Re: [Audyssey] collection of accessible emulators for the blind

[Ken the Crazy]

Well, judging by the low volume of traffic on the list today, everybody 
seems to be playing it lol.  It's not just mame though.  The mame emulator 
is only one of about four or five.

I have been playig with the MAME emulator for years now.
The only real problem I ran into was when new version of MAME came out to 
emulatore newer arcade roms, some of the rolder game roms stopped working 
and would not even show up in the MAME list of roms on your system.
I solved this by putting roms onto a DVD with all versions of MAME that I 
had.
If I wished to play a certain arcade game, I might have to change fromone 
MAME to the next till the game showed up int he game list.
MAME was cute in that you had to put quarters intot he 
emulator...grin...to start up a game.

I found all versions of MAME to work fine with Jaws.
So it will be interesting to try this blind accessible version this thread 
is talkign about?

Re: [Audyssey] Monkey business was shell shock

[dark]

Hi Karl.

I'd rather not monkey about with game code (ha ha), sinse in fact this 
always feels a bit too much like cheating to me as opposed to using cheats 
which the developer actually put into the game.


There's no reason why but this is my feeling on the matter.

However, thanks a lot for the skip level code, that one will deffiantely 
come in handy.


Beware the grue!

Dark, if you press left control, right shift and the ` key at the same 
time, you can skip the current level. This will enable you to try the 
other levels, and you can always go back and restarting the game.
There is a way to access any level you want, as well as effecting your 
inventory, but I'd rather not discuss that on list as it involves the 
registry. If your interested, please write me off list.

[Audyssey] Sound Voyager

[Ken the Crazy]

Okay, I guess I haven't come near to winning all those games--haven't even seem 
them all apparently.
I read the overview on audiogames, but I've come across a game with cuckoo-like 
sounds.  I can usually catch one, but time runs out before I get to the next 
one.  Any tricks or tips?

[Audyssey] Neospeech Voices was Pull

[Thomas Ward]

Hi Philip,

For what its worth I don't understand it either. When I was writing my
engine in C# .Net, using Sapi as a com object, I had no problems with
the Neospeech voices. However, when I converted to C++ and added Sapi
5 support just exactly according to the Microsoft API documentation
Neospeech broke. I don't think it is necessarily a problem with BGT
specifically, but something wrong with the Neospeech voices
themselves. I never could understand why they work ok with VB .Net and
C# .Net, but not at all with C++.


Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] iphone game skee ball

[Thomas Ward]

Hi Charles,

Definitely a good point. If people write companies with the  usual
sloppiness they write to the list they are going to be ignored. Most
companies are going to take one glance at a sloppy message and write
you off as not very bright/intelligent. Since we are trying to get
them to make modifications for a specialized group, the blind, imagine
what their general opinion of blind gamers are going to be if they get
a few extremely sloppy messages with gramatical errors, spelling
errors, etc.First impressions are everything when trying to open a
dialog with a company.

Cheers!

Hey, If any of you know what skee ball is then their is one for the 
iphone.  But the problem is the game is not accessible for the blind what 
I mean is voice over won't work with the game.
If I had alot of you would help me keep at the company that make this game 
to make it work with vocie over that would be great.  The only problem I 
am having with this game is the buttons and text and tickets and how many 
more balls you have is not label also the prizes anc score is not label 
aswell.
I found out it does not cost anything to make the game work with voice 
over.  So please help me if we keep sending more then one email a day then 
they will get tire of us and they will hopefully reply to our problem.

The email for the company is supp...@freeverse.com
If they give you a email address that is informat...@freeverse.com then 
keep sending your messeges to the first email address I gave.

Dark, if you press left control, right shift and the ` key at the same time, 
you can skip the current level. This will enable you to try the other levels, 
and you can always go back and restarting the game.
There is a way to access any level you want, as well as effecting your 
inventory, but I'd rather not discuss that on list as it involves the registry. 
If your interested, please write me off list.

Re: [Audyssey] Monkey business was shell shock

[dark]

That makes sense tom, and would very much explain why I do so badly at the 
game, sinse mental mapping and spacial exercizes are something my brain 
simply does not do at the best of times.


