[Audyssey] Aurifi
Hi I just listened to Liam's recording of Aurifi and am having the same trouble with the tilt feature and bringing that sound into the middle and keeping it there. There seems to be a certain ammount of lag or delay on the sound moving, no matter how fast or slow I tilt, or sometimes the sound won't move in the time I get, then the calming but anoying message Lets run through that again comes at me and I'm ready to chuck my ipod out the window, or I would if I didn't have such amazing stuff on it. It's the same with evading sounds, the tilt thing seems to do it's own thing and not move in the same direction as I do. I don't know what Liam did to sort it, but would very much like to know. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] OT: changing file system on an external hard drive?
Just so you know when you change a file system. The drive has to be formatted in that system. So any files on the drive will be deleted. The fat32 can be used on big drives but not recommended, because from 32gig past that you can do what is called ghosting the drive. You can put all the files you want and they will be see able. Then if drive goes down or unplugged. you may never see past the 32gig. The file names will be there and folders, but will be errors when trying to access those files. You might want to google PSP and large drives. i think they do have a way to support them. At 06:39 PM 12/30/2010, you wrote: I know I shouldn't ask here, but I need to put isos somewhere. I just got a new external hard drive which is using the ntfs file system, but I want to convert it to fat-32 once I've put everything on it so I can move all my isos over but not lose data in the process. Putting it into fat-32 also doubles as a device for storing stuff on my ps3... how does one do this? Again, sorry for being off-topic. But I couldn't find another place to ask. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Happy New Years day sound from PCS
Hi Thomas, I would have had the Sarah game finished in November if everything had worked out. It all started out with the reducto spell. This spell breaks through walls and bushes and mazes. Well I couldn't allow you to break through the walls of the castle as the walls are actually the edge of the level, but there should be a way to get out of the castle with this spell. So that got me creating a new level, the Hogwarts grounds. Which has lots of creatures and objects to add as the sneek previews show. What I didn't anticipate is that it would take me a few months to create this level as I had to re-think the ending of the game and re-do the Quidditch level extensively. Then came problems with our back up drive. I had been saving all the sounds and changes on this drive keeping the latest version on my C drive. So I had to get a second back up drive to make sure the first one didn't quit on me. This took lots of copying files and putting into folders as I wanted the new back up to be more organized than the original one. For example, on the first backup I have a games folder where all the game downloads are kept. The folder has hundreds of games as I like to keep different versions. But for the new drive I have a games folder that has only the most recent version of each game placed in folders named after the game company, such as PCS and GMA and USA etc. Then our furnace broke and we were without heat for a week at a time when the temperature got very low. We had repair men here four times to replace parts and finally fix the thing. Meanwhile we had to run out and buy electric heaters to heat the house. This disrupted game development for at least two weeks as I couldn't be in the computer room while they were working on the furnace. Next one of my close relatives was getting married near us so the buying of cards presents, parties and eventually wedding ceremony took away valuable game development time. The same could be said for Christmas with relatives visiting and and the buying of Christmas cards and gifts and so forth. The last delay was when both my back up drives went down which was a week ago and we are still waiting for our computer expert to stop by. And just this past week David told me that he had a new version of the GMA engine that would fix some Vista and Windows 7 problems. It now does the panning of sounds similar to the way it did with Windows XP which is the way I wanted them to pan, but he is still checking it out so does not want me to release the new engine until he is done testing. So as you can tell it has been a very frustrating few months.

[Audyssey] Very frustrated, please help!
Hi, This is like the third time I've written on this issue, but I'm not sure if my messages are getting through or not. With that said, I figured I'd try one more time. I just downloaded all of the accessible games from Robert Betz, and I actually bought two of them. I can not get them to run no matter what I do. When I click on the icon in my start menu/desktop, nothing happens. Nothing at all. No errors, nothing on the screen, and it just won't start. I've been at the computer for two days trying to figure out why these won't start, and I'm getting really annoyed. I'm running Windows 7 32 bit. Another thing that is very frustrating is that I actually got them working for a second. If I had just left things alone, they'd probably still be working, but I had to go and mess with things. I learned my lesson. lol I think I downloaded a runtime library that I needed for the games to work, but then they stopped working. Does anyone have any idea on what I can do? I really want to play these games, and while I know there are other versions of Battleship for example, I really would like the ones from Robert Betz. Lastly, he has a new website.

