Re: [Audyssey] MindCraft for the blind.
Hopefully someone will consider making a game like that. I personally am tired of the usual stuff we get, and would like to see some out-of-the-box thinking. For example, I really want to see a call of duty type of game. Or something like Rise son of Rome. I'm not saying that it's easy of course, as I know nothing of development. I just would like to see us catch up with the mainstream in terms of game titles. And game types. Another example I think would be a game similar to something called world of tanks. I saw a commercial for that's this weekend, and really wish I could play. Mike > On Dec 30, 2013, at 4:24 PM, Thomas Ward wrote: > > Hi Darren: > > Not for something like Minecraft.

Re: [Audyssey] A Note to XP users
Hey Tom, Just wanted to comment. I really hope that at least some games will work with OSX, as I really want to use that as much as I can. I still have to use Windows for office tasks but I'm hopping iWork will solve that. I really feel that the voiceover interaction model where you interact with individual objects is truly revolutionary. I know this is off topic so this is all I'll say on this for now.

[Audyssey] Ice road trucker mod for trucker
A while back I watched a show on the History channel called Ice Road Truckers. This show detailed the dangers and other things faced by truckers as they tried to drive across the arctic ice somewhere in Canada. I was wondering Jim if you thought about either adding a level to Trucker where you try to navigate the ice roads, or maybe creating a game like that?

I bought the original game back in 2006, and haven't regretted it at all, in fact it's a game I've replayed on several occasions. while some elements are slightly rough, there's a lot of fantastic stuff there. The Monkeys stage, the Queen bee, the hunt in the mountain and Torgon battle particularly, in fact I'd say hunt in the mountain stil has some great concepts for a side scroller such as multiple weapons and the locked chest and door system which we've not seen much similar too in other games. Btw, I didn't think the acting was too bad actually, - and if you were remaking the game I certainly hope you'd preserve some elements, such as the Torgon voices which were wonderfully done, I particularly like the one singing rather badly which also sings as it dies! ;D. beware the Grue!

All of my old games from pb-games.com such as Tarzan Junior, Dark Destroyer, Showdown and 3d Snake were all written in JavaScript. This is not a good language for even remotely serious game development, but it was a wonderful sandbox for a curious 12 year old to take the first staggering steps on the road to programming and eventually Q9 and BGT. Grin. Anyhow, these games were written with Internet Explorer 4 in mind and ran very well in that browser, but do not work nearly as nice in newer versions like 7 and 8. The cause of this I know not, I just know that it's a fact. Now to my question. If I were to rewrite and vastly improve these old titles, would you buy them? I am thinking Tarzan Junior especially. That game had some good elements in it, underneath all the bad acting that I'm afraid I was responsible for as well as the now rather sluggish game play. So in short, if I rewrote this game into a good product, would any of you want to spend $30 on it?

[Audyssey] tdv tips
Hello all, I'm very frustrated and would like some tips with tdv. I'm currently playing in raceing m0ode until I get the hang of flying the aircraft, then I'll move into mission mode. Firstly, is there an altitude you should try to stay at? When I go to about 10,000 feet and level off, and also when I try to turn left to turn towards the sound from that dirrection, I constantly hear we're too loose! My airspeed will say something like 900 notts or 1200 nots due to me running my afterburners. This is even at full throttle. I'll worry about landing later, right now I just have trouble staying in the air as my altitude always drops and I always have to pull up again. Any ideas would be great.

So what I did with beta 15 is simply enable target tracking and asigned it to the s key to turn the sight on/off as needed. Plus I've also been adding some extra functions similar to Shades of Doom where you can press a key and get the name of the nearest monster, press another and get the distance to the nearest monster, etc. So beta 15 will be full of alternative ways to get the same information as well as hopefully be a lot more stable.

