[Audyssey] Vip mud sapi problem
Hi. I was wondering if someone could please help with this, I've asked everywhere else, including on the vip mud list and with a direct E-mail to david greenwood, but haven't got any replies as yet. Using sapi in materia magica everything is okay accept for one thing. When reading the screen with up and down arrows, Sapi refuses to read the status line showing hp, mp and st (staminer). You can read it with left and right arrows, - and the line is deffinately there sinse I've checked it using Hal, it's just that when reading in coming text, the line doesn't get read - which keeps getting me killed in battles sinse I don't know how damaged I'm getting. It does get read in safe areas where the word "safe" appears at the start, which makes me think it's something to do with the line being surrounded with a less than and greater than sign. Any advice would be much appreciated sinse this is rather frustrating. For a direct comparison here's a cut and paste of the line, - though obviously the values vary (I used Hal). <97hp 94sp 164st> Any advice would be much appreciated. Beware the Grue!

[Audyssey] Draconis Entertainment News
Greetings gamers, This note is a quick sneak peek at a few items that will be announced officially on the Draconis web site soon. While news has been slow in coming, we're still working hard to deliver new games for both Mac and Windows. We're sorry it is taking so long. We've not been idle here. In addition to the future titles, Draconis has decided to change things just a little bit. Here are some particular items of note. 1. We don't want to do a development blog, like many have suggested. For one thing, it reveals too much of what we're working on, something that we have a longstanding policy of not doing. But we do understand how nice it would be for gamers to know how things are progressing. To that end, we've decided that we will keep gamers informed on the day-to-day happenings at Draconis to some extent. Don't expect the top secret details, but do expect to have a better idea of what is being worked on. Draconis has opened a Twitter profile and account that gamers can follow to find out a little about what's happening behind the scenes at Draconis. Follow us, and see our Twitter page at http://twitter.com/DracoEnt 2. We are currently building an automated key generation system. This means that, when you purchase our games, you will receive your registration for the game immediately. No more human processing will be required. The new system will be employed for all existing and future titles. This will dramatically change how we do things, as we'll be able to spend far more time on development, and less time on processing orders. 3. We've expanded our offerings to include music. We're proud to bring you a new band called Stage 19. Consisting of two blind musicians, Molly McClenahan and Josh de Lioncourt, Stage 19 is celebrating its first release. It's an EP entitled "Opening Act", and is available on iTunes, Amazon MP3, and other digital music shops under the Draconis Entertainment label. Incidentally, one of the tracks on the EP is the instrumental piece that serves as part of the Draconis audio logo. The band site is http://stage19music.com 4. We have two developers working on the new titles. Silver Dollar is nearing completion and will be a free offering for both Mac and Windows users. Thanks for your continued support. The best years are still ahead of us. In the end, it'll be worth the wait. Thanks for sticking with us. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Mach 1 tts
Hi Peter, Thank you for your suggestions. Ok, I will turn the volume of the tire squeal back up when you shift, but I didn't like it louder. Plus you hear it announce the gear and the engine RPM change. And I never found a good gear click sound that worked. Same problem with the brake sound. It is just very hard to find a tire squeal sound that sounds ok when it is played looping over and over. And if you don't use a little brake sound and loop it, you have no idea how long the file needs to be for any and all braking circumstances. But I will try to get a better one in there. You can adjust the volume of the sapi5 speech if it is too loud for you. And of course the different voices themselves are of different volumes. I started the engine sound out loud so that we could play with it, revving it up and making some noise. But I definitely don't want it so loud that I can not hear the rest of the sounds that I am using to know where I am at on the track during the race. You know the crowd and music or other sounds that indicate how close you are to the wall or how far along you are in the straightaway or turn. BFN Jim Why did the bird cross the kitchen?

Re: [Audyssey] Mach 1
TTS sounds Hi Charles, As I said though, I want to have the audio feedback that a sighted driver would have. That is by listening to the sound get louder and louder as you near the end of that section of the track, it gives you a reference so that you can get ready for the next section just like the sighted driver does by looking for a reference point on the track. Or like in the turn, you can start letting off of the steering wheel because you are nearing the end of the turn. That gives one a better time because the sharper you turn the more speed it scruffs off. I will add the option to have either the current crowd sound get louder the closer that you get to the wall or the old wall echo sound get louder as you get closer to the wall. It is the same thing, just a different sound file.

