Re: [Audyssey] game objects in memory
Willem; Not quite true, unless I'm not understanding you properly… We're not actually talking about any angles being displayed to the user here but working with angles in the engine itself, and interpreting those angles either explicitly or relatively to show / affect the placement / orientation of game objects as well as some behind-the-scenes uses in game play for the user.

Re: [Audyssey] game objects in memory
I think there is too much cconverting back and forth. When debugging you can convert the angle before displaying, but besides that there is no need to have angles in degrees.

Re: [Audyssey] More help with world of legends spoiler inside.
If you've not been levelling energy you might have a problem here sinse yes, special attacks are the way to go, in fact there are a couple of the special attacks you get from heaven which are waay over powered and can pretty much slaughter anything (the rune king was actually quite disappointing in this regard). Also, I'd advise checking armour and weapon stats carefully, sinse accept for a couple of the later special armours, much of the time it's better to craft your own weapons and armour than to buy them. I can't remember if this is true of the light armour, but it might be. Also, using potions can be helpful as well and oncemore, try crafting your own.

[Audyssey] a new way for blind pilots and gamers in general to communicate
Hello all, Recently, I opened a TeamTalk server for the blind. The server has several channels related to blind-accessable games, as well as microsoft’s flight simulator, among others that are unrelated to gaming spasificly.

Re: [Audyssey] game objects in memory
Hi Willem; I guess I'm confused as to what you're saying here, so perhaps you can elaborate?… I need to work between the two modes constantly. In order to convert an angular measurement in degrees into a unit vector, and vice versa, I sure do need to use radians. If you know of another way to do this, then can you share?… And, as I said, in order to stay sane while working with the code for vectors associated with objects and their rotation in an engine, I definitely need to use angular measurements in degrees. So what am I missing here? Yes, there's a lot of converting going on, but without using radians, I know of no other way to move between an angle in degrees and it's associated unit vector.

In the Jedi Knight games they would fail under water, and you had to depend on hand to hand combat or force ability to fight the dianogas and other sea creatures underwater. In the Phantom Menice Obi-Won drops his light saber in the swamp just after they escape the Trade Federation ship at the beginning of the movie and his light saber temperarily gets shorted out. So there is something of a case that can be made they generally don't work underwater. That's not to say perhaps Luke Skywalker or anyone else built a better design that does work underwater. In fact, building your own light saber is one of the tests of a Jedi Knight. On 12/12/10, Darren Duff duff...@gmail.com wrote: Actually, I think light sabers do work under watter.

Re: [Audyssey] mysteries of the syth
Hi Muhammed, Ummm...Speaking strictly as a Star Wars purest hear, why on earth would you want to ruin the game by doing something like that? I mean when I actually sink my teeth into Mysteries of the Sith I'm going to be trying my best to recreate the original game in an accessible format with maybe a few miner changes or details thrown in. For example, the original Mysteries of the Sith game didn't feature Mara's force bubble ability, and I plan to add that to the game since it is one of her widely documented force abilities. In a case like that it enhances the game play as it makes it more ttrue to the Star Wars universe. What you are suggesting, however, is so far off the mark it would absolutely kill the game. At least it would ruin it for a purest like me. Cheers! On 12/13/10, Shiny protector muhamme...@googlemail.com wrote: If Thomas does that, I'd make up my new one. Lite saber.

[Audyssey] exciting pipe blast chamber gameplay
Hay all I just want to tell you something real exciting. It often happens that I run out of ammo and then I have to hit a thug with my fists. When a thug is active, I often try to quickly find the correct pipe before killing him with my fists but that does not work always. So it often happens that if I hit a thug with fists, that my hammer hitting accuracy is no longer 100 percent because by the time the thug died, I accidentally hit my control key once or twice. So I have tried something in the past a lot of times without success. Now, I am happy to tell you all that today, for the first time I managed to kill a thug with fists without the correct pipe without my hammer hitting accuracy lowered at all! If a thug appears and I realize that I do not have the correct pipe, What I do is: I press my control keys rapidly a few times and then I slow down, pressing the control keys more slowly. And today for the first time I managed to kill a thug that way without lowering my hammer hitting accuracy. I really feel good about it. Its tricky to accomplish it, but I have managed it twice today. My stats follows: ***Statistics for Game Started on 2010/12/13 10:29:41 PM Final Score: 2824451; not high enough to reach your local top ten You beat the game! Congratulations!

Maybe something which could be introduced in an update of Packman would be a handy beep packman sound which would let you know where the safe place is, I'm sure it moves when it knows I'm not looking?

I really want to go into programming and make it a job though if I'm having trouble understanding programming manuals it makes such a goal seem unachieveable. Then, once I manage to formulate these concepts in my head, how do I make a game out of it and turn it into code and make sounds do what I want, etc. However, for those of you who write in Inform, which do you use to write it? Notepad and or a text editor and then compile it within the Inform program? Also, even though inform is the simple programming language, what does one start a game off with. Creating a room? Because I notice at the beginning of Inform games there's release information and extention inclusions.

