Re: [Audyssey] Judgment Day Audio Demonstration
Hi, I reviewed the trailer yesterday and it sounds really good. Keep up the good work. Whenever you get it ready for release is just fine with me. Can't wait to try out the demo. Rich - Original Message - From: Yohandy To: Gamers Discussion list Sent: Sunday, June 04, 2006 8:36 AM I agree. the game sounds totally awesome. My only suggestion though, is to make it a bit tougher. From the trailer alone, it sounded quite simple. What I'm really excited about is the trophy system. that's something never implemented in an audio game, and I'm looking forward to it. I'm also wondering, how many levels will the game contain? Keep it up man. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

just curious. Why are you reinventing the wheel. Topspeed has it's own community site with all the tracks.

Re: [Audyssey] Self-voicing games versus screen-reader based games
Hi, Ken and all. You braught up some good points. I find Eloquence, Dectalk, etc fine for doing day to day tasks, but put it in something like STFC, and it would ruin the environment I attempted to build. What I did is used Kate, and then edited her voice to sound something like the Enterprise computer, or as close as I could get. The voice is far superior to anything I could get on a screen reader even if I used Kate without the editing. I've demoed STFC before sighted people, and they can not believe the quality of the voice sinthesis used for that game. Another game, Troopenum, used actual human speech for self-voicing. Justin and Dan did an outstanding job on that game, and the self-voicing is top notch. Besides the possability of superior speech I eventually want to break in to other operating systems with my games. Mono for example allows porting of C# .net applications from one platform to another. I can concievably write a new input and audio backend for the games and port to FreeBSD, Mac, Linux, etc.. Java is another highly portable language although it's multimedia features leave much to be desired. The fact is if I build in self-voicing in to the games it won't matter on if the person has Jaws, gnopernicus, Window Eyes, Orca, etc. It will be universally accessible everywhere. Even as I write this I am currently downloading FreeBSD 6.1 because I have heard it has some accessibility improvements over Linux distributions that are out there. If so I may switch from Linux to FreeBSD for my open source Unix-like operating system, and I would like my projects to be as cross platform and portable as possible to and from Windows, and to and from Linux. In todays technology front free operating systems such as FreeBSD and Linux haven't touched much of the blind market yet, but as the cost of living goes up, price of Windows software is harder to keep up, someday down the road I can see more blind computer users looking for lower cost alternatives such as Linux or FreeBSD.

What's up this Sunday? Hope your doing great! About Judgement Day ominous title, gives me the shivers. Seriously, sounds cool. Some suggestions: 1. Do we get to hear the mighty Athier speak? I mean if he's the supreme evil wouldn't he taunt us a little? Or say he'll vanquish the Allies or something? Or is he so evil his power and corruptedness speaks for itself? 2. The base when it makes repairs, gives you nukes etc., I can't hear it well enough to distinguish what it's saying. Can you make it louder, clearer, something? 3. Along those same lines, can you have a louder sound for the airplanes? Couldn't pick them up on my speakers + subwolfer. Maybe a wwII airplane? Always loved those motor sounds. 4. if you die how is judgement done to you. Are thereenslaved nations under the thumb of tyrony? Does the world blow up? What happens? I mean, this is Judgement Day so something spectacular should happen if: a. you lose or b: you win in which case I was expecting more for an ending than game over. *grins* Maybe too high of expectations, if in which case I apologize. Am psyched about the game and it sounds fun as hell. Let me at 'em! Chris ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] question
Hello Chris. Not a dumb question. As most of the members on the list were transfered from yahoogroups those members didn't actually subscribe themselves. There are three ways one can join the list. I'll list them below. 1. Send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and reply to the confirmation. Mailman will generate a random password for your subscription. 2. Send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and in the body not the subject of the message put the line: subscribe some_password Of course change where it says some_password to what ever password you want. This way you still get a confirmation message you need to reply to but you can pick your password from the beginning. In either case you can change your password at any time. 3. Visit the gamers list web site www.audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org where you can subscribe using the form there. Here you can also choose your own password. You will get a confirmation email which you need to reply to. Hope that helps. -- So live that you wouldn't be ashamed to sell the family parrot to the town gossip. Raul A. Gallegos ...
