Hello Thomas,
You may be interested in a small thing I began these last months.
I'm making a plain C DLL that automatically select the active screen
reader to speak text, or optionally fallback to SAPI if no screen reader
is available. It currently supports jaws, NVDA, system access and
About my new game score, I think it's not possible to add a multiplayer
feature. It's really not a technical problem but more a gameplay problem.
If you have good ideas on how multiplayer game could work, let me know.
I already tried two options when the game was still called magic blocks
and
well since I am a heavy user of nvda on the espeak synth i am quite
happy with that.

Thanks for the offer. What would the license be for using this dll of

Yeah, I know what you mean. I use NVDA so much ESpeak has sort of

Hi Thomas,
There is an easy solution to fix this problem. I use it in BGT with no
difficulties. You want to install a low level keyhook in the process using
SetWindowsHookEx, and inside the hook callback you simply let all the
keyboard events through. What happens then is that, since Jaws

Hi.
Ok. Here are my thoughts on the game after playing it for 2 days. I've

part. The thing that throws me off is that you can hear zombies through

I'll let you know if I think of a workaround for these multiplayer issues.
The biggest playroom problem I've found is that when you're playing games
and one draws a card too fast, the client tries drawing multiple cards of
the same type and crashes. I haven't played much in the
The crash if junking cards too fast is a known bug. I don't know what's
