Re: [Audyssey] Question about graphics on cast aways

2011-08-23 Thread Jeremy Kaldobsky
Nope, no keystroke to turn the sounds off.  I just mute the entire laptop.

 Well, I think it's awsome that you
 did put graphics in the game, cause it opens up a whole new
 avenue for people in that sense. Now blind and sighted alike
 can both play cast aways and enjoy it all the same. And is
 their a keystroke to turn the sound off?

[Audyssey] Moderator: Off Topic Messages

2011-08-23 Thread Damien C. Pendleton

Shaun,
Thomas has already posted an email about off topic messages regarding the 
TextPal topic and has put some people on moderated status. He asked that 
nobody respond to the topic. As you have responded thereby breaking list 
guidelines, I feel I have no choice but to moderate you as well.

Regards,
Damien C. Pendleton,
Co-Moderator of the Audyssey List.

Hi Thomas,

I totally agree with you about the modding of games.  But I also believe that 
it applies to free games as well.  Even if I do not pay for the sound files 
that I use, I spend allot of time finding or recording and editing the sounds 
for my games.  And put the games out as my creation, you know the concept, the 
code, thus the way that the game plays and the sounds of the game.  Now if I 
intend for the game to be modded such as Quake I would build tools into the 
game for that.  You know like I have for games such as monopoly, golf, 
baseball, football, coupling and the trivia game engine.

I did devise a simple check to see if my game sounds have been modded.  But 
some people have found a way around that.  Just irritates me a bit that people 
take my creations and change them.

2011-08-23 Thread shaun everiss
Well jim, you have allowed some modding of ambiences on golf after a 
sertain number.

Ofcause its up to a dev on what is modded and if they will let it slide.
Ie final conflict 1.2, has at least one or 2 mods.
lonewolf has one.
Superliam has one maybe 2 and I know that shades has at least one I know of.
Its all up to the developer on weather they care enough.
But I realise how this could change.
Example.
I made some gard noises for shoot da me by rsgames.
These were used by keywasfull on battlezoon as well as others without 
my permition.

Aparently they came from oriol but he could have got it from somewhere else.
I had 3 choices.
1.  To kick up a fuss.
or 2 to try to find out
or 3 nothing or just release the pack.
I am not a guy to start fusses.
I actually liked my sounds in the game mentioned.
Sdm had not been developed for a bit pluss my sounds never played 
right through seeming to cut off in the middle though they served 
their purpose.
They were recorded with cheap gear and I was not concerned with where 
they came from.
And I was happy they were being used that and only one of them was 
used anyway and they were generic noises.
i guess I could have made sfx for that game to even it but I just did 
not mind to much.

However some may have.
My other major reason was I could go at what I thought pirated my stuff.
But then if it was more than that there would be a possability I'd 
never find the origional source and the flame would be pointless.
With the net you could never find the leak unless you really wanted 
it that much.

And even if I found the leak well its not like they were sold or anything.
But I do understand when you don't want sounds.
Though as I said jim you have allowed most games to be modded in some way.
Golf ambiences, trivias question files, golfs courses and monopoly's 
boards are just a few.

And I have made my own mods for games.
The night of parasite game and mine sweaper by the same person I 
modded not the game or sounds themselves but the installers because 
the installers the game had triggered my av program.
Its fair though that I did send my mod code and reasons to the author 
explaining my reasons for the adjustment.

Re: [Audyssey] mota beta 22 thoughts

2011-08-23 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Raul,

Well, working with public betas is something of a two-edged sword.

On the one side, it has been extremely helpful. I've had a wide range
of testers who have found bugs, problems, and so on. working with the
same people who will be playing MOTA 1.0 has resolved a lot of design
issues early on and helped me get things right before 1.0. So rather
than releasing one or two major betas in which I might have to rewrite
or correct a bunch of code at once I chose to break it down into
smaller beta cycles and fix things as I go.

On the other side, though, some people have been immature about the
process. Some people demand their own way, want the game right now,
insist on modding it, or whatever. I suppose every developer
encounters a few bad apples now and then, and the best a developer can
do is take the good with the bad. Find out if the value of public
input is worth putting up with the bad apples too.

