Re: [Audyssey] Entombed 2 Windows and Mac Test Clients
Hello, Yes, that's right. Entombed 2 is completely separate from Entombed 1. Separate tech and completely re-written from the ground up. As for pricing, I'm not sure yet. I think it will be similar to Entombed 1's pricing. It's called the Skeleton Tower and you indeed do go up, but not in the alpha demo. The story and other additions I'll let you know later. I don't want to over-promise and under-deliver. It will be similar scope to Entombed. Possibly larger. Nearly all the game code is written in Lua and can easily be modified to make new additions and changes. The core of the game is written in C# and using Unity for cross-platform compiling. Sorry to hear it's not working on your Mac. I'm developing it on an iMac with Yosemite. I'd expect it to work on nearly any Mac, but it's still early. I might be able to improve the compatibility.

[Audyssey] Entombed 2 Windows and Mac Test Clients
Hello everyone, I thought I'd post here for feedback on the Windows and Mac test versions for Entombed 2. These test versions have no gameplay, but if they run on your computer, then the full game should also. There isn't much to do other than walk around an empty dungeon. If you're keen on trying it out, please let me know how it runs. Windows version: http://endpermian.com/e2/Entombed2Setup.msi Mac version: http://endpermian.com/e2/Entombed2MacOS.zip The Windows version works with - JAWS - Window-Eyes - NVDA - SuperNova - System Access - ZoomText and SAPI. The Mac version will use whatever your default system voice is. To move around and select menu options use the arrow keys or W,S,A,D. You can increase and decrease the voice rate by using the + and - keys. This works for Mac and SAPI on windows. Thanks!

Re: [Audyssey] Galaxy Bowling was audio games popularity
Hi Phil, That's a great concept. My bowling game is currently physics based, but your message gave me some ideas. Right now Galaxy Bowling models 13 game types from across the world and a few fictional ones (like 100 pins mode.) I'm thinking about making an audio cue where the ball is on the lane before you roll it. You can then spin it left or right as it goes down the lane. I'll see if I can make some headway on this in the next few days. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] audio games popularity
Hello, In regards to Entombed - I always wanted to make it modable, but the architecture would not allow it. It would be easier to re-write the entire game. Although Entombed didn't earn a lot compared to the effort (2 years or so of development), I think I could make a similarly scoped game today faster due to my experience. It's always been my intention to create a sequel, and I've made a start on the foundation. The idea is to make it as modifyable as possible. All aspects of the game could be changed by the community. I think the game would take on a life of its own then and last longer than Entombed has. When you talk about developers leaving the community, I'm not one of them. I'm just a very quiet lurker and I still have a keen interest in making games. The biggest problem I have now is lack of resources. I have a few popular mobile games and they demand a lot of time and effort. Cheers! Jason On Fri, Dec 19, 2014 at 10:56 AM, Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Valiant, That is true. The people who have the skills to make really high quality audio games don't stay around long because if they have the skills to make high quality audio games they probably have the skills required to get a decent paying job in that field. Therefore making games for free or even commercially for the blind isn't in their long term best interests. We have seen this happen several times just over the last decade or so. Basically, it comes down to two things time and money. If there isn't enough money in making audio games for the blind the person who has the skills isn't going to take the time. Not when he or she can spend that same amount of time working for a mainstream company and make lots more money doing it. The little money made off of audio games isn't really enough to pay for the developer's time, and therefore it often comes down to doing it for the enjoyment of it. Cheers!

The people who are really going nuts and creating amazing games with lots of mechanics, the ones who actually could take the community beyond what it knows, are creating a nice game or 3, then leaving the audio gaming community. Why is this? My guess would be because they have the skills they need to get a real paying job. I like what I'm working on, but if someone saw that and said oh wow I like your skillset, you should think about joining our company. Since you know this much it is obvious you can learn code. We'll train you to use our own language and you can write something we need done. If something like that happened to me, I would be hard pressed not to just drop the game I'm working on. Because while it is going to be a paid game, I don't look for it to make anywhere near enough money to pay for my time. I'm doing it for fun, the ability to play the game myself, the attention in the community, and what money I can get out of it. But we are often jobless, have the idea to make games and sell them for a little cash to hopefully help mom and dad pay our bills, or what have you, and then because we are actually achieving these things, we then just naturally have some of what it takes to actually have a job, if I'm making any sense? I didn't do nearly as good a job explaining as I meant. Basically the very fact that we might have a programmer in our community who can make great audiogames pretty much by definition means we have someone who won't be staying, at least not full time by any means.

