Unfortunately the good columnization with virtual curser is a strength of
Hal (and possibly window eyes), and something I like. It's probably not
something niels can actually change without reconfiguring the hole
interface, and to be honest he's already done far more than most devs in
terms of labelling all his images in understandable text.
Probably a better way around would be for some advanced jfw person to
create some scripts for the game, maybe using that hotspot clicker, and then
share them around, indeed I've always been a little confused why someone
doesn't do this, sinse I've heard some advanced jaws users say they got
things running smoothly.
As to nvda, well I suspect that is a situation will which simply will
improve as nvda developes. After all, four years ago when we were looking
at the compatibility of s4, nvda didn't have! a virtual curser at all.
Beware the grue!

The shop screen is a pretty nice mess if you're using NVDA or JFW. I bet
it works a lot better with hal because the game works better with it in
general. I can't help saying that I really miss the list boxes from S3 in
this area a lot. I may have to contact Neil and see if he could do
anything here so the screen contents aren't as scattered as they are now.

Funny darren, I've not had problems with the prechice screen at all, it
looks the same as athe one in four which was quite useable once you got
the knack.
There were a couple of wonky interface elements, particularly with ghost
ships appearing but I'll contact niels about those.

Yay this works! Although the purchase screans for ships and equipment
could
be better and pirate hideouts etc, it's definitely a step in the right
direction.

Hi.
good news!
niels has now finished the patch for smugglers 5 that fixes the combat
problem. Get the patch at http://nbsd.fileburst.com/Smugglers5
_Patch_AllVersions_To_V100c.exe
and just run it to have your copy of the game updated.
it works on the demo or the full versions, so you can now try the demo
too!
And for anyone who wants to download the demo, find it at
http://www.nielsbauergames.com/index.html
Also note that if you buy the game you can get all four! previous
smugglers
games, plus the addon for s3 and I believe s2 for just 2.5 usd! which is
pretty fantastic even taking into account eh fact that unfortunately s2
has
unlabled images of ship parts meaning it's not completely doable with a
screen reader (I don't know about s1).
So enjoy! and please support niels by buying the game. The reason he
didn't!
include the compatibility mode for empires and dungeons 2 was that not
enough people showed interest, so now is the chance to make a real
difference! if you ever wanted complex accessible games, here they are!
Beware the grue!
Dark.
