Re: [Audyssey] games playable on consoles [was]Re: what will ittake for this community to learn?
Fighting games actually are very current. There are tons of them being made, especially in Asia. I'm not entirely sure what you mean though.. are you talking about current as in popular, what people are playing at the time? Because that changes depending on what the new fad is... seems like most of what you're refering to are shooters as those are the examples you've given. I wasn't trying to criticize, I know you are just curious... most people are. lol And racing games, depending on which game you're talking about, can be playable to a degree. I can't think of any off the top of my head. Fighting games are where i spend most of my time.. especially with the inclusion of online features. And fighting games are actually quite popular and out in the open now... there are a lot of fighting game tournaments and they are probably one of the few genres that allows for competition. And now that internet streaming of tournaments is so common, fighting games are getting more and more noticed. - Original Message - From: Mike Wassel blindndanger...@aim.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Monday, June 24, 2013 8:11 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] games playable on consoles [was]Re: what will ittake for this community to learn? Yes sports games are possible. But answer me this: How do you play racing games? How do you know where to turn or if you're going the wrong way? Rockband I understand, it's a great game and I like playing it. I guess my point is that we can't play more of the current things if that makes sense. Like COD or Resident Evil. That's why I like playing games like Final Fantasy X, Kingdom Hearts and Mass Effect (to a degree). I guess you could play third person shooters if you do what I do and use a lock-on system or use sound cues which is how I play them, ut FPS's are, I think, out completely. I'm not trying to make it sound like totals can't, I'm really just curious. Mike.

Fighting games are probaqbly boring only because you play against the computer... it's much more stimulating to play against humans and delve into the meet of the game which is usually more mental. Street Fighter IV, for example, has pretty simple mechanics. But those mechanics build into longer combos and strategy that can't be found in any other genre. But totals can play the majority of hack n slashes to at least a certain degree. Many people are able to play Ninja gaiden 3 without issue and are already close to beating the game, and games such as Rock Band and some sports games are also playable.

I am not about to read 40 messages, so I will just comment on this first one. I agree with Thomas on his points. While I don't play many audio games mainly because I don't care for the content when I have other games on my ps2/ps3 that I play more, I see it all the time with this community that people aren't happy, that they bitch and moan about keys/cracks of games all the time after a game is released, and even after it's been released. However, you can't put the blind community at 100% fault. The same thing goes on with sighted gamers. But since we are a relatively smaller community it hits a lot harder. If you don't have a thick skin and can just let comments roll off, you're going to quit. This is why I don't develop. One reason is because I don't have the time to do it, the other reason is if I did and started to get a whole lot of complaints, I know I'd explode on somebody. I've said it before. These debs go through a lot of work to create a game for everyone to enjoy. It takes a while to code and find bugs and get rid of them. I'm glad Jeremy has not quit his work because right now, he's the only one that is making modern games for us. If he wasn't here, I doubt that TRTR would've been made or any of the other games that are starting to come out. The same thing happened with Entombed. That was the closest that I've ever seen an audio game come to final fantasy. I'd like to see more like that, however I know that that starts to get harder because with more complex things you want happening, the more code you need to put in/the more time you need to put into the game. Another person who has been working with this for a while is Dentin. He's actually put in code for us to make Alter better and easier to

I do like kitchen style golf. But yeah I have actually played minigolf, boling, and normal golf with sighted pears. I have found it extremely boring and slow playing. But then its the same with the other stuff I enjoy gambling at a casino in the kitchensinc universe and also I enjoy driving the truck thinking on numbers for fuel and other things when I should knock off for the day etc. One thing I think we really need in the next generation of games are games which are not just crappy crap. I don't mean our games in general are crap, however I have noticed in the sighted world that a lot of stuff is just point shoot. I really harken back to the old days on if games etc where you had to think to save your meat and while we don't really have an issue I woory that we may get like that.

Re: [Audyssey] what will it take for this community to learn?
You know, I always felt the same way. And none of the characters in Chillingham were really memorable, let alone worth making fun of. At least in Grizzly Gulch you could laugh at the Marshall's gravelly voice or Cecil whistling on every S. In Chillingham the only character you could really have fun with was Bill the Hermit. In fact although I don't think it's been available for quite a few years Liam Erven once did a sort of parody sketch using clips of Old Bill and the main character Frederic. Of course that particular bit of audio would probably not be suitable for those under eighteen or so and certainly not for those who are easily offended. But if like me you have an at times offbeat sense of humor it was pretty hilarious.

Re: [Audyssey] looking for free sound files on internet
Hi Keith, a great one is freesounds.org. note that legally you must attribute some of the sounds in their database in your project, although I'm sure not everyone does that (note that I'm not saying to or not to here, just to be clear). I've found it a great place for putting in sounds until I can get royalty free ones.

[Audyssey] Question on Kitchensinc.
Hey everyone, I'm trying to play some games from kitchensinc, and I'm not able to change to a different sappi voice. As you know, it gives the option before every game asking you if you want a different voice or not. Is anyone else having this problem? I'm running windows 7. Just curious if anyone has experienced this. I've ran the sappi fixer from Jim's website, but it didn't fix it. Thanks.

Ryan, that usually happens if you are running both 64-bit and 32-bit SAPI voices on the machine. The fix or solution to said problem is to open up the 32-bit SAPI control panel manually, and set the voice you want as the system default. Cheers!

Fighting games are probaqbly boring only because you play against the computer... it's much more stimulating to play against humans and delve into the meet of the game which is usually more mental. Street Fighter IV, for example, has pretty simple mechanics. But those mechanics build into longer combos and strategy that can't be found in any other genre. But totals can play the majority of hack n slashes to at least a certain degree. Many people are able to play Ninja gaiden 3 without issue and are already close to beating the game, and games such as Rock Band and some sports games are also playable. But that's a whole other topic. lol - Original Message - From: Mike Wassel blindndanger...@aim.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Monday, June 24, 2013 3:55 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] what will it take for this community to learn? I am not about to read 40 messages, so I will just comment on this first one. I agree with Thomas on his points. While I don't play many audio games mainly because I don't care for the content when I have other games on my ps2/ps3 that I play more, I see it all the time with this community that people aren't happy, that they bitch and moan about keys/cracks of games all the time after a game is released, and even after it's been released. However, you can't put the blind community at 100% fault. The same thing goes on with sighted gamers. But since we are a relatively smaller community it hits a lot harder. If you don't have a thick skin and can just let comments roll off, you're going to quit. This is why I don't develop. One reason is because I don't have the time to do it, the other reason is if I did and started to get a whole lot of complaints, I know I'd explode on somebody. I've said it before. These debs go through a lot of work to create a game for everyone to enjoy. It takes a while to code and find bugs and get rid of them. I'm glad Jeremy has not quit his work because right now, he's the only one that is making modern games for us. If he wasn't here, I doubt that TRTR would've been made or any of the other games that are starting to come out. The same thing happened with Entombed. That was the closest that I've ever seen an audio game come to final fantasy. I'd like to see
