[Audyssey] mud client for the mac

2013-07-13 Thread Mike Maslo
Hi everyone:

Was wondering if anyone knew a mud client which works on the mac? There was a 
program called mudder but the development appears to have been stopped.

If anyone has any suggestions please advise.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Brandon,

Definitely. It is for that very reason Bavisoft is no longer around.
Their website is history, and they were forced to shut down because of their
inability to be contacted. So I highly doubt we will ever hear from them
again.

Cheers!

Hi Michael:

I got past the corpse. I had to have my son click in the middle of the screen

the game.

 Hi Michael.
 
 I'm sorry you're still having difficulties with this, I think I stated in an 
 earlier message on this thread that I completed the game on my IPhone, I 
 haven't as yet installed the update, nor do I plan to in the near future as 
 I've completed the game now.  Also, I don't use a Mac, I can only assume that 
 the PC version operates in a similar fashion and has the same control set as 
 the PC version.  If you are still encountering this issue, I suggest you 
 email the developer who can help you further, it may be the case that older 
 save game versions aren't compatible with the new update, but I don't know.
 
 All the best and sorry I cant help further with this particular issue.

 Hello, Ibrahim.
 I first want to thank you for all the help that you are giving me!
 I would like to know if maybe I need to start a new game.
 I resume the game.
 It said that I was in the access path, then I went to the body and
 listen to the description of each part.
 When it finish with the Our father piece I hit the enter key a couple
 of times and still it does not take me back.
 I am going to share with you how I put the update on my Mac.
 First of course I downloaded the update, then I copied it to the apps
 folder, and it replace the Inquisitor.app.
 Did I do something wrong when I went to update?
 Or could there be a issue with the copy that I got?
 Thanks for your help!

 It's not time dependent.  It's dependent on how much other stuff you
 do.  If you only ever kill one mob, no matter how long you wait,
 you'll never get full exp for it again.
 
 You have to rotate areas.  It can also be easier to dent some mobs
 than others - for example if you're killing spider guards four times
 as often as wolf spiders, you'll always dent on the guards before the
 wolf spiders, and the wolf spiders will undent before the guards do.

I remember a month ago or so I saw there were manuals and help guides I guess 
they were called.

I was wondering if anyone could tell me where to get them from?

I am playing but would like to get any type of help I can get for parts I am

I think it was for newbies or beginners.

Any help again would be sincerely appreciated.

 Well, other than the program files folder I can't actually find any other 
 bits for vip mud  anywhere. Perhaps the problem is not with vipmud, but with
 
 your window eyes scrips or something like that?  If doing all those 
 uninstalls and reinstalls didn't work, you probably do! need to talk to 
 david greenwood about this and to try and gett it working because this 
 sounds like a major bug if it's stopping you from using the program, -  
 and certainly there is no reason why a soundpack should cause this sort of 
 problem  once the client is uninstalled.
 
 Indeed, that's another point, did the soundpack come with any funky 
 scripting that it might have loaded outside of vipmud?
 
 Beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] question regarding emon games

2012-10-16 Thread Mike Maslo
Hi list 

I dont know if i missed it but where can i download this from?

Sent from my iPhone

On Oct 16, 2012, at 6:26 PM, dark d...@xgam.org wrote:

 Hi jessica.
 
 I'm not sure about 32 bit vista, though i believe there are workarounds to 
 run older 16 bit applications on the platform.
 
 to explain about dosbox, dosbox is an emulator, that is it essentially sets 
 up an old dos system on your computer inside your usual operating system.
 
 this is fine for sighted users, however  the problem for people using screen 
 readers is that the text inside that emulated dos environment is not windows 
 text that uses the windows graphic toolkit, so therefore it's not readable by 
 a screen reader.
 
 frank is looking for a way to make dosbox  output readable text, but hasn't 
 found one as yet unfortunately, however I think unlike with 64 bit windows 7 
 vista might be workable or have a decent work around.
 
 I suggest downloading the stand alone eamon deluxe games and giving them a 
 try.
 
 as to frank and contact, well he is a busy fellow, and I think several people 
 have mailed him recently.
 
 Eamon deluxe is extremely good however, sinse not only is it the old eamon 
 games, but many have been enhanced by frank or had new features added.
 
 for instance, as I understand it, in the original text version of the main 
 hall you could only buy  buy bog standard 1 d8 weapons from marco, learn 
 spells, and bank your money, thus making your loot pretty useless, and your 
 character  stats fairly  unalterable.
 
 Other options were around in the raphic main hall but even on an old apple 
 Ii, that wouldn't be accessible.
 
 frank has however in vi compatibility mode created a fully text version of 
 all the extra services, so with all that gold you earn adventuring you can 
 buy much bbetter weapons, pay to  train your character skills or even buy 
 stat upgrades at a efty price.
 
 This means completing  cash slash style dungeons is far more worth doing as 
 it trains your character up for harder things, which is a great addition to 
 the game, though frank has also includedd a character editer to create and 
 preset your own character stats and several pre installed characters if you 
 just want to play the adventures and aren't interested in  building your 
 character up from scratch, though to me, I love seeing my character get 
 stronger over time and thinking that the ggold wil actually help me improve, 
 so I have only used the character editer for purpose of creating strong 
 enough chars to beta test tougher adventures.
 
 Beware the grue!
 
 Dark.

Re: [Audyssey] smuggler 5 help please

2012-10-15 Thread Mike Maslo
Hi list

Can anyone duplicate the following problem 

I am trying to play smugglers and I can't. 

I an using the game in a vm fusion window for I use a Mac. 

Anyway when I go into the game or the tutorial I can not get to the continue 
screen. I see only so far down. If I use the manual move down I land on it but 
jaws does not see it. 

I asked my son who can click on it but I can't. There is no way of pulling the 
screen up or anything. 

If anyone has a idea on how to fix this problem I would sincerely appreciate 
it. T

 Hi Sharren.
 
 So long as you chose the bounty hunter and not another profession with
 different combat skills, taunt should be under the text to fire your guns or
 start missiles, but you might need to minimize the tutorial window sinse
 it's possible the tutorial is covering it.
 
 you might also try  starting a new game, playing a bounty hunter then
 attacking another ship just to see the combat screen (I did this when i was
 testing the fixes for the combat screen issue), so as to get familiar with
 what is on the ship combat screen and what you find without the  tutorial
 window getting in the way.
 
 Also remember that right clicking on things often gives you an explanation
 of what they do. this is certainly true for skills in combat.

 Hi Shaun,
 
 That's definitely not practical for our needs. For one thing if you
 wrap NVDA using the NVDA controller client library then Dos Box will
 only work with NVDA. That excludes Jaws users, Window-Eyes users,
 Supernova users, etc. NVDA is free and open source, but that is beside
 the point. You are making everyone use NVDA weather they want to or
 not for Dos Box support.
 
 Plus once again you assume, as does every other Windows user, that
 everyone uses Windows. There isn't just one accessible operating
 system out there, and if I, or someone else, is going to put the time
 and effort into making Dos Box accessible the right thing to do is to
 make it universally accessible for everyone be they Linux, Mac, or
 Windows users. That can be done, but requires some careful planning.
 
