Re: My idea to encourage people to use Python and make more games with it
Re: My idea to encourage people to use Python and make more games with it Hi,I have searched about openal, but seems all the bindings ever created for it are at least 5 years old if not more. Also, hrtf seems to be missing as well.SoLoud would have been good, but it's official website states it may not be so fast as other libraries are. And I do remember the firefight developer saying how he has tried it and it's laggy.

Re: My idea to encourage people to use Python and make more games with it
Re: My idea to encourage people to use Python and make more games with it Hi,Thank you everyone. So as everyone suggested, next commit will remove those builtins and focus will be now on only providing important BGT objects and functions which are not already available in python. Now, I'd need a bit of help.I'd like to add a proper 3d audio system in this engine now, because that's a part where most beginners struggle. There are three options.1. Use libaudioverse, but then that's not for the mac.2. use pyfmodex.3. Some of you may know, there is a well maintained engine called panda3D. That has FMOD bindings already. So if anyone can guide me through the documentation, I will be really grateful.It's possible to create a new binding of course. But as everyone stated, why reinvent the wheel if it's already made. So, what are your opinions?This is probably the biggest part of the engine, other things like menu system or gui forms etc arent that much of an issue.Regards,Amit URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/410709/#p410709 -- Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector
Re: My idea to encourage people to use Python and make more games with it
Re: My idea to encourage people to use Python and make more games with it Hi,Thanks everyone. Post 24. I appreciate your suggestions and will improve my shortcomings.I still remember the time when I had released my first game with a friend. That was an exciting day. The release was small, but it was something we made ourselves. But that was it. I have decided to leave BGT on that point, because I wanted to be a mainstream programmer; not just someone who uses an audio game kit people never heard the name of as well as other obvious reasons. A quick google search revealed python is the easyest to start with, hence I began learning. This phase is pretty crucial; I always thought of releasing a fully featured audio game for people to play, and often in excitement I'd open google to search about the libraries I can use to make it. But that always lead to the fact that there wasn't a beginner friendly solution. You'd need to find and assemble all the libraries you need manually. Accessible_output2 and others. Who can forget the countless topics beginners have made which were made to ask how to fix the errors with installing that speech library. Or how do we set up tolk etc, or countless topics about 3d audio libraries. And somewhere between all this, a thought was always flipping back and forth. Why not just fallback to BGT, you have all resources you need there already made for you? This project is exactly meant to help programmers during this state. I dont encourage anyone to stick with the library I am writing forever; This is only meant to help newbies and give them a bit easier welcome to python. They can pick the library up and start from there. And believe or not. In the process, they will actually learn more and more python.Well just a simple question. What's better. to stick to BGT, which isnt cross platform, isnt even a coding language and all such issues? or to stick to a python library, which is actually making you comfortable with python on your initial learning phase?And oh,WXPython is beeing used for alert and input_box functions. pygame is doing the window and keyboard handling. If pygame has those dialogues, accessible somewhere, I can easily get rid of wx from the project.Finally. I believe a properly developed tool to make games with, needs to be exist and maintained. Tools are there, but unfortunately kept private. That's fine though, if somebody says Liam to share his tools, that's not correct in my opinion, because those are the tools of a comercial company. Same goes for AHC people; asking them to share their game engine will be rediculus. But individual projects. Those should be shared for everyone's benifit. People have the required knowledge to develop and release something which is way better than the thing I have here and that too they can do in a few days. But unfortunately, no one is taking off any time for it. Ethin for example. He can be found bashing BGT where he can. But so far, I dont see any step forward to rectify the issue, instead of just talking and bashing, even though he has knowledge I can only dream of as a beginner at this point.

Re: Some question from a beginner
Re: Some question from a beginner Hi,Yes, this book is fine even if you are totally blind; I've used this myself. Now, I'd like to tell you one thing. In computer world, the number of accessible programs and resources is increasing, but still it's very less than desired. E.G. there are millions of games available for sited people to play, but how many of those are accessible? maybe a few in the tens out of billions. But desire is a very strong driving force. Sited people weren't interested in making games accessible, so people went on making audio games. Yes , I know these are outnumbered and aren't as good as mainstream ones in quality, but they are improving. So my point? A desire is everything you'd ever need. Think about this issue like this:There are two students. One of them is highly rich, he has every facility you can imagine for achieving optimum education, whilst the other one belongs to a very poor family, and he barely can buy his school books. But rich student in the example, has no desire to get that education. He constantly keeps himself involved things totally unrelated to education and keeps wasting his time. While the other one has a burning desire to get success and to provide a better living to his family. And one day, the student who had nothing is successful, and the other one? it's obvious what happened with him. and why was he unsuccessful is very obvious as well. Yes he has everything. But did those resources can do anything on their own if the user of them isn't making any use of them?There is no need to find resources which specifically are made for the blind. Pick mainstream resources and drive yourself through. Something isn't accessible? try to locate a substitute for that particular thing. That's all. For us, our desire is our strongest force. Make well use of it and you will have mastered any programming language you choose one day.

