Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Revenge beta 2 released!
Hi, It is a possibility, and I came up with this idea as well, but I haven't played enough to proove it. Sometimes it is hard to tell when something is either under you or just-past you. I'll play a little more tonight or so to check it. Oh by the way, is it true that the jump action can only happen when all landingsounds are stopped? I noticed this when jumping on a crackling ledge. Then the next jump waits until that crackling sound is done playing. I wouldn't call this a bug, I was just curious. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Monday, October 08, 2007 3:42 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Revenge beta 2 released! Hi Davy, In each time I died in the trailer I landed on a monster which killed me instantly. Are you certain this is not what is happening to you also? Allot of players get confused when they land on a monster, and are not clear what happened to them, but that is the result of landing on something you are not suppose to land on.

Quote 1. Is it true that jumping can still cause deaths if there're no other enemies besides skulls? No, not that I am aware of. Obviously if you land on a drop off, in a fire pit, or lava pit you will die. However, if you are just jumping around that won't kill you unless you directly land on a trap or monster. End quote Hmmm, I sometimes seem to die when jumping a bit too happy. I suppose the only reason could be these spikes? Quote 3. The manual is a bit messed up at section 9 (sorry, I haven't got the time to find the exact place). I've looked at the manual, and have read and reread section 9. I can't find anything wrong. You'll have to explain what you mean further when you do have the time. End quote Woops, I think I'm a bit tired or so...

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Revenge beta 2 released!
Hi Dark, Well, for testing purposes alone the game has to be run from anywhere as i most of the time run the game out of a testing directory. I rarely get to play the same or current version everyone else has even though I have it installed. As for atmospherics etc I will look into it though for the next few weeks I plan to get into mainly just finishing the levels, get the product key registration system in, and get it ready for release now that the engine is pretty much stable. The way I see it anything I missed, extra features fluff, atmospherics, can be added on in future upgrades,patches, etc after the game is released. Dark wrote: Hi Tom.

Hi Michael, No problem. Just remember looking at the manual first though is the main resource for getting these answers right away though. I've worked hhard on making the latest manual pretty much explain just about any question, and give every user the need to know nuts and bolts before playing. Now, that the manual is in html it is easier than ever to search since you can use the h key to jump to sections and subsections.

Okay, a few things about Monty: 1. Is it true that jumping can still cause deaths if there're no other enemies besides skulls? 2. What annoys me a little about Monty is that the keyboard cooperative level is such, that the program does also respond when it doesn't have the focus. I hope you know what I mean, since I don't know if managed code uses the same words for it. 3. The manual is a bit messed up at section 9 (sorry, I haven't got the time to find the exact place).

The reason for that is the keyboard is set to the background cooperative level. When I set it to foreground the game crashes.

Hi Dark, Quote Btw, I have a question, are you planning to have the background mood sfx or drum change in later levels? End quote That is something I certainly can do in the next release if you would like. It is a rather easy update to include into the game.

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Revenge beta 2 released!
Hi Phil, There will be no need to change the installation folder for Montezuma's Revenge for multiuser setup. Here is why. In beta 2 I did extensive updating and rewriting of how the game handles settings, saved games, etc to work correctly with multiuser acounts and Vista's User Account Control. Basically, the game now stores all game settings in the User's local registry hive and saved games will go in the user's local application data folder by default. So weather there is 1 or 500 user accounts on the system it will just do the right thing out of the box, and installing to c:\Program Files\USA Games is the only location the game needs to be installed to work correctly. Since the game is now Vista User Account compatible User Account Control will not block anything Montezuma's Revenge does in it's load and file save operations as is the case with many other accessible games which have not yet been updated to work this way.

Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Revenge beta 2 released!
Hi Dark, Montezuma's Revenge can be installed anywhere you like. The part in the manual that recommends installation in c:\Program Files\USA Games is a recommendation only. Not like some kind of absolute location that needs to be used for every install of the game. As I was mentioning to Phil in my previous post now that I have fixed how Montezuma's Revenge handles multiuser systems it is multiuser ready out of the box if a user needs it. If they don't the game will run normally regardless of the number of user accounts installed on the system. Dark wrote: Personally, I have a fun program files folder where I install all my games and things. this makes it handy to know what I've got, and only means typing in three letters on an installation. If the option comes up Tom, I'd prefer to keep Monti there if that's alright. Sinse I'm always, and absolutely the only user on my computer, all the user accounts business have ever done for me is cause horrible problems from time to time, though I can deffinately see how in some circumstances (Eg, sharing a computer with several other people), it might be handy to have.

Hi Michael, Yes, it does. There are alternative key strokes for laptops such as j and l keys to walk/run/jump. it's all documented in the games keyboard help and in the manual.