[Audyssey] talking about flight contorlers.
It would be nice to see which brands of gamepads work with the hand to ear games. Or which gamepads work with the largest majority of the hand to ear games. I wish to untie myself from the keyboard as well. I've gone through two gamepads thus far. A logic tech which rand around $100 which I was able to get my money back and the Philips retractable 2909. I'm working with the philips retractable 2909 gamepad. The gamepad is a duel stick gamepad. So far I see that it works with Jim Kitchen's puppy one. I am working level by level testing out hunter from BSC Games with the gamepad. So far with some practice I've gotten as far as valley of the tigers with it. With the game troopanum I've gotten about level nine or ten with it. I'm having problems landing the ship with the gamepad. So far I've been able to play the side scroller level with blast chamber. But having problems finding the correct pipe and shutting it off in time. Having some problems with the gamepad with Three D Velocity. Not sure if that is pilot error or game error at this time. So once again, it would be nice to see which game pad or game pads work with the majority of the hand to ear games to make them more realistic and more enjoyable to play I say majority of the games. The reason why I say this is that you don't want to pick up a game pad and have it only work with one game. If you had a game pad and or a flight yoke that would handle say for example Puppy one, mach 1, aliens in the outback, lone wolf, tank commander, and the star trek game. Then have that same pad work with Troopanum, hunter and blast chamber and Three D velocity as well. This would be great. You would have one pad that would work with the majority of the h to e game that are out there on the market for we gamers to enjoy. So that is my two cents of this topic.

Hi I have an idea for a game jim where you fly a fighter jet. it takes off and lands like in puppy1 by itself and you go up down left and right use your rocket launcher to intercept missiles coming at you, use machine guns to destroy little puppy1 planes, and drop bombs on airbases that are below you that will fire at you and make you lose the game.

[Audyssey] Mach 1, TTS sounds
Maybe it's a personal opinion, but I like the turn indications of the older version better than the current ones. A whoosh in the speaker followed by an echo off of the wall you are getting closer to during a turn. I'm still getting used to the new turn indicators. Any tips are appreciated, but I'd rather have them in the future, as the game has only been out for one day.

Re: [Audyssey] Mach 1 tts
I find that the crowd sound is louder than the others, and does tend to get in the way. I can hear the engine well enough, but would like less crowd. Or, as talked about in another post, the return of the echo off the wall. I think that is the best track location indicator. --- Shepherds are the best beasts. - Original Message - From: "Jim Kitchen" To: "Valiant8086" Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 2009 3:10 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Mach 1 tts Hi Valiant, All of the sounds in Mach 1 tts should be panning back and fourth as you move left or right in the straightaways or get close to the walls in the turns except for your engine. It does not pan as you are sitting in your car. You can play Mach 1 tts ok even if you can not hear your car engine. Just shift up at 75, 125 and 175.

Re: [Audyssey] Mach 1 tts
Hi Jim, I just played Mach 1 TTS, and it's lots of fun! Unfortunately I haven't plugged in my game pad to try it out yet, so I used the keyboard defaults. Your description is good but some keyboards put the six pack keys in a vertical configuration instead of horizontal so you should say what key does what as in, Default keyboard configuration. The six pack is usually above the arrow keys. right shift key = speedometer. right control key = track position. lower center key of the six pack, End key, = start engine and say gear. lower right key of the six pack, page down, = say lap. upper center key of the six pack, home key, = play horn. lower left key of the six pack, delete key, = say current elapse race time. left arrow key = steering left. right arrow key = steering right. up arrow key = up shift one gear. down arrow key = down shift one gear. left control key = gas peddle. left shift key = brake peddle. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

