Re: [Audyssey] Adrift Text Adventure Creator...
I eventually figured that part out with trial and error. The thing I'm having trouble with now is that I'd like for one of the quests in my game to be for the player to clear a hoard of giant rats out of the cellar of the first inn in exchange for a reward. But I'm not certain how I'd go about working that in. I know that tocreate monsters you do it in the character creator, but yyou put Unknown for the gender. The problem is that if wanted to have, say, twenty-five rats for the player to kill, I'd need a way to set it so that they don't all show up at once. I'm also having trouble with setting up character and enemy stats. I don't want either to be too strong for the other, so I'm not sure what a good setting would be. I'm also not clear on the stamina thing.I tested my adventure thus far, but when I type Status into the box to view my character's stats, instead of numbers for stamina i got a bunch of letters. This of course made no sense. Then I'm also playing an adventure that someone else wrote and it's really confusing. It's called The Demon Hunter, and I'm thoroughly stumped. - Original Message - From: "Raul A.

Re: [Audyssey] Adrift Text Adventure Creator...
Hello Rachel. Let me give you an example of a good conversation. Let's say you have three characters. Ben, Cathy, and Stacey. Ben has a computer and you found it in his room but you are asked for the password to use it. Of course you don't know the password but you need to find it out. Somewhere else in the house you find a piece of scrap paper in a box of Ben's and all it says on it is the word, "mom". You figure this is it, this is the password and you go type it in. Wrongo!, the word mom is not the password. Now, let's say you start asking characters around about ben. So, you find Cathy in a room and you type ask cathy about ben, she replies. "Ben is a nice guy, he's really close to his mom." OK, no help there. Now you find Stacey and when you ask stacey about ben you get the answer, "Ben is great, his mother Wendy is really nice too." What would you try for a password now? To make this work you would edit the character Stacey and in the subject edit box just type a single word, that word is "ben" so you would type ask stacey about ben. In the answer edit box you would put in what Stacey says above. If you want the same answer for multiple subjects separate the words with comas. For example. One thing which I do in my games. If I have a character Stacey and you want to know more about her you would ask stacey about stacey. To me that sounds a little cheesy so in the ask edit box I put the words stacey,herself. This way you get the same response whether you type: ask stacey about stacey or ask stacey about herself This is a little better English imho so sounds better. You can also make the response be different based on a task which might have happened. For example. Let's say that Stacey is mad at Cathy because she thinks Cathy stole her wallet. So, in the first answer edit box of the subject Cathy you would put something like, "I don't like her much, I think she stole my wallet." You then have a task which you would type to Stacey after finding the wallet of course like: tell stacey about wallet. In this case let's say you found the wallet under Stacey's own bed. Back in the subject line there is but if after task combo box. here you would choose the task tell Stacey about wallet. tab again and you are in a new edit box. This is the response to asking Stacey about Cathy but after you told Stacey about the Wallet. The answer here might be, "I feel bad for thinking Cathy stole my wallet, she really is a nice person." So, this way you get two different responses depending on if a certain task has been completed. Hope this helps. * Rachel D Keyte <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [061011 19:02]: > ah wow, sounds good! :) > with the conversations, when you are typing in a subject, is that > like a question the player would ask to the character, and then the > next feild is what the character would reply with? > Cheers! -- Then said he unto him, Because thou hast not obeyed the voice of the LORD, behold, as soon as thou art departed from me, a lion shall slay thee.

Actually no. The reply with field is what the character would say in response to the subject. So the subject might be favor, so the player would type Ask insert character about favor, and the character would reply with whatever you typed into the reply box. For instance Elynthia, the first innkeeper in my game, will have a favor for you to clear the rats out of the cellar, in exchange for which she'll give yo some stuff to help you. So you'd type Ask Elynthia about favor and she'd tell you what she wanted from you. - Original Message - From: "Rachel D Keyte" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2006 7:02 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Adrift Text Adventure Creator... > ah wow, sounds good! :) > with the conversations, when you are typing in a subject, is that > like a question the player would ask to the character, and then the > next feild is what the character would reply with? > Cheers! > At 10:51 AM 12/10/2006, you wrote: > >>Right now I'm working on an RPG type game called Onyx's Curse.

Re: [Audyssey] Adrift Text Adventure Creator...
Right now I'm working on an RPG type game called Onyx's Curse. You play as Ehlana, an Elven warrior trying to rid the realm of a dragon who's been demanding tribute from the people for over twenty years. I've got part of the first town created and I've at least got the groundwork laid for a few other towns, but right now I'm just working on ironing out all the tasks and things. I find that when you're traveling withi a town, it makes more sense to make that part task driven. Si instead of typing North to go to a particular shop, I'd create a task that says enter insert shop name here. So for example when you start the game in the village of Anoth you'd type Enter Traveler's Rest and you'd enter the inn. Then you could either talk to people in the common room, go down to the cellar (assuming you get the key), or head upstairs for a long-awaited nap to restore all your stamina. - Original Message - From: "Rachel D Keyte" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2006 5:13 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Adrift Text Adventure Creator... > Oh, thanks heaps for that Brian, > it will definitely save my frustrations. > Cheers! > At 08:52 AM 12/10/2006, you wrote: > >>Actually, if you press Alt to go to the menu bar, then W to go to the >>Window >>menu, you can select which pane you want.

Re: [Audyssey] Adrift Text Adventure Creator...
Actually, if you press Alt to go to the menu bar, then W to go to the Window menu, you can select which pane you want. If you click Rooms, you'll be in the Rooms menu which ppears as a list view which can be accessed with the normal PC cursor. Then just go to the room you want to edit and press Enter. That should save you a lot of time and frustration. The one that gets me is the Task system. Maybe it's just me but the manual confused me a bit on that. I know you can have a character say something different if a particular task is or is not completed, but I'm not sure how to create a task really. I select what room I want the game to show the description for as well as any additional messages, but it tells me I haven't selected any rooms for the task to complete in.

Re: [Audyssey] Adrift Text Adventure Creator...
oh, it's just fantastic! I consider myself somewhat computer iliterate and I thought, any game creation is going to be way over my head, but this is truly fabulous! I can get over how powerful it is! we can create games as complicated or simple as we can. I'm starting off simple course. :) I spent a while reading the very clear manual but was overwhelmed. there's definitely a lot to remember but I found that actually getting in there and doing my game is allowing me to learn a lot easier and faster. The only real annoying issue I've had is that after i have created lots of rooms or characters or whatever, if I want to go back and edit a room or something, I will route jaws to PC cursor so I can find it, then I will press right mouse button, go down to edit, and it will be one of the rooms but, not the one I intended to edit. but then I'll go to edit any other one and it will take me back to the same room.

It's the manual that I seem to be having problems with, not the program itself. I load the manual in Adobe Reader and select whatever section I want. I read the text like normal but then it just seems to cut off, like there wasn't enough room on the screen. My first thought was that it's something in my Adobe Reader. Right now I'm working on an adventure called Onyx's Curse, where you play the role of Ehlana, a warrioress who's been asked to help rid the kingdom of Menlari of a dragon who's been demanding tribute for over twenty years. BTW, are you supposed to be able to set the player's beginning stats? What about nemy stats? It ain't pretty when the pretty leaves you with no place to go. From: "Raul A.