 For example, rather than use some proprietary text to speech API like
 Sapi or Speech Dispatcher, and so on it would be a good idea to link
 Dos Box to ESpeak, which is cross-platform, and then build screen
 review commands into Dos Box itself. In short, use a free and open
 source TTS engine on the back end for speech output, and then build a
 screen reader into Dos Box itself for reading the screen. That would
 be cross-platform while avoiding any platform specific dependencies.
 
 Cheers!

 what about have nvda handle it.
 nvda has a controler library which needs to be put into that version
 to make it speak.
 then you have a choice of a frontend, ie something uses the dosbox
 engine and we have a shell over that.

Re: [Audyssey] iPhone Audio Games Extant question (was: Just tried an Iphone, my thoughts and questions)

2012-10-10 Thread Mike Maslo
I play games on the iPhone and I love the ones there. However I do wish there 
were more especially ones which could be like clue or game books. I would be a 
supporter of games if you created them.

 Hi Dark, Audyssey
 
 Thanks for your interesting review! 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! Oh, and if you 
 really want a full game version of Extant on PC or Mac, please let us know 
 too :-) And if you don't know what Extant is, check this out:

 Well, this morning I just got a free play with an Iphone 5 running voice 
 over.
 
 On a  basic  level I was impressed. Some of the gestures I found more 
 difficult than others, for instance the three finger swipes I didn't quite 
 get the kknack of, but others were  quite natural and I suspect I'd get more 
 used to it in time. The functions of the phone seemed fairly doable too, 
 indeed for kicks I tried searching the ap store for king of dragon pass, 
 managed to find it and read the game details, (I didn't play it because  
 obviously the chap who's phone I was examining didn't necessarily want the 
 game), though sinse it's games and gamebooks I'm mostly interested in on the 
 Iphone, I was pleased that was doable.
 
 the internet I found a little more problematic, I tried searching for  
 audiogames.net, and had a bit of trouble navigating google correctly.
 
 I also got a play with seri which seems a usefull system, though I was 
 disappointed when i was testing it's speech recognition that though it did! 
 know the word dalek, it didn't recognize cyberman and read it as spiderman! 
 :D.
 
 I also asked about commands to flick voice over on and off, lock the phone 
 for  making phone calls etc, and all of that seemed doable.
 
 The only thing I didn't like the sound of is the fact that I can't just copy 
 my music and audio books onto the phone, sinse one reason I wanted  one was 
 to serve as an effective music and audio player, but apparently apple 
 objects to this so  it requires silly itunes, which i'm obviously going to 
 have to investigate. That is the one downer I found, indeed I might 
 considder just buying an mp3 player separately to do that job if Itunes 
 isn't going to behave.
 
 Voice over did look fun though, and I'd actually love to see some audio 
 games that make full use of screen position in this way, for instance I can 
 imagine playing a stratogy battle game could be far easier with a touch 
 screen sinse you could get physical positional information about the various 
 units relative locations and the map, similarly to reading soemthing in 
 braille but with the information being conveyed by audio.
 
 I'm now of course going to have to check out A, Itunes, and B, pricing, 
 sinse an Iphone 5 would be very expensive in the  region of about 500 quid 
 apparently, and I'll C, check whether my current phone contract supports the 
 Iphone and has enough  internet to make things work, (thus far I've not used 
 net so haven't got a very net heavy mobile phone contract, though it is a 
 cheap one and comes with a lot of free minutes).
 
 it does however look like a workable solution and a lot of fun, indeed sinse 
 if everything goes as planned  next year I should be studdying voice in 
 Bermingham  conservatoire, I would be doing a lot of commuting on trains, 
 and it'd be usefull to have something small and portable.
 
  Previously I've used my laptop, but the battery here is pretty dead, and  i 
 would! like to try a lot of the iphone games, and more especially gamebooks.
 
 Beware the grue!
 
 Dark.

before it fully plays. T

 That depends on what you want to do. If you just want to trigger on a line of 
 text to do something, then the following should help:
 
 Basically, in the trigger dialog (control shift eight) there are
 four important fields. The first is the trigger box, where you paste in the 
 line of text you want the client to trigger on. The
 second is the send box, where you enter the text you want sent the match. The 
 third important element is the send to list. Here, you select where you want 
 to send whatever you have in the send box. You could use this to send to the 
 mud, or a plugin, for example. The last important item is the omit from 
 output checkbox. I'll explain in more detail below:
 When you create a trigger, you are telling your client that when it recieves 
 a certain line of text it needs to do something. That something could be send 
 a command to the mud you're playing, send something to a scrip file, or just 
 stop the line from showing up on your screen. The trigger box (the edit field 
 you are in when you hit add) is where you tell the client what line of text 
 you want it to trigger on. Usually, you'll want to copy and paste in a line 
 of text from the mud. If your text contains variables (a name, a gender or an 
 object) you can replace that portion of the string with * (asterisk). For 
 example:
 Bob tells Joe to go to the movies.
 If you wanted the client to trigger on that line, but make sure that the name 
 bob could change, you would use:
 * tells Joe to go to the movies.
 Once you have the trigger on text set up, you need to tell your client what 
 to do with it.
 Press alt s to move to the send box, and type out what you want to have the 
 client send.
 Let's say you wanted to make a trigger to cast a heal spell on a person when 
 they asked. Your trigger would look like:
 Trigger on: * asks for a heal.
 Send: cast heal %1
 The %1 in the send box references the * you put in your trigger on text. The 
 number after the % tells the client which asterisk to look at. In this case, 
 you wanted the name of the person asking for a heal, so you would use %1. If 
 you had multiple asterisks in your trigger on text, the number after the % 
 goes in order.
 Next, press tab twice to move to the send to list. Here is where you specify 
 where the data in the send box goes.
 There are several different options, but the two I'm going to cover are world 
 and script. World is the first option in the list, and it tells the client to 
 send something to the mud. If you were to use the above example of a heal 
 trigger, you would want to set the send to box to world, so that the mud gets 
 the line
 cast heal %1
 Note that the %1 will have transformed into whatever was in the
 asterisk in your trigger on text. The other option I'm going to discuss is 
 script. This tells the mud to send your information in the send box to a 
 plugin. I'm not sure exactly how it works, so you'll have to experiment with 
 that part.
 The last thing I want to go over is the omit from output checkbox. This, in 
 my opinion, is one of the best features of the client. If you put a line of 
 text in the trigger on field, and check this box, the line you specified will 
 not show up on your screen and  will not be processed by plugins. This is 
 really good for spam management.
 
 Hope this rather lengthy message helps,
 John.

Re: [Audyssey] Miriani player base

Where do you play

Sent from my iPhone

On Sep 14, 2012, at 4:49 PM, Meka White, LMP m...@melodicmassage.com wrote:

 An older email asked why Miriani's player base has gone down. I cannot speak 
 for others, but as a former Miriani player, I can tell you why I no longer 
 play.
 
 The game says that it is rp-enforced, and for a long time, the staff 
 enforced it wonderfully.  These days, anything goes and if your ship happens 
 to get blown up, or someone stuns you on a ship for hours because they are 
 just having a bad day in real life, then there is nothing that you as a 
 player can do about it.  You're told to suck it up. 'It's the way I play my 
 character! Don't judge me!  It's how a pirate acts!'  Without going in to 
 detail about just how much bull that is, I will simply state that it is 
 annoying.  It isn't just that something in game has happened, but it's 
 preventing you from continuing to play.  There is nothing that you can do 
 when a team of griefers-and that is exactly what these problem players 
 are-decide that it is their duty to pull their apparent rank and become 
 excessive about what they do.
 
