Hi Michael, Smile. That was Me. I'm in the process of modifying the Piledriver 4.9 database so it has a list of current WWE divas as well as male superstars.

Hi Michael, Michael wrote: I think it's a blessing. He went to God, and God took him before he was possibly lost again. Personally, I wouldn't die in a hospital, if I get the choice. My reply: Yeah, you have a point. Some of these super stars have really messed up lives, and Hawk was really lucky just to die in his sleep while he was getting his life straightened out. Others weren't so lucky. For example, in the 1980's there was a female super star named Sherri Martel. She worked her way steadily through the female devisions of the AWA and NWA becoming three time women's heavy wait champion for those companies before landing a job with the WWF. Once she stepped into the ring with the WWF she won her fourth women's heavy wait championship, and redubbed her ring name Sinsational Sherri. She'd hold the WWF women's belt for 15 months before losing it to, then female rooky, Rockin' Robin. Thing is Sherri Martel was pretty sinsational in the ring. She had the body of a super model, was extremely athletic, and that woman could really move when she wanted to. Her arial moves such as the flying crossbody pin, flying splash, flying drop kicks, etc were truly something to see. Unquestionably a talented athlete in her own right. However, like so many super stars her personal life wasn't so sensational that's for sure. I gather she was something of a party girl into wild sex, drugs, the usual party scene. Eventually, it must have caught up to her in the end because around 2007 there was an announcement on the news and on WWE that Sharri Martel had been found dead in her home from a major drug over dose. I can't help but see that as a stupid waist. Granted her wrestling days were over, as the woman was in her fourties, but she had worked in the 90's as various ring side managers under the names Scary Sharri, Queen Sherri, Sister Sherri, and various other heel rolls the WWF and WCW wanted her to play. She still had many more years of life left in her, and in fact was going to be hired back to the WWE to resume her roll as a ring side manager just before her death. Dumb. Just dumb to kill herself like that accidently or otherwise. Cheers! --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi Jim, I see. Well, I know back when I was using Jaws for Windows. This was perhaps some 10 years ago I could set Jaws to "say all" and it would read everything in the command prompt window. I was using something like frotz and could load up a game like Arthor and it did a decent job of reading text automatically as long as "say all" was enabled. Still I take your point. SAPI and prerecorded speech has given everyone a truly screen reader independant design that doesn't require a screen reader at all let alone weather it has good command prompt/terminal support. For instance, I myself use a screen reader called Orca on Linux. Most of the time it does ok with gnome-terminal, something similar to the Windows command prompt window, and I can run text-based programs in it. Unfortunately, Orca is sort of hit or miss with these games etc. You might be using Scare and it will fail to read all of the text on the screen, and the mouse cursor might not be able to read the text either. For that reason alone when I play Adrift, Tads, or Inform based text adventures under Linux I often exit the graphical user environment all together, log into the shell itself, and use a screen reader called Speakup that was specifically designed for text-based programs. While it doesn't necessarily read the text automatically I can review the screen and see what is going on. So I do understand and know where you are coming from. From that point of view it would be nice just to use speech-dispatcher and shoot the speech out to one of the Cepstral voices, ESpeak, Festival, AT&T Mike, etc rather than fooling with reviewing the screen. On the other hand what I really wanted to do is write a game like Piledriver. I.E. just a simple text -based wrestling game. Nothing too special or complicated which is what we get if we have to include SAPI, unicode support, and all that other crap that goes with Windows API programming. Unfortunately, for a C++ programmer you cant just send an ascii text string like "hello world!" to SAPI 5. Instead the Microsoft Windows API forces you to convert that text string to unicode, and then you can pass it to the Speak() function. That's something of a pain which is one reason I haven't used SAPI in a while. I pretty much have to write my own convert functions to convert a single word or line of text to and from unicode complecating the source code. Plus making it totally operating system specific. I guess the best thing to do here would be to use something like Scansoft Tom and just record everything from scratch. Then, I could use LibSDL, which is totally cross-platform, for sounds, music, sspeech, and input. I'm already doing this for STFC so there is nothing barring me from doing this with a wrestling game as well. Cheers!

He went to God, and God took him before he was possibly lost again. Personally, I wouldn't die in a hospital, if I get the choice.

He died screaming in agony with his lips and tongue splitting from lack of fluids. They tortured him to death, regardless of the leukemia, and even prisoners being executed are treated more kindly than any hospital will for the dying.