[Audyssey] one-on-one Basketball
Some first draft thoughts on how a basketball game would work. Defense: Your opponent is running down the court. You have to stay between him and the hoop. If he jumps up to make a shot, you have to jump up to block the shot. If you block it you now have the ball and are on offense. If not, the program should calculate the likelihood of whether the attempted shot would be successful or not. The closer the offensive player is to the hoop, the more likely the attempt will be successful. If you allow the offensive player to run into you by stopping your movement, you are charged with a foul. If you foul for the sixth time during a game, whether you are on offense or defense, you are out of the game. A foul is also charged if you touch your opponent whether you are on offense or defense. Offense: The opponent is blocking your progress down the court. You have to use alternate keystrokes to bounce the ball and take a step forward, known as dribbling. If you don't bounce the ball after each step, it is a turnover and you are on defense. You have to maneuver around your opponent and catch him off guard to jump up and shoot. The closer you can get to the hoop, the more likely you will score. If you run into your opponent, it is an offensive foul, which is also a turnover. The game is divided into 4 12-minute quarters with a short intermission between the first and second,third and fourth, with a longer intermission between the second and third. --- Shepherds are the best beasts. - Original Message - From: "Jim Kitchen" To: "Matheus" Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 2009 3:10 AM Subject: [Audyssey] Basketball Hi Matheus, Maybe if I ever saw how they did a one on one basketball game for the ps2, I would have an idea as to how to do it.

I do believe that Jaws is now using the sapi5 voices in a different way than my games do. But anyway I hope that one of the below fixes will help get your friends sapi5 voices working again. 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 If it doesn't say Kitchen's Inc on it.

Hi Jim. Well I freely admit I've been lazy about updates recently, owing to being in egypt and taken up with other matters, but all of your stuff including mack 1 is done now.

And to think when I was 9 and we owned an amigar, playing on keyboard was punishment for anyone who cheated! lol! I'll look forward to more games.

Re: [Audyssey] Mach 1 tts
hi jim, I had this idea, I was thinking about when you shift gears and brake, maybe we could have some better sounds, a click for gears and the sounds of tires squealing when you brake? as for the engine volume, the best stage of the engine volume I like is right after you hear 10 and the countdown starts, and then the sapi pretty much doesn't let me hear the engine that much and I like the engine sound. ok I'm off to get my times better at a particular track!

[Audyssey] Basketball
Hi Matheus, Maybe if I ever saw how they did a one on one basketball game for the ps2, I would have an idea as to how to do it. I really don't have any ideas as to how it would go. Maybe part of it is that I have never been into basketball, hockey or soccer.

Hi Lisa, Thank you very much. I'm very happy to hear that you like Mach 1 tts. Maybe when you get practiced up on a track, you could tell me which one and how many laps and we'll compare times here.

Re: [Audyssey] Mach 1 tts
Hi Valiant, All of the sounds in Mach 1 tts should be panning back and fourth as you move left or right in the straightaways or get close to the walls in the turns except for your engine. It does not pan as you are sitting in your car. You can play Mach 1 tts ok even if you can not hear your car engine. Just shift up at 75, 125 and 175. May I ask, does anyone else have a problem with the engine being too quiet? I really didn't want it too loud as the other sounds are more important to listen to for locational purposes.

Re: [Audyssey] Problem with WinKit
Hi Chris, It is probably not a winkit problem, but more of a sapi5 problem. I do believe that Jaws is now using the sapi5 voices in a different way than my games do. But anyway I hope that one of the below fixes will help get your friends sapi5 voices working again. 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 If it doesn't say Kitchen's Inc on it.

Re: [Audyssey] Mach 1 tts
Hi Charles, But the thing is, with the new sound scheme of Mach 1 tts, the sounds tell you which way the next turn will turn and how close you are getting to the start of that turn. Not just driving down a straightaway and all of a sudden a noise tells you that you have just started into a left turn that you didn't even know was coming. The same with the sounds in the turn letting you know how far along in the turn you are. Now if it is just that you liked the wind echo sound better than the crowd sound, I could make that an option.

Re: [Audyssey] Mach 1 tts
Hi Dark, Hey you know I worked my lug nuts off for six months to make Mach 1 tts. So you had six months to get caught up on all of my files. Well except for the ones that I put up last month that people had sent to me. But I have had Mach 1 tts in mind every since I learned the joystick code for Puppy 1. Just to keep you on your toes, I've got a couple of more game ideas in mind. I hope that you like Mach 1 tts. I did try it with my single stick joystick that works great for Puppy 1. It works, but is strange and it is much more fun driving a car with a steering wheel and peddles.