 It is difficult to deduce what is or is not appropriate role-play on Miriani 
 because rules are not in place to form some kind of standard and anything 
 goes.  Insults are freely given over the chatter channel that some will be 
 quick to chime in 'but that's how I rp!'.  Except that it's worse than what 
 you find on Internet forums and makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
 
 I am a huge fan of role-play.  I have done collaborative story writing for 
 years via email, forums, mushes, and instant messengers.  I am all about 
 good characterization, fun plots, and building up a conflict.  Conflicts can 
 be fun, and if done well, even if you come out on the losing end, you can 
 still feel good about your performance in the play.  Unfortunately, Miriani 
 has become a pool where griefers freely swim and the life guards do 
 absolutely nothing.  I blame the staff more than anything. People will 
 generally play within the parameters that you set for them.  If they don't, 
 and continue to be a nuisance, then staff should bring action down.  How are 
 players supposed to know what they should be doing if staff don't step in? 
 Of course, I suppose I assume that the average person isn't going to go out 
 of their way to be a complete jackwagon and would try to be decent, but what 
 do I know?
 
 There are so many features of the game that I truly enjoy.  But the griefers 
 and the staff's complacency in dealing with them is why I do not play there 
 any longer and have found something else.
 
 Warmly,
 Meka

 Hi all.
 
 I was thinking about something. Why is it that we didn't respond as
 well to a  voice request for this Road to Rage game as we did to
 Swamp? I finally figured it out. By the time Jeremy needed voices,
 many of us had already payed Swamp. It was almost a household name, as
 they say. Road to Rage is actually the first time I've heard a title
 to the game. Other than now, this game was just listed as a game
 that's in development. It sounded neat, and it is pretty cool, but
 without that play experience, I am actually unsurprised at the limited
 response to the voice acting request. I hope that, now the game is in
 play, people respond to it better. It is simple, but it is also new,
 and it has great potential.
 
 Good luck, and God's Speed:

 Hi, all.
 
 I've heard a lot of good things about the Mudder client for the Mac. I 
 purchased it this morning, but I don't think I have it set right. I can't get 
 voiceover to stop speaking. It just reads and reads and reads, very slowly, I 
 might add. This doesn't work well in most of the muds I play. So, is there a 
 way to get it to stop reading, and to speed up its rate of speech? Also, are 
 there other helpful settings I might not know about that will make it more 
 accessible with VO? For instance, I don't always see the edit box to put 
 commands into. It seems that, when mudder goes on one of its insane reading 
 binges, that edit box goes away. Is there something I can do to fix this?
 
 It looks like it could be a really nice client after a bit of tweaking.

 Hi gamers
 
 The reason we stopped the demos was when we updated it to the SAPI voice we 
 ran into some changes that had to be made to continue the demos.  Some of the 
 more knotty tech support problems were associated with the demos as well.  So 
 we decided to put them online.  The problem is that we have a very narrow 
 bandwidth and so far new development has bumped redoing the demos.  It is 
 still on the drawing boards, but we really want to work on iPhone and iPad 
 games, as well as finishing the ones we have already started.
 
 Dark and others are right that the games do have the same outcome.  But the 
 scoring is based on correctness and efficiency.  So there is re-playability.  
 Each story is different, but shares some characters.  You are the detective 
 who solves the case.
 
 One Inspector Cyndi game comes with the Perception GameBook, along with a

I have to say that I liked the way that the old menu system

 chased, but could (and pause the game) otherwise. I was under the
 impression that the menu in standard game play would still pause,
 and suffered a miserable death as a consequence of having to talk
 to somebody. As far as I'm concerned, it's grossly unfair that we
 can't pause the game for any reason.
I haven't had much experience with the new weapons in
 multiplayer (affect of the previously mentioned death), but they
 seem to be nice in the solo maps. However, the more weapons we
 get the more crucial it becomes that we have an updated weapon
 guide to make sense of it all. I do, however, like the way the
 weapons are organized now.
 
 That's all for now,

 it is true that even a pc with the best screen reader is not of the same 
 level of access, ie, effortlessness as a sighted user would experience.
 
 for example, I am right now checking my mails. I have to look at (ie listen 
 to supernova tell me), the title, subject, sender etc of each as I arrow 
 through them, deleting some, replying to others etc. A sighted user could 
 skim read all the mails on a page in a short space, and delete spam or 
 unnecessary mail very much more quickly using the mouse, simply by virute of 
 the screen overview.
 
 So, access technology is not currently, even on the best system the equal of 
 what a sighted person does, and I expect the Iphone is in the same catagory.
 
 That being said, unfortunately there isn't a choice. As said with the windows 
 7 debate, microsoft are going for inconvenient, flashy interfaces with no way 
 of changing their look or feel, simply because they are motivated only by the 
 acquisition of prophit and nothing else, however, failing a massive change in 
 world policy there's not much we can do about this, other than try what 
 workarounds are! available and try to promote more access.
 
 i'm in fact quite amazed any sort of screen reading exists for touch screens 
 at all, since I would've expected the same response as I myself got when 
 requesting more accessible menue updates for the Wii from Nintendo,   
 there aren't enough visually impared people to make us money developing it!
 
 So, all we can do is live with the workarounds, try and promote access, and 
 get what good use we can out of what is there.
 
 That's why I myself will be getting an Ipad or Iphone hopefully in the near 
 future.

  Hi Damien,
 
  Well, unfortunately as I said in my prior post touchscreen devices are
  becoming more common. Not just on smart phones and tablet PCs but the
  next generation of Windows laptops and desktops will begin shipping with
  touchscreens as well.
 
  The way Windows 8 is designed instead of a start menu we now have a start
  screen with icons tiled across the screen in rows and columns like a
  table. Perfect for a touchscreen, or mouse but a pain in the rear if you
  try to get to those icons using a keyboard or buttons on a smart phone.
  However, love it or hate it I think touchscreen technology is here to
  stay.
 
  As for Apple's iPhone I personally don't think it is too bad. Yes, there
  is a learning curve involved, but like everything in life practice makes
  perfect. I understand your frustration, but I also sense perhaps you just
  gave up rather than  sticking with it. A lot of us who have used iPhones
  just stuck with it until we figured it out. Rather than getting
  frustrated and throwing in the towel we practiced at it until we got good
  at using the phone.

  As for Nokia now choosing Windows, that actually seems better, since

 Hi Charles,
 My speed didn't change in two weeks of constantly trying to use it. That's 
 the only phone I had during that period, and I tend to make a lot of calls, 
 send a lot of text, and that's not including trying to find all the cool 
 games that are out there for it. So you could probably say I spent a good 
 five to six hours a day trying to use it. Needless to say my battery was flat 
 about once every 36 hours. I could've kept on with it, but what would have 
 happened if I'd have taken the contract using that phone and still not sussed 
 it in three to four months? I'd have pretty much had no phone at all. And 
 that's why I got even more frustrated than I normally would have, since I 
 knew I was on a time limit.

 Damien.

 You're missing one of the points, though.  You say that you shouldn't have 
 to spend 5 minutes doing what should take seconds, but, what you're not 
 realizing is that, with practice and familiarity with the device, your speed 
 and accuracy increases, cutting down the time.  Although you may not be able 
 to keep up with sighted people when texting and other applications, you can 
 get proficient enough with the device so that it isn't all that time 
 consuming.

