Re: [Audyssey] Information on the offer and game.
Michael, Your best bet is to get friends to help you, or find someone who also really wants to build the game and is willing to help with it. You're not going to be able to hire a professional programmer; even if you hire offshore programmers, a hundred dollars would buy you one day worth of work at best. In my opinion, it's best to keep money out the picture, since you'll probably be working with friends on it as a hobby project. Money destroys friendships pretty easily.

So that is why I am trying to get someone that will be willing to work with me to put this game together and willing to work out some kind of reasonable price for me to pay for the work. I myself am on low imcome so two hundred is the most that I could pay someone. But get this I am also willing to get sounds and music for the person aswell. I hope someone will do this project, as a matter of fact I am willing to pay a person a hundred dollars each month until the game has been finish. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Audio Archery news.
Hi Thomas, I never even saw the Atari 7800 machine or any of it's games. I just had the Atari 2600 and an Atari 800 XL home computer. I now have trouble remembering which games I played on which machine. But I did also buy an external five and a quarter floppy drive for the Atari 800 XL home computer. That was the second computer that I wrote games for. The first was a Texas Instruments 99 4A. And for that computer I bought a cable that connected to a tape recorder to save files. And the Atari 800 XL home computer was the first computer that I had that talked. It was a program named Sams. Not a screen reader, but it would try to say anything that you typed in. And I mean anything. That was fun. I wish that the sapi5 voices would try to say anything that you typed in. It would also be cool if you could make the sapi5.1 voices sing like the DecTalk. grin But games like my draw poker and star mule I wrote first on those first computers way back when.

