Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
in my view we have enough text adventures though look at the interactive fiction archive. I prefer audio games and would prefer a 3d like tomb rader style game as playing through a text adventure in my opinion gets boring after a few days On 7 Dec 2008, at 08:00, ian mcnamara wrote: yes i would like some text adventures. i love them. thanks ian - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Sunday, December 07, 2008 6:51 AM Subject: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.

does it work ok on mac with safari? On 6 Dec 2008, at 23:57, Orin wrote: Hi all, Well, it's yet another browser RPG. And it really is an RPG. It's got pretty good story too. What I also like about this is that it has a nice battle system, where in a dungeon you fight hoards of monsters until you leave the battle or die, so I gained about 2 levels without really loosing much health. More things I like about it? The fact that the help files are detailed and when getting help for skills, it says very high malee attack, instead of a malee attack that does X It also has an accessible map. The only disadvantage that I see so far right now is in the quest description when you receive a quest, you have the oppertunity to jump back to the questgivers location to complete the quest. That's not accessible because the main links, logout, the different tabs as they call them we don't know which tab we're on, isn't labled. All it says is clear, however I have managed to complete the first quest because the action menu is accessible talking to NPCs, shopping, etc. I'll be signing up to the forums in a bit to inform Arren, the developer, about these issues, and hopefully he'd be so nice as to fix them. I think if this game does become fully accessible it'll be just as good as Sryth is.

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
Hi tom. Firstly, I'm a huge If fan myself, and have just been getting back into playing, which is great. I can highly recommend the tads games worlds apart and Bable, the Zcode games Pytho's mask, and the djinni Chronicles and anything you can find by Paul Obrian. While I'd be intI've also been trying out some of Malinche's commercial titles (well the demo's of them anyway), and their not half bad, though a litle frustrating in parts. For an honest opinion on whether Usa games should write If though, to be honest Tom, your one of the very few people with the knowhow to create actual audio games. While I'm sure you could come up with some great If, as there are literally thousands of If games available, but a distinct lack of audio games (especially in certain genre areas), I'd personally suggest that your tallents could be more usefully employed elsewhere. Obviously the decision is up to you, and as I said, I said this is nothing to do with the quality of your If writing, - it's just a supply and demand thing. On the other hand, if you were planning something multimedia, custom programmed as opposed to one of the standard If languages, perhaps a sort of interactive fiction in audio (the sort of thing Chillingham should have been), then I think it's a great idea.

Re: [Audyssey] World Building Games
Ah, that sounds an ideal situation provided we could find someone with the time and skills necessary to do things with the windows port.

Dark. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Sunday, December 07, 2008 7:04 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] World Building Games Hi Dark, Well, seeing as this is open source the nice thing is any developer is allowed to modify the source, and make whatever changes as needed. I technically could do it myself if I had the time to sit down with it. Right now the issues seam to be on the Windows side of things as I do play Freeciv from time to time on Linux and Orca seams to do better with it than Jaws, Hal, or Window Eyes. One thing I'd want to make sure of is any access issues that get changed should effect the Windows port and not the Linux version as other than a few gripes here and there the linux version is ok. They have a Mac version as well, but can't test that versionwithout a MacBook. Anyway, as you pointed out generally the open source community is open to accessibility changes. They aren't like a commercial group of die-hard developers and most of them are just your average Joe who writes this program on the side. If you have programming skills they will let you on board to make whatever access changes are necessarily provided it doesn't effect their own use of the product. dark wrote: Hi Tom. I'll look over freeciv with Hal, and then have a think and contact the devs. In my experience, people who are highly dedicated to projects like freeciv are often incredibly happy that their pet creations will be accessible, and quite willing to make a few changes here and there. Fully rewriting the front end or adding complete sapi support might be a bit of a big thing to ask, - but if there were some more minimal changes, eg, changes in layout or labling which could help, I've often found that small dedicated groups of developers are incredibly happy to make such changes. Actually, in these sorts of situations, I often think working with the creators of games and programs like Freeciv is an incredibly good thing for everyone, and better than either A, giving up on something entirely, or B, trying to just keep it within the Vi gaming community. Just my personal thoughts on this subject after being in a good many of those sorts of conversations with devs. Beware the Grue!

