Re: [Audyssey] Important Notice For All List Members
Hi tom. I'm just catching up on my E-mails after a telephone down time and a miner but nasty illness (one is fixed, the other not quite), so congrats on this Tom. I'd certainly be interested in assisting with the new site, perhaps contributing some content if I could, but I'll wait to let things settle down first. so, a big thanks to Raul for handling this beast for the last few years, and the same to yourself for taking it on full time. all the best, Dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Inquiri on Extant.
Hi Michale. Yes, you can certainly die in the extant demo, also you can pick up health packs in the various locations. All the runing around blasting zombies bit is fine, there is however no way to progress the game, and no other enemies besides those you fight, though hopefully Richard and Sander will expand the game at some point since it is an interesting idea.

Re: [Audyssey] Extant help.
Hi Michael. Extant was developed by Richard vantol and Sander huberts, the webmasters of audiogames.net. you can post any questions about the game on the audiogmaes.net forum, or just ask (they do check this list), however also remember extant is a tech demo. you can run around, shoot zombies, find the different builtdings and pick up power upsups but that is pretty much it. It is not possible to complete the game or even progress, since this was just intended as a demo to show how the game might work. Hopefully we'll be seeing a more complete game in the future.

It is really very simple. If you can't be arsed to make your message clear and easy to read, why should I bother trying. Unclear writing indicates unclear thinking, and in my world of limited time, I am only going to bother with someone who makes a good faith effort to communicate. If that's arrogance, so be it, but my time is valuable.

There is quite a lot a person could use with markup languages to give the magazine a professional look, and make it easier to search for content that is of interest to the reader rather than loading it in Notepad or Gedit and searching for x number of plus signs. For example, if I wanted to jump directly to the news section I could go to the Table of Contents, find the link for News, click on that and the anchor tags imbedded in the document will take me directly to the beginning of the news section. Not sure how Ron feels about all this, but I for one think it would be a nice idea. At least for the website if not for redistribution to the list itself. Cheers!

Hi Tom. On the html mag front I totally and completely agree. As well as the advantages you mention, it would also be possible to post links directly to developers websites or demos and save people from using copy and paste. My only question about an html mag would be how would submissions work? Would people have to submit articles in html? i don't mind doing this myself, but other people's mileage may vary, and I know myself how wonky html can go if the tag's aren't used correctly, plus you wouldn't want to scare off some none programmer who might be a good article writer (since html sounds far more complex than it actually is when you explain it's uses to people, I know this having written a guide for editing the audiogames.net site database). On the other hand, sitting and adding html tags to a peace of text is one extra job that you as editer may not want to do, especially with articles that may contain many links or be extremely long. Do you have a quicker way of converting things? All the best, Dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Important Notice For All List Members
Hi dark, definately feel for you there. As I type this I am staring at the wreckage of 2 phone units, one of which will work again maybe the other is dead. This has made communications a bit harder, also one of the remote places I do family work for has a dead printer wo as you can imagine getting that replaced will be another nightmare. So I know the heartake. At 11:38 PM 3/8/2013, you wrote: Hi tom.

Re: [Audyssey] Extant help.
well dark extant though in its concept is quite crap the idea is good.

Re: [Audyssey] Important Notice For All List Members
yeah, one thing I'd like would to be some sort of rss feads if we ever got audyssey to a blog platform as that sertainly would move the magazine to the modern thing. on that note if we ever did reviews I'd be happy to test and review products from devs and stuff for free for mags and other casting its always ben my passion and one I try to keep going. Over the winter months its likely with all my issues that if I end up unable to do anything but still text on here then playing games well thats what I will do. At 01:07 AM 3/9/2013, you wrote: Hi Shaun, As Audiogames.net already has a forum I see no need to add one to Audyssey.org. That really would be reinventing the wheel, and one thing that has always set us apart is the fact we are a mailing list where Audiogames.net chose to use a forum. I would rather keep the mailing list available than switch to a forum for the primary reason not everyone likes forums. Some people prefer mailing lists over forums, and some people prefer forums over mailing lists. Some people such as myself is happy with either one. In either case people who are into lists will be drawn to Audyssey and those that are into a forum will go to Audiogames.net. As for a Dropbox account I see that as a bad idea. Dropbox will cut people off when the download limit is reached so even if someone put up a demo, podcast, or whatever after x number of users downloaded it they would get the typical sorry, download limit was reached message which makes it unsuitable for a mass sharing service. As far as Teamtalk etc I haven't looked into it, and one deciding factor will be how well supported it is on non-Windows systems. A number of our community now have switched to Mac OS, and many have iOS devices like iPhones and IPads. A few, such as myself use Linux, so obviously whatever voice chat software we use has to be available to everyone or not at all. As admin of Audyssey one of my goals will be to insure that everyone regardless of OS or device can be a part of the bigger community. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Audyssey Magazine improvement and advancement - Re: Important Notice For All List Members
Hi Dark, On the matter of submitting articles for the magazine articles would not have to be submitted in html. That can easily be done by the editor after the magazine is edited and ready to release to the Audyssey community. Which brings me to my second point. These days it isn't absolutely necessary to manually tag a document by hand. there are plenty of tools that can do this for someone. For instance, most word processors such as OpenOffice Writer, LibreOffice Writer, and Microsoft Word can export documents to html. This would save the editor massive amounts of time because if he or she formatted the document using standard word processor formatting and then exported it to html it would convert it from rtf, doc, or docx to html which would save time. All that might need to be done by hand is add a table of contents and anchor tags to jump to various sections while the main body of the document has already been tagged by the word processor during the export process. That said, I hate some of the tags Word uses, but that's a different matter. Cheers! On 3/8/13, dark d...@xgam.org wrote: Hi Tom. On the html mag front I totally and completely agree. As well as the advantages you mention, it would also be possible to post links directly to developers websites or demos and save people from using copy and paste. My only question about an html mag would be how would submissions work? Would people have to submit articles in html? i don't mind doing this myself, but other people's mileage may vary, and I know myself how wonky html can go if the tag's aren't used correctly, plus you wouldn't want to scare off some none programmer who might be a good article writer (since html sounds far more complex than it actually is when you explain it's uses to people, I know this having written a guide for editing the audiogames.net site database). On the other hand, sitting and adding html tags to a peace of text is one extra job that you as editer may not want to do, especially with articles that may contain many links or be extremely long. Do you have a quicker way of converting things? All the best, Dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

