Re: [Audyssey] Eamon and exploration, my thoughts,
To be honest sean, to blame lack of exploritory games on graphics doesn't seem fair. going back to the 80's we have examples like Metroid on the nes, and Turrican on the Amigar which had a massive exploration focus despite being A, graphical and B, symple. Now, graphically, while as Tom's artical suggested there is indeed a bit of a surfit of kill everything games, and I don't just mean action, i mean roleplay grinding, there are stil examples, for instance the recent witcher series (which many of my rp orientated friends are pleased with), which have this factor, though it is getting to the stage where you have to specifically go out and look for those sorts of gamesor series, rathern than just expecting it. Claiming the graphical medium does not have desired elements which occurred in a few good old text adventures just doesn't make sense, heck, my brother has bought all of the Phenix right games for the Ds, which are no holds bard interactive fiction mystery games with a graphical user interface. As to the tech topic, - I really don't see how technical expertees relates to gameplay at all. I myself do not find information technology interesting in it's own right, or at least not more interesting than any other subject, and when compared to astro physics or biology for interest value, probably less interesting. i only really became interested in computing, - as I believe Michael said, at the age of 18, principley because I had obtained the DD manuals on Cd and wanted to work out how to read them, which required me to find out A, how to access files from a Cd, and B, how to load different sorts of text file formats in programs other than word. From that point i've generally worked on a basis of i wish to do X, so will work out how to do X which is I believe what your saying. If there is a convenience factor in installation and configuration, it's just an improvement in the technology. There will always be people who know how to program seriously, just as there will always bee people who know how to weave cloth. The fact that people don't have to spend hours each day working on looms is simply a factor of increasing technology, nothing more, nothing less. To automatically classify more convenience as bad is imho just as problematic as automatically saying all convenience is good (says someone who hand grinds his own coffee). Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Pinball classic?
Hi Thomas, Yeah, it has been at least twenty some years since I have played a real pinball game as well. I liked the older, slower machines with bells etc. The newer ones with digital sounds, digital score boards, multi levels, multi balls etc were just too much for me. Of course the tunnel vision closing in probably didn't help. grin If I ever get to making a pinball game like I have always wanted to do, it will have the old bells and bumper sounds etc. Last night I had fun getting code to return a value of 0 to 20 depending on how much or not I depressed the gas peddle. It just for now then plays the homerh0.wav through homerh20.wav engine sound file. I will cut the stock car sounds a bit later. But it was a fun start.

[Audyssey] Air Hockey

Sorry, but I don't know how American radio works, and the amount and names of your stations are quite confusing. If they are allowed to do this, I would love to listen to an NHL game, so can someone please tell me if these are broadcast over the internet, and, because you guys have so many stations, which station could I hear one on if possible. 2. Now to the games question. My dad and I were trying to see if I could play air hockey, but it wasn't that successful because, as you guys know, the disk blows and bounces all over. My question is, as a totally blind person, do any of you guys play it successfully, what strategy do you use. Do you think, if none of you have an answer, it would somehow help to create a disk that could make some kind of buzz or beep while it's flying, would that be a good way to play near evenly, or equally against a sighted person?

Re: [Audyssey] Air Hockey
Hi Ari. Unfortunately in most arcades where I've seen tables, they don't let you bring your own air hocky disk, so you'd have to modify whatever disk came out of the machine. What you need is a small, constantly beeping buzzer I think which you could slip on to the top of the disk, a bell would be no good sinse it'd only ring when the disk was violently hit. I'd recommend checking somewhere like a gadgit or toy type shop for a small toy or keyring with the requisit sound, unfortunately many such things (such as key finders), usually have to be activated by pressing a button which would obviously be difficult if you were playing hocky. Perhaps you could mutilate a toy to get it's buzzer out? Btw, I'm just having thoughts here which may or may not be helpful, sinse I'm afraid I personally just look for a table with a highly contrasting disk, which admitedly can be a bit of a pest to find. Hth though. Beware the Grue! Dark. - --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

