way out I see is jim interfacing with the jaws api and calling the braille
scripts that way. but then people start complaining hey hey I'm using
Hi Charles,
I'm sorry, but you know because my games are self voicing via the free
Microsoft sapi5 text to speech engine I don't guess that they would do anything
for a braille display. There is just no good way to put text to the screen in
Windows so that it would work with all Windows
Hi Richard,
Thanks for the description of Missile Command. That is pretty much like how I
remember playing it back when I had sight. Now just for finding sounds that
won't be too annoying for the incoming missiles and your targeting pointer.

Hadn't thought of using a color identifier. I'm getting a new one when
computer room services get their act together in the new year because my old
one isn't too accurate any more, but cool idea.

I would just like to publicly point out that q9 is the best sidescroller
i have ever played. When I indicated the demo to brazilian people, last
week, we had five people from here playing it, now, we have over 25
people with the demo in hand, and the game is generating challenge, and
competition
Hi Mauricio,
Thanks for that. I'm glad to hear that people are enjoying the game, very
rewarding after the many months of work that were spent on it.
Kind regards,

Hi Folks,
I just added, Dice Roller by Jim Kitchen to my downloads page.
This free Windows based Dice Roller uses your SAPI voice to speak all the

Unzip it to its own folder, and run the DiceRoll.exe in the created folder.
You should have Jim Kitchen's WinKit installed as it contains the

HiDarren,As Time of Conflict has not been released yet and is still in
private beta I don't think a detailed description is in order.
It is a war game loosely based on technology of around 1940.
You have cities and territory to defend and troops and equipment that you
send out to explore and
Certainly sounds interesting. Hope they incorperate stuff like building more
troops and the like. This certainly does sound interesting.

Hi,
I've seen some games try to divide data too much. While this is certainly
beneficial since it gives you smaller areas to work with, if overdone it can
negate the purpose of sectors altogether. I'd much rather see sectors
defined in a more consistent manner, like A-Z going left to right and
Hello Jim,
For the incoming missile, how about a windy mild whistling sound which
is descending in pitch. This sound would be placed somewhere in the
stereo field. If it is at an angle, it would move across the stereo
field as it descends.
For the targeting pointer, use a solid quiet

Just one more registering interest. Dabbled with Sound RTS and liked
the idea of the genre at least, though I found the novelty wore off
quite soon because of the fairly limited stuff I could do.

I don't know if you are a member of Book Share or not, but they do have

Unfortunately, SoundRTS, like many accessible games, is only a stripped

I'm still updating the dice roler with more features. The latest gives it the

shows each die's result. If the user needs to reroll one of the results, they
can arrow to it and press ctrl+r.
