Re: [Audyssey] Trust or Distrust?
well its your choice. trusting users? hmmm you could lways have a version for home use and have licences for comercial. your choice though. Ofcause you will get users loading it on one or more system, for example I load some of my software on 3 systems at home and a couple others family members use in different locations for working on their systems I don't use them on friends systems but I probably have 5 systems with that software on and 1 which I use all the time and the rest which I use for updating only.

I am working on 2 products, however they won't be available anytime this year because I want to make sure they are fun, stable, ETC. and I want to sell them for an affordable price of course. My question is, should customers, which will be you, be trusted? It seems like a lot of work to add codes to unblock your software, when we all know one way or another, your program will be pirated. As far as I know, Apple, Level Star, Serotek, and maybe others, trust users to install their apps on the systems they say they will, thereby eliminating the hassel of codes that may or may NOT work during install. Microsoft, FS, ETC. as we all know don't trust their customers, making it difficult to reinstall a product, even when the malfunction wasn't our fault. My IRC client was based on that same principle, the future version will NOT be. I want customers to have the easiest experience. And I can accept the fact that life just isn't fair, and whether or NOT I place a restriction on how my soft ware is installed, there are smarter people and they'll figure it out one way or another. But in my opinion codes have NOT lessend piracy, so why include them? What's your take on this?

Re: [Audyssey] ryu ga kotoku: Kensan
well I don't have anyone to play this but full playthroughs and other things with you playing in it in some zip would rock. Don't have the cash. on that note it looks like at some point soon I'm gona be cutting back on broadband due to speed issues. I'll still be active but it does mean some stuff may have to go or get reduced. hopefully thats not much. At 06:12 p.m. 3/04/2010, you wrote: Man, I really am starting to love this series. Everyone up here in North America would know it as Yakuza, as would the people over in Europe. This game's a spinoff, and is based around the legendary Musashi Miyamoto. So, this game takes out fists, and switches the focuss to swords. I've always loved this series, for the main story and for the cinematics as well as the actin and sounds. Kensan is only available in Japan, but I would say it's worth importing if you have someone around to play with you. There's a great guide on gamefaqs that can get you through it. Here are two videos I converted and uploaded. http://www.sendspace.com/file/vqesee http://www.sendspace.com/file/egaouo The first video involves Musashi and a friend, Majima, waiting at a temple for an army. However, their commander, called Marume-san in the video, shws up and tells them that they killed an heir of the Tokugawa family. Since you didn't know, you're stunned. However, you ge told that the army serves that family, and since you killed the heir, Marume wants revenge and sees it as his duty to kil you both and Majima. So the fight in the video is between Musashi, Majima and the rest of the troops plus Marume. Keep in mind that this isn't technically a beat em up. This is an action rpg, and there's a lot of exploration aside from just killing and killing. But the action is a big part. Anyhow, after that fight, Musashi tries to flee but is blocked by a rival, Koujirou sasaki. Marume calls him kojiro-sama. Kojiro is an old rival of Musashi's, and recognizes him when Musashi puls two swords at once. Historically, Musashi is the founder of the two-sword style. The second fight is a battle tutorial on how to use the style in the game. That's where the second video starts. The second vide picks up where you left off. Musashi stabs a trooper in the chest, and him and Kojiro banter brefly. I don't know that much Japanese, I was lucky to pick up as much as I did in the first video. Anyhow, Kojirou ad Musashi duel and separate. Then they clash again. The second brake, Majima tries to protect Musashi but gets stabbed in the eye. Then they clash one more time. Musashi breaks away and tells Marue that the two of them will take his advice and survive. Then he grabs the injured Majima and leaps ff the cliff edge and rns off. That's pretty muc hthe two videos. I love the cinematics in this game... and the duel between Musashi and Kojiro sounds epic. Opinions are always welcome. Hope that was enough of a commentary to describe what's going on. And sorry about the typing... my laptop keyboard sucks. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

well I didn't care for zork myself dungeon and dunjin were my things I played. on that note is there any way to play agt files in windows like you play other files I have tads and frotz working hugo and glulx which I am happy using right now but agt and maybe a windows advint interpreter would make a cool addition for the stuff that uses it. unfortunately there are several dos games I know which I can't play but stil the majority is playable now. To be honest haiden, I never got on well with zork, but then again I personally prefer if games which have more background than just go into the dungeon and grab treasures and more than random puzles. In fact I must admit, some if puzles just irritate me for their total lack of logic. ah, so I was supposed to open the catch on the rusty door by blowing the whistle at the bird to scare it off, getting the egg from the nest, then droping the newspaper and twigs on the floor and using the magnifying glass to focus sunlight, then putting the dustbin lid ontop, dropping in the egg, frying it and using it to greace the rusty latch! how silly of me not to realize that perfectly rational change of logic! I must confess this is why I don't really play much If anymore, sinse it's too much trouble to try and filter the to me, interesting exploration and story based stuff from all the games based on absurd puzles which i then need to look at a walkthrough to guess.

