Hi all, All of us know there are several ways to make an inanimate object accessible in a game for a blind gamer, but I am wondering which way is best. For example, in Shades of doom when you wish to find a door, datacard, security chip, etc you can locate the object by listening for a continuous beep. That's fine for Sci-fi games.

If I do eventually do one of those I'll have to be creative in identifying objects as most of them are inanimate objects like hyrogliphs, chains and levers to open secret passages, swinging ropes, weapon ammo, med kits, and so on.

I can't really represent them with sound, but I can use a object locator with a beep to pick them up, or I can use words to announce golden snake, golden mask, etc What are your thoughts on this? ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] Accessible methods for locating special items in games.
Hi Tom, Well I'd like an object locator sound that is easy to make out even when you're in the middle of a battle. I also like it when objects can be destroyed accidentally, for example by shooting them. Also a great idea would be if an enemy close to you could also try to pick up the object and use it against you. Imagine there's a blaster infront of you and you want to pick it up, but the enemy is faster than you, picks it up and tries to shoot you with this blaster then. I haven't seen that in any game yet, but I really like this idea.

Re: [Audyssey] Accessible methods for locating special items in games.
I think that the game, and it's environment, would determine the method. For example, in Raceway, why use speech to signify a turn when Jim Kitchen's echo off the wall approach would work and fit very well into the game without ruining the ambiance? The sounds in Monty work very well. No need for speech if a sound will do just fine while enhancing, rather than detracting from, the game and it's atmosphere. -- God loves everyone, but probably prefers fruits of the spirit over religious nuts! - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Thursday, July 19, 2007 2:54 PM Subject: [Audyssey] Accessible methods for locating special items in games.

Re: [Audyssey] Accessible methods for locating special items in games.
Would use a sound like in SOD, and also the identify key. So you get the sound until you pick up, and if want to know what the object is you hit a key and it says name of object.

I like the style in Monty and SOD the best for identifying objects. I think sounds make things very easy to pick out even if it does take some time and practice to learn.

Re: [Audyssey] Accessible methods for locating special items in games.
Hi trenton, The problem with using both words and sounds is it will add quite a bit of size to games that are already large. The Star Wars game is already around 150 MB, and I've already collected almost that much for Tomb Raider effects. Let's just say when either game, Star Wars or Tomb Raider, is available for the blind they are going to be huge downloads. As far as using either or it is possible, but allot more work. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] Accessible methods for locating special items in games.
Hi Andy, I do know what you mean. (Smile) Some things like ropes, chains, swords can be given loops that sound exactly like they are. They also fit into the background environment very well. Even old scrolls etc can be crumpling and shuffling paper which again is very destinctive and would fit in to the background very well. As for doors perhaps have a specific pannel beep like a control pannel in sci-fi games, and something like a rattling lock for midevil games.
