Re: [Audyssey] Wrestling Game Updates/Decisions
Hi, No, you don't. As I said any defensive actions will be automatic. Here is an example. Let's assume you are playing a match of Eve Torres vs Brie Bella. If Brie Bellla tries a missile dropkick there will be an internal calculation/roll of stats to determine if she successfully performed the move or not. If not it might say something like, Eve deftly steps aside and Brie Bella, finding nobody home, hits the mat hard. Now, it looks like Eve is back in control of this match. Behind the scenes, so to speak, all that is happening is a stat check to see if a move succeeds or fails. If it succeeds Brie Bella pulls off a stunning dropkick to Eve Torres. If it fails it will print some message of a ddefensive play on your part like deftly stepping out of the way, breaking loose of a hold, kicking out of apin, whatever. P.S. I'm glad Eve kicked Nikki Bella's butt last Monday night on raw. Let's see if she gets her title back from Brie Bella at Extreme Rules. Cheers!

Hi Thomas, Will there be any defence techniques in the game? - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Wednesday, April 20, 2011 4:40 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Wrestling Game Updates/Decisions Hi Dark, I was pretty much thinking of determining that based on number of wins and losses. If you are wrestling for the raw brand and want a title shot at the WWE championship you are going to have to wrestle everybody else on Raw until you are the top contender for the Miz's title. Same goes for Smackdown. If wrestling for Smackdown you'll have to wrestle everyone else on Smackdown so that you can be the top contender for the world championship. Diva's of course work a bit different since the title holder can either be from the Raw or Smackdown brand. So it doesn't really matter which brand you wrestle for in that case because the Diva's championship passes to and from Raw and Smackdown all the time. Legends like diva's aren't asigned to any brand or promotion and choose any title shot they want. Does that make sense? Of course, there is a problem with this. If you want to play the Miz, and he is the default WWE champion, then your position would be as defender of the title rather than someone trying to wrestle for a title shot. So that would offset the wins/losses rules somewhat. I'm not sure how to handle that issue. Perhaps vacate all titles and wrestle for them via tournaments? I guess I'll find out soon as last week on Smackdown Edge announced he had to retire do to medical reasons. Since he was the current world heavy-weight champion that title is now open and vacated for anyone to take. I imagine they'll have some sort of tournament match in the next ppv for the top contenders to battle it out for that title. Cheers! On 4/19/11, dark d...@xgam.org wrote: Fair enough Tom.

Hi Muhammed, Well, yes and no. If you mean can you select it from a menu/list no. However, there will be times were the oponent will try a move and your wrestler will automatically attempt a defensive move. The higher value will be the one that wins out.

Re: [Audyssey] Wrestling Game Updates/Decisions
Prior commitments? Well you should've thought of that before having Phil say what date you'll finish the game ;D. Obviously your not using your time efficiently. I suggest you get rid of all destractions to game developement such as family, friends, eating, all that time you spend sleeping, oh, and not to mention all that time you spend breathing, a far too wasteful hobby in my opinion. That way if you just coded you might be able to keep up to the strict deadlines necessary to satisfy your customers. Getting rid of family and friends is very easy (there are various pest control agencies available who will help with that problem), removing all that wasteful time spent sleeping is possible by a sufficient supply of coffee and clingon pain sticks. As for eating, well that's deffinately a luxury you can do without! for the breathing part, well finding a good necromancer and having yourself zombificated is always a recommended method in modern business practice, in fact you'll notice the results when dealing with many modern companies (who regularly have their employees be zombies).

Fair enough Tom. I was just wondering how your going to distinguish a bottom level wrestler from a more advanced one other than by some sort of training or level system, and also how you'll insure that your wrestler can't just go streight to the top of the wrankings in the first fight.