There is a physiological reason for this due to brain damage caused at my 
birth, and generally I find that use of my memory and a system of land marks 
can get me around most things (including mobility in everyday life), 
extremely well, however in mb I completely failed at this.


Imho Josh should really! look at bringing the game up to the same standard 
of navigation we've seen in the other first person titles.


Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Monkey business was shell shock

[Karl Belanger]

I agree that level navigation can sometimes be difficult. That said, the
Aztec level is probably my favorite out of the whole game. The final level
comes in a close second, but is somewhat simplistic after the other levels.

Hi Dark,

Although, I'm pretty good at FPS games I found Monkey Business rather
disorienting the first few times I played it as well. Eventually, I got the
hang of it, but as you said relying totally on audio won't help much. The
only way I really got the hang of Monkey Business is by creating a mental
map of the levels and could get around pretty much by memory. That made
catching monkies easier because I remembered I'd have to walk around a
stone, tree, etc and could use those stationary items as landmarks. They
also could be used to hide, and you could jump out from behind a tree or
stone to catch the monkeies as they pass buy. The absolutely worst level is
the ledges level. I've never beaten it just by exploring it. Instead I've
had to memorize it step by step to successfully get passed it.

[Audyssey] The Addictor Addicted

[Ken the Crazy]

Man, I should have never started playing with these emulators.  I started 
playing Sound Revolution, beat all the games, don't know that to do next--but 
this one audio catcher game goes on and on and on, and some of the music it 
makes is nearly hypnotic and certainly addictive, and I never know what sounds 
are going to mix next.
I also tried Rhythm to Go but it seems a bit boring.  My son has a game boy 
advanced--guess I'm going to have to steal it from him and get some of these 
games!

Re: [Audyssey] Monkey business was shell shock

Hi Phil.

Actually, following the professor was never the bit I had trouble with and 
did it first time I played the game.


I just waited for the professor to get a bit ahead then kept his footsteps 
or humming in the center of my sterrio field, occasionally adjusting with 
either right and left arrows or ctrl arrows,  much as in fact I do when 
doing the follow the truck mission in tank commander.


sinse there isn't much other sound going on at the time it's fairly easy to 
isolate the prof from everything else.


it's the jungle that really gives me trouble.

firstly, the tracking of sound sources seems amazingly imprecise. Frequently 
I'll here an object bleep in my locator of say the sword or a coin, center 
it, walk towards it and go right past.


Then, the placement of sounds relative to obstacles seems very dodgy. 
Frequently I'll here something but not be able to get to it and go slamming 
into a tree, this is true of both stationary objects, and moving ones and 
makes catching monkies a right royal pest. For someone who navigates by 
markers and directional memory rather than by actually creating a mental map 
of the terrain, this is frankly a nightmare, because it means I cannot 
accurately work out where sound markers of certain things are and plan 
routes around that without slamming head on into something.


Just to make things even harder, there is no handy backup as in the gma 
engine of things like scan or object identity menues, so I can't get a 360 
or 180 scan around me,  the sonar I find nearly useless.


Finally, it seems the engine has no distinction betwene forground sound 
sources eg, object sounds or purely sound objects which move in the 3D 
field, and background ones, ie, constant ambience. Everything seems to have 
the same volume, which makes distinguishing one from the other a right pest.


this is why, even with the manual description, I find the jungle and the 
game generally so hard to play,  pluss of course there are a few 
mechanical issues with the game, such as the way you can't swing your 
net,  or even actually navigate very well, while swimming, it always 
seems when I'm just about to gnab one of those bloody monkies it dives into 
the river, and not only can I not use my net but I end up getting 
disorientated and swept of somewhere else,  often to my doom!


Actually Phil, even though Sarah is probably a more complex game overall, 
especially in terms of many sound objects, I find it far easier to play 
owing to the good sound positioning and distinction, handy review commands 
and precise location of sounds in the Gma engine.

[Audyssey] Monkey business was shell shock

[Phil Vlasak]

Hi Dark,
When Monkey business came out I talked to James about the problem finding 
door openings.

