Re: [Audyssey] Short Mysteries of the Sith Preview
Hi Ben, Yes, I know that, but if you look in the manual you'll see that a, s, d, and w are alternate arrow keys for MOTS. Those were there for lefthanded users as well as they were helpful in allowing you to use the left hand for movement and the mouse for other stuff too. Which brings up another point. As you pointed out the fire key was the control key. Unfortunately, we need stuff like right to next 90 or left to next 90 which requires an extra modifier with the arrow keys. Therefore I moved the fire key to the spacebar where I personally think it belongs in the first place. Smile. On 12/9/10, Ben gamehead...@aol.co.uk wrote: Er, that isn't quit true.

Re: [Audyssey] Short Mysteries of the Sith Preview
Hi William, I absolutely have no idea. Obviously my main priority is to get MOTA out the door and then tackle Raceway. If I squeeze a little time in now and then for this game great, but right now I just did a little experimentation with the G3D engine to see what needs to be done to create a game like Mysteries of the Sith. As you can tell the engine itself is up to the task. Unfortunately, I have two major releases to finish before tackling this game head on. Smile.

So were you deflecting the blaster bolts back at the trupers or were you cutting them down? IF you were cutting them down with the saber you need a awesome lightsaber slashing sound.

Re: [Audyssey] questions about world of legends
Train. everytime you level, you'll be asked to train either attack, defense energy or magic. I usually went for going equal on all of them. If you just level and hit 1 the first option only your attack will go up. I believe defense = how much damage vs the enemy's attack you take, and armour = how much damage is deflected, so having both high is probably a good idea. Even if you run out, you can drink potions to restore energy and mana in battle anyway. Beware the Grue!

[Audyssey] nearing a wall in fps games
Hi Thomas, One thing to consider, the GMA engine does collision detection one step before hitting a wall. It then plays the near wall sound if available. That is why you get a boarder sound in SOD and the different footstep sound in Sarah before hitting a wall. In the automatic walking feature, it also detects when you are a foot or two from a wall and stops you before hitting it. This leaves the player to decide when to hit a wall and when not to hit a wall. In Sarah, I take the stereo step sound with echo and reduce the echo and make it into mono to give you the feeling you are up against a wall.

[Audyssey] Masters of Doom
Hi Folks, Rairly has a book about video games been available. Here is one that just showed up on BookShare. Masters of Doom How Two Guys Created an Empire and Transformed Pop Culture by David Kushner To my taste, the greatest American myth of cosmogenesis features the maladjusted, antisocial, genius teenage boy who, in the insular laboratory of his own bedroom, invents the universe from scratch. Mastersof Doomis a particularly inspired rendition. Dave Kushner chronicles the saga of video game virtuosi Carmack and Romero with terrific brio. This is a page-turning, mythopoeic cyber-soap opera about two glamorous geek geniuses--and it should be read while scarfing down pepperoni pizza and swilling Diet Coke, with Queens of the Stone Age cranked up all the way. --MarkLeyner, author ofI Smell Esther Williams Masters of Doomis the amazing true story of the Lennon and McCartney of video games: John Carmack and John Romero. Together, they ruled big business. They transformed popular culture. And they provoked a national controversy. More than anything, they lived a unique and rollicking American Dream, escaping the broken homes of their youth to co-create the most notoriously successful game franchises in history--Doom and Quake--until the games they made tore them apart. Americans spend more money on video games than on movie tickets. Masters of Doomis the first book to chronicle this industry's greatest story, written by one of the medium's leading observers. David Kushner takes readers inside the rags-to-riches adventure of two rebellious entrepreneurs who came of age to shape a generation. The vivid portrait reveals why their games are so violent and why their immersion in their brilliantly designed fantasy worlds offered them solace. And it shows how they channeled their fury and imagination into products that are a formative influence on our culture, from MTV to the Internet to Columbine. This is a story of friendship and betrayal, commerce and artistry--a powerful and compassionate account of what it's like to be young, driven, and wildly creative. http://www.bookshare.org/browse/book/272703?returnPath=L2Jyb3dzZS9sYXRlc3Q%2F --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] game objects in memory
HI Thomas since you said that Mara passes through walls sometimes when you're at just the right angle, I'm betting that: 1. your walls are very close to the same thickness to Mara's move rate. (the distance she usually moves in a frame) 2. that it's easier or more likely that she will walk through a wall the closer you get to walking at a 45 degree angle in regard to your X and Y axes. If the above is true, then I think I know the solution, as in my last note about normalizing and magnifying. If you want to post your code, I'd sure be up for taking a look at it, and I can post mine here as well, if you'd like. -Perhaps peeps might like to see this in practice so to speak?… -Just as a quick explanation in 2D, if you have a vector that's 5 units long and goes straight along the X axis as in 5.0, 0.0 and you try to create a vector five units long on a forty five degree angle simply by defining it as 5.0, 5.0 you're actually making a vector which is longer than five units. I.E. since you're essentially mapping curves with a square coordinate system, you're actually covering more distance on a diagonal then on one of the axes. If you could turn your 5.0, 5.0 vector so it traveled straight along your X axis, you'd find that it actually went well beyond 5.0, 0.0. If you think of squares on a piece of graph paper; if you draw a line along the edge of a square, and then draw a line from one corner of the square to the other, and then measure the line, you'd see that the corner to corner line is longer than the other one. This is what's happening inside the computer. We're just working with graph paper on a very large scale! :) so there are a couple of processes we can do to properly measure the vector so that it's always the same length regardless of which direction it's traveling in. Does this make sense? There's no need to calculate in advance of where any entity will be at any given time. This is the work of the detection routine to let you know what gets touched where, rather than you needing to try to guess it ahead of time. Use small game units, and real rates of travel, realistically sized entities and features, and the detection routines should work fine.