[Audyssey] Table Games was Re: Air Hockey
Hi Ian and Dark, The problem with that is, it takes the fun out, because you're stopping the disk from flying around, which is supposed to happen. Dark, let's for a moment forget about the fact that you need to use the disk that came with the machine, or let's pretend the owner said you can modify it, is there an answer? I've also wondered about this when it comes to things like table football, or even table tennis and pool, because a lot of the time it's really rubbish to not play properly, or have to sit out while the sighted guys have the fun. For snooker, I have heard that some blind people label the balls in braille, like y for yellow, p for pink, r for red, which is interesting. For me, though, as I don't have ready access to a pool table, I have trouble even shooting a ball with a long cue, but that is because I can't practice, I don't think that that's got anything to do at all with being blind. The only problem I think a blind person has, it's impossible to get a visual perspective of the table, but, if you're playing with a sighted person, you can ask if there are any balls in your way, and if you're playing with another blind person, then you'll have to feel very carefully around the table, which sometimes takes ages.

Re: [Audyssey] Air Hockey
Hi Mich, But I can't see how you could have played air hockey in the propper sense, because the wind always changes direction and blows the disk all over the place. I know you could try and hear how it bounces and try and hit it, but wasn't that kind of a hit-and-miss thing, because the disk doesn't bounce predictably, because of the wind it might blow to the total opposite side, and, until it bounces, as far as I can tell, you're none the wiser?

Hi Kevin, Yes you can get knocked out on the easy difficulty level by being hit by the Troll. The Troll takes some of your energy away each time he hits you with his club.

Re: [Audyssey] Sarah
Hi Kevin, The high score tells you how much energy you had when you quit. The chapter is another name for level. In the game you can go from chapter 1 to chapter 11 in one step so I thought chapter would be a better term. Plus the game is based on a series of books which use the chapter term.

[Audyssey] air hockey again
I play for fun but I never do well. Since air is already coming up and supporting the puck, I don't see why a whistle couldn't be built right into the puck--a small hole on one side of the puck for the air to blow through, and on the other side a dip and slit type deal like on the mouthpiece of a recorder. It would still be a bit hard to localize the sound, but I think it would be doable. In the mean time, try my air hockey game at Kara's web site. - Original Message - From: ari aridamoula...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 2009 11:52 AM Subject: [Audyssey] Air Hockey Hi all, I have two questions, the first one is OT, so please answer that directly to me. Because I have recently become interested in ice hockey: 1. Sorry, but I don't know how American radio works, and the amount and names of your stations are quite confusing. If they are allowed to do this, I would love to listen to an NHL game, so can someone please tell me if these are broadcast over the internet, and, because you guys have so many stations, which station could I hear one on if possible. 2. Now to the games question. My dad and I were trying to see if I could play air hockey, but it wasn't that successful because, as you guys know, the disk blows and bounces all over. My question is, as a totally blind person, do any of you guys play it successfully, what strategy do you use. Do you think, if none of you have an answer, it would somehow help to create a disk that could make some kind of buzz or beep while it's flying, would that be a good way to play near evenly, or equally against a sighted person?