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi Thomas, A similar thing happened to me. Many years ago I quit smoking. Apparently my blood pressure went through the roof. My aorta tried to explode. It came darn close to doing so. I did get a life flight helicopter ride to Cleveland. And I now take eleven blood pressure pills every day. Two other times in my life I made healthy changes and they both backfired. Both ended up in hospital stays and medications. No more healthy changes for me. I don't think that my health can take it. BFN - Original Message - Hi Jim, Yeah, tell me about it. I think for me personally I'll never forget the day Owen Hart died. I was watching it live when he fell 78 feet from the roof to the ring below because the harness and buckles weren't tight enough on his flying entrance for the intercontinental match. He came down pretty hard, and I was sitting in my dad's living room watching it when it happened. Well, listening more like as my vision was pretty much gone then, but still it was pretty shocking sitting there listening to this event on pay per view as it unfolded. Then, before the program was over they announced that Owen Hart was pronounced dead on arival at the hospital. He was only 34 years old when he died. That's pretty young yet. Another tragic death in my opinion was the death of Hawk. Throughout the 80's and 90's I guess he had a serious drug habbit, messed around with a lot of women, etc and was really heading for an early death when he finally cleaned his life up. He went through rehab, got married, started going to church, and the next thing you know he just passed away in his sleep. I think it is really sad that the guy lived such a messed up life, only to clean up his act, and then died just when he was really getting his act together. Doesn't seem quite fair does it?

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi Thomas, Other than web based, I do not know of a single blind accessible game that puts text on the screen that gets read automatically by all windows screen readers. It has never worked that way. That is why we have always used recorded speech and or sapi5. BFN - Original Message - Hi Jim, Yeah, the basic idea I had for this wrestling game is to create a text-based game similar to Piledriver or Wrestling League Manager accept I could add sounds, music, and/or create a better A.I. etc for the wrestlers. Make the matches more realistic by tailoring the moves to a wrestlers specific style of wrestling rather than a generic A.I. for all wrestlers. Of course, I could make it self-voicing too, add SAPI support, etc, but I kind of find that unnecessary. The main reason is, and this could be screen reader specific, but with Window-Eyes assoon as the text changes on screen it reads everything automatically. That's why I don't have really a problem with Frotz, Scare, etc for playing text adventures. It reads everything as soon as the screen changes and I don't really have to review the screen unless I missed something or want to check a spelling etc. Naturally, if this is an issue with screen readers like Jaws not properly reading the text prompts I could use SAPI etc, but I hate the idea of having to depend on any Windows specific technology like that. The more dependencies I add the more code I have to remove and rewrite for a non-Windows port. That doubles the time and effort involved. Which brings me to another point you brought up in your message. The main reason I currently don't have a Linux/Mac OS port of Mysteries of the Ancients has to do with the API I was using during beta 14/15. It appears that SFML has a bug in how it handles Windows display drivers causing the API to blue screen and crash on certain Windows PCS. So far the problem doesn't apply to Linux or Mac OS based PCS. Obviously, for a stable comercial project SFML wouldn't work for a game like MOTA. There is an alternative API, which I eventually will be using, called LibSDL. SDL doesn't have any problems with display drivers on Mac, Linux, or Windows, and has decent keyboard and mouse input. The joystick input is not quite up to DirectX quality so that's a disadvantage for software developers. Although, SDL comes with an audio API SDL Mixer I think I'd rather pair SDL with something like FMOD or OpenAL which has superior 3d audio support, more DSP effects, and things like that. Since all of this would take time I decided to roll back to an older version of the engine, one using DirectX, and release MOTA as is and wait for the rewrite of the cross-platform engine. So that's why I have had problems with cross-platform development. However, with our wrestling game none of this has to be an issue. I wasn't really planning on using SDL, DirectX, SFML, etc and simply rely on simple input/output methods that every operating system uses. Creating a simple input system such as pressing b for body slam or v for virticle suplex is easy enough to do without resorting to low level event driven input such as DirectInput or LibSDL provides. Of course, if we are thinking something more than a text based game, something a little more modern with speech, sounds, music, etc then it would probably be better just to use SDL from the start. As far as it being mainstream I wasn't saying i wanted to be mainstream. I was merely pointing out that if I created it as a text-based game some mainstream gamers might play it. True it isn't as fantastic as WWE Raw VS Smackdown for the XBox etc but you never know who might stumble across it and play it. My point simply was that text games still have followers in some mainstream markets, and by writing it as text it might apeal to that market.

