Hello,

Well, if it's anything like Soul Blade or Tekken 3, there will 
probably be a walk-through, strategy guide, and/or FAQ on the game on 
the web.  I know one of the Tekken 3 strategy guides I found was over 
500K, and a small paperback novel is typically 300K in size.  As popular 
as Mortal Kombat was when it came out, you'll probably find something 
similar in size for it.

[Audyssey] sincere request to phil

2011-02-27 Thread NIcol

Hi Phil
I am addressing this to the list so that anyone may comment if they wish.
Me and my mom has a tender relationship and yesterday evening she hold me
tight and I could hear her heart beat.
She have a 6-8 march heart beat.
And then it reminded me of something in the sarah game similar to my mom's
heart beat. And for a while I couldn't think what it was.
Now I remember, it was the dancing of the trolls near the  divination tower.
I am now belonging to the religious organization known as Jehovahs'
witnesses .We are strictly forbidden in our religion to play games
containing the supernatural.
We are told that would mean gross unfaithfulness to God.
So I am so tearfully sorry that I can no longer play sarah.
But phil I will never expect you to refund me.
I just want to know if you or anybody else can upload the sound of the
dancing trolls somewhere?
That sound is very comforting to me.
I just would like to hear that sound if my mom is far away at some stage.
Its much appreciated, but if this is not possible I'll understand.
Regards.

[Audyssey] I need your advice on consoles and playable games


Hi list,

this is mainly for everyone who plays mainstream games on consoles and 
can ggive me some advice.


I found a quite good site where I can rent consoles and games for a good 
price and thought this would be an opportunaty for me to try it out 
before I buy a console.


Now I'd like to get some advice from you on which console would be the 
best choice and which games should I try for it?


I can get pretty much every console available on the market now. PS2 and 
3, Xbox360, Nintendo Wii and DS.


So, which one should I get and which games could I try? I am pretty much 
open for every type of game, as long as it is playable for a blind 
person after learning the controls and menues etc.


So, please keep the ideas coming, I'm very curious now what comes out of 
this. *smiles*


Many thanks for your input and best regards
Sarah

Hi,

That's why I don't watch televangelists, because they're always 
trying to sell you something, and the only recorded time the Lord got 
ticked off enough to get violent was when the money-changers were 
selling crap in His Father's Temple.  Lord said to just drop everything 
and go out and preach the good news and He would take care of 
everything, and televangelists just ain't doing it and are constantly 
begging for money.

I'm a saved Baptist, myself, and like quieter than Pentecostal 
services.  I see little wrong with Dungeons  Dragons and their like.  
Like anything, it can be misused or not.  Playing Quake isn't gonna make 
me go out and worship the devil, especially when I'm doing my darndest 
to punch some couple hundred nails into his apparent minions.
  Being in the lion's den isn't a problem when you know who's Lord Of 
All.

2011-02-27 Thread Phil Vlasak


Hi Nicol,
There are many books that tell about the Christian themes and meanings in 
the Harry Potter books.
the Harry Potter books are essentially Christian fantasy and their 
popularity can be attributed to them being a morality tale.


What's A Christian To Do With Harry Potter by Connie Neal

This book gives insight into the controversy surrounding the Harry Potter 
books and their ethical and morality


So, the Magic in the Sarah game can be considered as miracles from God. As 
God made man and the magic comes from the soul, then the Sarah game is not 
supernatural but from god, and the magic can be used to defeat evil.


I will put up the sound you like on my web page as an mp3.

Re: [Audyssey] sincere request to phil

2011-02-27 Thread dark

Another thought is that, according to wickanism, a spell is simply a 
prayer to god, but done in a symbolic fashion rather than simply sitting 
down and speaking it.


One wickan lady i met said a spell could be as simple as pouring your 
troubles into a cup of water and pouring them away to ask god to remove 
them.


Certainly nothing maligne there, in fact quite the opposite sinse she's 
doing exactly what Catholics do when looking through the rosery, just with 
slightly different symbols.


I actually felt rather sorry for her, and for other wickans sinse they 
recieve a lot of bad press from some very unpleasant narrow minded people 
simply because of popular myth.


As for the idea of something in fantasy literature being wrong or demonic, I 
find that very hard to believe, especially sinse the founder of modern 
Fantasy, tolkien himself was a very confirmed christian and indeed much like 
C s lewis his christian thinking had a deffinite effect on the world he 
created.