Hi, Quote in my view we have enough text adventures though look at the interactive fiction archive. End quote Well, yes and no. While it is true there are a lot of interactive fiction games there aren't many that are fully RPG games on the level of Nethack or Sryth. Not to mention one of my gripes with the if games that are out there they often require a special interpreter like frotz, tads, etc which isn't always the best for the kind of full blown RPG text adventures I am thinking of. Quote I prefer audio games and would prefer a 3d like tomb rader style game... End quote We still have that in the works. However, I have spent so much time on the Genesis engine the passed few months I was hoping to do something a bit different for a change. I can always come back to the full 3D FPS games when I feel rested. Quote Playing through a text adventure in my opinion gets boring after a few days End quote i guess that is personal opinion there. Some RPG adventures like Nethack can keep me glued to it for days and days. It is pretty adictive in my opinion and it doesn't even have sounds and music. --- 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.

Quote On the other hand, if you were planning something multimedia, custom programmed as opposed to one of the standard If languages, perhaps a sort of interactive fiction in audio (the sort of thing Chillingham should have been), then I think it's a great idea. End quote I was not planning on using any of the interactive fiction languages like Inform Tads, etc. I was definitely planning on something custom that was both multi-platform and far more into roll playing with stats, races, multiple adventures, etdc. As far as audio goes I wasn't planning on using audio with the game, but it could be done. The only issue is finding all the sound effects required for the various monsters and characters in the game. I was hoping to go full Dungions and Dragons RPG with various classes, creatures, and many adventures. Obviously initial versions would not have that many adventures but it would be an ongoing project with new adventures being added as I think them up or if people submit ideas for the game.

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
do you hope to have monty out by the end of the year or a demo at all? that way at least by early next year that can be one project off the shelf On 7 Dec 2008, at 09:15, Thomas Ward wrote: Hi, Quote in my view we have enough text adventures though look at the interactive fiction archive. End quote Well, yes and no. While it is true there are a lot of interactive fiction games there aren't many that are fully RPG games on the level of Nethack or Sryth. Not to mention one of my gripes with the if games that are out there they often require a special interpreter like frotz, tads, etc which isn't always the best for the kind of full blown RPG text adventures I am thinking of. Quote I prefer audio games and would prefer a 3d like tomb rader style game... End quote We still have that in the works. However, I have spent so much time on the Genesis engine the passed few months I was hoping to do something a bit different for a change. I can always come back to the full 3D FPS games when I feel rested. Quote Playing through a text adventure in my opinion gets boring after a few days End quote i guess that is personal opinion there. Some RPG adventures like Nethack can keep me glued to it for days and days. It is pretty adictive in my opinion and it doesn't even have sounds and music. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

[Audyssey] MOTA was Thoughts about new text adventures.
Hi Will, Mysteries of the Ancients Alpha 1 is in private testing as we speak. I am planning on releasing Alpha 2 to my test team sometime Sunday/Monday once I take care of a couple of nasty bugs that was discovered in Alpha 1 this week. As far as a release Window goes I am playing it by ear. I would like nothing more than to have a demo out by Christmas, but that all depends on how much the test team and I get done with the game between now and then. There have been many bugs in the engine, and I have been working like a mad man to fix them all and make the demo really stable for end user consumption. So all I can say is I hope to have something soon, but it is out when it is ready.

Hi Dark, You got that right. Back when I still had my Apple A2-E I use to love Eamon. There were like a hundred adventures you could embark on from your typical dungion crawl game to something with a really sci-fi theme. It was frikin awesome. dark wrote: Ah, that's sounding good.

Hi Dark, Yes, exactly what I am thinking of. Basically, a stand alone RPG game similar to Nethack or Sryth that is custom written in C++ and runs on Mac, Linux, and Windows. I have the official Dungion and Dragons rule books here and I would likely base all of the attack rolls, stats, and classes out of the official Dungions and Dragons guides so that it would meet d20 rules and specifications. dark wrote: Well, if we're talking about nethack style completely custom programmed Rpg's, then I'm deffinately behind this all the way!