That will open a new xml. it should also open the connections dialogue in that xml, where the first field is the name, like alter aeon or aardwolf or pretty much anything you want the title of the window to be, next is the host name, then the port. Press enter, and it should connect. You may need to type sdisconnect if it automatically connects to alter aeon -- can't remember if it does, but if it does just do that then press f4 then enter to open and close the connection dialogue. Make sure you save the xml, which it should prompt you to do when closing an unsaved new xml, but just to make sure you don't have to recreate it every time :D.

[Audyssey] hadley courses
I work for the Hadley School for the Blind in the computers services department. Hadley has students all over the world If anyone wants more information they can go to www.hadley.edu Hadley has two Chess courses which are Chess for Beginners and Chess Principles and Strategies.

All you really need is a standard ascii text editor like Windows Notepad. For instance, if you wanted to write a simple hello world program in Python copy the following code into Notepad and save it as hello.py. #Hello World #Version 1.0 #Written by Thomas Ward print Hello world! raw_input(Press enter to continue:) When you click on hello.py it will display a simple text message, hello world, and prompt you to press enter to exit the program. That's all you have to do to begin using Python. Second, is there a specific reason why you picked 3.2? The reason I'm asking is if you want to do serious Python development the majority of packages such as Pygame are for Python 2.7. So if you wanted to write games I'd recommend Python 2.7.3 and Pygame 1.9. Most Python developers have not moved to Python 3 yet so you could run into problems developing certain applications as a number of packages and modules have not been upgraded to support Python 3.x yet.

TOMB HUNTER THE TEMPLE OF LIFE When world renown archeologist, Dr. Angela Carter, uncovers the entrance to an underground Egyptian temple near Abydos, believed to be the site of the legendary Osiris Stone--a magical artifact that can grant the owner eternal life--billionaire industrialist, Arthur Vanderbilt, will stop at nothing to get his hands on it. When Dr. Carter refuses to retrieve and give Vanderbilt the Osiris Stone he sends an armed team of mercenaries to Egypt to take the Osiris Stone by force if need be. It soon becomes a race against time as Angela Carter attempts to retrieve the Osiris Stone before Arthur Vanderbilt Something that is easier said than done. As Angela makes her way through the Temple of Life searching for the Osiris Stone she will have to battle a number of enemies including armed mercenaries, sword wielding skeletons, giant crocodiles, poisonous snakes,and the occasional 3,500 year old ancient mummy. She will have to use her superior intelligence to solve puzzles and avoid deadly traps such as: bronze spikes, poison darts, hot pools of boiling lava, large chasms, and other hazards. Along the way she will pick up rare and valuable jewels and treasure. However, once she finds the Osiris Stone she must face the ultimate test to retrieve it. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

[Audyssey] the voice controlled blackjack games
Hi, Gamers, Just a quick review of the two Blackjack games for the iPhone. I've tried both and they are alot alike except for the voices. Both games are very responsive to specific voice commands, though you do have to wait to talk until the dealer has stopped talking. The sounds were very good and the humor was entertaining. The only thing I did not like with both games, which is just a personal opinion, is that after 2 or 3 rounds of being told which cards I had been dealt, the dealer stopped explaining what each voice command does, which was OK because it sped up the game play a little, but the dealer stopped saying which cards I had been dealt. He or she would just say for example, You were dealt a total of 18. Say hit or stay. I would have liked it better if I had been told the card or cards I had been dealt which would have made it feel more like sitting at an actual Blackjack table. Other than that, they are fun and well-done games. Sincerely, Allen --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Temporal. Aprone's time traveling strategy game.
I agree. This game idea sounds totally cool.

