[Audyssey] programming
Dear members I haad the following idea today: To learn a programming language, you have houndreds of tutorials an books on the net. But there are some things you just can't easily learn from the net. For example: How to make an audiogame with a ship that goes from left to right. I am sure that a professional programmer has to look before he can program it. That's just because you don't learn it in the standard programming books. So my question to audiogame developrs: Would it be possible for you to create some programming tutorials, with a bit basic and also with audio related things? Every developer can write the tutorial in his preffered language. Jim in VB, Thomas or Philip in C++ etc... What do you think?

Re: [Audyssey] programming
Well i agree, but most fokls would not take the time to write a programming tutorial because they probably have better things to do, I don't know. Sometimes this stuff is just logic.

Re: [Audyssey] programming
I think Claudio, this will be answered very much when philip's construction kit is available. Not only will it be audio game focused, but also it will allow you to begin your game creation by taking a basic template of a game and simply playing with variables, before you go on to something more ambicious. So, lets tsay there was a space invaders template. You would not need to worry about things like defigning the enemy ships' position by sterrio pan or wangling about with imput methods for moving left right and shooting, but could, for instance, begin thinking about writing special functions and behaviour for the enemy ships, such as teleporting when Hit. Appologies for answering for philip, but I gather this is how his toolkit will work, and i for one see it as a distinct advantage. Beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] programming
Hi Claudio, Some of what you say is definitely true, but let me make a few clarifications. You say that surely a professional programmer has to look at resources whenever making a new project. This is not always the case, actually. In your example with the ship, for instance, if one already knows a programming language and has access to audio and keyboard functionality it is obvious how to do that ship game without looking at any tutorials or explanations etc. There's indeed a fine line between coming up with new concepts for games and adapting existing ideas by reading, but when a programmer has acquired the skills and the basic tools there's not much tutorial or reading of books involved unless they're trying to branch into a new relm such as advanced artificial intelligence. To summarize, when you know a programming language and have access to the basic game related functionality that you'll need, you will not require any other tutorial than your own imagination. smile. I hope that made sense.

Re: [Audyssey] programming
Hi, This is a good idea and I may take it on this summer concerning .NET and SlimDX development, since with .NET things are sort of all over the place, and message loops are pretty important to understand. I don't think there's a clear-cut audiogame development tutorial--all we can do is show you how to use DirectX, specifically the parts that audiogames will use, namely DirectSound, XAudio2, and DirectInput. Along with this you will also probably find it useful to learn wave structure layouts--that will help you when you decide to feed a game an ogg file and decode it before playing, since there's a big difference between raw wave data and wave with headers. I think all anyone can do is touch on every possible thing an audiogame is likely to have, so I won't focus on force feedback, callibrations, etc. Even DirectSound3D can get complicated since you can't really talk about it without talking about unit vectors and angles. :d. I think it's a good idea though, and am up for the .NET version this Summer. Munawar A.

Re: [Audyssey] Lusternia questions
Hello there, I have played lusternia in the past. It is one of the games by iron realms entertainment. Some people dont like them because of the item system these games employ. I am not a big fan of pvp and I found the iron games quite playable even without doing that. You do not HAVE to pay for the iron realms games. You can do it however and it will bring you credits which you can spend on skills and special artifacts. As far as I know the quests in lusternia are not timed as in some other muds. Greetings, Anouk, On Feb 13, 2010, at 9:33 AM, dark wrote: Hi. I was wondering if anyone played this mudk, sinse i've had a look through the docs and there are several things which seemed possibly interesting to me, but i have several questions too which weren't answered. firstly quests. Yes, I like quests and exploration far more than interacting with other players, and I have a strong dislike of pvp. Are the quests really as numerous as the game claimes? Also, are they timed? The thing which finally drove me off materia magica was the time limit on quests combined with lack of accessible maps. I don't mind hunting around to find place X for a quest, but having to do it within a certain time was down right annoying! I found myself running around like a headless chicken frantically trying to find where the heck I was supposed to go and half of the time not managing it. Even with maps or directions, I'm not sure how much I'd have appreciated timed quests, sinse I tend to like exploring and detouring on the way, though they might have made things easier. Then, is the matter of payment. Lusternia seems to be a commercial game, but I can't for the life of me find out what precisely the price is, or what the associated restrictions or rewards are. Any information would be appreciated. lastly, pvp. How inforced is it in lusternia? and indeed how interesting is the game to play without it? i've seen too many games that say they don't enforce pvp or competition, but then severely run out of things to do if you don't participate in either (legend of the Green dragon anyone?). Any information would be appreciated, not to mention any possible quirks with working with Vip mud too.

