[Audyssey] alteraeon
Hi oriol. Well looked at your pack and made a new character called chang just for the hell of it. A few things. It appears that loads of things happen the game does not like. The first thing that happened was the game errored out in trying to load copy of a plugin for some stupid reason. Then it decided that tts stop and history and other invalid commands would try to execute while playing. When a fight came I hit the monster and while it was all that cool I had no control of my mage during combat I also found it hardish to make a class so many options etc. I don't play muds as such as i really don't have the time though I did get the full version of the game. Your stream was, hmmm I really don't know how to describe it. Um. Oh to heck with it. It was a fully loaded piece of crap. The music was far to loud, your voice waved in and out of hearing and all the people that existed at once I could hardly know what was going on. There was music but I really couldn't tell what was really going on. I can't say this was the worst stream I have heard because that would be lying, but it was about the worst. Vertual cable may not be the best way to do this. I don't know if you cna get access to an analog soundcard or not but that or a digital recorder recording everything through speakers would work. It still would be crappy but it works because I have an hd device and use a recorder to do that. its ok for what it is but still. I hope you don't take offence but I really couldn't enjoy it though your soundpack of which I like was real good and the game almost functioned like a real environment with good stereo effects. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Whats more, free-to-play is going to become the defining business model of the next 20 years or so... depending on your level of fandom you will then either spend nothing or a very large amount of money to deepen your engagement. The traditional model of using a dedicated console... that you buy once and games that you buy is almost at the end of its life, he concluded. The former head of SCE Worldwide Studios was with Sony for the launch of the PlayStation, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable, and now sits on the advisory board for Gaikai, a cloud-based gaming company. So for Gaikai, whose technology does all the hard work and streams games to web-enabled devices be they tablets, laptops, or more traditional home-based hardware it doesnt really matter who wins the tech war as long as browsers and broadband are up to scratch. Harrison predicts that his former employers, along with Microsoft and Nintendo, will survive just fine. Thats as long as they can prove adaptable to a platform-agnostic future in which hardware isnt as important as it once was.

I must admit I'm less certain of that in terms of the Wii controllers, steering wheels, dedicated console servers etc, but we'll just then again being an online games company they are rather biased I think.

[Audyssey] USA Games Website Status
Hello Everyone, As some of you are now aware the USA Games website is currently down do to technical problems. Last week our webhost, Skynet Communications, subcontracted with another company, Dreamhost, who took over the USA Games webhosting service, for Skynet. As a result last weekend our account including files, lists, etc were moved over to one of the new Dreamhost servers. Unfortunately, yesterday there seems to have been some kind of mix up regarding our account with them and they deleted the USA Games account from their server by mistake. As we had just moved to them last week Dreamhost does not have a backup of the USA Games account, and after the transfer was completed Skynet no longer has a current backup of the USA Games account either. This has resulted in the complete and total loss of the USA Games website, mailing lists, games, and everything else to do with the USA Games website on their end. Skynet is willing to settle for financial and punitive damages to USA Games Interactive, and are working with us to get the site back up and running as soon as possible. As matters currently stand Skynet has located an older backup of our website from December which they are willing to use to restore the account to working order. At this time they are restoring that backup, moving our account back to one of their primary servers, and they expect to have the account up and running by Friday morning Eastern Standard Time. Once we know the account is setup and working using their backups I will manually reset and reinstall the account using local backups prior to the move which should get the website, lists, etc backup and running with a more or less current version of the website. We are fortunate that we do have these local backups for this sort of emergency so the crisis isn't is bad as it could have been. However, since all of this will take considerable time and effort we don't expect to be back up and online officially until Monday earliest. So we would appreciate it if you guys stay clear of the website until we make an official announcement that things are in working order once again. P.S. We would also appreciate it if you would share this news with others who you know who are not on the Audyssey mailing list and let them know what is happening.