To clarify, this is Not! the game I've been developing with Locutus that will be using head tracking technology. As you all know by now, I can't keep myself from branching out into other ideas, so I present to you, yet another side project. Temporal. The current status of the game is pretty rough. I don't even have any sounds in it, except for screen reader dialog. The reason I'm posting this game so early, is because I need to get people's reactions to the game's concept. As far as I know, no other audio games work like this one, so I don't want to invest too much time into it until I know people don't hate it, haha! In Temporal, you awaken in a government facility deep underground. You don't know how long they have been studying you, but you have been kept in a drug induced, unconscious state, to prevent you from escaping. Through some type of mistake, you have awaken. Keeping you unconscious was this facility's first line of defense against the most powerful human ever to walk the earth. you. Using your powers, to jump forward and backward through time, you must escape the lab they have been keeping you in. This game requires you to keep careful track of what you have already done, as well as planning ahead for what you intend to still do. Traveling through time means you will share the environment with all other instances of yourself who were present at that time. Confusing? If you jump back in time, you may run through a room where a past version of yourself is busy attacking the guards. When you hold open a door now, later you will travel back in time to this point in order to run through it! With everything going on, you must always be careful not to run into any past versions of yourself, or you will destroy the continuity of events and lose the game. I only have 1 mission done, but it should be enough to give you all a good idea of how the game is played.

Re: [Audyssey] Important MOTA News
Hi, Thomas, Will the user of the 3d version need to have a surround sound speaker system in oerder to play? Thanks Allen - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Thursday, June 24, 2010 8:42 AM Subject: [Audyssey] Important MOTA News Hello everyone, In light of a few things I said on the Audyssey mailing list over the past couple days or so I’ve done a lot of thinking about the future of Mysteries of the Ancients. It is no secret I’ve never been fully satisfied about it being a side-scroller, and it is also no secret I promised the community a side-scroller in place of Montezuma’s Revenge. So I thought about the problem, and I have decided upon a course of action that I believe not only will satisfy everyone involved it might actually increase the number of sales for this title too. So what’s the plan? Well, the plan is really quite simple. Beginning with beta 13 or beta 14 I’m going to offer two different downloadable versions of Mysteries of the Ancients. One in the original side-scroller format all of you currently have, and an all new 3d first-person version more like what I had originally planned on creating to begin with. This way it is up to the customer to decide which version he or she likes and can purchase either version from the USA Games store when the game is ready for sale. One of the reasons I have decided to go ahead and do this is that since MOTA beta 12 the Genesis Engine has proven itself to be fairly stable for game development now. I’ve fixed a few things here and there, updated some things, and beta 13 looks really stable. So taking that into account it really wouldn’t be that hard to go ahead and create an all new 3d first-person game using the engine as most of the functionality is already there. All of the basic functions like jumping, running, walking, etc is already in the engine. It is simply a matter of mapping the right 2d or 3d functions to the right keys. As for the game levels those would have to be redrawn for the fps version, of course, but that’s nothing compared to writing an entire engine like Genesis from scratch. I’d say within two weeks, tops, I could have a 3d fps version of the same game sitting up there on the website along side the side-scroller. So why not go ahead and do it right? The other reason is that this way will satisfy everyone including me. This allows the customer to buy and download exactly the version they want. If side-scrollers are your thing go for it. If you are like me and want a full 3d fps type format for the game that will be available too. If you want both you can buy both. The sky is the limit as they say. The only other developer I know who has tried this was Edos Interactive. Back when they released Tomb Raider Legend they released two different versions of the same game. They released a side-scroller version for mobile phones, and they also released a complete 3d third-person perspective version for the Play Station and PC. I’m sure they did it for different reasons, but the idea is that this has been done before, and apparently the marketing ploy worked. People purchased both because they could have the full 3d version on their PC and then take the mobile version of the game with them on their mobile to play on their coffee break. It was a pretty good idea as far as I am conserned and so I've decided to follow in their footsteps. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. I know this is surprising even for me. However, I think this is the best of both worlds as far as I am concerned. It is one of those cases where you can have your cake and eat it too.

Re: [Audyssey] startrek games
Hi, Thomas, I would love an LW style of Star Trek game. LoneWolf was one of my favorite games so a Star Trek style would be awesome and one I'd definitely have no problem waiting a while for. Allen On Jun 10, 2010, at 7:06 PM, Thomas Ward wrote: Hi Dark, H...This is something that has been suggested before, and I certainly could do it. I guess it all depends on how many people would be in favor of that style of game. I think you are right that a Lone Wolf style Star Trek game would be infinitely more cool than a strategy game like STFC. For one thing in light of recent discussions of expantion packs etc this is the perfect style of game to do it in. The game could ship with 10 to 15 missions initially and I could add missions to it here and there giving it nearly unlimited replay value in the process. Like Lone Wolf over time it could end up having a hundred or more missions to choose from. Another way to add replay value to the game is to allow you to select a specific ship and class from the game setup menu. That way you could technically play the same mission multiple times trying out various different classes of ships in the Federation fleet. One time you might select a Defiant-Class ship, another time a Galaxy-Class, another time a Nebula-Class, etc. The replay value of this feature alone is huge. So your idea has maret. So my question to the rest of the list is what do you say. Should we abandon the fleet strategy game and go with a Lone Wolf style simulation where you take on individual missions and campaigns, or should we proceed with the real time strategy game in production now?

