hi phil,
a long time ago my friend jason came to my house and let me copy his dos
games since I liked them. if you want some money for them I can pay you
in february. and then I lost his copies over the years. then a while
back he called me saying he found his original coppies on floppy disk.
so i bought a USB floppy drive and got his coppies back. until now he's
been playing them in xp. I told him next time he comes to visit me I
will help him set up the ms-dos virtual machine with the asap screen
reader and maybe tiny-talk and flipper for dos or the free jaws for dos
using the braille n speak server.

Hi Thomas,
I have the rights to both Any Night Football and World Series Baseball.
Carl Mickla wrote the football game in C plus plus for DOS and I got
all his source codes, Harry Hollingsworth wrote the baseball game in
GW basic, but he passed away in 2002.
I also have the source code to it.
I wasn't planning to update them to Windows as Jim Kitchin has two
good Windows games already.
In both games, you play the role of manager or head coatch. But both
use the actuall stats of the teams involved.
The baseball game uses the player's stats, while the football game
only uses team stats.
Each year I would compile new stats for the two world series teams and
the all star teams for that year.
Both were turn based and gave you a menu of plays to call.
A random number was generated at each play or pitch and that number
was modified by the stats to determined the result.
Bothe were passive games in which you couldn't pitch or swing at
pitches and catch the ball in baseball, or you couldn't throw passes
or run with the ball in football.
Phil

Hi Josh,
Those are a couple of good suggestions, but two questions come to mind.
First, Jim Kitchen has a decent self-voicing football and a baseball
game. What advantage would there be in rewriting Any Night Football
and World Series Baseball since there is already two very accessible
and good sports games like those out there for Windows?
Second, if I were to rewrite those games I'd like to contact the
copyright holder for permission prior to doing so. Do you know who has
copyrights over said games?
Cheers!
