Re: [Audyssey] WWE Superslam
Sounds very cool - and the sort of game you could easily spend quite a bit of time playing sometimes. Stay well Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA '...fate had broken his body, but not his spirit...' - Original Message --- Subject: [Audyssey] WWE Superslam From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com Date: Sun, 4 Sep 2011 19:47:29 -0400 To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Hi everyone, As many of you might remember for the last couple of months or so I've been working on a text-based wrestling game named WWE: Superslam. Its similar to the old Dos Piledriver game in concept, but I hope to improve upon that design as I go along. Anyway, Tonight I was testing the game and had a very cool wrestling match I'd like to share with you all. It was a WWE Diva's match between Kelly Kelly and Beth Phoenix. It was based on their title match at Summer Slam, but actually better as I was playing it via the game. The game started out with me, playing as Kelly Kelly, and I thought I'd try and soften Beth Phoenix up with some punches, kicks, and take her down to the matt with some takedown moves like leg sweeps or an arm drag. Unfortunately, for me Beth Phoenix managed to get the upper hand and started handing Kelly Kelly's butt to her. Beth drove a knee lift into Kelly's face, and then dropped her to the mat with a spinning powerbomb. From there she basically tossed Kelly Kelly around the ring like a rag doll with a series of slams, suplexes, and threw in a few extra kicks and punches here and there for good measure. Realising I'm like getting nowhere real quick I decided to take a page out of Eve Torres's playbook and go for some high risk arial moves. As soon as Kelly manages to escape the beating Beth is giving her I climb up onto the second rope, and perform a springboard moonsault. Kelly Kelly moonsault's off the second rope and hits Beth Phoenix like a cruise missile and Beth crashes to the matt. I then catch Beth Phoenix in Kelly Kelly's classic victory roll, and pin her for the three count. That's how the Glamazon crashed and burned. What do you think about that match, eh?

Hi Tom. I've not seen that title match you mentioned, but that one sounds awsome! Pluss from a game perspective I like the idea that changing tactics can actually affect the game sinse as I've said, it's reactive gameplay which for me is extremely interesting, and an alteration in tactics having such a massive impact (a moonsalt full of impact no less), is just the sort of thing I'd be interested to see.

Re: [Audyssey] I beat Ausem Homer!!!
Hi alfredo. Nope, a chainsaw works for a bit and then your on your own again and have to jump the barrels. The best way I found was to keep running and jump when ther barrels were closer to the central left of the sterio field, - about at my left eye's position in front of me. If your running you can get a litle more clearence, if walking a litle less, but generally the barrels do have to be relatively close to center. Once I'd got this distance sorted, it was simply a case of practicing and a litle luck, also being familiar with how close I could get to each barrel after landing. Unfortunately that's the only way through. On the pluss side I think level 1 is thus far the hardest level in the game, evenl level 6 is easier imho. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] I beat Ausem Homer!!!
Hi Alfredo, No, the chainsaw only runs for a specific amount of time and then it is gone. You can not pick it up again. And yes, although it is now harder because there are more barrels, if you make it through for awhile there is a second chainsaw. I'm not sure that I can write hints as to how to beat level 1. Other than keep running as you can jump the barrels easier while running. I could though send you an mp3 of me beating level 1. I have to say though, that the barrels were kind to me in that play. You know since they are random some times the level or parts of it are easier than other times.

Re: [Audyssey] Trivia version 2
Hi Shaun, Yep, I put version 1 of my trivia game engine up on my site back in October 2003. I should have done the text on the screen a long time ago. I still do not like doing text in VB6. I mean unless you drag and drop a text box and define fields and populate them etc, all you can do is scroll text top down. In dos Quick Basic and all of the dos Basics that I ever used you had a locate function to put text anywhere on the screen that you wished as well as making it any color that you wished. I imagine that one can do the same in VB6, but not just simply using such commands as locate and color. And then there is that when you did put text on the screen in dos, all dos screen readers would automatically speak it if you wanted them to. That is, you could put text on the screen and not have it spoken if you wished. BTW the wintriv2.exe install contains all 11 wintgf ad on files.

