Re: [Audyssey] Help!
I'm afraid I'm not certain Alan. I did once have that problem, but it took some tinkering in the sapi settings folder to fix it.

Re: [Audyssey] Help!
Hi Allan, Below are some fixes for the sapi5 voices. I know that you tried the first one, but I hope that one of the other fixes might help. The first thing that I would try would be the DelUserLex.exe file that you can find on my free windows sapi5 text to speech games page, as well as on the GW Micro and Freedom Scientific sites. It is a strange file in that it doesn't say or seem to do anything, but it did fix my sapi5 voices. Here is another fix that I was told about. Go to c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Speech Then, press enter on Sapisvr.exe. It won't say anything, but it should correct the control panel entries for Sapi. Another thing that you can do is to use the Windows XP restore feature to restore your computer back to a date when the voices were working. And then there is to use your Windows XP cd to repair the entire sapi5 text to speech engine. you can download (SpeechSDK51MSM.exe). which contains all of the Microsoft Sapi voices available for Windows XP from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=5e86ec97-40a7-453f-b0ee-6583171b4530&displaylang=en HTH BFN Jim Check my web site for my free blind accessible pc dos and windows games. j...@kitchensinc.net http://www.kitchensinc.net (440) 286-6920 Chardon Ohio USA --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Blastbay Studios - upcoming sidescroller
Hi Darren, There are three levels in each world, and the levels get longer as well as more intense as you go which is to be expected. Then there are the bonus rounds that sometimes come your way, they allow you to pick up a lot of extra goods that will come in handy; especially in the later parts of the game. Then of course there is the boss, he takes a while to master and he'll probably shave off a few of your lives especially on the harder difficulties. I have not actually measured how long it takes to beat the game, I know people who attempted it for days and I also know people who did it in a matter of hours. However the fact that you have the four difficulty levels to choose from, that should keep those who think that easy is a joke still interested. And as I mentioned previously as well the enemies are completely random, so that adds a level of surprise each time you play.

Obviously a world isn't a singular level because as you said there are 4 worlds to the game. I'm guessing that each world is divided into levels? So how big are we talking about? Is this game going to be over in a couple hours lets say or is it really going to take time to complete. -Original Message- From: gamers-boun...@audyssey.org [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of Philip Bennefall Sent: 11 November 2009 13:02 To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Blastbay Studios - upcoming sidescroller Hi Michael, There are certainly bonus items, however they are completely randomized and it so happened that none fell in that particular game round. The actual recording that I made when creating this trailer is a lot longer and there were items falling there, but I had to edit it down as to not make it too large and unmanageable. There are also a few bonus levels throughout the game that feature tons of bonus items, so there are plenty to be found.

Hi Allan, Below are some fixes for the sapi5 voices. I know that you tried the first one, but I hope that one of the other fixes might help. The first thing that I would try would be the DelUserLex.exe file that you can find on my free windows sapi5 text to speech games page, as well as on the GW Micro and Freedom Scientific sites. It is a strange file in that it doesn't say or seem to do anything, but it did fix my sapi5 voices. Here is another fix that I was told about. Go to c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Speech Then, press enter on Sapisvr.exe. It won't say anything, but it should correct the control panel entries for Sapi. Another thing that you can do is to use the Windows XP restore feature to restore your computer back to a date when the voices were working. And then there is to use your Windows XP cd to repair the entire sapi5 text to speech engine. you can download (SpeechSDK51MSM.exe). which contains all of the Microsoft Sapi voices available for Windows XP from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=5e86ec97-40a7-453f-b0ee-6583171b4530&displaylang=en HTH BFN Jim Check my web site for my free blind accessible pc dos and windows games. j...@kitchensinc.net http://www.kitchensinc.net (440) 286-6920 Chardon Ohio USA --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

The sounds are great, and I like the idea of jumping attacks and combos on the various enemies. I also am amused by the intro scene, I hope there are similar intermissions throughout the game. Just one question. Is the game all left/right scrolling on one level? I did notice jumping of pits and significant attacks from all sides, - but actual progress through the levels all seemed streight left/right in arcade style similar to Superliam. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Help!
Hi Jim, WEll, I am up to the window restore feature, the previous two things didn't work. I was hoping you or someone could run me thru how to do this restore. The instructions I got was about doing a last known good save, but I am not sure jaws will help with it. The instructions say to use the F8 key during the boot up which didn't sound doable without some sighted help. Thanks for any help in this.

