Re: [Audyssey] MOTA
Hi Hayri, That is a good question. In an article I wrote for Audyssey Magazine Issue 54 I discussed Mysteries of the Ancients at length. Also recently I let it be known I was attempting to port the Mysteries of the Ancients code over to the cross platform Genesis Engine. Well, I was both successful and unsuccessful in the porting process. What basically happened over the passed month is I released Mysteries of the Ancients 0.4 stable to my testers to test out while I worked on the 0.5 cross platform version. Mysteries of the Ancients 0.4 proved to be fairly stable, and besides a few miner issues it was looking fairly good for a demo in the next month or so. Then, i decided to port the source code over to the cross platform Genesis engine so I could run the game on Linux and Mac computers. That was not such a good idea as it turned out. After I got the source code ported over to the cross platform Genesis Engine basically everything started going wrong. There are a number of stability issues in the cross platform engine I didn't know about such as you might be walking or running along and the game will suddenly exit without warning. One moment you are there running, firing, walking, whatever and the next the game closes on you. Another bug in 0.5 is you might pick up an item such as a scroll, ammo pack, and the game freezes and won't close. Forcing you to unload it via the Windows task manager. Something that unstable is totally unacceptable. So where I am right now, in this point in time, is I am rolling back to version 0.4, which was reasonably stable, and am going to work on the Windows based engine for the time being. When I am ready I will release the Windows release to the public, and work on the linux and Mac ports at a later time. Since there were a number of upgrades in 0.5 I'm going to have to do them all over again with 0.4 only this time put them into the older Windows only Genesis Engine and not the newer cross platform engine. HTH. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA
Hi Bryan, Actually, Mysteries of the Ancients is a lot further along than that. I am looking at summer at my current rate of development. It would have been a lot sooner if I hadn't decided to port the code over to a cross platform Genesis Engine which has more bugs and stability issues than I can count. For that reason i have wisely decided to do a 180, and go back to using the Windows based Genesis Engine which was at least functionally stable. Once I do the proper upgrades to the Windows engine you guys wil probably see a Windows only demo fairly soon afterward. Smile.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA
Hi Matheus, As far as I know nothing. Although, it does help to keep tabs of the USA Games News Letter which tends to be up to date and to the point when they come out. The Audyssey Magazine is also another good resource to get news. Personally it is easier on me if people use those resources first before asking the same questions others ask both on and off list. A lot of people don't realize the number of times in a month I get the how is it coming or when will it be done type question on or off list. I get those questions so frequently I put out a monthly USA Games news letter and place articles in Auddyssey Magazine frequently to answer specifically those kinds of questions. That is why I encurrage gamers to read those resources first. I spend a lot more time composing one of those news posts than you will get from me shooting off a its coming along message in responce to the 10th or 15th person to ask me that question that month.

Hi Charles, That is true, but I also know there are plenty of people who have purchased Mysteries of the Ancients who don't recieve Audyssey or the USA Games News for one reason or another. Maybe they leave the Audyssey and the USA Games lists for a while and thus miss the news letter and the magazine as well. It is a bit frustrating, but it happens. I get at least one question per month, sometimes more, from people who did not recieve the Audyssey Magazine and the USA Games News. It is frustrating, but it happens.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA
Hi, Exactly. I would definitely let people know if there was something that was playable, stable, and ready for the public to use. As it is 0.5 has taken a massive turn for the worst, and I now have to either go back to 0.4 and start over with the upgrades, or remove the cross platform Genesis Engine from 0.5 and restore the Windows only engine. Either way it is a huge mess and I don't expect anything playable for the private testers for a week or so. Maybe longer depending on how long it takes to get 0.5 stable enough to play without crashing again. william lomas wrote: I am sure Thomas would update us if anything playable was available --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Free Downloadable Text RPGs
The only other downloadable RPG I know of that's worth anything besides those two is 3 skulls. Its got a rather tough interface to adapt to where screen readers are concerned, but its definitely adaptable with some patience. And worth it in my opinion, with full party based combat, character creation, the ability to get two other party members to join up at will, even a decent party management system, if an npc joins up that you don't want at that moment, leave him in a tavern somewhere and go pick up another. The inventory management involves a little drag and drop, which yes, you can do with a screen reader, jaws at least, with absolutely 0 sight, I'm completely blind and have beaten this game. You don't need to use the drag and drop function, it just makes interfacing with the game a bit easier since otherwise if you want to use say, a healing potion, you have to go into said character's inventory tab and hunt it down amongst all his items, whereas with the quick slot option not only do you get another 3 free inventory slots, but you can then use the potion right from the battle interface. The only downsides to 3 skulls are 1, its incomplete, and 2, for some reason it costs money. Never seen anyone charge for an incomplete game, especially 10 dollars, but there you have it.

[Audyssey] Would you pay $50 for a killer controller?
Hi all, I am ramping up plans for an online head to head fighting game. At first it will mostly be a test bed for latency issues, so I can see what the limitations are for head to head combat over the internet. One idea I am picking at is the inclusion of The nintendo Wii controllers for the game. It is possible to use the Wii controllers via a blue tooth hookup with a PC. Having used these controlers on my Wii, I can tell you they are amazing. In the boxing game, the faster you punch with the controller, the harder your character punches. In Mortal Combat, you draw a pattern in the air with your controller to execute certain moves. All of this functionality is available with the PC port of the controller software. My question is, how much would the average blind gamer be into this? I think the draw to a head to head fighting game would be good, assuming lag issues could be worked out, but would the average gamer be willing to drop the $50 or so necessary to buy a controller and blue-tooth hook up? The possibilities for useing the Wii controllers is immense for accessible gaming, most especially for action titles. The balance board can be used as well, another $80 or so. Think of the ability to dodge your opponent simply by leaning, or run away from a monster by, well, running. Anyhow, it is an exciting concept, what do you guys think?

