[Audyssey] code7 game play, and, stuck on second step
Firstly, the game play in this game actually reminds me of old school x25 discussion chat interface, or maybe ICQ's internet chat back in late 90's. Secondly, am not managing to figure out the second step in episode 0 - to override the locked door, you seem to be meant to search for the door's ID in the database, but, have not managed to figure out the search terminology, or else, maybe I am approaching this the wrong way - for example, the first time you get to this step, there's an additional bit of a recorded audio clip prompt that I am not sure I am hearing correctly, since it's a bit soft/unclear, but, either way, I am not managing to get the ID for the door you need to instruct the system to unlock. Has anyone else managed to get past this step, and, if so, can you perhaps tell me the steps you took to get there?

Re: [Audyssey] Interactive fiction interpritures for windows10
You can pull both of them off this NVDA add-on repository - one is called interactive fiction interpreter, and the other one is specific to winfrotz - that's probably the only one you really need: http://jeff.tdrealms.com/NVDA.htm And, when you fire up winfrotz, it should ask you to browse for a file to play/work with, or else, you can just assign it as the default to handle all the .z* file types, and browse to them in windows explorer, etc.? But, off-hand, think the ctrl+O keystroke should bring up that file opening dialogue. You can first try out the preference change mentioned in the other message, but, honestly, since NVDA is also my primary screen reader, it suits me fine to just work with it handling output, etc. - haven't tested this recently, but, think it also handles reviewing on screen text history as well using it's own object navigation commands, but anyway. sTay well Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA "Resistance is futile, but, acceptance is versatile..."

Re: [Audyssey] An Interactive Fiction Interpreter most accessible with NVDA
While there are NVDA add-ons meant to help with IF games, etc., I have also in past used a version of winFrotz that offers it's own TTS reading/output - the version have here at moment is 1.16. However, I have NVDA add-ons both for general IF, and windows frotz itself installed, and with a quick test now, NVDA was quite happy to both automatically read output, and could also just use navigator keystrokes to also read the text in the output window. Now, will also say that am not 100% sure which of these add-ons does all the work, or if it's a combination, but, you can get both the interactive fiction interpreter add-on, and the windows frotz add-on from the following add-on listing page: http://jeff.tdrealms.com/NVDA.htm Stay well Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA "Resistance is futile, but, acceptance is versatile..."

[Audyssey] 3d printed 20-sided die, with both braille and normal numbers printed on it
My one biker buddy, who works with 3d printing for some of his work stuff gave me a present yesterday - he says it took him a bit of time/trouble to get hold of the 3d printing pattern for it, but, it's a 20-sided die, like those used in dungeons and dragons, and other forms of role playing games, and it has both braille numbers, and normal print numbers on each of it's sides. The nice thing is it actually also has the number symbol included before each set of digits, which makes it easier to figure out which way is the right way up before reading the characters to see what's been rolled. And, in total, it's roundabout the size of a tennis ball, but, not too heavy, and seems like it's pretty long lasting material - will need to see how it reacts to rolling off a table-top a few times...

Jungle (also known as Dou Shou Qi, Jungle Chess or Animal Chess) is a Chinese strategy board game for two players. While the game is easy to learn, it is far from trivial to master. This incarnation of the game contains a basic computer opponent with whom you can practice, and it also features an online lobby where you can find opponents from all over the world. The game currently runs on Windows (Windows XP and above to be exact), with support for other platforms planned based on interest. The game is free, so you can head over to www.blastbay.com and grab it right away.