 Hi Thomas,
 Yeah, maybe I did give up. But like I said. That's because I don't believe 
 it is practical to have to sit with a phone spending five minutes trying to 
 access something when you could access the same thing on, say Simbian or XP 
 in a matter of seconds. And if touch screen is the way forward, then I 
 don't know what I'll be doing with computers because it'd be even worse. I 
 couldn't imagine me having to be slow on a computer. That'd drive me insane 
 and make me feel very small.

 Damien.

 Well then that's even all the more reason to complain.
 The more things like this I'm hearing, the more and more I wish sighted

 even know how to access anything on it, so I dread to think what I'd be like

 why now I wouldn't touch a touch screen device with a bargepole.
 As for Nokia now choosing Windows, that actually seems better, since there's 
 a whole lot of games already out for Windows. Don't know how accessible it'll 
 be, I suppose it depends how good current screenreaders support it. Though 
 again if it's anything like or complex than Vista, I think I'll give it a

 Hi Thomas,
 Well, if there are going to be games for the mobile market, I'd love to see
 some for Nokia devices running Simbian. More and more games are coming out
 for IOS devices and it'd be nice to see some for devices that are more
 accessible.
 Sure, Apple try and do the voiceover app, but when I tried an IPhone it was
 pointless and useless since the interface was purely all touch screen. How
 other blind people manage with it is beyond me and goes straight over my
 head.
 I tried it for two weeks before I got impatient with it so I went back to
 the lovely button operated Nokia and Talks setup again.
 I'd support Simbian myself, but looks like it's a trek down C++ lane, which
 doesn't sound appealing.

 Hi Dark,
 If I were to go into my deepest thoughts about touch screen, I'd have to ban
 myself for profanity. Trust it to say, I hate them with a passion and think
 that adding voiceover to a touch screen device is just another corrupt
 twisted pro sighted business way of conning the law and getting away with
 discrimination. The fact that so many VI people have found a way to conquer
 that is rather impressive to me, and if that's the case, then so be it. But
 I think it's rather unnecessary to have to do that when the business itself
 should make more of an effort. Just because they don't know we exist, or
 choose to believe we don't exist, doesn't make us go away. And if companies
 continue to design things in their own eye happy way, in another twenty or
 thirty years it's probably unlikely we'd be able to use anything in the
 mainstream market and we'll be right back to square one with specially
 designed excessively expensive products and the like.
 That's only my opinion, I know tons of you won't agree, but this debate goes
 slightly away from games so I don't want this to turn into a full blown
 argument as to which is the best operating system to work with.
 That's me off my soapbox now.

 Of course, I've not tried one yet, so I might be jumping to conclusions,

 Hi,
 Just because some mainstream games have this method doesn't mean all games 
 for the mainstream community or otherwise have to have it... I mean after 
 all there are a fare few games for the mainstream gaming community that 
 allow you to put things in banks or whatever they might call them, runescape 
 being a very notable example. I think any strategy you can imagine from 
 letting you keep everything when you die to having lives to having banks to 
 having check points to almost anything else can be found in the mainstream 
 gaming community, so let's remain open here, I say.
 Just my thoughts.

 Lives wouldn't be unfair, it's a mainstreaming gaming stratigy, and you
 don't here the millions of mainstreaming gamers complaining, do you?
 Thought not.
 If Jeremy implimented lives, it would add, in my opinion, another level of
 stratigy, to how you can keep those lives, or recover them quickly if you
 die.
 Yes, if you lose all your lives, you start over with the basics, and rep you
 had when you lost your last set of lives, no I don't like just cloaning
 standards, call it poetic license, lol, , but you are reverted to the ax and
 pistol just like you are now.

 My thoughts, death on missions is no more harsh than anywhere else,
 especially considering what you stand to gain if you survive, as compared
 with the comparable time looting.  I completely disagree with any change
 that waters down the already weakened consequences of dying, especially when
 you stand to gain for five minutes of survival rep and experience that would
 take hours of looting to gain.  Big risk, big reward.  Too risky, don't go
 on missions.
 
 And by the way, I say this who am trying to learn some new styles of play
 and thus am dying quite frequently, and have certainly lost 20,000 rep worth
 of equipment at various times.  I'd favor a lives system, where once your
 lives are gone you start over from zero.  Perhaps gaining a level gives you
 a new life.  I know this won't be adopted as too many people would shriek
 about it being unfair, never mind that it's a gaming standard in the
 mainstream world.

 Hi all,
 
 Recently the USA Games blog has been getting hammered by spam and this 
 morning the spam attacks have been larger than they've ever been. I logged 
 into the USA Games dashboard only to find a total of 387 messages waiting 
 for moderation and 366 of them were definitely spam and the other 21 were 
 questionable. None of the comments were from people from the Audio Games 
 forum, Audyssey, or USA Games list. That, of course, makes me wonder if 
 anyone here actually uses the blog or not.
 
 Basically, what I want to know is how many people here actually use the USA 
 Games blog, and if you want us to keep it. If not we are in favor of 
 removing Wordpress from the USA Games site and go back to writing up news 
 related items in html as needed. That will prevent people from commenting on 
 articles, making suggestions, etc but will also get rid of the constant spam 
 to the website.
 
 Of course, there are ways we can control the spam by black listing IP 
 Addresses where the spam originates from, black list domains and e-mail 
 addresses, etc but such methods tend to restrict access from perfectly legit 
 users as well. We hate to begin black listing blocks of IP Addresses from 
 say Hotmail knowing that a certain amount of VI gamers might actually be on 
 Hotmail and be black listed simply because the server happens to be 
 hammering our site with spam.
 
 So please let us know if you want the blog to remain, in which case we'll be 
 taking more drastic steps to filter spam, or if you'd rather us just ditch 
 the blog and go back to writing up news in straight html.

To answer the question you asked I would agree low-tech would be best

Sent from my iPhone

On Feb 8, 2012, at 8:16 AM, Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com wrote:

 Hello everyone,
 
 As a lot of you are aware a few weeks ago we made a decision to
 redesign Mysteries of the Ancients and renamed that game Tomb Hunter:
 The Temple of Life. We decided to upgrade to a 3d first-person format,
 and as can be expected got a rather mixed response from the gaming
 community at large. Some loved the idea, and others were decidedly
 upset by the change. So we've been trying to think of a fair solution
 that would make both sides happy and would fulfill our obligations to
 those who preordered Montezuma's Revenge in 2008.
 
 What we essentially have been considering is developing two separate
 games in tandem. The first would be a side-scroller named Mysteries of
 the Ancients, a substitute for Montezuma's Revenge, and the other
 would be our 3d FPS game, Temple of Life. As the Tomb Hunter series of
 games are intended to be an accessible clone of the Tomb Raider games
 I would like them to take on a 3d first-person format to closely
 resemble the game play of the Tomb Raider games. So that left us with
 the question of what exactly to do with  Mysteries of the Ancients.
 Well, we have come up with an idea we believe you will like.
 
 Essentially our solution is to develop a game more closely resembling
 the original concept and the game you preordered. Obviously, given the
 copyright issues at hand we can't create Montezuma's Revenge per say,
 but there are a number of classic video games  such as Montezuma's
 Revenge, Pitfall, etc that have a decidedly Indiana Jones type theme
 to them. So while we can't create Montezuma's Revenge exactly it is
 possible to create something that offers the same sort of game play
 and to be honest something we should have thought of doing a long time
 ago.
 