Re: [Audyssey] Castaways: thoughts on winning mission 3 on normal.
The merchant cart is actually a way to throw balance out of the window, yes. Once someone jumps in to multiplayer co-op mode, there is little sense even trying to keep things balanced and fair simply because there is no way to stop someone from getting an unfair advantage if that is their goal. For example you could have a person could save their game, send everything they own to you, and then load their saved game so they didn't end up losing anything but you gained so much. Because of the way the co-op works, I'm reluctant to even attempt balancing it. In the additional multiplayer modes, more focus is going in to making them fair. Security will be in place, and knowing it is fair will be a big reason many people will play and enjoy the new modes. Like people modifying their saved game files to gain resources, or people hunting for the hidden cheat code in the game, multiplayer co-op doesn't actually harm anyone else if you cheat so I'm not worried about it. There is no true competition between the players. In the other modes there will be harm if people cheat, so I will take steps to prevent it. I'm considering making cavalry a bit stronger and faster to make up for their production requirements, though I'm not completely positive on that yet. Chris, the bug with troops has been fixed in version 2.1. If you were actually using version 2.1 when this bug happened, please let me know lol! My first thought was how easy this turned out to be. Now, let me unpack this a bit because there are several factors that went into the ease of my victory, which was pretty much a foregone conclusion at about six catapults. The trading facilities are extremely powerful. Having received massive gifts near the early midgame that allowed me to concentrate on military unit production, I was easily able to fend off the raiders, even once my own offensive raiding became of little utility. I didn't even need a full complement of soldier types, due I think to some clever wall placements. But I digress. The merchant cart is I think, too powerful and unbalances the game. I'm not suggesting its removal or neutering, it's too cool, but I think some balancing factors may need to be put in place. These could include bandits that randomly attack and take the supplies. This would force the merchant to send along a military escort, which would be gone as long as the merchant and might be killed along with him or her during the journey there and back. Having the transfer not be a sure thing and forcing you to escort it, thus depriving yourself of military forces would balance this out nicely. The invaders are slow, even cavalry. I adopted the strategy of placing my settlement near one map edge, beginning near one corner. This had the effect of making most attacks come from very far away, giving me plenty of time to deal with them even with under strength forces. I don't know if they move faster on hard, but on normal, they never got even close to my settlement, even when my settlement stretched from J6 through something like T10 and P15. If walls do, as I suspect, act like guard towers, this is all the more true. It seems as though maintaining a peasant population roughly 25% of your adult population throughout the game results in sufficient work getting done. This means you are going to build your military slowly, but it also means you aren't going to starve for want of people to carry food to the tavern. Building cavalry is annoying. With 3 wheat farms in production, I had to close both my mill and my animal farm when I wanted to raise horses. At 15 wheat per horse, it takes longer to raise cavalry than even knights, which are the other slow type. From a realism standpoint I agree with this, but for game balance, given the relative fragility of cavalry vs. other types, it feels a little unbalanced. Beware what I think is a large bug. I sent 4 rangers and 4 pikemen to another player. I should have still had six rangers and five pikemen when all was said and done, but I lost all of them. The other player only received the intended reinforcements. Had this happened earlier in my game, it would have done me in. So now I've beaten all the missions on normal, so I'll go back and play them on hard.

Re: [Audyssey] Awesome HOmer: level 4 difficulty and hints?
Hi the level works like this. You are skeeing down a mountain. You have to pass the hawk and the dove. The hawk is on the left and the dove is on the right. Hold down control and press the left arrow key until you hear the hawk stop and when you hear the second one hit the right arrow key. You are going to keep doing that until the level ends. Keep the control key held down and the shift key will slow you down with a snow plow. - Original Message - From: Alfredo_The_Music_maker birdlover2...@hotmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Monday, September 05, 2011 6:45 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Awesome HOmer: level 4 difficulty and hints?

Hi Alfredo.

Left and right to steer, left ctrl to speed up, shift to snow plow (though myself I keep my finger on left control all the time).

Re: [Audyssey] WWE Superslam
Hi Dark, Yeah, that was in fact a bit of luck on my part. I thought when I went for the springboard moonsault that Beth Phoenix would move out of the way and Kelly Kelly would just splash into the matt, serious screw up there, or that I'd knock Beth down, but not be able to capatalize on the move. As it happened Beth was stunned long enough to go for a victory roll and pin her to the mat for a full three count. Now, one thing I'd like to do here is work on the general AI system to play to an opponent's strengths. That is if a wrestler is good in a skill set to tend to favor those moves over other less skilled moves. For instance, Beth Phoenix is a strong female wrestler and tends to favor powerhouse moves such as powerbombs, various bodyslams, and suplexes. In fact, her finisher is the Glam Slam which is basically just a press slam. Now, someone like Kelly Kelly is small and light. She's almost 50 pounds lighter than Beth Phoenix, and she usually does well with hit and runn attacks such as small punches, spin kicks, missile dropkicks, etc. Also her small size and stature makes her more naturally built for arial type moves like flying crossbody attacks, springboard moonsaults, etc. You have to play to a performers strengths if you want to win a match.