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi Jim, Yeah, tell me about it. I think for me personally I'll never forget the day Owen Hart died. I was watching it live when he fell 78 feet from the roof to the ring below because the harness and buckles weren't tight enough on his flying entrance for the intercontinental match. He came down pretty hard, and I was sitting in my dad's living room watching it when it happened. Well, listening more like as my vision was pretty much gone then, but still it was pretty shocking sitting there listening to this event on pay per view as it unfolded. Then, before the program was over they announced that Owen Hart was pronounced dead on arival at the hospital. He was only 34 years old when he died. That's pretty young yet. Another tragic death in my opinion was the death of Hawk. Throughout the 80's and 90's I guess he had a serious drug habbit, messed around with a lot of women, etc and was really heading for an early death when he finally cleaned his life up. He went through rehab, got married, started going to church, and the next thing you know he just passed away in his sleep. I think it is really sad that the guy lived such a messed up life, only to clean up his act, and then died just when he was really getting his act together. Doesn't seem quite fair does it?

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi Jim, Yeah, the basic idea I had for this wrestling game is to create a text-based game similar to Piledriver or Wrestling League Manager accept I could add sounds, music, and/or create a better A.I. etc for the wrestlers. Make the matches more realistic by tailoring the moves to a wrestlers specific style of wrestling rather than a generic A.I. for all wrestlers. Of course, I could make it self-voicing too, add SAPI support, etc, but I kind of find that unnecessary. The main reason is, and this could be screen reader specific, but with Window-Eyes assoon as the text changes on screen it reads everything automatically. That's why I don't have really a problem with Frotz, Scare, etc for playing text adventures. It reads everything as soon as the screen changes and I don't really have to review the screen unless I missed something or want to check a spelling etc. Naturally, if this is an issue with screen readers like Jaws not properly reading the text prompts I could use SAPI etc, but I hate the idea of having to depend on any Windows specific technology like that. The more dependencies I add the more code I have to remove and rewrite for a non-Windows port. That doubles the time and effort involved. Which brings me to another point you brought up in your message. The main reason I currently don't have a Linux/Mac OS port of Mysteries of the Ancients has to do with the API I was using during beta 14/15. It appears that SFML has a bug in how it handles Windows display drivers causing the API to blue screen and crash on certain Windows PCS. So far the problem doesn't apply to Linux or Mac OS based PCS. Obviously, for a stable comercial project SFML wouldn't work for a game like MOTA. There is an alternative API, which I eventually will be using, called LibSDL. SDL doesn't have any problems with display drivers on Mac, Linux, or Windows, and has decent keyboard and mouse input. The joystick input is not quite up to DirectX quality so that's a disadvantage for software developers. Although, SDL comes with an audio API SDL Mixer I think I'd rather pair SDL with something like FMOD or OpenAL which has superior 3d audio support, more DSP effects, and things like that. Since all of this would take time I decided to roll back to an older version of the engine, one using DirectX, and release MOTA as is and wait for the rewrite of the cross-platform engine. So that's why I have had problems with cross-platform development. However, with our wrestling game none of this has to be an issue. I wasn't really planning on using SDL, DirectX, SFML, etc and simply rely on simple input/output methods that every operating system uses. Creating a simple input system such as pressing b for body slam or v for virticle suplex is easy enough to do without resorting to low level event driven input such as DirectInput or LibSDL provides. Of course, if we are thinking something more than a text based game, something a little more modern with speech, sounds, music, etc then it would probably be better just to use SDL from the start. As far as it being mainstream I wasn't saying i wanted to be mainstream. I was merely pointing out that if I created it as a text-based game some mainstream gamers might play it. True it isn't as fantastic as WWE Raw VS Smackdown for the XBox etc but you never know who might stumble across it and play it. My point simply was that text games still have followers in some mainstream markets, and by writing it as text it might apeal to that market.

