Re: [Audyssey] Raceway answers was USA Raceway trailer.
Hi Gary, Yeah, I think Raceway is a game that can be updated from time to time with add ons. New tracks, network play, whatever. However, at the moment I need to stay focussed on how 1 will look before I look at what 2 will be like. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Raceway answers was USA Raceway trailer.
We are behind you Tom. Raceway shuld be a game for add on and you have made some good point for it. Raceway shuould get its chance to be the best it can be and bettr then other racing games. IN the end who knows Raceway and the add ons could be your best seller. The possible of a racing Simwith mullti players The game could even get to a point to having subscribers like All in Play. Yeah boy, instead of throwing down the chips we could be throwing down the hammer. Instead of Texas Hold'em we have Friday NIght Races to gain to the main event on Sunday. Whoops, sorry had a day dream there. I know your stand on net play, but one can still dream. Smiles. Even this dream to happen some time in the distance future, I am pulling for Raceway to to be as much as it can be and be a game to rival other great accessible games. Look, games that folks want to play and play againt others is a money machine. Is there no wonder why All in Play is so quiet on there up coming games. Any more I just play in the tourneys with my subscription. I like to support AIP with the few dollars a month and I would be happy to do the same if Raceway ended up having a server web site for net play. I have changed my position on the matter of wining about gettng my two free copies of North's games. For me now those investments were just bad investments and I will be hapy to support Tom Ward. I join the list long time agon for just Raceway, and for me now, Raceway is Tom's USA game. We lose money in the Markets and I feeling that is like what happen with North's company. Just a bad investment to improving the Accessible gaming World. I can not count the number of new accessible games that came out during the Raceway development since its shading start, not enough digits on my toes can help. So, I hope this encourages you to keep pushing on Tom and for those others hope you will feel the way I do and help Tom with the cost burden and supprt his cause. Tom took a chance and believed in North's games to improve the accessible game community. I have no ties with Tom Ward, but do see from his emails that he wants to do right for the community. Being hoest in his email for not wanting to work hard on North games is reasonable. Tom has done a great job responding to all emails for USA Games. Lastly, I hope that those who got tooken by North will support Tom's efforts and let the past go and move head. Otherwiseours dreams could be just that, dreams.

Re: [Audyssey] Raceway answers was USA Raceway trailer.
Ok, right, for myself I brought up MIDI as a format type only. For a player that could play music that one could change on the fly was the idea I was looking for. Besides have a certain type of format then droping ones own tunes the player director could case problem. I do like the idea of a player during the times when I may not be in the hunt but just driving to gain my points at the end of the race. Then it would sound like I was on a sunday afternoon drive.

Re: [Audyssey] Raceway answers was USA Raceway trailer.
Only hundreds of changes?? As I see it, I've waited for a long time for this game to co me out, and waiting will not kill me, or even bother me. Because of the very nature of game development, I know it will take time, and I hope that most people realize that a trailer for a game never means that the game is nearing completion. Making a comparison between any game under development and a finished product is totally unrealistic. Suggestions can be made as to features you like in a finished game being incorporated into the game in progress to boost sales and playability, though, and are probably welcomed by the developer who can possibly check out the finished game and see how the suggested features work. -- If guns cause crime, then pencils cause misspelled words. - Original Message - From: "Thomas Ward" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Sunday, November 04, 2007 11:11 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Raceway answers was USA Raceway trailer. > Hi Claudio, > > Quote > If i accelerate in need for speed the sound of the car will get higher > and higher > like "rail racer." > That's not so in your game. > End quote > > As I mentioned in an earlier post on this very same subject this will be > changing once I go to work on Raceway full time.

[Audyssey] Raceway answers was USA Raceway trailer.
Hi everyone, In order to save posting 100 different emails individually here is my answers for as many emails as I can in this message. Quote The Backgroundmusik is bad I think. End quote The music you hear in the current trailer won't be the music in the final version. Probably not even in the first playable version. I have already started searching for new music. I haven't decided on what kind of music I will use, but it probably will be something with allot of rock guitar, high energy, and really hard rock sounding. Quote the Sound of the Car is not what I expected from your describtion on the net.. I hope you can find better carsound and better background musik. End quote Well, the car sounds I have are professionally made sounds for Nascar games produced by a reputable sound designer company. I am not sure I can do any better than these, but Iwill look. Mind telling me what you found wrong with the ones I have? Quote Yeah, I think there should be some lycenced music. I remember that music you had in the trailer before this one and it was nice. End quote I still have it on my backup drive somewhere. I believe it was one of Robert nearies pieces. He plays really hard rocking metal, and if you liked it I know where to get lots more of his heavy rock pieces. His music tends to be very energetic with lots of wripping guitar. Quote If I could make a suggestion, I feel it might not hurt to allow players the option to put their own midis in along with the existing ones in order for a wider selection. Would something like that be too difficult to code? If not End quote Well, actually Raceway isn't playing the midi files directly. I converted the midi file to wav, dropped it in the sound directory, and it played it back in the trailer. However, based on end user input so far I am not certain any kind of midi is advisable no matter how well I can play them or not. I think people are looking for a real rock type sound rather than hearing midi sequenced versions of the songs they know and love. Quote After thinking about my phrasing, I mistyped. Sort of hard to describe, though. It doesn't have the rock sound I'm used to, no guitars, no lyrics, and no drums. It's, I guess, different. End quote I'm not sure what you mean by no drumbs, but there is certainly drumbs in the music I created for the trailer. In any case point well taken, and I will look for something more to the general opinion expressed on list for something more rocking and upbeat. Quote As far as the echo, I like how Jim Kitchen's racing game indicates a turn. Maybe you could do it that way, but eliminate the noise heard before the turn. Maybe you could even eliminate the radio announcement that a turn is coming up on higher skill levels if there are going to be difficulty levels. End quote Well, as is stated on the web site there is only one difficulty level. So if you want the turn indicators disabled they will have to be disabled in the options menu.
