Hi Liam,
Please note that I approach the subject *not only* from the point of view of
"Everyone has the right to save the world!" (sighted vs. blind). I also
approach it form the point of view that "By making games more accessible the
industry can reach more gamers" (money) and "Game Accessibil

You could always make a serial list of problems sorted on priority and start
at the top. But it doesn't mean that these problems are not related to each
other and that you can't try and find solutions in a parallel way. Game

Right... That is because you have 1.1 installed. Smile.

Hi, Shaun.
That is fine, but the game wouldn't have installed without 1.1. Which is
the main reason I am not putting up 2.0 yet.

Hi all,
What I am seeing from the posts is two sides of the same coin. Many feel
that we as the blind comunity should contact companies directly while
others feel we should involve RNIB, NFB, AFB, etc. Actually, both sides
of the issue are correct, and it should be our goal to reach out to both
and nothing is a miss yet.

Hi Brandon,
Like you said it will take quite a while, perhaps a month, to upgrade
the core engine to 0.2 stable, but I feel it will all be worth it. In
the end you will get a completely new installation, support for .NET
Framework 2.0, hopefully better audio, better input, and several fixes

Hi, Bryan.
I'm not sure at this point. After all I need to really update the core
engine massively to introduce the new audio, input, and effects

Ryan. I tend to fully agree. I feel that as blind people, gaming is a
privalige and not a right. You can argue that yes our sighted counter parts
can play games so why can't we? there are still more important things we
should be focusing on. I'm certainly glad others feel the way I do.

Ari,
While playing games as a hobby is a great undertaking, I think the biggest
obstacle you'll find is that many of these organizations are going to want
to focus on issues that are of greater importance to blind people in
general--issues such as employment, training, etc. I think you have the

So, if some of us could somehow work on a sort of universal online petition
or document together, that we could somehow then submit to major
organisations like the Rnib, ACB, ONCE, and organisations in countries like

Canada

Nope, but I do know that they won't if we don't bring it to their attention

Hi, Mich.
The new framework is not up there yet as I will be posting it when I