Re: [Audyssey] console gaming almost at an end
Hi Dark, Agreed. The way console gaming has evolved interms of the new Wii controllers, the XBox Connect technology, etc I think there will still be more than enough of a market for console gaming despite what the article says. For one thing, the article completely overlooked or ignored is that newer isn't necessarily cinonimous with better. There are always going to be people who are happier with their old console, their old games, and no matter how many new cool games you come up with, create some new online style of gaming that makes consoles obsolete, there will be someone who still wants to play the old games using the old hardware. I do it all the time with my Atari 2600, NES, and Super NES consoles, because I still like them despite being old and obsolete. So saying that consoles are or will be soon at the end of their life is stretching things a bit I think. For instance, let's take Windows 7 vs XP. Well, we all know Windows 7 is the latest and newest Windows operating system available. However, it still has not convinced the majority of the Windows PC market to move away from XP. Both blind and sighted users alike generally agree Windows XP is better, they don't like this or that about Windows 7, or they just don't feel the need to spend money to upgrade both hardware and software to get Windows 7. Either way Windows XP still has the market share even though it is now 10 years old. Its not likely that this will change right away. Eventually, yes, Windows 7 will replace Windows XP, but people will hold onto XP as long as they can delaying that change as long as possible. We might compare this to how many people have PS III's and how many people like myself still play using a PS II. My point being is that the article is a hypathetical look at where the gaming market will be 10 years from now. However, that can be hard to determine at the best of times. Right now the way the global economic situation is I don't see people rushing out to buy new tech for games if we don't have a serious improvement in the next couple of years. The USA is almost bankrupt as it is, and if the dollar goes belly up the entire global economey will go straight down the toilet. So now isn't a great time to look at future projectsions when everyone is watching his her wallet closely. That doesn't even consider personal preference, and probably doesn't exclude people like myself who could care less if Sony has online games or comes out with the PS IV console next as I'm currently happy with my PS II.

Re: [Audyssey] USA Games Website Status
Wow Thomas, I won't take up too much space here other than to say I'm real sorry this has happened to you, it sounds like a real nightmare to deal with and to be polite let's just call it a monumental screw-up on the part of your host. I am glad they are working with you and are willing to compensate you for this incompetence. Very best of luck with it. Tom - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Wednesday, June 29, 2011 10:56 AM Subject: [Audyssey] USA Games Website Status Hello Everyone, As some of you are now aware the USA Games website is currently down do to technical problems. Last week our webhost, Skynet Communications, subcontracted with another company, Dreamhost, who took over the USA Games webhosting service, for Skynet. As a result last weekend our account including files, lists, etc were moved over to one of the new Dreamhost servers. Unfortunately, yesterday there seems to have been some kind of mix up regarding our account with them and they deleted the USA Games account from their server by mistake. As we had just moved to them last week Dreamhost does not have a backup of the USA Games account, and after the transfer was completed Skynet no longer has a current backup of the USA Games account either. This has resulted in the complete and total loss of the USA Games website, mailing lists, games, and everything else to do with the USA Games website on their end. Skynet is willing to settle for financial and punitive damages to USA Games Interactive, and are working with us to get the site back up and running as soon as possible. As matters currently stand Skynet has located an older backup of our website from December which they are willing to use to restore the account to working order. At this time they are restoring that backup, moving our account back to one of their primary servers, and they expect to have the account up and running by Friday morning Eastern Standard Time. Once we know the account is setup and working using their backups I will manually reset and reinstall the account using local backups prior to the move which should get the website, lists, etc backup and running with a more or less current version of the website. We are fortunate that we do have these local backups for this sort of emergency so the crisis isn't is bad as it could have been. However, since all of this will take considerable time and effort we don't expect to be back up and online officially until Monday earliest. So we would appreciate it if you guys stay clear of the website until we make an official announcement that things are in working order once again. P.S. We would also appreciate it if you would share this news with others who you know who are not on the Audyssey mailing list and let them know what is happening.