Smile.

On 8/22/11, Raul A. Gallegos r...@raulgallegos.com wrote:
 Thomas, this is one reason why I have often wondered why you have
 released so many public betas. People should just be patient and wait
 for the final release with maybe 1, or 2 public betas, but that should
 be it. The idea of, I'm blind and I want things my way or else I'll
 throw a fit is for children, not adults.

 I am very sure you just wanna get this off your shoulders and move onto
 other things, and I for one can't wait to see the final project and I
 know I will enjoy it regardless.

 Thanks.

2011-08-23 Thread Bryan Peterson
Yeah, but creating golf courses, monopoly boards and trivia files is one 
thing. It's quite another when you get into replacing a game's sounds and 
music. It's like I said. I may not give a rat's buttcheeks about free titles 
I make but you can bet that if I make any commercial games the sounds and 
music are going to be encripted.

That's my feeling as well. If I wanted the game to be modded or to
allow end users to customize it I would make available the proper

Since I don't intend Mysteries of the Ancients to be modified, to be a
stand alone game, etc I'm going to have to begin encrypting sounds and

[Audyssey] hunter1.0, the jump game and super mario brothers

2011-08-23 Thread Jack F
Hi all,
I wanted to ask you guys some questions about abandoned games. First
of all, does anyone have hunter1.0 and troopanum1.0? Also, do you have
the jump game from pb-games? I have all of them except the jump game.
Also, does anyone have the older version of alien outback from ESP?
Don't worry it's not cracking, all I want is the demo version, in
fact, since I have a reg code I am most likely able to use the same
key to register the game. And finally, I have the super mario brothers
game from dragon slayer games. It might be a concept demo, but anyway,
I unzipped it and didn't see a .exe file to start the game, but I
found mario.tkn and thaught that had something to do with starting the
game but it didn't. Really, it would be better if they compiled it so
you wouldn't have to unzip it and go hunting for the game.
Thanks.
best regards,
jack

Re: [Audyssey] hunter1.0, the jump game and super mario brothers

2011-08-23 Thread Damien C. Pendleton

Jack,
All these games are very hard to come by these days. In fact, I had never 
heard of the Jump game until you mentioned it just now.
As far as Alien Outback etc goes, just out of curiosity what features are in 
the older versions that you are looking for that aren't in the newer ones? 
Games such as Troopanum, Hunter, Alien Outback, are still available, but 
just updated, with bug fixes and better features etc, and therefore it is 
not only advisable but also encouraged to update the games for maximum 
stability and performance. If you are looking for Troopanum 1.0 because of 
the classic game play, BSC do offer Troopanum 1.6, yes it has slightly 
different sounds, but the classic game is still there.

Hope that helps.
Regards,
Damien.

Hi all,
I wanted to ask you guys some questions about abandoned games. First
of all, does anyone have hunter1.0 and troopanum1.0? Also, do you have
the jump game from pb-games? I have all of them except the jump game.
Also, does anyone have the older version of alien outback from ESP?
Don't worry it's not cracking, all I want is the demo version, in
fact, since I have a reg code I am most likely able to use the same
key to register the game. And finally, I have the super mario brothers
game from dragon slayer games. It might be a concept demo, but anyway,
I unzipped it and didn't see a .exe file to start the game, but I
found mario.tkn and thaught that had something to do with starting the
game but it didn't. Really, it would be better if they compiled it so
you wouldn't have to unzip it and go hunting for the game.
Thanks.

Re: [Audyssey] mota beta 22 thoughts

2011-08-23 Thread Valiant8086
Hi.
That is true, and I do so. But, as I just mentioned, it doesn't apply to the 
menus. In Mota, fortunately, the music is just quiet enough that it doesn't 
matter, I can figure out what Heather is saying over the music there luckily. 

Also I think you can change the volume of the music in Mota with a couple of 
hotkeys, I'm not sure just now what they are, though. So far Mota has been very 
good about not cluttering up the audio experience I would have. Also, it 
doesn't have that problem I emailed about earlier with my stereo field being 
too narrow, or what ever one should call my strange situation. I'm sincerely 
hoping Mota3d doesn't have that problem either.