 In brief what we have been looking at doing is developing a
 side-scroller similar to the Pitfall games where you are in a
 Mezo-American jungle exploring caves, ancient temples, and pyramids
 looking for treasure and artifacts. A long the way you will encounter
 various snakes, giant spiders, skeletons, spirits, etc. There will be
 the usual traps you find in such games like lava pits, fire pits,
 giant spikes, chasms, poison darts, rolling boulders, quicksand, etc.
 Last but not least, it will be a 2d side-scroller with plenty of ropes
 and vines to climb on, stone staircases to ascend and descend, ledges
 to jump up and grab, etc. So in short many of the things you have come
 to know about MOTA will still be there with a slightly different story
 and setting.
 
 One of the major changes I can see here is while the Tomb Hunter games
 like Temple of Life will feature a female character, Angela Carter,
 we're thinking of using a male character for Mysteries of the
 Ancients. As you might expect he'll be the typical Indiana Jones type
 character who is a historian, archeologist, and adventurer.  Although,
 we don't want to copy the Indiana Jones character too closely given
 Lucas is a fanatic about copyrights,  but we don't believe being able
 to find Indiana Jones leather bull whip somewhere in the game is
 outright steeling George Lucas's copyrights. In addition to the
 classic bull whip we've been thinking of adding some Spanish weapons
 and armor to the game since we'd imagine that swords, daggers, knives,
 shields, spears, and body armor could possibly be left behind in
 various ruins. Plus all of the native Americans that lived in Central
 and South America made tools and weapons out of bone and stone. Those
 would be easier to find given that iron weapons will rust but stone
 weapons are practically impervious to decay as long as they aren't
 exposed to the weather.
 
 That leaves us with one more issue we haven't decided upon, but is
 open to discussion. That is the sf element of the game. In Montezuma's
 Revenge, for example, it was sort of a combo of ancient weapons and
 magic with some decidedly technological traps like electric walls,
 vanishing platforms, and things like that. It was a bit strange having
 torches, swords, rolling boulders, existing side by side with
 technological traps that have no explanation for their existence.
 We're thinking of being decidedly low tech for this game as we're not
 at all sure that such things should exist in an ancient ruins unless
 there is a realistic explanation for their existence the way Lucas did
 in Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
 
 Anyway, we're looking forward to your thoughts. Is this something you
 would consider a reasonable compromise for Montezuma's Revenge?

[Audyssey] swamp questions

2012-02-05 Thread mike maslo
Hi list:
I have a question or two please with regards to swamp.

1. If we get something or find something and we get killed, is it right that
we lose the stuff we were carrying?

2. if we make it to the safe zone, do we always keep it then or what should
we do with it?

3. if we quit and then get killed do we lose it?

4. I tried to do a quest. I was told to find a charcoal filter, but when I
went to the pet store,, I went to the fish supply area but I heard nothing.

Can someone please explain on how to do a quest? Am I supposed to hear
something or how do I do it? 

Do I bring it back then to the safe zone when if I ever find it? 

Is there a certain place I bring it?

Thanks so much for all the answers.

On Feb 1, 2012, at 3:38 AM, Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com wrote:

 Hi everyone,
 
 I've got a real quick question for you wrestling fans. As many of you
 might remember I've been working on a turn based wrestling game
 similar to the old Piledriver game for Dos accept my version uses a
 more up to date database of superstars from the WWE, including both
 male and female performers, as well as some sounds and music. Plus it
 is cross-platform and runs on both Windows and Linux operating
 systems. Which brings me to my question.
 
 As I am currently working on adding entrance theme music etc to the
 game right now it is sometimes hard to decide on which entrance theme
 music to use as the performers tend to frequently change their
 entrance music on a regular basis. In most cases I'll simply use the
 most current music if that particular performer is still signed to the
 WWE. The problem is that there are a number of performers who have
 quit the WWE and have signed with another promotion like TNA or Ring
 of Honor.
 
 For example, Mickie James was one of the most popular divas during her
 run in the WWE and during her Diva's title reign. However, in 2010 she
 quit the WWE and has been wrestling for TNA for the last couple of
 years. I have something of a choice to make in a case like that.
 Should I use the most current entrance music from the WWE, or should I
 grab the entrance music from TNA to essentially bring the entrance
 music completely up to date?
 
 Which brings up another but interesting question. If you think I
 should use the TNA entrance music should I then gear this game towards
 a crossover game not focusing specifically on WWE, TNA, etc or Ring of
 Honor but make this sort of an all star wrestling game with a huge
 roster of WWE, Ring of Honor, and TNA performers?
 
 If we do decide on a crossover type game I could in theory add a
 little note beside each wrestler that this performer is currently
 signed to Raw, Smackdown, TNA, etc. What do you think?

Re: [Audyssey] Swamp testing server, version 3

Where do I get this test song pack from

Sent from my iPhone

On Jan 31, 2012, at 11:46 AM, Jeremy Kaldobsky jer...@kaldobsky.com wrote:

 Hey guys, It's been a few days since I've been around.  I had a really rough 
 weekend and spent Saturday night until Monday night sicker than I have been 
 in many years.  Apparently I picked up some sort of virus that had me really 
 messed up.  I'm not better yet but I am feeling about a million times better 
 than I was, haha!  The delay slowed down me releasing the next testing 
 version, so here it is!  Just as before, you will need to have Kai's testing 
 sound pack although I'm sure most of you already have it if you were playing 
 on the testing server before.
 
 www.kaldobsky.com/audiogames/Swamptest3.zip
 
 It still has a way to go but I've made some changes and tried to fix a few 
 things.  The blank missions shouldn't show up now but it hasn't really been 
 tested.  The rewards for the missions has been scaled differently and now 
 they should properly give the amounts they say they will.  Some of the stat 
 points were changed.  Chain saw mastery is different and both of the sniper 
 skills were changed.  I didn't get around to changing the vulcan minigun's 
 skills yet but I plan to.
 
 The missions are still pretty much the same, but I have adjusted a few 
 things.  For starters I think I may have fixed the issue of supply crates not 
 always showing up.  It was super rate to begin with, but I think it's solved. 
  The warehouse has a few more windows placed around the outside walls.  To 
 keep things more interesting, the order that things break has now been 
 randomized to some extent.  It's not truly random but by adding in variation 
 it will prevent things from being to easy to predict.
 
 Mini missions, or quests, have been added finally.  They work in both maps 
 although the first map has far more available.  From the safe zone you can 
 spend 25 reputation to accept a quest and the reward is 250 reputation when 
 you return and donate the item.  All mini mission items will be found inside 
 of a building but you won't know exactly where.  The panic and looting that 
 took place when the zombies first arrived has left every building a complete 
 mess, so you will need to look around.  Also, an item you are asked to find 
 might be something that 2 or 3 places would sell.  When this happens, you 
 won't know which of the businesses it has been hidden in and you may have to 
 check them all before you finally find it.  If you can't find your item or 
 really don't like the one you've been asked to find, you can just pay 25 more 
 reputation to get a new quest.  Leaving the game will not save your mini 
 mission or any quest items you're carrying, so make sure
 you donate them first.  Also, changing maps will cause you to lose your 
 current mini mission.
 
