[Audyssey] Curiosity question regarding Dyna Man
Hi folks, Well after about two years or so of debating with myself I finally got around to buying myself a copy of Dyna Man. I've always found the ambient sounds to be almost as enriching as Monkey Business, though obviously in a far, far different theme. I did have one question that's been on my mind for a while now. Is the voice on the main menu a synthetic voice, and if so what is it? I don't believe it's ATT Charles because I've heard samples of him and the Dyna Man voice doesn't sound like him. It does't sound nearly so choppy for one thing. It actually sounds like Chrostopher Lee from Lord of te Rings, although I doubt any Audio Game dev would have the kind of money he'd be likely to ask for in exchange for lending his voice to a game. So I'm curious what voice that is on the menu. If everyone cared and nobody cried If everyone loved and nobody lied If everyone shared and swallowed their pride Then we'd see the day when nobody died.

Re: [Audyssey] sounds totally unnecessary
Hi. How about when someone uses their key they have to register that computer with you if the hardware id is different than previous authorizations. This says that I can register on this laptop. I have to register on the website too, now you can look and see that my user name has one comp registered. next, I authorize it on my desktop. I must be on the internet again, after I supply my user name and my password, I'm connected to the website again and since the registration notices my hardware id is different than what it is up on the website, I'm registered again. This way, maybe if you can grab the right information you can do something about piracy because in order to work it you'd have to have a load of registrations for one user names, could limit it to like 4 or 5 per person too, and if they run out then they've got to come asking you to redo their counts. It won't work if they're not on the internet. Everyone has internet now adays, if not, they've got to call you so you can register for them and give them this really wicked long string they've got to type in some obscure field and register it that way, never happen since they're sure to have internet somewhere? They downloaded the game somehow right? the problem is you can crack jaws which is similar to that, so guess that won't help a whole lot, but maybe it won't be a easy.

[Audyssey] Cthulhu nation accessibility assistance!
Greetings. Well, if people remember the Cthulhu nation game, I've been looking into it and contacting the admins, whoI will say are being incredibly nice about access related issues (read their mail at the bottom of this). I've had a brief look at the game, and it appears to function similar to Gothador, with a map of 9 squares and coordinates, and the player moving betwene them via clicking the coordinate lables, I don't believe, however all necessary information for the map is contained merely in text (I've told the admins about this). to view stats, inventory etc it's necessary to click on some game gif immages (and read the link text), and I haven't managed to work out the inventory and equipping system at all yet (again, I've contacted the admins of the game reguarding this). At the moment I'm horribly busy rehearsing for a production, and anyway there's only one of me, so I'd really appreciate it if some other people could put their heads together over this, look into Cthulhu nation and make access related suggestions to the admins, especially people who know more about web design and screen reader access than I do. Any help would be much appreciated, --- by me and by future Vi players of this game. Beware the Cthu! Dark. - Original Message - From: six To: Dark ; vampraist Sent: Friday, February 01, 2008 11:56 PM Subject: Re: cthulhu nation accessibility Hi Luke, Thanks for getting in touch. To be honest, we have never had a request like this before, and it never even entered our heads. But that's just the ignorance on our part! Having read your request a couple of times, we are still a little unclear as to what you would like us to actually consider to help you. From what we understand so far, you can read the text, but it is the images (for example the board tiles) that you have difficulty with? Further, to help with this, you would like to see some sort of pop-up text bos with a name or description of the tile, for example Watson's General Store for a shop, or Mountain Region for a landscape tile? You mention that you use a speech synthesizer to read the text. Again, this is a new area to us, and we would be interested to hear how you accomplish this, particularly with regard to the many text boxes and written explanations within Cthulhu Nation. With regard to the pop-up text for the graphics, how far ranging on this idea were you thinking? Just the board game tiles, or other areas as well? We would obviously have to look at the total requirements for setting up these text windows, and how much work would be involved. If it seemed fairly straight forward, this might not be an issue. Finally, how did you envisage this happening? Would it be a case of the cursor hovering over the tile to produce the pop-up, or would there be a different/better requirement for your needs? Thanks once again for your email, and we are indeed intrigued by your request. Let me know if what I have said is along the right conclusions, and possibly expand on your requests to help us further with this issue. Regards, Six (Cthulhu Nation Admin) Dark wrote: Hello. I was really interested to ffind out about the Cthulhu nation mmorp. Not only is having a game set in the lovecraft mythos a great idea, but also looking at the way the game works, quests and investigation seem to play a huge part in the game, rather than just constant pvp as in many of the mmorps I've seen, which is exellent. the only problem is, I am visually impared and use a speech synthesiser to read text on the internet. most of the in game text, character creation and viewing of stats and items etc is quite accessible to screen reading software, however it seems that the map, being entirely image based, is not. I was therefore wondering if you might considder adding text lables for the various map tyles, sinse this is (from what I see thus far), the only thing stopping visually impared people from enjoying (though if that is the right word when applied to lovecraft), Cthulhu nation. With all of the Lovecraft writings available online, and the game's emphasis on investigation and a rich back story, I think quite a lot of visually impared gamers would be incredibly interested in playing, so I very much hope you'll considder adding the appropriate lables. all the best, Luke.

