Re: [Audyssey] seeking Anacreon players
Well, an inicial look suggests that the windows version at least wll work with Hal, much in the same way smugglers did. I'm also however trying the transcendence game mentioned on the website for interest's sake. I suspect that despite being another space sim game it'll be too graphical for screen readers, but it's worth a try. As for Annacreon, I think I'll need to look the manual over. The interface looks okay, but as you said yourself, it's a complex game. Beware the grue!

[Audyssey] Annacreon fleets help
Well as I said, the map interface seems fine. I downloaded the windows version, and started a game in the pirates of jecata scenario, sinse that was recommended for new players, and I also downloaded the doss manual and read the tutorial section.l The one thing I'm having trouble with now is fleet deployment. i can view the map, world information and send probes, but I am rather confused at the fleet creation window. Which do I need to click on first? and how can I input numbers into the various columns? Any advice would be much appreciated.

i DID IN FACT WRITE A TUTORIAL FOR aNAcreon a while back. I don't know if I still have it; it would be on an older machine if so. I'll look around for it and repost it, or post it to the files section of the group if I find it.

Re: [Audyssey] Annacreon fleets help
When you enter the fleet window, you are positioned on the fighters column. Remember, there are two rows, the upper is the fleet, the bottom is the source of ships, i.e. a planet or another fleet. Hitting up-arrow transfers all available ships or resources to the fleet, down transfers all to the source. Use the right arrow to go across the columns. If you hit enter, you can type in a specific number, such as 500 and hit enter again to set the number. The columns are in the following order, which you pretty much have to just memorize: fighters hunter-killers jump ships jump transports penetrators star ships transports men ninjas ambrosia chemicals metals supplies trilium In the Windows version, you can't scroll to the right column by going left from the left, so you'll have to go all the way across with arrow keys. I haven't played in quite a while, so I hope I've remembered things correctly.

Re: [Audyssey] fallthru
Hi Rick, Sure. The game is available on the Interactive Fiction Archive. Go to www.ifarchive.org, navigate to the games/pc directory, and there'll be a file named fallthru.zip. That's the game. The one thing which might confuse you is that the ifarchive links aren't quite as friendly as they might be. They all start with ifarchive on every page. So it'll be something like if-archive/games, and on the next page ifarchive/games/pc Hope this helps, Zack. On Sun, Jan 17, 2010 at 12:52:19PM -0500, Rick wrote: Hi list.

Re: [Audyssey] fallthru
Shame textmode isn't working, they'd certainly been up a while when i uploaded fallthru from there. I've zipped it however and stuck it on sendspace though you can find it at http://www.sendspace.com/popup_directlink.html Unusually for me, I didn't seem to have the streight zipped version I downloaded originally myself from textmode, so had to just delete the and sssl files with my saved game, then zip the hole thing. If you create a new game and start streight off it should be fine though. if text mode doesn't come back soon, perhaps someone would be kind enough to host the file more perminantly. Beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Annacreon fleets help
Hi Dark, One thing which might help this situation of having to remember the order of columns is if Hal has any way to assign a custom highlight attribute or something similarly worded. The selected item is usually highlighted in a different color from all the rest. Hope this helps, Zack.

Re: [Audyssey] fallthru
There is, but the baf's page is a bit useless compared to the one which used to be on textmode which had far more about the game. Stil, I've added a link to the audiogames.net entry, which A, gives another place to download it, and B, might encourage someone to write a review on bafs. I'd be very interested to know if any of those other games in the pc section of the If archive stand out enough from your normal Zcode and tads type stuff enough to deserve their own pages on audiogames.net too.

Re: [Audyssey] seeking Anacreon players
Hi James, You expand your empire by conquering new worlds visible on the map. Those will create new resources for you if you designate them properly and if they're of a high enough technology level. Tech level itself increases gradually, though if you have any worlds designated as universities they'll work specifically on new research for you. Also, realize that if you conquer a primitive world its level will begin a rapid rise as it is forced to integrate with the rest of the empire. Finally, if you accidentally redesignate your capital to be a world with lower technology level than the current one, planets will actually regress. Again, I really think reading the Dos manual is an excellent idea, as it explains things in far better detail than I could. Best, Zack.