Hi Allan, Below are some fixes for the sapi5 voices. I know that you tried the first one, but I hope that one of the other fixes might help. The first thing that I would try would be the DelUserLex.exe file that you can find on my free windows sapi5 text to speech games page, as well as on the GW Micro and Freedom Scientific sites. It is a strange file in that it doesn't say or seem to do anything, but it did fix my sapi5 voices. Here is another fix that I was told about. Go to c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Speech Then, press enter on Sapisvr.exe. It won't say anything, but it should correct the control panel entries for Sapi. Another thing that you can do is to use the Windows XP restore feature to restore your computer back to a date when the voices were working. And then there is to use your Windows XP cd to repair the entire sapi5 text to speech engine. you can download (SpeechSDK51MSM.exe). which contains all of the Microsoft Sapi voices available for Windows XP from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=5e86ec97-40a7-453f-b0ee-6583171b4530&displaylang=en HTH BFN Jim Check my web site for my free blind accessible pc dos and windows games. j...@kitchensinc.net http://www.kitchensinc.net (440) 286-6920 Chardon Ohio USA --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Blastbay Studios - upcoming sidescroller
Hi Milos, Yes, there will certainly be a demo. The program is unlockable with a name and key, which in my opinion is better than the product ID and unlock key approach. The demo will feature two levels from the game, the jungle world level 1 and the cave world level 1. That way you get to see a little more of the game than if you only had the jungle world levels 1 and 2. You are able to play on all difficulty levels in the demo as well, so you can really get a feel for how things escalate in terms of challenge.

Hello there, I will primarily offer PayPal as a method of payment, as it allows you to pay both with and without a PayPal account.

Re: [Audyssey] Future of accessible games
Hi Charles, In my personal opinion a really good game has elements of all three. First, a good game needs a decent plot, interesting characters, and an interesting underlying quest otherwise there is nothing to capture the game's imagination and interest to try the game. Second, the game has to be fun and challenging enough to maintain and hold the game's interest in the game. Lastly adding high quality sound effects and music adds to the games over all ambiance. Good sounds should add a bit of realism to the virtual world, and good music should set the mood. I know that you and several others have stated that you really don't have any big interest in music in games because you turn it off. For me, though, adding music to a game does a lot to improve the games over all ambiance and mood. In some cases like the Tomb Raider games there are plenty of people, myself included, that feel the game's soundtrack is as important and of interest as the game itself. I've wripped a number of Tomb Raider music tracks myself and loaded them on my mp3 player for casual listening. I know when I create a game I think of it as a sort of interactive movie. That's probably why FPS apeals to me as it is much more realistic than other styles of games. Since I think of it as a movie I like to add drama such as music, cd quality sound effects, and a big movie type plot. I'd even do cutscenes if i could afford them. Charles Rivard wrote: To me, the plot and the way a game is played is more important than how it sounds, to a point. For example, and this is strictly a personal opinion, a game can be one of the best games on the market as far as content, but has lousy sounding music. It doesn't matter to me, because I usually play games with no music because I like to concentrate more on the game. Then again, if the sounds of the action or the results of my character manipulation are not good, it would detract from my enjoyment of the game. If Mota's game sounds were sounding as though they were being played through a tiny transistor radio with low batteries or poor reception rather than how they currently do, I would not like the game nearly as much as I do, even though it is a great game as it is, and I know it will be even better when distributed. --- In God we trust! --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Future of accessible games
I tend to aggree Thomas. In fact when I was in High School my dad used to download lont of game soundtracks in Midi format and put them on my computer. Particular favorites were the Castlevania and Final Fantasy games. Granted some game music MIDI files can be so off the mark it makes you want to cry, but then there are some that are near perfect renditions.

That way you get to see a little more of the game than if you only had the jungle world levels 1 and 2.

The game contains four worlds with three levels in each, a few bonus rounds as well as a grand finale which is an intense boss battle. All the enemies are dynamic so there's lots of replay value there, and you also have four difficulty levels to choose from ranging from easy to insane.