Re: [Audyssey] Would you pay $50 for a killer controller?
Hey Che, Problem you might have here man is that, unless I've missed something which is very possible, your online fightathon would be the only accessible game using this controller. That much money for a controller isn't a big deal, but that much money for a controller to play one game only plus the cost of the game starts to become one maybe. Another thing that's worth pointing out is that a lot of people find themselves with some kind of internet hookup most places they visit now, but wouldn't be taking their Wii controller around with them 24/7, so you'd still be needing to maintain playability from the keyboard/other controllers. Don't get me wrong dude I love the idea, but as a formerly beatemup geek/guru, I'm more drawn to the game idea than the fact that it's using a Wii controller. I've only ever played a few games online (quake, mk3 over a lan, sound rts etc) and already for me it's the best part of gaming. Can't wait to see more access titles developing where it's possible.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA
Hi Will, It is definitely not a total loss. In fact one good thing that has come out of this is this is a great opportunity to clean up the code and do some fine tuning I wouldn't do until the game was complete or near so. For example, when a programmer codes they generally don't put their methods or functions in any specific order. They just add them as they create them one after another at least I do. As a result you might get a list of functions like this. SpeakPlayerScore(); SpeakPlayerHealth(); SpeakPlayerStrength(); SpeakPlayerDirection(); Obviously that is in no specific order other than they are all announcement functions. Normally that is ok, but it can make it hard to find a specific function if they aren't in any order. Since I am working on 0.5 doing a line by line edit, correcting formatting errors, and putting the Windows libraries back into the game I can go ahead and put those functions in order just simply by copying them from the original text file into a new text file, and editing them one at a time to make sure they are using the Windows Genesis Engine instead of the cross platform one. Instead of the above list 0.5 will look something like this. SpeakPlayerDirection(); SpeakPlayerHealth(); SpeakPlayerScore(); SpeakPlayerStrength(); Ah, much better wouldn't you say? Now, by putting all of my functions in alphabetical order I'll automatically know that SpeakPlayerHealth() follows SpeakPlayerDirection() and so on. Yes, I can use the find command in notepad to find anything i want it is still easier to edit or work on if the related functions are in the same general area.

Re: [Audyssey] Would you pay $50 for a killer controller?
There comes a point, particularly when most blind people are unemployed, that things like that just aren't worth it. I would love to check out that In The Pit game which needs an X-box 360 controller but it just makes no sense to spend thirty bucks to be able to play one free game. The same goes for spending all the money on the Wiimote and balance board. That would essentially strip away over half my spending money for the month and I'm not even counting whatever you'd then reasonably charge for the game itself. I have things relatively easy here paying my parents room and board. I shudder to think how limited the audience for a game which demanded people purchase those accessories would be. If you can put the functionality for using those things in a game without requiring people to have them, you'd doubtless find a small number of people willing to fork over the money. A fighting game wouldn't overly excite me but there's been quite a lot of interest in that sort of thing. I would predict that you'd do quite well sales wise with something along those lines. Through no fault of yours, I lost interest in Rail Racer some time ago. Racing just isn't my cup of tea. Arcade, strategy or rpg games would suit me far better. However, before my interest faded, I took note of the utter care and craftsmanship you put into that game. I have the utmost respect for your abilities and hope for terrific stuff from you in the future. You seem to be open to a whole lot of different game styles and I have no doubt you'll come up with something which turns my crank eventually. Thankfully, I think interest in accessible games is once again on the rise. With moves like the one made by Serotek at the Atia conference, that can only draw more blind people into digital life. The thought of paying half as much as I did for Jaws to get a screen-reader which I'd then never have to pay to keep updated is mighty appealing.

Re: [Audyssey] Would you pay $50 for a killer controller?
well I am not going out of my way to get an xbox or wie controler, I already have a stick and I never use it, I prefur keyboard control and mouse control and even then I still like keyboard.

Another thing that's worth pointing out is that a lot of people find themselves with some kind of internet hookup most places they visit now, but wouldn't be taking their Wii controller around with them 24/7, so you'd still be needing to maintain playability from the keyboard/other controllers.

Re: [Audyssey] Advice needed.
Hey Lindsay, I'm guessing if it was obvious she was going to turn out as a mudder or liking a specific genre then you wouldn't be asking. If she's got no clue what will float her boat, I'd say Super Deekout would be a good start. There's not tons of sounds or controls to learn, she'll get the hang of homing in on items as well as avoiding them (switching between doing those two can be an absolute brain buster for new gamers), and above all it's utterly pointless and infuriatingly addictive... just what games should be lol. hth Scott On 1/30/09, Lindsay Cowell lind...@lindsaycowell.freeserve.co.uk wrote: I have a blind friend who is new to game playing, what do you suggest she tries first?

I am just really into car racing and driving.

[Audyssey] Rail Racing for speed junkies. was:Re: Would you pay $50 for a killer controller?
Hi Jim, I must say if you are into racing games, it is surprising you haven't registered with rail racer. I offered several game developers on list here copies of the game, and I remember specifically sending you a free key way back, in partial payment for all the fun I've had with your games. Rail racer isn't a standard racing game in that you must do jumps, avoid force fields and the like, but the essence of high speed racing is maintained throughout, as I too am a racing junkie from way back.