 Have fun and hopefully there aren't a ton of bugs, haha!

Re: [Audyssey] Developer needs help making game accessible for the blind!

 Hey, All.
 The developer of Oubliette needs help with a few things that would make the 
 game more accessible for the blind!  Down below is the email that he had sent 
 me to get more information about different content in the game to work with 
 voice over.
 So if you have any thoughts on how to help him please email him with your 
 thoughts at jg...@gabysoft.com
 Now here is the message.
 
 The battle is real time but controlled by the speed settings. At the 'Normal' 
 setting (Slider at 50%), the monsters will attack once every 2 seconds. At 
 the slowest speed they will attack at one quarter that speed (once every 8 
 seconds). At the highest speed, they will attack at 4 times that speed (once 
 every half second). When you use one of your characters to attack, there is 
 also a 'cool down' period before they can attack again. This time is based on 
 the characters' dex. The 'cool down' period is also adjusted when you change 
 the game speed. So if you set the speed to the minimum, the characters' 'cool 
 down' period will be 4 times as long as it is at the normal setting.
 
 However if you tap on a monster (double tap in your case) it will bring up a 
 screen that shows the monster's information and the game will pause at that 
 point. So if you want to think about your next move, double tap on the 
 monster and that will pause the game.
 
 When the battle starts, there is a screen that is displayed which simply 
 informs them that they are about to battle. In version 2.0 there are actually 
 2 possible screens here, one for normal battles and one for secret rooms. The 
 title of the screen will tell you which is which. The battle will not begin 
 until your first character takes some action. At this point you can double 
 tap on the monsters to see what they can do and adjust the game speed 
 depending on what you are facing. There is really nothing else that the user 
 sees before the battle begins.
 
 While the battle is running, there are messages that are displayed in the 
 message box, but for the most part you can probably ignore these. The 
 monsters will glow when they attack and I am not sure how to represent this. 
 I can have it display a message when the monster attacks, but you would have 
 to tap down in the message box to hear it. It would be nice if there were a 
 way to have the Voice Over speak some text on command, but I have not found 
 it yet. The player list on the right has a 'cool down' timer graphic to show 
 when each character can make their next action. Also the characters' hit 
 points are shown in red if the character is damaged, and if he is in duress 
 (e.g. paralyzed, stunned, dead, etc.) a graphic is displayed indicating that 
 fact. I am not sure how to represent these to the blind. Looking at the Voice 
 Over documentation it appears that I can set my own text for what is said 
 when you touch a particular item and I am going to look into possibly adding 
 some additional spoken information when you touch one of your players.
 
 The maze on each level is not random, so once you learn where everything is 
 on a given level, it will not change. There is no 'end' to a given level, 
 each time you enter a level it is repopulated with monsters and treasures. 
 Each level has stairs to other levels (sometimes multiple stairs). Some, but 
 not all of the stairs are shown on the maps. I am really not sure how to 
 represent the maps for the blind, but I will give it some more thought. 
 Perhaps instead of a map at all I can display a list of the features (i.e. 
 stairs, pits and chutes). Since the maps generally do not include the 
 location of all the features I am not exactly sure what to show. I wouldn't 
 mind giving all of that information to actual blind players, but I would 
 rather it not be available to players who can see.
 
 I am thinking that it might be very useful to have a help page which explains 
 some of these things that will be displayed the first time the user turns on 
 the 'Voice Over Support'. If you could put together a list of things that 
 would be useful to blind players that I could include on this page, that 
 would be most helpful.

 Hi Phil,
 
 That's probably true. Although, I think I have an idea how to resolve
 this sticky situation. What I could do is write a one level demo, a
 concept demo like Philip Bennefall did with Perilous Hearts, and see
 how people do with it. If I get a lot of feedback this game is too
 hard, its too complicated, I can't figure it out, whatever then we can
 revise it by creating a 2d side-scroller if need be.
 
 However, I think one of the problems is just fear of the unknown.
 People doubt what they can do or what is possible until they try it. I
 know before Che released Rail Racer there was all kinds of erroneous
 assumptions about the mouse that were based on nothing more than lack
 of personal experience. I can't use the mouse I'm blind. The mouse is
 too hard to use.  I tried using the mouse with application x and
 couldn't get it to work.
 
 All of those assumptions were proven false. The mouse is a
 programmable device and it will do whatever the application tells it
 to do, and Rail Racer proved that it is and can be just as accessible
 as a keyboard if supported properly. However, what we found out after
 Rail Racer was released is most blind gamers didn't even know how to
 properly hold and move the mouse let alone use it in a game. So there
 was an educational curve involved in getting it accepted by a large
 number of VI gamers, but it did happen. Now, days games like Rail
 Racer, Swamp, etc are popular because they go beyond just the keyboard
 approach to input and those users are requesting more developers to
 provide mouse support as well.
 
 So what really needs to happen here is break the ice by releasing a
 fully playable demo with a full 3d environment and take it from there.
 Let's see how many of those people truly have actual difficulty with
 it and how many are willing to take the bull by the horns and try
 something a bit different.
 
 Cheers!

 Hi Mike and Thomas,
 Although I would enjoy a 3d version of MOTA, I think a side scroller version
 has advantages.
 Usually it is much easier to move around.
 Many people trying out Shades of Doom and Sarah give up because of their
 difficulty in moving around.
 They get frustrated, running into wals and don't know which way to go.
 While some people have good memories of where they are and can picture the
 whole level in their minds, many people do not have this ability.
 For example when I worked with Carl on Maze Haze for DOS we both created
 five mazes.
 I could easily get around mine as I remembered exactly how to get from the
 start to the finish.
 But when I tried Carl's, I was completely lost.
 I had to brail out maps of his mazes in order to figure how to solve them.
 Carl could not complete my mazes until he plotted them on a pizza box,
 making walls out of push pins, which took him many hours.
 But some of our customers could do the mazes in minutes.
 It is a skill like having perfect pitch.
 In our DOS bowling game we used a C note to designate the point where you
 should hit the space bar to throw the ball.
 Some people with perfect pitch could anticipate when the C note was coming
 next and consistently got perfect bowling scores.
 So in conclusion, there are probably more people who would like a side
 scroller than their are those who would like a 3d game.
 Phil

 I think it'll be a shame if you were to abandon the side scroller. not 
 because I hate FPS games, in fact I'll be the first to download an FPS MOTA 
 whenever it's available, but due to the fact you've been working on this game 
 engine for 3 years, and now you'll be throwing all that work away because the 
 project doesn't interest you. Keep in mind that with this engine already 
 finished, you could probably release this game in a couple of months. On the 
 other hand, you'll need to work on modifying your engine to support 3d 
 movement, and then start work on the game. it'll take so much longer.

 Hi Dark,
 
 Well, let me explain what my problem here is. If you are facing north
 I want the tiles to line up in front of you from left to right. You
 might have to take one step right and one step forward to active the
 first switch, step back once, step left twice, and one step forward to
 activate the second switch on the left, and one step right to activate
 the middle switch. Then, one step forward to push the door open. That
 definitely requires 3d movement as you can't move left, right,
 forward, and backward all in a 2d environment.
 
 
 Yeah, I know i could modify the puzzle as you suggested by having you
 jump forward and back so many tiles as Prince of persia, Megaman,
 whatever but I really don't want to do it that way.
 