No, there are instances that I have seen where for the case of humanity, I am looking at it from the perspective of the developing world where money is scarce, and, let us say, before NVDA and free screen readers, there were, let's call them needs, and there were questions of refused funding for such programs while a fellow blind comrade's livlihood was in peril because if he didn't have such software he couldn't get a job he needed to support his family, even though he was willing to work, some people were unable or unwilling to help out. I'm being cryptic, but I can still defend piracy. There are also instances of persons living in countries under US sanctions who, a certain blind person wanted to become a teacher, and, because he was not allowed to import screen reading programs, well, provisions had to be made.

I've always found the ambient sounds to be almost as enriching as Monkey Business, though obviously in a far, far different theme. I did have one question that's been on my mind for a while now. Is the voice on the main menu a synthetic voice, and if so what is it? I don't believe it's ATT Charles because I've heard samples of him and the Dyna Man voice doesn't sound like him. It does't sound nearly so choppy for one thing. It actually sounds like Chrostopher Lee from Lord of te Rings, although I doubt any Audio Game dev would have the kind of money he'd be likely to ask for in exchange for lending his voice to a game. So I'm curious what voice that is on the menu. If everyone cared and nobody cried If everyone loved and nobody lied If everyone shared and swallowed their pride Then we'd see the day when nobody died.

Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day
Hi Kuvvosh, Well, I do think reformatting your hard drive that often is a bit extreme, but I do think I have three suggestions that can help you. 1. Buy an extra computer. Use one as a test machine and the other as a day to day computer for everything else. 2. Buy a removable drive tray. These allow you to swop between several hard drives by pulling out the tray, (drawer,) that contains your master hard drive and inserting a new one. 3. Buy a drive selecter. This is a switch you install in your computer which allows you to switch between three different master hard drives in your computer.

So I've kind of just gave up on the games I've bought that required activation at the moment.

Also if you format your computer a lot, might want to consider on a Back-up Imaging system, that's what I'm using now to restore without having to lose safed info and stuff.

Hi Willem, Actually, I usually don't have a problem with the GMA product keys. I have reinstalled XP before, and have been able to reuse my license keys. If product activations is really a big problem for you you should invest in a drive copy software so you can image a clean install of XP, Vista, etc so you don't have to install everything from scratch.

Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day
Hi Michael, Quote On the face of it, piracy doesn't seem wrong because no physical goods are being taken. I think we're all still catching up to the new digital world we live in. We have a hard time seeing the physical consequences of the act and that has allowed piracy to become as pervasive as it has particularly with music. End quote Michael, I think you just hit the nail on the head. Back in my piracy cracking days I didn't see it as a crime, a sin, or even consider it steeling because no physical goods were taken. If you steel a friends music cd some physical object is taken, and your friend no longer has possession of that cd. However, with piracy though your friend gets to keep the original copy, and you can have a copy as well. You have in a sense cloned the master cd, and it is hard to see it as a crime because nothing physical was taken. There is no evident consequences for making a copy. It is easy to think, if some ritch musician or software company loses a few bucks so what. They are ritch I am not. I didn't steel anything from them. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day
Hi Oriol, I am not writing you to flame you or pick on you, but I do think your excuse for cracking is still a pretty lame excuse to crack and pirate. With a little time and money you can invest in software or hardware to make piracy unnecessary. You can invest in drive imaging software, buy extra hard drives and drive trays, you can get a drive selecter, a computer dedicated for gaming, etc. Yes, the alternatives above are not cheap, but it is legal, and it is a good way to avoid a lot of product activation, requesting new keys, etc. I just want to say that it is because of cracking that we have product activation, have to request new keys, etc. Every time you crack something you become apart of the problem, and not the solution. You become just another statistic developers are trying to protect their software from and security gets worse, and worse, and worse. The worse product security gets crackers feel justified in cracking it, and legal users are upset at the additional security. I admit I hate security and authorisation systems as much as anyone here. It is one of the reasons I use a lot of Linux applications. The os and most apps are free or low cost. I don't have to deal with product keys for everything, but it was my choice so I don't have to pirate the same kind of apps for Windows. oriol gómez wrote: ok guys, I didn't write why i have a jd crack so you guys could pick on me, i only wrote that because liam asked us why we are doing it. m --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

