vid of someone playing it (though not doing too well). I wasn't able to try it myself being totally without a copy of halflife 2, but I do know someone visually impared who does. he said it was a fun play, but several factors also made it more complex, such as the fact that instead of walls to the playing area, you can just endlessly walk in one direction. Also, while it's a great idea and advert for audio games, the problem was the developer had to specifically create and place all of the sound objects and sources in the Mod, for the mod. Many objects in the actual halflife 2 game do not unfortunately have properties which could be modified to have them create sound, or have the player have tools such as a sonar. All navigation in the Mod is done by specifically placed sound objects, and according to my friend who tried the game (who also has played shades of doom), the spacing and audio navigation wasn't half as smooth as in shades. so, a fun game, and a great way to get people interested in audio games, but sadly not an accessible halflife 2, - though the developer did say he was interested in perhaps making more audio games, maybe something actually programmed by himself, so it's not all doom and gloom.

Re: [Audyssey] More SAPI Frustration
Hi Terrence, since you have already tried the DelUserLex.exe file. Here is another fix that I was told about. Not sure if it is actually just doing the same thing or not. Go to c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Speech Then, press enter on Sapisvr.exe. It won't say anything, but it should correct the control panel entries for Sapi. Another thing that you can do is to use the Windows XP restore feature to restore your computer back to a date when the voices were working. And then there is to use your Windows XP cd to repair the entire sapi5 text to speech engine. And Thomas gave us this link you can download (SpeechSDK51MSM.exe). which contains all of the Microsoft Sapi voices available for Windows XP from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=5e86ec97-40a7-453f-b0ee-6583171b4530displaylang=en HTH BFN Jim Check my web site for my free blind accessible pc dos and windows games.

Re: [Audyssey] Lonewolf targeting.
H, I'll have to try that, usually I find I have to move for the first cargo ship and am then in the complete wrong place for the destroyer. Btw Tom, as reguards a user created mission, I seem to remember that it was possible to add text messages which would be displayed mid mission, or at the triggering of certain events, for example the sinking of one ship or your sub getting to a particular area. this is all I meant by adding hints, - eg, (as you've just done), suggesting possibly good angles for the various ships before you go and tackle them. Beware the Grue! Dark. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Monday, November 24, 2008 5:04 AM Subject: [Audyssey] Lonewolf targeting. Hi Dark, Well, keep in mind when firing you want to hit the enemy ship in the port or starboard side. Obviously, that offers a lot larger target than trying to go for a bow or stern shot. Though, bow and stern shots are possible once you get skilled at the game. Let us take mission 1 as an example. Don't move since the first cargo ship is going to litterally pass your bow in a minute or so. Just open your doors, when you view the cargo ship, press period follow by the number one. When the tone of the target gets very high pitched press f6 and drop one or two torpedoes into the sucker. Close the torpedo doors and wait for the cargo ship to sink. A destroyer will pass, but if the cargo ship hasn't sunk don't fire since it is still in your way. If you want to hit both very quickly I usually turn 15 degrees to port, bearing 345, and fire upon the first cargo ship so I can later change heading to 0 so I can kill the destroyer. Try that and see if that helps.

Re: [Audyssey] Updated Lonewolf sound pack released.
Hi Tom, Thanks for the updated LW pack, but I have a few questions about it. I noticed you have the files at 44k 16 bit stereo but the sounds seem to be centered as if they were mono. Some of these sounds would be better if they were full stereo . Although the original sounds were mono, I found LW was easier to play when the background music and water sound was pushed to each side making the important targeting and ship sounds clearer in the center of the sound field. I also noticed you did not include the LW theme song which I have in stereo.