 I guess what it all really boils down to in the end is personal
 preference or tastes. I for one am sick and tired of 2d
 side-scrollers.  I just spend three years developing a game engine
 playing the same old side-scroller over and over and over again day in
 and day out until the engine is finished. Now, that the engine is
 ready for production I can't stand side-scrollers personally. Testing
 MOTA over and over again just burned me out on 2d games, and you can
 hardly blame me for wanting to develop something different which
 brings us back to the issue I mentioned in my original post.
 
 I really want to honor my customers by giving them the best game
 possible for their money. However, if the community wants a
 side-scroller, something I'm personally not interested in creating,
 I'm not going to put my heart into creating it.If I'm not interested
 in the final product. Its going to end up being very shallow, not as
 feature filled as it could be, and of course I'll end up having to
 support the game with upgrades, patches, etc which I'm not really
 interested in doing. Its hardly fair to give everyone a side-scroller
 and turn around the day after they buy it and tell them that is the
 final version and I'm no longer going to support that game. That is a
 crummy deal. So of course whatever I make it is for the long hall and
 I better be willing to support and maintain it for a while.
 
 Bottom line, if I have to I'll create the side-scroller to settle
 accounts, but don't think its going to be my best work. I won't spend
 that much time or effort on a project that doesn't interest me. The
 story, sounds, music, might be great but if I can't create it my way,
 the way I want to, then I don't have any personal interest in it. Its
 just been reduced to a meaningless job and I don't get as much
 pleasure out of creating it as I might.
 
 Cheers!

 Hi,
 
 Yeah, but here is the deal. Mysteries of the ancients has been in the
 works since 2008 as I was using it to build and test the game engine.
 At this point I just want to get done with the game, release it, and
 forget about it. At first I was willing to consider both, but after
 having spent so much time with the game I'm tired of it. I don't want
 to write it one way, and then turn around and rewrite it another.
 That's, quite frankly, just too much work. So I'll do it one way or
 the other, but not both.
 
 Which brings me to the other point you made here. You talked about
 continuity. As you know Tomb Hunter is going to be a series of games
 much like Indiana Jones or Tomb Raider is a series of
 books/movies/games.  If I want to do that it would be better to make
 them all FPS or all side-scrollers rather than start out with a
 side-scroller and switch to an FPS later. I'd prefer to just start out
 with an FPS and design the games that way since that's what I was
 creating a 3d game engine for in the first place.
 
 Finally, whenever there is a dispute or argument about something the
 answer I hear from people is write both or put in a toggle to turn
 feature x on/off. No one seems to stop and think how much longer that
 takes, or thinks about the effort involved to satisfy every single
 person's desires. That's why I'm really thinking just do it my way and
 if people don't like it then let the fur fly because I've had enough
 of the VI community wining, moaning, and groaning about this game and
 what they want or don't want.
 
 Cheers!

I truly like how you put that Thomas.

I feel same as you and feel that you shoul d create what you will take pride 
and heart in.

Technology has changed and gaming for the blind has to.

For those who don want a fps game offer a upcoming title as compensation.

I can say with all of  my heart that I have less then a interest in a side 
scroller.

Super Liam was fun a few times but once I memorized movements and grid and won 
I never looked at it again.

I respect your dilemma but since it is your project and James never finished 
his commitment, I feel you should do what your heart tells you to do.

Not only that but when you took the project on you truthfully owe nothing.

It is so frustrating to see how hard it is for blind people to move forward and 
go with new and better.

Either way I respect your decision as well as a promise that if it was a fps 
which came out I would be the first buyer.

 interested in doing. Its hardly fair to give everyone a side-scroller
 and turn around the day after they buy it and tell them that is the
 final version and I'm no longer going to support that game. That is a
 crummy deal. So of course whatever I make it is for the long hall and
 I better be willing to support and maintain it for a while.
 
 Bottom line, if I have to I'll create the side-scroller to settle
 accounts, but don't think its going to be my best work. I won't spend
 that much time or effort on a project that doesn't interest me. The
 story, sounds, music, might be great but if I can't create it my way,
 the way I want to, then I don't have any personal interest in it. Its
 just been reduced to a meaningless job and I don't get as much
 pleasure out of creating it as I might.
 
 Cheers!

 mega man 7 and 8 have puzles like this, as in fact does the game robocod and
 Alex kid way back on the master system had this as it's final puzle, where
 you were given the sequence throughout the game. Heck prince of persia was

 Megamanbass even added another element, by having the tyles light up simon

 There have been some pretty complex 2D puzles actually, for instance Mega
 man x 6 has one stage where there are firing lasers and mirror reflectors
 that you can move around by attacking them.
 
 You need to angle each mirror to reflect the laser to unlock the door, or
 even activate another laser.
 
 to my knolidge, the only sorts of puzles you would absolutely not be able to

 Hi tom.
 
 while I completely understand why you might well be sick of side scrollers 
 (indeed having worked on the same phd thesis for five years I can very much! 
 understand), I will say I'd think it a shame if you completely rewrote and 
 changed the project around now.
 
 I don't have anything against 3D and would like to see a 3D tomb hunter game 
 eventually myself, however the Mota betas have! actually been good, sinse 
 they've done things that audio side scrollers haven't before.
 
 Puzles, true 2D exploration, it's deffinately there, and while I know 
 perilous hearts is going somewhere in the same direction with the 2D, in many 
 ways it's a different game,  for instance i doubt there will be any mazes 
 in that game let alone swimming or torch usage.
 
 Even if you just didn't change a thing, created a few more levels with 
 different layout along the lines of the current beta's, the game would be 
 more than passable, and myself I have confidence in your abilities that more 
 would be added,  I remember all the ideas you were discussing for the 
 castlevania type side scroller last halloween for example.
 
 So, while I wouldn't mind a 3D game, to me it would lose a lot of the ground 
 mota has already gained, and the chance to do some unique stuff in audio.
 
 No, you can't have a 3D puzle, but there hasn't yet been a tyles puzle in an 
 audio game. nor timed switch door events, pressure pads to be jumped or even 
 just exploration of a vertical maze in 2D.
 
 as I said if you really just want to create a 3D game and forget side 
 scrollers,  well I'll look forward to playing it, but I stil think we'd 
 miss out on something in the process, not the least seeing the engine you've 
 worked so hard on in action in a propper game.

 Yes, an fps game would be equally worth paying for if it were a good game, 
 however where as we currently have several good fps's,  and one in rapid

 Hi everyone,
 
 As of this morning I have started work on a game for Halloween. I'm
 thinking of something loosely based on the popular Castlevania series
 by Nintendo. As there isn't anything like this for the VI audio games
 community I felt it would be a nice break from MOTA, and something we
 can all enjoy for the Halloween season. Since the G3D engine is now at
 1.0 stable it shouldn't take too long to produce a basic game within a
 couple of weeks. The only question I have for you guys is format.
 
 Now, I am well aware the original Castlevania series were all
 side-scrollers. I am tempted to do that given that it would fit the
 genre, but I'm also eager to sink my teeth into a full 3d environment.
 After all, the G3D engine was specifically designed for 3d FPS style
 game play. So here is the question.
 
 Would you guys and girls prefer a full 3d FPS type game, or would you
 like a 2d side-scroller more or less based on Castlevania?
 