Yeah, thanks from me too for that site. -- From: shaun everiss [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2008 11:48 PM To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Subject: Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day Hmm thanks for that site. 2 bucks per album man. At 04:18 a.m. 6/02/2008, you wrote: It's been a while but I believe I'll step into the dirt this time around. I'm certainly guilty of mp3 piracy in the past. I used to hate buying an album and then discovering that out of thirteen or sixteen songs, there was maybe four or five that I actually enjoyed if I was very lucky. I used to deeply resent that. I found it all too easy to rationalise grabbing a song here or there that I actually wanted. With software, there's too much of a stretch for me to ever make that kind of compromise with morality. If I enjoy using a program, I'll either enjoy it enough to buy it or simply do without it. It's that cut and dried. You're purchasing one thing that presumeably does what you want or need it to do. There's no slippery slope there. It's just a moral cliff to either jump off or not. Personally, I much prefer the higher ground. If, for some reason, I need technical support or a replacement key, I know I'm entitled to good customer care. On the music front, I've finally had the good luck to have found: www.mp3fiesta.com It sells mp3s very cheaply so that buying an album is something like two dollars US and individual tracks are around ten cents. Downloading the mp3s is as easy as downloading a regular file and I don't have to worry about them only working on one machine or anything like that. It's about as reasonable as humanly possible and I know I'm supporting the artists. Any way you slice it, piracy is wrong. I'm not certain there's all that much to understand about why people do it. On the face of it, piracy doesn't seem wrong because no physical goods are being taken. I think we're all still catching up to the new digital world we live in. We have a hard time seeing the physical consequences of the act and that has allowed piracy to become as pervasive as it has particularly with music. In the accessible games industry, we'll feel the effects of piracy far more keenly as developers either go out of business or make their security more restrictive to the point where it starts to deny legitimate customers the ownership rights they ought to have. That process has already started with these activation keys which tie a game to a certain machine. I just had to get another code for Pipe2 so I could have it on my new desktop. If and when I'm able to get the funds to upgrade Jaws and go to a Vista machine, I'll have to do that all over again. If people keep passing around keys and cracks, I just hope developers keep their legal customers foremost.