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
Hi Tom. as I said earlier, i'd deffinately be in favor of that sort of project, and think it would be a great thing to have submitted, - particularly if you could include mechanics unique to an offline system, such as more random encounter elements and dynamic context based story. I assumed when you first mentioned creating If you were talking about writing in inform or similar, hence my initial reluctance to the idea. But as you can imagine, now you've explained a bit more I'm all for it! In fact, as reguards creating adventures, it might be sort of fun to have a platform similar to the eamon system where people could submit their own adventures to the game to be accessed from a central llocale, - though this migh involve more work in the genre creation end of things than you might wish to put in for a fun project, allbeit one which will be fun for all concerned, players included I think, lol!

Hi Dark, Snip For an honest opinion on whether Usa games should write If though, to be honest Tom, your one of the very few people with the knowhow to create actual audio games. While I'm sure you could come up with some great If, as there are literally thousands of If games available, but a distinct lack of audio games (especially in certain genre areas), I'd personally suggest that your tallents could be more usefully employed elsewhere. End snip Well, I wasn't suggesting that I would quit making audio games altogether. More this would be a little side project to crank out in between big audio game productions like Tomb Hunter, Raceway, and other projects I have on the things to do list. It would just be a fun thing to do for, well, for fun. Quote On the other hand, if you were planning something multimedia, custom programmed as opposed to one of the standard If languages, perhaps a sort of interactive fiction in audio (the sort of thing Chillingham should have been), then I think it's a great idea. End quote I was not planning on using any of the interactive fiction languages like Inform Tads, etc. I was definitely planning on something custom that was both multi-platform and far more into roll playing with stats, races, multiple adventures, etdc. As far as audio goes I wasn't planning on using audio with the game, but it could be done. The only issue is finding all the sound effects required for the various monsters and characters in the game. I was hoping to go full Dungions and Dragons RPG with various classes, creatures, and many adventures. Obviously initial versions would not have that many adventures but it would be an ongoing project with new adventures being added as I think them up or if people submit ideas for the game.

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
Hi Tom. Out of interest, which rules do you have? The third edition rules made a lot more sense I thought and were much easier to master, and probably the program, sinse they included things like positive armour classes which add to defence rather than remove from attack, though I'm not sure how available the 3rd Ed rule books are (I only know the rules from having played the game in tabletop). Also, I'm personally becoming slightly disenchanted with the kill monsters for general Xp mechanic. If you gain combat xp purely from the physical act of sswinging your weapons around, or have a quest to slay a hoard of goblins, or are a good character ridding the world of evil creatures fair enough, but just getting random amounts of xp for clobbering things as in DD seems to me rather odd. My brother did once tell me of a starwars D20 game he played in, which at one stage had a party of Jedi going wooky hunting sinse they needed to level up their force powers, and had worked out that wookies were A, easily killable, and B, would give great xp rewards.

It's not in the documentation because that's supposed to be something of a surprise. You don't need to use the arrows, just press enter to jump. Then when you hear the beeping you mentioned you can press Control to unload your weapon. Just remember to keep jumping when you hear his gun.

[Audyssey] Domain of Heroes
Well, after a bit of testing with jaws, I've come to the conclusion that, with jaws at least, this game is about as accessible as Lands of Hope. That is, it takes a bit of adapting and it can be tough to navigate, but its dooable. But I have to say its not all its cracked up to be. Battle entails simply selecting an action and then just sitting there while your character kills wave after wave of monsters. Not exactly what I'd call entertaining. The quests do look well thought out, and I'll have to look into the story more, but so far its not exactly impressive. One thing I still can't figure out is how, if at all, you can examine items. There doesn't even seem to be a mouseover thing to bring up a description with stats and such, so equipment seems to be guesswork, which I really don't like. Anyway, I'll play around with it a little more and see what I come up with, but it doesn't really look promising. --- 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] Domain of Heroes
As I said Shaddow dragon, all the items and such are on screen hot spots with no lables, thus unfindable. i don't know if there are better descriptions in the inventory tab, sinse again, the tabs seem to be completely unlabled graphical hot spots. i think it's possible to basically wander around the game and sit around in a dungeon until you either beat up some monsters or get kicked out, and to do quests just using the main map view and text boxes, but not having the inventory tab is a pest, also the pvp actually sounded interesting in this game, but from the description seemed very graphically nasty. If you can get the people in charge to do some serious text labeling (particularly of tabs), please let me know. Beware the grue! Dark.