Re: [Audyssey] How did you start?
Hmmm since people seem to be discussing this. I got into audio games by accident. in about 1993 I started mucking with dad's old disks and found things I could play. My first real text game was from a friend and it was called intergalactic battle. you could be be oryan klingon I think romulan and federation and andromidan I think not soure I think you could be cardation. anyway you could have set games against your oponants or the computer. the main screen was graphical but the system was controled with menus. After I got on the net I was on the old henrichsen site which is now dead and found various files called aud1.zip, etc. I was curious, because well I was thinking it was something to do. I downloaded the files and read them. as i went through each mag i followed the links and read the articles. up to then I had not even heard anything about interactive fiction. in fact I did not get the net till 1995. my first real audio game was sod alpha1 in 1996 I think. from 1995 till 2000 I used an old 386 system which had been mangled some what due to me dropping it off the desk. the thing is now dead for ever more but I played dos stuff till then. after that I made several attempts to play old stuff again. this year I have finally got round to bothering with interpreters for windows fully so we will see where this goes. Actually I suppose I should thank josh for asking for my archive of games in the first place because since switching to hard drive recordings I have not touched my cdr collection. I had to sort this out and again got interested.

Re: [Audyssey] Online games
there are games like core exiles but they are not exactly fast paced. I know there are flash games which are ok but I can't remember check www.audiogames.net they seem to be the main database for just about everything in the industry. even experimental stuff. Even if you don't submit anything if you are a dev the stuff is eventually assimilated into the collective. the people do a good job of keeping this updated.

Hi. all this talk about if Is getting me a litle nostalgic, so i thought a topic about how people got into audio games and such might be fun. For me, I'd always played what graffical games my eyesite could cope with, first on an atari 2600 (at age 3 and 4), then an amstrad cpc computer (similar to a comador 64), a comador amigar and finally a Snes (which i stil own). But in the mid 90's with the 32 bit 3D era, the number of games I could play dropped from about thirty percent, to almost none. Though I used a laptop for school work, and university, it never occurred to me I could do anything with it bar write. Yes, I had the DD manuals and used it to do some tabletop gaming in about 99-2000 before I went to uni, but I never actually thought of games. It wasn't until 2003, that I saw an artical in a braille publication mentioning tom lorimers' whitestick.co.uk site and accessible computer games. Despite a lot of net access shinanigans (hal version 5 and internet access was fairly new at that stage), I found toms' site, and played a number of online games like ashes of angels and legend of the green dragon. I do remember checking the offline games page, but A, the idea of a game with sound I found rather bizarre, and B, I was stil using a five year old laptop with windows 98. I did however play a lot of if. Things went on. I started on Sryth in late 2004, bought an xp desktop in mid 2005, then ran into Bryan peterson. When finding we both had defficient eyeballs and an interest in exploration games he directed me towards shades of doom (I stil remember sitting up all night playing it), and by degrees audiogames.net. Sinse this corresponded with me finishing my masters and for various confusing academic reasons having a lot of free time, i signed up to the audiogames.net forum in 2006, and spent the next few months trying almost the entire audiogames.net database, signing up to the audeasy list somewhere along the line. And the rest is history. Beware the Grue! Dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Tts is convenient, but I played using Hal's virtual focus for a long while (actually a couple of years before I started playing audio games), so I don't find this too much of a pest. in fact, i originally used windows frotz on my old laptop with windows 98, but found the speech not to work (I had no idea sapi even existed back then or that I had to install it), but found Hal quite sufficient. It's a shame tts wasn't updated to the latest win frotz, but I'm generally not sure how the tts developement is going, or even if developement is continuing at all. Btw, this really! takes me back.

Re: [Audyssey] Any interactive fiction fans out there?
hmmm agt is adventure gaming toolkit. in cosmoserve you are a programmer trying to make your living and you are also a plumber. Anyway you need to get this program to a client by 8 in the morning the next day. Firstly though you need to find your password. On finding said thing you log on only to find the system is hacked, a virus has taken over the net and will slowly eat your system into the ground. on top of that you need to find how to fix your program, you are hungry and if you don't get something done you will be quite broke by morning. hmmm did I mention you could go to jail to, probably die in some places, etc. in short you are rather a mess. not that you actually have much time to think about this, as you need to contend with a hacker and a sysop gone insanely nuts pluss well the virus you actually do face it. and well if you don't speak to a sertain someone before you get that sorted you die.

I must confess this is why I don't really play much If anymore, sinse it's too much trouble to try and filter the to me, interesting exploration and story based stuff from all the games based on absurd puzles which i then need to look at a walkthrough to guess.

