Re: [Audyssey] can anyone recommend good ps1 or ps2 emulators?
2 gigs of ram should be plenty though. not even the most advanced sighted 3 d games make use of 4 yet, so I am pretty sure that a mere emulatur for an old game system should be able to run smoothly with less than that. regards chrissy --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] philips sgc2910 game pad qquestion
if its got a driver you should install it. weird. if you turn off error reporting and critical error reporting you should get if anything an actual crash from the actual driver or you may be lucky and everything will work fine. if you get a crash from the actual driver then maybe its a bug in the driver. if you have error reports on you get the stupid microsoft error which means absolutely crap. At 06:49 p.m. 28/03/2009, you wrote: I tried to get an sgc2909 but they're discontinued according to the walmart store here, so I got an sgc2910 which appears to be the same thing but wireless, for 20 bucks flat. The vibrators on it are giving me problems. I can't change the velocity of those motors from the controll pannel/game controllers. It has a page in the properties dialogue that says to move the left stick to get the vibrators to run, I can do that and I can change it to 100 percent velocity, up from 58 where it was by default, and hit apply, the motors stay on continuously that way, that's how I want it. now I can hit ok, then ok again to clcose that dialogue and I get an error about the application not being able to find the memory referenced at 0x you get the point. It's a rundll32 error. One time It didn't stopp with rundll32 and went through a don't send error for good measure, and finished off with a drwatson error, after which I exhasporatedly just rebooted my comp, which didn't help much. When I go back there again, the velocity for the vibrators are back to 58, not 100. When I open topspeed the vibrator moves more slowly than I remember the one for my recoil pad going, it just barely seems to move, and seems to perform iratically, sometimes the vibrators get going and sometimes they just click and don't go anywhere. You know how topspeed makes the vibrators go, it kicks them on and off really quick, well if thhe controller is set at 58 percent, it does that by itself, so if you have thhe game kicking the vibrators on and off, plus the controller trying to do the same thing, sometimes it vibrates and sometimes it doesn't. If that makes sence. When i close topspeed I get another rundll32 error. On my sony vaio laptop I get no error but the vibrator velocity won't save there either. It's all sluggish on topspeed and when I go back to the properties dialogue again for the controller it is again 58 percent. I have downloaded drivers from the philips website, probalby the same thing that was on the minny disk. Nothing seems to help. Anyone got any ideas? Are there similaar problems with the sgc2909? I'm having this problem on two differentg computers, but only one of those two is printing error messages, the other one just isn't letting me change settings. Hope yall can handle the typos, tis late and I think I'm a little too lazy to fix them all atm. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

[Audyssey] FINALLY!!!!
thanks to some of you I am finally getting it. it would have been fairly simple if in the begining someone had written and said you absolutely need direct x and the microsoft framwork and explained what they were Then told me where I might locate them. I have a dialup connection so I am on my third night of downloading the microsoft framwork because it is so huge and I don't want to tie up my phone for 35 hours in a row. As far as direct x I'll get that in one night but the confusion could have all been avoided had someone given me simple specific information and dirrections for what I needed. I finally got enough pointers and the correct direction, so thanks to those who helped. Well it is almost done now and after this I should be ready to try some games, maybe the ones I downloaded .

Like what exactly is happening when you install the games. What steps have you done so far and what were your results. Understand there is lots of room for error here since you aren't experienced with audio games, installing them, etc and we need details, details, details. Some other things to think about. When was the last time you upgraded Windows? Do you have the latest DirectX components? Does your computer meet all requirements listed for the game or games? Point I am getting at there could be some very common computer issues here that could be giving you problems such as not having a new enough DirectX release, maybe your Windows version is out of date and requires patches from Microsoft to be downloaded/installed, etc. Some, probably, most of us apply DirectX upgrades, Windows updates, etc frequently so usually don't run into issues with these games.

