Hi all, I'm stuck with a puzzle on the game called Intruder, and I can't find a walkthrough. Does anyone have a walkthrough or know the answer tto this one, I can't get into the house. I've dialed the kids on the cell phone, and I think the next thing is to find something in the swimming pool. I've managed to undress and get into the pool, I can see something shiny in the pool, it could be a key, but when I tell the game to dive, it dives but I don't know how to get the object.

[Audyssey] Dos Games was RS Games
Hi Shaun, Yeah, I know what you mean about not being able to run some of the older Dos games. After my parents got our first IBM compatible system, an IBM I386, I got several Dos games. A lot of those games won't run on anything higher than a I486 running Windows 95. I actually held onto an I486 with Windows 95 for several years running a Dectalk PC and Jaws just for gaming purposes. Though, when my wife and I moved last year I had to scrap most of my older computers. Some of my games like Duke Nukem II, Over Kill, etc work pretty well using the Dos emulator for Linux. However, I have my share of Dos games that won't run on anything but on an I386 system with true Dos. I have this one game, Wheel of Fortune for Dos, that goes totally nuts on a Pentium IV system. When you run wheel.exe the PC speaker begins playing the Wheel of Fortune music at super fast speed, like 1000 times faster than it should, and it sounds totally hilarious. As soon as the music stops the computer solves all the puzzles, like in under a second, and you get the game over screen. It is extremely funny. I have some pinball games for Dos that do similar weird things. You hit the spacebar to launch the ball and it bounces around the screen hitting bumpers like a laser beam, and then you lose the ball in less than a second. it moves the ball so fast a sighted player can't really see it on the screen before it passes the flippers and gets lost. Again it is sort of funny in a weird sort of way. One of my favorite games for Dos was 688. In that game you played the part of a U.S. 688 submarine commander. While on a training mission you end up getting into a shooting war with a Soviet Alpha-Class attack submarine. I guess it was the forerunner for Silent Steel which came out a couple years later for Windows 95. As for the keynote SA that was a really cool multilingual synth. In college I really wanted one of those. I knew someone who did, and I liked it as it handled French and German extremely well. Synths like Eloquence though made such external synths like the Keynote SA units unnecessary. Hmmm... I wonder if they still have the keynote Multimedia Software around. shaun everiss wrote: yeah mine was an 386sx, running toshiba dos 5.0, I got it in 1993. I didn't discover games till 1996 and then the system survived till 2003 when it finally died. I have never been able to emulate all the old style games nicely. One of the major drawbacks is that I can't get the back of my sa synth to change the batteries. And another to have the keynote software work I need a 386 thats either a straight 86 or an sx running msdos 5 or 6. I tried to get a laptop that was like this but never did. saying that if ever anyone on here does have one in working condition they don't want I may be interested. or even another old system that still has a few years good life in it.

Re: [Audyssey] sryth and ridiculous melee ratings
Hi Bryan, yeah, I sort of see that. I am working on the Daggerspire adcventure right now and I am strongly thinking of dumping all the experience earnd from that adventure into my weapon skills to bring both of them up to 50 each, or as close to it as possible. Weapons is 45 and weapon slashing is 42 so I should be able to at least bring one of those skills up to 50 after completing level 5 of the Dagger spire adventure.

Re: [Audyssey] Dos Games was RS Games
Hi Andy, Several years ago during the Windows 95 and 98 era Humanware and Pulse Data created their own text to speech engine called Keynote Gold Multimedia. It sounded like a Keynote SA, had the same built in multilingual abilities, and I used it at Wright State for doing my foreign language courses. Keep in mind this was back in the days when you had to buy Eloquence, Dectalk Access, etc as an additional add on to Jaws and Window eyes. In the Jaws 2.0 and 3.0 days Jaws didn't come with any text to speech engines. You had to get a synth as an additional purchase. Well, when I was at WSU my parents got me a laptop, but carrying around a Dectalk Express, Keynote SA, etc was totally impractical. Not to mention a very expensive investement. Since I had to take some multilingual courses as part of my degree I wanted a software TTS system that could do multilingual speech. Eloquence was like $300 which was out of my price range. Plus they charged extra for every additional foreign language you wanted. Humanware sold Keynote Gold for something like $250 with all foreign languages so I purchased the cheaper TTS engine. Surprisingly I really liked it. As you might guess after Windows 98 came out Henter-Joice released Jaws 3.2. As a added bonus for upgrading from 3.0 to 3.2 Henter-Joice tossed in Eloquence with all foreign languages for free. How nice of them to do that after it was no longer necessary for me. Since then they have continued tossing in Eloquence as a free add on, and since Jaws 8 they toss in the Scansoft voices for free as well. Now, the rest is history.