The code is Quake C which is a flavor of the C language and only works within the context of Quake. I.E. you can't develop in any other environment with it. The Quake engine itself however, is written in straight C and is open-source so people are free to look at it or use it in their own contexts. Many current games still use flavors of the Quake engines and I believe the game that Phil just posted about, Imperial Academy, actually uses the Quake 3 engine. So the quick answer is yes, and the not so quick answer is perhaps in the future. :) Happy holidays to you and yours, and have a wonderful day!… Woohoo!

If the above is true, then I think I know the solution, as in my last note about normalizing and magnifying. If you want to post your code, I'd sure be up for taking a look at it, and I can post mine here as well, if you'd like. -Perhaps peeps might like to see this in practice so to speak?. -Just as a quick explanation in 2D, if you have a vector that's 5 units long and goes straight along the X axis as in 5.0, 0.0 and you try to create a vector five units long on a forty five degree angle simply by defining it as 5.0, 5.0 you're actually making a vector which is longer than five units. I.E. since you're essentially mapping curves with a square coordinate system, you're actually covering more distance on a diagonal then on one of the axes. If you could turn your 5.0, 5.0 vector so it traveled straight along your X axis, you'd find that it actually went well beyond 5.0, 0.0. If you think of squares on a piece of graph paper; if you draw a line along the edge of a square, and then draw a line from one corner of the square to the other, and then measure the line, you'd see that the corner to corner line is longer than the other one. This is what's happening inside the computer. We're just working with graph paper on a very large scale! :) so there are a couple of processes we can do to properly measure the vector so that it's always the same length regardless of which direction it's traveling in. Does this make sense? There's no need to calculate in advance of where any entity will be at any given time. This is the work of the detection routine to let you know what gets touched where, rather than you needing to try to guess it ahead of time. Use small game units, and real rates of travel, realistically sized entities and features, and the detection routines should work fine.