Re: [Audyssey] can anyone recommend good ps1 or ps2 emulators?
But the problem comes when it has to emulate it. Emulating a system is no easy task. Emulating the play station 2 takes way more cpu power than the regular system itself - double, or tripple, the power, to actually emulate the thing. The ps3 will require a quad core computer, most likely. contact details: email: tcwoo...@shaw.ca and others msn: the_conman...@hotmail.com skype: the_conman283 system details: Hp pavillion dv5220CA notebook pc AMD Turion(tm) 64 Mobile Technology ML-37 2.0 GHZ, 1024 mb DDR ram, Fujitsu 100 gb 4500 RPM Hard Drive, connecsant AC-link audio - Original Message - From: Chrissy chrissy31...@gmx.de To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Saturday, March 28, 2009 1:03 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] can anyone recommend good ps1 or ps2 emulators? 2 gigs of ram should be plenty though. not even the most advanced sighted 3 d games make use of 4 yet, so I am pretty sure that a mere emulatur for an old game system should be able to run smoothly with less than that. regards chrissy --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] FINALLY!!!!
Hi tony. Not all games need the net framework, and many require different versions of direct X (though if you get the latest one you'll be fine). Any given game should tell you what you need on your pc to try it. Many games can for example be run without the net framework, I know this sinse for a while I couldn't get earlier versions of net framework to run on my pc so was restricted in my selection of games. I suggest you give some of them a try, particularly those by Bsc, Gma, lworks, Blind adrenaline and Draconis. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] FINALLY!!!!
As I said Tony, try Jim Kitchin's games found at http://www.kitchensinc.net/ Download the winkit file first and install it. This will create an environment for running Jim's games, pluss install various components. Jim's games range from self-voicing versions of classic games like monopoly, to sports games, quizzes arcade action and racing games. they also have the advantage of being A, free, and B, quite small in size, so won't take too long for you to download on your dile up connection. while your waiting, you could also try some brouser based games or gamebooks on the internet, which may be played directly in internet explorer, firefox or whatever web brouser your using, just using your screen reader. I'd particularly recommend sryth, www.sryth.commm, the fighting fantasy project, http://www.ffproject.com/ and age of fable http://www.apolitical.info/webgame/index.php?mode=0 You can also find many online games which require no downloads by checking the database at www.audiogames.net, just look for gamebooks, and games listed as on the online platform. hth.

Re: [Audyssey] I give!!!!
Most games give system requirements, and installation instructions, and a lot is covered on just about every audiogames page thanks in part to dark, richard and a few others. Had you just taken the time to explore the audiogames website and read some game documentation instead of trying things for about 2 seconds, giving up and acting like a victim like you're doing now, you probably would have been in business long ago. I can understand that not everyone is a computer jenius, and odds are I don't have too many friends here due in part to a fiasco on my part a while back, but I don't like to see others blamed for one person's falts. So take it easy, quit playing the role of a victim and you'll get a lot farther in what you try to do. Appologies to the mods for borderline flaming. Having said that there are a lot of online games and offline text games such as world of legends that can be played without framework and other such things, as well as very basic games like tournament and probably a few others. Usually the truly good ones have some requirements attached to them though. -- From: Anthony Vitale avital...@prodigy.net Sent: Saturday, March 28, 2009 9:53 AM To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Subject: Re: [Audyssey] I give thanks Nick for your offer, I am finally getting it. it would have been fairly simple if in the begining someone had written and said you absolutely need direct x and the microsoft framwork and explained what they were Then told me where I might locate them.

Hi Anthony, Yeah, those are two very important updates to have.

Well a very good day to you to Mr. Shadow Dragon, Your note demonstrates a lot of arrogance for someone who uses an alias instead of their own name to represent themselves.

Re: [Audyssey] FINALLY!!!!
I find this very strange in a way, but installation instructions are generally found in the user's manual that comes with the games you download. The reason I find this strange is this: In order to read the user's manual, you have to install the game. Now, if you have already installed it, do you need to know how? The manual is found in the folder into which the game was installed. I think that, in the case of a CD from which you install the game, the user's manual should be a separate file that you can read before installation. If you download a game from a site, the user's manual should be available on that site to get you started correctly.

Re: [Audyssey] FINALLY!!!!
HORRAY good for you some one with some common sens thank god for rational people!!! Tonye At 03:41 PM 3/28/2009, you wrote: I find this very strange in a way, but installation instructions are generally found in the user's manual that comes with the games you download. The reason I find this strange is this: In order to read the user's manual, you have to install the game. Now, if you have already installed it, do you need to know how? The manual is found in the folder into which the game was installed. I think that, in the case of a CD from which you install the game, the user's manual should be a separate file that you can read before installation. If you download a game from a site, the user's manual should be available on that site to get you started correctly.

Re: [Audyssey] FINALLY!!!!
hmm this update to directx has the latest xna libs so issues with the entombed libs crashing directx games untill they are reinstalled will not work. in fact xna was faster on my system after the upgrade. As long as your dotnet family and 3.5 service packs are updated and you have the directx security update installed that is. if not then its best to install all those first then uninstall and reinstall the xna 3.0 libs then upgrade directx.

Re: [Audyssey] FINALLY!!!!
Hi tony. If your looking for adventure type games, then you might definitely want to check out the catagories on audiogames.net for gamebooks, as well as the sites I mentioned such as Sryth. For other games once you get direct X installed (which shouldn't be too much of a problem at all), I can suggest trying Shades of Doom from Gmahttp://www.gmagames.com/ (an action/exploration shooter title), and Sarah from pcs. http://www.pcsgames.net/ I can also strongly recommend smugglers 3 and 4 from Nielsbaur games. http://www.nielsbauergames.com/index.html These are scifi trading and adventure stratogy games, --- which, though not intended to be accessible, have proved extra compatible with screen readers, and the creater of the games has also included compatibility features when he found out the games worked.

