[Audyssey] New game, crazy party and card battle

2016-05-28 Thread dark
I haven't written up some formal news yet but I think people are going to enjoy 
this one, two gamesin one fantastic package both of types we have been 
interested in for ages, from a new French developer.

http://pragmapragma.free.fr/crazy-party/

the hole game is called crazy party. 

Part of the game, (the crazy party bit), is a mario party style set of 
minigames. These are small arcade games combined with a board game. Play in the 
single player adventure mode to go through different zones and try minigames, 
then play the boards where you earn coins. 
Unlock enough minigames and you can play competitions online against other 
people, both minigames competitions and play on boards.

Then, there is the card battle part. 
this is an rpg strategic battle card game with rules similar to pokemon but 
using a pack of crads. 

Fight your way through several gyms for each card type and earn cards by 
efeating all the enemies in the gym to improve your dec and stratogy. 

Warning, this one takes some playing and experience, though it can also be 
played online against other people when you've got far enough and beaten enough 
gyms. 

I confess I'm totally addicted to this one, so feel free to come and give it a 
try. 

All the best, 

Dark.

Hi I just downloaded the gma cards, I hit the f1 key for help, it shows 
the tree with the contents and topics, but how do you read them? It's 
not showing me how to do it. I'm using system access as my screen 
reader, and i'm using windows 10 64 bit. Thanks in advance. i'd like to 
learn how to play these but if i can't read the help, what good is it?

I think when playing again you have to remember not everyone has the
same background so you should thin about that before judging them on
spelling and things. The most important thing is to try. Next thing is
if your gamers have issues and you want peoople to enjoy and play your
game you will do everything you can to make a wonderful experience for
everyone. At least this is the model I would follow.

 Hi dark,

 Do you have one of the sound packs? That helps because you don't have
 all
 the extra talking of unimportant text? Secondly, don't use coordinate
 based
 combat. Use vector combat. What that is hit the number 7 to aim
 northwest
 or 9 for northeast etc. as a new pilot do space combat with a group. As
 a
 new pilot none of your ships are strong enough to do a single beacon.
 As
 someone new learn to fly in manual mode stick to rats ground combat
 salvage
 etc.

 I plan on art art to play again and would be willing to help out.

I've not seen this, the spelling mistakes thing, but ok.  Not sure how 
long it's been since you've played, but I think things have changed.  
But it's up to you if you want to play again or not.

Dark, the game is not meant to be easy.  I don't know how sighted 
players play the game, but remember that they're skimming the text and 
that's what the pack will do for us.  It'll cut out the the uneeded 
text.  Here's the pack, let me know if you have more questions.

Hi Mike.

Nope I had no pack so whenever I was told where the ship was it was 
super spammy.


I can see the advantage in vector aiming though how do you aim down? 
Also as I said there was a bug sinse whenever I typed "aim +" or "aim 
+ 4" or something like that I got told "choose a coordinate on the new 
z axis" or something like that and I couldn't actually aim at all. I 
got lucky with the rat in the tutorial sinse it was west of me and I 
could just type aim 4 which worked.
Also, why the hell is tracking so spammy, I dn't need to be told "a 
computer voice says" bl bla can't it just give the coordinates? really 
this is a major fault in the game and considering I had one ship 
destroyed and one nearly crippled it was pretty serious, and I've got 
my voice rate set pretty high.


I prefer vip, so a vip pack would be nice anyway, as Vip works much 
better with sapi than mush does (reviewing and such is easier), but I 
will confess I'm a little irritated that a pac is necessary, sinse I 
thought the game was intended to be accessible off the bat anyway, 
really the staff should do a better job with combat display here and 
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this before.


If you could send me the pack I might try again, although I confess 
I'm a bit irritated with the game thus far as it seems amazingly harsh 
when you screw up.
I logged out and got one ship blown up, bye bye starter lone, I messed 
up a ground combat (which I admit was my fault), then I got one ship 
severely crippled and one ship blown to bits in twoimpossible combats 
leaving me with no money, no ship, no suit and no way to progress, 
and  all the suggestion I got was "go beg my alliance" who didn't 
particularly help either (not that I'd go begging money off people).


