Re: [Audyssey] captcha
That's actually not a bad idea dennis. there used to be a universal forum registration system, whereby you could effectively create a username and account on a general server, and then use this to validate other methods (we had it on audigoames.net for a while), the problem was, other services didn't use it, making it a little pointless. Still, if google setup a similar universal account system requiring mail address, username and password which could be used on other sites rather the way googlecurrently farm their captcha service out to other sites, that would go a good way to creating a nicely accessible system, since if google! used it odds are other people would to.

They're really just ineffective, and even really hard ones still let through more spam accounts than I prefer. We use something a lot stronger. For forum registration, we currently only require a valid player name from Alter Aeon. This makes sense, as really only AA players should be using it. Simply requiring a valid player name, with no capitals, cuts out more spam than any capcha I've ever seen. That said, we still get maybe half a dozen spam registrations per year, when they happen to pick a valid player name out of the blue. For the wiki, we require both a valid player name and the email associated with that player account. For something so simple, it's vastly more effective: the only spam account we've ever seen on the wiki was caused by a bug in the email check. Unfortunately, this really doesn't help other services. AA effectively provides a 'whitelist' of allowed accounts, based on who has created a character - no spammer is going to bother creating an AA account just so they can spam the wiki (at least not yet.) But forums don't really have any way to do that, because you can't verify where new users came from. Facebook and other big sites have tried to set up authentication and login services for other people to use for this purpose, but unless everyone uses the same one, you're still missing out on people. In the future, I'll probably still use the same model, just because I can. I'll have easy, capcha free registration in a place that spammers simply won't bother to hit, then use that registration to allow access to other services. I don't know how that model could be effective for other blind services, but perhaps it's worth thinking about.

He then asked managers to repeat what they heard. Not even the blind screen reader users could do it. Repeating it several times only wasted time. The speed was then brought down to a reasonable level, and we could hear and get it the first time it was announced. Managers still insisted that we crank JAWS up to increase productivity.

Re: [Audyssey] captcha
Hi charlese. I fully agree, indeed my phd has a very similar discussion as part of my deffinition of accessibility, however frequently it's not possible to challenge such measures since, like google's captures they are simply handed down from on high by our mighty corporate or governmental masters, who have as much idea of practical access as a duck does of trade routes across the sahara. It's fine if you can A, challenge such judgements, and B, get the big whig's to listen, as indeed you did in your example with the management idiots, but more often than not that is simply not possible, look at the problems contacting capcom, nintendo or any other company about access measures, or Microsoft's very friendly post xp winows interface as a perfect example. This is another point I've put in my phd, that accessibility's affectivness is only rightly something that can be judged by the deisres of it's recipient, not by anyone else, however that's unfortunately not the way the world works.

