[Audyssey] youtube things

Hi.
I have no idea who makes it but with klango and youtube search 

if you type barnys  mind shepherds mind or freemans mind into youtube you will 
get anims of halflife 1 2 and 3.
if you type marines mind you will get the same of doom3.
YOu will hear what they think, etc.
I have not bothered yet to look who wrote these but I'd like to find him and 
shove him an email one day.
The guy that does this stuff or rather guys really do rock.
its the game being played, with someone speaking the chars mind of whatever 
char is being played.
So either the guy is editing things and  putting them up on the site or he is 
playing the game and hmm.
Well he must have clocked it.
issues not everything is complete and some stuff is bad quality but its good 
none the less.

beeps.

Then there's another button that, when pressed, counts from 1-500 very quickly.

If anyone can help I'll send the instructions so you can be baffled as well. 
Trying to understand these instructions and trying to learn VB the program

I have no access to dos anymore but if you could give me a link to the author

I can not however subscribe to any more groups.
I am on several gaming, test help and tech groups.
I had to unsub from music and book sharing groups as well as a chat group 
because I was getting about 1000 jmessages a week.
if I add all the testing sperts up I can get up to 300 a day so as  you can see

Further cutbacks may still be on the cards though not sure what those could be.

Hi All,
I just thought I'd put this out and see if anybody's still interested in this 
old game.  For those who haven't read backissues of Audyssey in a while, it's 
an extremely detailed simulation of tactical combat in the Star Trek universe 
which is almost completely accessible.
The game was originally written for Dos but has recently been revived by one 
of its original authors.  The Windows version isn't accessible as of yet, but 
the author plans to do that once it starts becoming more than just a straight 
conversion.  I absolutely love this game, its atmosphere is remarkable as is 
the level of detail and replay value.  Most conveniently, it is one of the 
games that I'm able to play since making the switch to Linux as my primary 
opperating system a little while back.
If anybody's interested in getting this up and running, there's a yahoo group 
which is quite well-frequented.  That group is beginstarshipcombat. To 
subscribe, you'll want to email beginstarshipcommbat-subscr...@yahoogroups.com.
The game itself can be found various places.  A quick Google for Begin: 
Tactical Starship Simulation will turn up one such, which also includes a 
nifty blow-by-blow walkthrough of a battle.
Enjoy,
Zack.

there are updates for windows today, also the directx is updated, xact xaudio

You must update first then reinstall directx, maybe there were updates for

Re: [Audyssey] programming

2010-02-14 Thread shaun everiss
its true you can't learn all programming from the net.
I have taken some basic courses at uni.
these covered basic conventions, they used pascal and javascript.
I also took a course on opperating systems and info systems linux the dos 
command line and windows.
Ok its basic but at least you get the idea.
any long course at tech on the next level up requires me to do something in 
graphical spreadsheeting and so I did not go any further on this line.
But at least I know when I look at some code I can roughly guess what is going 
on.
A lot of programmers copy code from samples or use code thats already created.
its easier, and if  module is already there maybe with a bit of tweaking then 
calling that is what you do and it works.
However this is getting beyond the scope of this list.

I am sure that a professional programmer has to look before he can program

That's just because you don't learn it in the standard programming books.
So my question to audiogame developrs:
Would it be possible for you to create some programming tutorials, with a
bit basic and also with audio related things?
Every developer can write the tutorial in  his preffered language.
Jim in VB, Thomas or Philip in C++ etc...
What do you think?

Best regards

Clauido

Re: [Audyssey] Virus found at l-works.net blog

2010-02-15 Thread shaun everiss
yeah sertain programs just don't like av scanners.
tic tac to does not like av scanners.
today I got a classification warning about the new flash update for 
varification.
then something about my new media player the player was justified but it does 
this to adobe 9.3 and several other things.
the only way to fix this is to exclude things.
dropbox and autoit are exclude as is adobe and klite.
if msse had an ignore condition like avg does then I'd turn all protection off.
I know its counter productive and all that but I'd prefur getting a virus than 
these false alarms.
ok so they don't occur freequently but just enough to get me in a bad mood.

Hi Yohandy,
It depends on the situation. Sometimes it flags programs and websites falsely. 
For example, Klango v1 was flagged, any programs using AutoIt tend to be 
flagged, DelUserLex gets flagged, etc. Under no circumstances will my 
antivirus allow me to run such programs, and therefore I have to disable it. 
How else can I find out whether the warning is inaccurate or not?