As I've gotten many complaints about people not knowing if they are close enough to shoot, punch, etc I've already added a feature you can use to get that feedback without necessarily hearing it being panned.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Panning Issues
Let's move forward and stick with what we have. I'm sure you want to get this finished and I personally want the full game so I can play all the levels smiles. I'm not having too much trouble right now with this version. There's no point delaying it even further over this issue. Mike -Original Message- From: Thomas Ward Sent: Wednesday, October 06, 2010 10:30 PM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: [Audyssey] MOTA Panning Issues Hi everyone, Ok, I've basically just spent the better part of today as well as last night looking into a solution for the panning issues for Mysteries of the Ancients, and I'm sorry to say so far I'm not coming up with any viable options or solutions to the problem. As it happpens it is not just OpenAL that doesn't handle stereo panning well, but most of the other audio mixing libraries I have tried don't do it either. At least not the same way it worked in DirectSound. Let me explain the problem further so we are all on the same page. As I mentioned earlier on list OpenAL was mainly designed for games using a 3d audio environment. Therefore sounds are to be renderd using its 3d renderer. This, however, doesn't translate well into a 2d game like MOTA because there is no 2d stereo pan control as such for me to use. Despite a lot of good end user suggestions, e-mailing people, I haven't found any realistic way to make OpenAL pan sounds the way DirectSound does. Everyone I've asked pretty much told me to do it the way I'm already doing it, but the pan effect, as you all know, sounds nothing like the way it did in DirectSound. With that in mind I decided to give SDL, the Simple Direct Media Layer, another try. As it happens SDL Mixer has a stereo pan control, but it doesn't render sounds the same way as DirectSound does. In DirectSound you can set the position of the sound to the far left or the far right and anywhere inbetween by giving it a value between -1 and 1. With SDL Mixer a sound is either left, right, or center with nothing in between. SDL Mixer allows you to control the volume for each speaker individually, but you can't really position the sound in that speaker. So obviously SDL Mixer really isn't a solution here either. In terms of cross-platform audio libraries that leaves us with FMOD by Firelight Technologies. As some of you might remenber we tried this already in a previous beta, perhaps beta 11 or beta 12, and while FMOD does support panning it doesn't exactly sound like DirectSound either. However, based on my personal experience FMOD is probably the closest we can get to DirectSounds pan control. However, FMOD is a commercial library and costs a fortune to license. A single license for one platform is bad enough, but trying to license it for Windows, Linux, and maybe eventually Mac is completely out of my price range. We are talking thousands of dollars for a single game. So that pretty much makes FMOD beyond a realistic solution here. Some might say that going back to DirectSound is probably the best solution, but that too is problematic. First of all by developing games using DirectSound that would rule out any possability of creating games for Mac and Linux. For some of us, who aren't Windows users, this option is unacceptable. Second, even for Windows users using DirectSound is less than a perfect solution in the long run. As I mentioned before DirectSound hasn't been updated for ages, is now deprecated by Microsoft, and is scheduled for removal from the DirectSound API. It only comes with Windows 7 for backwards compatibility with older games, but who knows how long that backwards compatibility will last. Using DirectSound is probably fine for now, but what about down the road when XAudio2 eventually replaces DirectSound on future Windows operating systems? Actually, as of Windows 7 XAudio2 is now the recommended and prefered audio mixer for game developers. The only problem is it doesn't have a stereo pan option either. Like everything else you have to position sounds through its 3d renderer. There may be a way to create a custom pan option, but the way to do it is mostly hypathetical at this point. I'd hate to spend days and even weeks working on trying to research and create my own stereo pan control for XAudio2 when I'm not even sure it will work, or that I can even get the desired results by spending the time and effort. So bottom line we have a fairly big choice to make. We can either return to DirectSound for the short term, worry about finding a new replacement for DirectSound later, or we can just go ahead and cut our losses and go with OpenAL or something else to begin with. I agree that panning sounds with OpenAL isn't quite the same, but I think it is acceptable considering the fact that there really aren't any clear cut alternatives. Plus since I'm mainly thinking about creating 3d first-person games anyway, rather than lots of side-scrollers, the problem we are talking about mainly applies to this single game. Other game

On 9/26/2010 3:31 PM, william lomas wrote: ah shame beta 14 not mac but can wait, smile On Sep 26, 2010, at 9:04 PM, Thomas Ward wrote: Hi everyone, For the past two months or so I have been engaged in modifying the Genesis Engine, and have created a cross-platform version called Open G3D which is Mac OS and Linux compatible. So as a result as of Mysteries of the Ancients beta 14 there will be an official Linux version of the game. The only question left to decide upon is what you would prefer to have in terms of an installation method for the game. The first possibility is to use a packaging tool like dpkg. The advantage here is that I could create an official *.deb package for Debian, Ubuntu, and Vinux distributions of Linux. The advantage here is that by running a command like sudo dpkg -i mota-0.14-i386.deb the package would install everything for you, and would check for dependencies such as SFML, OpenAL, etc. It would be a surefire way of knowing if the system requirements were met before installing. The disadvantage of using a specific package manager like dpkg is that not every Linux distribution out there uses dpkg. I happen to know a few who are fans of Fedora Linux which uses rpm instead. Suse Linux has a different package manager. So if I created a deb package the end user would likely have to use something like alient to convert it if they were using a non-Debian based Linux distribution. That's not quite as good as having a package specifically built for your own distribution of Linux. The second possibility is to write a custom installer such as a bash shell script that simply copies all the libraries, files, and documentation into the directories where they belong. This way is obviously the least distribution specific, and would work on just about any Linux distribution out there with the required dependencies. The only problem I have with this way is that unlike with a package manager like dpkg there really isn't a good way to check if all the requirements are met to install the program. The final possibility is to do what RS Games does and just create a zip file of the game, and have the end user extract it into his/her home directory. This is the absolutely easiest possible installation method out there, but is also kind of messy too. This method takes the least amount of work for me, but like I said it is kind of messy. Generally Linux programs are installed to /usr, /usr/local, or /opt and are not directly installed to someone's home directory. So this method of installation is really up to you guys and if you don't mind creating a Games folder in your home directory to install USA Games titles. So if any of you are Linux users and plan to download and run the Linux version of MOTA beta 14 I'd like to know in advance what is your prefered installation method. I am willing and able to do any of these options. Thanks. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] USA Games News 7/2/2009
Tom, Great news on the decition to go to c++. I'm glad that cross platform, especially mac support is comeing. I'll definitely load windows on my mac to play mota but I'll definitely be happy when the games are natively supported. 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 that works with Mac, Windows, and Linux equally. At last I think we have done it. Admittedly it is more work than I had planned on, but I think it will be well worth it in