 I have some food for more thought on this discussion.
 
 That is, with certain games, I have to mod them in order to play them. That
 is, with my hearing problems, sometimes I need to silence a crowd or turn up
 a beep sound. Sometimes I have to turn down music in a menu  where many
 developers seem to forget to allow it to be turned down or off.
 
 I'm not trying to argue against the prevention of modding, just wanted to
 throw that out there for people to know about.

 Hi Jim,
 
 Yeah, I do know what you mean and understand your point of view.
 That's my feeling as well. If I wanted the game to be modded or to 
 allow end users to customize it I would make available the proper 
 tools or ability to do so.
 
 Since I don't intend Mysteries of the Ancients to be modified, to be a 
 stand alone game, etc I'm going to have to begin encrypting sounds and 
 taking care that people can't modify it without serious effort. That 
 way I know that what I create stays in tact and the game I sell my 
 customers is the one they are playing.

 Hi Thomas,
 
 I totally agree with you about the modding of games.  But I also 
 believe that it applies to free games as well.  Even if I do not pay 
 for the sound files that I use, I spend allot of time finding or 
 recording and editing the sounds for my games.  And put the games out 
 as my creation, you know the concept, the code, thus the way that the 
 game plays and the sounds of the game.  Now if I intend for the game 
 to be modded such as Quake I would build tools into the game for 
 that.  You know like I have for games such as monopoly, golf, baseball,
 football, coupling and the trivia game engine.
 
 I did devise a simple check to see if my game sounds have been 
 modded.  But some people have found a way around that.  Just 
 irritates me a bit that people take my creations and change them.

[Audyssey] Why I want older versions of the games

2011-08-23 Thread Jack F
Hi Damien,
I want the older versions of the games because the setup files are
small and the sounds are compressed. Downloading is kind of slow for
me when downloading really large files. For instance, the abandonware
games archive where I got the montezuma's revenge demo and the mario
brother's demo took almost 2 hours to download where it was supposed
to be faster than that. Yeah, the file is large, but not like several
gb or something. I know that it shouldn't have taken this long,
because the 1 gb demo of kerzwiel took only an hour and a half.
Thanks.
best regards,

Re: [Audyssey] mota beta 22 thoughts

2011-08-23 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Valiant,

That kind of modding is understandable. Obviously lowering music to
make the menus more understandable or raising the volume of a sound to
make it a little louder is perfectly fine. You have a problem hearing
and modding a game to make it easier to play isn't an issue for me.
Its the other kind of modding that bothers me.

For instance, not long ago someone mentioned they were creating a Star
Wars mod for the game called Order 66, and asked if I could do
something to make a light saber loop. In other words could I modify
the game to support his mod.  The answer was definitely no, because
I'm creating a game on par with Tomb Raider, Indiana Jones, Rogue
Angel, or something else in that genre and someone is happily
converting my game into something completely different than what I had
intended. Not only that he wasn't even aware of the fact the license
agreement specifically forbids modding of that kind.

The other issue we get into when talking about modding is copyright
issues regarding sound effects. I have to pay royalties for the sounds
and music I use in my games. So the sounds that ship with a game are
provided under legal license for that purpose. However, if someone
rips all the sounds from say Tomb Raider and creates a mod and
redistributes them he/she could be held liable for redistribution of
copyrighted material and/or copyright infringement. While I'd love to
just drop the sounds of Lara Croft etc into my games that's not really
legal, and anyone who does it is taking a legal risk. So by not
allowing people to mod a game I not only protect my product I protect
people from taking the risk of modding my games with illegal sounds
and music.

Cheers!

