I just thought i'd throw in my views about the gma game engine.

Now first off, i must say i don't really like the concept of ace fire, it
sounds fairly limited and i have a feeling ile probably find it boring.

At the end of the day, i think its a shame its come to this. Personally I

ile say this for ace fire, its an ok game, most likely ile probably play it
if i'm drunk or board or both.
One thing i'd like to see in a future update, is the ability to turn that
very anoying music off, the ability to enter a name for the computer, rather
than have those stupid names
Hi list.
on friday i bought ace fire, even though its a very simple game, i like a

I gather from posts on the net that xp and fs2004 don't get on well. the

use fs2004 with jfw, as when i run it, jfw then stops reading the titles of
edit fields out, and it stops reading stuff when
I wonder if I load up window eyes for use with fs2004 if that would avoid

even if this is a work around, I have an idea why don't we e mail those

luckily no need to talk to fs about the jaws issues and fs2004.

still holding up nicely.

I am writing to get peoples thoughts on hosting the audio for the blind
pilots project.
I have just finished downloading all the reuploaded files.
Now a few days ago I offered to host all the audio for the bpp on my
permanant send space max account, to avoid having to reupload files.
the developer seems extremely keen to help, if someone can outline exactly
what the issues are I am sure he might do his best to add support to address
them in IYP
he even gave me a headset recommendation the other day as he was curious why
I haven't tried IYP yet, so I explained to him I
well that's up to you, apparently some jaws users don't eexperience problems
with jaws once they load 2004, but sevral of us have.
there is no harm in killing full screen mode as I guess it will reduce the

if you still have the procedure i gave a

hi list.
just wondering could I get some advice on purchasing IYP?
as I understand when you buy it the purchase form needs your pilot number.
the problem I am having with getting this is that I am starting fs2004,
clicking the fly now button, and then starting IYP.
the program starts, but then I

I downloaded a copy of voice buddy, and I have looked at the list of games
it supports and some of the things you can tell it to tell the games to do.
these include in some of the strategy games things like building particular
weapons or assigning troops to particular groups.
you can also

just wondering if other people have experienced problems with navigating the

tabbed over to the IYP window, jaws is reading me bits of the start menu
when I try to navigate the screen, and if I try to maximise the IYP
Hi.
for me, at least according to jfw, after a time the IYP window just
disappears on me, til it errors out because of no registration being

I suspect that in this latest update robert has unintentionally really
knocked accessibility back to virtually 0.
I have e mailed him trying

I used to have this as an actual plastic game when I was younger. it was
only a minny version unfortunately but still fun.
I once saw a massive version with really big teeth and a plastic pair of
scissors to pull the teeth out with.
the tiny version I actually owned you had to push the
hi.
the solution to getting the game working propperly is to either unload or
put your screen reader to sleep.
as I found til i put jaws to sleep I couldn't navigate with the arrows or
pull teeth.
so what you do is this you load the game, then if you use jaws load your
configuration manager.
Hi.
thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately I can't get it to work my end
because of that stupid program feature which means as soon as it can't
verify your identity it exits.
unfortunately jfw just takes too long to reload.
so it reloads, then pritty much instantly IYP errors and exits.

I have not trained my speech recognition, because as far as I can tell it is

just wondering if someone could tell me how I can switch IYP back to on line

OK, I have another question about torches, at the moment please correct me
