[Audyssey] Question for Thomas Ward
Hi Thomas, I'm directing this at you, but the questionand its answer might be useful to others on the list, so I'm posting it here. My question is simply this...I'm very interested in becoming a coder. Specifically, I have notions of building a blind friendly MUD from scratch. I have ideas for a unique magic system,diverse skills from fishing to the crafting of magic rings, several denominations of coin, numerous guilds and several other features which I may see on individual muds, but never all of them in the same game. What programming language or environment would you recommend that I investigate for this kind of project? I've never coded before, but as Hannnibal Lecter says I have oodles of time and the bloody mindedness you need to complete projects of this scope. I'll be eager to hear any suggestions, warnings and words of wisdom you might have for me. I am eager to make a significant contribution to the blind gamer community, and to anyone who wants real depth of play in a sophisticated text MMPORPG.

Re: [Audyssey] super liam lava lake level
Hi, that's strange, cause if you jump, you should have enough time and speed to leave the volcano far behind you. Just don't be afraid to jump up as soon as you land, again and again, you should always hear a little single troop or a firepit long before you jump into it. Then you can slow down and walk or run towards it and start jumping again.

Hi all, I am ramping up plans for an online head to head fighting game. At first it will mostly be a test bed for latency issues, so I can see what the limitations are for head to head combat over the internet. One idea I am picking at is the inclusion of The nintendo Wii controllers for the game. It is possible to use the Wii controllers via a blue tooth hookup with a PC. Having used these controlers on my Wii, I can tell you they are amazing. In the boxing game, the faster you punch with the controller, the harder your character punches. In Mortal Combat, you draw a pattern in the air with your controller to execute certain moves. All of this functionality is available with the PC port of the controller software. My question is, how much would the average blind gamer be into this? I think the draw to a head to head fighting game would be good, assuming lag issues could be worked out, but would the average gamer be willing to drop the $50 or so necessary to buy a controller and blue-tooth hook up? The possibilities for useing the Wii controllers is immense for accessible gaming, most especially for action titles. The balance board can be used as well, another $80 or so. Think of the ability to dodge your opponent simply by leaning, or run away from a monster by, well, running. Anyhow, it is an exciting concept, what do you guys think?

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA
Hi William, For the moment I am just looking at Windows for the immediate future. I can't say if or when a Mac version will appear now that that the cross platform engine continues to crash all the time. I am suspecting I am using more audio channels at a time than SDL Mixer can handle. I might have to completely rework the sound support so that I use a lot less audio channels in use at any one time. one of my cross platform projects, Star Trek, uses SDL and I am not having any issues remotely like those I am experiencing with MOTA. Though, admitedly the Star Trek game uses under 50 sounds at any given time where MOTA has on average about 100 which might be just a little much for SDL Mixer. My point is cross platform games are definitely on the way, but I don't know that I can do it with each and every game just do to certain specifications required to run them. There are certainly advantages to sticking with DirectX and some Windows stuff for some games over SDL. The games are able to be ported easily will get ported. Some of them like MOTA I'd like to port, but am encountering way too many issues at the time being to do it. william lomas wrote: see what i'd do thomas is release the windows one first, but i will wait for a key if you are hoping to make it mac playable and then if you wish to make it mac and linux playable then this can be done later on but as I already pre=ordered I won't play the windows title if in the future even if I have to wait, it iwll be mac playable as this will be a blast for mac users like myself --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Rail Racing for speed junkies. was:Re: Would you pay $50for a killer controller?
Hi Jim, Other than the fact .NET Framework 1.1 creates an extra user acccount you can delete I don't foresee any problems installing the .NET Framework. The .NET Framework is just a set of libraries that run C-Sharp and Visual Basic 2003, 2005, and 2008 applications. I've sold about 200 copies of Montezuma's Revenge and at no time have I gotten any tech support e-mails about .NET Framework 3.0 or 3.5. When I released STFC, which initially was built for .NET Framework 1.1, I did get a few tech support issues about that extra user account 1.1 adds. They would restart and got a login screen and wanted it turned off. Simply deleting the .NET account it created solved the problem. To date that is the only issue I've heard of. As for your issue with updating Windows in general I am a bit mystified as to the problem. Generally installing service packs are a good thing. They fix all sorts of nasty bugs, fix critical security issues, and generally make Windos more stable not less so. I've got Service Pack 3 on XP and it runs great on XP. XP with Service Pack 3 is several times more stable than Windows Xp without any service packs. Anyway, not trying to convert you here. Just commenting as to the fact updating your system shuldn't be causing you grief. Windows Update and Windows service packs are meant to be easy and painless to install for both technically and not so technically minded computer users. Smile.

As far as upgrading DirectX goes you have to if you ever want to play any games that use the .NET Framework.

