Re: [Audyssey] using the sword in mota beta14

2010-11-10 Thread Valiant8086
Hi.
I have to assume the people have deleted the files they linked you to, or
gave you invalid links. Files placed in dropbox do not expire as they do
with the free sendspace accounts. Also there isn't a download cap. I've
placed free games in my public dropbox folder for people who couldn't find
them, and as far as I know it's worked great. I've used both sendspace and
dropbox, and to hear me tell it, I definitely favor dropbox or dorpbox as I
call it. I think sendspace probably allows for faster upload speeds.

Back on topic a little, did you notice that in mota beta 16, when you select
a whip it repeats itself very quickly until you release the number you
pressed to select your weapon? And also that weapons seem to wait for the
spacebar to be released rather than pressed down?

Oh and did you make the easily difficulty more difficult? *grin*. I used to
make it to level 2 when I used beta 15, but in this one I die before I even
get anywhere close to the second boss. Maybe I'm having a bad time of it.
*lol*.

Hi Hayden,

Well, as a big Sendspace user with a Max account I can give you lots of
reasons why Dropbox is, well, not that good. For one thing with a Sendspace
Max account you can download up to 8 GB per day, can store 100 GB of files
on your account, use  of the Sendspace Wizard, etc.
Dropbox doesn't offerly nearly that much. Especially, for a free account. I
can't tell you how many times someone has posted a podcast or something to
Dropbox, and when I go to download it Dropbox says the download limit has
expired or the file is no longer available. The service is quite honestly
terrible.

Hi Nicol,
I'm not sure what exactly what is wrong, but it could be one of two
things. First, the input system which has already been addressed/fixed
in beta 15 as far as I can tell. Second, you are running low on
strength and when Angela's strength is low she can't use the sword. In
either case hitting the spacebar like crazy won't help you and
probably just fill the event queue with a bunch of key presses that
need to be processed slowing the game and input system down.

[Audyssey] using the sword in mota beta14

2010-10-11 Thread NIcol
HI Tom and list
I experience strange behavior when using the sword.\
I find that the sword does not always work.
In level2 of mota beta14, I want to kill the first harpie, but I only hear
the sound of the sword now and then.
I hit spacebar like crazy but I only hear  the  sword's  sound  vary
rarely. Is this maybe a bug?
Or is something wrong with my system?
Many thanks for any help.

Hi Nicol,
I'm not sure what exactly what is wrong, but it could be one of two
things. First, the input system which has already been addressed/fixed
in beta 15 as far as I can tell. Second, you are running low on
strength and when Angela's strength is low she can't use the sword. In
either case hitting the spacebar like crazy won't help you and
probably just fill the event queue with a bunch of key presses that
need to be processed slowing the game and input system down.

I certainly didn't have any trouble with that when I played a little while 
ago. Of course my adventure came to a rather nasty end when Angela 
accidentally impaled herself on a spike. I don't know if I just had one of 
those rare occasions where I forgot to make sure my sword was put away first 
or just had a bit of bad luck, but that's what happened.

Re: [Audyssey] using the sword in mota beta14

2010-10-11 Thread Michael Feir
The sword is a very useful weapon. I have no trouble using it. The trio of 
hand-swung weapons works out quite nicely. The whip gives extra range, the 
sword gives extra power, and the dagger gives speed of attack. I like it.

Hi Bryan,
Lol! Yeah, you got to love those spikes. I often end up landing on
those. Kind of fun doing that too. Sometimes I play the game just to
see how many different ways I can kill Angela Carter.

Re: [Audyssey] using the sword in mota beta14

2010-10-11 Thread Bryan Peterson
I used to do the same with the original Prince of Persia. In fact once I get 
more confident with BGT one of my projects is going to be to see if I can 
create an audio only game in as close to the same style of the original 
Prince of Persia as possible. That would include the spikes that shoot up 
from the ground and of course those smashing jaws that would cut you in half 
if you walked under them at the wrong time. And even back in those days 
player death sound effects could be quite nasty. Getting killed by one of 
those jaws was a prime example.