Myself I'd worry far more about people who ban books specifically on content 
without reading or considdering them them than people who write stories 
containing a certain subject matter.


I certainly know which  type of people have caused more evil in the world in 
the past.


Beware the grue!

[Audyssey] Problem with Adrift 4.0

Hello everyone,

As you know I've been experimenting with creating some text
adventures. At the moment I'm still playing with Adrift 4.0 simply
because I like the easy user interface. However, I've run into a
rather big problem I can't seam to solve, and this might be a
limitation of the 4.0 generator/runner.

Basically, the game I'm working on has a fairly long intro like three
or four pages. This is necessary to give the player the full story
before getting into the game. Problem is when the game starts you get
the first page, and when you hit enter it litterally skips to the last
page. I'm not sure how to view the two pages in between, and have
everything display correctly. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Re: [Audyssey] I need your advice on consoles and playable games

It's a complex decision... I would recommend the ps3 first as it's my 
preference, and to my knowledge there are more playable games for it. 
I could, however, be terribly mistaken and to all xbox360 fans I 
appologize if that is the case. But the ps3 has a pretty 
straightforward interface, and the controller is great in your hands. 
I've personally always found the xbox controller a bit too bulky... 
and the buttons aren't to my style. But to each their own, and the 
xbox360 does have some amazing games for it.


Having said that, the ps3 has a lot of games as well... most of them 
are available on the xbox360 as well, so whatever system you choose 
won't likely affect your selection of games. Both the consoles allow 
you to download games that are either made by small companies or in 
some cases bigger ones, as well as remakes of old classics such as 
bionic commando for the nes. The xbox360 allows you to do this and 
pay for the games through the computer, whereas the ps3 requires 
sighted assistance. So if you want to buy things off the console 
store, consider that as well before you choose. Here are a few games 
I'd recommend you starting out with.


Super Street Fighter IV
Soul Calibur IV
Rock band series of games... which you need instruments for. So 
unless the site you use offers those with the game, best wait for those. grins.

Blazblue
Any other fighting games you see up there.

Keep in mind that just because it's the first time you're choosing a 
console doesn't mean you have to jump right to the present 
generation. You can get a ps2 as well which, although older, has just 
as many if not more games blind people can play. So look at your 
options and do a bit of research. Personally, there's advantages to 
all three, it just depends on what you're looking for. If you want to 
play online but don't want to pay to do so, then the ps3 is the way 
to go. If you have any more questions, feel free to let me know. Be 
glad to help. smiles.

Re: [Audyssey] I need your advice on consoles and playable games


Hi Bryan,

sorry, but this is a German site and renting stuff is only possible in 
Germany and Austria I think.
But I think there has to be such a service for the US or UK etc. 
somewhere  on the net, too.


Concerning a PS3, I also thought that this would maybe be my best 
option, since I could also play older PS1 and PS2 games on it.

Re: [Audyssey] I need your advice on consoles and playable games

You have to make sure the model will allow you to play them first. 
Those were discontinued quite a while ago.. for ps2 backwards 
compatobility anyway. All ps3s can play ps1 games.

Re: [Audyssey] I need your advice on consoles and playable games


Hi Tommy,

yeah, the MK games are pretty good. That's something I'll definately 
keep in mind.


Unfortunately, the site I was talking about is only available in Germany 
and maybe in Austria. But as I already stated, there has to be something 
simular for other countries, too somewhere. Maybe searching for it in 
google or somewhere might help.

Re: [Audyssey] I need your advice on consoles and playable games


Hi Clement,

thanks for your advice. *smiles*

Yes, I know that most of the console games are available for PSX and 
Xbox all the same.
That's why I thought the PS3 might be the better choice, because I can 
play older PS1 games on it, too. And can I play PS2 games on a PS3 too, 
btw?


Online play is actually not so important for me, since I never was much 
into this PVP things. And I don't think I would buy any games online 
either, as long as the console is only rented for maybe two weeks or so 
at a time. I think the available games on CD should be enough choice to 
pass this time. *smiles*


Yeah, there are instruments with the rock band games there, too. So I 
can try these, though the rent is higher for them of corse because the 
instruments come with them. But that's something I'll think about.


