Hi, Well, Spanker is fun. It is based off a Bop It style of play where you use the arrow keys to swing left, right, and center.

Hi, I except that as a challenge. I'll have to get into the adult word list and see how high I score. How many words do I have to do. Is that 10 out of 10?

Hi blind guy,, Quote Out of all 25, I like monopoly, baseball, football, pong, and bopit is pretty cool too. End quote Yeah, I really like Monopoly 7and NFL 3 myself. Out of the Kitchensinc games those are probably the two I play the most. Of late I have gotten in to playing hangman allot. I am not a great speller, but I have always had a bit of a knack of solving those kind of word puzzles. Yesterday I got 7 out of 10 words correct in hangman. Pretty good odds. That is a 70% accuracy.

Hi Blind Guy No I was not serious. It is actually just a bunch of the smallest sound files that I had so that they could play very quickly like that. And then have multiple instances of them playing at the same time. I don't know though sometimes random noise like that clears my brain.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
Hi Damien, If you mean the Trucker code it is pretty cryptic, but I had looked at it way back when I first added sounds to it. To turn it into VB6 code pretty much all I did was to look for and change the print statements to the call to my speech sub routines. For the most part GWBasic code will run in BB6. Well maybe I should say that Quick Basic code will run in VB6 as I had converted the Trucker game from GWBasic to Quick Basic when I added the sounds. But I don't remember having to do much to it to make that conversion either. BFN Jim C programmers don't have the BASIC instincts.

Hi, There aren't any roads in Ohio that have no speed limits, but I have heard there are a few places in the USA where there are no posted speed limits. I'd have to look it up, but I think it was Montana which had some areas where you could put the pettle to the metal and not have to worry about a speed limit. Also as I did mention in an earlier post though the US Interstate project came from the idea of the Autobahn, but unlike the Autobahn they were given speed limits.

Hi Tyler, Thank you very much for saying that you like my game menu system, the trucker game etc. I appreciate it very much. To tell you the truth I did not write the original Trucker game or the original Golf game. All of my other games I did write totally from scratch, but the Trucker and Golf games I found the source code and added sounds to them etc. When the Trucker game was written all highway speed limits in the U. S. were 55 mph. Allot of them have now been raised back up to 65 or even 70. But since I did not write the original Trucker game I am not sure I want to go into it and make changes like that to it. It is set that 55 will give you the best gas mileage etc. I just have a feeling that I would mess it all up if I tried to find and make changes to some of that code.

Hi Tyler, Freeways tend to be state roads like State Rout 30, State Route 83, etc. Interstates is the United States version of the Autobond. They are four line highways that run across the entire United States from end to end. In fact, General Eisenhower personally comitioned the Interstate project after seeing the Autobond when he led US forces into Natzi Germany in 1944. When he became president in the 1950's he imagined the idea of taking the Autobond, and making several of them all over the United States. A few years later it happened. Now, that is your history lesson for today.

Hi, That's easy to figure out. Every time Jim added a new game he'd have to record it's name and update the winkit file. This way the game will automatically detect the new game, and since Sapi is a real synth it is flexable enough to say something without having to be recorded in advance. blind guy wrote: speaking of game menu, how come you didnt do it with the older self voicing stuff that had recorded eloquence speech? --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
hi with that izarc application, what file foramts can u convert/create? for example, rar, zip, iso, etc?