Hi Valiant,

Well, I don't think MOTA 3D should have a problem with your sound
card. What I basically did in order to make it compatible with non-5.1
surround sound systems is emulate my own 3d positioning using the
panning and volume settings in DirectSound. I.E. I used 3d
calculations so the sound would pann and roll off like a 3d control,
but using just standard stereo mixing and gain. That way it would
sound fairly realistic, but not require state-of-the-art 5.1 or 7.1
sound cards and speakers.

recorded 2 matches for you. 1 of them I win, the other I lose. I don't just 
lose, I get killed so bad that I'm considering quitting the game. hahahaha.

some light on how I got killed this badly? that player had me totally in 
his/her control and my brain shut down completely. I'll post link to the one

Another thought about modified games:  Scenario:  Someone who has not bought 
your production visits the home of someone who has bought and modified your 
production.  The visitor thinks, Those game sounds are really terrible. 
This is certainly a game I will not buy.  If he had visited someone who 
purchased your game and did not modify it, and he really was impressed, 
you've got another customer.

Hi Jim,

Yeah, I do know what you mean and understand your point of view.
That's my feeling as well. If I wanted the game to be modded or to
allow end users to customize it I would make available the proper
tools or ability to do so.

Since I don't intend Mysteries of the Ancients to be modified, to be a
stand alone game, etc I'm going to have to begin encrypting sounds and
taking care that people can't modify it without serious effort. That
way I know that what I create stays in tact and the game I sell my
customers is the one they are playing.

Smile.

Re: [Audyssey] game licenses - Re: mota beta 22 thoughts

2011-08-23 Thread Thomas Ward
HI Charles,

Ah, well, what a person should do and will do is often two completely
different things. Most people are in a hurry to install the game, find
reading legal documents like licence agreements boring, so they choose
to skip it not knowing they are bound by law to that agreement weather
they read it or not. Plus since license agreements tend to be worded
in rather legalistic terms, for legal purposes, some people might have
trouble understanding all the terms of the agreement. Still, all the
same, anyone should be able to get the jist of the agreement.

For instance, take the entire modification issue. It doesn't take
rocket science to understand the terms of the Mysteries of the
Ancients licence regarding this issue. It reads, You may not modify,
reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the software except and
only to the extent that such activity is expressly permitted by
applicable
law notwithstanding this limitation.

That's pretty clear. Basically, unless there is some law that grants
you the right to modify or change the software in any way you can not
freely modify the software. If you create a sound pack, create custome
music packs, whatever you are in breach of license unless I say that
particular modification is ok. Which pretty much limits the types of
modifications I will legally allow.

Of course, I'm pretty reasonable in most cases. If someone wants to
create speech files for the game in a foreign language in French,
German, Spanish, whatever I'm not going to object to that kind of
modification because it is a necessary modification for that person's
native language. If someone needs to raise or lower sounds to hear
better I wouldn't object to that either. Those are reasonable
modifications all to the good.

Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] mota beta 22 thoughts

2011-08-23 Thread Thomas Ward
HI Charles,

That's always a possibility. However, most of the time when games are
modded it is with the purpose of changing the game itself to something
else, or it is to improve the sounds.

For instance, when I created my Lone Wolf soundpack way back when I
tried to stay to the original game as possible, but obtained higher
quality effects. That kind of modding was probably benificial to the
game rather than harmful. At least I personally think so, and my
intent wasn't to change the game itself.

However, I don't know if you remember this, but about five or six
years ago I do recall roomers of a Star Trek mod for Lone Wolf
floating around. Someone had taken sounds from Trek 2000, grabbed some
extras off the net, and tried to create a real time Star Trek
simulation game. That was probably not too benificial for Lone Wolf
since the sounds would be totally improper for a World War II
submarine simulation, and if we are completely realistic about it even
if they changed sounds, rewrote all the missions, etc it still
wouldn't really live up to a real time Star Trek game anyway. It would
just end up being a submarine pretending to be a starship. That kind
of modding is hharmful to the game in the extreme.

Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] hunter1.0, the jump game and super mario brothers

hmmm not sure about jump.
Alien outback is by draconis.
Now and is not abandoned.
Classic pipe troop etc are now modified and done by blindsoftware.
If you can afford it buy the arcade pack which I did you will get 
most of their reallly good games.

all 5 of them.
pipe and troop 1 and 2, hunter and pipe 1 and 2.
On the old version front why do you want it all the new sounds are 
real cool for starters.