Re: [Audyssey] Wrestling Game Updates/Decisions
Hi Dark, I was pretty much thinking of determining that based on number of wins and losses. If you are wrestling for the raw brand and want a title shot at the WWE championship you are going to have to wrestle everybody else on Raw until you are the top contender for the Miz's title. Same goes for Smackdown. If wrestling for Smackdown you'll have to wrestle everyone else on Smackdown so that you can be the top contender for the world championship. Diva's of course work a bit different since the title holder can either be from the Raw or Smackdown brand. So it doesn't really matter which brand you wrestle for in that case because the Diva's championship passes to and from Raw and Smackdown all the time. Legends like diva's aren't asigned to any brand or promotion and choose any title shot they want. Does that make sense? Of course, there is a problem with this. If you want to play the Miz, and he is the default WWE champion, then your position would be as defender of the title rather than someone trying to wrestle for a title shot. So that would offset the wins/losses rules somewhat. I'm not sure how to handle that issue. Perhaps vacate all titles and wrestle for them via tournaments? I guess I'll find out soon as last week on Smackdown Edge announced he had to retire do to medical reasons. Since he was the current world heavy-weight champion that title is now open and vacated for anyone to take. I imagine they'll have some sort of tournament match in the next ppv for the top contenders to battle it out for that title. Cheers! On 4/19/11, dark d...@xgam.org wrote: Fair enough Tom.

[Audyssey] Wrestling Game Updates/Decisions
Hi everyone, Some of you may be happy to know I've reached some decisions regarding the wrestling game I plan to make. I've reviewed all of the messages on the subject and have carefully considered all of the suggestions, ideas, and comments put forth on the subject. As this is to be an open source project and something we will all enjoy I've decided to go ahead and implament many of your suggestions and ideas as follows. First, there was quite a bit of debate on what wrestlers should be added, weather they belong in this game, etc. I've decided that I'm going to go ahead and take the all stars type approach which would have a full roster of old favorites like Hulk Hogan, Junkyard Dog, and Andre the Giant as well as new top stars like the Miz, Rae Mystereo, Edge, and John Sena, etc. Given the fact that this is an open source project, a community project in a sense, it is only fair to include as many stars as possible and let the user, you, decide how to play the game. For example, since I'm a big fan of the older stars like Hulk Hogan I might create a card of only old wrestlers like Hulk Hogan vs King Kong Bundy, Junkyard Dog vs Randy Savage, Tito Santana vs Greg the Hammer Valentine, and so on. Someone who is more familiar with the 90's stars might want to create a card with Stone Cold Steve Auston, the Rock, Owen Hart, Sean Michaels, etc. Then, the complete fantasy gamer might want to create fantasy matches like Andre the Giant vs Big Show or formar women's champion, Rockin' Robin, vs current women's champion, Eve Torrez. In other words customize and play the game however you like. You might ask why I changed my mind. Well, as I said I saved most of the messages on this topic before we lost the thread to other subjects, and Phil's arguments were very convincing. Phil pointed out that when playing a game like Baseball most people weren't too concerned about sticking strictly to baseball cannon, and chose to play the game from a fantasy baseball point of view rather than a strictly purest point of view. It was his belief that the same sort of thing would happen to my wrestling game. People would not like it as well if I chose to use only certain wrestlers I personally liked, but left out newer wrestlers that maybe someone else liked better. He has a good point. Fact of the matter is I now think I was letting my feelings about a purest game effect my decision making process in this regard. Yes, it is possible to do both, and with a little bit more effort on my part I can let the end user pick and choose what wrestlers they wish to use. It doesn't have to be as one-sided as I think I lead everyone to believe. I simply have to let you choose the wrestlers you want to play from the main roster like Piledriver and Wrestling League Manager does and you can play the game the way you like, and I canplay the game the way I like. That's fair for everyone. Second, there was a little bit of discussion on main events. Since I am no longer sticking to any specific era, time, or place it has freed me up to think about these other issues more clearly. In short, I think I will eventually add all the Pay Per View main events such as Summer Slam, Wrestlemania, Backlash, Night of Champions, Surviver Series, Royal Rumble, etc which will be a huge improvement over Piledriver as you can only enter those events if and when you become a top tear wrestler. If your wrestlers standings are low you will have to bring up your standings before he or she enters a main event calaber match. This will make the game more like Jim's NFL were you have to win several matches before even entering the main event matches or get your first title shot. In otherwords a career/season mode for wrestlers. Third, there was quite a bit of discussion about user interface elements. Well, I've decided for the time being to start with a text-based game. One reason for that is I've been writing some text games like USA Blackjack which appears to be fairly accessible with current versions of Jaws, Window-Eyes, and NVDA. My wrestling game should be as equally accessible provided you have a decent up to date screen reader. If your screen reader has issues with the command prompt Window that's unfortunate but I've got to think of what works for most people here. Plus I've tested USA Blackjack with Speakup for Linux, and the game is fairly accessible on Linux as well. So it is my feeling that text is the most accessible option for all involved. Another big up for using text is braille support. I know this often doesn't get mentioned much, but deaf-blind gamers really don't get a lot of games that targets their special needs. Over the last few years the Audyssey list mainly talks about audio only games, I.E. games full of sound and speech, but completely leaves out a community of potential gamers who can't hear or have difficulty hearing the games. By making it text and with a screen reader like Jaws, Window-Eyes, orca, BrailleTTY, etc we can create a