Re: [Audyssey] Future of accessible games
Hi Bryan, Yeah, some of those classic Nintendo games like Double Dragon, Castlevania, Megaman, etc had some really cool music traks. Just about everyone remembers the Super Mario Brothers tune, and it is an absolute classic in terms of game music. The Legend of Zelda was another one that had extremely good music that never quite gets old no matter how many times it is played. Game music may not be on the top 40 hits for the week, but some game themes are hard to forget once you hear them. Bryan Peterson wrote: I tend to aggree Thomas.

At this time there are no other enemies that have special properties like that, however they are different in their characteristics and so require a fair amount of strategy; especially when grouped together with others. The bears, for example, are very strong and take a lot of damage per hit but are incredibly slow. This means that your best bet is to fire at them from a distance if you can and not get them too close to you, especially if the bear is not alone.

Re: [Audyssey] need help with a sound issue
Hi Sylvester, When you extract the DirectX setup files to your hard drive it should create a file called dxsetup.exe in your temp directory. If you click on dxsetup.exe it should run the DirectX upgrade. I get this question so often I think when I put up the latest DirectX upgrade I'll extract the file, rename dxsetup.exe to setup.exe, and just zip the setup so it is easier for people. P.S. What version of Windows are you running? The reason I ask is because the version of DirectX I have on my site isn't the latest, and should not be installed on Windows 7. Smile.

First, a good game needs a decent plot, interesting characters, and an interesting underlying quest otherwise there is nothing to capture the game's imagination and interest to try the game. Second, the game has to be fun and challenging enough to maintain and hold the game's interest in the game. Lastly adding high quality sound effects and music adds to the games over all ambiance. Good sounds should add a bit of realism to the virtual world, and good music should set the mood. I know that you and several others have stated that you really don't have any big interest in music in games because you turn it off. For me, though, adding music to a game does a lot to improve the games over all ambiance and mood. In some cases like the Tomb Raider games there are plenty of people, myself included, that feel the game's soundtrack is as important and of interest as the game itself. I've wripped a number of Tomb Raider music tracks myself and loaded them on my mp3 player for casual listening. I know when I create a game I think of it as a sort of interactive movie. That's probably why FPS apeals to me as it is much more realistic than other styles of games. Since I think of it as a movie I like to add drama such as music, cd quality sound effects, and a big movie type plot. I'd even do cutscenes if i could afford them. Charles Rivard wrote: To me, the plot and the way a game is played is more important than how it sounds, to a point. For example, and this is strictly a personal opinion, a game can be one of the best games on the market as far as content, but has lousy sounding music. It doesn't matter to me, because I usually play games with no music because I like to concentrate more on the game. Then again, if the sounds of the action or the results of my character manipulation are not good, it would detract from my enjoyment of the game. If Mota's game sounds were sounding as though they were being played through a tiny transistor radio with low batteries or poor reception rather than how they currently do, I would not like the game nearly as much as I do, even though it is a great game as it is, and I know it will be even better when distributed. --- In God we trust! --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Blastbay Studios - upcoming sidescroller
Going on the mp3 it does sound quite fun and fast paced. Love the sound effects that I heard, wasn't quite so blown away with the music in terms of it enhancing atmospherics but that's just a personal taste thing, that's kinda the purpose music in games serves to my mind. My only initial thought was the price point. I mean even with randomised enemies and items, this still seems like more of a novelty title, and surely isn't going to have the replay value of MOTA, which will only be a mere $5 more, $10 I guess if it's in time for Christmas. I suppose what I'm getting at is that I doubt many people will be able to afford both at this time of year, definitely include the International buyers in that bunch seeing as the Dollar is pretty strong currently. With only a name and a key required to unlock the game the sad truth is that it'll be floating about as a freebie before you know it. I'm not saying that's right and I wouldn't leach a free copy personally, just taking the realistic view. Of course, it's not my place in the slightest to advise you how to set your prices Philip, just musing outloud in case it gives you or anyone else planning to release anything this close to Christmas food for thought. Cheers, looking forward to the playable demo. Scott On 11/11/09, peter Mahach wrote: > on the note of weapons is the club and sling the only weapons available to > you? aren't there guns or such?