Damien.

Hi Liam and all,
After trying to access the l-works.net blog, my antivirus software, Avast, 
notifies me that there is a virus on it. After disabling it to make sure 
that one of the components of Wordpress wasn't being flagged falsely, I 
found to my horror that it began to click me onto many different websites. 
As expected, the virus found its way onto my system through temporary 
internet files.
The trojan horse in action is named by Avast as JS:Small-C [Trj], and is to 
be found at http://l-works.net/blog/\{gzip}
Thanks.

Damien.

Re: [Audyssey] Looking for the Sappy 5 voice Tom

2010-02-16 Thread shaun everiss
well thomas hal has also got locked voices so I suspect its more to do with 
scansoft  with licencing, ie if its locked to a product then its probably 
easier and cheaper for a company to get more voices rather than having sapi 
which means anyone can use it.
its all a licencing thing or at least I think it is.

true however I do know that yahoogroups does check to see if you are subscribed.
the spam message is not origional you can get stories for this on the net I 
just tried to search for such and there are a lot.
email addresses and names are not hard to obtain, in fact email addresses are 
quite public as well as names because you register everywhere, no biggy.
over that though, in the header you need to have things like the program you 
use for email, and extra stuff from various previders.
so unless you stripped stuff out just before it was sent, but thats almost 
impossible.

It's 39.99 usd (the site needs a litle redesigning).
Yes, this is at the higher end of the audio games price range, but
considdering that this is one of,  if not literally the most replayable
audio games out there, it's well worth it, and I can certainly recommend the
full 25 floors and range of jobs as distinctly worth seeing.

Btw, there are yet more bennifits planned if you buy the game as well even
in addition to the ones already there.

Eitherway, for anyone who hasn't played,  much less bought the game yet,
go to  http://www.blind-games.com/ and grab a full copy.

The demo will let you play 7 floors of the full 25 floor dungeon, and a fair
number of jobs and races,  with some unlockables, though of course more
such as Bard, Monk and barbarian are available if you perchice the full
version.

The game will also work with JAws, Window eyes, System access or sapi.

I hope everyone has as much fun with this one as i already have.

All the best,

I have always done puzzles as they come and when I have something needed to 
solve another part of a puzzle I go back and do that.
however I suspect everything is in the wrong order because the organ when I 
play it in the correct sequence does not do anything at all.

Re: [Audyssey] Early Survey Results

2010-02-26 Thread shaun everiss
well sapi is smaller and to get the game faster hmmm.
On the other hand sapi can break and you can't always interupt it in some cases.
The other thing is that I have good voices on here some will not.
However at the same time sapi breaking is a pain.
Once I had sapi do that after a failed voice install.
it required me hacking the registry and another computer to get sam working and 
then reinstalling everything.
Most probably would just have reformatted I would have  to bar my disk being  
one of those cds with loads of visuals.
still I wouldn't to have people having issue like that.
At 06:51 a.m. 27/02/2010, you wrote:
Hi Dark,
Yeah, I got a lot of really good info from this survey so far. I
wasn't aware that so many people actually liked direct Sapi support.
Although, I can understand the reasons people gave when they answered
the question which all comes down to user preferences and the ability
to change speech settings on the fly. It makes sense.
Only a small handful, about three or four people, answered they wanted
to use their screen reader instead. It is possible they are aware of
the bug with Jaws and DirectInput, and know that would have caused
conflicts and problems for those users. Plus not all screen readers
can be directly supported. With Jaws and Window-Eyes it is a simple
enough matter to wrap the JFW API or GW Speak library and send
information directly to the screen reader. I don't even know if a
developer can do that with Hal.  Then, screen readers ar TSR
applications that use up a lot of background resources. This isn't
quite the problem it use to be in times gone by, but still why keep it
active in memory if you can give those resources back to the system to
run the game faster, smoother, and better. So in the end Sapi really
probably is the better solution all around.
As for special game controllers I have to agree. Only a handful of
games like Topspeed actually have force feedback support, and there
are none that support Wii Motes and things like that yet. These kinds
of controllers would be awesome to use in accessible games, but since
they aren't well supported why buy them. So people don't have them
because they aren't supported. Some developers either don't know how
to support them or don't own them so don't want to support them.
Definitely a chicken and egg situation.

Cheers!

 Most interesting Tom.