[Audyssey] FW: piracy of judgment day
Yes I agree that gw micro do seem to be better to my mind. I don't disagree. Far from it. I like how they especially don't release something until they've ironed out as best they can all the bugs. I've had 6.1 for nearly a year and it's great. What am saying is though, is that something like we is still a lot of money for what it is. Yes I feel like I've got more bang for my buck for the following reasons: 1. unrestricted amount of installs. I love that feature! Instead of having to mucl around with pothetic ILM's from jaws I don't have to worry about that. Especially as I've formatted my machine once in the last 3 months and now because of hardware issues, I have recently replaced most of the hardware in it so I've had to have it formatted again. New mobo, CPU the works. 2. it doesn't matter what ms opperating system I use. Whether it be xp home or pro, vista home, premium business etc etc so on and so forth. There's none of this stupidness about having to buy windoweyes pro where as with jaws that's what you have to do. With jaws there's not just a jaws pro cost there's also a jaws pro SMA. And yes, there's a cost banged on to that as well. Yes fs rip you off they really are the microsoft of the blind world and I don't care who's on here that works for them. Like it. 3. I don't know if it's available in the UK I never bothered to ask but at least with gw there's a payment plan that people can make use of should they wish to. That I like and respect probably that above any other reason I mention here. whilst the product is expencive at least they are aware that not everybody working or otherwise has the money to make a pc talk by purchasing something that is more expencive than most computers. 4. you get 3 SMA's instead of 2 with jaws. They are the 4 main reasons why I think that we is better value for money. But equally what I will say that it is a lot of money for what it is. Now there are free screen readers out there, and some of them I've herd from various sources are coming on quite nicely, I think may end up forcing the prices of the likes of fs and gw down. Which I think is a good thing. I'm not saying that gw isn't a bad company actually I don't think it is. I like it. But even so for those people out there that have families, kids what ever, lets face it, 700 quid just to make a computer talk and that's not even talking about a braille display, how would you justify that to your kids who are young? It's not realistic is it. I don't have any kids. Am lucky whilst am not single financially I am my own dependent. -Original Message- From: Stephen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 05 February 2008 22:02 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day Hi there. I think that gwmicro are one of the more ethical blindness technology companies. I was in a situation where I needed more than 40 minutes at a time to evaluate wineyes, because of an issue with the computer crashing sometimes whilst jaws was speaking. I was using an old jaws version and wanted to see if the new version would fix the issue. annoyingly, it never crashed during the 40 minute window, I tried ringing up my local dealer and asked if they had a 60 day timed evaluation, and the guy proceeded to give me a lecture about how freedom scifi dont do timed evaluations any more and then he tried to tell me that the 40 minute demo was enough time to do whatever I wanted to do. I tried to explain the situation about my soundcard but he didnt' seem to want to take it in. This from an old schoolfriend of 16 years, I couldn't believe the elitest crap he was spouting about how freedom scifi need to make money, and nothing is free, etc, etc, they must have him brainwashed or something. On the other hand, when I tried the same approach with gwmicro, they were much friendlier, and they sent me a special version of wineyes which would run for 60 days. Moral of the story? if you charge $3000 for a product with crap tech support to go along with it, and make the demo restrictions too harsh, then you have it coming to you! At 06:56 AM 6/02/2008, you wrote: Here's my take on the subject. If you're a pirate, you're a pirate. You can't say any more than that. Whether it be downloading mp3's or games or what ever. Games and software I don't pirate in case I need the technical support. But for stull like jaws cracks and the like I can definitely see why they are around. But then again if a company wants to charge stupid prices for a product then they deserve everything they get. Just because it's a small market doesn't give fs or gw micro the right to scoop the market for all the cash they can. Like I say I don't pirate software because I want the technical support that goes with it. Also because sometimes cracked versions of software can leed to all sorts of strange and wonderful problems. Am lucky enough to have a credit card so I can buy what I want and pay it back in the manor of time

Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day
Hi TJ and James, I think you missed the obvious. If you don't like the developers price for a product, and you don't think the product is worth the price, don't buy it. Even if the product is a simple game like Beep and it costs $30 that is not an excuse to crack it. A wise person once told me, if you can't afford it you probably don't need it. You will always find something else to do the job. For example, I know I will never have the money to buy a brand new Porsche 911. However, that doesn't mean my wife and I have to do without a car. We are currently buying a used 1991 Toyoda in fairly good condition. It isn't as nice as the Porsche, but it still gets us where we want to go for a fraction of the price. Tj wrote: James is correct. But it's a bit deeper than that. My thing is, that's wrong on the producer's end too. To put 3 minutes into coding something to sell for like 30 dollars. If we can do that, why don't I write out the score of the superbowl and sell it for 20 bucks. - Original Message - From: James Scholes [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2008 8:36 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day I think he was refering to the fact that selling the game Beep for any price, no matter how low, with be a completely stupid move, as all you do is hit the space bar for 5 minutes, then its over!

Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day
here here Darren! Not judgemental! Sure, it is stealing, but in some cases I consider it a more Robin Hood type act. But I do think for blind games and software, for me ethically, piracy is a no-no, because people like Thomas and Liam are one-man businesses, trying to make a living, they're doing it for a very small market like us, they're also not rich rich, and also games are not an absolute necessity, but I do agree that if a person does pirate, I'm thankful there's not a huge spying satellite judging harshly every case.