Re: [Audyssey] Any interactive fiction fans out there?
hmmm there are several reasons I have not bothered. one being I don't have a working synth that works. 2. I have no external drive at least one that will run 720kb disks. 3. I don't have a working external synth and or serial ports. I know hal can handle command mode in windows some but I honestly havn't bothered with running my games that way. I use command mode in windows to get system functions that I need to run outside windows like agx creating and such. I'm not really that desperate I have most stuff running and I seriously don't want to run something that will try to directly access hardware meaning crashing and probably reformatting the system so windows boots. Hi Shaun, Have you tried a dos emulator like Dosbox, and if so what was the result? I mean the Windows command prompt is suppose to be backwards compatible, to a point, with older Dos applications, but the 16 byt apps do seam to have problems. There suppose to be work arounds though.

Re: [Audyssey] How did you start?
true. however I don't have space to have that synth on my desk at all nore a old style physicle system to run it on and since mastertouch and keysoft only run right on 386 systems its unlikely I could even run it all anyway. I'm not mangling my main box if I have to fiddle with dosbox to much. Hi Shaun, I don't know if you have anything like it in New Zeland but here in the U.S. there is a place called Batteries Plus. What they basically do is take devices and replace the rechargible batteries in them for you. I once took a Braille N' Speak into them and they swapped out the original batteries in it for new ones and it ran like a charm until it eventually died around 2003 or so. In fact, the batteries they put in were better than the original Blazie ones, because when I got the BNS originally in 96 it constantly liked saying battery low like the battery Blazie gave me was junk to begin with. Anyway, there are places around that can probably fix your Keynote SA for you. That was a pretty good foreign language synth, and I haven't seen one of those for ages. Last time I used one was when I was taking French in school. Now, I remember the Keynote better than i do the French. Lol!

Re: [Audyssey] The new game

First, the game takes on my computer about 2,4 GHZ with 4.00 GB of ram, about 30 seconds to load because ofa ll the massive sounds. second you need more memory than you used to need.

[Audyssey] bugs with battle boomer
Hi kevin. well bugs. I found several sound files in attacks and grunts folders for female and male. I deleted these because the system gave errors. the fight started. However i kept getting invalid sound errors and so i deleted the game. looks good from what I saw though. I have also looked at the platform jump not much to it so I also got rid of the game I can clock it in 5 seconds. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Battle boomer question
well I know loads that say how rubbishy uac is and always make it go away. I have used linux so its not strange to me placing stuff in my home dir but even so. At 03:47 p.m. 10/04/2010, you wrote: Hi Jim, Ahem...I wouldn't say just fine with all versions of Windows. Fact is your games do have some problems under Windows Vista and Windows 7 do to some design problems. For example, none of your programs are fully user account control compatible. Therefore in order to get them to operate correctly I and many others have to go in and disable that security feature which really isn't a good solution to the problem. Simply put saving settings to the applications home directory might have been fine for Windows 98 and Windows XP, but is a big no-no on newer Windows operating systems. And, yes, while it is true the Visual Basic 6 runtime is quite small it doesn't ship by default with Windows 7. It now is an extra component that needs to be installed where on XP it was included with the OS. Now, days if you wrote something in Visual Basic .NET, for example, it wouldn't necessarily need anything else because most .NET stuff now comes installed with Windows 7. That's just one advantage of using a more current language. However, Visual Basic 6 itself has a number of problems that probably don't matter to you personally but does for other software developers. Fact is most newer software developers, myself included, are trained to use object oriented programming concepts which are superior to procedural programming in most cases. Visual Basic 6'6 lack of advanced object oriented programming frankly sucks. Visual Basic .NET on the other hand has extremely good object oriented programming techniques. So, anyway, while I do respect your opinion I'm afraid i do have to disagree. visual Basic 6 is very old software, a very old language, and no new programmer should be trying to learn something that is out of date. Windows 7 is current, what will be eventually replacing XP eventually, and that is what we as software developers should be targeting. I guess I feel that way because from the day I stepped into a programming class room I was taught, which makes sense to me, to think of the future of the market and plan ahead for changes in the software industry.

Hi all. Ok guys I am back. Please bare with me while I hit the backlog of messages I was able to read stuff on monday so I was able to keep some stuff away. I have the latest entombed update installed but not yet run the game as of yet. I have got a new board which is not for gaming ofcause. However this does mean I have a board right now. I will try to get through as much of the backlog as I can. Entombed will be played at some point, but I need a clear day to do that and I probably won't have time for this till next week some time. If I get through some of the stuff tonight then cool. I have 10 hours of audio to get done and if I get that done I may be able to do other things.

Re: [Audyssey] problem with horse racing
I still use hal though mine is grosly out dated now. I have not seen any reason to switch though even though I could if i cared to have the guts its the same with win xp apart from the security aspects I will have to spend loads of cash to upgrade hal and jaws and with jaws looks I'd need to pay more to get vpc mode.