So if she comes under attack she will probably lose more health than she gains using that potion as it will only restore a certain amount of health over x amount of time. Another thing to consider here is I've updated some enemies in the game as well. For example, the harpies are now more true to the harpies from Greek mythology as well as many RPG type games. Instead of throwing lightning bolts they have claws that do considerable damage to the human body when they attack. Besides the contact damage they inject Angela with a toxic poison that will kill her gradually over time unless she drinks a potion to counter act the poison. Between body damage and poison you may need to drink more than one potion to get back up to full health. Does that answer your question?

Re: [Audyssey] Public betas vs private testing
I'm weighing in a bit late on this conversation, but I've generally had a positive experience with open public testing. There are a few things I'm worried about though. For one, as your application gets better, you start competing with your final product. I'm also a little worried about people burning out on the game before it's even released, but I think I can circumvent that by adding a heap of new content for the final release. Another problem is early conversations mention a lot about the instability. That's normal in young applications but it might throw some people off. As for the benefits, there were a lot of those too. It has built a great community which you wouldn't have had if you had a surprise release. Once everyone knows a new version is imminent, there is a lot of excitement too. I started public testing extremely early because I really wasn't sure how to proceed with the interface. Walking around a random dungeon had to have special consideration. Plus all the important decisions about SAPI and others were up in the air. Now I have a much better idea and I think the next project will benefit a lot from that. From a game sales standpoint, I don't know if public or private testing is better yet though. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Sudoku for newbies, possibly dummies
Do these Sudoku games have infinite puzzles and online scoreboards? I created a random sudoku generator for a phone app and think it could be adapted to an audiogame. I know it's a popular game, but maybe I can offer an alternative version. Generating sudoku puzzles was absolutely not trivial, but that unique feature wasn't enough to get the app noticed in a sea of sudoku games unfortunately. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Netbooks and games
Netbooks have to have seriously capped memory and processor speeds to meet Microsoft's discounted XP licensing. I'd hesitate to use them for gaming unless you're sure the new netbook is faster than your current laptop. One thing that's often overlooked is the front side bus speed. Everything might look the same on paper initially between netbooks, but you could be in for a real surprise if you don't do a lot of research. Newer netbooks come with a very stripped down version of Windows 7. I'd go for that over XP. Cheers!

[Audyssey] music buying question
Does anyone know of a site where individual songs can be purchased and then downloaded? I used to use the Walmart music downloads but that site will make my remaining hair turn white from the frustration. It used to be a breeze to buy a song then download it as an .mp3 file, but they obviously have changed it. So I hope someone out there knows of a nicely accessible online music store.

Re: [Audyssey] another game programming question
C++ wins cross platform absolutely. But with virtual desktops, it's not as big of a win as it used to be. If you go C++, you absolutely must learn object oriented programming concepts. C++ supports these, but they aren't as elegant as more recent programming languages like C#. If you use C#, you have no choice but to write object oriented code, so there really isn't an issue there. .NET is well thought out and modern. You don't need to use the XACT sound tool (the much maligned sound creation engine mentioned in this thread) to make sounds for games using the XNA framework. XNA comes built in with sound and music libraries that don't use XACT at all. They support loading mp3s as well. XACT is powerful but clunky, buggy, and a million other negatives. As for security, .NET can be decompiled. But if you're using modern programming concepts (which you will be) no one is going to be able to recompile it. It essentially obfuscates itself. Of course, obfuscating the code is another option. Is anyone going to want to spend the thousands of hours to reverse engineer your game? Not likely. If you had top secret code or projects, it's a much bigger problem. C# supports a design concept called RAD, or rapid application development. You will write larger / more complex programs much, much faster in C# than writing the same application in C++. C# also supports automatic garbage collection which is a big deal when it comes to memory management and debugging. The biggest drawback to C# is that you're essentially tied to Microsoft. You have to intelligently weigh the benefits to porting your game to all platforms. How many Linux players are you going to get really? What about Macs? How many players do you lose if they can virtualize your game in their native operating system? Is it still worth it? Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Bug in entombed 1.6
The best thing to do is quit the program entirely, then open it back up and resume if you've been playing a long time. By long time, I mean, it must take hours and hours to get to that level. Don't suffer with saves taking so long, just exit out, restart, and be on your way. I'll optmize its memory and processor usage as I develop it. As it's still in testing, this is less of a priority at the moment. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Entombed Query
I'm finishing up the engine with Entombed right now and working on more content. It will go to beta soon. As for the actual release, I'm not sure. Some of the new content is fairly complex - like new spells, but it will go faster than the majority of the alpha. I'm hoping to have the next alpha version ready by the end of October, but I'm not sure yet. The first beta version will follow that and will focus on stability issues.

