Re: [Audyssey] JS install crashes during install
well garry, you should download the latest installer. due to the new certificate polocy every windows installer package that is from january 2010 to 8 october 2012 is now defunked and useless. Several companies have not updated. inno has just upgraded their scripts though since innos are not msis they shouldn't be effected. In fact I just tested inno installer I had and its not effected. Never the less assume that any installer with certifficates signed after january 1 2010 to the present month are now rubbish. anything after say the 10th of this month and up will work though as previders can't make 512 bit certifficates anymore. Some like adobe have updated bits of stuff, and assume other companies will start releasing programs in due cource. this cert thing has to do with security certifficates on emails, websites and activex controls so yeah. Saying that if you are wanting to create a new installer and need a certifficate you shouldn't have a problem. any old installer made from the period january 2010 to september 2012 is now in the can. anything made after october 10th or before january 1 is still active. You could just delete the certifficate unless you really want it in there. Right now expect everything you do as outdated and there fore crap! everyone's software is now a pile of junky crap since everyone is effected. Personally I would have actually made sure all software was upgraded rather than ms forcing the upgrade on people that obviously hadn't upgraded yet to the new security model. Now users and developers will have to wait for upgrades or redo their certs. As a user I am angry at ms for not actually getting everything set with its previders like verisign to verify that most had upgraded before making the change. You can crack the registry temperarily to lower your security, but you will then put your system at risk though ms does acknowledge that for a time there will be a backlog as everyone tries to resign their security with the new standard. The cheapest way is to avoid ms installers. if you do need ms components aparently they will install since windows will allow for them to be installed. For the general blind dev that has payed probably a lot to get their certs concider what you need that security for. it may be easier to kill that or stop using windows installers all together. If you are new though then you can only buy the new standard now so there is no problem. At 04:42 p.m. 11/10/2012 -0600, you wrote: Hi gamers and developers. Need some advice.

Re: [Audyssey] emon deluxe stand alone adventure issue
hmmm well eamon is dos console and uses innosetup. But I can ask if there are certificates used, since ms increased the certifficates to 1024 bits I have found several programs sony media go, adobe acrobat and shockwave and a few others that are not getting new versions right now. audible is another. basically anything that has an certifficate after january 2010 is now unless already loaded not going to install no matter what you do unless you hack the registry and lower your security which is not wise at all.

It even has a screen reader friendly format that redoes the menues in a way that is readable with a virtual curser. Eamon deluxe 5.0 is currently in developement and is being beta tested by myself and several others. some stand alone Eamon deluxe adventures can be found on http://www.eamonag.org/pages/eamondx.htm If however you'd like a copy of the beta, send an E-mail to eamondel...@gmail.com I'd highly recommend eamon. it was a text adventure rpg system. it has a simple parza but one which can still create puzzles without! uess the verb or other horribleness, it has combat, companions and other fun stuff, and adventures range from simple 10 minute dungeon hacks to full on epic quests that take hours to finish.

Best of all in my book is the fact that you can go through multipel adventures with the same character, gaining treasure, then coming back to the guild of free adventurers after each outing to put your money in the bank or even spend it on better weapons or improving your stats. There are even people still writing adventures for Eammon deluxe today, with three new ones produced this year, plus, frank black the developer as he converts classic apple adventures to eamon deluxe is making several improvements and changes along the way as well.

That's not what I meant. I did unzip it. I then tried to play the game from the folder that the unzipping produced. That is when I got the "untitled" window appearing and would freeze my system. I was forced to go into the folder that was produced after unzipping the file and cut and then pasted the contents of that folder into another folder i created on my computer. I then hit enter on the VI executable file and got the yes or no prompt for the screen reader useage. Not sure why the untitled window was appearing in the first place. I always unzip .zip files.

Unfortunately the good columnization with virtual curser is a strength of Hal (and possibly window eyes), and something I like. It's probably not something niels can actually change without reconfiguring the hole interface, and to be honest he's already done far more than most devs in terms of labelling all his images in understandable text. Probably a better way around would be for some advanced jfw person to create some scripts for the game, maybe using that hotspot clicker, and then share them around, indeed I've always been a little confused why someone doesn't do this, sinse I've heard some advanced jaws users say they got things running smoothly.

Re: [Audyssey] Smugglers 5 now accessible
The shop screen is a pretty nice mess if you're using NVDA or JFW. I bet it works a lot better with hal because the game works better with it in general. I can't help saying that I really miss the list boxes from S3 in this area a lot. I may have to contact Neil and see if he could do anything here so the screen contents aren't as scattered as they are now.

Re: [Audyssey] emon deluxe stand alone adventure issue
I'm a little surprised kieth you even tried to run it without unzipping. Generally as a basic universal rule you should never! run stuff without unzipping first precisely because it rarely works when files are compressed, whatever kind of program it is. Still, I'm glad you've got it running now sinse Eamon is loads of fun. Runcible cargo is a true masterpeace, and realm of fantasy is good for some utter craziness! I think there will be more stand alone adventures coming soon, but if you want the full experience try mailing frank and asking for a beta copy, sinse there are a good 20 or so adventures converted ranging from some dire to some truly exceptional ones. beware the grue! dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] emon deluxe stand alone adventure issue
I figured out what was wrong. I could not get the program to work because I had to transfer the contents of the .zip file that was extracted to a new folder. Meaning, I had to open the .zip archive, extract all the contents into a new folder, and then move the contents to another folder. Otherwise, the program would just hand at the "untitled" window and nothing would happen.