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi Jim, Well, I have nothing but absolute respect for BGT as a comercial game development tool, but there are a few reasons why I personally wouldn't choose it for an open source project like this. Some reasons are personal, but the main reason has to do with the spirit of the open source movement in the first place. First of all, when an open source developer decides to create something as open source usually he or she decides to use a language and development tools that are an open standard among software developers. If he/she is a C++ developer they might use C++ with the gcc/g++ compilers. If he/she is a Java developer they might use the free tools from Sun or the new Open Java JDK. If he/she is a .Net developer they'll pick something like Monodevelop over Visual C# just because it is free and cross-platform. What all of these languages and tools have in common is they are 100% free, open source, and cross-platform as well. That's what the spirit of open source is all about. With BGT it is a closed source, comertial product, designed for free or comertial games. Its primary drawback is in demo mode you can write code, run it from source,but you can't compile and redistribute anything until you pay $29.00 for the BGT Light version. That's not bad, financially speaking, but it defeats the purpose of a totally free and open standard everyone can use without extra expense. That's why it isn't really for open source developers. Second of all, is this issue over single-platform verses multi-platform development. Someone who is a die-hard Windows user probably won't care if the software is a single-platform or multi-platform application as long as his/her platform, Windows, is supported. However, for those of us who choose not to use Windows and have chosen to use Mac OS, Linux, and so on we feel this general snubbing of non-Windows platforms is both unfair and unnecessary given the fact that more and more cross-platform tools and languages are being developed to handle this problem. So for us it is a big issue. As a result most open source developers do there best to use a fully open standard that allows the software to be recompiled or ported to other operating systems with relative ease. For example, take Mozilla Firefox. Over the last few years it has shot up in popularity, and is now rated by many reputable computer experts to be the leading web browser on the market today. There are two very important reasons why. One, it is open source so that anyone who has an idea how to improve the product can submit source code, patches, upgrades, etc giving it a huge developer base that Microsoft simply doesn't have. Two, it is supported on several operating systems and platforms such as Windows, Mac, Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD, etc. As a result instead of just targeting one single platform and group of users it pretty much covers them all with a single uniform product that works exactly the same for each and every target platform and group. As someone who uses Firefox both on Windows 7 and Ubuntu Linux 10 I rather like having the ability to use the same exact application in both environments. With a game like this wrestling game we were talking about a text application kind of like Piledriver or Wrestling League Manager. Something like that is easy to port from Windows to Linux or Windows to Mac because all we are dealing with is straight text input/output rather than platform specific graphical user interfaces like Win32, GTK+, or coaco. If we want sounds there are cross-platform libraries like OpenAL which would do the job nicely. I just don't see any need to tie the game to any specific platform by using a tool like BGT just because it might be easier to use. As I said earlier BGT is nice, but it goes against the spirit of open source. With open source the general idea is you write the source code, make it available to the public, and then they can do what they want with it. They can build a version for their Apple IPhone, recompile it for Mac OS, I can compile a copy for Linux, Windows users can compile a version for Windows, and everybody is happy. There is no complaint of this or that platform or group of users being ignored or snubbed. Finally, there is the target group itself. You know, up until now I've focussed mainly on accessible audio games. This is a little different. By being text-based it could become a mainstream product. I.E. someone sighted might choose to play it the way many sighted players play text-based games like the PK Girl, Zork, etc. Although, killer graphics etc seems to be the norm as far as mainstream public goes I know many sighted people who still like text games too. So we might find out this game has a bigger player base than something like Mysteries of the Ancients that was only designed specifically for a blind target group. So I don't know if tying it to a blind specific product like BGT is a good idea with that in mind. Smile. On 4/7/11, Jim Kitchen wrote: > Hi
Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi Jim, Oh, yeah. I know. Mis Elizabeth's death was rather tragic and very very unnecessary. I think she was only in her early 40's when she died. It was a drug over dose as I recall. If I remember correctly there was some debate at the time if it was accidental, suicide, or murder. As for Sylvester Ritter, AKA the Junkyard Dog, yeah, I believe he died in a car wreck about 98 or 99. I was at college at the time, and that's why I think it must have been during the late 90's. Too bad as he was a great football player and wrestler. All I can say is he must have had one hard head as in most of his matches he headbutted the aponents multiple times. Plus the funny barks,growls, and doglike antics that made him famous. It was his unique style of brawling. Lol! Cheers!