Hi everyone, Over the last few months I have really been getting into interactive fiction games, and really enjoy the old text adventures. As a result that has me thinking of some possible game projects after Mysteries of the Ancients and Raceway are released. One idea I have been thinking of is producing a handful of USA Games text adventures for Mac, Windows, and Linux that is similar to classic if titles. With web based games like Sryth around I have discovered the classic DND text adventure style game still can be quite addictive given enough adventures and puzzles in it.

My thoughts exactly. the point is it's a text adventure, so it's all about the writing quality.

Re: [Audyssey] Muds
Hi. Alter Aeon. See http://dentinmud.org or telnet://dentinmud.org :3010 It's a midevil style hack and slash game with a farely decent player base. I've got loads of friends on there. I've been playing since May 2005. It's sort of similar to dicu based muds, but it's not dicu as it was written from scratch. One of my favorite things about it that I can't find anywhere else is that the melee combat system you can't see each fighting round. With smaug and dicu and such when you fight something you get a two second period of scilence, then you get a load of hits all at once, then it's scilent for another two seconds. Alter Aeon is just kind of continuous and seems more realistic in that aspect. Many people don't like Alter Aeon. They say it's boring, all you do is run run run, which means you go kill mobs left and right in order to get experience that you need to level with. I certainly don't feel that way. I often log in and just chat with my many friends on there. If I did want to get more interesting than that without killing mobs I could brew potions, or I could enter a player killer arena and go whoop some insert word of choice here. Speaking of player killer, which for those who are unaware, it means to go up against another human controlled character and try to kill that character. Alter Aeon is a great mud to me because player versis player isn't required on there. You can never kill another player or be killed by another one ligidimintly if you want. In order to be killable by another player or to be able tokill another player you have to enter a command. There's even a temporary one so that you can just log out and back into the game and you're no longer a player killer. Also there are player killing arenas mortal that goes into arenas can kill other players as that's the point. During temporary player killing and player killing arena, you don't have anything to lose by killing or being killed. You don't lose experience or anytyhing so you can just have a hay ride and enjoy yourself testing your abilities against all the quad 32 players who decide to come have fun with yoou. Just had a recent experience with the quad 32 thing. They killed me and several other clan members of mine a whole bunch and we finally managed to kill them, with all of us teaming them *lol*. That was so funny. - Original Message - From: Lindsay Cowell To: gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Sunday, December 07, 2008 5:52 AM Subject: [Audyssey] Muds Hi folks, What muds are recommended for blind people?

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
hi. I like the idea. I don't much like the browser based games though. At least not srith. Srith i'm just too laxy to arrow around and see what''s going on after each turn. Haha that doesn't mean I don't think it's a good game though. I should try it again, I haven't tried it on an internet connection that wasn't a dialup connection before. Back then I had to wait like 30 seconds for the page to reload. now it would probably reload in 5 or so. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward To: gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Sunday, December 07, 2008 1:51 AM Subject: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures. Hi everyone, Over the last few months I have really been getting into interactive fiction games, and really enjoy the old text adventures. As a result that has me thinking of some possible game projects after Mysteries of the Ancients and Raceway are released. One idea I have been thinking of is producing a handful of USA Games text adventures for Mac, Windows, and Linux that is similar to classic if titles. With web based games like Sryth around I have discovered the classic DND text adventure style game still can be quite addictive given enough adventures and puzzles in it. What do you all think of this idea?

Re: [Audyssey] Domain of Heroes
Actually the tabs are accessible with jaws. Hence why I said I couldn't find any kind of link to bring up item descriptions or the like. They're not exactly accessible, since they aren't labeled, but you can get to them with a little trial and error, with jaws at least it's a matter of memorizing 2 or 3 arrow key presses depending on what tab you're trying to access. and yeah, as for battle, I can't see really anything to do there accept sit and let wave after wave of monsters come to you. I have trouble believing that's all there is to it, but that's all I can find as of now. Anyway, it seems to be another case of no real plot anyway.