Re: [Audyssey] console gaming almost at an end
Hi Tom. well as someone who was playing double dragon advanced earlier today, the very cool gba remake of theold classic relased I think roughly six years ago, and! as someon who has games which are up to 25 years old I agree. Another thing that's totally missed, is the amount of old games stil supported by consoles. i know lots of people who have a bunch of snes, mega drive and nes titles through the Wii ware service, precisely because they want the old games but don't have the hardware anymore. This sort of thing isn't legally (or particularly efficiently), available on pc. finally, relating to your economy point, an interesting point is that new console developement seems to have just about stoppd. The nintendo 64 was released I believe in 1996, then followed the gamecube in 2001 and the wii in 2006. However, we here nothing about a new nintendo console, simply because the wii is stil going. Ditto with the playstation, and while the xbox, havng later releases than the others hasn't been out as long, I stil don't here plans for another machine. Given the combination of the economic situation, and the fact that the Wii and playstation 3 are certainly more versitile in what they can do as compared to earlier machines, eg online competition, unique control methods, net brousing, looking up information like weather etc, I doubt we'll see another console release for at least some time, - which is pretty good news for anyone who's invested in the current consoles. Myself though, I'll be sticking with my snes, mega drive and gameboy advanced aka gamecube, in fact the only way I could see myself buying a new machine is if the wii menues ecome useable so that I can play wiiware games like mega man 9 or 10, or if a decent alternative comes up similar to the gba player for psp or 3ds. As it is though, both preference and access mean I'll be sticking to my old machines for the near future. Beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Help with a Mac
josh, try putting them in the program files folder the standard folder. If this does still not work, install all the stuff including winkit in the root or the c drive in your username folder make a folder called kitchensinc and load that there. It sounds like you are using a 64bit os. I hav not got a 64bit os but its possible that the files for vb are not going in the right place syswow 64 is where all 64 bit system files go and system32 is where 32 bit files go. Again this is only from what I get off the lists since although I have the ability to run a 64 bit os I don't have a 64 bit os right now. I am not sure but you really should try to get some sort of windows emulator for the games. Failing that if you can get win xp 32 bit or win 7 32 bit and try that it may work.

Re: [Audyssey] USA Games Website Status
Hi, Well, like I said I didn't have any say in the matter. Dreamhost was subcontracted for a number of Skynet's accounts and their monumental screw up not only effected me but a number of other Skynet's clients. Needless to say after the screw up Skynet no longer subcontracts with Dreamhost, and many of the accounts, including USA Games, are now safely back on Skynet's personal machines and not subcontracted out to Dreamhost. I've made it very clear if anything like this happens again USA Games is walking and locating someone else. This situation is beyond screw up and in competence on Dreamhost's part. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] console gaming almost at an end
Hi, Yes, that's true, but I don't think the article was really looking at console sales right now. It was more of a promo or advertisement of the kinds of technology we could expect to see within the next 10 years. Like all developers they seem to believe that their new technologies will eventually whipe out the console competition and gaming will move to the internet and you can simply dialup and play using your Iphone or Android phone. Perhaps so, but I don't think that anything like that could completely whipeout the console market. New technologies usually never catch on as much as the developer expects. For example, I remember Apple being mentioned specifically in the article. Its true that Mac sales have doubled over the last three or four years, thanks to the Mac X platform, and of course their IPhone and IPod markets are doing well. However, they still have not been able to replace Microsoft as the primary operating system of choice, and Windows 7 sales are still way ahead of Mac OS 10.6 sales. On the smart phone front Google's Android phones are giving Apple's IPhone some stiff competition. My point being that if Apple or anyone else thinks they can just kick Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony out of the gaming market with a brand new internet based gaming platform they are over estimating the impact of their technology. First, PC based games have had internet or online capability for at least the last 15 years or so. Many of the new consoles have online modes which are quite popular. A new completely online gaming platform might be the way of the future, but its not exactly totally new given that internet access is becoming a part of game consoles etc already My question would be, what is so fantastic about this new gaming platform that a game console doesn't have?.

Re: [Audyssey] console gaming almost at an end
Hi Dark, Well, that was sort of my point. Every time you upgrade to a new platform there is a cost involved both for developer and customer. Sure, you can make a profit off of building a new platform, all new games for that platform, and of course updated ports for the platform, but there is also a lot of upfront research and development costs in doing that. Many times if you have a stable platform, say the Wii, it is better for the developer in the long run to stick with it for as long as possible allowing the developer to reap the maximum profit from the current technology through direct sales, licenses, etc. Now, if someone comes out with a better console and you are losing sales because of it, or you have hit the market potential for the console that's when it is time to release a brand new console to compete with the updated competition. However, there will always be a certain amount of customers who will still want to use their current, perhaps slightly older, console until the price comes down on the new console, there are more games available for the console, and there are more users who own the new console. So there tends to be a couple of years between release date and when it takes over the previous markets. For instance, the Wii can play Double Dragon and a number of other classic NES games via the Wii Ware as you mentioned. Thing is I still own the original 1980's and 1990's NES and SNES hardware and games. I'm not going to go out and buy a Wii just to play those games as I already have the games and proper hardware in the first place. Then, many of the Wii Games such as Wii Sports are ok, but I'm not all that interested in them personally. Sure I'll sit down with my family and play Wii Sports Resort or whatever now and then, but its not the kind of thing I would by for myself. A lot of the games for the Wii just aren't my thing so I don't see any need to invest in it. However, if I did want to buy a Wii the fact I could play all the old games would be a plus and be a big part of the deciding factor. Especially, if I didn't own the original hardware as many people do not any more. My point being, is that if there is a new technology that will supposably whipe out the current game consoles then it would have to provide the same number of games, be cost effective, and of course have new ports of existing games to move everyone to it. If there is some game person x happens to love and it isn't available on the new platform then the person will be less likely to buy or invest unless their is something else just as good. Games are like other forms of art, and never fully wear out. A good game will be passed on from generation to generation, and be received just as well by the next generation. Pacman, for instance, is now 30 years old. I played that game as a kid, and have seen several different versions and takes on that game. My son is going to be 7 very soon, and he loves the game. I wouldn't doubt it if when he gets to be my age his children will still be playing some Pacman varient in 25 years or so. A good game doesn't wear out, and any new technology or platform must provide a certain number of classic games like that to even grab a large majority of the market. The problem is in order torecreate, port, and sell all of those classic games will take considerable time and money that could be spent on new technology which will keep the new market fresh for those looking for something new and different to play.