The problem is when you are walking down a hall you don't hear into a room
until the sound of it is exactly to your left or right.
So if you are following someone such as the professor, and they start moving
to the left and you follow their sound, you will end up hitting the wall as
they go through the doorway.
One thing I did was not to follow his sound exactly. In other words if his
sound moves to the left I still go straight, until I hear his sound directly
left. Then I turn to face him and run faster to catch up.
James planned to put indicators to the edges of doors such as security
cameras to let you know where the door frames were.
But this did not happen.
Phil

Ah, rather weerd it doesn't work, perhaps if someone like Phil knows Josh
they could give him a poke on this subject, and on the matter of 3D sound.

Compared to the Gma engine or terraformers, Monkey business seems to me so
imprecise as to be unplayable.

in fact I think it's probably the only audio game I slightly regret buying
sinse the confusing sound pluss my general trouble with spacial navigation
means I've never got anywhere in it.

At the time I bought it, there was no demo and I was going on Kelly
sepergia's review which, while an exceptionally good review really didn't
show the difficulty I would have with the 3D navigation in the game, sinse
Kelly was a lot better at it than I am ;D.

Stil I can always practice, and this way if Josh ever does improve things
I have a copy.

Re: [Audyssey] Alien allies, --- batteries?

[dark]

well i have noticed a rather wise difference in models, --- -I bought one 
which was a nightmare, sinse it had some ridiculous programming settings 
involved and lots of extra stupid buttons.


it was so bad once it's batteries went the first time, I actually couldn't 
get it working again.


But with a good model I've found wireless keyboards very reliable. Batteries 
for me last a good six weeks or so, and I always keep a spare set in just in 
case.
I think the thing I like best about it is lying on my settee using Hal to do 
stuff, whether that's playing games, going on the net, listening to music or 
even writing my thesis (yes, I can work lying down ;d).


the pickup will even stretch as far as my kitchin, so I can do things like 
take my keyboard with me and controll audio or my computer while I'm washing 
up.


I've never had quite as much success with wireless headphones,  either 
in terms of signal strength or sound quality, however the cable on my 
extremely good sanheisar ones is about six foot long, which is more than 
long enough to comfortably reach my settee, so playing audio games or 
listening to radio plays or music while lying down is rather nice.


in fact when I stil lived in colidge, because I had one of those student 
study bedrooms, I could actually run my computer whilst lying in 
bed, --- -just for ultra laziness!

Re: [Audyssey] pull

[Philip Bennefall]

Hi all,

This bug baffles me. I am using Sapi exactly as listed in the Microsoft SDK 
documentation, and since most voices work just fine I don't see how I can do 
things very differently. One thing I have been thinking about is rewriting 
the wrapper to use the Active X interface instead rather than interacting 
with Sapi directly, in other words do it the same way as scripting languages 
like JavaScript or Autoit would do it when you instanciate the spVoice 
object. Whether this will actually make a difference, however, I do not 
know.


Kind regards,

Philip Bennefall

Hi Michael,

Pull was written by TJ Squires, and I don't remember his e-mail

game.

However, there is nothing TJ can do about the Neospeech problem. It is
a well known bug with BGT itself, and until Philip Bennefall fixes it
every game written with BGT will have the Neospeech problem. You'll
just have to use a different Sapi voice I'm afraid.

Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Alien allies, --- batteries?

[dark]

Well Tom, i did actually get my revenge.

I replayed the game the other day and completed it. Sadly not doing as well 
on some stages (though I did get a bonus stage on the 4th level).


My fight against The mother alien was actually pretty funny because I'd 
grabbed three rapid fire power ups in the level before, and sinse those 
bomber ships are better to snipe with one hit I'd got loads of it left.


I actually felt a litle sorry for the Mother ship, it didn't stand a chance 
and was dead in about ten seconds ;D.


Overall my score was about 31 million, which seems okay, though I'll have to 
try the game again on one of the higher difficulties and see how well it 
goes.


Beware the Grue!

Dark.

Re: [Audyssey] pull

[Thomas Ward]

Hi Michael,

Pull was written by TJ Squires, and I don't remember his e-mail
address. However, I believe  it is in the readme that comes with the
game.