I'd particularly recommend sryth, www.sryth.commm, the fighting fantasy project, http://www.ffproject.com/ and age of fable http://www.apolitical.info/webgame/index.php?mode=0 You can also find many online games which require no downloads by checking the database at www.audiogames.net, just look for gamebooks, and games listed as on the online platform. hth.

Re: [Audyssey] I give!!!!
I'm not officially a mod (well not on this list anyway), but might I suggest that everyone calm down here. Understanding and downloading requirements for games can be a rather daunting task when new to the hole business, I certainly had issues myself, and I imagine a dile up connection just inflates the situation, I can't think of anything more frustrating thajn spending hours downloading a game only for it not to work. I myself have asked for assistance on tech matters on many occasions, and surely that's one of the main purposes of lists like this one. On the other hand however, when asking a list of people dedicated to a specialist interest such as audiogames for advice, it might be a better idea to phrase things in the form of questions, than diatribes against audiogames in general, however frustrated a person might be with things which don't appear to work. Might I now suggest that everyone just relaxes, and leaves such details as who is or is not a victim, and educational level out of the debate! Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Mouse Support
Hi Phil, Yeah, but the only problem with that method is it is way too easy to jump on accident. You might be pushing the mouse foward to climb a rope and if you accidently move left or right suddenly you will jump off of the rope. The mouse handling in such a case is tricky and a bit complicated. Assuming I do release Beta 4 with mouse support enabled I'd like to make its functionality as simple and straight foward as possible. Smile.

Re: [Audyssey] FINALLY!!!!
I meant to stay out of this from here on in, but I just wanted to point out that pretty much every audiogame has system requirements, and usually links to what you need, aka direct x, frameworks, etc, right on the download page, or if not on the download page on the games listing in their product catalog or something similar. From there, installing is pretty simple what with the windows installer and such that we have now, and winzip.

Hey Tony, Actually, the .NET Framework is only required for newer games such as Rail Racer, Mysteries of the Ancients, 3D Velocity, and some other games built using the Microsoft .NET platform. You will find many older games by GMA, Jim Kitchen, BSC, and others are written in Visual Basic 6 and can be installed and run on XP without any additional components to be installed.

Re: [Audyssey] FINALLY!!!!
Hi Tony, I'm not Dark but I can give you some ideas of games to try out. I have no idea if these are of any interest to you, but installing these games should be easy since they should install and run without requiring any upgrades. Perhaps my favorite games are developed by GMA Games. Some games are free, some are commercial, but I've never had any problems with their titles. They make free games such as Solitare, Mine Buster, and some commercial action games such as Shades of Doom, Tank Commander, and Lonewolf. There web site is http://www.gmagames.com Another game company I like is BSC Games. They make games such as Pipe, Troopenum, and Hunter. Their web site is http://www.bscgames.com Finally, there are some games that were produced by DanZ Games. Dan Z is out of business, but you can get the files as well as the game patches from my web site http://www.usagamesinteractive.com/games.php and I think you might like these games.

Re: [Audyssey] I give!!!!
Hello Shadow Dragon, While I certainly understand your position, your frustration, etc I think it is better in the long run if we try to help Anthony rather than attacking him. In my conversations with Anthony on and off list I discovered we are dealing with someone who isn't a very skilled computer user to begin with. Just a few days ago Anthony had a problem selecting items using the combo box on the audiogames.net web site. After talking with him off list I discovered he wasn't aware he needed to press enter on the combo box to get Window Eyes to disable MSAA/forms mode so he can use the combo box on a web page. To some that sounds like a very stupid mistake, some might think of Anthony as an idiot, but he simply has not had the same level of training that some of us had. Therefore we have to walk him through this not assuming anything, taking anything for granted, and when giving instructions give him detailed instructions to him as a totally new user to the computer. Let's put it this way. If you knew someone recently whent blind, gave him/her a new computer with a screen reader on it, would you expect him or her to know how to use the screen reader, browse the web, install games, whatever the first day? Probably not. I know I certainly didn't learn all I know over night. I did however work hard to learn all I could about computers, and years later I am very skilled at using them.