Re: [Audyssey] programming
its true you can't learn all programming from the net. I have taken some basic courses at uni. these covered basic conventions, they used pascal and javascript. I also took a course on opperating systems and info systems linux the dos command line and windows. Ok its basic but at least you get the idea. any long course at tech on the next level up requires me to do something in graphical spreadsheeting and so I did not go any further on this line. But at least I know when I look at some code I can roughly guess what is going on. A lot of programmers copy code from samples or use code thats already created. its easier, and if module is already there maybe with a bit of tweaking then calling that is what you do and it works.

Re: [Audyssey] Lusternia questions
Hi. sounds interesting. Out of interest what is the problem people have with items? or is it just the need to contribute creddits to pay for them. Beware the gRue! Dark. - Original Message - From: anouk radix_an...@hotmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Sunday, February 14, 2010 2:58 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Lusternia questions Hello there, I have played lusternia in the past. It is one of the games by iron realms entertainment. Some people dont like them because of the item system these games employ. I am not a big fan of pvp and I found the iron games quite playable even without doing that. You do not HAVE to pay for the iron realms games. You can do it however and it will bring you credits which you can spend on skills and special artifacts. As far as I know the quests in lusternia are not timed as in some other muds. Greetings, Anouk, On Feb 13, 2010, at 9:33 AM, dark wrote: Hi. I was wondering if anyone played this mudk, sinse i've had a look through the docs and there are several things which seemed possibly interesting to me, but i have several questions too which weren't answered. firstly quests. Yes, I like quests and exploration far more than interacting with other players, and I have a strong dislike of pvp. Are the quests really as numerous as the game claimes? Also, are they timed? The thing which finally drove me off materia magica was the time limit on quests combined with lack of accessible maps. I don't mind hunting around to find place X for a quest, but having to do it within a certain time was down right annoying! I found myself running around like a headless chicken frantically trying to find where the heck I was supposed to go and half of the time not managing it. Even with maps or directions, I'm not sure how much I'd have appreciated timed quests, sinse I tend to like exploring and detouring on the way, though they might have made things easier. Then, is the matter of payment. Lusternia seems to be a commercial game, but I can't for the life of me find out what precisely the price is, or what the associated restrictions or rewards are. Any information would be appreciated. lastly, pvp. How inforced is it in lusternia? and indeed how interesting is the game to play without it? i've seen too many games that say they don't enforce pvp or competition, but then severely run out of things to do if you don't participate in either (legend of the Green dragon anyone?). Any information would be appreciated, not to mention any possible quirks with working with Vip mud too.

Subject: [Audyssey] Virus found at l-works.net blog
Hi Liam and all,
After trying to access the l-works.net blog, my antivirus software, Avast,
notifies me that there is a virus on it. After disabling it to make sure
that one of the components of Wordpress wasn't being flagged falsely, I
found to my horror that it began to click me onto many different websites.
As expected, the virus found its way onto my system through temporary
internet files.
The trojan horse in action is named by Avast as JS:Small-C [Trj], and is
to be found at http://l-works.net/blog/\{gzip}
Thanks.
Regards,
Damien.

Re: [Audyssey] Lusternia questions
Hello, items in iron realm games all have a unique number which you sometimes need if there are more of them and you want to refer to a specefic one. I dont mind this because I use braille all the time but people who use speech sometimes find it troublesome. Greetings, Anouk, On Feb 14, 2010, at 6:15 PM, dark wrote: Hi. sounds interesting.