However, there is nothing TJ can do about the Neospeech problem. It is
a well known bug with BGT itself, and until Philip Bennefall fixes it
every game written with BGT will have the Neospeech problem. You'll
just have to use a different Sapi voice I'm afraid.

Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] shell shock

[Thomas Ward]

Hi Dark,

A carnival level? No, there was never one of those in Monkey Business.
I heard someone was thinking about adding one, but it never was added.
However, the Wild West is definitely one of the game levels, and for
some reason when Draconis took over that level stopped working. As for
the 3d sounds it definitely could have been improved.

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts on Community Projects

[Thomas Ward]

Hi Shaun,

Welll, in my experience the command prompt window is not much
different than running MS Dos. When I play Adrift games via Scare
Window-Eyes reads all the new text as soon as it comes up on screen.
Diddo for frotz. I don't have to use any review cursors to read the
new text unless I missed something and need to read it again.I suppose
this probably depends on screen reader implamentation though. However,
I myself have no problems playing text games in Windows as Window-Eyes
is pretty good at reading new text in the command prompt window. The
only apps that give me problems is Winfrotz, Adrift, and Wintads as
those require a review cursor where the Dos versions are more
accessible.

Cheers!

No. there is no ending to the game. You basically keep shooting glass

Re: [Audyssey] Alien allies, --- batteries?

Hi,

Yeah, no kidding. I use to use a wireless mouse and keyboard, but I
found them unreliable. They would always go dead when I needed it
most. So ended up purchasing a USB mouse and keyboard instead.

Re: [Audyssey] Sound FX contest

[shaun everiss]

Hmmm listened to the sounds.
The siron and drill and in fact most of them sound like one of those 
electric drills.
These have been in sound libraries, but I think my dad has a drill 
like that sort of, its probably a battery drill of some sort since an 
electric can't make that noise though it could be that to.

It could be a small or medium drill.
The first skyfi sound had some elements, also some bell and maybe a door.
The second did not download right and the decoder had issues with 
decoding but it sounded like a bird maybe with drill elements in it.

Here's the deal--I'm running a contest.  If any of you can guess how

Oh, and I don't want answers like, "Well, you took some sound, 
applied a Doppler affect, put in some nasty sounding reverb, added

That's all obvious.  What I want to see is if you can figure out 
what's underneath the editing.  I'll give you one hint: I didn't 
just record a dentist's drill and modify it.  That would be 
cheating.  I recorded, right from my own home, any of the sounds you 
hear that are NOT synthesized--but which ones...

yes we are.
Though to be fair, in the old dos days I got imersed in a story, let 
it run and it did.
Now I need to go to my review curser to hear text and then out of it 
to put in dcommands.
Though I still paly text games ocationally it never feels like I can 
fully get involved like I used to.

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts on Community Projects

[shaun everiss]

well on the ffproject.com site most calculations are done for you and 
you select different options via link, obviously you have no control 
where you go and you can't always go back but you still need to make 
critical decisions.

These are good but I haven't touched  the site  for a number of months.
Firstly due to life etc I have not had the energy to actually bother with it.
THen there is only so much of that I can play, though I may just 
check it again now I am thinking about it.

The engine it uses is quite good.
maybe you should see about using that system.
Its quite basic but all dice roles are done.
At 03:28 a.m. 22/03/2011, you wrote:

Hi Ken and all,

Well, one way to get interested in text-based RPG games is to try a
few out. I'd go to
http://www.srith.com
and sign up for a free membership. It isn't as good as a full guild
membership, but it might give you an idea of the type of gamebook
system I'm thinking of.It is fairly sstraight forward all things
considered.

As far as remembering hot keys etc don't worry about that. I was
thinking of using menus with shortcut keys asigned so that wouldn't be
like the kinds of text adventure games you are thinking of were you
have to type commands like "north" "south" "east" "west" and all that.
Generally, keys like n, s, e, and w will move in those directions.
However, as I said I was mainly thinking of some sort of menu system
were you simply select the action to do from a list and it does it
rather than trying to remember complex commands etc.