[Audyssey] Narnia games?
Hi guys, I was wondering if any of you could create any Narnia games? Basically what happens in the film well Narnia and her men fight to the death. I'll explain the stages and you could make your decision. Well, the first part of the film I watched is the king cuts the prince's hand off with this knife to reincarnate a witch. Then after that what happens is they go to battle. So, when they're at battle, they start to fight each other with swords, bow's and other stuff that helps them. In the other part of the film, this young girl, about 17 or 18 goes to knock some people off a horse. So, she springs towards, I mean walking to them, and she starts to fire some arrows. So, then what happens after she has killed a few naughty little beests, some dude knocks her over. Fortunitly, this young man, I think comes to her rescue. The young man gets rid of the enemy, and I think Narnia fancies him. Then, I thought this is the part we could play in. This young chap, about at 17 or 18 has to fight this old man. Basically, I thought of some defence techniques. You could use either weapon in this battle, sword or sheeld. The reason I say sheeld is because the young dude whacks the sheeld and the fully grown man receives a smack in his face, wouldn't that be nice, lol! Then what happens at the end of the battle, is the good dude wins. But I thought you guys could make like a fight. Your up arrow, down left and right could be to swing your sheeld, and the b key to block attacks. Then also I forgot, maybe we could have a fight with the evil witch at the first part. Then, the goodys and the bad people go and fight. I'll tell you who's in the good gang. Centaurs, humans, dwarfs, and ratkins, rat like people. So, they use the tortus technique and the balister technique in combat. Then, while the girl is on her horse, if I'm correct on that, one of the bad soldiers are on the back of the horse. This lyan comes charging at the soldier, and the soldier falls. Maybe this could be a cutscene. Then, I thought this could be the final part of the game. The bad people run away from the good people, as the good people are powerful, and nere the water, they come charging at the lyan. Then, this man made out of water comes out, and he teaches the fools a lesson, by killing them. Then, the young chap could fight the bad people with the others, and if he loses, well, he loses, but if he wins, the baddies scrender. But I've thought that you guys could make the game more challenging, by the young chap fighting the king.

Hi Philip, Well...That too is the classic catch 22. According to the License Agreement that came with Mysteries of the Sith, I just reread it, it says you can freely create mods for the game but under no circomstances can you use the sounds, musick, or graphics from this game. Question is what's the frickin' point of creating your own Star Wars mod if you have to create your own blaster sounds, Star Wars music, and draw your own graphics? Once again, that's the entire problem with the whole copyright issue for me. Yeah, I could probably could come up with lame sounds for the light sabers, blasters, stuff like that but if it doesn't sound like the official Star Wars sounds I'm not going to bother creating the game. It is not Star Wars unless a light saber sounds like a light saber and a blaster sounds like a blaster. Although, I am a musician I'm nowhere in John Williams class so I can't even begin to create music as inspiring and grand as the Star Wars music. If I go through all that work with new sounds, music, I might as well call it Space Wars. Grin. Cheers!

I think the biggest issue for them may not be the fact that you use the Star Wars brand in a free product, but rather the fact that you're technically stealing sounds from an existing game. That may get them a whole lot angrier than if you had, say, tried to make your own blaster sounds. Of course it wouldn't sound nearly as good, but still; this is my primary guess. All the same I shall be looking forward to giving it a try and attempt to offer some constructive critisism if I can.

Re: [Audyssey] Creating game levels to scale?
Hi, Hmmm...WellI have Sith light saber sounds, mostly Darth Vader's, but I don't know that I can get Darth Maul's that easily. Darth Maul's light saber is unique in that it was a duel bladed weapon and the ignition was also a bit unique. I might be able to create one that sounds similar, but for Darth Maul's actual saber effects I'd probably have to get Star Wars Obi-Wan and wrip the sounds. I'll look and see what I can do.

[Audyssey] phpAdventure
Well, hello folks. I found an interesting project on sourceforge, and since it was no longer being developed, I asked the developer if I could take over development. He agreeed, and so now, if you go to: http://phpadventure.sourceforge.net You'll find php adventure, in it's current form. What I'm wondering is: What kinds of things would folks want added to this engine, and would anyone be interested in building any web-based text-games using such a system? It's of course opensource, so anyone may download it and work on it/use it for their own purposes (provided those don't include commercial gain), so it's open to just about anything being done with it, so if folks (particularly those with php knowledge) would grab a copy and take a look, I'd certainly appreciate any feedbak. Everyone can see a sample of how it works at http://www.thesiegelsnest.us/phpadventure/ That will have the sample golden skull demo game just as soon as I get it uploaded Hope this helps, and please folks, even if you don't know php, drop by the demo and let me know what you think could make it better. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Hi, Well, thin enough the neighbors can hear a pin drop. Grin. No, seriously I set the walls on the level to 1 unit. I think this might be the source of the problem.Normally this isn't a problem with the current array based system, but when I created a sample level using the 3d coordinates Mara just walks through them. It could be that the thickness of the walls are too thin there fore she steps right over the barrier before the collision detection can check if the two are in contact with each other.