Re: [Audyssey] problem with horse racing
well eloquence is the blindness shipping product that goes in everything. win eyes, k1000, and even hal now though some like k1000 and gw did have dectalk synths. eloquence is ok for a synth but all the small issues it had in the past. Its also quite robotic and crappy, though as a fast responce synth its good for what it needs to be which is probably why its everywhere. At 07:13 a.m. 22/04/2010, you wrote: Hi, No, it is just simply the fact ever since shipping Eloquence with Jaws they automatically assume that is what all of their customers will use or want to use. Plus for them to purchase the Phonix Dectalk 5 SDK and then write a Jaws driver for it would cost them money, and they don't want to do it. So they suggested Eloquence instead. Which, like I said, totally missed my point I don't very much like Eloquence and want the speed and reliability of Dectalk. Window-Eyes on the other hand ships with the Dectalk software out of the box, and one very huge reason I switched over to them around the 4.0 days. I've always been a fan of the Dectalk products, and when Window Eyes made it the default synth I switched. I only keep Jaws around for odd jobs and things where Window-eyes support could be a little better. Otherwise I have no need of the shark. Smile.

Fast response time pluss a convincing British English accent. For Sapi stuff I do like realspeak daniel, but it's response time is far too slow for me to use it with Hal. This hasn't always been the case of course. Back in the earlier versions of orphius only the synthetic voices were available and hal sounded a lot like a dalek, which was one reason I tried out win vision and deck talk. Then, Orphius shipped with the more human voices Alan and Carol and I got to be a fan. The only slight irritation is that for some odd reason Dolphins' stopped shipping Hal with the more human orphius voices and now only ships it with the synthetic ones. When I asked they said most people used the synthetic ones, which I found rather odd. Luckily orphius' more human voices are offered as free downloads by Dolphin anyway. I have heard a rumour that the company who make orphius split from dolphin and are now bust, in fact I've been trying to find the latest version of orphius online and not having any luck at all.

I myself began using Dos screen readers in the early 90's and at the time the Dectalk PC and Dectalk Express hardware synths were the best around. They were the most human sounding you could get on the market, and I fell in love with the Dectalk line of products at that point. When Jaws 3.2 or 3.3 began shipping with Eloquence I totally dispised the synth from day one. Oh, I can use it, but I hate the voice with a passion. However, I've noticed those users who started with Jaws for Windows and Eloquence from the start say Eloquence is great and hate Dectalk. Their opinion is as much a mystery to me as I'm sure my opinion is to them. However, I think it boils down to the fact I started with Dectalk and liked it, and Eloquence never lived upto my expectations. Those who started with Eloquence have their own gripes and complaints about Dectalk. All I can say is different strokes for different folks. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] SAPI Games USB Headphones
why did you lose your sound. reinstall your sound drivers. you shouldn't lose your sound something is up. do you use a laptop or desktop. if you use that which has external speakers then unplug those and put your headphones in the internal jack and try again. ok. if its an hdd card and it suddenly happened check your uaa is up in system. there is a patch to fix things on softwarepatch.com if thats broken. if not check your card is working right then check your volume controls. unmute wave and master. check things are as they should be. NO reason why you should lose something unless something is up. Reformat and the problem will go away. Alqways fixes it. if you don't want to reformat then please previde more info. I recently lost my sound so am using a USB headphone. Is there something I can change so I can play the games that use SAPI voices?

Re: [Audyssey] games on netbook
well since we are talking about laptops I have had several. my t1850 with the keynot gold synth which lasted from 1993 till 2001 It got dropped, once had hard drives floppy drives keyboards 2 power modules and a mains plug. I used it as a main system for some time but it became a games box which unfortunately ended when it decided its drives would all die at once. my next was in 1996 it was a satelite 310cds. this lasted to about 2001 as a main box. running win95 and later 98se with its bios upgraded to version 8.0. this was the only system that ever had a bios upgrade at all or that needed upgrading. 2002-2004. I decide to go with a funding agency and on their recomendation got a raw deal with a nec versa. yes the 310 was still going strong but it was rather useless and slow. the worst system I ever had, had a mangled fan though unproven and required reformatting every week or so to keep it working. I used to spend half the time using it, a quarter of the time fixing it and the rest bashint it literally in frustration. it would break down in the most opertune circumstances like just before an exam. G. I finally did a bios update to fix it and the update didn't go so well. the main board died and I was happily able to replace the box. after that I got a toshiba again, a satelite a9. It was thankfully good and has lasted me till 2007 when its dvd drive burned out. as a resolt I can't recover the box. the screen is loose and floppy too. after that I got an old toshiba 4400 which was for linux on tech, which I used for what it was worth it was usefull. I had it for a year then got rid of it. The current system my tecra a9 has to its credit although trying to get me to reformat has not had me needing to although I have almost given up on it at times. its format process requires sight though and I am happy its gone ok for this long even with the abuse its got which is not to much though its keyboard was just replaced last month. Its probably gona last me till it burns its cpu. Ofcause not all the laptops are dead. my 4400 is now an email system for my mums friend or one of them. it does what it needs to do. my 310 was traded for a couple disks of mp3s and is happily making someone happy. my a10 satelite if I ever manage to replace the fan, cd drive and screen hinges will ride again though with its single core cpu there is probably not much point. my 1850 will work if I ever got the components, though I dropped it again while trying to fix it resulting in smoking batteries and broken casings so I think thats unlikely.