Re: [Audyssey] entombed problems
Hi, Feel free to email me privately. Do you mean the install appears to hang or the game itself? It's possible the installer is trying to download the components it needs to run the game. It uses Microsoft .NET 3.5 and few other frameworks, but .NET is the largest of the lot. Thanks!

Re: [Audyssey] Entombed stuff
Hi Allan, I'm writing Entombed. I'm glad you like it! I've been working on it about a year and a half now and it's great to know it's well-liked so far. The waypoint was orignally intended to allow you to set a location in the dungeon and then recall that location with a press of the button. I haven't finished implementing it though. So all it does is record the location, you can't recall it. There are still issues with Wanderers I need to address. They were such a complex job to implement but I'll try to whither down the bugs as I release updates. Same with the double named items and such. Locate Secret is a puzzling problem for me. I didn't want to make it too easy to find a secret via the scroll, but right now they're too cumbersome. Armors are a little less complex than weapons so their entire effectiveness is determined by their quality and the material they're made out of. I'll give them a calculated defensive value that can be reported. I guess it'll be a combination of the wearer's skill, the quality of the item, and the material its made out of. That reminds me too! I need to add the damage bonuses applied to weapons based on the wearer's skill too! That's an important omission I've made there. Characters shouldn't start with armor they can't wear, so that's another bug I have to track down. Sometimes information that's critical to either information or the timing of sounds can't be interrupted. This can happen if a lot of interruptable text flow into one that isn't interruptable -- making the entire sentence uninterruptable. I hope that wasn't too confusing of a description. If you haven't alreadly, join the Entombed message group here too: http://groups.google.com/group/entombedgame/ Glad you like it!

Re: [Audyssey] Xact was Blood money Online fighting
Hi Che, I use Xact with Entombed. It's a very clunky interface and I think difficult to make accessible. Most .NET developers prefer other sound solutions that are less confusing, but I like it a lot. It was created to allow sound designers create and test their sounds without needing a programmer's input. So it's basically a sound designer's tool. I like it because it allows me to easily mix sounds and has a few excellent features but also some crippling drawbacks. The good: - It has automatic provisions to allow you to randomize sounds. You can randomize pitch, location, volume, and more. I can't stress how awesome this is. For example, from one footstep sound, you can get an infinite variety of plays that don't sound exactly the same. I use this all the time with Entombed. - It allows to easily mix sounds. Each sound by default is set at negative 12 decibles which allows you enormous freedom in mixing them together. - You can dynamically change sounds in code. I use this in Entombed to alter the sounds of monsters who have been shrunk. It makes their voices higher pitched. - You can dynamically position 3D audio. - You can set up sound play lists to be random, or follow a set order, without having to program anything in code. The bad: - It doesn't support .mp3s. WAV files only. Wav files are okay for sound effects because Xact compresses them. But for music, Xact is absolutely not what you want. Use the built-in media API that comes with XNA 3.0 for music. Ironically, the built-in sound effect class is pretty barebones which is why I use Xact. It's fine to get simple sounds working in your game, but it would be hell to work with on a large project. - Its minorly unstable. I've had it crash numerous times. - Its clunky and the interface is difficult to navigate. - It's complicated to get your head around initially. If the tool was designed better it would be fantastic. It's not that Xact isn't powerful, it's whoever designed the interface wasn't quite as skilled as those who wrote the engine.