Re: [Audyssey] Wrestling Game Updates/Decisions
Hi Shane, Ummm...I'd rather you not answer these kinds of questions for me. Especially, in light of the fact your answer was wrong. Please, don't give people misleading information like this. On the contrary the game will have both sounds and music. I am right now compiling a huge library of official WWE entrance music for all or most of the super stars I'll be using for 1.0 of the game. I'll probably have a couple hundred MB of just entrance music compressed as 44100 KHZ 16-bit ogg files when I'm done. In addition to the music I'm looking around for high quality wrestling sound effects. Right now I'm confining my search to basic things like croud ambience, bells, bodies hitting the matt, and things like that but how many actual sounds depends on what I turn up. So it will have sounds and music, but the user interface will be text. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Wrestling Game Updates/Decisions
Hi Michael, Yes, there most definitely is going to be sounds and music in the game. What I'm basically thinking of doing is writing something like the Smackdown vs Raw games produced by THQ, but instead of graphics and things like that the game will use text instead. Right now I'm looking at about 200 MB of music tracks in just entrance music alone. I've got quite a collection of tracks ranging from 80's entrance themes, 90's entrance themes, clear up to current themes for Edge, Cena, the Miz, CM Punk, etc. So that part is covered. As far as general sound effects I'm working on that. I have some generic sounds like croud ambience, ringing bells, punches, kicks, etc but not really enough to do the game justice yet. However, I'll be adding new sounds as I find them, and if they are of a decent quality. As for networking support I'm not planning on adding that to the game. At least not right now. That's for a few reasons. The first and main reason is I've never been much of a fan of networked games. Even though I own some games that have network ability like SoundRTS, Topspeed 2, Rail Racer, etc I've never found network play all that apealing. Games with portable off line game play are more my style. So, for me at least, there would be no personal value in adding that feature right away. Second, I travel a lot with my laptop. I like the idea of being able to bring up a game and play it anywhere at any time. This means if there is no internet connection a network game mode wouldn't benifit me at all. I'd have to have a constant wireless access point somewhere to make it worth my time in that case. Finally, there is a technical reason I'm opting out of network game play. While there are cross-platform network APIs like SDL Net it isn't something that can be used without fully initializing SDL in the process. If I'm going to do that I might as well go all the way and use SDL for sound, music, input, networking, draw a game window, etc. Besides being a lot of extra work we run into something of an accessibility issue here. As a result of SDL's cross-platform nature if you draw a window using SDL's cross-platform renderer it is going to create a window that screen readers like Jaws, Window-Eyes, NVDA, Orca, you name it won't be able to see. So even if you print text to that window the screen reader will see it as blank. It doesn't know what is there because the window isn't tied to any native API like the Windows API, GTK+, Cocoa, etc. That's fine if you are going to self-voice the game, but we aren't. So that's why no network play from a technical standpoint. Cheers! On 4/18/11, michael barnes c...@samobile.net wrote: Hey, Thomas. I am looking forward to the wrestling game when it is finish.