Hi, Oh, I'm sure he's just tackling five more at the moment. Grin Seriously, though, that's quite the full agenda; three large games like that, plus the Python tutorials?

On Dec 9, 2010, at 5:17 AM, Thomas Ward wrote: Hi Hayden, Actually, I'm remastering the cut scenes as well. Unlike the first Jedi Knight game in the series Mysteries of the Sith didn't use full motion vidio. That means the cut scenes were actually animations, instead of a movie, and the dialog, sounds, etc were stored in a separate *.goo file. So what I did is extracted the dialog I needed, converted them to 44100 KHZ stereo which actually doesn't sound too bad, and then mixed the dialog with higher quality sounds and music. So the cut scenes in my version are of a much higher quality than the original game. Plus since we can't actually see the game I didn't bother trying to convert the vidio to mpg, avi, or some other vidio format since this is strictly audio based. As to what I'm replacing the answer is basically everything and anything i can find a higher quality replacement for. For example, the original light saber sounds for MOTS were lame. Well, I grabbed the saber sounds from Jedi Knight II, dropped them in, and now you have 44100 KHZ light saber sounds that sound exactly like the movies instead of someones fake immatation of a light saber. Diddo for the bowcasters, blastech pistols, storm trooper rifles, etc. As for the rail gun I couldn't find a better rail gun sound so I made one using a rocket launcher sound, from another game which was of superior quality, and dropped it in. As for the doors those are really easy to come by, and since they always sound the same from game to game I located the highest quality electronic door sounds I could from the Star Wars games and dropped them in. As I said about the stone doors from the Sith temple I simply used the stone door sound from MOTA since it is already high quality and is pretty much what we need anyway. Background ambience etc that stuff is fairly generic. Any high quality cave dripping sound will do for the Sith temple just as any high quality swamp background will work for the swamp level. You see what I mean? In other words I still fully intend to maintain authentic Star Wars sounds, as much as humanly possible, but when and where possible I'm not afraid to replace or create new sounds to update the ambience to make the game more modern. The purpose here is to produce a Star Wars game on par with todays games, but still maintain the story and game play from the classic Jedi Knight games of the 90's. So in a way it will be and won't be Mysteries of the Sith as there are elements I intend to change like the sounds, remap the keyboard to free up keys for accessibility review commands, and a few things like that. The keyboard especially needed remapped, because it was totally inaccessible from a blind gamer's point of view. For example, the original JK games used a, s, d, and w to step forward, step back, turn left, and turn right leaving the right hand free to use the mouse to use the light saber. The f key activates your force power, and e cycles through force powers. Well, that's all fine and dandy if you are sighted and don't have a good solid dozen screen review commands to worry about so the a, s, d, w, and f keys had to go. The a command is for speak ammo, s toggles the sniper scope on/off, control+s reads the sniper scope battery status, control+w tells you what weapon is drawn, f speaks current direction, etc. Since most of this information is displayed on screen a sighted gamer wouldn't need commands like that, but you and I do so the keys had too be remapped no questions asked. In a way I feel a bit put out I can't make this game totally like the original, but I've just got my first lesson in why mainstream developers don't want to make accessible games. They would essentially have to make various exceptions such as remapping all the keys to create x number of access commands that speaks on screen information. That's bad for them, because the a, s, d, and w keys are often used in mainstream titles so a sighted player can use the keyboard and mouse at the same time. That's not so easy to do if you have to use the standard arrow keys and the mouse too. The only solution for a problem like that is to go with a game pad that has duel thumb sticks. At least then you can move the player around on the screen with one thumb stick and control his/her weapon with the right thumb stick or the other way around. I'm

Hi Cara, Hmmm...That makes sense. That also seams to be the problem. Mara's rate is 1 unit per frame and the walls are 1 unit thick.

I.E. since you're essentially mapping curves with a square coordinate system, you're actually covering more distance on a diagonal then on one of the axes. If you could turn your 5.0, 5.0 vector so it traveled straight along your X axis, you'd find that it actually went well beyond 5.0, 0.0. If you think of squares on a piece of graph paper; if you draw a line along the edge of a square, and then draw a line from one corner of the square to the other, and then measure the line, you'd see that the corner to corner line is longer than the other one. This is what's happening inside the computer.