Re: [Audyssey] entomb things
Hi Al, I'll answer your questions without spoiling anything if I can. 1. Zombie casters (or any other job) retain their skills. This is intentional. I think it keeps zombies interesting. A zombie of a heroic fighter will be completely different from a mage. One thing that is unintended is zombie healers healing themselves. Any kind of normal healing should be impossible. 2. The monster artificial intelligence doesn't consider skills at the moment when picking up items. So they can cheat a little and use things on the ground even if they don't have the skill. 3. The fortune teller skill is ambiguous by design. There is nothing concrete about fortune telling. I think you'll be able to see clearly what it does if you raise it a few points and try the fortune teller's attack ability. It also affects other things related to fortune telling, but I don't want to get into a habit of explaining too much. It might take some mystery out of the game. 4. Bronze weapons are rarer because they require more skill to make. Currently only human and orc craftsman can make bronze weapons. 5. Thieves can try to hide if they're alone, but enemies can still attack them. That's by design. So if you have fast character, you might be able to hide and get a sneak attack in before the enemy gets their turn but it's very risky. 6. I've just completed ranged weapons and ammunition for the next build. There will be more weapon choices. I have to keep the number down initially until I'm positive everything works correctly. Once I'm to the content phase of development, there will be a Cambrian explosion of new armor and weapons. Everything you mentioned is supported in the engine and more. Thanks! I'm glad you like the game! Jason On Fri, Mar 13, 2009 at 6:23 AM, Allan Thompson allan1.thomp...@cox.netwrote: Hi, I wanted to list a few things I noticed aboutthis awesome game. 1. When spellcasters get zombified, they retain their spell casting ability. Is this intentional? 2. In one battle, an orc mage grabbed an iron breastplate and put it on. Since I know mages can't wear plate armor, this could either be a glitch, or a unique property of being an orc. 3. Some skills are not really defined very well. For instance, the tell fortune skill does not seem to have any value whatsoever. What exactly does it do? 4. The reason I thought copper was better then bronze in the game was that copper weapons are a dime a dozen, I picked up dozens of them in the first two levels, but the bronze items were much rarer. 5. can a thief, alone in a battle, use hide? When I had a thief who was alone, I attempted to hide but the enemy targeted on me and hit me as if I never hid. On the other hand, when an enemy thief is alone, they get to hide, and then attack in the same round. 6. Are other weapons and armor going to be introduced into the game? For example shields, bracers and arm/leg greaves. Some weapons might be the mace, flail, morning star, axes of all sorts, spears etc and so forth. thanks, al --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] [Spam] entomb question
The footstep sounds. A step on stone is a correct movement. A sandy sound means you brushed up against a wall and can't go any more in that direction. There is no penalty for walking into a wall. Some audio games I played would blast this shrieking noise whenever you bumped into a wall. I thought that was ridiculous, so I tried to make it as inoffensive as possible. The stairways are announced when you enter a room with one. They currently don't have any audible sound outside that. I'll see about making the weapons and armor easier to distinquish. Copper is in-fact harder than bronze, but it depends on the alloy. I just took the average hardness for bronze. Making bronze weapons had advantages over copper because adding tin (or lead, or arsenic) lowered the melting temperature of the alloy. This isn't modeled in Entombed, so for now at least, copper is the better metal when compared to bronze. I might make copper edges duller in some future update to simulate some advantages bronze had over copper weapons. Glad you're enjoying it! It's in heavy development right now and probably will be for some time.

Re: [Audyssey] more entombed things
Hi, The key below escape is a key I use for testing. I sometimes forget to disable it. It's not used for anything in normal game play. Zombie Rot potions cure zombie rot. Zombie rot used to be a serious plague in earlier versions of Entombed, but it doesn't show up much (or at all) in the new version. It will certainly have another outbreak in the future. Being afflicted with Zombie Rot is a serious condition that should be treated immediately. Your character has no hand preference. They tend to hold things in their left hand because it's the first choice when wielding weapons. No magic points command yet, but I'll fix that in the future. You start with 100. Every spell currently costs 10. You can replenish them by resting. I plead the 5th on corpses and body parts. They may or may not be useful.

Re: [Audyssey] entomb question
Hello, Entombed is the game I'm currently programming. The effectiveness of armor is intimately tied to the material's hardness. So all cloth-type armor provides the least protection, then leather types, finally, the metals. The metals use their real-life values, so you can use these as a guide. Copper is harder than bronze (but harder to work with), Iron is harder than copper. What armor you can wear is dependent on what job you chose at character creation. Fighters can wear all metal armor. Thieves can wear leather. The others can wear cloth-types. Hope that helps! Thanks!