Re: [Audyssey] Corporate VS IndependentDeveloperswasModeratorMessage
Hi Tom. that's fair enough, and as I said, I have nothing against an accessible 2D game, it's just that when I see people thinking that Q9 is a comparable game to megaman or even double dragon I do feel a little sad. On the T2002 turrican windows remake forums, one chap mentioned that T2002 was the game he loaded most in windows, and I have to agree. If I have a spare half an hour and want to play a game but don't want the complexity of an rpg, complex stratogy game or similar, I fire up T2002 and go through one of the larger levels, trying to discover more. Indeed, I first ran across the turrican remake in 2006, round about the same time I found shades of doom, and while I spent lots of time playing shades I'd imagine I probably spent more on Turrican, not to mention that was the point I acquired the Megaman aniversery collection so got to try all the nes megaman games I'd missed in the 80s. I think that is actually part of the question. A game like shades or even papasangre (something I've been playing recently), which is an fps movement system, requires considderably more concentration, mental mapping etc to play, an d a 3D game would likely require more still. Does this mean such games shouldn't be made? heck no, I've had a lot of fun from such games over the years, however, thinking about pure exploration which is one of the major things I enjoy in a game like Turrican, it considderably helps if your first concern is not whether your facing the right way or can remember all the keys, or use the object navigator to wander around, but simply what is around the next corner, in the next chamber etc. That is it for me with Turrican, my central thought is the exploration, not navigating the game. I think this would be one advantage of 2D games, if properly designed even in audio. Since the navigation system is! simpler, there is an immediacy that makes the exploration the formost thing, rather the same way there is in a text adventure game (which likely also explains why I've been having so much fun with Eamon deluxe recently), where as even in the best designed first person game, there is a level of concentration and engagement required from the player that gets in the way if you like. it's rather like instruments. I've always said myself I enjoy singing more than playing any instrument, since in singing you are! the instrument, and all the physical feedback of what your doing, the consciousness of your body's position, your muscles etc is immediately and obviously to hand. There is nothing betwene! you and your technique. With other instruments though, say a flute, you need to physically master the insturment, you don't get that physical feedback or sensation, and your technique needs to be in balance with your pressing of the flute keys (this was in fact why i switched from being a wind player to being a singer). With a violin, things are even harder, since you are at second remove from the instrument and aren't even pressing keys, your using a bow to interact, meaning that connectivity is even harder to achieve. For a sighted person of course, none of this applies, since a sighted person has immediate and uncomplicated access to all in game information thanks to top down perception. They do not see! something and think "is that an enemy? a power up, or what?" they simply see it and instantly identify it, same with the space around them, and this applies equally to any game. This isn't to say of course that games which require more complex work or engagement aren't a good idea, afterall, racing and vehicle sim games have a very similar catagory and learning curve, (even for sighted players given the inequity in controls), and can be lots of fun, and I've certainly had fun with the more complex audio games myself, only to note one distinct advantage that 2d games in audio, even ones with sufficiently explorable maps might have over 3d, an obvious and instant engagement to the player, letting the player focus more completely on the game and the exploration of it's world, than in interpreting the environment to which they have limited audio access.

Re: [Audyssey] unable to run Rail Racer Demo on windows8
I don't think that matters tom the licence server has been down for ages now. it has never been that stable and as it was now che is rewriting it well. You can actually play if you have a key and don't register but you can't run any online anything though. At 01:09 AM 4/13/2013, you wrote: Hi Shaun, Yes and no. In theory any .NET 2.0 application will run on .NET 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, or 5.0 because the .NET Framework is .NET 2.0 backward compatible. The problem is that .NET 1.1 and 1.0 are deprecated, and there was a major change from 1.x to 2.0 which introduces some backward compatibility issues when a 1.x app tries to use a newer version of the .NET Framework. So in some cases it will work and in others it won't. So while .NET is usually backward compatible you can't always count on that for .NET 1.x stuff. Although, with Rail Racer I have gotten it to run on Windows 7 without running the .NET 1.1 installer. Its just the licensing tool won't work. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] unable to run Rail Racer Demo on windows8
don't hold your breath. I own a coppy but am unsure if I should write che off as bad or not. it was 1 key for each system which made a licence file. that server was not always up and people coppied them, che then made basically everyone have to buy the game again to get another key. I never got the game by paying as I tested it so I am not going to go and get a crack for it. But to say I am dissapointed that I have a game that I can't play really is an understatement. The only reason I don't even bother is that there are loads of games better than rr in its current thing is. Now if che does in fact end up releasing his game again, with a new system, one that will allow you to move your licence round or at least replace them without having to rebuy maybe something bsc uses with 4 keys per year or something then fine I will go back. To be honest the fact I never payed was one of the reasons I didn't try to continue. At 01:02 AM 4/13/2013, you wrote: All tis talk of Rail Racer has made me want to get back into it.

Re: [Audyssey] I'm sad: Chillingham.
I aggree tom. as they stand the games grizley gulch and chillingham are not that bad exactly. my issue with chillingham was mainly the combat system. you never run out of ammo and although in gg and chillingham you have the 5 position combat system which is quite hard you could get used to that. the puzzles in both games can be tedius you quickly get bored with them though some can be a challenge. There are a few things that could improve both games. 1. full fps style combat you can run out of amo. ofcause there would need to be places to get more. 2. if you get shot or bitten you actually die you don't currently you just loose all your cash. 3. 3d environment or at least one where you wander round. you should be able to run past enemies or jump over them. There are no traps for eather game. At 12:55 AM 4/13/2013, you wrote: Hi Darren, Well, its nice to know they can be made to run on Win 7 so I stand corrected about that then.