Re: [Audyssey] good muds I have used
want to really try batmud, but honestly, have no idea what I'm doing on htere at the start On 5/23/12, Jessica and Trish the Golden Dog yiska...@gmail.com wrote: Hello everyone. First I am new to the list and tend to be long-winded and just reading mostly. The topic of good muds always interests me. After years of trying several different muds including alter aeon I finally settled on one called bat mud. I didn't pick it for friendly players and I definitely didn't pick it for hack and slash or even for questing. I picked it because of its great crafting and herb and merchant system. At first batmud doesn't seem to be friendly however with a few setting changes with the set command on the mud itself it can be very speech friendly. First you want to type set text only to on. After this you can basically change whatever settings you like. set show is what you use to see the settings, what they are currently set at and their numbers. For inmance set 24 on I think is text only to on. Really that is the only command you really absolutely need although others are helpful. I prefer batmud. However I have played aardwolf, Materia Magica, Discworld, Medievia, alter aeon, Avatarmud, the Iron Reaealms muds. All are good and all are aessible to the blind. Most have friendly players. Really it depends not so much on accessibility as on what your looking for. I have tried several muds that say they have a great crafting system only to find out it was very minimal compared to batmud. I could go on here why I don't like the other games I mentioned above but that may make you think they are bad games and that is simply not true. Anyway one thing does bother me however. And in no way am I faulting anyone. But it is this idea that some muds are more accessible to the blind than others. This always bothers me. Because every mud I have ever played has always been fully completely accessible. Some of them now such as alter aeon, aardwolf, materiamagica and discworld have settings specifically to help blind people out a bit. But in most cases those settings are already there available for your changing as you like. There usually is no need to change the port you connect too or such like. I fear that some games have made it in a way to easy for blind players. Sure it is nice to have everything set up when you first enter the game but it doesn't teach you how to change settings and the like. I always prefer to change my own settings the way I want. Maybe that is why I never stuck with alter aeon. That and the fact I just do not like killing things all the time which is also why I didn't stick with most of the other games above. All muds are accessible unless they are graphical. you only need to figure them out. And no matter what pick a mud to your interests and desires. Really only topmudsites and mudconnect can help you out there. Advice from other people helps yes. But ultimately just trying out different muds that fit your interest can really help you out. I probably should not say this. But medievia's author has said that they will not make medievia accessible to the blind. First I want to say they don't have too. But I would stay away from medievia. The author never sticks to their word and all they want is more players. They claim medievia is the best game out there and growing but it isn't true. Also people on there can player kill you for no reason. And a lot of them don't stick to pk rules that are set up. Medievia is definitely good if you prefer hack and slash. But given the choice if I were you I would pick alter aeon over medievia any day. No offence to the alter aeon programmerofswith but they aren't the only accessible mud out there. Nor in my opinion are they the best. But I have different interests that alter aeon provides. Pick what you like. Find a mud you like and enjoy. Only then will you be content with the mud you have picled. Jessica --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] good muds I have used
Hi. Ok I will do my best do explain batmud setup a little more. I have forgotten a lot of it as it has been a while since I created a character. First, you are only allowed two characters on batmud and only one can be logged in at a time. So pick the name you really like. Don't worry so much about race and such. You can always reincarnate to something else. Over the time I have played I have heard ranger is a very good new player guild. They would pick the nomad background and then probably a giant cyclops or the like as your race. Then ask someone either on newbie channel or in the ranger guild to help you to that guild or to give the whereami coordinates. It helps a lot if you explain your blind and use a screen reader and can't see the map. Some batmud map sites searched for on google you can right click on a link and then copy it to the clipboard and then paste it from the clipboard to get the whereami coordinates for an area. Once you know those coordinates you can basically get to that location. whereami is a command you can type to find out your current coordinates. This is really helpful when your trying to get some where. All major cities, ferries and areas have these on map sites online or you can ask help in game explaining why you need the help. Batmud is not a game you learn fast you must take your time. Here are some commands I hope will help or how to find out these commands. I already explained the whereami command. Having brief on always helps. That way you only look at a room when you want in the usual typing l way. Do set show to list your settings options. The first one you want to set is text-only to on. So find that option and then type set number of toxt only to on. For example if text-only is 24 type set 24 on. I also set everything that will help with keeping the amount of text down to a minimum. Really a lot of it after set text-only on is really just personal preference. Text only gets rid of the crazy map and makes moving around a lot easier. I usually set lines to a higher number than 25 but again this is totally personal preference. Most chat channels are off by default which is really nice and beside most of them aren't worth having on anyway. Some people on there don't seem to have good manners sometimes. They call it fun I call it annoying. Really all you have to do once you turn text-only on and set any orr compands you wish to set is just talk on the newbie channel find friends and enjoy. Oh if you battle I turn a lot of battle stuff off. But again totally personal preference. The command you need for that is battle. Just review your screen for proper syntax. If you do set followed by a number it will exlpain what that number does I think and what it is set at. Nice thing about all this set up is it is done once and then your free to do whatever you like. I don't play there much anymore as entombed really is fascinating me and my life is just busy otherwse. Again batmud isn't a go fast speed up the levels game. But you should never ever get bored. And there is enough to interest anyone of most types of interests. If you like hack and slash it is there. If you like exploring tons to explore. If you like crafting and making things and picking plants you can do that too. You can go it alone or group and you can reincarnate if you don't like your guild and background and race. Text only being set to on via the set compand is your key to aessibility.

Re: [Audyssey] Accessible Jeopardy?
Hi, No, but its something that would be nice to see. The closest you can get to that right now is Jim Kitchens Trivia game engine found on htttp://www.kitchensinc.net and perhaps that might be close enough to what you are looking for. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Audio Archery news.
Hi Jim, Well, The Atari 7800 basically had a lot of the same games as the Atari 2600 and 5200, but thanks to more memory and better graphics technology the newer releases for the 7800 had more colors, better graphics, and was just over all better visually.Plus the nice thing about the 7800+ could also play cartrages from the 2600 and 5200 so you could really play any Atari game on it if you wished. It was definitely Atari's best console, but the company went bankrupt before the 7800 really had much of a chance to become popular. In fact, do to Atari going bankrupt many stores sold their stock of 7800's to Odd Lots, AKA Big Lots, where they were sold at rock bottom prices. I remember that's how I ended up with my 7800. My mom and dad purchased a 7800 and several games from Odd Lots, now Big Lots, for under $100. Over the years I've managed to pick up extra games through places like Ebay, and thanks to Atari emulators I can play just about any Atari game I want with my son on the family computer.