 I would've thought more people would've gone for screen reader support,
 sinse though I personally would go for sapi second only to pre-recorded
 human speech, that's generally because Hal support isn't as forthcoming in
 games, nice to know this is an option.

 Also, as I said myself, I think the joystick force feedback business is
 rather a chicken and egg scenario. If games supported it more people would
 be likely to buy them, but people (or at least me), don't because games
 don't.

 this survey does show that that circle may be closing however, which is a
 good thing.

 i'M ALSO VERY PLEASED WITH THE GENRE RESULTS TOO, THOUGH BEING AS THE ONLY
 GENRE IN THE LIST you provided which doesn't appeal to me as much is
 sports,   there really I suppose I'm easy to please,  and even if
 it's not personally my thing I'll always give any new sports game a try just
 in case,  Railracer wouldn't have been my first choice game wise from a
 description, but I've deffinately enjoyed playing it.

Hi Dark,
Yeah, I got a lot of really good info from this survey so far. I
wasn't aware that so many people actually liked direct Sapi support.
Although, I can understand the reasons people gave when they answered
the question which all comes down to user preferences and the ability
to change speech settings on the fly. It makes sense.
Only a small handful, about three or four people, answered they wanted
to use their screen reader instead. It is possible they are aware of
the bug with Jaws and DirectInput, and know that would have caused
conflicts and problems for those users. Plus not all screen readers
can be directly supported. With Jaws and Window-Eyes it is a simple
enough matter to wrap the JFW API or GW Speak library and send
information directly to the screen reader. I don't even know if a
developer can do that with Hal.  Then, screen readers ar TSR
applications that use up a lot of background resources. This isn't
quite the problem it use to be in times gone by, but still why keep it
active in memory if you can give those resources back to the system to
run the game faster, smoother, and better. So in the end Sapi really
probably is the better solution all around.
As for special game controllers I have to agree. Only a handful of
games like Topspeed actually have force feedback support, and there
are none that support Wii Motes and things like that yet. These kinds
of controllers would be awesome to use in accessible games, but since
they aren't well supported why buy them. So people don't have them
because they aren't supported. Some developers either don't know how
to support them or don't own them so don't want to support them.
Definitely a chicken and egg situation.

Cheers!

Most interesting Tom.

I would've thought more people would've gone for screen reader support,
sinse though I personally would go for sapi second only to pre-recorded
human speech, that's generally because Hal support isn't as forthcoming in
games, nice to know this is an option.

Also, as I said myself, I think the joystick force feedback business is
rather a chicken and egg scenario. If games supported it more people would
be likely to buy them, but people (or at least me), don't because games
don't.

this survey does show that that circle may be closing however, which is a
good thing.

i'M ALSO VERY PLEASED WITH THE GENRE RESULTS TOO, THOUGH BEING AS THE ONLY
GENRE IN THE LIST you provided which doesn't appeal to me as much is
sports,   there really I suppose I'm easy to please,  and even if
it's not personally my thing I'll always give any new sports game a try just
in case,  Railracer wouldn't have been my first choice game wise from a
description, but I've deffinately enjoyed playing it.

Beware the grue!

Dark.

Hi Muhammed,
That definitely wasn't the purpose of the survey. The reason we asked
you your age is to find out the average age of our target market, and
what types of games apeal to that age group.
As far as game ratings goes I always try to create games with a family
friendly E-Rating. That way I'm not selling games that are adult
oriented to kids under 18 or creating games that might be very
offensive to some of our customers. That may change in the future, but
for now we try not to cross the line too far.
A case in point.My fellow co-moderator, Raul, wrote a text adventure
called Last Week Before the Wedding that was very sexually explicit. I
beta tested that game, and had a lot of fun playing it. However, I'm
an adult so nobody is going to think twice about a guy playing a game
where you try and have as many sexual encounters as you can with the
ladies in town, collect their panties, all before you get married. A
game like that is fine for an adult player, but isn't appropriate for
a child.

On 2/26/10, Muhammed Deniz muhamme...@googlemail.com wrote:
Hi,
You said the survay was between the ages 13 and 36, does that mean that I
can't play any of your games?. I never get scared of action games, and I
will play them.
Usually how ever, I hate the age  bits of certain films, and games. So I
will play the games, even if its for elder ages, I will still play them.
I'm not the type of people that take it seriously and get guns and what
ever, I just take them as fake.