Re: [Audyssey] watership down game.
Everyone does have an opinion, but simply saying everyone has an opinion and utterly dismissing someone else's reasoning is extremely unhelpful. I offered my thoughts there as a matter of discussion, heck, I've been wrong before, ih hopes that you'd offer your reasoning as to why truckz is an rpg, - afterall, sinse it's generally yours truly who sets the classifications for the games on the audiogames.net database this is actually an important issue. Thanks for your thoughts and your kind acknolidgement of my reasoning on this issue, your politeness and open minded approach is overwhelming!

Re: [Audyssey] Lusternia questions
The problem is that each item is assigned a numerical value which it can--and sometimes must--be referenced by. If you have a blue shirt and a red shirt, you can't just type wear red shirt, wear 2.shirt, or wear other shirt. You might actually have to type wear 186423. The numbers are output in a multi-column display that takes some serious navigation. At one point I designed a vipmud script that was able to extrapolate this data into a list, but I lost it when my hard drive crashed. If you're a masochist--see below--I can try to reproduce the script for you. Beyond this, though, there are two things worth pointing out about Lusternia: First, quests are absolutely timed. They're also shared with anyone else who happens to be in the area. This means that if the old woman tells you to kill 3 jellyfish, and you manage to kill 2 while someone else kills the other in the area, you have to wait until the monsters respawn to find a third. By this time, all of the quest variables have reset, and you have to start over completely. Likely the other person in the area is also starting over, so lather, rinse, repeat. Second, while PVP combat isn't required in Lusternia, it's something a fair number of people take part in, and in Lusternia it's a challenge and a half while blind. I am generally the absolute last person who would ever play the blindness card, especially in mud situations, but Lusternia is the rare exception. Each of the more than two dozen guilds has perhaps 50 unique abilities, many of which are used in combat. Each of these abilities can cause one of more than 50 different afflictions, and each of these afflictions has a different herbal, skill, or potion-based cure. In fact the curing system is so advanced that many players have developed custom scripts to automate curing entirely, and these scripts are perfectly legal with the admins. The scripts require higher-level visual basic programming to execute and are mainly accessible via mushclient or zmud. But on top of all that, the walls of text one faces are amazingly high. Imagine going on a raid with 18 other people while all of the npc's and players of the opposing factions are fighting back. We're talking about 3 dozen people all executing commands, performing abilities, casting spells, and generally trying to tear you and one another apart. And because there are hundreds of abilities all being executed at once, you can't exactly gag the extra information. I spent more than $200 on credits and items over the course of my time in Lusternia and ended up having to give it all up when it turned out I just couldn't make combat work regardless of how much script sorcery I employed. If you're looking for something quest intensive, I strongly recommend 3 kingdoms. The basis of 3 kingdoms is that there are ... get this ... 3 kingdoms: fantasy, science, and chaos. Fantasy is your basic swords and sorcery setup--always fun. Science deals with anything technological be it Sci-Fi or modern day. Beginners can troop through an army compound and battle commanders and soldiers, wade through heaps of destruction in a post-apocalyptic battle with mechanized warriors, or tangle with eco-terrorists on an oil field in hopes of defusing the bomb. For everything else, there's chaos. Ever wanted to duke it out against an army of duplo blocks? How about pitting your skills against the cast of mortal kombat characters armed with your trusty Halfling pipe of doom? Now you can! The best part about 3 kingdoms, though, is that quests are required--and some of them are crazily complex, taking literally weeks to complete. Guilds range from warders and necromancers to cybernetic ninjas, Jedi, and battle-suited juggernauts. If you don't want to get involved in PVP, don't; it's optional.

Thanks Ryan, that was illuminating indeed. I'll probably try both, also shaddow dragon has been praising assilem too. I've just finished a huge wodge of work so am looking to relax, and trying muds might do that well enough, especially as sinse I gave up on materia magica and medaevia I actually haven't used vipmud at all.