Re: [Audyssey] sryth and ridiculous melee ratings
That's a wise decision. The higher you can get your Weaponry skills, especially any subskills, the higher those temporary MR boosts will be. At seventy slashing I've seen temp boosts as high as forty-five. That basically insures that even if you hae a really unlucky roll you'll still hit for a decent amount of damage that round. You'll still take damage but at least the enemy won't escape that round unscathed, even if they don't take a lot of damage.

Re: [Audyssey] Dos Games was RS Games
who knows tom. shortly after keysoft 2.4e pulsedata merged with humanware and then it was all pocket pcs. I have heared the last actual keynote was the toshiba 2100 or something like that. or was it 4400 I don't know. from doodling with drivers on mt1 and mt2 disks the stuff supports the toshiba 2400and 4400 and 2100 but thats the highest its ever got. I still like the keynote gold internal. And i suppose if I was able I'd still like one in this laptop or better still get an older laptop something like a 1910, at least then I'd have things. My games all run in windows, its just I like the way dos displays things. And if keynote software was not so picky. I tried till last year finally purchacing a luggable. on ebay. The reason I never persued it further was mainly the sa batteries being dead and no way to remove them, the fact I couldn't find any more laptops, and the fact the machine although it had better specs than the gold18 was to big and had a bung \ key. granted I could get buy in dos with a selection of batch files but in keysoft which is what I use to search for some things it just wouldn't work. At one point I was going to run everything from my windows system and switch back to the other unit. However with all the extra hardware, dved, stereo, mouse and when it gets back from repair, external hard drive, network hub and usb ports there really is not much room on here anymore. This was also partually my fault as I was given the opertunatey to move to a bigger place still in the same house. Stupidly I didn't and now regret it. Saying that it would probably cost more as I'd have to go wireless, it was near impossible to get the network cables in this current location and now the other one is at the other end of the house and down stairs.

Re: [Audyssey] Dos Games was RS Games
its the keynote gold synth on sound card. On that note tom, I suspect that stuff was released for win95 before all these new synths like realspeak came out. I never heard someone running it in anything higher than 95, no reason it shouldn't run on 95 98 and with the dos hack loaded win me. However it is not a nt bassed thing at least I think so. In fact a load of stuff was released in 95 to cope with the new multimedia things while people were transfering, things like y2k fix, orf mix32, etc. ANd most of these are not needed. At any rate with event of digital soundcards you have seperate input and output streams so it probably wouldn't work so well anyway.

I tried to get a laptop that was like this but never did. saying that if ever anyone on here does have one in working condition they don't want I may be interested. or even another old system that still has a few years good life in it. Idealy I'd like several that I can just change parts out of. I doubt that will happen but I'd still like to run all the old stuff again Now if I could get something to run with a screenreader in dos using the soundcard and switch to my notepad file with hints should I like to then yeah I'd probably do it. another thing is though I have no real desk space now, so who knows. --- 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.

[Audyssey] railracer bug
Hi che. Well after I upgraded railracer I had to delete the config.xml, and then I tried to restore settings. Setting would not restore as server said that no licence was found. I remember making new settings. I then set everything and tried to turn on the web post feature. I know I have set a nickname on 1.4 when I installed it but it got a timed out connection and had to put another name in after which it said there was another timeout and I couldn't set it. However the game does work. --- 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.

[Audyssey] change in sryth
Hi there: So with magical items being less powerful, should I keep using the special sword I got from the cottage, or should I just stick with nonmagical items? thanks Chris --- 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.