[Audyssey] Training and tutorials was: I give!!!!
Hi Tom. Interested to read what you said about training sinse to be perfectly honest I never had any, I just worked things out as different things involving computers came up which I wanted to do. It started with brousing a Cd rom for the DD 2nd edd rules when I was finishing secondary school, sinse up until that point I'd only ever used ms word and my documents. Then, when I got to uni, I started on outlook express and using the net, and I oh a lot of debt to the Hal version 5.1 manual for letting me know about basic concepts like list boxes, buttons, page refresh etc. In my second year in 2003, I discovered legend of the green dragon and a couple of other online games, as well as using winamp to play various formats of music and in my third year (in 2004), I discovered interactive fiction and mucked about downloading, installing and playing those. It wasn't really until 2006 that I started on audiogames, which also got me into the habbit of installing programs and components and such, not to mention finding out the background information about said programs by asking on forums, reading on the net, and having chats with some of my computer science studdying friends. the point of all this, is I wonder if it would be worth having a basic tutorial on audiogames.net, --- or another site, detailing some of the essentials of computer knolidge necessary to play audiogames, to answer the qu3estions of people like Antony, and indeed myself three years ago. just a thought.

This imho is a shame, sinse Lords of the galaxy has some of the best sounds I've heard in an audiogamee, and if some of the game balancing issues like the exchange cash option and using space trucks to transport anywhere were removed, or at least tweaked, it has the potential to be a really interesting multiplayer game. Ditto with Galaxy ranger, though in the case of that game, I'd just like to see some improvements, such as actual features on the map, and maybe some different units or the ability to build extra bases. While I know we've got Sound Rts for serious stratogy, I stil do like the stratogy/action mix of galaxy ranger, and would love to see some upgrades to the game. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Mouse Support
i don't like the idea of only having it in expert mode... what about a option to enable / disable it? i whould really prefer jumping with the mouse. -Mensagem original- De: Phil Vlasak p...@pcsgames.net Para: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Data: Sabado, 28 de Março de 2009 20:52 Assunto: Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Mouse Support Hi Thomas, It still would be interesting to try jumping with just the mouse. How about only having that ability in expert mode? Phil - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Saturday, March 28, 2009 6:15 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Mouse Support Hi Phil, Yeah, but the only problem with that method is it is way too easy to jump on accident. You might be pushing the mouse foward to climb a rope and if you accidently move left or right suddenly you will jump off of the rope. The mouse handling in such a case is tricky and a bit complicated. Assuming I do release Beta 4 with mouse support enabled I'd like to make its functionality as simple and straight foward as possible. Smile.

I do think moving the mouse forward then over would mirror what your character is trying to do , Jump up and over a crevice.

Re: [Audyssey] FINALLY!!!!
GMA tank commander is really fun too, as is mota, even though it's still in beta. - Original Message - From: dark To: Gamers Discussion list Sent: Saturday, March 28, 2009 5:04 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] FINALLY Hi tony. If your looking for adventure type games, then you might definitely want to check out the catagories on audiogames.net for gamebooks, as well as the sites I mentioned such as Sryth. For other games once you get direct X installed (which shouldn't be too much of a problem at all), I can suggest trying Shades of Doom from Gmahttp://www.gmagames.com/ (an action/exploration shooter title), and Sarah from pcs. http://www.pcsgames.net/ I can also strongly recommend smugglers 3 and 4 from Nielsbaur games. http://www.nielsbauergames.com/index.html These are scifi trading and adventure stratogy games, --- which, though not intended to be accessible, have proved extra compatible with screen readers, and the creater of the games has also included compatibility features when he found out the games worked. I hope you enjoy them. Feel free to come back if you have any questions. Beware the Grue! Dark.

Re: [Audyssey] Training and tutorials was: I give!!!!
Hi. You could probably just use, what's his name, Michael Fare, though it might be spelled Fair, or some other way, personal power thingy. - Original Message - From: dark To: Gamers Discussion list Sent: Saturday, March 28, 2009 8:04 PM Subject: [Audyssey] Training and tutorials was: I give Hi Tom. Interested to read what you said about training sinse to be perfectly honest I never had any, I just worked things out as different things involving computers came up which I wanted to do. It started with brousing a Cd rom for the DD 2nd edd rules when I was finishing secondary school, sinse up until that point I'd only ever used ms word and my documents. Then, when I got to uni, I started on outlook express and using the net, and I oh a lot of debt to the Hal version 5.1 manual for letting me know about basic concepts like list boxes, buttons, page refresh etc. In my second year in 2003, I discovered legend of the green dragon and a couple of other online games, as well as using winamp to play various formats of music and in my third year (in 2004), I discovered interactive fiction and mucked about downloading, installing and playing those. It wasn't really until 2006 that I started on audiogames, which also got me into the habbit of installing programs and components and such, not to mention finding out the background information about said programs by asking on forums, reading on the net, and having chats with some of my computer science studdying friends. the point of all this, is I wonder if it would be worth having a basic tutorial on audiogames.net, --- or another site, detailing some of the essentials of computer knolidge necessary to play audiogames, to answer the qu3estions of people like Antony, and indeed myself three years ago. just a thought.