Re: [Audyssey] games on netbook
hmmm I don't think so the nec was a joke I think the fan was broken loads or something. the 1850, well it dropped then died after a good life. the rest, inexperience mostly, the satelite, got hard labour for its entire life and although it had its failiers it was not to bad. the other 2 the 310 and 4400 had their uses and forfilled them. this current one seems to like mostly unless I do something stupid which I have done only about 4 times and in all cases I have managed to salvage it. Desktop wise I seem to be having a good run with the latest 2 units we have though one is quite old. what did you do just out a intrest with the cofee how did it happen, i imagine you dropping an entire cup and all whilst distracted at least thats probably what I'd have happen. I don't carry drinks round the unit or eat. I am always amased how sighted people can use the mouse with one hand, eat, put down the bowl drink, put down the cup, then type without either spilling or forgetting where the heck they were.

Re: [Audyssey] games on netbook
well my main reason for the toshiba obsession if you will is 2 fold 1. the fact they don't break, unless they are mangled in some way. ok I admit the first one was dropped. the 3rd one had dead fans a dead headphone jack, a dead lid a dead modem at one stage and a dead dvd drive but thats about it. and it did not happen all at once. most of the issues came at its end life the other came at the beginning. This tecra has had its close calls but bar the keyboard and some stupid things to do with some recording software for a piece of semi broken hardware which I will not use anymore anyway its been ok. Every time it really breaks I almos go as far as calling someone to reformat but I usually fix it and then although bits don't work its like well its ok and I can do without most of this anyway. I like the fact the bios is accessable from the os though. even in the 1850 I could access it in dos as long as I had no 386 managers active. there was a brief period where in win9x time the manuals were not that accessible and before where I had no manual at all. But lately its all pdf which can be converted to text and its all ok. Support is mostly helpfull to and I havn't had any complaints. Now I wish toshiba made a desktop. I'd switch everyone over to that. Another thing I like about toshiba is its bios update, it will load the update disk say, then compair it with the bios currently loaded. In older units say the 1850 you had to boot to dos and run a program. with the newer units say the 310 and up you pushed a couple keys and it updated from a disk. lately you can only get the windows download but that does the same as the old versions. Also they do try to emulate the bios setup as closely to what appears in the os. firstly it was a program in dos then in win95-98 it was all a windows program now its a control panel. so I definately will stay with toshiba. They are also extremely quiet. At 01:07 p.m. 5/05/2010, you wrote: Hi, Yeah, I'm a fan of Toshiba myself.

My old uni laptop, a toshiba was bought in 2000, and I used it up until 2006, and until i got my desktop in 2005, it was pretty much used for several hours every day. In fact the only thing that went on it was the fan (my dad actually started using it recently just to do basic word processing, though he's sinse bought a newer model and my old machine has been consigned to the dustbin of history). the most extreme though is my brother's Toshiba. He had his original machine stolen during a burglary in 1997, containing all the work for his A-levels. Dolphin physically built him one within 10 days (this was in the days when you couldn't install a program like supernova without assistance, so it was better done in the shop), and sent it out. he stopped using it as a main work machine in 2005, and sinse bought a smaller netbook as a basic note taker. however, my mum is stil! using that machine, complete with it's install of windows 95 as a word processer now, and it stil! works! Admittedly, sinse my brother used consoles for his gaming, i don't believe it saw quite as much use as mine as it was basically used for word processing and net brousing, --- but stil it must be a record. As you might gather, we all like toshiba as a make. I did once use an acer, but found it ridiculously buggy and prone to overheat, even though it was scarcely six months old. The only issue with toshibas I've noticed is to be careful with the batteries, and remember to keep running them down, even when unnecessary. i bought two new batteries for my toshiba last year, and I try to run them down to nothing even when I've got a power point handy. Their stil taking full chaarge, which is good. Admittedly that's only about 200 minutes per battery, not like the battery life on some more modern machines, but having two of them helps a lot.

Re: [Audyssey] games on netbook
grin well the dropping was a misjudging it dropped on the carpet. its not the worst story I have heard, a friend dropped his on a concrete floor, ok I admit my toshiba got mangled but it was ok. this guy's compaq disintergrated it went into little bits. smsh. I never saw it but I'm glad that was not mine. Desktop wise the latest 2 are ok, the one I had before that had a good life and is now dead though it was a bad boy requiring reformats. strangely though it was slow xp fixed it, so it didn't care about win98. maybe it wanted another os? This record is broken with the first windows box which came from a bankrupt company. we can see why. things kept failing. Reformats and more reformats. etc. OFcause we had time then even my dad had time. It was rebuilt with bits and bobs. however thats all gone now. I struggled to replace the main dvd drive on the main pc last year because of time to rebuild it. the system needed a major hard drive and dust clearout and I decided to use a dvd module I was not using at the time. it all worked but that was a struggle. we also couldn't leave it down for to long as it was one of the main systems at the time.