From what I'm reading here I think a lot of you don't really
understand exactly of what I'm thinking of so let me try and explain
the idea more in detail if I can. I think that might answer your
questions ahead of time.

Essentially, what I'm thinking of is a text-based gamebook adventure
system similar to other gamebook  style roll playing games where you
select a list of predefined characters from a list of super heroes,
and then you'll enter the game and select an adventure to play. Like
many roll playing games you'll have certain skills you need to train
up as you play the game. For example, Batman might start out with
unarmed combat, stealth, weaponry since those are the skills he
generally uses when battling enemies. As you play you will gather up
general experience points which you can allocate to combat, weaponry,
and stealth to improve his skills. Superman on the other hand will
start out with special powers such as heat vision, freeze breath, and
x-ray vision. The higher you train Superman's powers the better his
x-ray vision will be or the easier his heat vision will cut through
walls etc. If playing Wonder Woman the higher her weaponry skill is
the more effective she is at blocking enemy attacks with her magic
bracelets. That's pretty much how training skills and powers will
work.

Obviously, since the roll playing game comes from the standpoint of an
untrained hero or heroine the game stories will range from beginner to
expert levels of challenge. You won't be able to unlock an adventure
involving Dark Seid or Mongul until you have reached a certain skill
level or power level to actually fight one of the higher bosses in the
game. Instead your first adventures will probably deal with petty
criminals like muggers, bank robbers, or basic game bosses like Cat
Woman who has no special powers or abilities. So in that way the game
play is balanced and you won't accidently be biting off more than you
can chew at once.

As I've mentioned navigation will be simple. What you'll get is a
screen of text followed by a basic menu of options you can take from
this location such as enter city hall, visit the museum,  visit star
labs, rrest, whatever. It won't involve typing in complex commands,
using maps, or any of the other things I've seen over the past couple
of days. The user interface will hopefully be designed to be simple
stupid.


Finally, besides what I've mentioned above one of the aims of making
this free and open source is so that the project is portible and can
be run on various devices such as a Windows PC, Linux PC, Macbook,
IPhone, etc. For that reason using a text-based user interface is
perfect because it can be compiled on virtually anything and run from
almost any device. At the moment I'm considering C or C++ for that
very reason. You can use native libraries without having to worry
about third-party runtime libraries like Java, .Net, or Python. Any
thoughts?

Even though many of you aren't programmers you can help in other ways.
Even though I might use the source books as a guide I'd rather write
my own game adventures. Perhaps some of you who are familiar with the
comic books or the Justice League comics like Justice League Unlimited
will be able to submit story ideas, add suggestions, or make
suggestions for your favorite super hero or villain.

For example, right now I've been writing down a list of what I believe
to be the most popular DC Comics super heroes. Feel free to add to the
list

Hey all,
As far as roll playing games, the text version doesn't sound bad, 
but what would really kick butt, in my oppinion, is a game like that 
set up on Teamtalk, played live and with a real DM.  For me it's 
just hard to feel I'm in a game when it's a screen reader reading 
out everything, and I'm as concerned with moving the cursors around, 
trying to remember that right hot key and so on.  (Guess I got way 
overdone with text adventure games?)  When I was a teen I played D&D 
a few times, and loved it--and never really found that level of 
enjoying other games since.  I remember feeling such a part of the 
d&d world that I starting using my cane more like a staff for a 
while--mainly just for fun, but there was that feeling...
However, I've never played the text-based role playing games like 
you're talking about, so it might be fun too.  I know that playing 
Supedrman would just absolutely rock!

Re: [Audyssey] collection of accessible emulators for the blind

[Matheus r.c. souza]

Hi Dark.
In the case of you having the consoles, there's no point in having a
emulator to run the games, the original versions will be always better.
although i can say that the emulators are working pretty good, since
these consoles are old like the psx, snes etc, you don't even need a
awesome system to run the games, and all of then that i tested worked
perfectly(at least the sound) and run really fast.
i strongly recommend you try the psx emulator with some of the games
i'll post in these packs of games, there are lots of fun stuff there to
try.