Re: [Audyssey] Annacreon fleets help
Re: fleet deployment, Zach is right about the custom highlight assign (jfw term). This provided some more specific information, even reading the columns, at least the numbers in them when you arrow over them. In order to send a fleet to a planet, you have to use the fleet/deploy command. You will be presented with the list of available fleets at your current location. Once you've selected the proper fleet, you hit enter, then use your arrow keys to move to the desired target world to send the fleet on its way. For instance, if you're sending a fleet from your capital world at 0,0 to a world at -3,2, you will have to hit your left arrow three times and your up arrow twice, then hit enter. Depending on the composition of the fleet, it will take one or three turns to arrive, until which time you won't have any attack options at the target worlds.

Re: [Audyssey] Annacreon fleets help
Hi Guys, Okay, the fleet deployment mechanism is one of those areas of the game where access isn't as good as it could be. In this case, it's a cludgy interface which could do with improvement in the game itself, but for now we're stuck with it. Here are the steps to get a fleet deployed: 1. Go to fleet-deploy, and set up the contents however you like. 2. Immediately after hitting enter or clicking okay on the setup screen, go to fleet-set destination. It should be enabled. Select it. 3. This is the tricky part: move the cursor to the world you want to send it to and hit enter. The trick is that you won't have any way of being absolutely sure the cursor is on the world, as the fleet status screen obscures the map coordinates. The best thing to do is just to remember the best sequence of arrow key presses to get you from the start to the destination. Hit enter. Read the status to be sure it's right: unfortunately, world names aren't listed, so you'll just need to rely on coordinates. There is probably a shortcut or two that you can use once you're familiar with the interface. I'm thinking in particular of the item on the view menu which displays a list of worlds, but for now this'll get you started. One reason I prefer the Dos version is that it'll actually prompt you for the destination coordinates instead of forcing you to use the map. It also accepts names as destinations. Hope this helps, Zack. On Sun, Jan 17, 2010 at 03:54:33PM -0500, James Howard wrote: Your having the same problem I'm having.

[Audyssey] anacreon?
Hi, I tok a look at the anacreon game. Are there any games like this but based on lord of the rings type fantasy with wizards and magic and spells and such stuff like a dungeons and dragons type game? Josh Kennedy jkenn...@gmail.com my blog is at http://jkenn337.klangoblog.net (updated frequently). Tired of Microsoft Windows and paying thousands for screen-readers? try out NVDA, get a mac--, nvda--for Windows, or try out and switch to grml, Ubuntu, Vinux, or knoppix-adriane Linux desktops. Knoppix ubuntu and vinux-cli-max are the most accessible for beginners. also try vinux-gui and encourage those at www.cherrypal.com to use windows-xp and nvda knoppix-adriane Vinux-cli-max or grml so all blind people can have an accessible computer. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Annacreon fleets help
Funny Zack, that problem of the fleet command obscuring the interface didn't turn up at all with hal, sinse the auto reading vf simply read the coordinates after each command. Saying that though, I stil couldn't seem to set the destination properly which was irritating. I do believe however there is a right click menue which might help, I'm looking through the commands and manual details at the moment. As for the Dos version, I tried it, but couldn't actually get a scenario to start for some reason. Beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Annacreon fleets help
Hi Dark, I'm afraid the only thing you can do is practice. The set of steps I outlined is pretty exacting: any deviation will probably mess things up. I know that it is possible to play, definitely. If I could figure out why the Windows version acts oddly on my computer I'd be there. As for Dos, you need to first select game-new game... and load a scenario, and then select game-begin to actually start it. Hope this helps, Zack.

[Audyssey] C++ Development And JFW 11
Hellow, I opened the c++ development environment ready to write something, just for a bit of practice from some tutorials, but according to jaws I hadn't written anything, even though I was typing as normal. Well I closed it and went back to my notepad file I was reading from and realized I couldn't do anything properly. For example, I can't navigate the text by word or sometimes even by line unless I constantly press insert up arrow. Is there anything I need to do to be able to make jaws work with Visual c++ express edition as it should? I notice there are already scripts for it, but it's just being strange at the minute. Any ideas? Please feel free to contact me by details listed below.