Re: [Audyssey] Domain of Heroes
While I agree that practically you'd have to have a very decent sort of webmaster to do that, - in fairness if they'd actually been obeying their net conventions there should have been alt text there anyway. Sryth has a few images, particularly associated with functions, and you know Kingdom of loathing is packed with them, but both of those games are fine simply because people have been doing what they should. It might just be my boardom with the majority of standard form rpg's talking, but it does actually seem that for a heck of a lot of games, the more time spent on flashy images and graphics and an inconvenient user interface, the worse the writing and story. though of course there are exceptions like age of fable.

Re: [Audyssey] Domain of Heroes
Lands of Hope seems pretty good writing quality and it appears to be graphical. It takes a lot of getting used to but when I play next time I'm determined at least to get out of the estate.

That is, it takes a bit of adapting and it can be tough to navigate, but its dooable. But I have to say its not all its cracked up to be. Battle entails simply selecting an action and then just sitting there while your character kills wave after wave of monsters. Not exactly what I'd call entertaining. The quests do look well thought out, and I'll have to look into the story more, but so far its not exactly impressive.
Re: [Audyssey] Domain of Heroes
You definitely won't get any argument from me. Unfortunately it seems like webmasters are getting lazier and lazier these days. Shame most text rpg's of this sort couldn't have started as KoL did, where everything was labelled from the start. Of course on the other hand, there's only so much you can do with labelling, especially when it comes to animation and meters and the like. I'm not really sure what you mean about age of fable being the exception though, it doesn't really have any flashy immages and the like that I know of, doesn't even have a combat system.Its pretty much like a choose your own adventure book governed strictly by stat tests. -- From: dark [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, December 07, 2008 11:29 AM To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Domain of Heroes While I agree that practically you'd have to have a very decent sort of webmaster to do that, - in fairness if they'd actually been obeying their net conventions there should have been alt text there anyway.

[Audyssey] Question for Jim about Simon
Hi Jim I enjoy your Simon, but I would please like to know if you could do these suggestions if it can be done without too much trouble. 1. Can you make it so that a person can start from the round from where you failed, or that you can set from which number of objects to remember to begin? Example, if I fail on round 10, can I start again from round 10? 2. Some people prefer to play memory to see how much they can remember without a time limit, rather trying to concentrate on remembering as much as they can without the pressure of time. Could there be an option to turn time limits on and off?

Re: [Audyssey] Muds
Another mud that I play on is materia magica. materiamagica.com port 23 or port 4000. either will work. I have been playing 2 years now and enjoy much. It is a fantasy world. It is hack and slash but there are other parts as well. You can quest to gain rewards as well as go on what they call runs. Runs are adventures in the game that often require a group of players to cooperate together to get done. I enjoy it. The player base is friendly and the ims are very receptive to making things easy for a screen reader to read. My husband is a guide on the game and helps many of the vi players who play.

Alter Aeon. See http://dentinmud.org or telnet://dentinmud.org :3010 It's a midevil style hack and slash game with a farely decent player base. I've got loads of friends on there. I've been playing since May 2005. It's sort of similar to dicu based muds, but it's not dicu as it was written from scratch. One of my favorite things about it that I can't find anywhere else is that the melee combat system you can't see each fighting round. With smaug and dicu and such when you fight something you get a two second period of scilence, then you get a load of hits all at once, then it's scilent for another two seconds. Alter Aeon is just kind of continuous and seems more realistic in that aspect. Many people don't like Alter Aeon. They say it's boring, all you do is run run run, which means you go kill mobs left and right in order to get experience that you need to level with. I certainly don't feel that way. I often log in and just chat with my many friends on there. If I did want to get more interesting than that without killing mobs I could brew potions, or I could enter a player killer arena and go whoop some insert word of choice here. Speaking of player killer, which for those who are unaware, it means to go up against another human controlled character and try to kill that character. Alter Aeon is a great mud to me because player versis player isn't required on there. You can never kill another player or be killed by another one ligidimintly if you want. In order to be killable by another player or to be able tokill another player you have to enter a command. There's even a temporary one so that you can just log out and back into the game and you're no longer a player killer. Also there are player killing arenas mortal that goes into arenas can kill other players as that's the point. During temporary player killing and player killing arena, you don't have anything to lose by killing or being killed. You don't lose experience or anytyhing so you can just have a hay ride and enjoy yourself testing your abilities against all the quad 32 players who decide to come have fun with yoou. Just had a recent experience with the quad 32 thing. They killed me and several other clan members of mine a whole bunch and we finally managed to kill them, with all of us teaming them *lol*.