Thus, the rom's you can run on it are only those of arcade games, be that
Tron, the simpsons beat em up or something else.

Sinse back in the 80's and 90's, many games like golden axe and double
dragon also had ports on consoles like the Snes and Mega drive, this means
there are some duplications sinse games like double dragon came out as
coinops on those systems, though there are often advantages in playing games
both on the arcade system and on the console version.

for instance, Arcade golden axe has better sound and graphics than any of
it's console ports, however Mega drive golden axe has a duel mode, a last
level, and far more options in the game.

Then of course there were many games that never had arcade originals
before, --- -Mario brothers 2, the Turrican series, the donkey Kong country
games on the snes etc, so you won't find these on mame.

Myself, Mame is the only emulator I've ever got into running being as I
personally own a snes and mega drive anyway, and playing on the original
console is far easier than running emulators.

i've also done amigar emulation, though only to play original turrican games
sinse Amigar emulation (as your emulating an actual computer not just a
games system), is far more complicated.

Generally I find emulators extremely buggy and tempramental, and some roms
may or may not work, so though I've had some fun playing a couple of arcade
classics like the Turtles walk along beat em up game and arcade double
dragon, it's not something I tend to bother with,  especially
considdering that a lot of ports of older games are available in far more
stable versions on consoles, for instance the Nes classics series on the
gameboy advanced which I can run on my gamecube through the gba player.

Running old games is chiefly what I'd be interested in getting a wii for,
though as I've said I've never found a sufficiently workable way of using
the annoying menues enough to run a game once I had it.

[Audyssey] RSGames Client

[Damien Pendleton]

Hey guys,
Have any of you had any trouble with the RSGames Client menu system? I am 
playing Monopoly and am having problems when I can't afford a property and it 
asks me to manage my assets to pay off the owed money. When I mortgage my 
properties it says invalid choice and the menus start nesting each other. I 
have tried doing an admin chat and have also attempted to contact Ryan via both 
email and MSN and have received no response.
Is there a fix for this or is it being worked on?
Thanks for any assistance.
Regards,
Damien.

[Audyssey] old games was, shell shock

[dark]

While I appreciate from a programmers point of view that you want the latest 
and best version of something available and don't want your old work kicking 
around, as a player it always strikes me as A, slightly sad, and B, a litle 
pointless when a game is taken down especially when it had some merrit.


if it's replaced by a more advanced version of the same game,  fair 
enough, but there are very few games that have so litle merrit their totally 
not worth playing, especially with the limited number of audiogames 
available, which is one reason you get requests for games like shellshock, 
supershot self destruct etc,  though interestingly enough this situation 
is changing as bgt allows more people to create simple arcade style games.


This is alsow why i personally will not be getting rid of my final beta of 
montizumas return whatever the legal scumbags say, sinse even though Mota is 
undoubtedly a better game, Monti is stil worth playing, and it's level 
layout, as well as elements like electric fields which have not yet shown up 
in another game make it unique enough for me to want to keep.


In fact were it not likely to get Tom into trouble, I'd post up both a setup 
file of the last beta and my unlock code so that people could play all 
levels that Tom made.


I won't however be doing this for obvious reasons, though i do think it's 
rather a shame that all! tom's work there is wasted even if he's doing 
something better now,  one reason why I'd like to see the title sound 
replaced with a generic name (miktanticutli's vengence? ;d), and the game 
with all levels unlocked or with a keygen stuck up as a free download, just 
so that it's unique elements, ie, level design and those features not 
present in Mota or other titles (which up until recently included vanishing 
platforms), aren't completely lost.


Beware the grue!

Dark.

Re: [Audyssey] shell shock

[dark]

There's a rather long winded but useable audio walkthru of the game on blind 
cool tech if I remember rightly.


it was listening to this which basically told me what the game was 
about,  though I'm afraid I confess it also slightly put me off wanting 
to play it sinse it struck me as a rather slow, and not precisely 
interesting game based mostly upon a combination of trial and error and some 
basic mathematics which all in all didn't strike me as too interesting.


if you like the game though,  fair enough.