Re: [Audyssey] Table Games was Re: Air Hockey
Hi Ari I agree air hockey is quite fast paced and stopping the puck is not what I'd consider in the spirit of the game. However I don't know as though there would be anything to modify the puck with. My reasons would be it would have to stand up to being knocked around and also could a person hear it and react quickly enough. What I try and do is just keep my paddle [or whatever it's called] in front of my goal and hope. Certainly it's kind of hit and miss but not sure what else could effectively be done. For pool the best is for whomever your playing to show you the cue ball and carefully show you where the other balls are in relation to it. Any sort of beeping thing would not be impossible but difficult depending on the pool game being played. I.E. spots and stripes. For snooker I could see the use of Braille on the balls, but I'd imagine it would throw off the shot in some way if only slightly. - Original Message - From: ari aridamoula...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 2009 1:12 PM Subject: [Audyssey] Table Games was Re: Air Hockey Hi Ian and Dark, The problem with that is, it takes the fun out, because you're stopping the disk from flying around, which is supposed to happen. Dark, let's for a moment forget about the fact that you need to use the disk that came with the machine, or let's pretend the owner said you can modify it, is there an answer? I've also wondered about this when it comes to things like table football, or even table tennis and pool, because a lot of the time it's really rubbish to not play properly, or have to sit out while the sighted guys have the fun. For snooker, I have heard that some blind people label the balls in braille, like y for yellow, p for pink, r for red, which is interesting. For me, though, as I don't have ready access to a pool table, I have trouble even shooting a ball with a long cue, but that is because I can't practice, I don't think that that's got anything to do at all with being blind. The only problem I think a blind person has, it's impossible to get a visual perspective of the table, but, if you're playing with a sighted person, you can ask if there are any balls in your way, and if you're playing with another blind person, then you'll have to feel very carefully around the table, which sometimes takes ages.

Re: [Audyssey] air hockey again

Since air is already coming up and supporting the puck, I don't see why a whistle couldn't be built right into the puck--a small hole on one side of the puck for the air to blow through, and on the other side a dip and slit type deal like on the mouthpiece of a recorder. It would still be a bit hard to localize the sound, but I think it would be doable.

Because I have recently become interested in ice hockey: 1. Sorry, but I don't know how American radio works, and the amount and names of your stations are quite confusing. If they are allowed to do this, I would love to listen to an NHL game, so can someone please tell me if these are broadcast over the internet, and, because you guys have so many stations, which station could I hear one on if possible. 2. Now to the games question. My dad and I were trying to see if I could play air hockey, but it wasn't that successful because, as you guys know, the disk blows and bounces all over. My question is, as a totally blind person, do any of you guys play it successfully, what strategy do you use. Do you think, if none of you have an answer, it would somehow help to create a disk that could make some kind of buzz or beep while it's flying, would that be a good way to play near evenly, or equally against a sighted person?

Re: [Audyssey] Table Games was Re: Air Hockey
Perhaps there is a gap in the Vi accessaries markit for something which is the size of a watch battery and makes a continuous beeping sound. I've played pool myself, but only again because the yellow balls contrast with the table. I'm not sure how you'd do snooker pool without some sort of overview feature or feeling the table as you suggest, but for games with a single small ball, for instance golf, a continuous stick on buzzer would be the thing I think. The problem again would be that such a device, despite being symple to make, would have it's price raised by a good few hundred quid as soon as you say the word accessible While not a direct solution to the issue (though possibly handy for golf), I once saw an infra red buzzer. You had a small sensor which you stuck on things, and a control linked with an infra red ray. Press the control, and if the sensor was within a set distance, it'd beep. Very handy (I myself rather fancied it for marking a seat in a theatre or train when I went off to the loo or to grab a coffee), however the three hundred and fifty pound price tag (which I believe given current exchange would be somewhere in the region of eight or nine hundred Usd), deffinately and absolutely put me off.

Re: [Audyssey] Air Hockey
To me, this would be cheating. You're not supposed to stop the puck with your hands. I have heard that some blind people can hear the air moving the puck, although I haven't noticed it. I haven't played the game in years. I helped with the drilling of an air hockey table using a pattern from an issue of Popular Mechanics for a neighbor's kids. I got fairly good with an electric drill during the process.

Because I have recently become interested in ice hockey: 1. Sorry, but I don't know how American radio works, and the amount and names of your stations are quite confusing. If they are allowed to do this, I would love to listen to an NHL game, so can someone please tell me if these are broadcast over the internet, and, because you guys have so many stations, which station could I hear one on if possible. 2. Now to the games question. My dad and I were trying to see if I could play air hockey, but it wasn't that successful because, as you guys know, the disk blows and bounces all over. My question is, as a totally blind person, do any of you guys play it successfully, what strategy do you use. Do you think, if none of you have an answer, it would somehow help to create a disk that could make some kind of buzz or beep while it's flying, would that be a good way to play near evenly, or equally against a sighted person?