Actually, there have been a number of wrestling games released the last few years with some allowing you to unlock classic super stars and wrestle them against todays top performers. Sadly some of the performers I grew up watching have started passing away the last few years. Andre the Giant passed away in 93, Hawk from the Road Warriors passed away i think in 2003, and somebody else passed away not too long ago as I recall. So I'm really starting to feel my age when we talk about some of these classic super stars. There is nothing quite like a trip down memory lain. Anyway, it would be a lot of work to write around a certain super star's personality and fighting style, but I think it is necessary. Every performer has his or her own unique style in the ring which makes it so interesting. You have your high fliers, the guys who do a lot of flying moves, and then you have your brawlers who try to beat you into the mat. Other wrestlers specialize in technical moves like headlocks, leg locks, arm locks, etc and try and wear the guy down before going for a pin or submission hold. All of these things are unique, and in my opinion would make for a much more interesting game. No two matches would be alike if each wrestler had his or her own individual A.I. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi, Smile. Oh, I am definitely planning on doing it. There seams to be enough interest so I have plans to work on this here and there as I have time. In fact, what I've decided to do is split the game into two projects. One, will be a WWE Legends type game where you get to play classic super stars like Hulk Hogan, Jake "the snake" Roberts, Junkyard Dog, Greg "the hammer" Valintine, Ricky "the dragon" Steamboat, and Roudy Piper. The other will feature super stars from the last 10 years or so like Big Show, Edge, Cane, CM Punk, etc. So I think that will about cover it. Cheers! On 4/6/11, burakyuksek wrote: > wow!

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi Shaun, That must suck. Why don't they air wrestling in New Zeeland? Here in the states, if you have cable, you can watch lots of wrestling. On Monday night we have Raw and Tough Enough, and on Friday night we have WWE Smackdown. Then, there are several main events on pay per view like Wrestlemania, Backlash, Elimination Chamber, the Royal Rumble, etc. That's just WWE. There is a newer wrestling federation, TNA, which airs on Thirsday nights on Spike as I recall. So for us, at least, there is hours of it each week. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi Jim, Yeah, I've heard of the hall of fame game. Actually, there have been a number of wrestling games released the last few years with some allowing you to unlock classic super stars and wrestle them against todays top performers. Sadly some of the performers I grew up watching have started passing away the last few years. Andre the Giant passed away in 93, Hawk from the Road Warriors passed away i think in 2003, and somebody else passed away not too long ago as I recall. So I'm really starting to feel my age when we talk about some of these classic super stars. There is nothing quite like a trip down memory lain. Anyway, it would be a lot of work to write around a certain super star's personality and fighting style, but I think it is necessary. Every performer has his or her own unique style in the ring which makes it so interesting. You have your high fliers, the guys who do a lot of flying moves, and then you have your brawlers who try to beat you into the mat. Other wrestlers specialize in technical moves like headlocks, leg locks, arm locks, etc and try and wear the guy down before going for a pin or submission hold. All of these things are unique, and in my opinion would make for a much more interesting game. No two matches would be alike if each wrestler had his or her own individual A.I. Cheers!

Hi, He must mean locally as WWE is on every Monday night and Friday night for me. There is Monday night Raw and Tough Enough on USA Network, and on Friday nights is WWE Smackdown on the Sci-Fi channel.

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi, True enough. Although, the fact it is open source does beg the question of what language to write it in. I'm obviously in favor of C/C++, but I get the feeling others might want it written in something a little easier. If it was written in C-Sharp, for example, it might be more easier for someone else other than myself to upgrade. Plus if written using Mono it would be fully cross-platform too. The downside of using .Net is of course you have to have .Net version x installed to play it. That might be alright for some, but I know there are some people who are against .Net inprinciple. Any thoughts/suggestions? Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi Hayden, Yeah, if you mean the online wrestling game I agree. It was not very good. At least a gamelike Pile Driver is easy to learn. It is all menu based so you pretty much push 1, 2, or 3 and then select the move you want to try and perform. That much is cool about Pile Driver. Although, the menus should be a little more wrestler specific as I can't see someone likeKingkong Bundy performing a high flying drop kick. That's more something like Koko B. Ware's style. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
HI Shaun, I'd definitely say you have been out of the scene so to speak. The World Wrestling Federation, WWF, was renamed World Wrestling Entertainment, in 2003, after being sued by the World Wildlife Fund for the WWF name. World Championship Wrestling, WCW, was baught out by the WWE and the two companies merged. There is Extreme Championship Wrestling, ECW, but I don't keep tabs on that like WWE. So there is a bit of history in case you want to know. Cheers!

At 06:30 a.m. 6/04/2011, you wrote: Hi all, Ok, I downloaded these wrestling games, and as advertised they are pretty good. In fact, I just got done playing an awesome match between the Ultimate Warrior, one of my favorite wrestlers of all time, verses the Undertaker in Pile Driver.