Hi Josh and all, Letting your customers know what is going on is definitely a personal call. There is a good side to being very open and canded with your customers, and there is also a bad side to it as well. I mainly picked the open and canded polacy, because it was the best way to let everyone know where a certain product stands in development. However, that open polacy has burned me a couple of times where I have said I was doing something and the plans fell through do to some technical issue or other. Like my mentioning I am working on a Mac compatible version of MOTA. That is true, but now I know that version will have to wait because the game constantly ccrashes, and I'd rather get the Windows release out first since it is more or less stable and doesn't crash like the Mac and Linux ports do. In hindsight I wish I would have held off mentioning anything about those versions until I had something that really worked without crashing. So there is always a thin line between saying not enough or saying too much. Draconis Entertainment wrote: Charles and all, Thank you for your message. This is something very important to remember. Draconis has the policy of keeping the vast majority of what we're doing secret until things are ready to be released. We've recently taken on new staff to hopefully increase the number of titles we can release and decrease the amount of time between titles. We've been thinking about the idea of lifting the veil more frequently on what we're doing, but the type of gamers you're describing makes us reluctant to do so. We have neither the time nor the inclination to try to cope with those issues. Some developers have been driven away by it. Some are quite frustrated by it. And, in the end, it is the gamers who lose out the most, by either not getting new games at all, or not getting to participate in the excitement of a new title under development. I admire Tom Ward, who has the time and patience to keep everyone in the loop about his development progress. Those of us at Draconis find such activity to be distracting and slowing the process of what we really want to be doing...developing games. We will have a number of great titles out this year, and they should start coming relatively rapidly. Should we lift the veil? Or should we remain silent. It is something we will continue to ponder. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA
Hi Bryan, Well... Yes and no. Sure there are differences between an FPS game and an old Atari style shoot-m-up, but many of the core concepts behind them are the same. For example if you write a joystick interface for a game it makes no difference if the game is Pong or Shades of Doom. The code is pretty much going to be identical no matter what. My point being once you know how to program the core features of a game such as keyboard input, joystick input, do the audio, create a master game loop, etc you are already 75% the way to creating a game. After that you just need to write the functionality that fitst the game weather it is walking, running, or batting a ball back and forth, etc. If you are an acomplished programmer figuring out how to bat a ball back and forth or running/walking should come naturally. The skill is in knowing how to program, and think in terms of logical progression of the code.

Visual Studio formats your source code as you type it, has autocompletion, and of course you can select various Windows controls from the toolbox that automatically generates the code for buttons, labels, timers, etc. On the other hand I prefer using textpad or notepad just because I don't have to deal with all the child windows and other visual junk on the screen in Visual Studio.

I haven't gotten any feedback on it, so I'm assuming people don't care much. Also I don't know if I mentioned this, but completing all 10 challenges for a character earns you a trophy for ps3, and achievement points for the xbox 360. so if collecting all points or trophies is your goal, then it is crucial that you complete all challenges for each character.

Re: [Audyssey] Creating a Mud was Question for Thomas Ward
HI Thomas, It sounds like I might be biting off more than I can chew, but I am grateful for your advice and the wealth of information you've given me here. Wish me luck! --Bill - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Saturday, January 31, 2009 9:17 AM Subject: [Audyssey] Creating a Mud was Question for Thomas Ward Hi Bill, Well, if you are serious about creating a mud server from scratch, and wish to do it right, that is a pretty big undertaking. I don't want to be discurraging, but it is a rather big project. At any rate here is my take for a project like that. First, you need to get the proper software, tools, and environment to build your mud server. For games like mud servers I absolutely, totally, recommend using a dedicated Linux based computer to host the mud. The most accessible, blind friendly, Linux os out there is Ubuntu 8.10. You can download the cd for free from http://www.ubuntu.com and they have a getting started wiki on sight. Also check out the Orca wiki on http://live.gnome.org/Orca which has getting started information for new blind Linux users new to Linux screen readers, magnification, etc. There are howto docs on there how to install Linux with speech and so on. Plus the Orca list is another great resource. If you were absolutely dead set on using Windows for your mud server it can be done using a Unix ssubsystem such as Cigwin on Windows Server 2003 or 2008, but it is not recommended. There are a lot of reasons why I personally say go the hole hog and put Linux on an extra PC you might have laying around to act as your mud server platform. So why use Linux instead of Windows? 1. Linux is more reliable - Windows based servers tend to crash or freeze more often than Linux installations, that generally run for weeks if not months without needing a reboot. 2. You can install and upgrade new software applications without the you need to restart the computer to complete the installation hastle Windows always gives you when installing software. That of course results in down time for a mud on Windows. 3. Better proformence - the same program, running on the same hardware (dual-boot) will tend to run faster under Linux than under Windows. Especially, when comparing a Ubuntu Linux server vs Windows Server 2008. 4. Much better networking with multi-user support - Windows Server 2003/2008 servers tend to slow down quite a bit when you hit about 100 simultaneous connections. By contrast, Ubuntu Linux is geared up to handle many connections at the same time, that is why most web servers and mud servers are Linux, not Windows based. 5. Free software - things you need like the C++ compiler, SQL server, web server, and many other software applications are free under Linux. Since the entire operating system, screen reader and all, is free it will save you money and will cost you nothing but your electric bill to run your mud server. 6. More support - stuff like the startup scripts out there are geared to a Linux installation. 7. Better tools - installing snippets is easier with patch and diff which work best under Unix (again, they work OK under Cygwin too). 8. Viruses and worms - you know most PCs these days are Windows PCs, and that is exactly what the worm/virus/trojan horse writers are targetting.