I used it as a main system for some time but it became a games box which unfortunately ended when it decided its drives would all die at once. my next was in 1996 it was a satelite 310cds. this lasted to about 2001 as a main box. running win95 and later 98se with its bios upgraded to version 8.0. this was the only system that ever had a bios upgrade at all or that needed upgrading. 2002-2004. I decide to go with a funding agency and on their recomendation got a raw deal with a nec versa. yes the 310 was still going strong but it was rather useless and slow. the worst system I ever had, had a mangled fan though unproven and required reformatting every week or so to keep it working. I used to spend half the time using it, a quarter of the time fixing it and the rest bashint it literally in frustration. it would break down in the most opertune circumstances like just before an exam. G. I finally did a bios update to fix it and the update didn't go so well. the main board died and I was happily able to replace the box. after that I got a toshiba again, a satelite a9. It was thankfully good and has lasted me till 2007 when its dvd drive burned out. as a resolt I can't recover the box. the screen is loose and floppy too. after that I got an old toshiba 4400 which was for linux on tech, which I used for what it was worth it was usefull. I had it for a year then got rid of it. The current system my tecra a9 has to its credit although trying to get me to reformat has not had me needing to although I have almost given up on it at times. its format process requires sight though and I am happy its gone ok for this long even with the abuse its got which is not to much though its keyboard was just replaced last month. Its probably gona last me till it burns its cpu. Ofcause not all the laptops are dead. my 4400 is now an email system for my mums friend or one of them. it does what it needs to do. my 310 was traded for a couple disks of mp3s and is happily making someone happy. my a10 satelite if I ever manage to replace the fan, cd drive and screen hinges will ride again though with its single core cpu there is probably not much point. my 1850 will work if I ever got the components, though I dropped it again while trying to fix it resulting in smoking batteries and broken casings so I think thats unlikely. My nec is in hell and I hope it stays there. disturbingly though it was the cheapest system on one of the us sites I think cnet or something. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Kinda reminds me of KoL, but it's cool because you can hire followers, go on multi-part quests that involve clues as well as battling, etc. THough I don't know what you can do after you've done all the quests currently in the game. Despite the site saying it was last updated in 2008, there was just an April 2010 event so it's still actively being looked over. Also the classes are pretty cool with sets of items for specific classes and races, specific quests for races and things, quests unlock stuff, there are some quests that are generic so you can earn some side cash... I don't think there is any PVP anywhere in this game. I have heard nothing of it. Other people said this game was boring. Maybe, I just started playing and it doesn't seem bad, but someone suggested Time Hunter, at http://www.timehunter.com. I've heard of that game and I never got into it, so don't know.

Re: [Audyssey] Types of RPG Games
hmmm well I wouldn't be prepaired to pay for a text only game. though right now your system would be ahead of entombed there is the expantion creation program thats coming out at some point but right now you have the field. Ofcause with the currency I need to choose what I buy, and that means I really need to decide if I want it and if its more of the same. or if its easier to borrow it or play it somewhere else, etc which is sometimes what I do. Though I wouldn't buy a text game I'd happily play it. the game books at ffproject have the site control the dice roles and other things. I probably wouldn't pay for that. even now entombed demo is not my full life and sometimes that can even bore me. a old style text game would rock maybe with a few sfx for events, battles, etc. no music, maybe some generic ambience for things though not to much to override speech. heck I'd even accept a tads html game like this. At 04:58 p.m. 5/05/2010, you wrote: Hello gamers, As many of you might remember several months ago I began designing a gamebook style roll playing game called Legends of Etherea. When I originally drafted the plans for the game it was to be a text based gamebook adventure system very much in the spirit of Dungeons and Dragons using similar rules, classes, races, etc. While the game's story and map isn't yet complete it was going to have various towns, cities, forests, and dungeons to explore. However, over the past couple of months I am growing concerned that this style of game isn't something that would do well financially. Especially, since the release of Entombed. Basically, what I am aiming at is over the last few years graphical roll playing games like Final Fantasy and Xenogears have become hugely successful titles all but making the old text based interactive fiction systems that I personally like seam like a joke to most mainstream gamers. Now, I'm beginning to see the same thing happening more or less to the accessible games market as well. It is like why bother playing text based roguelike games like Nethack or ADOM when you can start up Entombed and wander around a dungeon doing basically the same thing complete with Sapi support, sounds, and music. I can't help but feel that Entombed has just raised the expectations of any new and future roll playing games to new heights. Its like who would pay $35 for a text only roll playing game when you can purchase Entombed for $40 which comes complete with sounds, music, Sapi support, etc. It makes the idea of writing and selling text only roll playing games seam laughable. So I can't help but feel like the time for text based games of any kind have just gone the way of the dinosaur. Earlier tonight when I was going through my e-mail there was a post from Michael on the Heroes of Ardania thread. He asked if the game came complete with sounds and music. That really got me thinking about my own project. It seams that justabout everyone now expects sounds, music, and if the player is sighted, killer graphics, to make a game worth their time. Otherwise the game is considered to be inferior to the games with graphics and sounds. So the question is how many of you still actually like text based games like me, and how many would be willing to pay for such a game? understand I'm not necessarily against games like Entombed, I could create something like that, of course, but I also have a good idea how financially and emotionally exhausting such a title would be to me personally. It would take ten times longer and be ten times harder to create just because I'd have to purchase more sound packs, license music, program all the extra code for sound, speech, menus, whatever. So I don't know that I'm up for anything that complicated at the moment, but I could do it if it were more financially successful. So I'd like to hear your thoughts. What do you expect, like, etc in a roll playing game for the computer?