If people are actually interested in these sorts of games I think I'd like to rewrite Pile Driver and add some actual sound effects such as crowd ambience, bells for start and end of matches, some general sounds of a body hitting the matt, etc while retaining the text interface.

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi Ken, The elimination chamber is really a cool match. Basically it is a type of steel cage match were there are six wrestlers, who are put in holding chambers, and every couple minutes one of them is released to enter the ring to face one or more aponents who has not been eliminated. There are no count outs, no disqualifications, and anything goes. You are only eliminated by pinfall or submission. The last Elimination Chamber match, in last February, was simply awesome. The current heavy weight champion, Edge, won it by the skin of his teeth. He and Ray Mysterio started the match, and managed to eliminate everyone and were the last two men standing in the ring before Edge took Mysterio down to retain his title. Coding a match like that would be a nightmare. Lol! As far as classic wrestlers and an elimination chamber match goes that would be something to see. A lot would depend on who was in the match. If Andre the Giant was in it he would certainly be the most likely guy to win it. He one more battle royals than anyone else in WWF history as I recall. I know in Wrestlemania II he sure eliminated people left and right. It was really funny when the Hart Foundation tried to double team him, and he tossed them around like a couple of light weights before simply tossing them out of the ring on their heads. Lol! Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi, Hmmm...That's a thought. We will see. The thing is if we are talking a season mode including main events those are kind of era specific. Some of the newer main events like Elimination Chamber are relatively new editions to WWE wrestling so wouldn't apply to 80's and early 90's era wrestling, but would apply to current wrestling matches.

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi, Sounds like a good idea to me. Being open source we pretty much could have an an original version and branch off from there. For example, one aspect of wrestling totally ignored in games is the Women's wrestling. I remember back in the 1980's and 90's some of the women wrestlers for the WWF and Glow were extremely hot looking. Wendy Ricter, Sally the Farmer's Daughter, Rockin' Robin, Holliwood and Vine, etc are as memorable to me as their mail counterparts like Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage. I don't know what any of the newer WWE women wrestlers like Eve look like, but my wife says some of them are nice looking. Unfortunately, I miss the eye candy. Anyway, my point is that women's wrestling is often ignored in favor of male wrestlers. For instance, I know I still remember watching Wrestlemania I live, yes 27 years ago, when Wendy Ricter, accompanied by Cindy Lopper, won the WWF Ladies Championship. It was really a great match up, was one of the best matches in Wrestlemania I, and I certainly wouldn't mind playing a game from a female perspective once and a while. However, most if not all wrestling games I've encountered are strictly male only. Kind of too gender specific in my book. For one thing on WWE there is sometimes mixed gender tag team matches. If you tag your partner and she enters the ring the other female partner for the aposing team must enter the ring which by the very rules usually means you get two completely fresh people in the ring. This completely goes against normal tag team tactics where you can tag in and out and soften up one member of the team at will. It totally changes the strategy and tactics of the match because only male partners can wrestle mmale aponents and female partners can only wrestle female aponents. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
if the game is opensource you could choose to add an editor or add the classic wrestlers and theyr story and if in the future you want to improve -- or some other user is whiling to add the modern wrestlers(since you said the game will be opensource) they can just go and program it. -Mensagem original- De: Thomas Ward Para: Gamers Discussion list Data: Terça, 5 de Abril de 2011 17:11 Assunto: Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games Hi Mike, A couple days back Matheus uploaded a copy of two MS Dos wrestling games, Piledriver and Wrestling League Manager, and the links should be in the list archives.

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi Dark, Lol! Yeah, sometimes soap opera isn't the word for it. Just this year we had Edge's ex, Vikie, who was temperarily put in charge of Raw, and she tried to ban Edge from using his trademark move the spear on anyone. This was an underhanded attempt to get Edge to lose his heavy wait title etc. Never-the-less at the Royal Rumble she gets knocked out and Edge uses the spear anyway and wins the match. Some of the crap they come up with is funny to watch. Edge defacing Del Rio's new Rolls Royce at Wrestlemania 27 was helarious. It is this sort of sidebar action that is absolutely missing in games like Piledriver.