Re: [Audyssey] Game Cheating Software Question....
Hi Ryan, Well, protecting your games from cheating is almost as hard is protecting from piracy. I've been doing some experimentation along the same lines with Montezuma's Return and the problem is that the cheating software I have encountered actually rewrites the values stored at a given memory address in real time. The only way to crack down on this some is try and build in a feature that constantly compares the values in memory with a specified minimum and maximum value range for a specific level. For example, let us assume there is a maximum of 20 choppers on such and such a level. Each is worth 100 points. So you know the maximum score a player can get for that level is 2000 points. You will need to constantly check that the player's score is equal to or less than the 2000 points for that level. If the game sees that there is 3 points and there has only been 10 choppers shot down you know someone is hankying with the values, and you can take counter measures. Hmm... wonder what is a good counter measure for a cheater. Have a notice that you were caught cheating, and now your computer hard drive is being reformatted. Sorry, about any lost data, but life is tough sometimes. See you again when you get your software reinstalled. Muhahahahahaha! Ryan Smith wrote: Hi, Not that I am into game cheating much, or at all really, I was wondering if someone could write a list of popular game cheating software that the ag-community uses?

Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day
Hi Yohandy, Yes, and that is one of those huge gray areas that might or might not have a right answer. Truth be told it is probably impossible for a game developer not to steel someone elses idea, or do some copyright infringement. Take Jim Kitchen's games. Monopoly, NFL, Yatzi, etc. All of those things are copyrighted, but do to the limited market, the fact they are free, etc I don't seriously see someone like Hazbro Toys or the NFL suing him for copyright infringement. It would cost them more to take the case to court than Jim is harming them. Though I think we are now comparing apples and oranges. Using a copyright is different than cracking and steeling someones software or music.

Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day
Hi Darren, Yeah, true. However, in the commercial world there is quite a bit of miner copyright infringement going on as well. If you think about it Montezuma's Revenge came out around the time Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom came out, and there is no question in my mind that Parker Brothers was thinking of that movie when they came out with Montezuma's Revenge. Years later the developers of Tomb Raider admitted they were thinking of an Indiana Jones type leading roll for their game, but the company didn't want to have to pay royalties and licenses to Lucas to get Indiana Jones. So they created their own leading character, Lara Croft, loosely based on Indiana Jones. Which is perfectly legal under copyright law. Another case in point is some years ago there was a board game out called Hotels. It was similar to Monopoly in all respects except the name. Each player got a car, went around the board buying up land, and then building big expensive Hotels. When the other players went bankrupt, and you had a monopoly, the game was over. Everyone can see where the makers of the game got the idea, but according to copyright law the game was different enough not to step on any copyright infringements. However, I think we are getting way off topic here. Dealing with copyright issues is not the same as cracking software and pirating it.

Alot of this stems from intelectual property rights. We all disagree with some property rights that seam to us to be unreasonable or unfair. For example, George Lucas invented Star Wars, and legally has the right to control the Star Wars trade marks, copyrights, and so on as he wishes.

I'd have to disagree. It's exactly the same thing to me. copyright infringement, copying music, recording tv shows, cracking software. We shouldn't do that, yet we continue doing it every day. Something else I just thought of is movies. movies with descriptive tracks are very hard to obtain in the US, but there are plenty in the UK. so do we share them, or do we simply deny ourselves the pleasure of watching it? a sighted user can walk into a store and pick up the movie, but we can't get the same movie with audio description. so is it wrong to obtain the movie through other means? - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Wednesday, February 06, 2008 2:25 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day Hi Yohandy, Yes, and that is one of those huge gray areas that might or might not have a right answer.

Monopoly, NFL, Yatzi, etc. All of those things are copyrighted, but do to the limited market, the fact they are free, etc I don't seriously see someone like Hazbro Toys or the NFL suing him for copyright infringement.

Hi Shaun, Well, interesting you bring that question up. As it happens wile ESP Pinball Clasic and PCS Packman Talks do use official Packman sounds it still doesn't quite feel like the classic 1982 game for Atari. For example, in Packman Talks the ghost talk. In the orignal Packman the game made a computerised sound when the ghosts were getting near. As a result when I play the Packman Talks version it doesn't quite sound like the original. I've actually been toying with the idea of making a 100% authentic Packman game, but I don't want to hurt Phil's sales. shaun everiss wrote: what was the first version like, any different to the esp pinbal packman, or the pcs one? --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

I've always found the ambient sounds to be almost as enriching as Monkey Business, though obviously in a far, far different theme. I did have one question that's been on my mind for a while now. Is the voice on the main menu a synthetic voice, and if so what is it? I don't believe it's ATT Charles because I've heard samples of him and the Dyna Man voice doesn't sound like him. It does't sound nearly so choppy for one thing. It actually sounds like Chrostopher Lee from Lord of te Rings, although I doubt any Audio Game dev would have the kind of money he'd be likely to ask for in exchange for lending his voice to a game.

