Get the patch at http://nbsd.fileburst.com/Smugglers5 _Patch_AllVersions_To_V100c.exe and just run it to have your copy of the game updated. it works on the demo or the full versions, so you can now try the demo too!

So enjoy! and please support niels by buying the game. The reason he didn't! include the compatibility mode for empires and dungeons 2 was that not enough people showed interest, so now is the chance to make a real difference! if you ever wanted complex accessible games, here they are!

Re: [Audyssey] iPhone Audio Games Extant question
Hi guys, Thanks for your input, much appreciated! Extant was developed using a tool called Unity - http://http://unity3d.com/ - which allows us to quite easily and cheaply port the game to a multitude of platforms (PC, MAC, iPhone, Android, browser, Steam, Wii, Xbox, Playstation). The only real hassle is that we need to take into account certain platform specifics such as memory, processor speed, screen sizes (jep, even with audio games ;-) and input controls (mouse, keyboard, controller, touch input, etc.). We are already experimenting with this with our (video) game Gluddle - http://gluddle.com - that's currently on sale in the App Store and free to play online on Kongregate.com and hopefully soon on Android too. It has allowed us to find many of the pitfalls common to multiplatform development. Our personal wish is to design a single version of Extant for all platforms. However, the PC/MAC versions are probably the most easy to design for because of the platform specifics mentioned above. For instance, the audio in the current version of Extant on iPhone tends to tick/distort/stall sometimes because of memory issues. We'll let you guys know when the new Extant follow-up project is initiated. If you have any input or wishes for its gameplay don't hesitate to share them here on Audyssey, through the AudioGames.net forum or via email! We're currently busy with promoting Gluddle but you could really help us out spread the word to friends and family, that way the sooner we can get back at developing Extant :-) Have a great day!

Much appreciated. Sander and I are thinking of developing an iPhone version of Extant for some time now. Actually, we already got it running for a year on iPhone/iPad but since Extant is not much more than a tech demo without real gameplay, we did not yet persue this project. Our questions are these - for you, Dark, but also the Audyssey community... - would you be interested in an iPhone version of Extant (and then a full version game, not just the tech demo)? - would you be interested in audio games for (mobile) iOs (iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad) devices? - would you be interested in audio games for (mobile) Android (for example Samsung Note, Galaxy) devices? - how many of you play the adio games that are currently in Apple's AppStore - and what do you think of these? Thanks for your input. If there's enough interest we might want to make Extant (or another audio game) one of our next projects!

Re: [Audyssey] JS install crashes during install
Ah, not that Was hoping fors omething dif, smiling frown. Yeah, sure sounds like what happen to the Vista long time ago. And never could move up its securty package. That's why Shown did not want to mess with the error and ignore it..e Yup, right on the money, Inno just updated the installer. But if JS Installer is only a set of Jaws scripts for Inno. The latest version think 5.5 looks doable without any scripts. I do have my own batch file that did the job nicely for the Baseball scripts. But even my things changed and revamping the batch file can be done. But even a few words of instructions, will have novice blind computers can be left in the dark. Wile the batch file was for moving files arouind after unzipping and locating the folder from the extrat to a location. I guess, was looking at the front end of this process more for me then gamers. As I took a quick look at the program Inno installer. I'll have to do some testing and writting. I had users in the shell window to accept or not in replacing files. Thinking of junking that, things like that. What I am considering then in the batch file to us a unzip command. Or at last, the Jaws packager, wkhich long time ago may had a bug in it and caused me to abandon that direction. But thanks Shawn, extactly what I need, had thought in the same direction and others.

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.

[Audyssey] question regarding emon games
Hi I was playing the stand alone emon games and have a question. When you are at the main menu, you can view your selected character and see how much damage a particular weapon can do. Is this possible to do when in the actual game, like when you find a new weapon? Or is it pretty much trial and error? Also, when you find a companion, like the amazon, or eddie, is there any way to check their stats, equipment or whatever?

Re: [Audyssey] question regarding emon games
Hi kieth. Firstly on weapons. It is true that is a weakness of the system as far as weapons go, you cannot check their stats during an adventure, though usually you can get a pretty good idea of their damage by using them. Also in most adventures descriptions are pretty accurate so something that is described as a standard sword is just that, and you'll usually want to keep everythingaround anyway to sell when you get back to the hall so you find the good weapons then. Also, note that in the actual eamon game, grendel the smith in the village by the main hall sells exceptional quality weapons, that are usually far better than the ones you find on adventures so it's more often than not better to use his. all in all while not seeing weapon stats is a bit of a pest, it's not a major flaw in the system when your playing the full games because of the way the main hall works. As to companions, look amazon or look jo will tell you their basic physical condition, for a more complete readout on hwat their carrying try i amazon or I jo, indeed it's usually a good idea to inventory anyone who becomes your friend sinse in some adventures they can be carrying important objects. to get something from a companion type request, and to give them something type give. This way you can arm unarmed companions or share healing potions. Hth. hope your enjoying the games, especially runcible cargo, I was most impressed with that one. Beware the Grue!