Re: [Audyssey] I'm sad: Chillingham.
well maybe making them not exist would be a good thing. xp is due to die in the next 1 year from this month, in april next year xp support is due to die. the games work on vista and 7 aparently but need a bit to get them working and on 8 they don't even work at all aparently. so they were state of the art but now they are so simple and well outdated to put it politely that its not worth it.

Re: [Audyssey] enabling output window in mush z
HI, Great suggestion. So I did look in the output_functions.xml file. It does appear that in there you can change the keys to enable, or toggle, the output window. Also looked around at some of the other xml files in there. One of the files in the plug in folder was CaptureMudOutput.xml. This was written by Shawn Randall. It says that if you type in 'cmo', in lower case and no quotes or anything it will also enable a output window. So I tested it and it works just fine. One thing I did notice is that when you exit and come back you have to re-enable the output window. So another great work around. thanks.

Re: [Audyssey] captcha
In addition to AA, I also run the AA wiki and forums, and I've completely given up on capchas. They're really just ineffective, and even really hard ones still let through more spam accounts than I prefer. We use something a lot stronger. For forum registration, we currently only require a valid player name from Alter Aeon. This makes sense, as really only AA players should be using it. Simply requiring a valid player name, with no capitals, cuts out more spam than any capcha I've ever seen. That said, we still get maybe half a dozen spam registrations per year, when they happen to pick a valid player name out of the blue. For the wiki, we require both a valid player name and the email associated with that player account. For something so simple, it's vastly more effective: the only spam account we've ever seen on the wiki was caused by a bug in the email check. Unfortunately, this really doesn't help other services. AA effectively provides a 'whitelist' of allowed accounts, based on who has created a character - no spammer is going to bother creating an AA account just so they can spam the wiki (at least not yet.) But forums don't really have any way to do that, because you can't verify where new users came from. Facebook and other big sites have tried to set up authentication and login services for other people to use for this purpose, but unless everyone uses the same one, you're still missing out on people. In the future, I'll probably still use the same model, just because I can. I'll have easy, capcha free registration in a place that spammers simply won't bother to hit, then use that registration to allow access to other services. I don't know how that model could be effective for other blind services, but perhaps it's worth thinking about.