Hi everyone, I know earlier I said I wouldn't add random monsters and items to Mysteries of the Ancients, but I think I just changed my mind. I have done some experimental testing with randomly placing a monster in a room and as it turns out I don't think it is going to be all that difficult to do after all. I have added some experimental code to the game engine to randomly generate an enemy when the player activates a trigger. Right now I have only tested this with a couple of monsters, but it works fine. I like the new trigger method of doing things so well I am going to add the new code to the main engine as a full feature. Once I get random monsters working I can do the same with randomly triggering gold coins, healing potions, ancient scrolls, etc. Bottom line now that I figured out an easy and sane way to do it for Mysteries of the Ancients I plan to work on it this weekend. By Monday, luck be with me, I will have a game complete with random items and enemies. I don't know about you guys, but I am suddenly very excited. When the new random generator goes in this game it will blow Montezuma's Revenge away in replay value.

Since this game has nearly 200 pre-orders awaiting to be filled your input on this matter is very important to me. As some of you correctly guessed I had initially planned on redesigning all of the levels from scratch. To give the game a complete new look and feel. However, the new levels aren't set in stone so to speak. I am willing to do some compromising on this matter. Some of you who are interested in the project would like to see the classic Montezuma's Revenge levels return to the game. I can certainly do that, but I might have to make a few miner modifications to them to include some of the new features I have added to the game such as locked statues, new traps, etc. So the first question is, "how many of you are interested in seeing the classic Montezuma's Revenge levels return to MOTA?" On the other hand the new levels I have been drafting are specifically tailored for MOTA and it's unique style of game play. If we decide to go with all new levels that gives me a lot of room to be more creative and give the game a fresh look and feel so to speak. So the second question is, "how many of you are in favor of all new levels?" Thanks. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] my thoughts on second life so far
It is no longer required to use eva for text chatting which is basically what Max the dog does. Once you get on, either Louis, or someone will be there and can give you the script for max the dog. After this, there is an installation package which will install an executable on your machine that will interface with sapi. I can't remember the url but if you add me on skype I can get it to you. Once you are logged in, start this max program. Your default sapi voice will prompt you for your name, type the name which youregestered with in SL. Press enter and it will say "Your name is logged in" after this in the client type /2 speak on and press enter. At this point you won't here it say that it is enabled but hopefully we can fix this at some point. However, it should start reading you messages people send to you.

Re: [Audyssey] Second Life accessibility Updates
Not sure about the cane. The dog will allow you to chat, however navigating via the arrow keys isn't there yet and there's no sound to signify this. The coder is trying to get funding from lindin lab so he can work on this. THe goal is to eventually create a custom client, however, this will take some time. I'm just trying to give him ideas as to how to make the dog more windows like for a blind user.

Re: [Audyssey] problem signing up to second life
The names combo box is for selecting a lastname which will be used in the game world. Webvisum should work for solving the captcha. When the script is given to you, it will be stored in your account not on your comp. If your willing to get sighted help to get started then it would be great if you could help test and give feedback.

Re: [Audyssey] Second Life accessibility Updates
Rather than using eva, max can do this without a serial. If you have aim or something add me and I will send you max, the msi file.

Re: [Audyssey] Second Life accessibility Updates
I have no experience with eva or the cane. The guidedog, max, will read text chats and will soon be able to speak your current location, and hopefully things arround you. This is still at a very early I'd call it alpha stage at the moment, text chat was just put in last night.

Re: [Audyssey] Second Life accessibility Updates
Just a cautionary note. There is no access whatsoever to the log on screen, or any other part of the program using a traditional reader such as jaws. I'm currently working with Louis and some other people to try to figure out a temperary solution for this. The guide dog, max, can now read text chat which is what eva can do at this time. I have louis, the developer of max, and some others on my skype list. I'll ask if I can give there names to you if you'd like.

Re: [Audyssey] Quick USA Games Survey.
Personally, I'd rather get the games released so I think you should release them with what you started using. You can program future titles in c++. I've been hopeing for raceway for several years now and also I was one of the preorderers of monty and I want what I payed for. Not trying to sound rude but let's finish things up and start from scratch with other titles.

I can't remember if this has already been posted but just in case i figured I'd post this bug.