Re: [Audyssey] Copywrite and abandonware
Hi Bryan, Snip The question was why accessibility to the blind was such an abhorrent concept to mainstream game designers. I refuse to say alien since we've been trying to explain it to them for years and most refuse to listen. End snip Well, as I have said so many times already most of it comes down to numbers of potential end users and money. If a feature like accessibility isn't going to sell millions of extra copies, and it costs them x to produce that accessibility it isn't going to happen. It is simple supply and demand unfortunately. Another issue to consider is simply that accessibility is not taught in college courses either. Anyone can pick up some programming credits at a local community college, tech school, etc but that will generally consist of programming theory and basic training in language x. None of that training is hands on instruction on ways to make your applications accessible to a blind user. In fact, this lack of understanding among programmers about accessibility needs is why the Gnome foundation has build accessibility directly into the core Gnome 2.x desktop.

The concept on Linux and Mac now is rather than putting accessibility into the hands of the third-party developers that operating system core APIs do what is necessary by default leving the third-party developers to concern themselves with writing the application and let the various access features built into the API handle the access needs for the application by default. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Copywrite and abandonware
True enough, but I'm certain that if these mainstream game designers were to find out where blind gamers congrigate and conduct some accessibility surveys in those communities they would probably attract many more potential customers. People who weren't gamers up until then but had the interest might be encouraged to come forward with their ideas. I just happen to feel that their lack of understanding is as much their own fault for not bothering to find out as it is ours for not being able to enlighten them. And again, we've been trying to enlighten them for years without much success. So while I understand their concerns I don't have much sympathy for them. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 2009 5:14 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Copywrite and abandonware Hi Bryan, Snip The question was why accessibility to the blind was such an abhorrent concept to mainstream game designers.

Re: [Audyssey] Copywrite and abandonware
Hi Dark, Snip It seems to be an unfortunate truth that individually people are pretty decent, collectively they are vile! End snip I agree. That seams to be a universal flaw of the human race. Especially, in a ccorperate environment where very few people actually do all the decision making. I have to say between my communications with Lucas Licensing and my talks with Sony Entertainment I have become totally disgusted and lost all respect for big name corperations of any kind. Any time I have a valid concern, issue, suggestion, etc I get blocked by some peon guarding the gates to the castle. All they will say is thanks for your e-mail, phone call, but we can't let you speak to so and so for such and such regulation bla, bla, bla. Snip This seems to absolutely hold true for game access. The larger the company, the less response we get, where as I've had some great conversations with solo creators or small groups of games about access issues. End snip Been there done that. Main reason is major companies have hired a bunch of flunkies to man the phones, e-mail, who's job must be to discurrage contact with them. The minute you mention access issues with the large companies they thank you for your suggestion and say whatever to get you off the phone as soon as possible. The more honest ones come out and tell you legally they can't take suggestions for their products and services and give you the big kick in the pants to get lost. In my experience smaller companies and definitely the open source comunity are more willing to at least here you out. On Linux if i file a bug someone looks into it fairly rapidly. If I make a suggestion someone on the development team will state if it is possible, feasable, or at least seriously consider my request. I don't feel major corperations do that enough. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