Re: [Audyssey] audioGames hub
Shaun, I find the relatively natural sounding voice for instructions to be part of the vibe of the game, so, it doesn't bother me at all - and, this is on the android platform, but anyway. Stay well Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA "Resistance is futile, acceptance is versatile" - Original Message - From: "Shaun Everiss" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: 21 May, 2016 9:52 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] audioGames hub Hi all I never asked on here exactly because I was not sure if it would take off especially since the audiogames forum seems to have got up to 25 posts on the subject but then it never went any further. Applevis has several comments. However its on here so fine. As of this time I am the official sonnar rep on here and anything else that this thing is discussed on. I am not the main dev or ceo but I have tested the games since they started. The official or unofficial comment thread to check out is at http://www.applevis.com/apps/ios/games/audio-game-hub#comment-form I had someone ask about using game centre for things. I will give the same answer as I did yesterday, this is a cross platform game. You guys or those that know using anything uniquely identifyed with a particular platform is hmmm just not happening. You are the first that has mentioned the voice being to slow, I myself have no issue with it. Some mentioned tutorial being a bit babyish but that was designed for all to play so its the way it is for a reason. If you want us to use voiceover for any reason, its not happening. Every platform has a turn off accessibility mode message on it. One thing I'd like is a way to skip the intro but thats not a big issue. I guess off the top of my brain I can ask sonnar if they can impliment a feature in the options to speed up the voice these are all recorded though, never the less if the unity engine can have the voices spead up or down for those preffs well maybe. Who else is having the issue of a to slow voice. We had one saying about the tutorial, one more about gamecentre etc, etc. Thing is we are a small startup company, and right now we are implimenting funding programs and the like as we are short of funds. Thing is right now no huge features but I will see what I can do. If it can be done quickly then it will be done. On that note, if you are from new zealand we are looking for more local testers. In fact we are looking for more testers of our stuff period. If you are interested, email me off list and I will give you the address to go to,. I will be posting this on applevis to so if you are on there you will get a double notification. Secondly since there has been some interest shown on here I will start posting updates on here, however they will appear on applevis first so. We have a pr event for potential funders or universities this monday, one of our funders is interested in further sponsorship of us. We intend to increase the number of games to 10. Currently I am troubleshooting a bug with one of the games on the pc. www.audiogamehub.com is where you can get the stuff for pc directly or other platforms. There is also a contact page if you contact them and mention my name and that you want to test that would improve my reputation some what. We are also looking for sources to post to, right now, I would really like a place where the android build is being discussed since I am lacking that information. If anyone wants to contact me well you know who to call. For those of you on the audiogames forum, exactly why are you guys not replying on the new releases room is that we are not posting much constantly. I'd idealy like some way to keep track of things, I know traffic is low however. I have stopped short of making a thread on general because I am unsure if anyone would post. Right now local testers are what we need, ie if you live in nz but anyone can test. Going to post at apple vis this info to. Anyway thats my speel, you may now bombard my inbox with all your quearies. The only rule I have is no platform spaciffic questions. Remember this is a multiplatform thing. Now if you just happen to have a development library that can do all features and its like on all platforms and its like doesn't cost that much them well.

Re: [Audyssey] Need Help Using The WinFrotz Add-on in NVDA
Ok, next question - is this the NVDA portable version, or installed? Ask since that can, at times affect the interface contents NVDA can access, etc. Ask since just downloaded the latest version of winfrotz interpreter, which from the help menu now says it is also 1.19, and the NVDA add-on seems to be working perfectly fine with this version as well. For example, sticking to object review mode, if you use the numpad keys 7 and 9, soes it read out prior lines of text to you, or not? And, that's when using desktop keyboard layout.

Re: [Audyssey] Need Help Using The WinFrotz Add-on in NVDA

Re: [Audyssey] deck building CCG versus RPG
FWIW, there's already a sighted guy, who I came across via a facebook group working on a set of braille tags/stickers, etc. for dominion cards, but anyway. This same guy is also somewhat involved in working on a form of braille implementing standard RPG dice.