Re: [Audyssey] games on netbook
thats another reason I like toshiba. it seems ot be the only laptop with a numeric pad on a function key. this means almost every key is in reach. this is good for everything ofcause bar gaming, in fact the board is easy to wreck as I found out. so gaming with an external board deffinately. At least with this latest system its got a realtech hd. Said hd seems to have input and output which means I can run mic or stereo mix only which is sucky if I want to review a game or talk over a game with my voice. In fact I have no idea why they went to budjet cards. Ok I semi take that back. before realtech they had soundmax which although crappy did work nicely. before that it was yamaha and all those rocked. they were decent xg and fm cards. Sadly that doesn't happen. The speakers like to crackle I suspected card drivers but at the max driver recomended for the system by toshiba I found it was at least 3 years old. worse still, the new driver made the crackling more pronounced and made the system loopy. I downgraded and then it worked again as it should have. apart from that its quite a nice thing to have this model. At 05:11 p.m. 5/05/2010, you wrote: Hi, Oh, no big loss.

[Audyssey] shutdown for preemptive maintainance
Hi all. this is a cross posted message. if you are on a list other than ones I have posteed to pass it on. this message is to all devs and those I test with including pkb group. due to a few gripes, 2 dotnet issues which I got into and which are disrupting things, and the fact that I have had other issues for the last 5 years of running this system I will be shutting down the system for a week of system rebuilding. Obviously I won't be online for that week though I will try to get up to speed as quick as I can. For all the nosy parkers that will ask me what I have done and where I have gone to. I have had the system for 6 years aprox now and mostly have not had any real issue. however sapi issues though fixed, dotnet ones due to me fiddling with setup programs that seem to be bungish and a couple of stupid attempts on that end errors with old and new recording software, and general cleaning, I have decided to go through the rather long and visual process of reformatting, selectively installing and doing a reconfig of my system. for those that are on or are reading my casts on technology.jaredrimer.net I will be making several podcasts as I recover with tips and such. These casts will be uploaded as soon as I am online. as long as I have no real issue that is, I should be ready to rock within a few days. ofcause things can happen but if you are really nosy I will post something within a week. Its probably gona take less time but I'll have a backlog of stuff which I must clear to get sorted. if all things go well I will be up within 3-4 days but I won't be online till that week has passed. I have backed up all critical files today including my dropbox archive. for those that want to contact me unless urgent contact me next week. if you must contact via mail I will get at your stuff as soon as I can. if you know how then directly you can access me with the propper info but that probably does not apply with anyone on the lists. later --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Where have all the developers gone?
well at one stage I thought of buying it. in fact at one stage I managed to get the ability to run the full version on another system. I never got the navigation off. it was like run and die so I never really got it working for me. though I have never bothered about the latest gma title to. At 05:49 a.m. 24/05/2010, you wrote: Hi Dark, Everyone I know has problems with Monkey Business because of the poor navigation aids. I don't exactly have an easy time of it either, but have learned enough of it to get around after some painful trial and error. Thing is Monkey Business is a poor example of an accessible FPS type game. Something like Shades of Doom is a more accessible example of a really good FPS type game, and in fact my Genesis Engine will have many of the same navigation aids as Shades of Doom and Sarah as that seams to be what works for most people. Only mine will have a 3d aspect to it rather than a 2d aspect. One thing I have learned from Monkey Business is always give a customer a demo version to try before they buy. I think if I would have played a demo of it before hand I would not have purchased it either. However, I haven't regretted the purchase just felt it could have been done a whole lot better.

In cases like Dan Z games, the products are released not as freeware, but abandonware, ie, the company no longer supports them. There will be no efforts made to make them compatible, and should they cause chickens to fly out of your harddrive of your computer to turn into a giant mushroom, the company aren't responsable, what you've been smoking would probably be responssable in that case ;D.

Re: [Audyssey] Future of Audio Games
hmmm any way we can get sound voyager is it any good. At 07:01 a.m. 24/05/2010, you wrote: Hi, That's true. However, to Nintendo's credit they did put out a few experimental games for the blind, the Sound Voyager games, but they didn't sell well. For one reason they dummed it down , and didn't try it with one of their major game titles like Donkey Kong, Super Mario, or something like that. Once again we are victems of what sighted people think we could play rather than what we really want or could play if only it was made accessible. It was part poor marketing strategy as well as games that weren't that great to begin with. However, sadly companies like Nintendo can take the results of a failed attempt like that and state that games for the blind don't do well. in part they would be right, but they won't look further into why that product failed.

