[Audyssey] further information on voice buddy
Hi. 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 initiate diplomacy with it. voice buddy also allows you to create custom commands and responses. I guess the question is now though would we be able to get feedback from jaws or voice buddy about information we need to no such as results of particular actions or if particular dialogs come up. what do people think? perhaps some of us should try particular games and then once we have done that a group of us could e mail the company about extending voice buddys functionality. I guess the only way to find out is to download or purchase some of the titles it supports just to see what its limitations might be. I wonder if it might be worth talking to the company about extending its functionality even if what it can currently do does proov to be quite limited maybe they might be able to help us with getting it to give more information that we need. does anyone have any thoughts about what games might even be remotely accessible using voice buddy that it might be worth trying? as I guess a lot of these games will be several gbs. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] further information on voice buddy
Hi, Quote I guess the question is now though would we be able to get feedback from jaws or voice buddy about information we need to no such as results of particular actions or if particular dialogs come up. End quote That is extremely doubtful. The reason is that the text messages displayed on the screen in games isn't normal text. The text messages such as menus, pop up messages, etc are drawn directly to the screen via a graphics API such as DirectX or OpenGL. Jaws, Window Eyes, etc can only speak text presented through the Win32 API, and anything drawn to the screen via a graphics API like DirectX might as well be invisible as far as Jaws is concerned.