If companies like fs they halve their prices, their sales would tripple I think. That probably means more tech support and other things too lol. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Wednesday, February 06, 2008 7:54 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day Hi Ari, I totally understand where those people are coming from in the cases below, and I can sympathize with their situation. Unfortunately, that isn't the fault of the company that produced the product in question. It is the fault of society in general, and the economic status of the developing country where the person resides. For example, I have been told a couple times that Montezuma's Return is quite expensive in some South American countries, and have been asked if I could lower the price for them. Well, the problem is I live in the United States and I need to charge an amount of money suited for the econemy where I live. If I cut the price in half to lower the payment for that person's econemy then I am losing money and am unable to sustain a quality of income necessary for my own country's econemy. There isn't a good answer for this kind of catch 22 situation. With a company such as FS the reason the software is so high is they have several programmers and tech support personelle making around $6 a year last I checked. In order to pay all those programmers, tech support people, and sales reps the software has to make enough in order to pay all those employees and cover things like computer upgrades, software upgrades, etc to keep the business running. Selling Jaws dirt cheap to every blind user on SSI, in developing countries, etc isn't going to pay all those employees and pay the electric bill do to economic prices. We can treat this has a Robinhood situation where we rob the ritch to support the poor, but never see by robbing the ritch we eventually hurt the poor as well. If you steel income required for upgrades, research, etc the next product release isn't going to be as good as it could have been. Often times we might not even know what was left out do to our piracy. ari wrote: No, there are instances that I have seen where for the case of humanity, I am looking at it from the perspective of the developing world where money is scarce, and, let us say, before NVDA and free screen readers, there were, let's call them needs, and there were questions of refused funding for such programs while a fellow blind comrade's livlihood was in peril because if he didn't have such software he couldn't get a job he needed to support his family, even though he was willing to work, some people were unable or unwilling to help out. I'm being cryptic, but I can still defend piracy. There are also instances of persons living in countries under US sanctions who, a certain blind person wanted to become a teacher, and, because he was not allowed to import screen reading programs, well, provisions had to be made. I know that this is technically piracy, but I regard this as delicate shades of grey where I would allow human discretion.

Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day
Hi Yohandy, Hmmm... it is really a tough choice. If we are going to try and be 100% legal then that means we have to buy copyrights, pay for all music, descriptive vidios, audio books, etc. As a result the quality of life for the average blind person will go down in quality since we would have to give up things like Jim Kitchen's Monopoly, for example, since he didn't license it with Hazbro. We would have to give up free downloads of pirated audio books, dvd movies, etc. I think that is an unrealistic expectation. Assuming every game developer was forced to toe that line, acquire copyrights, etc there would be a lot of games that simply would not exist in accessible format. There would be no Trek 2000, no Shades of Doom, no Packman Talks, no Monopoly, No Yatzi, no NFL, no STFC, no Montezuma's Return, no Sarah, no Bopit, and so on. You see my point. Those games would sease to exist because no blind dev could afford to write them. Especially the free games like Bopit, Monopoly, and Jim's Football. That is unrealistic, and is never going to happen. As for your point about descriptive movies and shows that is a clear example of where the law and reality are in clear conflict with each other. I'd have no problem paying for descriptive movies as long as they are priced the same as normal dvd movies, and they were available. However, sometimes the one and only way to get it is through downloading it from others passing them around who have it. Is there an easy solution for that? I don't know, but it is really frustrating. Yohandy wrote: I'd have to disagree. It's exactly the same thing to me. copyright infringement, copying music, recording tv shows, cracking software. We shouldn't do that, yet we continue doing it every day. Something else I just thought of is movies. movies with descriptive tracks are very hard to obtain in the US, but there are plenty in the UK. so do we share them, or do we simply deny ourselves the pleasure of watching it? a sighted user can walk into a store and pick up the movie, but we can't get the same movie with audio description. so is it wrong to obtain the movie through other means? --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

Same with the Danger City beta. I can't exactly do that with Giftanum because I haven't got the setup file for that. Thanks.