On 2016-04-20 11:44 AM, Jeremy Brown wrote: Dark's comments on Magic and CCG's brought up this as a possible departure point as well: Again, while it's not an RPG, Dominion is a deck building concept that could be adapted fairly easily to an IOS environment and would lend itself to a multi-player or versus the computer style game. You'd have to develop your own knock off using similar concepts, or else, get licensing privileges from the parent company. I suspect this latter would be difficult as they have taken action against several game developers that released versions of their game. In Dominion, you have three types of cards: money, victory points, and action cards. You begin play with 7 coin cards and three victory points. you draw 5 cards at a time, and have three phases, an action phase, a buy phase, and a clean up phase. During the action phase, you may play any action cards you have, during the buy phase you may buy cards from the supply, and in the clean up phase you clear your play area and discard all played cards and all cards in your hand preparatory to drawing your next hand. In Dominion, there's always ten stacks of cards in the supply that are random actions or treasures, and a series of coin or treasure cards and victory points that are always present. Victory conditions vary, but generally if you exhaust three piles of cards in the supply, or buy all of the primary victory point cards, the game ends. The person with the most victory points in their hand at the end of the game wins the game. It's a very fast, very fun, and very neat game as in the original set of Dominion there's I believe 25 or 30 action cards to choose from. Each game is completely different because of the random factor of getting different combinations of actions, and what those actions do. Some give you more actions in your action phase, some give you more coins, some allow you to draw more cards, some allow you to force other players to discard, etc. It's a style of game that hasn't been tackled by any accessible game developer that I am aware of.

But all I can find on that website is the actual game file, Zenon.z5 By the way I know this because got an add-on which reads the Frotz output. I have tried to find any readme by doing a Google search, but no joy! Please if anyone can help, any responses would be appreciated! If anyone would like to E-mail me personally, here's my E-mail address: garypric...@icloud.com Thanks very much! --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Getting into programming
You can, since it has the option to set the compiler/interpreter, based on the language you tell it you are working in, which then also allows you to make use of different collections of code snippets, but, I don't do this - I run python code from console myself, so that I can then review any output - use that to handle forms of pseudo-debugging at times as well. There are also some other options in it relating to how it handles running the interpreter, etc. - and, remember, python itself doesn't really have a compiler built into it, so you generally use third party/external modules to generate executables, which are essentially interpreter-wrappers, and, I have used different ones for different pieces of code, due to some of them having issues with including some other modules in the wrapper content - especially if want to go for single-file .exe instead of just collecting all the necessary files into one location that would then need to be distributed along with the then smaller executable file. Also, to compile for platforms other than windows, I think you need to run that part of the process on the relevant platform itself - maybe inside a virtual version, but, still.

If this guy is based out of the United States, you might want to report him. I believe that cyber-stalking is a crime (I am not sure if it is state or federal, though). I am not conversant with laws in either countries, but I assume that they have similar statutes. In any instance, insure that you document everything. Best of luck On 3/8/16, loriduncan wrote: Hi everyone, it is my painful duty to have to inform you all that for the last month, I have been stalked both on Skype and on Survive the wild by one of the admins of said game, Walter Van Wyck. This all started when I was trying to get a friend away from him, and led to him stalking us both and being very abusive towards us, but then denying it to the other, for example he'd tell my friend she was worth nothing, then tell me he hadn't said any such thing, even though I have the evidence my friend sent me to prove he was lying. He's also been very abusive when my friend and I did work with him on his podcasts at blindaccess.org, not in the actual podcasts themselves, but in terms of if my friend and I dared to suggest anything to improve the podcasts, we were basically told to do things his way. He also slated 2 of the people who gave me the inspiration to podcast, saying he was far better, which I thought was a totally wrong, and b childish. Now the reason I'm telling the community all this, is because last night my friend down in England opened an account in stw and began playing, but then out of the blue, she had Walter grilling her, thinking she was me with another account. She skyped me and asked if I knew walter and told me he'd been very abusive towards her, so now my main concerne is that other girls might receive the same treatement as myself and my friends have done at Walter's hands. Finally, I'd like to tell you that I did report this to Sam, the developer of Survive the Wild, but other than saying he'd talk to Walter, Sam has done nothing, so Walter is still free to abuse his admin position by threatening me and my friends with checking up on us. Just be careful when playing Survive the Wild everyone, it's a great game, and it's just such a pitty people like him are left to get away with verble bullying and emotional blackmail. I'm not saying don't play, I only want people to feel safe playing and to know what I've had to go through and to avoid this guy at all costs. I shall be posting this to audiogames.net with the permission of the admins there. I thank you all for reading, and can only hope action will be taken at some stage to prove that I'm speaking nothing but the truth.