Re: [Audyssey] Very frustrated, please help!
Hi Ryan, First, I don't know if you are aware of this but Microsoft completely dropped support for Visual Basic 6 and earlier in Windows 7. As a result if you want to play the games like Robert's games, which were written in Visual Basic 6, you have to install the full Visual Basic 6 runtime. You also need the Visual Basic 6 components for DirectX 8 which also do not ship with DirectX 9 and do not ship with the Visual Basic runtime. The easiest way to get these components installed is to install Jim Kitchen's Winkit setup program that givews you most of the Windows 9x and XP backward compatibility libraries for Visual Basic.

Re: [Audyssey] Happy New Years day sound from PCS
Hi Phil, Smile. I was just teasing you, but thanks for the update anyway. That sounds like my kind of bad luck. I too have had my share of bad luck coming up when trying to get Mysteries of the Ancients out the door. Believe it or not my projections was to release Mysteries of the Ancients 1.0 this week, but that really got derailed with the Christmas holidays, two weddings, and several other things that reduced my free time to practically zilch left over for game programming. Then, losing two months on trying to figure out why SFML wasn't working didn't help things either. So I'm at least a month or two behind schedule now. We are now looking at a March or April release window. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Very frustrated, please help!
Hi Tom, I have the kitchensinc folder installed, and still nothing. Can you direct me to a place where I can get these files? I'm sure you know more about this then I do. lol -- Original Message -- From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Very frustrated, please help! Date: Sun, 2 Jan 2011 18:16:17 -0500 Hi Ryan, First, I don't know if you are aware of this but Microsoft completely dropped support for Visual Basic 6 and earlier in Windows 7. As a result if you want to play the games like Robert's games, which were written in Visual Basic 6, you have to install the full Visual Basic 6 runtime. You also need the Visual Basic 6 components for DirectX 8 which also do not ship with DirectX 9 and do not ship with the Visual Basic runtime. The easiest way to get these components installed is to install Jim Kitchen's Winkit setup program that givews you most of the Windows 9x and XP backward compatibility libraries for Visual Basic.

With that said, I figured I'd try one more time. I just downloaded all of the accessible games from Robert Betz, and I actually bought two of them. I can not get them to run no matter what I do. When I click on the icon in my start menu/desktop, nothing happens. Nothing at all. No errors, nothing on the screen, and it just won't start. I've been at the computer for two days trying to figure out why these won't start, and I'm getting really annoyed. I'm running Windows 7 32 bit. Another thing that is very frustrating is that I actually got them working for a second. If I had just left things alone, they'd probably still be working, but I had to go and mess with things. I learned my lesson. lol I think I downloaded a runtime library that I needed for the games to work, but then they stopped working. Does anyone have any idea on what I can do? I really want to play these games, and while I know there are other versions of Battleship for example, I really would like the ones from Robert Betz. Lastly, he has a new website.

[Audyssey] BGT Key_down and Key_Pressed Incompitability
greetings Philip et al. For some reason, the Key_down and Key_pressed functions won't seem to work together on my system. For example, many of the tutorials terminate the example with left alt+f4, but whenever I hit that key combination, nothing happens. I can change the function to just a key pressed event and it'll work fine, but the key down event plus the key pressed event refuses to cooperate. anyone else having this issue or a solution thereof?

Re: [Audyssey] BGT Key_down and Key_Pressed Incompitability
It has to do with direct input What I usually do is change that to look for escape instead of alt f4, then I hold down shift and press escape. It is much easier if you don't use jaws, but of course this isn't always an options. -Original Message- From: gamers-boun...@audyssey.org [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of Kai Sent: Sunday, January 02, 2011 7:48 PM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: [Audyssey] BGT Key_down and Key_Pressed Incompitability greetings Philip et al.

Re: [Audyssey] BGT Key_down and Key_Pressed Incompitability
Greetings Liam. I actually just edited the function to look for a key pressed event with escape. Was simpler than having a two-step check.

Re: [Audyssey] BGT Key_down and Key_Pressed Incompitability
Well. Personally I would not have jaws sleep in case you get errors. I just did some testing. With jaws loaded. You can hold down the windows key along with alt and it will work. Again. This is how jaws acts with direct input. This is why in my games I am now adding I k j and l as alternate navigational keys. It does not seem to effect letters. -Original Message- From: gamers-boun...@audyssey.org [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of Kai Sent: Sunday, January 02, 2011 8:14 PM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] BGT Key_down and Key_Pressed Incompitability Greetings Liam.