[Audyssey] A question about turn-based combat in Entombed
Hi Folks, Had some hardcore preparation to be done last night, so I did what any good procrastinator would do, downloaded Entombed and ended up running on 3 hours sleep and practically no preparation today. I really should get control over my gaming lol. Anyway, this is my first foray into the world of roleplay strategy type stuff, and so far I'm totally addicted. The thing that puzzled me though was that whenever I encounter an enemy or a group of them, I'd check the battle timeline, and couldn't really spot the logic that determines it each time. Plus I'm reasonably sure that sometimes it seemed much longer than others until it was my turn again. Of course this could be because it was stupid O'clock and I was impatient to get on with rat smiting, but if someone could explain the logic of turn-based I'd really appreciate it, think I'd have a better grasp of strategies for each situation then.

Re: [Audyssey] A question about turn-based combat in Entombed
the battle timeline is set according to speed. faster enemies go first at the end o the slowest ones such as ogres. so let's say there are 4 enemies. lightning joe fastest, killer eddie fast, crack smasher (you the player) and death truck slowest. they'd go in this order, first lightning, then eddie, then you, and then truck. hth and happy killing/questing what ever. - Original Message - From: "Scott Chesworth" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Wednesday, November 11, 2009 7:14 PM Subject: [Audyssey] A question about turn-based combat in Entombed Hi Folks, Had some hardcore preparation to be done last night, so I did what any good procrastinator would do, downloaded Entombed and ended up running on 3 hours sleep and practically no preparation today.

Re: [Audyssey] A question about turn-based combat in Entombed
Hi. the battle timeline is worked out on the relative speed at which everyone can attack, thus if your fighting something fast you might not get as many hits in. also, if you use abilities in combat like flurry or hide, you have to wait longer for your next turn.

Re: [Audyssey] Future of accessible games
That's the case with a lot of the older Final Fantasy games. The quality started to take a dip at FF7 as far as I'm concerned but titles 1 through 6 had scores that would stick in my mind for weeks on end. The same was true of games like Battle of Olympus, Crystalis, Blaster Master and the StarTropics games. Homer: Hey, uh, could you go across the street and get me a slice of pizza? Vender: No pizza.

Just about everyone remembers the Super Mario Brothers tune, and it is an absolute classic in terms of game music. The Legend of Zelda was another one that had extremely good music that never quite gets old no matter how many times it is played. Game music may not be on the top 40 hits for the week, but some game themes are hard to forget once you hear them. Bryan Peterson wrote: I tend to aggree Thomas.

Re: [Audyssey] Blastbay Studios - upcoming sidescroller
curious: is there much difference between this game and something like Super Liam? I was definitely hoping for some vertical movement. I also hope it's worth the purchase price since it is a bit steep, and the game at least from the demo sounds quite simple and like something I could beat in a couple hours. reminds me of tarzan junior with better sound effects and movements.

The sounds are great, and I like the idea of jumping attacks and combos on the various enemies. I also am amused by the intro scene, I hope there are similar intermissions throughout the game. Just one question. Is the game all left/right scrolling on one level? I did notice jumping of pits and significant attacks from all sides, - but actual progress through the levels all seemed streight left/right in arcade style similar to Superliam. Beware the Grue!

I intend to release this game in about a week, and thought I'd post a little sneak preview for you to enjoy. The game contains four worlds with three levels in each, a few bonus rounds as well as a grand finale which is an intense boss battle. All the enemies are dynamic so there's lots of replay value there, and you also have four difficulty levels to choose from ranging from easy to insane.

The program is unlockable with a name and key, which in my opinion is better than the product ID and unlock key approach. The demo will feature two levels from the game, the jungle world level 1 and the cave world level 1. That way you get to see a little more of the game than if you only had the jungle world levels 1 and 2.

Love the sound effects that I heard, wasn't quite so blown away with the music in terms of it enhancing atmospherics but that's just a personal taste thing, that's kinda the purpose music in games serves to my mind. My only initial thought was the price point. I mean even with randomised enemies and items, this still seems like more of a novelty title, and surely isn't going to have the replay value of MOTA, which will only be a mere $5 more, $10 I guess if it's in time for Christmas. I suppose what I'm getting at is that I doubt many people will be able to afford both at this time of year, definitely include the International buyers in that bunch seeing as the Dollar is pretty strong currently. With only a name and a key required to unlock the game the sad truth is that it'll be floating about as a freebie before you know it. I'm not saying that's right and I wouldn't leach a free copy personally, just taking the realistic view.