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
I love the idea of a stand along rpg. Writing is essential in making that interesting for me. But I know that you are creative and will have a great story Tom. I think that having sounds and music would be nice but it isn't necessary for a good game. It is more for atmosphere and such. On the muds I play I have a lot of osunds set.

Alter Aeon. See http://dentinmud.org or telnet://dentinmud.org :3010 It's a midevil style hack and slash game with a farely decent player base. I've got loads of friends on there. I've been playing since May 2005. It's sort of similar to dicu based muds, but it's not dicu as it was written from scratch. One of my favorite things about it that I can't find anywhere else is that the melee combat system you can't see each fighting round. With smaug and dicu and such when you fight something you get a two second period of scilence, then you get a load of hits all at once, then it's scilent for another two seconds. Alter Aeon is just kind of continuous and seems more realistic in that aspect. Many people don't like Alter Aeon. They say it's boring, all you do is run run run, which means you go kill mobs left and right in order to get experience that you need to level with. I certainly don't feel that way. I often log in and just chat with my many friends on there. If I did want to get more interesting than that without killing mobs I could brew potions, or I could enter a player killer arena and go whoop some insert word of choice here. Speaking of player killer, which for those who are unaware, it means to go up against another human controlled character and try to kill that character. Alter Aeon is a great mud to me because player versis player isn't required on there. You can never kill another player or be killed by another one ligidimintly if you want. In order to be killable by another player or to be able tokill another player you have to enter a command. There's even a temporary one so that you can just log out and back into the game and you're no longer a player killer. Also there are player killing arenas mortal that goes into arenas can kill other players as that's the point. During temporary player killing and player killing arena, you don't have anything to lose by killing or being killed. You don't lose experience or anytyhing so you can just have a hay ride and enjoy yourself testing your abilities against all the quad 32 players who decide to come have fun with yoou. Just had a recent experience with the quad 32 thing. They killed me and several other clan members of mine a whole bunch and we finally managed to kill them, with all of us teaming them *lol*.

[Audyssey] Tom's game, for everyone?
It just occurred to me, that Tom's text rpg would actually appeal to lots of people outside the accessible games community as well, such as all those fans of Gamebooks, Sryth, text adventures etc. For the purposes of accessible games awareness etc, I think it'd be great to have a text rpg with great writing and nice mechanics sitting on a site beside the likes of Mota. there are even various places I can think of which might host or be happy to have information about the game, everywhere from the Chronicles of Arborell forum to the Pc index of the If archive. Of course, this would mean also making the game playable by mouse, and having options such as a different text colour for clickable choices, but that shouldn't be too much of a problem I think.

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
Hi, Well to do something like Eaman I'd have to add a parcer to the game and then it would be like building my own inform, tads, etc scripting language which is a major pain. About the best thing I could do is release the game under some type of open source license like creative commons that would allow C/C++ developers to add to the games over all story if they desired. Either that or people could submit there quests/adventures to me and I'd include them into the game as I get time. in fact, I fully hope to be able to do that to expand the adventures in the future. dark wrote: Hi Tom. as I said earlier, i'd deffinately be in favor of that sort of project, and think it would be a great thing to have submitted, - particularly if you could include mechanics unique to an offline system, such as more random encounter elements and dynamic context based story.

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
Hi Dark, Well, I have a complete copy of the 2nd eddition of the rules. I agree the 3rd eddition rules are better. However, I am more or less using the rules as a guide rather than a 100% match. Some things would be easier if i modify it to suit my game engine rather than using every single possible rule/combo. I want this game to be playable by any average gamer without having to know every possible rule in Dungions and Dragons table top RPG by heart. Grin. dark wrote: Hi Tom.