When we look at games to day, how far technology has come, it is easy to dismiss what a huge impact a game like Packman had on modern day video games. How that one single game changed the way we saw vidio gaming in the early 1980's. For one thing in the late 1970's and early 1980's the concept of home computers were in their infancy and if you had a 1 MHZ processor and 180 KB of ram you were doing great. As a result Atari's first home console, the Atari 2600, was a true marvel of its day, but the graphics technology was terrible. All of the early games for the console such as Combat, Pong, Demon Attack, Atlantice, Cosmic Ark, etc were all in black and white. Even the very shape of the tanks, demons, spaceships, etc were very crudely drawn. The graphics technology was that bad. However, Packman would soon change all that in a hurry. By 1980 though Activision, Atari, Namco, and other third-party game developers began to launch a new wave of arcade games with color graphics. One of these new games, soon to become an instant hit, was Packman. Unlike previous games for the Atari it featured 16 color graphics, much more detailed graphics, and an extremely adictive game as well. the game was simple where you used the joystick to move a little yellow ball around, that had eyes and a big mouth on it, eating dots. Little ghosts would chase you around and if you had a power pill you could scare the ghosts off or eat them. Before you knew it Packman was the latest craze. There were songs like Packman Feavor on the radio. There were Saturday morning cartoons about Packman. There were Packman comic books. There were Packman toys in the toy stores. If you went to Pizza Hut to order a pizza I remember they had a table top version of Packman you could sit down at and play until your pizza arrived. Packman was everywhere you looked. As for me personally I had a huge amount of Packman stuff of my own.I had a Packman ball plus a few little rubber Packman figures that are probably worth a king's randsome now. My bed sheets were Packman sheets. My very first video game was Packman. It was Packman feavor in deed. Although, I grew up and Packman is something from my early childhood I still hold a place in my heart for the little yellow guy. Although, I'd say my fondmess for the game has more to do with simple nostalgia rather than it being a novelty these days. However, thing is when my son was a baby I saw these hand held games by Activision, and one of them had Packman on it. I purchased it for my son, Sean, who absolutely loves the game now. Packman is now a family favorite just by being passed down from father to son. It really is a good, clean, and fun game for children. It is the kind of simple but fun game everyone can enjoy no matter how old you are. So when Phil put out Packman Talks I think it was a good decision on his part. I know there are plenty of blind gamers who may have lived through that era, but wasn't able to be a part of the fun and experience the game first hand. For those gamers Packman Talks is a chanse to do what they should have been able to do 30 years ago. For me it is a chanse to revisit an old friend called Packman after I'm all grown up now. Smile.

Re: [Audyssey] trials guide
I am also interested. unfortunately I have not the cash to afford console of any kind but good quality recordings will do for a bit. At 08:37 a.m. 25/05/2010, you wrote: Hi Yohandy. I for one am very interested in this and other console info. I agree with you that this type of thing is a good thing for us to get into and it's a shame that more of us don't. Granted the ps3's are a lot of money to lay out I just got mine fairly recently. Did you get my email off-list? If not I will send it again. I am currently working on ssfiv myself, working on learning the combos and such. Making limited progress but it is really really fun. Have you written out or memorized the character grid and menus yet? If so I would be interested in that info as well. I have the main menu pretty much down but my info is sketchy once I get into the character grid and the other menus. Thanks.

I did all of regular sfiv's trials a while back, and am now working on super so if anyone wishes to discuss them or has/wants tips on any of them let me know! more people should definitely try them in my opinion. they range from real easy to extremely frustrating to the point they're almost impossible to pull off, but this is definitely part of the challenge, and I've always enjoyed a challenge! if anyone wants to try these I recommend you start with T-Hawk's trials. I finished them rather quickly and they're definitely the easiest in the game. also for people doing these I also recommend you keep checklists of which trials you've left to complete. it's possible to skip around this time so you'll end up forgetting what you still need unless you do this.

So if you have the original SFiv instead of super, it's okay... you still have a guide at your disposal. Just look on gamefaqs under the faqs section for each game under indepth. Just a tip for anyone who wants to try these out.

hmmm the games on vipgameszone.com are good there is crazy tenis which is free and there is another tenis which is around there to. there is the table tenis by ken which is in the ken2 zip file but table tenis is not actual tenis. crazy tenis is a arcade game really and super tenis you need to pay to get online mode but its only 17 bucks.

hmph. wander where you can get all that stuff from all the game related songs. wander if a disk exists with all the old game songs on it. sadly aparently most real soundtracks for games are in japan you can almost never get soundtracks of games here though my frind picked up the one for mist 4 revelations from the shops for 30 bucks last year.