Another thing that's totally missed, is the amount of old games stil supported by consoles. i know lots of people who have a bunch of snes, mega drive and nes titles through the Wii ware service, precisely because they want the old games but don't have the hardware anymore. This sort of thing isn't legally (or particularly efficiently), available on pc. finally, relating to your economy point, an interesting point is that new console developement seems to have just about stoppd. The nintendo 64 was released I believe in 1996, then followed the gamecube in 2001 and the wii in 2006. However, we here nothing about a new nintendo console, simply because the wii is stil going. Ditto with the playstation, and while the xbox, havng later releases than the others hasn't been out as long, I stil don't here plans for another machine. Given the combination of the economic situation, and the fact that the Wii and playstation 3 are certainly more versitile in what they can do as compared to earlier machines, eg online competition, unique control methods, net brousing, looking up information like weather etc, I doubt we'll see another console release for at least some time, - which is pretty
Re: [Audyssey] USA Games Website Status
Hi Shane, Smile. Well, there are definitely a lot of other names I could call Dreamhost but this being a public list, and me being a moderator, I can't exactly let loose with my exact thoughts. Calling them incompetent morons is about the nicest thing I can say about them right now. Fortunately, for me I have everything on my 500 GB storage drive, along with my current source code, etc and so Saturday, when I have the time, I can upload and reset my account to pretty much the way it was a week ago before everything got blasted. I think what really burns me is I had just installed and setup the USA Games blog etc, and was ready to announce it this week, when Dreamhost nuked the account. Meaning all the work and blog posts I put up Wednesday morning are toast. A total waist of time on my part. I hate wasting time for nothing. Gr.

Re: [Audyssey] Help with a Mac
Hi Shaun, UmYou seem to have or forgotten or misunderstood Josh's message but he told you specifically he is running a 64bit OS. He said he is running Windows 7 64 on anIntel based Mac Pro viaBootcamp. Since he is running Windows 7 why on earth would he need a Windows emulator? He doesn't need an emulator when he is running the actual OS itself. Bootcamp allows someone to run another operating system like Windows 7 side by side with Mac OS allowing him to use either OS. If you actually knew anything about Mac computers you wouldn't have mentioned running an emulator as you did. Please, for the 1,000th time would you actually give advice about something you actually know something about rather than what you think you know? As for software emulation and emulators in general they suck. They don't always work, and there are better solutions. Something like Virtualbox for Mac OS is a better solution as it allows a person to install and create virtual drives running Windows, Linux, whatever side by side with Mac OS as the host. Since Josh has 4 GB of ram and so on running a virtual machine wouldn't be a problem. Thanks.

If this does still not work, install all the stuff including winkit in the root or the c drive in your username folder make a folder called kitchensinc and load that there. It sounds like you are using a 64bit os. I hav not got a 64bit os but its possible that the files for vb are not going in the right place syswow 64 is where all 64 bit system files go and system32 is where 32 bit files go. Again this is only from what I get off the lists since although I have the ability to run a 64 bit os I don't have a 64 bit os right now. I am not sure but you really should try to get some sort of windows emulator for the games. Failing that if you can get win xp 32 bit or win 7 32 bit and try that it may work. I am not sure if you can emulate windows environments from a mac but still. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