So, I'll definately take a look at fighting games and these rockband 
titles. But I'll take my time and see if any more suggestions come along 
here before I make a decision. *smiles*


Best regards
Sarah

Your question is so broad, there isn't one particular answer that would 
help.  Sudoku is made up of 9 columns and rows of numbers.  The object of 
the game is to arrange them, mostly by filling the blank squares in with 
numbers, so that there is no duplication down a column, across a row, or in 
any diagonal direction.  One way to do this is to fill the grid is each of 3

9 by 9 square grids so that the correct result is the same in each of these 
sections, one by one, then making changes so that the correct result is 
throughout the entire grid.

For a hands on way of solving Sudoku puzzles, you can order a braille book 
from

www.nbp.org

that is a good general book on solving these fun number puzzles.

If you are asking how to operate a specific Sudoku program, I would say to 
view the user's guide that came with it for most of your help.  HTH.

Re: [Audyssey] I need your advice on consoles and playable games

PSX usually refers to ps1. And if you can find an older 60 gb model 
ps3, odds are it'll play both.. so that'll be a good place to start. 
I would recommend asking staff what models they have and whether any 
of them are backwards compatible. Wouldn't mention being blind 
though... might throw them for a loop. lol. As for other games, 
you're pretty much out of luck aside from fighters and music games 
unless you like sports games EG: baseball, hockey, boxing, etc.

Because the braille book has raised illustrations of Sudoku puzzles, as well 
as step by step on how to solve them.  Also, when it comes to something like

Re: [Audyssey] sincere request to phil

Hi Nicol,

Nicol wrote:

I am now belonging to the religious organization known as Jehovahs'
witnesses .We are strictly forbidden in our religion to play games
containing the supernatural. We are told that would mean gross
unfaithfulness to God.

My reply:

Nicol, I know that this is a serious issue for you, but before you
completely close the door on these games I think you might want to
listen to what I say. I know you have said publically on list that
your mother and her minister often keeps trying to convince you that
games dealing with the supernatural is sinful, bad, evil, whatever.
I've been in and out of Christian churches all of my life and most
people, most Christians that is, don't take such a harsh view of books
and games. I would say that many people would find these religious
views extremest and down right fanatical. How do I know that?

Well, for one thing we have fantasy authors like C.S. Louis who wrote
the Chronicals of Narnia. He was most definitely a born again
Christian, and all of his books dealt with fantasy, magic, and the
supernatural. So was he evil?

No, certainly not. Once you set aside all the magic and fantasy themes
of his books you definitely can see his Christian faith underneath it.
For instance, in the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe there is a scene
near the end where the white witch wants to kill Azlan. Azlan like
Christ allows himself to be sacrificed for Narnia, to die for his
people, and at the end he is resurrected from the dead. This is not a
satanic or evil representation of the crucifiction of Christ. Rather
C.S. Louis wanted children to know the value of Christ's crucifiction
through a fantacy setting. To teach them the value of personal
sacrifice over our own selfish desires. To pass along what Christ
said, there is no greater love than this than a man lay down his life
for a friend.

In more recent years the Harry Potter books, movies, and games have
come under extreme fire from religious groups like your mother's. In
most of the cases many of the things they say about the Harry Potter
books, games, and movies is absolutely wrong, and I get the Distinct
impression that most of them haven't even read the books. They simply
spout off religious doctrine without examining for themselves what the
books stand for. In other words they don't even stop to consider the
source. If they would shut up a minute and actually read them they
would find out that many Christian themes and Christian values are
throughout all seven books even though there is a magical and fantasy
setting for them. However, more over to get a sense of what the books
are about we need to look at Joanne Rowling, AKA J.K. Rowling,
herself.

Unlike a lot of authors J.K. Rowling has been very open about her life
before the Harry Potter books came out. What we know is that before
Philosopher’s Stone was released in 1997 Joanne Rowling was a divorced
mother, with a daughter, Jessica, and couldn't find steady employment.
To be frank the woman was flat broke with nothing else better to do
than to write stories. The idea for the books began on a lonely train
ride home, and sort of just grew out of an idea of a magic train
carrying children to school. The train of course in time would become
the Hogwarts Express. Over time she began to see the big picture of
her idea, and began writing Philosopher’s Stone  that would eventually
become a New York Times best seller.