We got to discussing old computer games lik Gobblins and Pirates! both of which titles I would love to see made accessible. And those are probably prime titles for remaking. And since Pirates! was created by one guy if it was possible to contact him we might be abl to get his blessing for creating, if not an exact clone, then at least a game in the same style. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 2009 5:33 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Copywrite and abandonware Hi Dark, Snip It seems to be an unfortunate truth that individually people are pretty decent, collectively they are vile! End snip I agree. That seams to be a universal flaw of the human race. Especially, in a ccorperate environment where very few people actually do all the decision making. I have to say between my communications with Lucas Licensing and my talks with Sony Entertainment I have become totally disgusted and lost all respect for big name corperations of any kind. Any time I have a valid concern, issue, suggestion, etc I get blocked by some peon guarding the gates to the castle. All they will say is thanks for your e-mail, phone call, but we can't let you speak to so and so for such and such regulation bla, bla, bla. Snip This seems to absolutely hold true for game access. The larger the company, the less response we get, where as I've had some great conversations with solo creators or small groups of games about access issues. End snip Been there done that. Main reason is major companies have hired a bunch of flunkies to man the phones, e-mail, who's job must be to discurrage contact with them. The minute you mention access issues with the large companies they thank you for your suggestion and say whatever to get you off the phone as soon as possible. The more honest ones come out and tell you legally they can't take suggestions for their products and services and give you the big kick in the pants to get lost. In my experience smaller companies and definitely the open source comunity are more willing to at least here you out. On Linux if i file a bug someone looks into it fairly rapidly. If I make a suggestion someone on the development team will state if it is possible, feasable, or at least seriously consider my request. I don't feel major corperations do that enough. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Copywrite and abandonware
Hi Dark, Unfortunately that is a highly over simplified view of the problem we face with Prince of Persia. Even if someone like i had the original Dos source code on hand I couldn't just place sounds where they go and get some really cool 3D processing on them. Keep in mind when that game was created there was no such thing as Microsoft DirectX, and from a game programming point of view it was the stone age of game programming. On the MS Dos platform if you wanted to play a sound you have to write or use a custom soundloader program which played the sound back on the sound card. Playing one or two sounds at a time was about all you could expect out of those programs. You definitely couldn't create a game with full 3D virtual effects etc. Not to mention the way Dos programs use the system's hardware are so alien to Windows XP/Vista that they play bloody heck with the Windows hardware access layer that didn't exist at that time. In short we are talking about rewriting the game from scratch. That is the only way to make such games like that both accessible and playable on a modern PC without running into compatibility issues. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Hi Shaun, In short. If they don't give you specific permission to use their copyrighted material or right to redistribute assume therefore it is illegal to do so. No answer from a company is the same as no in the eyes of the law in the majority of cases.

Re: [Audyssey] Copywrite and abandonware
Fair enough tom, I admit my basis for thinking Pop could be accessible was more based on the gameplay than the hardware, sinse it could be done with comparatively few sterrio effects, but it does make sense that it'd be harder adding things that were not already present in the game than writing from scratch. I suppose that sinse I use an exceptionally convenient pre-configured game launcher (which also contains innumerable ways to change the graphic and sound sets of the game as well as the level, time remaining etc), I forget just how old the game is, even though that custom launcher is actually running a pre-configured install of dosbox. Just because it looks and runs like a windows program, I was thinking that it was as compatible as one as well, which I admit was a mistake. I stil hold to the concept idea though, as a way of creating a complex exploration based platformer with a more free form structure than we've seen thus far. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Fwd: RE: games
Hi Milos and all, You need to understand that in the eyes of the law failing to get direct permission to share such files is illegal. It doesn't matter if the company didn't give you a direct no answer. No answer is the same as saying no until there is some written or oral agreement made between the parties that gives you permission. Since I am a list moderator I am afraid i cant' condone the discussion of trading these files without that specifically written permission myself.

Re: [Audyssey] Copywrite and abandonware
Hi Bryan, True, but companies don't see it that way. Sony's immediate reaction to building in more accessibility features like talking menus was something to the effect thanks for the suggestion but that their polacy was not to except ideas, suggestions, etc from end users of their products. If the developers/engineers came up with the idea it would be possibly used, but if not, then that feature had to be disregarded. I felt their polacies were dcompletely anal and they were intentionally ignoring accessibility suggestions do to some corperate polacy or other. Nor would the let me talk to their developers to shoot programming ideas by them.
