Re: [Audyssey] Need A Walkthrough for Future Boy

Hi Jay,

Yeah, wasn't that cool back in the dos days when if the programmer did it right 
all text on the screen would be read by the screen reader.  I miss being able 
to program like that.  But, so, that is why I now use the sapi5 text to speech 
engine.  Just went from putting text on the screen to sending it to the sapi5 
speech engine.  Of course one wants to make sure to program in the review mode 
stuff.

Hi Jay,
  Thanks for the link to the walkthrough. It turns out there's a location I 
haven't explored yet. Oh well, I'll get it figured out over the holidays.


Yours Sincerely,

Hi Tom,
  I don't know what site you're talking about, but yes, the game isn't 
available to download or purchase directly from the Future Boy website. I 
ended up writing to the General Coffee Film Productions Company, who produce 
the game along with the Hugo text adventure engine (their website is 
www.generalcoffee.com/) to inquire about the game. They gave me an email 
address to purchase the game using PayPal, then emailed me some download 
instructions. If you want the demo version of the game, you can get it at 
the Interactive Fiction Archive, www.ifarchive.org/, in the games/hugo 
folder.

  Hope this helps.

hmmph interesting.
I was able to buy it through their cafepress system.
Here is the issue.
its not needed but I'd create an account first at www.cafepress.com
Reason being I tried to order first and got a message that my credit card was 
not able to be processed 2 days after it supposedly went through.
The bank did charge me for the stuff even though I had not processed anything.
An email to gc got me that it hadn't.
I created the account manually, logged in to it and then things went to plan.
weird.

[Audyssey] Need A Walkthrough for Future Boy

2009-12-23 Thread Kelly Sapergia

Hi,
  I purchased the text adventure game Future Boy last week, and so far am 
enjoying it. However, I think I'm in an unwinnable position, and may need to 
restart. Does anyone have, or know where I can find, a walkthrough for this 
game? I've tried looking on the IF Archive in their Solutions folder, but 
there's nothing there.

  Thanks for your help.

Re: [Audyssey] Need A Walkthrough for Future Boy

2009-12-23 Thread Jay Pellis

Hi Kelly
Here you go, it's a pdf guide but still pretty readable.  Future boy is 
excellent, I purchased it back in 2004 and finished it in about 6 hours.  It 
has an excellent built in hint system.  I don't remember where it is but 
there is a menu in the game where you can turn off the graphics and have 
text only but you still have to use the jaws or other screen reader review 
cursor to read the text.  There is also a setting to allow the things you 
can ask characters about to appear as numbers so you can press the number of 
the question you want and press enter.
The music, sound and voice acting really adds to the atmosphere.  Just wish 
there was a way for a screen reader to auto read the text responses after 
pressing enter.  I miss those old dos screen readers that just worked.  I 
think unfortunately if you are using jaws, the newer versions work worse 
with reading the future boy options menus than whatever version was out in 
2004.

Have fun
Jay

Re: [Audyssey] Need A Walkthrough for Future Boy

2009-12-23 Thread Jacob Kruger

Is it a standalone interactive fiction game?

If not, what client software do you make use of?

Winfrotz TTS still doesn't want to work on my XP machine since I reloaded 
it, and never really found any other IF client software that worked too well 
otherwise.


Stay well