Re: [Audyssey] Okay, got stand alone Emon game to run, what about VI controls...
xp sp3 is fine, that's what I've got over here on my laptop too, which is why i suggested the alt enter business.. eamon is a dos style program, as is eamon deluxe, so there is no clicking involved, you need to enter text. I find in supernova I need to read the screen with my virtual curser, then flick out of it to write commands, then flick back in (this is quicker than it sounds). When you first run the file you will be asked whether to run vi compatibility mode and to confirm by hitting y or n, which you will need to type on the keyboard. You'll then be asked to hit the letter x to confirm once again. After this you'll be in the menue for the adventure, and sinse you've already run vi mode, you won't have to go through the other screens again. to activate a menue option, simply type it's letter and hit enter. So the first option is select a pregenerated c character (in the main eamon deluxe you create your own, but this is stand alone so yu choose a predone one). Hitting enter will take you to the character select option sinse that's first on the menu which is what I suspect you did. After you've selected your char, use the start adventure option (the 4th down I believe), and the adventure will start, where upon it plays the way you'd play interactive fiction, accept that you have to toggle your virtual curser on and off to read the screen. hth.

Re: [Audyssey] Just tried an Iphone, my thoughts and questions
Just to set a few things straight here. You don't have to convert if not want to. I have many of mp3 files on iPhone and iPod doing just fine. Also have complete books and what ever in mp3. But I mostly like it for backing up everything including my games. When they are put back on you are where you left off in game. Like having two types of save. At 11:18 AM 10/10/2012, you wrote: If you add the folder the books are in to the ITunes library ITunes will prompt you to convert those files to the ITunes format. Don't worry though, they'll still play just fine on your computer and not just in ITunes. Anyway say yes to the convertion. THe next time you sync your device with ITunes the books should be copied to it. Granted doing it manually this way can sometimes cause weird problems where a book gets copied to the IPod but it's listed as unknown. However if you have, say a book on CD, and ou rip it directly into ITunes itself that will not happen. The only downside is that you do have to rip each disc individually and then have to play it individually as well. If there's a more convenient way to do this I don't know.

[Audyssey] emon deluxe stand alone adventure issue
Hi, I downloaded some emon deluxe demo adventures (stand alone type) and unzipped one of them. There were 3 files in it (actually, one folder and 2 .exe files). I hit enter on the one named Eamon Deluxe Demo Adventure.exe and I got a run or cancel security window popping up. (BTW, I am running Windows xp sp 3 with Window Eyes 7.5.4.1). I hit R to run the game and then a window opened that was "entitled: if you will, untitled. Nothing happened after that. I tried to close the window with alt F4, nothing. I arrowed around the widnow with the arrow keys, nothing. I used the mouse pointer, nothing showed up or was read. Not sure why I am not able to play this demo. Any suggestions?

Re: [Audyssey] Question about formats on Baf's Guide to theIFArchive
Hi Kieth. I suggest you do find a way of running those, sinse Eamon eluxe is basically a big collection of the same thing, therefore it would be bad if you can't run them. have you tried hitting alt enter? sometimes they have a nasty habbit of full screening things, but it's easily fixed. Other than that though i'd highly recommend dropping frank an E-mail, after all he is! making the game and appreciates bug reports. Beware the grue!

It just locks up the computer. But I eagerly await the resease of the emon deluxe program Thanks Keith - Original Message - From: "dark" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Wednesday, October 10, 2012 8:37 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Question about formats on Baf's Guide to the IFArchive Hi kieth. that is a question with a complicated answer. the bad news is that the only way to play them is with an aple Ii emulator, and those don't output screen readable text. the good news however is that Eamon deluxe is currently in developement, which is an eamon upgrade that will run on windows xp and is intended to run all the classic eamon adventures. It even has a screen reader friendly format that redoes the menues in a way that is readable with a virtual curser. Eamon deluxe 5.0 is currently in developement and is being beta tested by myself and several others. some stand alone Eamon deluxe adventures can be found on http://www.eamonag.org/pages/eamondx.htm If however you'd like a copy of the beta, send an E-mail to eamondel...@gmail.com I'd highly recommend eamon. it was a text adventure rpg system. it has a simple parza but one which can still create puzzles without! uess the verb or other horribleness, it has combat, companions and other fun stuff, and adventures range from simple 10 minute dungeon hacks to full on epic quests that take hours to finish. Writing of course varies with the author, though some I've played have been fantastically wr written. Best of all in my book is the fact that you can go through multipel adventures with the same character, gaining treasure, then coming back to the guild of free adventurers after each outing to put your money in the bank or even spend it on better weapons or improving your stats. There are even people still writing adventures for Eammon deluxe today, with three new ones produced this year, plus, frank black the developer as he converts classic apple adventures to eamon deluxe is making several improvements and changes along the way as well. I'd certainly recommend it if you like rpgs. Beware the grue!

Are these games playable on a Win XP machine, and if so, where can I get the interpretor or eemulator for it?