Re: [Audyssey] What language for gaming? Was:Re: dark roomandprogramming for Wiimotes
You mean program a computer game using the Wiimote? I think that's the only possibility with VB.net.

Was:Re: dark room andprogramming for Wiimotes Hi Ken, Not sure what you mean by vb .net express looked a mass of confusion . Are you referring to the IDE? If so, it takes a bit of time to get used to, but once you do, you will really appreciate the power and abilities it offers you. As for programming any halfway serious audio game, I've looked at a bit of java code, and I'd say visual basic is more or less on level ground with it in terms of difficulty to program, which in my opinion isn't that hard. When I started out in 2005 looking to get into it, I looked long and hard at several options. I thought about C#, but I can do the exact same things without having to warp my brain around there weird syntax and use of odd symbols. Before you C coders out there get bent out of shape, I want you to know I don't care what language you use, same as I don't care what kind of computer you use, for me whatever gets the job done with minimal fuss is what I am going to use, and for me that was vb .net express. I'm not putting down C# or any other language, and if I were doing graphics intensive stuff, I probably would have gone with C# or something similar. I've done about all you can imagine an audio game could use, from joystick inputs, to full featured online play with virtually no lag. All this was done with visual basic .net. The single exception to this is force feedback, which I was not able to put into rail racer, which chapped my stick, and perhaps is fixed by now. I am about to release my second and third commercial games in the last two years, all three of which were built on visual basic, and with virtually no programming experience 4 years ago to speak of. I can't give a higher reccomendation than that for anyone looking to program audio games for the blind. It has taken a lot of time and tenacity, but as the old saying goes, nothing worth doing comes easy. I encourage you to take another look at vb .net, lord knows we need all the good accessible developers out there we can get, and in my humble opinion I think java is going to leave you lacking in the end.

Hi all, I am ramping up plans for an online head to head fighting game. At first it will mostly be a test bed for latency issues, so I can see what the limitations are for head to head combat over the internet. One idea I am picking at is the inclusion of The nintendo Wii controllers for the game. It is possible to use the Wii controllers via a blue tooth hookup with a PC. Having used these controlers on my Wii, I can tell you they are amazing. In the boxing game, the faster you punch with the controller, the harder your character punches. In Mortal Combat, you draw a pattern in the air with your controller to execute certain moves. All of this functionality is available with the PC port of the controller software. My question is, how much would the average blind gamer be into this? I think the draw to a head to head fighting game would be good, assuming lag issues could be worked out, but would the average gamer be willing to drop the $50 or so necessary to buy a controller and blue-tooth hook up? The possibilities for useing the Wii controllers is immense for accessible gaming, most especially for action titles. The balance board can be used as well, another $80 or so. Think of the ability to dodge your opponent simply by leaning, or run away from a monster by, well, running. Anyhow, it is an exciting concept, what do you guys think?

[Audyssey] soundrts version
Hi, gamers, I went to download SoundRTS but could only find the version 1.0 beta10. After all this time I've been reading about SoundRTS on this list it is still only in beta?

Re: [Audyssey] beta of mysteries of the ancients
Well in Entombed's case, I'm new to the community so I thought a broader test phase would be better. It's true, there is a real danger in turning people off your game when they test it expecting a much more polished experience. I think it helps to only open the game to testers when it will exceed their expectations. That first impression is important. Just things I've learned to better apply to future projects.

If the dev says its not ready to be released to the general public, which includes people who pre-ordered the game, then its probably not ready to be released. Odds are the game is in a barely playable stage, with plenty of bugs to be ironed out. I imagine the beta testers will be the people who pre-ordered the game, when the game is in a much more playable stage. I have to say I'm surprised games like entombed are available for general testing. In one sense it helps to have more testers so more bugs can be found, but in another sense it draws out a lot of people who are expecting a full game and don't realize its barely been started. Not meant to be taken personally and not directed at anyone in particular but, there you have it. Just my personal opinion. -- --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] railracer and other games crashing please read
I don't know if those other games use XNA. As far as I know, Entombed is the only game that currently uses it. Rail Racer might, I know Che developed that with .NET. If you're getting errors with Entombed, it's likely a prerequisite issue. It can take a long time to install if it has to download and install components. Sometimes you have to restart after installing it, and try again. Jason On Fri, Jan 16, 2009 at 6:05 PM, Daniel Villalon murc...@hotmail.comwrote: Hey, I installed entombed.
