Re: [Audyssey] smugglers 5 help
hmmm www.neilsbauergames.com or the audiogames.net news section post is titled shiver me lasers. To be honest I am not impressed really. Ok, in smuglers 4 and 5. Select my info. Select things. I try to travel, I hit space on a planet but no status update on exactly how long to get there and although after a lot of button bashing I can sometimes get pods and artifacts and the ocational treasure I have no idea where to go and what to do even with compatability mode on. In smuglers 1 I can do everything on the main planet but I can't shift to any other planet only get info. After hearing all the things people told me about the games I was itching to buy part of a christmas present. There are manuals in pdf and in game tutorials but hmmm navigation is just that interesting. I have to use my vertual curser all the time and buttons can be in the middle or bottem of the screen. Otherwise I can play sm5 ok ish but not really. At 12:14 a.m. 2/12/2012 -0500, you wrote: Hi, Is Smugglers5 more accessible than the other Smugglers titles? Where would I get it? Thanks. Dave.

Re: [Audyssey] smugglers 5 help
Extremeley! the dolphin curser navigates and clicks on everything quite flawlessly, and though there aren't any standard controls, you can still use various movement commands to get around the screen quickly, particularly ctrl down arrow or the use of the read line command to read information in columns. the only thing to do is when you start the game, go into the dolphin curser and hit ctrl 1 to activate focus lock which will prevent dolphin curser from stopping when you click on things (sinse you will need it on all the time). Hal has always worked very well with the smugglers games right from s3, and s5 is no exception which is another reason I'd highly recommend the series. Beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] smugglers 5 help
Hi david. s5 has basically the same interface and very similar gameplay to s4, but with a huge amount of stuff added, especially lots of random and story type events that keep the game interesting and replayable. Combat has had a major upgrade from s4, and is now much more difficult and strategical, with far more usefull special abilities and need to plan ahead. One nice addition to combat that I particularly like are random events, for instance you might find the enemy attacking you at long range and need to spend action points closing the distance, or be affected by a nasty computer virus. You might wind up fighting in an asteroid field where both you and the enemy take damage, or On the other hand, you could end up cracking your opponent's shield frequency and making your own missiles super effective. Each planet now has a story sequence that you can engage in, which makes each planet a distinct place to visit. Traders can now own factories and store houses, pirates can create their own empire, and as with s3, you can even marry a governer if you are female or his daughter if you are male. There are also many dsmaller changes, for instance now crew combat talking to other ships over the radio or spending time in the bar can give you information about the system, and bounty hunters can destroy pirate hideouts. All in all it's a massive upgrade and I'd highly recommend it to anyone. As far as screen readers go, from what I know, Window eyes works as well as Hal, and Jaws will also work without trouble once you set some configuration options, (something to do with graphics, but not being a jaws user i'm not sure). The one problematic one is nvda, sinse it just doesn't have quite as complete a virtual curser as yet. some people have managed to play smugglers with it, but I believe it takes a lot of tinkering.

Re: [Audyssey] smugglers 5 help
It works well I use supernova and it works. Unfortunately smuglers 1 and maybe 2 only work in nvda, the rest of the series won't work with nvda at all. And worse unless I am doing something horrid I have not been able to progress far in any game really. In s1 I can't leave base. or trade properly just view info. in s5 and s4 I can sometimes find artifacts, pods and treasure but really can't precess. If I click on a planet its like i don't change things and hmmm not sure what I am doing.

Re: [Audyssey] smugglers 5 help
Well sean, s2 is unplayable because the images for ship equipment are not labled. s1 i haven't fully tried yet though I probably should, and s3 is quite accessible. with s4 and s5 however it sounds as if your not activating blind compatibility mode in the options when you start the game. You need to do this each and very time you start, it will not remember the setting from game to game. After this, options for docking with planets and traveling to locations appear labled. Also, note you can travel around very quickly by double clicking each planet as opposed to single click. I suggest using the left double click at curse position, aka letter q. i would also advise hitting ctrl 1 when you start the game and activate virtual focus (or dolphin curser as it is now), sinse then it will be locked into dolphin curser and not come out of it when you click on things. hth. all the best, Dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] smugglers 5 help
Well tecnically space in supernova's virtual curser does whatever the control requires, however sinse s5 doesn't have any recognizeable controls, it defaults to single left clicks which is why you need to use more specific commands as single clicking on planets and double clicking makes a difference, though for most of the rest of the game space works fine, or alternatively you can just hit space to click a planet and then go down and hit the travel to this location button at the bottom (it'll be labled if compatibility mode is on). using delete to right click on things also is a good idea in many places in the game too. I don't really mind the game not saving settings, sinse turning it on only takes a second. It's mildly inconvenient, but not really anything to worry about. Beware the grue!

Hi Mike. the manual to the game can be found in it's program group. It's a pdf, but converts to text fine, however if you don't have adoby reader or want to go to the trouble of tangling with pdfs I can send you a converted text copy of it. the manual however is intended on how to play the game, not as a help guide. The guide I think your thinking of is one niels is in the process of writing. he's sent out a few beta versions of chapters, but nothing solid has immerged yet.

Hello david. I don't know what you mean by more accessible than the other smugglers games sinse all the smugglers games are pretty accessible anyway if you use your screen readers' virtual curser.