From everything I've read and from viewing her interviews etc I find
Joanne Rowling a very kind, very nice, likable person. She never set
out to make Harry Potter a best seller, she didn't expect it would
ever get published, but it happened anyway. Despite her success she
has never let success go to her head, and has tried to stick to
triditional family values, to Crhistian values, and we can see those
values all through her books. The stories aren't so much about magic
and witchcraft but about loving one another, of doing the right thing
despite the odds, and about being the best person you can be.

For instance, even though Draco was a constant jurk throughout the
seven books when push came to shove Harry Potter showed a willingness
to lay down his own life to pull Draco out of the fire in Deathly
Hallows. This fits the hero mold, and is based on Cristian values and
respect for others. A willingness to love everyone even your own
enemies even if they don't deserve it.

In Goblet of Fire Harry was ordered to rescue Ron, but instead he
tries to take it upon himself to help rescue Hermione, Ron, and
Fleur's sister. The best example of this is when Fleur fails to rescue
her sister Harry goes back to rescue her himself. It would have and
should have caused him to lose the contest, but his moral inclination
to help others in need was more important than winning or losing the
contest itself. It was for this reason he was given a high
score.Proving The moral of the story being that we should always help
those in need regardless of what we may have to

Re: [Audyssey] sincere request to phil

2011-02-27 Thread Charles Rivard

What are your own personal beliefs about playing games?  Those are more 
important then the beliefs of an intolerant Church that bases all games on a 
single aspect that may or may not be the main theme of the game.  The same 
goes for books.  I base my beliefs of a book on what I have read rather than 
what I have been told by others about the book.


In the case of Sarah, do you believe that Phil wants anything to do with 
anything against God, or that he wants others to stray from God?  When 
deciding to play a game or not, I think it is more important to base my 
beliefs of a game's merit on how the game affects me.  If it causes me to 
become a violent person, if it changes my character, if it changes how I 
deal with others, then I should not play that game.


When I was a kid, the church I attended did not believe in the use of cards 
in games.  They believed that playing cards would lead to gambling and was a 
sin.  I did not believe it.  I am not a gambler to this day.  They also did 
not believe in dancing because it would lead to sinful behavior.  They felt 
the same about drinking alcoholic beverages.  I have done all 3 of these 
things.  I am a Christian.  I am not an alcoholic, I do not partake in 
sinful behavior with women, and I do not gamble.  What matters is what you 
do with what is presented to you, not the material itself.  If you allow it 
to affect you in a nonChristian way, it is not the fault of the game, the 
beer, or the women.  It is the fault of you.  I am adult enough to know the 
difference between reality and make believe, and I do not allow one to creep 
into the other.  Phil's game is a game, and nothing more.  Shades of Doom is 
a game, and nothing more.  I will never kill someone in real life because of 
a game I have played or a book I have read.  I am a big fan of the Harry 
Potter series, but will never try to cast a spell to open a door.  I know it 
won't work.

I am addressing this to the list so that anyone may comment if they wish.
Me and my mom has a tender relationship and yesterday evening she hold me
tight and I could hear her heart beat.
She have a 6-8 march heart beat.
And then it reminded me of something in the sarah game similar to my mom's
heart beat. And for a while I couldn't think what it was.
Now I remember, it was the dancing of the trolls near the  divination 
tower.

I am now belonging to the religious organization known as Jehovahs'

We are told that would mean gross unfaithfulness to God.
So I am so tearfully sorry that I can no longer play sarah.
But phil I will never expect you to refund me.
I just want to know if you or anybody else can upload the sound of the
dancing trolls somewhere?
That sound is very comforting to me.
I just would like to hear that sound if my mom is far away at some stage.
Its much appreciated, but if this is not possible I'll understand.

Re: [Audyssey] Problem with Adrift 4.0

Hi Milos,

I probably will if I don't find out any answers here. I was just
checking to see if anyone knows if this is a screen reader thing or an
issue with Adrift itself. However, I would like to point out with
Adrift there actually isn't any programming involved which is one
reason I like it.

Basically, what you have as an IDE with pull down menus and dialog
boxes. To create rooms, characters, and items you simply bring up the
proper dialog box, fill out the fields, click ok and it is added to
the game. Save your work and you have  an instant text adventure. Of
course the fact you do not have direct access to the code is something
of a disadvantage as well.

Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] sincere request to phil

HI Charles,

Well said. I couldn't have said it better myself. I mean some of these
religious types need to just need to relax and look at things
rationally. They also need to draw a line between  harmless make
believe and reality.

