Hi all, Well I recently got back into playing Kingdom of Loathing, but I'm stuck on a quest that previously didn't give me a whole lot of trouble. It's the Meatcar quest. I know what I'm supposed to find, and indeed I have all but one of the necessary items, quite a lot of them in some cases. At last count I had nine meat tanks and I don't know how many sets of tires, let alone cogs, springs and sprockets. But the item I cannot seem to find for the life of me is the meat stack. Am I missing something here? I've been searching Degrassi Knoll for several days with no luck. Every workshop and toolbox I find holds items I already have in plenty. About the only up side is that I'm looking at a fair amount of meat when I can sell off all that I don't need. But I could use some hints about where I ought to try looking next for the elusive meat stack since for the life of me, I can't remember. I'd appreciate any hints you can give me. No doubt it's probably so simple that It's going so far over my head that I ought to be able to hear it bumping the ceiling above my bed. No pizza.

Re: [Audyssey] further information on voice buddy
hi. i wonder if the cobra screen reader might be of help in this sort of situation where the text is drawn graphically. as I understand it cobra does have a feature where it can try to OCR the screen of graphical applications and convert it into text. once it is converted you can apparently click on things within that text to perform commands. Of course I haven't even sceen cobra yet, but this is as I understand it from discussion on another list I am on. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Keep up the great work, Mike On Jul 2, 2009, at 4:24 PM, Thomas Ward wrote: USA Games News July 2, 2009 Introduction Hello gamers, Welcome to the July edition of the USA Games News. A lot has been happening on the programming front, and I think we have some late breaking developments that many of you may be interested in. Genesis 3D In our previous news letter we mentioned we were testing a cross platform version of the Genesis Engine written in Java. Do to technical details the Java version of the engine ran fairly poor on our testers computers. As a result we have decided to discontinue development of the Java based Genesis Engine, and have made the decision to completely rewrite the Genesis Engine from scratch in C+ +. While this is going to be a lot of work it will eventually be worth it in the long run. One of the reasons we have decided to make the switch officially to C++ is the fact our future games will no longer be tied to a specific runtime environment like the Java Runtime Environment, .NET Framework, Mono, Python, etc. Instead each version of the Genesis Engine will be specially designed and compiled for each target operating system. This will have serious advantages over the C# .NET and Java based engines. First, since each version of the engine will be designed for the specific operating system and target platform we can take advantage of each operating systems game programming development libraries. On Linux we could use the SDL API, perhaps use OpenAL for 3d audio support, and take advantage of the Gnome-Speech service natively. On Windows we could use DirectX and Sapi. By having the core of the engine specifically designed for the operating system at hand we can take full advantage of its game programming libraries, accessibility services, and so on directly. Second, by compiling the program as a native Windows, Mac, or Linux executable we will be able to get the maximum speed and system performance out of our future games. No matter how much goes into optimizing runtime environments like the .NET Framework, Sun Java Runtime Environment, Python, etc they still have too much over head to compare with a native C++ application. Sometimes some Java and .NET applications are close to native speeds, but they have a long way to go to being equal to a well written native application. Third, by using C++ we will drastically be reducing the size of our software installations. For example, in the passed if an end user needs to upgrade to the .NET Framework 3.5 and include Managed DirectX that means he/she will have to download and install nearly 500 MB of additional software with our games. Not to mention one of our number one technical support issues has been helping end users get those two dependencies installed and running correctly. So we feel the easiest solution will be to eventually drop support for those technologies and use native Windows, Linux, and Mac libraries directly. Fourth, one of the main reasons we have decided to switch is that Microsoft has made things difficult for us to continue using C# .NET for future game development. Back in 2004 when we started developing games Managed DirectX for .NET was brand new, was being heavily promoted, and we decided to begin writing our games using C# 2003 and Managed DirectX. By 2007 Microsoft announced Managed DirectX was being phased out, and they were replacing it with the Managed XNA Framework. Unfortunately, the Managed XNA Framework requires a developer to use an audio tool called XAct that is fairly unaccessible for a blind developer. However, the core C++ XNA libraries don't have this problem. So it only makes sense to design games using C++ which is a more accessible alternative all around. Finally, if we decide to use the SDL sound mixer we will be able to support compressed file types such as mp3or ogg for large background music and ambience loops. Obviously if we can use mp3 and ogg for large files we will be able to make our future games not only smaller, but easier to download and install. Which I think will agree with everyone regardless if they are on dial up access or on a high speed connection. I know it probably seams like we have been going round and round in circles about what programming language, APIs, etc we will be using for the final Genesis release, and in a sense you would be right. It has taken us a long time to experiment with programming languages and APIs to find something t

This is a must buy for fighting fans and although a bit quirky, definitely worth the buy. Better yet, the limitted edition is the same price as the standard edition of the game, 60 bucks. Until the 28th, all who buy it first get the limitted edition. The edition comes up with the game of course, a two-disk soundtrack, and a bonus blue ray or DVD that gives tutorials on gameplay, as well as detailed character strategies. I hope everyone will give this a look, and hopefully buy it. I know I certainly plan to get it. Now I have a video from youtube, of course, and I hope everyone watches this one and gets the game or at least likes it. This is certainly a unique game, and deserves a lot of attention. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sF2q_sf7NA I hope to get opinions on the game.
