Re: [Audyssey] topspeed's release?
Yay for DirectPlay! But on the other hand, besides a few multiplayer-weirdnesses, the whole thing will be cool. I think we're quite bug-free now, but if you really want to report bugs, just do so.

Re: [Audyssey] A new free audiogame is available : Pyvox 3
Hi Miloš, Pyvox 3 is a free maze game for one or two players. It is the last game of a series made during a PhD about audiogames. The free game Tampokme was one of them (find the link Télécharger Tampokme if you want it). Others game are not free but with a protection system which require major improvement in term of accessibility : that is the reason why you do not heard about Pyvox 1 and 2. I am sincerily sorry about that. Pyvox 1, 2 and Tampokme are written in python script. Pyvox 3 is in C++. Sorry to make few post about it during the PhD. Let's say that I am a little shy. I think it is more usefull to come here with good news about games that about written papers. In Pyvox 3, the two players can play simultaneously. Commands for player one : just use the arrow key. Commands for player two : h for up, b for down, v for left and n for right. Space bar or enter : pause the game. For those who can see : there is a visual description of the game. Don't look at it otherwise, the challenge loose his interest. For downloading the Pyvox 3, use this link : http://www.ceciaa.com/?cat=loispage=pyvox3 and find on the next page the link named Téléchargez Pyvox 3 / Download Pyvox 3 I hope you will enjoy the game.

Re: [Audyssey] Hello all!
Hi there: Welcome to the list. I'm Jal and I am tucked in the Pacific Northwest. My first mud was discworld and I frequent Miriani, but I have tried Legend mud a few years ago. I found myself very impressed but rather confused on starting out, but I enjoyed it. If I get some time between courses, I'll have to stop by. Welcome and I know what it's like to be totally entrenched in a mud.

Re: [Audyssey] slipgate legacy officially closed, a bit offended at the moment, too
The slipgate post actually cracked me up. And I could understand some of where he was coming from. But what I will say is that while some may be addicted to mudding, there are other addictions out there too. Like coding for a game that you apparently don't want to deal with. Hence it being closed down. So I guess that was a moot point, which is the best that I can come up with at the moment. I guess I said all of that to say this: Don't take it seriously or personally.

Re: [Audyssey] slipgate legacy officially closed, a bit offended at the moment, too
Now, Thomas wrote a much more eloquent message that said most of what I was trying to say. I'm just going to leave all the talking to you since I can't think properly this late at night. I'm a big proponent of the fact that if you don't tell people that they can't, they most likely will. If it isn't written out in stone, people won't know to do it. But sometimes even when written out in stone, there are those who try to lawyer around those rules and find loopholes. I wish that we could play the graphical games as our sighted counterparts. I'm really done now. Jal, falling over. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2008 6:55 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] slipgate legacy officially closed, a bit offended at the moment, too Hi, As for me personally I don't agree with the general tone of his announcement, but I can agree with many of the points he made in that announcement. He pointed out that MOOs are technologically out of date. That to a large degree is true. We have now reached the point where pvp and good roll playing games are done through 3D graphical clients capable of doing far more for a sighted gamer than text based MOOs. Like everything else that is computer related the sighted users tend to go where they can get the best visual and graphical effects, and those left behind are those with visual impairments that can't use the new graphical software, or those geeks that like the text based MOOs for their own personal reasons. As far as creativity and imagination goes I think he may have a valid point. Far too many mud players tend to use ship and character names from their favorite television shows instead of actually thinking up something a little more unique and personally creative. If, for example, you are playing a mud and discover the ship you are about to fight is named Voyager, Enterprise, or Defiant you would naturally assume the player is a Star Trek fan, and he is most likely pretending the mud is an extention of Star Trek. If you were to engage a ship with a name like the Exicuter, Milennium Falcon, etc you might then assume the player was imagining himself to be in the Star Wars universe. This isn't really all that creative, unique, and may detract from the mud for those players wanting something specifically related to the mud universe and not bring in Star Wars, Star Trek, Battle Star Galactica, etc. As a game developer myself I can understand the developers desire to complain about having to compete with big name science fiction ships and characters as he probably wants the players to use there creativity to improve the mud. To make the mud universe more interesting, more creatively diverse, and not mix and match big name science fiction people, places, and things in the mud. His complaint about players coming up with generic or common names like the Salvager is understandable, but a bit over critical. Not everyone is as gifted with creativity and imagination as he thinks he is, and people just joined to have a good time. Trying to think up a cool ship name and unique character profile does take time, and careful thought. I am guessing the majority of the players just signed up, put any old name they felt like on there ships, and got on with there adventure. Yeah, it might b boring, drab, but for that player it is acceptable. He or she was not informed in advanced they had to think up something cool or unique before joining the mud, and then the developer gets angry at them for their lack of creativity and imagination. Finally, the developer does bring up the issue of people with physical impairments as a type of player that frequents his game. Putting us down as he did was just flat out wrong. We aren't able to move on to bigger and better graphical RPG style games, and he knows that. Treating me or anyone else with a physical impairment as a seperate species of human not worth his time is unfairr, but not really surprising. After all, the majority of the people on this list already know what sighted people generally think of blind people anyway. They either think we are inferior to them and can't do anything they can do, or they see an item on the news about a blind musician and collectively assume that blind people are all going to have equal musical talents.