Honestly its not that bad.
As for the jump game this is a new one.
Usagames has most of the pb games on it and thats where this should 
probably go to if its allowed or whatever since thats where the games 
have gone from old pb games stuff.
There is an abandoned thread somewhere in the vast vaults of 
audiogames.net's forums which may have what you want on it including 
several places to get abandoned games.

 sounds for my games.  And put the games out as my creation, you know the

 game.  Now if I intend for the game to be modded such as Quake I

 tools into the game for that.  You know like I have for games such as
 monopoly, golf, baseball, football, coupling and the trivia game engine.

 I did devise a simple check to see if my game sounds have been

 some people have found a way around that.  Just irritates me a bit that
 people take my creations and change them.

but what about final conflict, I aggree its free and there have been 
mods from the origional sounds, you didn't seem to concerned about that.

At 06:27 a.m. 24/08/2011, you wrote:

Hi Valiant,

That kind of modding is understandable. Obviously lowering music to
make the menus more understandable or raising the volume of a sound to
make it a little louder is perfectly fine. You have a problem hearing
and modding a game to make it easier to play isn't an issue for me.
Its the other kind of modding that bothers me.

For instance, not long ago someone mentioned they were creating a Star
Wars mod for the game called Order 66, and asked if I could do
something to make a light saber loop. In other words could I modify
the game to support his mod.  The answer was definitely no, because
I'm creating a game on par with Tomb Raider, Indiana Jones, Rogue
Angel, or something else in that genre and someone is happily
converting my game into something completely different than what I had
intended. Not only that he wasn't even aware of the fact the license
agreement specifically forbids modding of that kind.

The other issue we get into when talking about modding is copyright
issues regarding sound effects. I have to pay royalties for the sounds
and music I use in my games. So the sounds that ship with a game are
provided under legal license for that purpose. However, if someone
rips all the sounds from say Tomb Raider and creates a mod and
redistributes them he/she could be held liable for redistribution of
copyrighted material and/or copyright infringement. While I'd love to
just drop the sounds of Lara Croft etc into my games that's not really
legal, and anyone who does it is taking a legal risk. So by not
allowing people to mod a game I not only protect my product I protect
people from taking the risk of modding my games with illegal sounds
and music.

Cheers!

 I have some food for more thought on this discussion.

 That is, with certain games, I have to mod them in order to play them. That
 is, with my hearing problems, sometimes I need to silence a crowd 
or turn up

 a beep sound. Sometimes I have to turn down music in a menu  where many
 developers seem to forget to allow it to be turned down or off.

 I'm not trying to argue against the prevention of modding, just wanted to
 throw that out there for people to know about.

on that note tom and all I descovered now that you can get 5.1 
speakers that can plug to the headphone jack of a standard soundcard 
if you wish for little cash, logitech does those forgot the model.
Obviously you really would need the propper card for this eventually 
but that could be another option.
The speakers are not that much 130nz so maybe in the us they are a 
bit cheaper than that.

Hi Valiant,

Well, I don't think MOTA 3D should have a problem with your sound
card. What I basically did in order to make it compatible with non-5.1
surround sound systems is emulate my own 3d positioning using the
panning and volume settings in DirectSound. I.E. I used 3d
calculations so the sound would pann and roll off like a 3d control,
but using just standard stereo mixing and gain. That way it would
sound fairly realistic, but not require state-of-the-art 5.1 or 7.1
sound cards and speakers.

Cheers!

 Hi.
 That is true, and I do so. But, as I just mentioned, it doesn't 
apply to the

 menus. In Mota, fortunately, the music is just quiet enough that it doesn't
 matter, I can figure out what Heather is saying over the music there
 luckily.

 Also I think you can change the volume of the music in Mota with 
a couple of

 hotkeys, I'm not sure just now what they are, though. So far Mota has been
 very good about not cluttering up the audio experience I would have. Also,
 it doesn't have that problem I emailed about earlier with my stereo field
 being too narrow, or what ever one should call my strange situation. I'm
 sincerely hoping Mota3d doesn't have that problem either.