I find some of the descriptions fairly simplistic, not very random from announcement to announcement, and you have no career mode for wrestlers per say. For example, let's assume in our fantasy WWE game the Undertaker has the world heavy wait title. Now, you shouldn't be able to just chalenge him to a match until you have won at least x number of matches, and have litterally become the top contender for the title as far as stats goes. Of course, there are certain main events you might be able to win that will advance your career such as the money in the bank match, winning the royal rumble, or coming out on top in the elimination chamber, etc. If we are talking 1980's WWE wrestling some of these types of matches like the elimination chamber wouldn't exist yet. However, having main events like Wrestlemania etc would make it possible to wrestle an entire season and work your way towards a title match with one of the champions. Plus there is another aspect to wrestling besides the matches themselves. I'm talking about some sort of story mode. Usually, there is always some back story that goes along with the matches. I.E. during a match your apponents friends came out and beat you up causing you to lose that match. Now, you are on a mission to beat each and every one of them and prove you are better than they are. Another story idea is your tag team partner turned on you during your last match and now you challenged him to a one on one match to settle the score. Things like that, although not necessary, adds a bit of drama to the game. I imagine that's why if you watch WWE Smackdown or Raw every week it often seams more like a soap than a sporting event. So, yeah, I basically want to revamp Piledriver and make it more realistic. I also think since it is mainly text anyway I could produce Mac and Linux versions as well. It would go a long way to my goal of creating games that aren't Windows specific, but are great to while away an afternoon. Cheers!

Hi tom. This is just what I would like to see in the game and why I do not personally considder pile driver a correct game at the moment. i do know people who I know watch wrestling not for anything to do with the matches, but entirely to watch the interviews and crazy soap opera style plots that go on, in fact I know people who tape it and just watch the out of match stuff for the story ;D. this is what imho a wrestling game should be like, random events, multiple choice interviews, and matches that work up to something not just throwing a bunch of stats together.

Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games
Hi Matheus, Good point. Although, the one thing that strikes me as problematic with Piledriver in particular is the WWE wrestlers don't often use their trademark moves, or that they perform a move they couldn't perform. Here is an example. I was having a match with King Kong Bundy. Now, anyone knows this guy topped out at something like 468 pounds at the height of his career, and was no great high flier. Never-the-less He jumps up and drop kicks me in the face. I know for a fact the real King Kong Bundy couldn't perform that maneuver. So there are cases were the game doesn't take a wrestlers abilities into account. So I think something like that needs to be corrected to make the game playout more realistically for mine.

hi dark. not true. you can fight in many different matches: tournaments, single, etc. these games are not only "simulators" on my point of view, why? each player have his stats(e.g: number of fights won, lost, etc) so you can have a txt file keeping track of how well you're doing. and since you can create new wrestlers, you can do everything you want, even for example create a text file with a elimination tournament and write how well you're doing. considering that this game was produced in 1990's it's a very impressive work. i didn't said that thomas idea of recreating the game with changes wouldn't be cool, yes, it would.but since we already have 2 of these games, why not create something else like a expandable text rpg with more and more content being added to it, creations of users, dlc content, everything like that. just my opinion. -Mensagem original- De: "dark" Para: "Gamers Discussion list" Data: Terça, 5 de Abril de 2011 20:47 Assunto: Re: [Audyssey] wrestling games Hi Tom. n The principle reason the games haven't got database space, is that they struck me far more as simulators than actual playable games.

In fact, I just got done playing an awesome match between the Ultimate Warrior, one of my favorite wrestlers of all time, verses the Undertaker in Pile Driver. As said, it is a good game, but I personally think I could have done a slightly better job on either game development wise. So that leads me to a question. If people are actually interested in these sorts of games I think I'd like to rewrite Pile Driver and add some actual sound effects such as crowd ambience, bells for start and end of matches, some general sounds of a body hitting the matt, etc while retaining the text interface. What do you guys think? Would you be interested in something like that? Also from what I can tell they are all over the place in terms of professional wrestlers. We have classic WWF/WWE wrestlers such as Hulk Hogan, Rickie Steamboat, Randy Savage, and the Ultimate Warrior and then there are some more current WWE wrestlers like Chris Jarico as well. We've got wrestlers from the NWA and AWA thrown into the mix too. My thought is if I did decide to rewrite one of these wrestling games is we could sort of focus on a specific Federation and/or era. For instance, I'm a huge fan of the 1980's WWE classic super stars so we might have a wrestling game or special mode only to play that era of super stars. Of course, like all true wrestling fans I still watch WWE Smackdown, Raw, and now Tough Enough so would be just as willing to play a game featuring more contemperary super stars like Edge, Ray Mysterio, Big Show, etc. Any thoughts?
