so this gamemaker for sighted people from www.gamemaker.nl can make audio 
games? is it better to have the registered version to make audio games 
though?

  My apologies, I thought you were referring to the audio game creator, not 
the graphical one for the sighted.
  No, I'm sure that one is highly inaccessible, though I haven't tried it 
myself.

Re: [Audyssey] game maker

2007-01-18 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Bryan,
I kind of doubt that. It has been my general experience when something 
is made specially for the blind, especially designed to be accessible, 
it is most often chosen over more mainstream commercial products.
Take OCR software. There are some really good OCR products out there 
like Omnipage and Text Bridge, but acessible OCR products like Openbook 
and K1000are still being baught and used by the blind. The only thing I 
can think of that is better about say Openbook is the ability to scan 
and read, and of course the built in text to speech. Otherwise with a 
screen reader and MS Word you can just sscan your document in to Word 
with Omnipage's MS Word plugins.

Hi Dark,
I've heard that to. Problem with these off the shelf engines and 
building tools many of them  simply don't have the ability to create the 
kinds of access features we want. I am happy to see Audio Games Maker is 
at least going to be an off the shelf tool from which to create games 
with accessibility in mind.


Dark wrote:
 Having not looked into the thing I can't be certain, but I've heard quite a 
 lot of talk about the limitations of that program, and that to actually get 
 a game worth playing it's a good idea to tinker with the code in the exe 
 file yourself.

 Also, even if it can pan sounds left to right and play different amounts of 
 sounds at once, does it have the same ability to create a 3D environment and 
 objects in sound you can interact with, as in Sod? could you have sound 
 cutscenes with it?

 Personally, i can't wait for the audio game maker to come out, sinse i've 
 already considdered how to do some fun things with it.

 My only problem is that the production I'm in happens in early march, so 
 it'll be a while before I can spend all my time and energy on Audio game 
 maker.

I'm not sure if you can do 3d sound or not. if you can, it's probably with 
the registered version. and probably if you want to do more you have to 
learn their scripting language. also the registered version you can get more 
libraries for it. what that does or lets you do I don't know.

 the
 thing about the program from www.gamemaker.nl is there's a lot of

 we don't need such as features for makeing drawings move and things like
 that. But game-maker does have sound features, requires DirectX8 or more
 to
 play sounds, can play multiple sounds and loop them, and you can pan
 sounds
 from left to right in advanced mode. And if you register it for $20 you
 get
 even more features like libraries and things like that. You can even 
 make
 games with gamemaker in which you can save your players progress in the

Re: [Audyssey] game maker

2007-01-18 Thread Josh
I suggest everyone use audio-game-maker anyway. Although I have this 
program, what if audo-game-maker has something this program does not? 
Besides, I think for to get the most out of makeing games it's good to have 
more than one of these programs. As soon as audio-game-maker is available 
for download I'm getting it and useing it! And if the makers of 
audio-game-maker would put a pay-pal button on their website even if they 
couldn't get funding, couldn't we each donate some money to help them 
continue the project? I'd be willing to donate some money!

often have no way to put all the resources in to sound effects and or 
use of SAPI to describe things thus becomes a visual only medium.

 Hi,

 I downloaded and tried the gamemaker software. It's very accessible using
 a
 screen reader. There are keyboard shortcuts everywhere and as far as I 
 can
 see everything talks using jaws7 and window-eyes too, most likely. Now 
 the
 thing about the program from www.gamemaker.nl is there's a lot of 
 features
 we don't need such as features for makeing drawings move and things like
 that. But game-maker does have sound features, requires DirectX8 or more
 to
 play sounds, can play multiple sounds and loop them, and you can pan
 sounds
 from left to right in advanced mode. And if you register it for $20 you
 get
 even more features like libraries and things like that. You can even make
 games with gamemaker in which you can save your players progress in the
 .exe
 files that gamemaker can create. registration is only $20, the software 
 is
 very very accessible.

 You might want to be careful about that. You might just turn everybody off
 Audio Game Maker. If a program exists that already allows players to save
 their in-game progress, people aren't going to want to try the specially
 designed program, meaning it won't be updated because the devs won't get 
 the
 funding they need to continue work on it.