Re: [Audyssey] Wrestling Game Updates/Decisions
Hi Dark, Well, basically what I'm going to do is give someone the option to either create a new wrestler, I.E. one that doesn't exist in the database, or select a preexisting wrestler. I've decided to do this for two reasons. First, there are hundreds of wrestlers who have wrestled for the WWE and other promotions. It would be litterally impossible for me to add each and everyone of them to the game myself. So the best solution is to take maybe the top 50 or top 100 stars, and if your wrestler isn't listed add him or her yourself by going through the custom wrestler wizard. Second, I realise that not everyone is a huge wrestling buff. Some people will, shall we say, just see this as another game to play. Maybe they don't know who wrestler x is, and just want to make up their own male or female star. Again, best solution here is to go to the custome wrestler wizard. Finally, I realise there will always be someone out there somewhere who is just dying to add himself to the game as an actual WWE super star. So be it. They'll just have to add themselves to the custom database. As far as music goes the game will definitely feature entrance theme music for many if not all of the super stars. However, what I'll likely do for custom wrestlers is create a CustomMale.ogg and a Custom_Female.ogg file to stand in for entrance music. If you want something else to be your theme music just overwrite said files with an ogg file of your choice, and custom character creation is complete. In fact, all of the music in the game can be replaced the same way. For example, if someone wanted to play Trish Stratus but didn't like her default music, Time to Rock and Roll, you could just drop in a music file called Trish_Stratus.og and presto. The theme music is changed. However, since Time to Rock and Roll is her actual entrance theme that's naturally the default for that particular super star. As for story modes etc that's on a very distant to do list. I've got a lot more pressing things like building the game, balancing the game mechanics,etc to worry about things like storylines and who is going to kick someones butt for whatever at the moment.

Re: [Audyssey] Wrestling Game Updates/Decisions
Hi Dark, Actually, cross-platform audio really isn't a big problem. Not as big as it use to be a few years ago. Thank the developers over at Firelight Technologies for making such a great audio API called FMOD Ex. Right now FMOD Ex is the leading audio API for game developers, and best of all it runs on Mac, Windows, and Linux. There are comercial builds for Play Station, XBox, and other platforms as well but I don't want to know what it would cost to license those special versions for game consoles. Lol! Anyway, these days cross-platform audio isn't a problem. Slightly expensive, but with the right API like FMOD Ex you can get the same quality of audio output and features as XAudio2, DirectSound, OpenAL,or any of the other audio APIs out there. FMOD offers 2d stereo panning,virtual 3d positioning, and so on. It offers lots of cross-platform DSP effects such as echo, low pass filters, pitch changes, etc. If that wasn't enough to ice the cake it supports a number of file types such as wav, mp3, aif, flak, wma, and ogg out of the box. All be it some proprietary formats like wma are only available on Windows builds not Linux. Of course, since ogg is supported on Mac, Linux, and Windows that's the ideal compression to use for large sound files like music and background ambience. Basically, we've decided to begin using and licensing FMOD Ex for our future titles for this reason. Streemway is nice, but its not cross-platform. FMOD litterally has everything we need and supplies top quality audio for every platform we can see developing games for in the future. Plus saves us time writing a library that wraps OpenAL with similar features to load and decompress mp3s, ogg, wma, etc. FMOD has got it all already. No need to duplicate the work ourselves. So the next generation G3D engine as well as our free open source projects will be based on FMOD Ex for audio. Smile.