Re: [Audyssey] Blastbay Studios - upcoming sidescroller
Well on the movement front i'LL AGREE, AND i ADMIT i WAS HOPING FOR A MORE SERIOUS SIDE SCROLLER. Then again, unlike either tj or superliam, this does feature random appearing enemies and items. Whether this will be enough to keep the game fresh isn't something anyone can say before the game is released. I will say though, that one thing which impressed me in Tj was the differences in the difficulty modes. I finished easy on the first day I bought the game, - normal took me far longer (and more slingshot use), and there are bits of hard I've never completed yet. Therefore, I'll reserve judgement on the game length until I've got an idea of this. To philip, one question. Are there any unlockables, extra endings or other content to play for in the game? Do you for instance get better endings with finishing each diffficu8lty? Sinse the game's audio seems to be very high quality, I'd be pleased if this was offered as a reward to players for completing harder challenges in the game. Beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Blastbay Studios - upcoming sidescroller
Hi Dark, If you enjoyed the differences between the difficulty levels in Tj, you will not be disappointed with this. I would go as far as saying that Tj is not even comparable, not only because of the inferior sound quality but also because of the poor performance. Heck of a difference between Java Script and C++... As for different endings depending on difficulty levels, that's a good idea; i'll go record some. I'll make it so that you get a cheat code file when you beat the game, however you are able to use the cheat codes if you know them before having completed the game; at least that's the case at this time.

Re: [Audyssey] Blastbay Studios - upcoming sidescroller
Hi. Sounds good. I'd personally love to see more unlockables, bits of audio, extra endings, cheat codes or whatever in audio games. It's a great way to stick extra challenge into a game and expand the arcade game concept further, and to actually give players both a reward and incentive to play the game on harder difficulties, or in harder ways, for instance only using a single weapon. The only audio game which has really used unlockables extensively thus far is Judgement day with the trophies, which is a shame. I'm not sure how hard programming unlockable content or specific challenges, - such as completing the game only using the club weapon, or complete it under a certain time limit would be, but if possible it's a feature I'd very much like to see implemented.

Re: [Audyssey] Blastbay Studios - upcoming sidescroller
Hi Dark, With 97 % of the game already completed I have about 6 or 7 days where I'll be doing little tweaks, and this is a great time for me to add the kind of things that you mention. I will, for instance, have different game over scenes depending on how you die; whether you fall down a pit or in what world you are killed etc. I have the house to myself for two days so with the windows shut, I can pretty much make as freaky and loud noises as I please which should work well for these extra scenes without having to worry about scaring the neighbours. The difficult thing is not really to program these things, it's to come up with ideas for what to do if the user completes the particular task.

Hi Charles, Personally as a gamer I enjoy using cheats sometimes, particularly if I've already beaten the game and want to abuse it a little.

There are alsorts of possible tasks, kkilling a certain number of enemies of a given type, being too fast or too slow, using a particular weapon all the time, or significantly etc. This could also have people playing the game in a different style to earn rewards, such as doing everything close range to get a club specific ending, which is always good.

Re: [Audyssey] why do cheat codes exist?
i personally use cheat codes more in mainstream games than in audio games, and usually either to compensate for a sight problem, or lack of a particular feature. I for instance use level select or skip codes in many Snes games to serve the function that passwords and saves serve later, ie, letting me start from the same level i died on. I've never done this in an audio game though, sinse audiogames are usually either pre-built with save features, or so short as to make them unnecessary. In mainstream games I also sometimes use unlimited time cheats because it takes longer to view the screen for me, --- but again, this doesn't apply in audio games. I sometimes like cheat weapon codes for novelty, especially when that weapon is a weerd one which doesn't appear in the game, though I usually complete the game streight first, and I prefer such weapon codes to be given as a secret after I've completed the game normally like the flamethrower in pipe2. I haven't met an audio game that I've actively desired a cheat for, sinse most have sufficiently balanced difficulty and saving features for me not to want one, though I enjoy them as an ulockable reward or something to play with later on. The only time I'd say cheats are a really bad thing, is when people just put in an infinite lives or energy cheat and skim right through from end to end, then shelve the game and never play it again. Cheat codes however, are good for people who are frustrated with a given game and when the choice is cheat or forget it, cheating is better. I've done that myself in both mainstream games and some interactive fiction titles with impossible puzles. Just my thoughts here, anyone is free to disagree. Beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Blastbay Studios - upcoming sidescroller
Hi Yohandy, At this time there is only a local top ten, however I'll definitely add online score posting; the question is just when. It'll either be during this tweak week that I have ahead of me where I just add little bits and pieces, or it will be together with a whole bunch of upgrades for a 1.1 release. Right now I'm mainly concentrating on adding little secrets, extra audio clips, that sort of thing.