Best of luck,

Hi Darren,
Yeah, I know. However, the sad thing is that the mainstream game
industry has come up with a decent game rating system E for Everyone,
T for Teen, M for Mature, etc and some parents don't even look at the
rating on the game. They just buy it not carring about what their
child is being exposed to.
For example, my wife likes watching all these reality TV shows like
Nanny 911 and the Super Nanny. I can remember a case in point where on
one show the Nanny asked the kid what he was playing and he showed
her. It turned out he was 7-years old and playing a game with a mature
rating. When the Nanny showed this kid's mother the game the mom was
clueless about the types of games her kids were playing, and was
surprised to find out she had been buying mature rated titles for her
kids that were ages 4 and 7. Definitely not too bright if you ask me.
Anyway, I gues I just don't want to feel responsible for exposing kids
to content that isn't more or less age appropriate. Yeah, I know it
really isn't my problem, and parent should be on the look out for what
content their kids are buying and downloading from the internet.
However, there are a lot that don't, and that bothers me. I don't like
to contribute to the problem if I can help it.
Plus there is the matter of image. I want USA Games to be a safe,
family oriented, business our customers can trust. If we got into
making adult oriented games then parents might not want their kids
browsing our web site and downloading our products. Although, the
majority of people who have filled out the survey are over the age of
18 so are target market is of the right age for that type of game.

Re: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake.

2010-02-27 Thread shaun everiss
no not the drake.
Firstly swords don't cut the drake you need a club.
its probably a good idea to have swords or something of whatever quality with 
int and other increases.
scroles work on him to.
The only actual combo without all the new power transfer items are if you are a 
ogar.
you need a couple of clubs at about 14 or less dammage 9-14.
one should be grannet and both need to be of some stone.
grate clubs are prefured  and skill for duelwield max, and large clubs at 
level3 or 4 and flurry max or at level3 or more.
I wouldn't worry to much with armour though a couple rosewood bucklers would 
work.
the ogar has quite tough hide but thats how I did him in.

I may try as a drewed or necro with maxed iceblast and a few int items.
maybe.

Hi everyone,

the Drake on level 7. I can't get passed him no matter how many times
I try. Basically, here is what I have to work with.

Cassandra --- A human female fighter/necromancer equipt with a long
sword and the best armour I could find for her.
Alair --- a half-elf mail healer/Druid. He is armed with a blackwood
staff and light armour/cloathing.
Dara --- a female half-elf fighter/ranger with bronze armour,
legendary long swords, duel wield at 5, flurry 5, and basically you
don't want to mess with her because your likely to loose a head, arm,
and basically get chopped up in the process.
Lupercus -- My wolf companion.
Undead skeleton orc fighter/mage. He is under Cassandra's control and
was raised from the dead to help out in the battle.
Summoned Animal --- any bat, wolf, or rat I can summon to the battle
ground to fight the Drake.

As you can see I've got what I thought was a good party. I can really
kick the crap out of the Drake, but not enough to actually slay the

Subject: [Audyssey] Need help fighting the Drake.

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone here can give me some advice on defeating
the Drake on level 7. I can't get passed him no matter how many times
I try. Basically, here is what I have to work with.

Cassandra --- A human female fighter/necromancer equipt with a long
sword and the best armour I could find for her.
Alair --- a half-elf mail healer/Druid. He is armed with a blackwood
staff and light armour/cloathing.
Dara --- a female half-elf fighter/ranger with bronze armour,
legendary long swords, duel wield at 5, flurry 5, and basically you
don't want to mess with her because your likely to loose a head, arm,
and basically get chopped up in the process.
Lupercus -- My wolf companion.
Undead skeleton orc fighter/mage. He is under Cassandra's control and
was raised from the dead to help out in the battle.
Summoned Animal --- any bat, wolf, or rat I can summon to the battle
ground to fight the Drake.

As you can see I've got what I thought was a good party. I can really
kick the crap out of the Drake, but not enough to actually slay the
dragon. When he hits me with a fire attack everyone takes heavy damage
and most of my party members usually wind up dead with several limbs
missing. In the last major fight Casssandra lost a leg, arm, and ended

yeah.
I havn't found all the ways yet.
I can do it eventually with a drewid if I get the right items with the extra 
points and int etc.
over that though I need the full version which I have not got right now.

I've done it with parties of monks, mages, druids, fighters, assassins, bards, 
rangers and necros,  even parties with fairies.