If your screen reader has issues with the command prompt Window that's unfortunate but I've got to think of what works for most people here. Plus I've tested USA Blackjack with Speakup for Linux, and the game is fairly accessible on Linux as well. So it is my feeling that text is the most accessible option for all involved. Another big up for using text is braille support. I know this often doesn't get mentioned much, but deaf-blind gamers really don't get
Re: [Audyssey] Wrestling Game Updates/Decisions
Hi Shane, Actually, the game will be more or less menu driven. You might be given a list of general catagories of moves such as arial, brawling, submission, technical, etc and then you would select the actual move you want to attempt. For instance you might select brawling and then select uppercut to deliver a nice uppercut to your aponents jaw. This was the only practical way I could include all the possibilities in terms of moves. For example, submission holds. There are a lot of them and variants. Something like the figure four leglock has three or four varients I know of. One of Bret Harts favorites, the Sharpshooter, is basically a reverse figure four leglock with a fansy name attached to it. There are a couple of others as well, but can't think of there names off hand. Plus I've played games like Piledriver, and it misses a lot of moves. I can think of several classic moves like the powerbomb or Fabulous Moolah's favorite flying snapmare that don't even get a mention. I'd like to fill in the gap and add a lot more wrestling moves like that to give your wrestler several options and plays. Although, the flying snapmare, popularized by Moolah, is more a dirty female wrestling move as it involves grabbing the other woman by the hair and then flipping her over your sholder. Ouch!

Ah, glad to know this is working, obviously not being a developer myself I'm less familiar with the business of what cross platform bits work for what and where fmod is in terms of features, I just do recall you mentioning at one point that cross platform sound support wasn't as good as native systems on windows or mac.

Not as big as it use to be a few years ago. Thank the developers over at Firelight Technologies for making such a great audio API called FMOD Ex. Right now FMOD Ex is the leading audio API for game developers, and best of all it runs on Mac, Windows, and Linux. There are comercial builds for Play Station, XBox, and other platforms as well but I don't want to know what it would cost to license those special versions for game consoles. Lol! Anyway, these days cross-platform audio isn't a problem. Slightly expensive, but with the right API like FMOD Ex you can get the same quality of audio output and features as XAudio2, DirectSound, OpenAL,or any of the other audio APIs out there. FMOD offers 2d stereo panning,virtual 3d positioning, and so on. It offers lots of cross-platform DSP effects such as echo, low pass filters, pitch changes, etc. If that wasn't enough to ice the cake it supports a number of file types such as wav, mp3, aif, flak, wma, and ogg out of the box. All be it some proprietary formats like wma are only available on Windows builds not Linux. Of course, since ogg is supported on Mac, Linux, and Windows that's the ideal compression to use for large sound files like music and background ambience. Basically, we've decided to begin using and licensing FMOD Ex for our future titles for this reason. Streemway is nice, but its not cross-platform. FMOD litterally has everything we need and supplies top quality audio for every platform we can see developing games for in the future. Plus saves us time writing a library that wraps OpenAL with similar features to load and decompress mp3s, ogg, wma, etc. FMOD has got it all already. No need to duplicate the work ourselves. So the next generation G3D engine as well as our free open source projects will be based on FMOD Ex for audio. Smile.

Hi tom. Well as someone who's only had a slight acquaintance with wrestling I like the sound of this certainly, sinse I personally liked the idea of creating my own wrestlers. Just as a suggestion though, would it be possible to have the wizard allow the possibility of tying a new entrance music track in og format to each created wrestler, thus letting the player create more of his/her own stars if desired, say by either using a numbering system for the files, or having the entrance music file named after the created wrestler instead of replacing the standard male and female entrance, rather the way topspeed car creation lets you add your own files for individual cars, no matter how many custome cars you wish to create. That way you can setup as many custom wrestlers as you want, maybe even trade them with other people, and if you wished to enact some sort of career battle, say by making your character a challenger and having his brother as the evil champion, this would be entirely possible.