Hi Hayden,

Yes, I figured it out a long time ago. I can't exactly tell you how
but as Charles said there are three things you have to do in order to
hit the enemy island. You have to calculate the proper angle of the
shot, the distance to the target, the speed of your shot, and factor
that by the wind resistance. In other words it is helpful to have a
calculator nearby as you'll have to calculate the physics of each shot
to hit the enemy target. That's the real challenge of the game. The
manual should have a better explanation of how to calculate the shots
correctly.

Weerdly enough I never knew there was! a wild west level until someone 
mentioned it to me, sinse it's also missing in the documentation,  I've 
also heard people talk about a carnival level though i'm not sure if that 
was planned or not.


perhaps someone who knows Josh could suggest to him he fixes these,   
though given my general badness at monkey business owing to the rather dodgy 
3D sound navigation in that game, it probably doesn't matter anyhow sinse 
for some reason I can stil! never get past the jungle.


Actually that's something else it'd possibly be nice for Josh to think about 
fixing while we're talking about doing things in the game.

Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts on Community Projects

[Thomas Ward]

Hi Jim,

I know how you feel. I started learning to program in 1998 and 1999,
and things were definitely easier when I could do something like
printf ("Hello world!\n");
and have the text immediately written to the screen. Of course, as you
said with true Dos there was no way to really get audio support.
However, with DirectX you could use DirectSound or XAudio2 with the
Command Prompt window to have text and audio if you wanted.
Unfortunately, now days most people expect a window, even if it is an
empty one, to contain the contents of the game.

P.S.

As for Pat Benatar concerts I definitely agree with you on that score.
I went to se Pat Benatar several years ago at Blossom Music and the
consert was extremely loud. I was losing my sight at the time so we
got tickets to sit up close so I could see her and the band up close.
Thing was the amplifiers were so loud I thought my ears were going to
split. However, the concert was awesome.

Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] shell shock

[Thomas Ward]

Hi Phil,

Makes sense. I've thought about taking STFC down for similar reasons,
but as most people know how to get .Net and Managed DirectX setup now
I figured I'll leave it up until version 2.0 is ready. I know full
well how frustrating it is to have old software laying around that is
sorely in need of immediate upgrading. STFC II will be a major
improvement since it is cross platform and written in C++.

Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] shell shock

HI Charles,

Correct. Shellshock was actually an accessible version of a mainstream
game that was similar. At the moment I can't remember the original
game James based Shellshock off of, but needless to say it isn't an
original idea. Its the kind of generic game anyone could whip up and
clone without copyright issues.

Re: [Audyssey] shell shock

Hi,

Well, as far as Monkey Business goes the ESP version was better. Ever
since Draconis took it over there has been the bug with the Wild West
level. It doesn't load unless you manually go in and copy and paste
certain files where they should go and then it loads. Draconis should
seriously consider a patch to correct this behavior as the ESP version
worked fine.

you can also get 7zip from  http://www.7zip.com/

I actually use it as my main zipping and unzipping program, sinse it's very 
symple to use (you can do it from the applications menue in windows 
explorer), had a great compression wrate as Tom says, and also has lots of 
nice options,  like if your unzipping multiple folders, it can put 
everything into propper individual folders, or into another location, or 
just stick everything where the zip files are.


it's also great for alerting you of broken files in the archive or similar 
as well.


I'm a big fan of it myself, I just wish more people new about and used it so 
that I could compress stuff in the 7z format more often without getting lots 
of questions.


Beware the grue!

Dark.

Hi Michael,

The 7z file format is a zip format used by 7zip. The 7zip archive
utility is free and isn't full of spyware, extra taskbars, and any of
that crap. It is simply an archive tool like Winzip, Winrar, etc, but
unlike Winzip and Winrar it is totally free. The 7z format also has a
huge improvement in compression over rar and zip as well.

What's a 7z file format?  Will I have to download something that
will fill my system with spyware, plague me with spam from that time on,
bog down my system with taskbars I don't want and/or "Really Neat!"
utilities that will slow my system to a standstill, and last but not
least, how many advertizements and websites will I have to look through
before I find an actual working download link?
