Hi Dark,
I'm sorry, it must have been someone else. I have never owned or even used any
of those specialty braille machines.
I got my first talking computer in December of 1989. It ran Jaws for dos
version 1 with an Accent S A synthesizer. In January of 1990 I was at the
Cleveland Sight
its called toxit and ishen if you read the thread on there he is working on it.

english as well.

Hmm it will depend on the person, half my friends are happy with
text, and even audio games others are not.
Ofcause some of my friends grew up on older systems like the acorn,
if you grow up with it then you may take it more easily, for my unger
generation of friends, if its not got graphics,
Wow I feel really yung.
The first games I ever played that were audio ish
were of old mojo inst floppies back in 1994.
The first real games were interactive fiction,
and the first real audiogames I ever played were
the old pcs titles I think 1997 or so.
up to 2000, and the gma games lonewolf
well if it ever goes to crowd sourcing, due to some things having to
be canceled I may have about 50 or 60 bucks I could put towards a
project like this.

I believe the game is called toxic survival, you can find a topic

The shooting range is one of my all-time favorite audio games. I only
wish I had bought the full version. But at the time I found it, I was
10 years old, and spending $30 for a game seemed unattainable. I don't
know whether my parents would have bought it for me or not, but today

Hi Tom.
I didn't realize there was a Uk version of that game show, but then again I
haven't owned a tv license myself for years and though I do use my parents'
tv when I'm there there are only a few things I'm interested in watching
such as Futurama and Doctor who, (sinse I'm no longer
Hi Jim.
Fare enough. I just remember hearing an interview several years ago in about
2007 or so with someone from the community, and them saying that there was a
game on one of the braille note taker thingies that was notable for it's use
of sound.
I was only taking a guess that person was
Desiree,
After I finish updating my Harry Potter inspired Sarah game, I plan to do a
Windows update on the DOS Shooting Range game.
I plan on combining it with my DOS Cops game. You can practice shooting at a
range or junk yard or capture criminals in a city.

what virtual machine do you play it in? windows xp? that seems to be the
only one that supports dos games playing them with NVDA.

Hi
champion! you know my brother is 8 and he want to play some games and
I want to play interactive fictions with him.
so I ask about the sited people.
I have filfre in my desktop so if I want to play I have to download the game.
Yes or not.
Thanks
Ishan
everyone cannot do everything but can do
Hi Josh,
I'd imagine so. XP was the last Windows OS to truly support a lot of
older 8-bit and 16-bit Dos apps and games while being new enough to
support a screen reader like NVDA. Logically that would be my choice
for a virtual machine for most of those older PCS Games.
Cheers!

Hi Shaun,
Well, as you said it all depends on the person. You make a lot of
generalizations about the younger players verses the older players
which may be true in their specific cases, but I wouldn't go as far to
say all young people are like that.
I think a lot of it comes down to exposure. If
Hello Curry-Muncher,
Yes. If you want to play an interactive fiction game you have to
download some from the interactive fiction archive or somewhere else.
Filfre, Winfrotz, and other interpreters don't come with any of the
games themselves. Just are the programs to run/play them.
Cheers!

Hi Ishen.
Well you need Filfre to play the if game files, you then need the files for
whatever game you want to play to run in that interpreter, just like if you
wanted to play music files you'd need both the program to play them and the
files of whatever music you wished to play.
Hi Tom.
Never mind your son, I! like board and card games, but also love audio
games, text games and what video games I'm able to play, and I pretty much
always have.
I enjoyed card and board games because I was able to play with other people,
indeed when I was quite young, around 7-12 my

am I missing something?
Perhaps you could explain that remark a little Tom.
BEware the grue!

Hi Thomas,
So I guess he calls you champion for
Wheaties, the breakfast of champions.
And you call him Curry-Muncher,
because that is what they eat in India?
I might just rename Pacman to

hunt him down in a maze.

LOL. Something like that. I was getting annoyed by Ishan's use of
Champion so I decided to give him a nickname, but obviously being the

considered a racial slur. So I decided to use something slightly
amusing like teasing

Its simple. Ishan continues to call me Champion besides being asked on

Hi Dark,
Me too. When growing up in the80's I' play any game regardless if it
was a board game or a video game. I don't see why kids would be that
much different today. My son certainly isn't because we share an
interest in both.
However, I think one reason might be some parents today are a lot

That was sort of the idea. Something comical, not too serious, and
that wouldn't necessarily be offensive.

Hi Hayden,
Yes, a lot of those challenges would be pretty specialized. One would
have to develop a pretty sophisticated physics engine to perform most
of those challenges, because they require some hand and eye
coordination. I think if written correctly one wouldn't necessarily

This is probably a cultural thing, but in England I've often heard things
like Curry face or similar remarks about indian food, used in quite a
racist way against people from India on packistan. For example there was a

Hi Tom.
I can see that replicating sophisticated physics for say bouncing a coin off
a table into a jug, let alone replicating the necessary motions to perform
that action (even with analogue control), would be hell to program, however
I don't think that would really be a problem.

Thanks for that info.
I'm glad to hear that project is still a go. I think I remember you

I will definitely play and purchase that game whenever it comes out.