I too have been harped on by religious types about alcohol, but they
clearly don't know what they are talking about. I'm not a drunk, an
alcoholic, and I have a glass of beer or wine once and a while and
that doesn't make me into a drunk by any means. Yet there are people
who constantly tell me I'm going to hell because of it. That's just
stupidity talking.

I could talk about my choice in music, the games I play, what I drink,
the way I whare my hair, and some religious person will have something
to complain about. So I don't worry about it. All I care about is my
own personal relationship with God, and let him decide if what I'm
doing is right, wrong, or otherwise. Everyone else can go jump in a
lake if they don't like it.

 do with what is presented to you, not the material itself.  If you allow it
 to affect you in a nonChristian way, it is not the fault of the game, the

Re: [Audyssey] sincere request to phil

2011-02-27 Thread Charles Rivard

Also, here's another thing to ask any Church member who is against, let's 
say, the Harry Potter series.  Two questions:  1.  Have you, yourself, read 
any of the books?  2:  What is more important.  The message or the method of 
conveyance?  I know some people who are dead set against rock music.  I have 
asked them, what about Christian rock?  They are against it because it is 
rock music.  So I tell them that they are narrow minded because they are not 
listening to Christian music, but are focusing on the method used to deliver 
the message.  Jesus would never do such a thing.  When he wanted to get a 
message across to drunks, what did he do?  He went among them.  Was Jesus a 
drunk?  Of course not.  He drank with them, though, didn't he?


I have been told that if Christians see me drinking a beer in a bar, they 
will assume that I am a drunk.  I have pointed out this situation:  In 
Phoenix, Arizona during the summer, the temperature can reach 118 degrees in 
the afternoon.  On the way home, I hear music coming from within a bar.  I 
am thirsty, so I go in and order a beer.  Now, if people see me drinking 
that beer, and they assume that I am a drunk, they are the one doing wrong, 
not me.  They are assuming what is not true.  I finish my beer, get up, and 
walk the rest of the way home.  I did not sin by being a lush.  I merely 
cured my thirst with a tasty drink of beer.

[Audyssey] interesting gameplay from a japanese game

As a lot of people here know, I have a huge thing for games out of
Japan. I love the Japanese culture and language, and games fall into
my interest area. One series I have loved for a long time is the ryu
ga gotoku series, known in the west, aka North America and Europe, as
Yakuza. This is a series of action games for sony's line of consoles.
They aren't just straight beat em ups, however. These are games which
are pretty much crime mysteries based on the japanese underworld of
the Yakuza, which would be the equivalent to our Mafia. These games
are pretty well-known for their free-roaming aspect and lots, and I
mean lots, of cutsceens. All the story, dialog etc is actually
written by a famed yakuza novel-writer.

I talk about this series because although they aren't playable in and
of themselves by totally blind folks, those who have sighted people
around might find some interest in these games. There is a lot more
to do in the game than just beat up thugs... there's minigames,
sidequests, shopping, hostess clubs... tons of stuff to do, all in
the district of Kamuro, which is a fictional recreation of Tokyo's
kabuki. It's a great series, and should be looked into by anyone who
likes exploration and who has some sighted help willing to help.

The gameplay vid below is a sample of a sidegame in the series,
called Ryu ga Gotoku: Kenzan. This game is a spinoff of the main
series, and features the same style of gameplay, exploration etc. But
the time is 1605, and the game features samurai as opposed to
gangsters. This is one of the best examples of the game and series
imo, and takes place in a part of the story where Miyamoto musashi is
fighting a man named Sejuro yoshioka.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3394499/%E9%BE%8D%E3%81%8C%E5%A6%82%E3%81%8F%E3%80%80%E8%A6%8B%E5%8F%82%EF%BC%81%28Ryuu%20ga%20Gotoku%20KENZAN%21%29%20%20vs%20%E6%B8%85%E5%8D%81%E9%83%8E%28Seijuro%29.mp3

Enjoy. Comments or questions about the series welcome as always.

Re: [Audyssey] I need your advice on consoles and playable games

Hi Sarah,

While I may not be entirely up on the games available, the X-Box 
will be the one most likely to break down.  The electronics are shoddy 
inside and tend to burn out quickly, and the software to crash, as 
Microsoft only wants your repeat business.  If it can get you to replace 
your console every year, they'll be in hog heaven.

