Re: [Audyssey] Adon
Wow! I'd be interested in the sound pack & links for Adom; I have played Nethack on my Linux box, squinting; it'd be great to have a setup like you're talking about.

If you can send me a link I'll put it somewhere. There is also a version of it for the PM, and I've modified the ascii values so that walls and flooring look like they might on a map.

Re: [Audyssey] Adon
Hi Ken. Unfortunately I've not got a braille display at all, but the sound pack sounds very helpful indeed. Could you please upload it to sendspace or similar? Btw, do I need the nhaccess1 file? I remember when I tried nethack before I had to do some random copying and pasting of values from the dos to windows version sinse the nhaccess file wasn't included with the windows package. Any advice would be appreciated. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Adon
Hi Dark Ancient Domains was one of my first accessible rpg's that I played. Granted there is a steep learning curve as to the commands and all the different symbols. *snip* there is absolutely no way of tracking them without using your look command to wander the hole screen. *snip* Very true this is especially annoying when you are attempting to track a few of the villagers. I've sometimes used the JFW curser to track them instead of the look command. *snip* I haven't for example been able to find the village elder at all, and only once have I found the sherrif. *snip* The elder is in a small building with a door facing [I'm guessing here] south. As for the sheriff he's one of those wandering '@' signs. I know of two other quests in the village. There is one you can get from a child, and also a baby dragon though I don't know as these show in each game. *snip* It would be really useful if a basic coordinate system could be added which would alert you of the relative coordinates of objects around you, specifically monsters, items, doors and stairways, also a coordinates system for when using the look command. *snip* I'd also like to see Thomas Bisup implement a 'go to' command like Nethack has, it would make getting to an exit much simpler. *snip* Just my thoughts. I might well contact the dev on this, sinse compared to my nethack experience adom is incredibly accessible. *snip* He does seem quite open to suggestion for improving the game from what I've seen. I've spent many hours with it over the years. All the best Ron --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
