[Audyssey] ISO a D and D mud like Shadowdale
Hi everyone. I tried out AlterAeon and like it but am looking for something that is more mainstream dungeons and dragons. Shadowdale is very accurate to the original game design and character progression, but I don't care for the way aliases are handled (you can only have 10 and they have to be slaved to the number keys on the top of your keyboard), the fact that you can not simply type hp, mp, or mv or whatever and get your hitpoints, mana points or movement points revealed to you. There is a prompt you can set, but I find it annoying and turn it off. Also, they have a report command but that gives you percentages of those 3 stats and not the real numbers. So, I am wondering if there is a game like shadowdale that allows you to pick a character's race and then select a real D and D class or multi class combination. I don't want to have to level in every class like in alter aeon. I know it's a lot to ask for, but shadowdale is the closest and the game play is a bit jerky at best and there are not ims on to ask questions of. Thanks K --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Holiday Bash
You could make a whole series of these games you could have holiday bash: Black Friday, holiday bash: Christmas Eve, and so on. Just think about all of the games you could sell! Good is the worst enemy of best. Ken On Dec 25, 2013, at 12:07 AM, Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com wrote: Holiday Bash by Mad Games Inc. Your name is Ted Wilson, and it is Christmas Eve again. Once again, you are under enormous pressure to find the perfect Christmas gift for your wife, your two kids, and everyone else on your holiday shopping list. The consequences for failure could mean the end of your marriage, your parents refusing to speak to you ever again, and your entire family will turn against you for being such a scrooge. So finding the perfect Christmas gift at the absolute last minute is your one and only chance to save face. However, your task will not be an easy one. In this fast action brawler you must hurry through several department stores looking for the items on your Christmas list as untold numbers of last minute Christmas shoppers block the isles, steel items from your shopping cart for themselves, and physically attack you for getting in their way. In order to accomplish your task you will have to use your skills as a boxer to knock out and beat up shoppers who are standing in your way, wrestle items away from other shoppers who are carrying what items you need, and will have to fight to the death to defend the items in your shopping cart from unscrupulous holiday shoppers who will try and steel items from your cart while you are occupied with something else. As time runs out the holiday shoppers will become more determined to steel your items and you will have to resort to gathering up weapons in around the store such as knives, guns, ball bats, or anything else you can lay your hands on to stop the hoards of crazy holiday shoppers from steeling your Christmas gifts. So don't delay buy the game today. Now, for a one-time offer you can buy Holiday Bash today for 75% off of the retail price for PC, iOS, or Mac.

Re: [Audyssey] mac versus windows sales plus iOS question
If it can be done, although it is done differently, that's fine. --- Be positive!

If you have Winfrotz you can play pretty much every game written in Inform and ZCode that was ever written with your screen reader or Sapi speech output. If you have Agility for Windows you can play old text adventures written in AGT, and Tads32 will allow you to play various games written in Tads. So when it comes to text adventures you can pretty much play everything available for XP accept for those Dos games compiled for 16-bit systems such as Eamon Deluxe. As for Jim Kitchen's games I have gotten them to work on Windows 8.1 as well. I admit it takes a bit of fiddling to get them to work, but it can certainly be done. What I do is install the Winkit file to get the Visual Basic 6 runtime libraries installed, and then I install his games to a directory like c:\Users\Thomas\Kitchensinc where they will work without having issues with User Account Control. As long as you know how to set up the Kitchen's Inc. games you won't have a problem with them. I haven't tried Ten Pin Alley, but I have tried Lone Wolf 3.5 on Windows 8.1 and it works alright. Again, it just basically requires you install the proper libraries and make sure it is in a local directory rather than in c:\Program Files or c:\Program Files (x86). As to the issue of upgrading I have repeatedly gave reasons why I think people should upgrade. I'm not going to repeat it here as I'd just be wasting both my time and energy rewriting what I have said. All I will say in response is since those games can still be played your excuse not to upgrade is not valid based on compatibility alone. Cheers! On 12/24/13, Charles Rivard wee1s...@fidnet.com wrote: I would not upgrade to get better voices than those I already have, which are good enough. Nobody in their right mind would use Microsoft Sam unless they absolutely had to, so that's a very poor comparison. I would not use Narrator unless I had to, either, but I would not upgrade from a platform with which I can access all of my previously purchased software to one with which I cannot, just for a better Narrator. Can I play text adventure games using Windows 8.1? How about Lone Wolf and Tenpin Alley? Jim Kitchen's games? If these cannot be played, why upgrade? I cannot see spending more money to get less access. --- Be positive!