I mean when I actually sink my teeth into Mysteries of the Sith I'm going to be trying my best to recreate the original game in an accessible format with maybe a few miner changes or details thrown in. For example, the original Mysteries of the Sith game didn't feature Mara's force bubble ability, and I plan to add that to the game since it is one of her widely documented force abilities. In a case like that it enhances the game play as it makes it more ttrue to the Star Wars universe. What you are suggesting, however, is so far off the mark it would absolutely kill the game. At least it would ruin it for a purest like me. Cheers! On 12/13/10, Shiny protector muhamme...@googlemail.com wrote: If Thomas does that, I'd make up my new one. Lite saber.

Re: [Audyssey] mysteries of the sith
As a fellow star wars purist, I have to agree that it doesn't fit. But for all the other star wars geeks out there, here's a hypothetical question. Would it be too far-fetched to have a weapon that is somewhere between the lightsaber and the lightwhip? The lightwhip has multiple strands and is a fusion of light leather and bescar. So by that theory, could one make say, something like that but only with one strand, more akin to some kind of flail, like a whipchain the Shaolin monks used? In short, a single long strand of material, but that had the same basic construction as a lightwhip, but a bit longer... say two or three metres, since that is from what I recall longer than your average saber? --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

[Audyssey] My future TeamTalk server
Hello all, For those who didn't read my previous messages on this matter, in the very near future, I will be opening a teamtalk server for the blind that will serve as a place to, for lack of a better word, chill. There will be channels for gamers to talk while playing spasific games(more channels for spasific games can be added), as well as other channels for less spasific subject matter. The perpice of this thread is to find out the level of demand for this server? I'm asking because I will have to go through our ISP to open the required ports, as well as the requirement for me to run a computer 24/7 to keep the server available all the time. Understand, I have no problem doing this, but it will require a level of commitment on my part, so I am wondering if there's enough interest. Also, let me know if you have any ideas regarding channels, and I can add them. Anyway, Reply if you're in to the idea! thanks guys, Nick -- Nick Helms I will not lie, cheat, or steal, or tolerate those who do. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

The server has several channels related to blind-accessable games, as well as microsoft’s flight simulator, among others that are unrelated to gaming spasificly. More to the point, I welcome anyone who wishes to socialize with other gamers/flight simmers to the server. I hope that it will become a place where much good conversation can be had, as well as some friendly competition and the exchange of ideas. Use the information below to connect using teamtalk. IP: 68.0.1.0 Port: 10333 I look forward to seeing some of you on the server. Connect and have fun!

Re: [Audyssey] Review of Pirate memory game
Hi Lori. About the pirate memory review I'm not sure, it was originally from blind cool tech so you might w3ant to search for it there. As to the Klango points and games business, if you go to the programs menue and look for games you'll find the game mole no more. You can play the demo version and first two levels for free (there's also a page about it on audiogames.net). Klango points are basically like donater points for Klango and can be used to pay for various things such as audio avatars and file hosting space, that's why the game, mole no more is paid for this way, it's just how the Klango currency system works. It works out at roughly five dollars for the game, which for a basic arcade smacker is okay. You can buy Klango points fairly easily (in fact it's more like currency conversion), from the Klango website or by using the buy points option. Hth. Beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] exciting pipe blast chamber gameplay
I personally only shoot thugs if I am seriously running short of time finding a pipe, ie, on the higher difficulty levels. what I usually do is just remember how many punches you need to knock out a thug and just press that many times to avoid my accuracy going down.

Onething that may help you is to find the correct pipe, then slug him out. Best Regards, Hayden -Original Message- From: gamers-boun...@audyssey.org [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of NIcol Sent: Monday, December 13, 2010 3:24 PM To: 'Gamers Discussion list' Subject: [Audyssey] exciting pipe blast chamber gameplay Hay all I just want to tell you something real exciting. It often happens that I run out of ammo and then I have to hit a thug with my fists. When a thug is active, I often try to quickly find the correct pipe before killing him with my fists but that does not work always. So it often happens that if I hit a thug with fists, that my hammer hitting accuracy is no longer 100 percent because by the time the thug died, I accidentally hit my control key once or twice. So I have tried something in the past a lot of times without success. Now, I am happy to tell you all that today, for the first time I managed to kill a thug with fists without the correct pipe without my hammer hitting accuracy lowered at all! If a thug appears and I realize that I do not have the correct pipe, What I do is: I press my control keys rapidly a few times and then I slow down, pressing the control keys more slowly. And today for the first time I managed to kill a thug that way without lowering my hammer hitting accuracy. I really feel good about it. Its tricky to accomplish it, but I have managed it twice today.

I really want to go into programming and make it a job though if I'm having trouble understanding programming manuals it makes such a goal seem unachieveable. Then, once I manage to formulate these concepts in my head, how do I make a game out of it and turn it into code and make sounds do what I want, etc. However, for those of you who write in Inform, which do you use to write it? Notepad and or a text editor and then compile it within the Inform program? Also, even though inform is the simple programming language, what does one start a game off with. Creating a room? Because I notice at the beginning of Inform games there's release information and extention inclusions.