Re: Some question from a beginner
Re: Some question from a beginner Hi,The python crash course book seems a perfect fit for you. It teaches you python; first you get to learn python basics then you put the knowledge to practice with 3 real world projects. A game, a data visualisation program and a small web application.The book isnt free though. I think it's around 10 dollars from amazon.And BGT. I'd say you should start with a real world programming language instead. The prime reason beeing is that BGT is audiogames specific. So if you have any questions, you are limited to this forum only, but if you learn a mainstream language, you can directly paste your doubts or programming errors on google to get a resolution immediately; I think this is the best stratigy for beginners. A lot of google searches and a decent python book and that's about it.Regards,Amit URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/409589/#p409589 -- Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: Audiogames In JavaScript?
Re: Audiogames In _javascript_? Hi,If I'm not wrong, the biggest reason to start this project is cross platform support right? In that case, there's a unity project you're already running. And trust me, you'll be far more pleased if you could complete the unity project. The reason is that even if you manage to successfully complete the _javascript_ project and even if it works, there's no way that that can overpower unity. Unity already got cross platform support and unity is specially designed for game development. And the fact that unity is so much popular is alone enough to prove that it's something. So for above reasons, I'd suggest to continue the unity project and then do the _javascript_ thing if you really want. Please note that I didn't want to discourage you or anything, I just said what I had in my mind after reading your posts. One thing which comes into mind is that you might worry about will people really use it? And the answer to that can be, If people see that a project is not improved in a long while or is worked on very slowly then it's regarded as discontinued. People only like to use a library which is being worked on. So after people start to see that your project is improving at a good pace there's no doubt the project has potential to throw out BGT from the market.

To support this, look some python below.a=5b=10a,b=b,awhat the above code did is that it swapped the values those two variables, a and b contained. Imagine doing this in c/c++ or BGT.

Not to mention python is probably the easiest language you can use in the world (if someone knows a language which can challenge python in simplicity and other factors, let me know here). If using python, get pygame or pyglet whatever you want. For sound, get sound_lib or libaudioverse and finally, for server and client stuff, use twisted maybe.Regards,Amit URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=352232#p352232 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Getting started in python game development
Getting started in python game development Hello all,I think I will be asking a lot of questions related to this topic in future so I'm making a central topic for all my questions rather than posting a new topic each time. SO after making games in BGT and grasping programming concepts, I'm wanting to switch from BGT to python. I did some researches on google and found python game libraries along with accessible_output2. All is working well till now, I got the window up and running on the screen and I have a menu with speech. The only concern is sound. The game I'm making feels laggy and I suspect it's due to pygame's sound capabilities not beeing so good. Therefore, I'm wanting to rewrite my sound module in sound_lib or libaudioverse but I'm not able to understand how to get started in it. Could anyone help me regarding this matter? just a small example in both of these libraries maybe?