Hi Bill, Yeah, if you don't want to build your own dedicated mud server from scratch like i described earlier the MOO language might be a better way to go. When you said from scratch I thought you meant building a mud server from the ground up which is what I described. Grin. If you are just interested in writing something rather quickly and simply working with an existing MOO and MOO language would work better in your case.

I don't want to be discurraging, but it is a rather big project. At any rate here is my take for a project like that. First, you need to get the proper software, tools, and environment to build your mud server. For games like mud servers I absolutely, totally, recommend using a dedicated Linux based computer to host the mud. The most accessible, blind friendly, Linux os out there is Ubuntu 8.10. You can download the cd for free from http://www.ubuntu.com and they have a getting started wiki on sight. Also check out the Orca wiki on http://live.gnome.org/Orca which has getting started information for new blind Linux users new to Linux screen readers, magnification, etc. There are howto docs on there how to install Linux with speech and so on. Plus the Orca list is another great resource. If you were absolutely dead set on using Windows for your mud server it can be done using a Unix ssubsystem such as Cigwin on Windows Server 2003 or 2008, but it is not recommended. There are a lot of reasons why I personally say go the hole hog and put Linux on an extra PC you might have laying around to act as your mud server platform. So why use Linux instead of Windows? 1. Linux is more reliable - Windows based servers tend to crash or freeze more often than Linux installations, that generally run for weeks if not months without needing a reboot. 2. You can install and upgrade new software applications without the you need to restart the computer to complete the installation hastle Windows always gives you when installing software. That of course results in down time for a mud on Windows. 3. Better proformence - the same program, running on the same hardware (dual-boot) will tend to run faster under Linux than under Windows. Especially, when comparing a Ubuntu Linux server vs Windows Server 2008. 4. Much better networking with multi-user support - Windows Server 2003/2008 servers tend to slow down quite a bit when you hit about 100 simultaneous connections. By contrast, Ubuntu Linux is geared up to handle many connections at the same time, that is why most web servers and mud servers are Linux, not Windows based. 5. Free software - things you need like the C++ compiler, SQL server, web server, and many other software applications are free under Linux. Since the entire operating system, screen reader and all, is free it will save you money and will cost you nothing but your electric bill to run your mud server. 6. More support - stuff like the startup scripts out there are geared to a Linux installation. 7. Better tools - installing snippets is easier with patch and diff which work best under Unix (again, they work OK under Cygwin too). 8. Viruses and worms - you know most PCs these days are Windows PCs, and that is exactly what the worm/virus/trojan horse writers are targetting. With Linux you tend to be left alone most of the time. 8. Better firewalling - Linux comes with built-in firewall tools (again, I know that XP/Vista does too) which make it easier to secure your connections. I don't really want to start an operating system flame war, and I use Windows (for example to develop most of my software and like a lot of aspects of it, however for good, solid, mudding I think it is hard to pass by Linux as the mud server platform.

Basically, I mean guns, cars, and in general a more modern feel to the mud. Can anyone recommend something? Karl -- Email services provided by the System Access Mobile Network.

Re: [Audyssey] Question for Thomas Ward
Hi, I see no reason whatsoever why you shouldn't go that route, to use MOO code instead of building your own server. Building it would require lots of coding, probably in C++. Basically, MOO has it's on server (LambdaMoo or GammaMoo) Server and databases. There are several databases to use. I personally recommend a database called LambdaCore. I don't have much experience 'setting up' the MOO server, however I've somehow done it before, and it's not too difficult. In fact, most MOO's use MOO Code/Server instead of building there own, as far as I am aware. I know myself, and a few others, wouldn't mind coming onto your MOO and helping you code some things. As far as hosting, there is a free host called Moo Cow Penguin at www.moocowpenguin.net/ . -Ryan On Sat, Jan 31, 2009 at 10:07 PM, William L.

Re: [Audyssey] mk info and a combo challenge question.
Heh.. I can't even imagine how weird it would be to invite someone through the web.

This is the one downside I have about the ps3 aside from the lack of psn management through the web is that you can only invite in certain games.

If anyone's working on the challenges, I'd be glad to continue posting revisions. However if noone is interested, then I really don't see the point. I haven't gotten any feedback on it, so I'm assuming people don't care much. Also I don't know if I mentioned this, but completing all 10 challenges for a character earns you a trophy for ps3, and achievement points for the xbox 360. so if collecting all points or trophies is your goal, then it is crucial that you complete all challenges for each character. I believe there are 43 trophies in total and 1000 achievement points.Finally I'd be interested in fighting someone on this list. I wanna see if you have what it takes lol. If you live in Europe I won't be able to fight you unfortunately, but if you have a ps3 and are elsewhere in the world then feel free to send me a message with your info. If enough people are interested we could even hold an mk tournament. - For video game music and related content, check out the following site: http://gh.ffshrine.org?r=16426 --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