The Playstation will last the longest of the two, has more 
options come standard, and uses a normal DVD format on it's disks, where 
the X-Box uses an entirely different one.  My Playstation One is still 
going strong, since it was purchased in the 90's, though the laser head 
could probably use a good cleaning by now.  The controllers last a long 
time, as long as you don't throw them at the TV, otherwise they tend to 
break pretty easy when jumping up and down on them.

I dunno zilch about the Nintendo stuff, so take your chances 
there.  Nintendo tends to offer more games for pre-teens, so if you like 
Barney the Purple Dinosaur stuff, Nintendo's the way to go.  Personally, 
I think many of their titles are so juvenile that they're mind-numbingly 
boring.

If it were me, I'd go for a Playstation 3, as it's backwards 
compatible with the Playstation 2 and 1 games piling up in the used game 
stores. If there's a fighter game out there, odds are that it's been 
released for the Playstation..  Since fighters and RPGs are the only 
real game types that interest me, and 3rd person shooters like Tomb 
Raider are no longer playable, I can't offer you much info on software.  

Someone here said Final Fantasy 13 was pretty accessible, 
though, and Square is one of the best game designers around.  Love that 
Final Fantasy series of RPGs.  I must have replayed Final Fantasy 7 
fifteen tines, and want to play it again.  When a game is so engrossing 
that you actually cry when a character gets killed, and then go on a 
rampage to kill their murderer, you have to admit that the game is well 
above the average.  I'm hoping Final Fantasy 13 is another good one.

[Audyssey] translation for vid

I didn't want to go over the limit, so here's the translations from 
the video in a separate message. Keep in mind that Japanese is not my 
first language... and my grammar and vocab are poor at best. But I 
can understand enough to get the gist of the conversation, and I'll 
try and translate best I can.


Sejuro: So it's true... you are miyamoto musashi!
Musashi: You... why are you here?
Sejuro draws his sword
sejuro: something about not having any choice. O think.
Musashi starts to protest, but stops as Sejuro thrusts at him, and 
sidesteps to get out of the way of the blade.
The next few sentences I can't translate, but it comes down to Sejuro 
declaring that he has to fight you and then shouting, Draw your 
Katana, Musashi!
He then proceeds to attack Musashi who uses two swords to block the 
blow. This, for anyone who is curious, was Musashi's trademark and 
what made him historically famous... the idea of using two swords, 
one in each hand. This game has real historic names in it.. but the 
characters themselves are original.
After his blow is blocked by musashi, Sejuro says, Two swords... 
with that I am proved correct. You are miyamoto musashi!


The last bit I can't translate... and then the actual fight starts. 
Again, enjoy the vid... and if people want translations, I can try 
and look them up. Or better yet, if anyone on this list speaks or 
understands Japanese, they could do a better job of translating this 
than I could.

Re: [Audyssey] pkb group dead

2011-02-27 Thread shaun everiss



hmm the zip for the text is below
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1407689/pkb%20archive%20readme.zip

Hmmm what stuff contains.
There is a hastelly scribbled contents in untidy fashon  in the file.
6 wins
 a stones like game, alpha.
archery.
Alpha, 5  rounds with configurable ini file.
blackjack 2.1
game sound packs
which include mods and missions for lonewolf and a mod for startrek 
final conflict ds9 type.

helisim, uncompleted sim for copter.
then there are files for skype, drive cleaning, cd drives and other 
utilities I can't remember off the top of my head.
then there are games for startrek, pc blaster and another  fast 
arcade also stargate sims.

All in states of either finnished or not.
skeeball, a bgt game which is ok for what it is.
table tennis
an alpha again.
and another weird app created around the time of the soccer world cup 
in africa.


Most of this is for autoit, and most of this was never finnished.
These are all playable but make use of these as you wish.
there is another gb of stuff pkb wrote, which consisted of audio 
libs, voice libs and other includes which are no use to players or 
devs its all for the autoit system anyway.
There are a few engine sims which are included in the archive for 
just something to do but the rest of the stuff either does not work, 
is quite broke or just is not much to look at.

Ie wasn't put up to play as yet, testing sfx etc.
Some stuff in fact was never finnished or started but never had 
anything done to it.
There are some games with potentual, like a press your luck game but 
all it had was the output code to run it and nothing else.
in fact before I hacked it it didn't even exit, which it does but 
thats all it does.