Hi Jim, Yeah, the installation is very quick and simple. Especially, when you are in the process of a full reinstall of everything.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
Still, compressing an executable will not always result in anything good. I.E. try to pack an executable with WinRAR. You'd just save a few kB or so. So if you really want to save space, use a packer for portable executables like PECompact (DanZ Games did so), UPX or Shrinker. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Thursday, September 06, 2007 4:49 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6 Hi Jim, Well, about saving space using a self extractor program verses a full blown installation it really depends on the installation wizard you use.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
Hi Jim, Narrator? I'm surprised anyone can get anything constructive done with that thing. Yesterday I totally reformated my laptop, reinstalled Vista from scratch, and braught Narrator up to solve my vidio driver issues before installing Window Eyes and Jaws. It was not very fun, because Narrator didn't read what was on the screen half the time. As it happens I have installed Winkit, and made an icon on my desktop for it with control+alt+k as the hot key. Makes it rather handy to unload my screen reader, do alt+control+k, and then have access to all of your games. So I am warming to your program launcher idea.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
Hi Thomas, As I told you on Monday Thomas I would also like to say that my winkit.zip file contains the files Setup.exe, Setup.lst and Gamemenu.cab. It is an actual Microsoft Visual Basic 6 install program and thus puts the files where they belong. I E the library files in c:\windows\system32. I guess that it is actually called the Microsoft Visual Studio 6 package Deployment Wizard. But yes I guess that I did miss the create an Icon part of it. But I have helped a heck of allot of people make a desk top icon to the gamemenu.exe file and a heck of allot of others knew to do that on their own which means that from one icon you have access to all of my games through the game menu program. As far as my games not being 100 percent independent games, no they are not 100 percent. You must start with the WinKit.zip and life and then install all or any of the other games that you want. Like it says on my web site winkit.zip 2.4m bytes May 2003 contains a game menu system and the board game of life Please install the winkit.zip file before installing any of the below games. Yeah Thomas, you know what they say about assuming. And I think that is very true if you assume that I do my games in anything near a standard way. Heck they are not even a product, they are my sharable accessible game creations. You know like my life love hobby. Well they have only been in accessible form for 17 years or so, but you know what I mean. BFN Jim If it doesn't say Kitchen's Inc on it. Someone else made it. [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.kitchensinc.net (440) 286-6920 Chardon Ohio USA - Original Message - Hi Jim, Yes, I was getting that error. I didn't really know what winkit did until you explained it here on list. All I knew was that it had to be installed, but I wasn't necessarily aware all the files had to be in the exact same folder, or that Winkit linked all of the games together. You see, for me I thought all of your games were individual programs totally independant from each other. I assumed you could extract them altogether or extract them wherever you wanted, click the *.exe file, and begin playing. It never occurred to me you had written a custom launcher program, and you had never intended for the games to be totally 100% independant programs. As a developer myself I sort of assumed you were like most developers creating each game as an individual stand alone product, and the only reason you hadn't gotten around to an installer is that you either didn't have one or know how to use one. So smart or dumb as I was I assumed allot of things based on what a standard programmer would do, and never really looked into how the games are suppose to be setup. In any case I have copied all of the files into one folder, and they all work fine now.

HI thom Jim might have answered you already but I'm going to answer you from how I feel., Uhm, the answer is actually very simple. Jim made the winkit program especially for those blind people who doesn't have any speech software. What if a blind person is not computer literate at all and choose not to buy a computer but can play kitchensinc games on a friend's computer, if jim would go for the standard install, then the blind person would have to rely on sighted assistance to guide him to the game he wants, now he can choose the game he wants, he doesn't tneed either sighted assistance or a screen reader. Or say for instance a friend gives a blind person a computer for free such as a birthday present, to play games on. The blind person will then use jim's winkit very handy as its self voicing, it's a self voicing list of games he can choose from. Basically he just need sappi installed.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
Hi Thomas, You know that my games are meant to be all installed in one (Kitchensinc) folder. The winkit.zip file installs a GameMenu program that lists and launches all of my games. When each game exits it wants to go back to the GameMenu program. I imagine that you are getting an error when exiting my games if they are all in separate folders because they can not find the GameMenu program. - Original Message - Hi Jim, No problem. I'm aware of what needs to be installed to the System32 directory so I'll simply install the libs I need there, and run the games according to the way I like installing them.

Generally speaking the DirectX 8 VB libs as well as the Visual Basic 6 runtime libs should be located in the end users c:\Windows\System32 directory which is per a standard install. So I got in to the habit of installing all of my games in a separate folder like c:\Program Files\Kitchensinc\Golf c:\Program Files\Kitchensinc\Monopoly c:\Program Files\Kitchensinc\Life and so on.