Re: Thinking Of Moving into Stack Overflow
Re: Thinking Of Moving into Stack Overflow Hi,I am not on that popular forum though I've heard that asking questions is not an easier job there compared to this forum. You have to ask in proper manner and if if you fail to do that, your question will be flagged and won't be answered. I could be wrong but that's why I heard. Some programming books, including "automate the borring stuff with python" tell you how to ask a question on those kinds of forums, so if you have such a book, you are golden.Regards,Amit URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=349451#p349451 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector
Re: User text in wait(); in bgt.
Re: User text in wait(); in bgt. Hi,Excuse me, but I did not understand your question properly. the wait() is a function in bgt which will pause your game for the specified time. the time it takes is in miliseconds. the ways a function can be used in general programming is to either give it values by hand each time or make a variable which holds your value and pass it each time to the function. if you store your waiting in a variable, you are following a nice programming approach; since now you can just change the value your waiting variable has to increase or decrease the amount of time your wait functions are using. you can make variables for different waiting things like footsteps and so on. then you just pass those variables. I hope this was the thing you wanted. One more approach is to use something like this:string text="hello";wait(text.length());remember that a string is also an aray. the length method will return the length of the string; in our case, the string "hello" has 5 characters, thus it will return 5. so the wait function call becomes wait(5);Regards,Amit URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=347514#p347514 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector
Re: Handles in BGT, need help
Re: Handles in BGT, need help
Hi,at first I did not get handels in bgt at all. I had same questions and here is what I've found:handels are pointers to an object. if you wanted to make a function which will decrease the volume of a playing file you would use handels in the following way:void volume_manager(sound@my_object) {// here my_object is a handle. when you will call this function you have to pass something which is an object of sound class because the function requires it.// read on, things will become clearif (key pressed(page up) {my_object.volume=my_object.volume-1;fade(my_object);//fade so that we don't decrease the volume abruptly}else if (key pressed(page down) {// same code goes here, but this time for increasing the volume}}we are done. now that function can be called in a gameloop and it can increase/decrease the volume nicely when page up or page down are pressed. note that we could have never done this if we were to pass a filename. we had to pass an actual object of sound class. that's why and how handles are used.I might not have explained properly; in that case someone more experienced than me will try for sure.Regards,Amit

Re: Accessing the BGT Documentation?
Re: Accessing the BGT Documentation? hi,There is one more way; the game called braillemon is made with game maker studio. But I personally have never used it so can't say much about it. Other than that there is of course python, c# and pure basic. There is also quorum, but it has some accessibility issues even though it was intended for visually impaired. If you choose languages like c++ python or c# then you have to use external libraries and link them with your compiler. For python you can use pygame or pyglet for keybord and windows, Tolk or accessible_output2 for speech and soundlib etc. If you use BGT then your game will only run mainly on windows however almost all other languages are cross platform. And if you get stuck, always google is your friend to destroy issues at sight.Regards, amit URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=342146#p342146 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: Ride, new code editor for blinds
hi guys,So this editor does work and does it's job grately. The features I miss in it is the ability to open files from other drives and if i open a file which doesn't have indentation it should divide the code into blocks using brases( I mean {}). that way ride will save me a tun of timing which I need to spend for indenting my c++ style code so that I can navigate with ease. Keep the job up. It doesn't matter in which language you wrote it, only what matters is your program should work.Regards,Amit

Re: help needed with creating an online multiplayer
Re: help needed with creating an online multiplayer Hiso basically you are saying, that the game we are creating and other online games created by other developers are impossible to play unless both sides set up port forwarding in their routers? or, perhaps a VPN will do the job?the amount of time spent in setting up these for playing just a game? and what about all those different possibilities which might stop a player from doing so are there also. Now it seems like creating an online multiplayer doesn't worth the time since no one will give their precious time for setting up those things just for a few minutes of a small game.if there is another solution, I'd love to know it. if not, then I think we will have to release this game playable against computer only.Regards,Amit URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=330927#p330927 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector
Re: help needed with creating an online multiplayer
Re: help needed with creating an online multiplayer Hello,I don't have a virus protection software installed except windows defender. So as you know, in any online game, one player has to host a server and another player tries to connect to it. What happens here is that, neither a firewall is blocking the connection nor a virus protection software. Still, none of us can connect with each other. I tried hosting the server, my friend tried hosting the server multiple times but no luck. Dragonpong only says "can't connect". and the BGT code I have, if I make a server on local computer and try to connect with it (127.0.0.1), it works. but as soon as we take someone's IP and try to connect, it will fail to do so. therefore, probably there is some problem with hosting the server. I hope you understand my problem better now.Regards,Amit URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=330881#p330881 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: Is it worth it to develop games on BGT?
Re: Is it worth it to develop games on BGT? Hi,I just came back home and saw this topic. I've tried BGT, and it seems really simple to set up menus and everything than python or any other language. While I also don't have any idea about how would I create a map save it and load it later, but I know if I try I will learn it. Another option available is Unity. It is currently not officially accessible but some efforts are going on. As you may know there exists braillemon, a pokemon port for visually impaired which is created using yoyo game maker studio so I hope that is accessible too. I believe it depends on your personal comfort. Just find a language you feel comfortable with and go after it like mad. But if you kept wondering about which language to learn and jump from one language to another, you won't reach anywhere. I also did that but now I will just pick a language I like and stick with it until I learn it.Hope that helps you. Will be looking forward to try what game you bring up in the fut ure.