Dark. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Monday, September 05, 2011 12:47 AM Subject: [Audyssey] WWE Superslam Hi everyone, As many of you might remember for the last couple of months or so I've been working on a text-based wrestling game named WWE: Superslam. Its similar to the old Dos Piledriver game in concept, but I hope to improve upon that design as I go along. Anyway, Tonight I was testing the game and had a very cool wrestling match I'd like to share with you all. It was a WWE Diva's match between Kelly Kelly and Beth Phoenix. It was based on their title match at Summer Slam, but actually better as I was playing it via the game. The game started out with me, playing as Kelly Kelly, and I thought I'd try and soften Beth Phoenix up with some punches, kicks, and take her down to the matt with some takedown moves like leg sweeps or an arm drag. Unfortunately, for me Beth Phoenix managed to get the upper hand and started handing Kelly Kelly's butt to her. Beth drove a knee lift into Kelly's face, and then dropped her to the mat with a spinning powerbomb. From there she basically tossed Kelly Kelly around the ring like a rag doll with a series of slams, suplexes, and threw in a few extra kicks and punches here and there for good measure. Realising I'm like getting nowhere real quick I decided to take a page out of Eve Torres's playbook and go for some high risk arial moves. As soon as Kelly manages to escape the beating Beth is giving her I climb up onto the second rope, and perform a springboard moonsault. Kelly Kelly moonsault's off the second rope and hits Beth Phoenix like a cruise missile and Beth crashes to the matt. I then catch Beth Phoenix in Kelly Kelly's classic victory roll, and pin her for the three count. That's how the Glamazon crashed and burned. What do you think about that match, eh?

Re: [Audyssey] WWE Superslam
I can't wait to see this game. My son and me are real big wwe fans. No demo out yet Thomas? -Original Message- From: gamers-boun...@audyssey.org [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of Thomas Ward Sent: Monday, September 05, 2011 10:53 AM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] WWE Superslam Hi Dark, Yeah, that was in fact a bit of luck on my part. I thought when I went for the springboard moonsault that Beth Phoenix would move out of the way and Kelly Kelly would just splash into the matt, serious screw up there, or that I'd knock Beth down, but not be able to capatalize on the move. As it happened Beth was stunned long enough to go for a victory roll and pin her to the mat for a full three count. Now, one thing I'd like to do here is work on the general AI system to play to an opponent's strengths. That is if a wrestler is good in a skill set to tend to favor those moves over other less skilled moves. For instance, Beth Phoenix is a strong female wrestler and tends to favor powerhouse moves such as powerbombs, various bodyslams, and suplexes. In fact, her finisher is the Glam Slam which is basically just a press slam. Now, someone like Kelly Kelly is small and light. She's almost 50 pounds lighter than Beth Phoenix, and she usually does well with hit and runn attacks such as small punches, spin kicks, missile dropkicks, etc. Also her small size and stature makes her more naturally built for arial type moves like flying crossbody attacks, springboard moonsaults, etc. You have to play to a performers strengths if you want to win a match.

Re: [Audyssey] WWE Superslam
Hi Mike, No, not yet. There is still a lot of work to be done. For one thing I still need to finish adding WWE superstars to the database. At the moment I've only added about 14 Diva's to the female roster, and haven't even started adding male superstar's like Jon Cena, CM Punk, Randy Orton, etc to the male database. Which obviously needs to be done before any kind of public release. Another thing that needs to be done is to add finishing moves like the RKO, Attitude Adjustment, GTS, etc to the game. That way each superstar will be able to perform his or her finisher before attempting to pin the opponent. At the moment the game is restricted to general moves which is ok, but it is much more fun if you are playing say Randy Orton and can pull off an RKO for a quick stun and pin.

Re: [Audyssey] Orogon trale online game
Thanks. It is a cool game to waste the time away with. Even though it has no sound effects. At least it is blind friendly. I got as far as roughly 650 to 700 miles out of the 2,040 mile long trip.

[Audyssey] Castaways: 2.1 idle workers tweak.
First of all, I love the concept behind listing the idle workers. Could you pull out the ailing and mothers from the number though as it's confusing to see two idle workers but not find the idle category because they're both mothers. I think we know that mothers and ailing are idle. Trying my first hard mode game and man, 10 is hard to start out with. Those extra two workers make a much bigger difference than you'd think.
