Re: [Audyssey] Monti 3 is good!
Hi Karl, Quote I have found one or two times that when I entered a dark room, especially at a run, two torches were used. End quote Hmmm... Never seen this myself, but I think from time to time such gliches like this are bound to pop up once and a while. Problem is it is not something that is consistent, and such bugs like that are a serious pain to fix. Quote Also, the nonagression by skulls and spiders when you have a sword isn't fixed. I think this should be fixed so that if you stand still and an enemy comes near you, within sword rang, it will automatically be attacked. End quote I know. I haven't gotten to working on this issue yet. There were other bugs I felt needed my attention first such as the one where save and restore options wasn't working. When installing a new version it is always a good idea to look at the Changes.txt file to get a good idea of exactly the issues or problems addressed in the release. If you don't see something in there it is likely I did not either find time to address that particular bug yet, don't have a solution for it, or I have ranked it in the to do list for the next patch/upgrade. Anyway, as far as Beta 3 goes I felt some bug fixes were needed asap,and released the update earlier than usual. Though, your non-agressive monster bug is on my list of things to do for Beta 4. Quote Also, I feel that, if you have a sword and land on a skull or spider, you should kill it, rather than it killing you. This would be analogous to stabbing down with the sword as you land. End quote Hmmm... Cool idea. Not sure how the purests will go for it, but I think you are right. If you are armed you should be able to kill a monster if you land on them. I am also thinking about restoring the ability to kill snakes, because it doesn't make sense you can kill sskulls and spiders, but not snakes. --- 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] Monti 3 is good!
Well Raul, the only key Hal actually needs is the key to turn back on the hotkeys, - ctrl eight by default. If you've turned the voice off, you need to re-enable hotkeys before you turn it back on. I'm not sure of all the technical reasons, but from what I've read in other docs, Hal probably doesn't do the same thing with tracking curser keys as Jaws, - and maybe Window eyes, I'm not sure. Once the voice and keys are off, for all practical purposes, it seems as if Hal isn't there anymore though it's stil running in the background. I've known people do some pretty intensive keyboard intensive stuff with hal's voice and keys off, - such as playing graphical games on the same machine, and there didn't appear to be any slowdown or similar.

Re: [Audyssey] Monti 3 is good!
Hi Dark, I don't have an official release date for the project, but I am hoping to make it availible around Christmas time. Even if the stable release isn't here by then I'll probably be able to do preorders, and since there is a public demo it won't be the same as Alchemy's preorders. They'll have a demo to play until I can get 1.0 stable ready for download. However, you are correct. The project is reaching a stable release very soon. There are a few bugs/issues I want to tie up, some levels I need to script, and add the games registration system. Usually, when you can count the things to do on one hand you know it is very much near complete for a 1.0 stable. Dark wrote: Hi tom.

Re: [Audyssey] Monti 3 is good!
Hi Raul, Actually, the step sounds you hear aren't sand, but a mixture of dirt and gravel step sounds. I had created them for my Tomb Raider game liked them, and thought they would also work great for Montezuma's Revenge for two reasons. First, the historical Aztec and Mian temples and pyramids were mostly constructed with stone and dirt. Basically large adobe structures, and it is likely the floor is dirt, and maybe some rocks or gravel. Granted Montezuma's Revenge is a more Sci-Fi game still adding dirt to the floor rather than sand is more realistic. More in keeping with how they would have been built historically. Second, when trying them out I really liked those sounds. It made me personally feel like I was there. The sound quality sounded more real. You know what I mean? As for the torches I updated them to use a timer so if you view the map, pause the game, etc they will also wait for you to return to normal game play. Raul A.

Re: [Audyssey] Monti 3 is good!
I have found one or two times that when I entered a dark room, especially at a run, two torches were used. Also, the nonagression by skulls and spiders when you have a sword isn't fixed. I think this should be fixed so that if you stand still and an enemy comes near you, within sword rang, it will automatically be attacked. Also, I feel that, if you have a sword and land on a skull or spider, you should kill it, rather than it killing you. This would be analogous to stabbing down with the sword as you land.

First, the historical Aztec and Mian temples and pyramids were mostly constructed with stone and dirt. Basically large adobe structures, and it is likely the floor is dirt, and maybe some rocks or gravel. Granted Montezuma's Revenge is a more Sci-Fi game still adding dirt to the floor rather than sand is more realistic. More in keeping with how they would have been built historically. Second, when trying them out I really liked those sounds. It made me personally feel like I was there. The sound quality sounded more real. You know what I mean? As for the torches I updated them to use a timer so if you view the map, pause the game, etc they will also wait for you to return to normal game play. Raul A.

The system menu still pops up from time to time, but thanks to the new keyboard layout, this is much more rare. Great job on making the changes to the torch, it seems to be a bit better now. -- Raul A.