Re: [Audyssey] FW: piracy of judgment day
well I have hal and jaws on here. One of these I'd like to get the gw stuff to. Both hal and jaws were funded by various agencies for various courses. True I have had to pay a bit for upgrades but its not as much as I would have had to do if I got it all myself. At 04:36 a.m. 7/02/2008, you wrote: Yes I agree that gw micro do seem to be better to my mind. I don't disagree. Far from it. I like how they especially don't release something until they've ironed out as best they can all the bugs. I've had 6.1 for nearly a year and it's great. What am saying is though, is that something like we is still a lot of money for what it is. Yes I feel like I've got more bang for my buck for the following reasons: 1. unrestricted amount of installs. I love that feature! Instead of having to mucl around with pothetic ILM's from jaws I don't have to worry about that. Especially as I've formatted my machine once in the last 3 months and now because of hardware issues, I have recently replaced most of the hardware in it so I've had to have it formatted again. New mobo, CPU the works. 2. it doesn't matter what ms opperating system I use. Whether it be xp home or pro, vista home, premium business etc etc so on and so forth. There's none of this stupidness about having to buy windoweyes pro where as with jaws that's what you have to do. With jaws there's not just a jaws pro cost there's also a jaws pro SMA. And yes, there's a cost banged on to that as well. Yes fs rip you off they really are the microsoft of the blind world and I don't care who's on here that works for them. Like it. 3. I don't know if it's available in the UK I never bothered to ask but at least with gw there's a payment plan that people can make use of should they wish to. That I like and respect probably that above any other reason I mention here. whilst the product is expencive at least they are aware that not everybody working or otherwise has the money to make a pc talk by purchasing something that is more expencive than most computers. 4. you get 3 SMA's instead of 2 with jaws. They are the 4 main reasons why I think that we is better value for money. But equally what I will say that it is a lot of money for what it is. Now there are free screen readers out there, and some of them I've herd from various sources are coming on quite nicely, I think may end up forcing the prices of the likes of fs and gw down. Which I think is a good thing. I'm not saying that gw isn't a bad company actually I don't think it is. I like it. But even so for those people out there that have families, kids what ever, lets face it, 700 quid just to make a computer talk and that's not even talking about a braille display, how would you justify that to your kids who are young? It's not realistic is it. I don't have any kids.

I think that gwmicro are one of the more ethical blindness technology companies. I was in a situation where I needed more than 40 minutes at a time to evaluate wineyes, because of an issue with the computer crashing sometimes whilst jaws was speaking. I was using an old jaws version and wanted to see if the new version would fix the issue. annoyingly, it never crashed during the 40 minute window, I tried ringing up my local dealer and asked if they had a 60 day timed evaluation, and the guy proceeded to give me a lecture about how freedom scifi dont do timed evaluations any more and then he tried to tell me that the 40 minute demo was enough time to do whatever I wanted to do. I tried to explain the situation about my soundcard but he didnt' seem to want to take it in. This from an old schoolfriend of 16 years, I couldn't believe the elitest crap he was spouting about how freedom scifi need to make money, and nothing is free, etc, etc, they must have him brainwashed or something. On the other hand, when I tried the same approach with gwmicro, they were much friendlier, and they sent me a special version of wineyes which would run for 60 days. Moral of the story? if you charge $3000 for a product with crap tech support to go along with it, and make the demo restrictions too harsh, then you have it coming to you!

Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day
and linux I hope. If nvda could read all the programs I'd gladly switch. And if your reader is as good as jaws that would really rock. I have been putting off the upgrade to vista for mostly that reason. Its going to cost a load just to get the computers upgraded, well a small load for the main box, a small bit for the laptop and a small bit for the other desktop, there is already 5 grand. Not counting the os and such so for argument sake lets say 6. Now at this point paying more to upgrade readers say another 3 grand or 5 grand is really pushing it.

Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day
Yeah, one of these things came up when I first got online. I found and purchaced a program to addremove things that was quite cheap, and a bit later I found a free one. So although the second prog was lower cost the second was cheap it was free. However The first had a better interface and what is 8 us bucks anyway.

If you don't like the developers price for a product, and you don't think the product is worth the price, don't buy it. Even if the product is a simple game like Beep and it costs $30 that is not an excuse to crack it. A wise person once told me, if you can't afford it you probably don't need it. You will always find something else to do the job. For example, I know I will never have the money to buy a brand new Porsche 911. However, that doesn't mean my wife and I have to do without a car. We are currently buying a used 1991 Toyoda in fairly good condition. It isn't as nice as the Porsche, but it still gets us where we want to go for a fraction of the price. Tj wrote: James is correct. But it's a bit deeper than that. My thing is, that's wrong on the producer's end too. To put 3 minutes into coding something to sell for like 30 dollars. If we can do that, why don't I write out the score of the superbowl and sell it for 20 bucks. - Original Message - From: James Scholes [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2008 8:36 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day I think he was refering to the fact that selling the game Beep for any price, no matter how low, with be a completely stupid move, as all you do is hit the space bar for 5 minutes, then its over!