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
Hi Claudio, Oh, I see. Well, can't help you there. The genre of roll playing games are all about story driven fantacy and not about constant action like in Mysteries of the Ancients. I don't know if you have ever read the choose your own adventure books, but I use to love those as a kid. No matter how many times you read the book as long as you made different choices while reading you would end up in a totally different adventure. The endings would sometimes turn out different which was cool. Interactive fiction is a lot like that, and rpg is more so since it is unlimited in adventures and there is no end to the quests. Your character is constantly expanding and obtaining new skills, powers, weapons, etc. Claudio wrote: Hi Thom, yes, maybe. But I also don't like it when sapi speaks what is around me...

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
Hi Tom. I didn't literally mean Eamon in terms of parza, actually I'm not convinced of parzing commands in an rpg. I only meant in the sense of a single centralized location like Eamon's main hall, from which a number of adventures could be accessed, and onto which more adventures could be added which could then all be undertaken with the same character. I'd love the writing adventuresw option, sinse it's something I've very much always fancied doing, but do not have the skills required. I have considdered writing a gamebook, and even have a plot, story, setting and several scenarios in mind, however I've yet to find a coherent way of creating a section plan, - even if writing in plane text, to show which section links to which and keep track of which bits of the book need writing. A tree diagram would be ideal, but as two years of formal logic showed me, representing tree diagrams in textual form is a right pest! especially with a long tree. This could of course just be me and my abysmal spacial/tabular logic understanding. Anyway, the point is adventure creation would rock if possible and the Eamon model would be the best for that.

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
Hi, Not exactly. I am thinking of something strictly roll playing based where you create a game charactr that is a dwarf, elf, human, gnome, etc and work your way throughout a constantly expanding game world. Now and then I would update the game with new adventures and quests to embark upon which would make this a constantly growing and expanding game. In one adventure you might have to slay a vampire that is attacking the citizens of a town you happened upon in your travels. In another you might have to rescue a princess from a band of goblin raiders. I'm just shooting ideas from the hip here, but I want to create something that is like table top Dungions and Dragons that you can play on your PC, cell phone, Pacmate, etc. Pranav Lal wrote: Thomas, Are you refering to writing a game like the ones found at http://www.ffproject.com?

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
Hi, At this point I am not thinking of this being a commercial venture. More just a fun little side project we can all join in and put together. I can do the coding and the community can help submit ideas, stories, suggestions, and experiences. Who knows I might even release it as open source, but no promises about that last. As far as an engine goes I will be writing it from scratch in C or C++. One of the reasons I have considered using a text based RPG engine in the first place is so that I have a game thatI can port to any device where I might like to play the game. I know the request for mobile phone games is in high demand and from my research text based games is about the easiest thing to port to Pacmates and phones running Windows Mobile. I am a big open source user myself using Linux a lot, and again text based games are the easiest to port to that platform. So I have high hopes that perhaps this text based RPG could be a research project into targeting multiple operating systems and devices if nothing else. Pranav Lal wrote: The idea has merrit.

My first character got the Legion automatticly which is an evil faction, but on my second character I may choose the brootherhood. Also I think I've taken an area over from another faction and gained 1 VXP for it. Might try it in school tomorrow and see if it lives up to it's name an MMO for working people.

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about new text adventures.
Hi, Yes. The thing to keep in mind is that if I were to add sounds and music I would not be able to release this as a free project. I was sincerely hoping to make this a free venture, and if I have to pay for sounds/music then I have to charge for those additions to the game which isn't what I had planned for. Also one of the goals I really want to try with this game is begin opening USA Games up to multiple platforms. I did a lot of research this passed year, and I discovered the only realistic way to do that is to use simple user interfaces like text and as little proprietary operating system specifics as possible. Making cross platform games is difficult unless you want to use something like SDL ESpeak, and other open source technologies instead of Sapi, DirectX, etc. So I'll start with something simple and work from there. dark wrote: My thoughts exactly. the point is it's a text adventure, so it's all about the writing quality.