I have a need on my computer to organise everything, and go nuts when files are not organised and put in some kind of order, and I always impose order on my files. Thus the separation between Jim's games and files. Anyway, to make a long story short since I did not install Winkit I did not have all the necesary files for those games to run properly under Vista, and and so copied the necessary files to my c:\Windows\System32 directory which is really how this should be done which worked. Jim is correct in that if you install Winkit first, and install everything to one folder the games will work under Vista as Winkit contains those missing files, but at the time I wrote my compatibility chart I did not know this since I was in the habbit of not installing it. Winkit under XP was a unnecessary package as far as I could see. Though, now that I am made aware of my error I will of course update my compatibility chart to reflect both styles of installation.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
Hi Jim, I can confirm that myself. The Winkit package does indeed solve compatibility issues as far as I cansee. However, generally speaking those VB libs should really go in c:\Windows\System32 where all VB 6 games can access them rather than being in the local directory where just your games can use them.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
Hi Jim, No problem. I'm aware of what needs to be installed to the System32 directory so I'll simply install the libs I need there, and run the games according to the way I like installing them. However, officially for the Vista compatibility chart I'll update it to reflect the installation of Winkit.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
Hi Willem, Honestly, I am a bit of a neet freek when it comes to my computer and files. For example, take the Windows start menu. If you install everything to the default location your start menu will eventually become an unsorted mess with 40 or 50 pull down menus. Ok, in my start menu I have all of my pull down menus organised to catagory like under the start menu home and office catagory I have quicken, Microsoft Office, Adobe Acrobat Reader, etc... Then, under the start menu Programming and Development catagory I have Visual Studio, Python, DirectX SDK, .Net SDK, etc... Anyway, when installing I like to have all of my programs installed in the Program Files directory under company and then organised by product. Do I need to do these things. No, but it certainly makes files and menus easier to fine, and everything is sorted so someone can find what they want very easily.

I just wish that I could get to grips with .net, and I wish that Vista wasn't such a huge pain in the backside. If it wasn't for the fact that IE7 is buggy with FTP sites, .net isn't all that accessible, too many restrictions with Vista, including no WaveOutMix, the menus were different, and that some of the games I play everyday can't be played on Vista, I'd probably upgrade now, since I've heard it's got better SAPI voices, better cd writing capabilities, better DVD playing accessibility features, etc, etc. I mean, the fact that you have to be administrator to install things, and not just an administrative user.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
I myself wonder how the ESP Softworks/Draconis's games work. I'm not even sure if they'd run on vista. By the way, I was gonna say this in another topic, but I'll be trying out Linux soon! That is, after I'm finnished downloading it. Its only 44 percent complete. I'm backing up the file for sure! If Ubuntu has a way to work with Direct-X, I'll let ya know. There is that one Linux port called Lindows, now called LinSpired, that looks and feels like Windows, I'm thinking games could be run on that one. http://www.lindows.com is the old address, which points to the LinSpired one. I don't know what the newer one is. Oh and one last thing. Just like Windows, Lindows isn't free ither. Hmm. 698 MB download for an operating system, and I'm only at 315 mb. 45 percent as I write. I wonder if the Kiseeno game, for example, could be imported to Ubuntu one day. Trenton Matthews T Man TV! Why watch it, if you can listen to it!

Hi Michael, All the libraries you need go in c:\Windows\System32 which has been the default system directory for years now. Microsoft hasn't changed that in the 32 byt version of Vista. In the newer 64 byt version there is a c:\Windows\System64 directory, but most users probably don't have this version of Vista. As for where to get them I plan to make a nice little package for VB 6 programs so it should be easy enough to get from my web site, and install.

Hi Jim, I'm wondering if you could include those libs with each game you package.

For example, c:\Program Files\Kitchens Inc\Golf c:\Program Files\Kitchens Inc\Monopoly c:\Program Files\Kitchens Inc\NFL and so on and so on. That could be part of my problem as everything you required for your games are in WinKit and I have to copy those files to a system directory or put them in every game folder.