[Audyssey] Kitchen's Baseball game doesn't find a voice
Hi Jim or whoever is reading this email: On a Windows Xp machine in which I have several Sapi voices I can't get the Baseball or battnig program to work! Only I hear the crowd sounds, but no voice, thus giving an error and won't close. I've had it working fine using the Akapela's Heather Voice which I have as default, but wanted to change the Baseball voice to Ryan; I did f12 and it cycled among Sam and when it got to the RealSpeak Paulina is when it got stuck; it kept on playing the baseball song over and over and over; i had to close via the Control+alt+delete. Several actions I tried which didn't work? 1.-Uninstalled everything and reinstalled the game system and the Baseball and other games. I was careful to perform the CCleaner and restart the pc. 2.-Deleted the Realspeak Paulina voice so, as I thought, when the game would start, it'll default to the Heather voice as before but no go! I had to reinstall the Paulina Voice because not only the Baseball/batting Practice, but the game system itself didn't work! Upon reinstalling the Paulina voice and when I made sure everything else worked OK, I relaunched the Baseball/batting Practice and The error keeps coming up on both, the Baseball game and baseball practice. 3.-I tried uninstalling the Baseball game by going to Program Files Kitchen Sinc; Uninbase bat; on pressing Enter Windows xp comes up saying it can't find the Uninstabase file! Any other ideas? I might as well give up on Baseball since all other games work great!

[Audyssey] Question About Playing Smugglers 5
Hi, I've been reading about the Smugglers games for awhile now, and finally got some time to check out the Smugglers 5 demo. So far, it's not bad, but I'm wondering if there's anything that can be done to improve the accessibility, other than turning on the compatibility mode for visually impaired players, which I've already done. I find it annoying listening to various columns of information, at least during the tutorial. Also, there were some occasions where JAWS couldn't see the word guns when I tried moving to it in order to use them during a battle. Any suggestions, or is all this normal behavior? Thanks.

Re: [Audyssey] question regarding emon games
Hi kieth. Hmmm you can do x weapon or i and get stats, and you can also examine yourself and your chars I think. However the demo adventures are now quite old and crappy, all out of date. the next version is aparently almost done just manuals and a few revisions. A couple days I got the next prebeta snapshot, and loads have been updated. In the full build you can do things like crack your char stats wide open, crack your cash wide open as well as make any weapon as powerfull as you want. actually there is a limit of 50 dice and 50 sides. you can only get 50 k in bank and in hand. Depending on what you want you can learn and go up and up but you are encouraged to hack your char, in fact you are encouraged to cheat your way through. Right now though I don't max my cash unless I need it. At 03:12 p.m. 12/10/2012 -0500, you wrote: Hi I was playing the stand alone emon games and have a question. When you are at the main menu, you can view your selected character and see how much damage a particular weapon can do. Is this possible to do when in the actual game, like when you find a new weapon? Or is it pretty much trial and error? Also, when you find a companion, like the amazon, or eddie, is there any way to check their stats, equipment or whatever?

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchen's Baseball game doesn't find a voice
uninstall and reinstall realspeak and don't run the paulena voice unless you need it. note! if your apps are not working right you need to check general on priperties and find the unblock button. if it exists press it. Due to certifficate upgrades, everything is now suspect. if you unblock it then the system thinks its trusted.

Re: [Audyssey] question regarding emon games - contains spoiler
SPOILER Hi Dark, in the game you mentioned at the end of the last post, I came across a safe that I can open which contains a letter. But, I have found that the only way I can get things out of containers (cabinets, safes, fridges, etc) is to attack them, thus breaking them. Is there any other way of getting objects and people out of small enclosed spaces without damaging the container? Plus, some containers seem invincible to damange, and I am just left with the you can't get that comment from the computer. I feel like tossing my netbook though the window. Thanks Keith - Original Message - From: dark d...@xgam.org To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Friday, October 12, 2012 4:30 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] question regarding emon games Hi kieth. Firstly on weapons. It is true that is a weakness of the system as far as weapons go, you cannot check their stats during an adventure, though usually you can get a pretty good idea of their damage by using them. Also in most adventures descriptions are pretty accurate so something that is described as a standard sword is just that, and you'll usually want to keep everythingaround anyway to sell when you get back to the hall so you find the good weapons then. Also, note that in the actual eamon game, grendel the smith in the village by the main hall sells exceptional quality weapons, that are usually far better than the ones you find on adventures so it's more often than not better to use his. all in all while not seeing weapon stats is a bit of a pest, it's not a major flaw in the system when your playing the full games because of the way the main hall works. As to companions, look amazon or look jo will tell you their basic physical condition, for a more complete readout on hwat their carrying try i amazon or I jo, indeed it's usually a good idea to inventory anyone who becomes your friend sinse in some adventures they can be carrying important objects. to get something from a companion type request, and to give them something type give. This way you can arm unarmed companions or share healing potions. Hth. hope your enjoying the games, especially runcible cargo, I was most impressed with that one. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Question About Playing Smugglers 5
Thanks, Kelly. I am mainly a braille user, and would prefer not to rely on speech output. I know there are two frotzes for Windows, namely Winfrotz (the older one) and Windowsfrotz (the newer one). It would have been nice to be able to run games on the newer interpreter. I've also seen a few other Windows-based interpreters on the IF Archive. I think I'll try out those too, and see what I can get out of them in terms of accessibility. It might also pay off for me to try Windowsfrotz with NVDA, since at times it seems to surpass Jaws in certain areas. And maybe I'll throw a mail at the Windowsfrotz dev and see if that person is willing to make the program more Jaws friendly.