Re: [Audyssey] why do cheat codes exist?
Hi, Cheat codes are fun, pure and simple. However, they are a diffrent kind of fun. I would compare the "purist" method of play versus the "cheat" type of play like this. In the first, you are playing a game of chess against an intelligent equal, in the second, you are playing chess against a monkey. The first game is serious, challenges your skills, causes you to learn an improve. When you win, if you win, you feel satisfied in the victory. Then there is the monkey game. You turn your pawn into a tank, and destroy the monkeys rooks with a photon torpedo. The monkey don't care, and neither do you. No seriousness, no brain drain, no putting way too much effort and time into what amounts to a bit of electricity pushing around little bits of electronic nothingness. You flameThrower the monkeys queen, he don't care, he's a monkey, and you don't care, cause you got this awesome flameThrower and you are blowing those monkeys pieces to kingdom come!! It is all fun, just diffrent. So I like cheat codes. I don't look down on anyone who does use cheat codes because if they are willing to download it, or buy it, they are more then entitled to play the heck out of that game anyway they please without me judging them. They aren't worse players or people for it, they aren't better, just diffrent. That is the crux. Cheat codes are not an insight into a persons moral quality or life attitude. It is just a game, they are just getting some enjoyment until they have to go back to life, and the world keeps spinning. Besides...I like monkeys.

Re: [Audyssey] why do cheat codes exist?
Hi Charles, That's a good question. As most people know I don't use cheat codes for serious gaming, but I sometimes do if the mood strikes. I am most often likely to use a cheat code or codes when I'm in a really bad mood. Like if I just want to get into a game and go on a blind rampage blowing up everyone and everything in site. Many games have an invincibility cheat so you can do anything in the game and not lose health or get damaged by it. That basically gives the player godlike powers and abilitys. Here is a case in point. Back before I lost my sight I use to play a game called Star Wars Dark Forces. It is basically about a former Imperial officer who has joined the Rebbel Alliance, and ends up carrying out several missions. As the plot unfolds you discover the Empire is creating a new type of storm trooper called the dark troopers. When playing the game normally the dark troopers are serious foes to kill. However, if you use the invincibility cheat it was sort of funny marching right through the heart of the Imperial base blowing up everyone and everything in site. When the dark troopers would attack you could fight an entire army of them, not take damage, and pretty much take your time killing each one of them very very slowly. Basically, you were like a god doing what you pleased when you pleased, and the Empire's crack comandos couldn't touch you. It was especially funny dropping a thermal detonator, and sitting right on it when it exploded. All of the troopers would blow up, Kyle would yell, but he was still there undamaged while everything else in the room is blown to pieces. Basically, I did it for kicks, but I never took the game seriously as I did it though. Charles Rivard wrote: I know that programmers and testers use cheat codes so that they can test certain aspects of games before they are sold or given to the public, but why do you, as a gamer, use them? After all, it's cheating. I ask this to see what answers I get. --- In God we trust! --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

If someone does soon though, hold that thought, rumour has it SO Solid Crew are reforming, you surely won't find much worse music to pump their ears with than that.

I also used to use the invinsibility cheats to quell rage, on particularly grim days I might've done the same thing during the one on one duals in Jedi Knight just for the luxury of it lol. I confess, I've never used a cheat in an audio game yet. This is mainly due to a lack of knowledge. where can I find such things?

[Audyssey] Alocating skill points in Entombed
Hi all, Unless the novelty wears off of this awesome game in the next couple of days, I'll be joining the Entombed discussion list and bugging them with my newbish questions, but for now... How do I alocate skill points? I hit c, tab to my desired character, they might have 8 skill points to alocate for example so I pick a skill I want to increase, hit enter on it, then scroll back to confirm changes and get told that my changes have been saved. But when I look under skills, my character is still at level 1 for that skill and when I go back to alocate skill points I'll still have the same amount of points to be alocated.