Re: [Audyssey] Corporate VS IndependentDeveloperswasModeratorMessage
Hi Dark, Oh, don't tempt me. I already am eager to get working on a 3d FPS game that you and other blind gamers can play more than I want to complete a 2d side-scroller. If I hadn't already taken orders to that effect I'd have scrapped the side-scroller project ages ago and went full 3d FPS all the way. :D All the same I do understand where you are coming from. From an access point of view the 3d graphics and additional complexity of a full 3d environment is difficult to see when your vision is less than perfect. I noticed this problem myself when the third-person games like Tomb Raider came on to the market in 96/97 when my usable vision was pretty much limited to lights and colors. It was much easier to play an old 2d game on a large screen than it was to make out all the confusing 3d graphics and more detailed 3d environments. So I do understand how the advent of 3d games could kill access for you personally. Still, I played them, difficult as they were, and always dreamed that those games could be made accessible to me somehow. I guess for me I had grown up with 2d games in the 80's with original Montezuma's Revenge, Pitfall, Megaman, whatever and I was eager to get into the new stuff but it wasn't as accessible for me. Therefore when I want to write games I want to start out with the stuff I had limited access to rather than revisit games I must have played a million times over. In short, 2d games are in their own way old hat to me even though I realize that this community has had little to know opportunity to play a good quality sample of a side-scroller any more than they have had a full 3d FPS shooter. Its just that I have been there done that, and am ready to move on personally speaking. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] unable to run Rail Racer Demo on windows8
Hi Lenron, That is probably the best option. I know Che is beta testing a new 2.0 version of Rail Racer so perhaps waiting until it comes out is the best decision rather than messing with the older 1.x versions. Now, as to installing DirectX did you try the web setup or the full installer. It might make a big difference which you tried downloading and installing. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] enabling output window in mush z
You switch windows with control and tab. This works for all windows you have open, including muds and outputs. I would imagine it's possible to change the key to enable and disable the output window, though I can't tell you how at the moment. You'd have to look in the output_functions.xml file. - Original Message - From: "Richard Sherman" In my case, I can turn the output window on and off using control alt O. So I went into mush z and poked around even more than before asking my question. Here is what I have under the window menu without the output window enabled: New Window Cascade Tile Horizontally Tile Vertically Arrange Icons Minimize Shift+Ctrl+M Close All Notepad Windows Maximize Restore 1 alter When I enable the output window it has a 2 output listed. But under no menu option that I can find is to enable the output window. If i select new window it just makes another copy of the alter window. Anyone else got any suggestions? Thanks in advance. Shermanator - Original Message - From: "dark" I indeed have the same issue since I have ctrl alt o as a shortcut to open outlook express. i've found that going into the windows menue you can find an option for output which will open the output window in whatever text editer you want instead of using the shortcut, I just then need to remember not to close it. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] unable to run Rail Racer Demo on windows8
Hi Trouble, Yes, exactly. Its not a lot of work porting a game from .NET 1.1 to say .NET 2.0, 3.0, or 4.0. However, given the fact that we now have Windows 8 and .NET 5 out already a developer really needs to continue to upgrade his or her code to keep in line with the technology of today and not continue to be using APIs and libraries from 10 years ago. I don't know if people realize this fact, but .NET 1.0 was released in 2002 and the 1.1 update was released in 2003. Generally speaking Microsoft has a limit of 10 years support on a specific technology, and we are now at that point so I'm not surprised .NET 1.x will not operate on Windows 8. We've already reached the 10 year support limit and .NET 2.0 will be 10 years in 2015. Its important to stay up to date when you are a developer as these technologies are updated and replaced fairly regularly and after 10 years they get taken out of circulation.

Re: [Audyssey] unable to run Rail Racer Demo on windows8
Hi Shaun, Yes and no. In theory any .NET 2.0 application will run on .NET 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, or 5.0 because the .NET Framework is .NET 2.0 backward compatible. The problem is that .NET 1.1 and 1.0 are deprecated, and there was a major change from 1.x to 2.0 which introduces some backward compatibility issues when a 1.x app tries to use a newer version of the .NET Framework. So in some cases it will work and in others it won't. So while .NET is usually backward compatible you can't always count on that for .NET 1.x stuff. Although, with Rail Racer I have gotten it to run on Windows 7 without running the .NET 1.1 installer. Its just the licensing tool won't work. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] I'm sad: Chillingham.
Hi Dark, That's more than I plan to do.. I will not include them in the Audyssey games list as that would seem like an endorsement of some kind. Even if I put warnings on their pages not to buy or deal with Bavisoft I feel if I have to do that might as well remove them completely from the list, and treat them as though they do not exist at all.

Re: [Audyssey] I'm sad: Chillingham.
Just to offer a correction, what actually happened was that since I noticed bavisoft only ever responded to people who threatened to pirate their games, I posted a topic on audiogames.net with the subject "hacked copies of chillingham and grizly gulch available free for download" and then the message actually contained a very serious enquiry as to their status, but they didn't even respond to that, and that was in 2010. For the record audiogames.net does not support posting of cracks and never will. As to bavisoft, well they're a waste of space as far as I'm concerned, I've even relabled their entries in the db as unknown license type and included notes to the effect that trying to order the games is basically throwing your money away.

Re: [Audyssey] Revisiting dragon pass
Hi james. there are lots of stratogy games available, but it depends upon what you want. king of dragon pass is a bit unique since it combines aspects of strategical civilization building games with a full on rpg, there are even gamebook like events to. Unfortunately there is nothing like that available for windows or online, however there are many other stratogy games, either military ones like time of conflict, a varity of online battle ones where you fight against other players, and some specific rpg stratogy games where you engage in turn based battles, examples of this would be the smugglers series. There is even the game lunimals by aprone, an eco system stratogy game, and castaways, a pure civilization building game in which you take control of a small group of shipwrecked survivers. for more info, see the various pages on www.audiogames.net, and www.pcsgames.net.