Some projects were missing files which I put in.
on that note if anyone is interested I can put up an archive for devs.
This will not have all the gb of stuff pkb did but it will have all 
the libs help files and includes with some examples, and a few other things.
Though most of this was for autoit, the group never got started as 
such on anything else.
There was a train sim but the version I have is quite broke and 
unworthy for any production, it was really not that interesting in 
its current state.

In fact i  fully expect peothe archive to get smaller.
Please review the gamesand programs and what you find usefull.
If many don't find something good I will make it go away from the archive.
 its 500mb in size right now but it could easily get smaller.
The group I think started 2 years ago, it was for making simple games 
and programs.

in its day it was good.

It had a car sound lib somewhere that was put up, but who knows.
it was origionally a groupsim address and a dropbox folder and at one 
stage took 2gb of space dropping to 1.26 gb in size.
The group is not fully dead though as most are on the bgt test folder 
on dropbox.
then again most bgt devs are on there, a few pkb members either test 
or develop.

I know some of our stuff has been superseeded to.

[Audyssey] Fwd: [GameTalk] BSC Games Merge

2011-02-27 Thread shaun everiss




Dear Valued Customer,

On the week of March 1 2011, we are releasing a new version of the
blindsoftware.com website. It will offer all of our customers some new and
beneficial features. First, you will be able to generate a replacement
unlock code yourself for any BSC game or any blindsoftware.com product
through the blindsoftware.com website. This means you no longer have to wait
on a technical support person to manually create your replacement unlock
code and send it to you. You can have it instantly generated for you and
emailed to you any time, any day. Another new feature we will be offering
through the blindsoftware.com website is a new format for our top ten
scoreboards. The new format will permit you to quickly switch between all
top ten scoreboards for any of our games on one single page.

We will also be changing hosting providers for blindsoftware.com on the week
of March 1, 2011. This means that during the week of March 1, 2011 you may
experience errors sending email to blindsoftware.com or you may experience
errors when trying to view the blindsoftware.com website. You may also
experience errors when trying to post scores to our scoreboard server.
Finally, you may experience intermittently seeing the old blindsoftware.com
website and the new blindsoftware.com website. These temporary
inconveniences are normal because we are changing website hosting providers.
This means it can take upwards of two days for the entire world to become
aware of the new hosting provider's DNS name servers. If you are unfamiliar
with DNS name servers, you can perform a quick google search on the words
DNS name servers. So in short, things will be back to normal towards the end
of the week of March 1, 2011.

Since we are offering these new features through the blindsoftware.com
website, starting on the week of March 1, 2011 we will also be discontinuing
the BSC Games.com website. From now on you will be able to download the
games from www.blindsoftware.com and receive technical support for the games
through www.blindsoftware.com.

Even though the BSC Games.com website will be closing, the BSC Games
products are not being discontinued and will continue to be offered through
the blindsoftware.com website. Again, only the BSC Games.com website is
being discontinued. The main reason for closing the BSC Games.com website is
to simplify operations of the company for us by only having to manage one
website for all products. All BSC Games products will continue to be sold
through blindsoftware.com and technical support will continue to be provided
for the games through blindsoftware.com. The top ten scoreboards for all
games will continue to be available through the blindsoftware.com website.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at
supp...@blindsoftware.com but please be aware that the email may be lost
during the transition to our new hosting provider. If you do not get a reply
from us, please email us again towards the end of the week of March 1, 2011.

Thank you for your continued support,

The Blindsoftware.com team.

Re: [Audyssey] Fwd: [GameTalk] BSC Games Merge

2011-02-27 Thread Bryan Peterson

Sounds nice, except that first they need to work on making their games, yes, 
even the classic versions, run better on newer Operating Systems. I don't 
mean to sound harsh but it's that more than anything that's made me lose 
interest in even if not respect for BSC Games over the years. Sad really 
since they were the first audio games I ever played if I remember rightly. I 
realize those folks are busy with work and life in general, but if they're 
hoping to attract newer customers they're eventually going to have to catch 
up however they can.

We are the Knights who say...Ni!

Seems to me that they've forgotten they're sinners again.

But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as 
filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the 
wind, have taken us away.

Fear God, not the devil, because the more power you give the 
devil, the more CRAP the devil has to use against you.  Take it back and 
leave him with nothing.  They said Jesus's miracles were of the devil, 
too, and those were certainly supernatural.  They probably won't 
recognise Him when He stands right in front of them.