There is a big difference in no games being released that you are personally interested in, and in no games being released at all. From the sounds of your earlier post you made it sound as though there were no games at all released in 2012 which wasn't true. For example, I do not as yet own an iPhone or iPad so obviously can not take advantage of the various games released for iOS. Even though I personally have no interest in those games right now I am perfectly willing to count them as game releases I could potentially play if I had the right hardware and software. In other words I don't just write them off, and say there was nothing released this year since that isn't exactly true.

Re: [Audyssey] Important Notice For All List Members
hmmm yeah I never thought about that. I'd also like other formats text html and a few other things, and yes there are sertainly things we can do. A lot of magazines thesedays have gone online and discontinued paper versions this is no different. there are competitions promos and other adds for things to, things we could use depending on what it was or themed stuff. Though I don't know if we want the modern type, sertainly advance it as you wish but I think it should keep the older styles it started with that was what attracted me to the mag. Sertainly we have come a long way from what it started with. It started with several zips on a now dead server in 1996 called aud 1- aud 20.zip.

For example, if I wanted to jump directly to the news section I could go to the Table of Contents, find the link for News, click on that and the anchor tags imbedded in the document will take me directly to the beginning of the news section.

Hi Thomas, At one time, there was an on-line version of Audyssey. From Stan Bobbitt: Hello to all the listers, I would like to remind everyone about my Audyssey web page where you can browse Audyssey magazine online, just as you would a web page in HTML version; You can click from article to article, view the latest issue , including back issues, and direct links to all the games mentioned in the magazine, as well as links to the sites of the providers of the games that were reviewed. The main reason I have worked so hard on this is that it saves you having to remember or record all the different addresses to where these games are! If you are interested in a game, simply click the link provided and get the game. Granted, this is a free site through GeoCities. It cost me nothing monetarily, but I have put a lot of long hours of work into providing Michael Feir's marvellous magazine in HTML version. My intent is not to detract from this smashing magazine in any way. Rather, I want to provide an alternative means for anyone and everyone to be able to have access to all the interesting and helpful information found in the magazine.

This is a synth dictionary issue not a user one. there was a time where eloquence on my nokia and in fact eloquence in all my commercial readers I used said vodafan instead of vodaphone it came back and went away till eloquence got a dictionary addin and got that all fixed. Its likely its happening on all synths I use orpheus, so maybe its on everything.

Re: [Audyssey] Extant help.
Hi Shaun, I think you missed the point of Charles's message. The i in iPhone is not suppose to be capitalized. The i is lowercase and the p is uppercase. It sounds correct on every synth I have tried including ESpeak,Eloquence, Scansoft Tom, and I assume most others will correctly say iPhone when it is spelled correctly. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Extant help.
I'll bet that if you type it right, capitalizing the P as I indicated, rather than how you incorrectly say, it'll sound right. Proof: Which of the below sounds right? Iphone. iphone. iPhone. If one of them sounds correct, notice how it was punctuated and now, knowing how it should be, type it that way. If for no other reason, the name of products should be correctly communicated. out of respect for good merchandise, and why shouldn't we make a little painless effort to appear educated to those who see what we type? --- Shepherds are the best beasts, but Labs are a close second. - Original Message - From: shaun everiss sm.ever...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Friday, March 08, 2013 3:16 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Extant help.

Re: [Audyssey] Audyssey Magazine improvement and advancement - Re: Important Notice For All List Members
Hi tom. wow, well it turns out you learn something new every day. funnily enough even though I've been writing the html for the entries on audiogames.net for the last few years, i've always done it directly myself by hand. i've seen the export to html function in word, but assumed it required a lot more special formatting to make work, indeed I rather thought that was what you used after! you put the formatting in by hand. I'm glad formatting the magazine won't take half as much trouble as I thought and people can just submit articals in standard text format. all the best, Dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

[Audyssey] new game talk
Starting on Monday, March 11, at 9-15 PM Eastern time, I will host a new event. We will talk about, and possibly demonstrate, games for the blind, whether by design or not. Sort of an audio form of this list if you want to think of it that way. Come join the fun. We might interview game developers or, in the case of the site this will be held on, game hosts. If you are not a member of www.Out-Of-Sight.net registration is free. It is a voice chat site, so come with a mike connected to your PC and chat about games. Give or get advice, or talk about or maybe show us your favorite game. This chat session is still under development, so let's hope for the best. --- Shepherds are the best beasts, but Labs are a close second. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