Re: [Audyssey] Wrestling Game Updates/Decisions
Hi Michael, Well, given the fact that this will be an all stars type game I don't think the destinction between the Raw, Smackdown, and Tough Enough brands will matter that much here. Although, if you look up a wrestlers bio in the game it will tell you if that wrestler currently belongs to the Raw, Smackdown, or Legend brand. Legends of course proceeded the split between Smackdown, Raw, and Tough Enough brands so get their own brand or catagory here. As for a dedicated ring announcer there currently isn't one. Not unless someone is willing to come foward and offer there services for that deuty. I'm certainly not going to try and get all the actual WWE ring announcements by recording them as it would take me ages to record, edit, not to mention even find all the ones I'd need. So it would be better if someone with a good announcer type voice could do that job. As for Divas they definitely will be in the game. When you select your season mode, select a super star, you can choose if you want to play as a male or female star. Rookies are the male stars and the divas are the female stars. My roster is currently being rewritten from scratch right now so I can't say for certain who will make the final cut for 1.0, but you can be pretty sure the most famous stars from the male and female devisions will most likely be on it. Guys like Steve Auston, Hulk Hogan, Edge, Randy Savage, Jake the Snake Roberts, the Miz, etc are definitely going to make the cut. As for the divas I haven't figured out a final list but most of the current divas like Eve Torres and Michelle MicCool as well as past champions like Trish Stratus, Rockin' Robin, and Wendi Richter will definitely be there.

Re: [Audyssey] Wrestling Game Updates/Decisions
Hi Dark, Well, keep in mind here when I say you can add wrestlers at the moment my plans only allow you to add one custom wrestler. Its not like Piledriver where you can add 50 or 100 new wrestlers to the game. So in that light is it really that necessary to rename one file Custom_Wrestler.ogg to something else like The_Rock.ogg? And before anyone asks or flames me for only allowing one new wrestler to the game at the moment its because of technical reasons. I was thinking about writing this game from a single wrestlers point of view. Basically, you select a wrestler, and you will be him or her until you decide to start over. This will make it easier to write, maintain, and debug. My key concern with having an unlimited number of custom wrestlers is it will be harder to debug, it will ad lots of extra work to create, and of course they'll all have to use some bog standard A.I. since they are an unknown talent as far as I'm concerned. I won't know what moves, specials, etc you have in mind which leads to another issue. That is if we want a completely custom wrestler than that means we have to add the ability to have custom moves/specials not necessarily included in the game. Plus as I've mentioned before I'm not happy with just a handful of different generic bots. I want character specific wrestling A.I. or it isn't worth writing or playing. That's the purest in me talking again. Cheers! On 4/18/11, dark d...@xgam.org wrote: Hi tom.

Hi Dark, I don't remember saying that, but I might have said something about SDL Mixer not being as good as Windows or Mac. That's certainly true, and SDL Mixer is only a free cross-platform mixer though. That's the difference. FMOD is a comercial library that costs any thing from $150 for a shareware license to $6,000 or more for a comercial redistribution license. Depends on your needs, but they obviously have a superior product for the price.

Re: [Audyssey] Wrestling Game Updates/Decisions
Hi tom. well if technically a single wrestler is easier that makes sense, and I admit I'd like the idea of the career mode being from the perspective of a wrstler I create. However, there might be a compromise. For instance, instead of letting the user create custom moves for their wrestler, let them choose only from the number of moves already in game (if your creating so many wrestlers, this should give lots of choice). ditto for Ai if the ai is based on basic probabilities and stats, --- either that or as I said one must fall did, create a number of ai styles someone could choose for a custom wrestler, for instance if I remember my wwf correctly, sergeant slaughter most often fought very aggressively and with use of submission holds like the cammel clutch, where as someone like texus tornado relied more on fast movement and agility, with lots of ground based attack maneuvers like the irish whip and his own tornado move. If a player wanted a custom wrestler who fought like sergeant slaughter, they could select ai type aggressive submission, where as if they wanted a fast wrestler like texus tornado they could select the ground based agile style. if this goes beyond technical considderations or what you'd like in the game, fair enough, though i'm stil glad you'll be letting us create at least our own main character as the case goes either way.