 Thanks.

Hi Dark,

Yeah, that was in fact a bit of luck on my part. I thought when I went for
the springboard moonsault that Beth Phoenix would move out of the way and
Kelly Kelly would just splash into the matt, serious screw up there, or that
I'd knock Beth down, but not be able to capatalize on the move. As it
happened Beth was stunned long enough to go for a victory roll and pin her
to the mat for a full three count.

Now, one thing I'd like to do here is work on the general AI system to play
to an opponent's strengths. That is if a wrestler is good in a skill set to
tend to favor those moves over other less skilled moves.

For instance, Beth Phoenix is a strong female wrestler and tends to favor
powerhouse moves such as powerbombs, various bodyslams, and suplexes. In
fact, her finisher is the Glam Slam which is basically just a press slam.

Now, someone like Kelly Kelly is small and light. She's almost 50 pounds
lighter than Beth Phoenix, and she usually does well with hit and runn
attacks such as small punches, spin kicks, missile dropkicks, etc. Also her
small size and stature makes her more naturally built for arial type moves
like flying crossbody attacks, springboard moonsaults, etc. You have to play
to a performers strengths if you want to win a match.

Cheers!

 Subject: [Audyssey] WWE Superslam


 Hi everyone,

 As many of you might remember for the last couple of months or so 
 I've been working on a text-based wrestling game named WWE: 
 Superslam. Its similar to the old Dos Piledriver game in concept, but 
 I hope to improve upon that design as I go along.

 Anyway, Tonight I was testing the game and had a very cool wrestling 
 match I'd like to share with you all. It was a WWE Diva's match 
 between Kelly Kelly and Beth Phoenix. It was based on their title 
 match at Summer Slam, but actually better as I was playing it via the 
 game.

 The game started out with me, playing as Kelly Kelly, and I thought 
 I'd try and soften Beth Phoenix up with some punches, kicks, and take 
 her down to the matt with some takedown moves like leg sweeps or an 
 arm drag. Unfortunately, for me Beth Phoenix managed to get the upper 
 hand and started handing Kelly Kelly's butt to her. Beth drove a knee 
 lift into Kelly's face, and then dropped her to the mat with a 
 spinning powerbomb. From there she basically tossed Kelly Kelly 
 around the ring like a rag doll with a series of slams, suplexes, and 
 threw in a few extra kicks and punches here and there for good measure.

 Realising I'm like getting nowhere real quick I decided to take a 
 page out of Eve Torres's playbook and go for some high risk arial 
 moves. As soon as Kelly manages to escape the beating Beth is giving 
 her I climb up onto the second rope, and perform a springboard 
 moonsault. Kelly Kelly moonsault's off the second rope and hits Beth 
 Phoenix like a cruise missile and Beth crashes to the matt. I then 
 catch Beth Phoenix in Kelly Kelly's classic victory roll, and pin her 
 for the three count. That's how the Glamazon crashed and burned. What 
 do you think about that match, eh?

 Cheers!

Hi Mike,

Don't worry. If there is a job to do the peasants will perform it
automatically. For instance if your lumberjack cuts down a tree in the
forest the peasants will carry it to the storehouse or sawmill. If the
peasants are just standing around that means there aren't any tasks
available for them to perform yet.

 I am trying to make my store room and I switch some of the people to 
 be peasants etc. My question is how do I make them actually do 
 something. Every time I check they are just standing around.

 Should I at first make all of them peasants or how should I do that?

[Audyssey] Follow up on cast away

2011-08-07 Thread mike maslo
Hi everyone:

I started my game and this is what I did. Please if I did something wrong
let me know.

I started with building the store room. After I did that I assigned 6 of my
members to be a peasant 6 lumber jacks. I sat here and waited for something
to happen.

Every time I check all of them are standing around doing nothing. Is this
normal or am I doing something wrong? It keeps saying that I need all of
these materials but no one is doing anything.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Mike,

Did you unpause the game? When the game starts it is paused. You have to
press the spacebar to actually start/unpause the game. Otherwise your people
will stand around doing nothing, because the game hasn't officially started
yet.

As for lumberjacks you don't want six lumnberjacks. That is way, way, way
too many people asigned to a single task. You need perhaps only one
lumberjack at most and as the game progresses you will want to give your
people other jobs like cook, farmer, fisherman, hunter, etc.
Basically, balance it out a bit. The only job you need a lot of people for
is peasant as they are the people responcible for carrying and stocking
supplies while your skilled workers cook, farm, build, or make stuff.

Hi Mike,

Yes. If you want your people to eat you have to have at least one cook in
your party. As your food supplies get low you will need probably at least
one hunter to hunt for wild game, one or two fisherman to bring in fish, and
you'll want to build a vegetable farm and farmer to get started with the
basics. As your community grows you will need a wheat farm, baker, mill, and
all the jobs associated with making and baking bread. Plus making wine will
become helpful as well. Castaways is a strategy game, and you are going to
have to plan and build your community in such a way that everything gets
done without your people starving to death, getting sick from illness, or
being rampaged by goblin hords.

Cheers!

 On a somewhat related topic, I long ago built up a big piece of code 
 that generates star systems and planets, but never did anything with 
 it.  I've always had this idea that it would be really cool to 
 integrate that code into a game and let people explore with it, but 
 it never seemed an appropriate thing to add to a fantasy mud.  I

 it?
 thanks!

 Where can one find that soundpack,  and what client is it for?
 Are there any available for MT?
 thanks,

 On a somewhat related topic, I long ago built up a big piece of code
 that generates star systems and planets, but never did anything with
 it.  I've always had this idea that it would be really cool to
 integrate that code into a game and let people explore with it, but it
 never seemed an appropriate thing to add to a fantasy mud.  I should
 take another look at that code one of these days.

2011-06-23 Thread mike maslo
I have a sound pack which is quite good. I plus star conquest and love it. I
also agree we need more fringe people. I am a fringe pilot and want more to
join us.

We are a much friendlier and less attitude driven alliance.

I do not pay attention to the reviews of any mud. I try it myself and if I
do not like it then I stop playing. This is the only mud that has ever
caught my eye and kept me here.

Are you talking about the new SC or SC classic? Last I checked, the new SC
didn't have much of a playerbase, and the reviews I'd heard about it weren't
good. However, if it is the new SC you speak of, and there is a soundpack
available, I'll give it a look. Are you speaking of the new SC, and where
can one go to find a soundpack for it?
thanks!
best,
Nick

star conquest was by far the best space mud I ever played, and I 
 played it hard for quite a while.
They have a mining game built into the main system for earning 
 credits, that is in itself a real blast to play, the only command and 
 conquer style game i've ever seen in a mud.
If you join up, I highly recommend you go with The Fringe for your 
 alliance, last time I was there, far less know it all jerks in the 
 Fringe than the other alliances, and a much tighter community overall.
I would also recommend you check out VIPMud for your client. Its 
 designed with accessibility in mind, and there are a lot of custom 
 scripts, sound effects etc. for it that really enhance the experience.
I don't have direct info to the mud on this system but google will 
 turn it up.
Good luck,
   Che

 Hello,
 I'm new to MUDS, but want to expand my game horizons. I'm wondering 
 if anyone can recommend any good Strategy MUDS or space combat MUDS?

 I'm going to use Mush Client and it's accessible scripts.

 Thanks.
 Dave.