Re: [Audyssey] Getting into programming
Justin, I am a programmer, and keep meaning to get around to sorting out a character sheet managent app - the flavour me and my friends play is called/based on runeQuest, so would want to sort out a more generic form of wrapper that could be used for multiple forms of RPG - as in, maybe use more generic forms of category, range, application/implementation categories, etc. etc. - hope am making some snese. Either way, besides web development, my other focus area is python programming, but, in terms of interface, besides command line, I am much more used to working with web development, and, for example, there's something called quickPHP that lets you use portable, stand-alone web server packages, which would mean could easily enough put together a web-page based bit of software, including databases, interface interaction, etc., but, without needing to spend too much time focusing on actual GUI renditions, or just work with command line consoles, etc. But, this is all just my take/opinion on this, based on a bit of background/experience, etc. Stay well Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA "Roger Wilco wants to welcome you...to the space janitor's closet..."

The more realistic goal of creating a Dungeons and Dragons (5th Edition) character sheet creator for us blind folks.

Re: [Audyssey] A Visit from Lycanthrope Claus .
LOL! Brilliant! Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA "Roger Wilco wants to welcome you...to the space janitor's closet..." - Original Message - From: "Phil Vlasak" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: 25 December, 2015 3:28 PM Subject: [Audyssey] A Visit from Lycanthrope Claus . A Visit from Lycanthrope Claus .by Phil Vlasak. Inspired by Clement Clark Moore. The Christmas full moon will be the 1st since 1977... 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house, Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. The garlic was hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that werewolf Claus would not be there. The children were nestled shivery in their beds, While visions of glowing red eyes danced in their heads. And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap, Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap. When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter. Away to the window I flew like a flash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash. The full moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow, Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below. When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, But an enormous sleigh, and eight giant reindeer. With a large old driver, with whiskers and paws, I knew in a moment it must be Lycanthrope Claus. More rapid than bats his coursers they came, And he barked, and howed, and called them by name. "Now, Thrasher! now, Smasher! now, Rupture and Vixen, On, Vomit! on, Stupid! on, Dopey and Blitzen! To the top of the porch, up the side of the wall, Now jump away, jump away, jump away all!" As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly, When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky, So up to the house-top the coursers they flew, With the sleigh full of bones, and a werewolf Claus too. And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof, The prancing and pawing of each large hoof. As I drew in my head, and was turning around, Down the chimney Lycanthrope Claus came with a bound. He was covered all in fur, from his head to his foot, And his claws were all coated with blood and soot. A bundle of bones he had flung on his back, And he looked like a murderer just opening his sack. His tail, how harry! his fangs, how scary! His whiskers were like needles, eyes red as a cherry! His droll long snout had drawn out as it grew, And the fur of his chin was as brown as the stew. The stump of an arm he held tight in his teeth, And its blood it encircled his head like a wreath. He had a broad face and a large round belly, That shook when he growled, like a bowlful of jelly. He was chubby and plump, a hair-raising werewolf, And I screamed when I saw him, in spite of myself. A glance of his eye and a twitch of his tail, Soon gave me to know I had everything to faille. He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work, But at the sound of my gun he turned with a jerk. While pulling my finger back on the trigger, The silver bullet hit as he leaped at my figure. He crashed out the window while his team gave a whistle, And away they flew at the sound of my pistol. But I heard him exclaim, as he fell out of sight, "Cause those damn reindeer left me, I'll give them a good bite!" --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Lovecraft
Cara, interactive fiction? Know not anything fancy/new, but, can only imagine there are quite a few IF games/stories based on Lovecraft books/themes? Stay well Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA "Roger Wilco wants to welcome you...to the space janitor's closet..." - Original Message - From: "Cara Quinn" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Saturday, December 05, 2015 8:36 AM Subject: [Audyssey] Lovecraft Hi All, There is a plethora of ChoiceOf and Hosted Games. I am a fan of H.P. Lovecraft. So I am wondering if there are any of these games which have a Lovecraftian theme? I have read several game descriptions but it’s not always easy to tell from them. So I am wondering if anyone who is familiar with Lovecraft might know. Any direction you can point me in would be terrific! In case it is not clear, I am looking for iOS games in an interactive fiction style but any game fitting the description above would be great. Thanks a bunch and hope y’all have a lovely weekend!