This is the work of the detection routine to let you know what gets touched where, rather than you needing to try to guess it ahead of time.

Hi Darren, Mostly I was deflecting blaster shots while I was moving into saber range to cut them down. You definitely know when I cut them down as the troopers screamed when Mara scored a direct hit. As for saber cut/hit sounds I have them, but just haven't added them in yet. Remember that is only after two/three days of work. Its far far far from anything like a finished product. I just created a sample level to test out some game mechanics so far, and when I mentioned it Ben and a couple of other people wanted to hear me walking around slottering troopers. So I posted a preview of the Alpha. Actually, technically it is in pre-alpha stage since its not really a game yet. Just some code using the G3D engine to move around fire a few weapons, and some generic bad guys in rooms walking around waiting to get slottered.

Re: [Audyssey] game objects in memory
Hi Cara,
Sure no problem. below is the functions I'm using to calculate the
angle and vector Mara will travel to reach her next coordinates on the
map. However, before you ask the reason the calculations don't have a
fps or time parameter that's because I assume 1 as the frames per
second which is a slow frame rate I know. Here goes.
// Name: GetDirection (double, double, double, double).
// Description: Calculates the angle between
// two game objects.
float Calculate::GetDirection (double x1, double z1, double x2, double z2)
{
// Subtract x2 from x1
double x = x1 - x2;
// Subtract z1 from z2
double z = z2 - z1;
// Calculate theta by the arc tangent
// of -x*z
double theta = std::atan2 (-x, z);
// Now, multiply theta by 180
// and divide by PI
double direction = (theta * 180) / PI;
// Return the direction
return (float)direction;
}
// Name: GetX(double, double, double).
// Description: Calculates the next possible x vector.
float Calculate::GetX (double direction, double x, double velocity)
{
// Calculate the next x vector by

x += velocity * std::sin ((direction * PI) / 180);

return (float)x;

// Return the new z vector
return (float)z;
}
Now, looking at these functions I see I didn't use the Pythagorus
Theorem to normalize the distance which would in deed be part of the
problem. If you could remind me how to do this I'd appreciate it. In
fact, if you can rewrite the functions to do this correctly I'd
appreciate it. This will not only improve the SW game it will be a
nice little bug fix for MOTA which also uses the G3D engine too.

How are you working out which direction you'd like to have Mara travel in?
I'm assuming you're deciding based on a degree and then working out a vector
from that? How are you creating your vector from your angle? (this might be
the issue)
I.E. if you're supposed to be moving at 1 unit, then the proper vector
length if you're moving at a 45 degree angle, should be something like
0.7174, 0.7174 or some such. :) It shouldn't be 1.0, 1.0.
If it's not less than 1 on each axis, then you'll need to normalize your
vector using the Pythagorus Theorem to get it to a length of 1 unit.
Hope this makes sense and talk soon!…

Re: [Audyssey] game objects in memory

Thanks for sending this along and am happy to rewrite / send along some code. :)

Hi Cara,
Sure no problem. below is the functions I'm using to calculate the
angle and vector Mara will travel to reach her next coordinates on the
map. However, before you ask the reason the calculations don't have a
fps or time parameter that's because I assume 1 as the frames per
second which is a slow frame rate I know. Here goes.
// Name: GetDirection (double, double, double, double).
// Description: Calculates the angle between

float Calculate::GetDirection (double x1, double z1, double x2, double z2)
{
// Subtract x2 from x1
double x = x1 - x2;
// Subtract z1 from z2
double z = z2 - z1;
// Calculate theta by the arc tangent
// of -x*z
double theta = std::atan2 (-x, z);
// Now, multiply theta by 180
// and divide by PI
double direction = (theta * 180) / PI;
// Return the direction
return (float)direction;
}
// Name: GetX(double, double, double).
// Description: Calculates the next possible x vector.
float Calculate::GetX (double direction, double x, double velocity)
{
// Calculate the next x vector by
// multiplying velocity by the sine of
// direction*PI/180
x += velocity * std::sin ((direction * PI) / 180);
// Return the new x vector
return (float)x;
}
// Name: GetZ(double, double, double).
// Description: Calculates the next possible z vector.
float Calculate::GetZ (double direction, double z, double velocity)
{
// Calculate the next z vector by
// multiplying velocity by the cosine of