I couldn't even take out a lone.

If you send me the pack I might give the game another try.

All the best,

Dark.

Hey dark,

I'm glad you asked here, and now that I know it was you, I can help.  
Do you have a pack for SC?  Their is one for VIP, and once we're done 
updating the one for VIP, I'm going to port it to mushclient.  The 
reason I couldn't say this to you on newbie, is because the staff 
don't like players talking about packs on the game.  Once our pack is 
approved by the staff, we can though.  If you need the pack for vip, 
I can drop you a link. Now for your questions.


I'm guessing that you didn't have the pack, so combat was a ton 
harder for you.  With the pack, you'll see the following:


tracking 



In SC, their are two ways to lock on to an enemy.  Coords and 
vectors.  My guess is that you had coords selected as your preferred 
aiming method.  I use vector aiming. W is north, A is west, D is 
east, and so on.


For aiming up and down, I do aim -s, or +s. Remember that sine S is 
at the center of WASD, it tells the game to aim either directly up, 
or down.  You can change this with aim +w, aim -x, and so on.


Let me know if this helps, and if you need the pack.  Hope you decide 
to give the game another try with this information.


Mike.

Ok.  Here we go, I'll try to explain this.  It told you in the tutorial, 
but hopefully I can explain this.


When you want to fight something, move to the enemy. So, M and then pick 
the number.


When you get within one unit of them, type track.  Pick the number, and 
you'll start tracking.  Depending on what target tracking array you have 
installed on your ship, you might lose your track.  If you look at your 
status, you'll see that the stock target array will only keep track of 
your targets 75 percent of the time.  THis can be upgraded with better 
arrays.


Once you've got the enemy tracked, type aim  or, if using 
coords, aim aim.  Once you've got your lock, you just fire.


I think it takes some time to get used to it, as it's not the same as 
promotheus and miriani.  As to needing a pack, you can try to do it 
without one, but I think it's needed for this game.  It's up to you.  
Just use lockmode to change your preferred aiming method.

If there is an updated version of the VIP pack I would love to get a
hold of it. I am sure the pack I have is a couple years old. Over all
to me this is a really good game. Some of the commands get to me
sometimes but that is something that changes between games. Like maybe
because I am use to things this way I would love to be able to type
move to the name of place instead of having to type move then pick a

I'm guessing that you didn't have the pack, so combat was a ton harder for 
you.  With the pack, you'll see the following:

In SC, their are two ways to lock on to an enemy.  Coords and vectors.  My 
guess is that you had coords selected as your preferred aiming method.  I 
use vector aiming. W is north, A is west, D is east, and so on.


For aiming up and down, I do aim -s, or +s. Remember that sine S is at the

Audio no, but there is a text walkthru in the articles room on

It's actually so short I'm surprised people haven't finished it, then again

Re: [Audyssey] Star conquest very irritating

2016-05-28 Thread dark

Hi.

No I don't have a soundpack. I'm not against the idea, but really the game 
should be playable without.
I was! actually fighting rats when I got hit. I also don't know what you 
mean by "vector based combat" I was trying! to aim with the directions like 
7 for north and + for up, but it didn't seem to work whenever I tried to aim 
up, also actually finding where the dam rat was to attack it was a struggle 
sinse scanning took such a long time to say the coordinates it was at and 
tracking only kicked in sometimes.


An explanation of how combat might work against a rat might help, eg, do you 
target first and then track? or do you do the track command? and when is 
scan useful?



All the best,

Dark.

Hi dark,

Do you have one of the sound packs? That helps because you don't have all
the extra talking of unimportant text? Secondly, don't use coordinate 
based

combat. Use vector combat. What that is hit the number 7 to aim northwest
or 9 for northeast etc. as a new pilot do space combat with a group. As a
new pilot none of your ships are strong enough to do a single beacon. As
someone new learn to fly in manual mode stick to rats ground combat 
salvage

etc.

I plan on art art to play again and would be willing to help out.