Re: [Audyssey] Updated Lonewolf sound pack released.
Hi Dark, Unfortunately, I don't have a better sinking sound than the one was provided with the game. I did however clean up the original sound so it at least sounds a bit better. If I ever find a more realistic/better sinking sound I'll update the sound pack. Let me know if you like the updated pack. dark wrote: Lol Tom, I was thinking that sounded a bit small. Seriously thanks for the pack I'll look forward to trying it. I hope you've got a good sinking sound there, sinse that's one I'll probably be hereing a lot, ;D. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Lone wolf sound pack.
Hi Willem, Yeah, that is always a great tactic. Usually, I like to hit them when the destroyers have to slow down to turn. Usually they will drop to 1 or 2 naughts and then they are easy prey for my torps. Another tactic I love is move at full speed through say the mine field and have the destroyer follow you into the mine field. Here I am busting 18 naughts through the mine field and the destroyers skipper is a real wimp. He takes the mine field at 1 naught. All you have to do is aim your torpedoes correctly back into the mine field and that destroyer is toast. i love that trick. Willem wrote: Yeah, what I also do when there are two or three ships is shoot one and while the other two are slowing down to hunt me, loose a few torps at them too. Then I usually try and get away as quick as possible. --- 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] More SAPI Frustration
Hi Jim, By the way, the deluserlex.exe program and Sapisvr.exe perform two completely different actions. Deluserlex.exe deletes any custom user lexicon files that may have been added when more non-Microsoft TTS engines are installed that may be causing speech issues. The Sapisvr.exe program corrects the entries in the control pannel. From what I gathered from Terrence's issue neither seams to be the case. Honestly, I think the only way to fix this one is to reinstall the entire Sapi 5 speech system from the product recovery cd by removing the old copy of Sapi and then installing it cleanly Although,t hje Sapi 5 SDK should do a full install as well.. Smile. Jim Kitchen wrote: Hi Terrence, since you have already tried the DelUserLex.exe file. Here is another fix that I was told about. Not sure if it is actually just doing the same thing or not. Go to c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Speech Then, press enter on Sapisvr.exe. It won't say anything, but it should correct the control panel entries for Sapi. Another thing that you can do is to use the Windows XP restore feature to restore your computer back to a date when the voices were working. And then there is to use your Windows XP cd to repair the entire sapi5 text to speech engine.

Hi Tom, I just want to be clear, the sound files are all stereo but the sounds in them are only in the center.

Re: [Audyssey] ran across a very random mod for half life 2
It's a shame that halflife has limited development potential for audio gaming purposes. I've played just a bit of it, thanks to a sited friend, and the environment is rich in sound sources. There are so many mainstream videogames out there that, with just a tweek here or there, would be simply amazing as audio games. One example of this is the abandonware game Take No Prisoners. I actually played this game with a friend over intranet and was able to aim well enough due to the environment that he'd pick out all the visible targets and I'd stand behind him, make him duck, and take out the farther off targets with a longrange gun. We actually had even scores pretty much by the end of the game. There are aspects, like piloting various vehicles, that would be difficult, but the whole thing is very quake-like. I can send the directory containing the game to anyone that might be interested. If you enable the endless ammo cheat, you can even use a particular weapon as a sort of sonar. The bolts of the crossbow make different sounds if they hit walls, doors, people, or equipment. It's not perfect, but it works well enough to keep one amused for some time at least.

I've actually been in contact with the developer of that Mod in the past, - there's a topic about it somewhere on audiogames.net with a link to a utube vid of someone playing it (though not doing too well). I wasn't able to try it myself being totally without a copy of halflife 2, but I do know someone visually impared who does. he said it was a fun play, but several factors also made it more complex, such as the fact that instead of walls to the playing area, you can just endlessly walk in one direction. Also, while it's a great idea and advert for audio games, the problem was the developer had to specifically create and place all of the sound objects and sources in the Mod, for the mod. Many objects in the actual halflife 2 game do not unfortunately have properties which could be modified to have them create sound, or have the player have tools such as a sonar. All navigation in the Mod is done by specifically placed sound objects, and according to my friend who tried the game (who also has played shades of doom), the spacing and audio navigation wasn't half as smooth as in shades. so, a fun game, and a great way to get people interested in audio games, but sadly not an accessible halflife 2, - though the developer did say he was interested in perhaps making more audio games, maybe something actually programmed by himself, so it's not all doom and gloom.

I have a couple of questions concerning the construction of cars and tracks.

Just as a note, the pickup, mini, and classic all sound quite similar. The pickup and mini in particular seem to almost be the same sound file.