Hi Thomas, Please correct me if I am wrong, but you did not have a problem with the winkit.zip install but rather the self extracting zip files right? And as you yourself have mentioned the end user needs not nor actually ever knows what language a game or program is written in? Truthfully even if I switched to VB.net I would still use the self extracting zip file method to put all of my games in the single Kitchensinc folder to run off of my game menu program as I do now and thus Vista users would encounter the same problem. With your permission Thomas I would like to put up on my web site the text of your message about how to use full administrative rights to get the self extracting zip files to run in Vista for those who may be having problems with it.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
Hi Jim, In actuality I had two problems with your games under Vista, but there is a pretty easy solution for both of them. First, as you pointed out I had issues with the self extractor installation of the game. To install your games you need to run them using full admin rights. I have no problems with you posting my text file where I explain how to do this. That was the main reason I wrote it in the first place. (Smile) Second, Vista does not come with DirectX support for Visual Basic 6 since Microsoft has already stopped supporting the technology. As a result the DirectX com libraries for Visual Basic need to be copied from a Windows XP system to the new Vista computer. If you run Vista as a XP to Vista upgrade then you will have the files, but users buying a new computer will have to copy them from the old XP computer to the Vista computer. Hope this helps. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
Hi Jim, One more note. You are right most of the time a end user doesn't need to know the language the game is written in, but they will need to know the dependancies required to run it. In this case Visual Basic 6 requires allot of libraries which are going to be canned very shortly. The DirectX 8 com libraries for Visual Basic 6 no longer ship with Vista and manually have to be copied from XP to Vista. It is my understanding that Microsoft's future releases of Vista, like Vista SP1, disks will no longer come prepackaged with the VB 6 runtime environment libraries. Which is really the hole problem with using VB 6. It is clear Microsoft is stearing VB programmers away from VB, and are pointing them to .Net which is the new development platform for Windows Vista, Windos CE, Windows Mobile, etc... The technology has just run it's course, and Microsoft is attempting to draw developers away from their older technologies, and to begin using the new MS standards. Is it possible to get Visual Basic 6running on Vista SP1 and later? Probably, but the end user will have to manually find and install the libraries that are missing, and there is no garentee that Microsoft won't change something down the road that will cause an incompatibility or break in one of your VB 6 games. Jim Kitchen wrote: Hi Thomas, Please correct me if I am wrong, but you did not have a problem with the winkit.zip install but rather the self extracting zip files right? And as you yourself have mentioned the end user needs not nor actually ever knows what language a game or program is written in? Truthfully even if I switched to VB.net I would still use the self extracting zip file method to put all of my games in the single Kitchensinc folder to run off of my game menu program as I do now and thus Vista users would encounter the same problem. With your permission Thomas I would like to put up on my web site the text of your message about how to use full administrative rights to get the self extracting zip files to run in Vista for those who may be having problems with it. Thank you. BFN Jim I'm really easy to get along with once you people learn to see it my way.

may be good if you could put the dx7 and dx8vb.dlls and other xp stuff that one needs for vista for those that don't want to fiddle in a system folder, even a tech like myself appreciates a perfect package as supposed to fiddling.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
Hi Jim, Well, the dll files look good, but unfortunately I don't know which build version those are. Tell you what I'm planning on a complete product recovery of my laptop this week. Once I do that I will find you the most current version of all the VB 6 libs, and you can post them on your sight so we can insure maximum compatibility with 2000, XP, and Vista for the time being.

Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
Hi Jim, Well, that at least is something i can help you with. Go to http://www.usagames.us/requirements and download the .Net Framework 2.0 package and latest DirectX 9.0C upgrade. First, install .Net 2.0 and then DirectX, and you should be set to go. Though, as I have discussed on list I am highly thinking about going .Net 3 since that is now what XP and Vista are using primarily. However, I am still thinking on that score.

[Audyssey] Kitchensinc games was One Year Ago
Hi Jason, I have found a work around to make Jim's games to work on Vista with no compatibility issues. I have sent Jim a copy of what to do, and probably at some point he will put it up on his site or somewhere. I have for the most part located work arounds to get 99% of accessible games to play under Vista. The exception to that rule is Troopenum and I think it was Pipe I can't even start without crashing. Just in case if anyone asks if the downloads were damaged i tested them on my laptop which still has XP and the ran fine so there is certainly up with Vista and Troopenum II. ___ Gamers mailing list ..