Re: [Audyssey] Portable interactive fiction game playing device/unit
Josh, I configured/set up my wifi dongle last night, and it literally took me like 5 minutes overall - turned unit off, plugged in a realtek wifi dongle, turned it on, double checked that it had initiated the device, by scanning through boot up log, edit the one text file using the nano editor, switched unit off, and turned it on again, and good to go. Instructions were pulled off this page: http://raspberrypihq.com/how-to-add-wifi-to-the-raspberry-pi/ Think it really just depends on compatibility, etc. Stay well Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA "Roger Wilco wants to welcome you...to the space janitor's closet..." - Original Message - From: "Josh K" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Monday, November 16, 2015 2:30 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Portable interactive fiction game playing device/unit how easy is it to set up wi-fi?

It's an excellent little unit. It has 4 cpus in it, and runs at 1GHZ, with 1GB of ram. It uses standard micro sd cards, up to 32GB (if I remember correctly) though some of the 32 gb cards don't behave properly, so there is that to look out for, but otherwise, it is truly an excellent system. I'm actually using it as my main pc at the moment, since my imac went belly up a few months ago, and the only other machine I have is an old xp machine that has some serious dll issues, so it doesn't like to run for more than an hour or so at a time, depending on when/how windows decides to do things. I've never managed to fix it, because my xp pro disk is unreadable, and I've not found another xp pro hd I could copy the dlls from to repair my system. I have other linux systems in the house, but mine was disassembled to give parts to my son who built his own computer for gaming purposes, and I've not managed to get the additional parts I needed to rebuild my linux machine, so the raspberry pi is filling in quite nicely as my main pc at the moment. It works well enough, and I can run it for about an hour using one of those pocket juice things, though I've not (yet) experimented with other battery power devices, although there's one on the raspberry store that claims 8 hours of usage. I do plan to purchase one of those, so I have a nice portable unit. I'd actually been considering trying to turn mine into a gaming unit as well, (thus the writing of the memory game Jake referred to in his post) The sound isn't anything to write home about, so for the moment, complex audio games aren't possible, but otherwise, it's quite the neat little unit, and I'm looking forward to see what else I can accomplish with it. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Problems when Playing Games
Not really - as I understand it is that access to contents of UAC popup is literally being denied, due to nature of user-access-control - same way, a while ago, some of the anti-virus software thought some screen readers were acting like trojan horse malware, due to them scanning textual content of other windows/dialogues. And, don't really think logon screen activation has much to do with it - this was after had been working in main window/desktop area, and, since run portable version of NVDA, it's not necessarily too likely to cooperate with logon screen startup...?

History: Gone is all the light of the world and it has become dark. Scientists do not know the cause but rather know what happened. Your mission is to find out what had happened. You will have to survive in a world completely dark where animals are aggressive and closer to targets , using only your ears . Game Mode: You have to have headphones and make sure you are well placed ( left atrial to left ear and the right on the right ear ) . Orienta mobile in the direction you want to "see." You have to hold the phone like when you take a picture. You walk by holding two fingers on the screen. To attack your enemies you tap on the screen. The game is in Beta version, if you find an error please explain it in the comments.