I now have trouble remembering which games I played on which machine. But I did also buy an external five and a quarter floppy drive for the Atari 800 XL home computer. That was the second computer that I wrote games for. The first was a Texas Instruments 99 4A. And for that computer I bought a cable that connected to a tape recorder to save files. And the Atari 800 XL home computer was the first computer that I had that talked. It was a program named Sams. Not a screen reader, but it would try to say anything that you typed in. And I mean anything. That was fun. I wish that the sapi5 voices would try to say anything that you typed in. It would also be cool if you could make the sapi5.1 voices sing like the DecTalk. grin But games like my draw poker and star mule I wrote first on those first computers way back when.

Re: [Audyssey] Baseball
Hi Jim, Yeah, I'll say. I've had some close games myself where its bottom of the 9th, the score is tied, and I end up losing by a walk off homer. G...

Re: [Audyssey] Accessible Jeopardy?
You know, I think it would be neat to have one made. I have heard of numerous jeopardy programme, and I see no reason why there should not be one for the blind. I am familiar with Jim's trivia games though. Thanks for the information though!

Re: [Audyssey] Information on the offer and game.
Hi Dark, Well, I didn't have a Nintendo Game Cube therefore couldn't play any Gameboy games on my television. All I had was the tiny screen on the GBA itself. I ended up giving up on the Gameboy simply because I couldn't see the small screen and asking my parents to purchase a Game Cube wasn't an option. Although, I'd have loved to play Tomb Raider: Prophecy on the family 60 inch television. Then, I could see Lara Croft up close and personal. :D Cheers! On 5/24/2012 3:26 AM, dark wrote: Hi Tom. On the gameboy advance and colour, actually I found it one of the best consoles for low vision games,sinse the gameboy player was released for the gamecube that could have the games on a full sized tv, indeed most of my gamecube collection are gba games, and I've had lots of fun with games like mega man zero, kirby's nightmare in dreamland, astro boy and the metroid games. Playing the arcade perfect and enhanced version of final fight for the gba, on my 40 inch screen is pretty cool, and even better than when i used to play it in the arcades back in the day. It will also play standard gb or gb colour games full screen too, just like the super gameboy add on for the snes used to, though actually far better, so i've got the gb colour installments of mega man x as well. Then of course nintendo bought out the ds, and there is no! full screen device for that, thank you very much nintendo! Beware the grue!

[Audyssey] Need help with Mississippi game.
Hey, I am having some trouble getting in contact with the developer of Mississippi. I went to his webpage and send an email but I still havn't recieved anything from him. I have tried to send at least two emails a week to him, so if someone could please help me out with this matter that would be great! The issue that I am having is the game is not taken my register code so I can unlock the full version. I wonder if this could be do to the fact that I install it on a different computer, I havn't had to request a key since I just use it on my old computer. But for some reason it won't take the code on my new computer. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Accessible Jeopardy?
Hi, Well, I think I would have fun creating such a game. I've always loved Jeopardy, the game show, and I'm actually surprised I never thought about doing a computer version. Although, I do wonder what would be the best way to supply the correct question with the current answer. For example, suppose the game gives you an answer like, he was the first president of the United States. You would have to reply, who is George Washington? Given the poor spelling of people on this list having them type the correct question into the answer field could be problematic. If someone spelled Washington Worshington, yes I've seen people do it, the question would be write but spelled wrong. Therefore we'd have to use something like multiple choice. The problem I have with multiple choice is that if a person doesn't know the answer they can guess which generally is not a feature of Jeopardy. Therefore this second method might resolve the spelling issue, but would dumb the game down. Any thoughts?