Re: [Audyssey] Game Cheating Software Question....
I'd like games that instead of all the scoring be like the judgement day thing. I like the trophy system. You need to do several things to get things. Like cheat and win, cheat and lose, win every level, get close to dieing, almost destroy the enemy and the bos and typing strange words into the cheat box. Imagine if that was in the os, you do something weird just for the heck of it to see what happens and you get an easter egg grin At 06:04 a.m. 7/02/2008, you wrote: Hi Ryan, Well, protecting your games from cheating is almost as hard is protecting from piracy. I've been doing some experimentation along the same lines with Montezuma's Return and the problem is that the cheating software I have encountered actually rewrites the values stored at a given memory address in real time. The only way to crack down on this some is try and build in a feature that constantly compares the values in memory with a specified minimum and maximum value range for a specific level. For example, let us assume there is a maximum of 20 choppers on such and such a level. Each is worth 100 points. So you know the maximum score a player can get for that level is 2000 points. You will need to constantly check that the player's score is equal to or less than the 2000 points for that level. If the game sees that there is 3 points and there has only been 10 choppers shot down you know someone is hankying with the values, and you can take counter measures. Hmm... wonder what is a good counter measure for a cheater. Have a notice that you were caught cheating, and now your computer hard drive is being reformatted. Sorry, about any lost data, but life is tough sometimes. See you again when you get your software reinstalled. Muhahahahahaha! Ryan Smith wrote: Hi, Not that I am into game cheating much, or at all really, I was wondering if someone could write a list of popular game cheating software that the ag-community uses? It will be for SDM as a way to prevent users in Unlimited Mode from posting scores, although I am aware of tricks, I will do my best to ensure no cheating software will be used when posting at all, but more so in Unlimited Mode.

I'm still trying to get to grips with the code, as it's not very well commented, and some of the variables aren't obvious, so I'm having to look at each variable assignment and go from there.

Which reminds me, Alan, If you're still on the list could you get in touch? I need to give you some information for uploading the setup. I am also working on some other abandonware projects, such as JFW Hangman. If anybody has any questions or suggestions about any of these games then please let me know.

Re: [Audyssey] piracy of judgment day
I'd be happy if I could subscribe to discriptive tracks. But even though people pushed for that it never happened. At 09:53 a.m. 7/02/2008, you wrote: Hi Yohandy, Hmmm... it is really a tough choice. If we are going to try and be 100% legal then that means we have to buy copyrights, pay for all music, descriptive vidios, audio books, etc. As a result the quality of life for the average blind person will go down in quality since we would have to give up things like Jim Kitchen's Monopoly, for example, since he didn't license it with Hazbro. We would have to give up free downloads of pirated audio books, dvd movies, etc. I think that is an unrealistic expectation. Assuming every game developer was forced to toe that line, acquire copyrights, etc there would be a lot of games that simply would not exist in accessible format. There would be no Trek 2000, no Shades of Doom, no Packman Talks, no Monopoly, No Yatzi, no NFL, no STFC, no Montezuma's Return, no Sarah, no Bopit, and so on. You see my point. Those games would sease to exist because no blind dev could afford to write them. Especially the free games like Bopit, Monopoly, and Jim's Football. That is unrealistic, and is never going to happen. As for your point about descriptive movies and shows that is a clear example of where the law and reality are in clear conflict with each other. I'd have no problem paying for descriptive movies as long as they are priced the same as normal dvd movies, and they were available. However, sometimes the one and only way to get it is through downloading it from others passing them around who have it. Is there an easy solution for that? I don't know, but it is really frustrating. Yohandy wrote: I'd have to disagree. It's exactly the same thing to me. copyright infringement, copying music, recording tv shows, cracking software. We shouldn't do that, yet we continue doing it every day. Something else I just thought of is movies. movies with descriptive tracks are very hard to obtain in the US, but there are plenty in the UK. so do we share them, or do we simply deny ourselves the pleasure of watching it? a sighted user can walk into a store and pick up the movie, but we can't get the same movie with audio description. so is it wrong to obtain the movie through other means? --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.