Hi Shaun,

Yeah, I've seen those around, but that's not really the point. A lot
of VI customers are on fixed incomes SSI, SSDI, and alike and it makes
it harder to justify to my customers why they should go out and buy
high end sound hardware for my games when I can make do with their
existing technology. Granted I could do a better job with superior
sound hardware, but that forces everyone to upgrade their systems
regardless of how expensive or inexpensive that may be for that
individual. This is a case of going with the most common hardware is
best for everyone at least from a commercial standpoint.

Cheers!

[Audyssey] super mario brothers and 7128 game book demo

2011-08-23 Thread Jack F
Hi Thomas,
Well, will you upload your copy of the game for me? The copy I got was
from an archive with several abandoned games in it. In the mario
folder I only see the sounds and some dlls. And, if you can, will you
host it on your sight in the free games page? Also, if you know how to
do this or know how to use innow setup, it would be nice if you could
compile the game into a setup file so you don't have to unzip the game
and go hunting for it. Also, while you don't have the 7128 game book
demo on your sight, would you please upload it for me? I have dark
keyboard on my computer and I don't want to have to pay 25 dollars for
the gamebook just to use dark keyboard.
Thanks.
best regards,
jack

Re: [Audyssey] mota beta 22 thoughts

2011-08-23 Thread Thomas Ward
HI Shaun,

That's because I wasn't too concerned about Final Conflict. For starts
it was free, and I didn't pay for sounds, music, or put a lot of
effort into the game. It was for me mainly a practice game to get use
to .Net, Managed DirectX, etc before taking on something more complex.
As a result I didn't really care what people did with it to begin
with.

Second of all, Star Trek is copyrighted by Paramount and the price
they wanted to charge me to legally licence the Star Trek trademark,
sounds, music, etc cost far more than I felt I would get out of
selling the game. Unlike Lucas they gave me permission to go ahead and
release the game provided it was free of charge and I stipulated the
usual trademark information. As a result I could develop the game,
release it, but I really didn't have any legal control over the game
or the sounds so even if I didn't want people modding it I didn't have
any legal control over the sounds etc. So I didn't bother protesting.

Finally, I have a couple of the soundpacks that were produced and they
were very decent. That said, I noticed whoever put together some of
the soundpacks don't know much about Star Trek as I do as I noticed
they used the wrong clackson for the Soverign-Class when I used the
correct one from Star Trek 8, but what could I say? I actually liked
some of the STFC soundpacks even if some of the sounds were not quite
right.

Cheers!

Hi just wanted to say I beat mission 3 on easy mode. it was a bit difficult,

they destroyed to many of my buildings and towards the end I was getting

Re: [Audyssey] What is Mk?

Hi Alfredo,

I see the source of your confusion. Normally combat is spelled with a
c, but not in the name Mortal Kombat. For reasons I'll never
understand the game named Mortal Kombat has a k instead of a c in
Kombat. So no its not spelled MOrtal Combat but Mortal Kombat.

HTH

[Audyssey] possible mota beta 22 bug

2011-08-23 Thread john
As I've been playing through mota beta 22, I've occasionally run 
into enemies that don't move or attack. They're usually at the 
start of a room or near the bottom of a staircase. I've noticed 
this primarily on zombies (those are the only ones I can remember 
right now) but it may have happened with skeletons as well.

  Hi all,
  I wanted to ask you guys some questions about abandoned games. First
  of all, does anyone have hunter1.0 and troopanum1.0? Also, do you have
  the jump game from pb-games? I have all of them except the jump game.
  Also, does anyone have the older version of alien outback from ESP?
  Don't worry it's not cracking, all I want is the demo version, in
  fact, since I have a reg code I am most likely able to use the same
  key to register the game. And finally, I have the super mario brothers
  game from dragon slayer games. It might be a concept demo, but anyway,
  I unzipped it and didn't see a .exe file to start the game, but I
  found mario.tkn and thaught that had something to do with starting the
  game but it didn't. Really, it would be better if they compiled it so
  you wouldn't have to unzip it and go hunting for the game.
  Thanks.