The only jobs I really haven't got to grips with yet are barbarian and paladin.

there's no need really for a specific job or race, provided you use scrolls 
strategically, remember rules about special attacks, and don't just try using 
the same move constantly!

(I actually find it helpful to use two characters for offense only, and one to 
pass out the scrolls and healing potions).

no not the drake.
Firstly swords don't cut the drake you need a club.
its probably a good idea to have swords or something of whatever quality with 
int and other increases.
scroles work on him to.
The only actual combo without all the new power transfer items are if you are 
a ogar.
you need a couple of clubs at about 14 or less dammage 9-14.
one should be grannet and both need to be of some stone.
grate clubs are prefured  and skill for duelwield max, and large clubs at 
level3 or 4 and flurry max or at level3 or more.
I wouldn't worry to much with armour though a couple rosewood bucklers would 
work.
the ogar has quite tough hide but thats how I did him in.

I may try as a drewed or necro with maxed iceblast and a few int items.
maybe.

Re: [Audyssey] Another Problem With Entombed

while playing after a combat I press g to grab items from the floor

certain cases such as the battle with the Goblin King I certainly know
his weapons and armour should be there in the room, let alone the
bodies, and it says there is nothing there. I'm pretty frustrated and
don't know what else to do. Is this a bug or do I need something
special to get my characters to pick up and find this stuff? I really
do not understand why the grab command isn't working.

Re: [Audyssey] Way finder access petition please sign

hmph.
well from what I have heard, its going to become part of vodaphone though 
nothing official.
I have also heard that ms is breaking windows mobile and that simbian is 
getting an ui upgrade to a visual system and that android may be what we use.
Judging on the nexus1 I doubt I'd spend cash on it so I guess we will all have

Hello friends, family, lists and all other contacts that I have managed to
find over this last hour.

I'm writing to you all to ask for your help.

As some of you know, some of you don't, but recently Vodafone has gone and
completely discontinued the way finder access gps solution that many blind
people use. For those of you that don't know what this is then let me
briefly explain. Wayfinder was developed as a gps solution for blind people
to use on their mobile phone. It has been developed to work with what ever
screen reader you are using on your phone whether it be Mobilespeak or Talks
so it isn't dependent on 1 specific bit of software to run. Wayfinder access
or as it is more commonly known as WFA, is an internet based gps solution.
It connects to a centralised server for any route calculation. This means
among other things, that any map updates that are available are all done at
the server end which means that you as the end user automatically have
free access to those maps when ever you connect. You aren't charged to
upgrade your maps because no maps are stored on the phone.  Unlike products
developed from companies such as
http://www.humanware.com/en-united_kingdom/home or http://www.gwmicro.com
this gps solution costs less than £300 to purchase where as the products as
shown in these web links cost well over £1000. which for your average person
is not a reasonable price.

As yet we do not know why Vodafone have officially discontinued wayfinder
access, all we know that it has been discontinued.

So we are asking for your help. Below is a link to an official protest
site that has been launched. The idea is to get as many signatures as
possible between now and the 15th of March and then we will send this off to
Vodafone to see what can be done. 

Please help us by signing the petition and spreading the word. Contact your
friends, family, work colleagues, anybody and everybody you can think of. 

Your assistants, time and effort taken with this matter is appreciated

Many thanks.

Vodafone... get blind pedestrians back on track!
Released in April 2007, Wayfinder Access was the first GPS application that
was accessible for blind and low vision users on their mobile phone. A
breakthrough! an affordable product that made blind persons more independent
by informing them about their surroundings and allowing them to walk any
route they wanted. Vodafone recently bought Wayfinder Systems and
discontinued Wayfinder Access. Most blind users don't have an alternative,
so they will lose access to all the freedom GPS navigation can offer them.
The few alternatives to Wayfinder Access are at least 3 times more expensive
and often don't run on a mobile phone, requiring the user to carry around
and maintain a lot of extra expensive equipment. In many countries, no
alternative for Wayfinder is available at all. As you will see,
discontinuing Wayfinder Access would put thousands of blind pedestrians off
track! Please help us make clear to Vodafone that they are heading the wrong
way and sign our petition! Please also pass on the link to this page to
other persons to ensure we get as many signatures as possible!

[Audyssey] core exiles questions

2010-03-04 Thread shaun everiss
Hi.
I have a couple questions on ce I'd like answered.
1.  how do I put say my extracted goods on the player market that are in 
storage?
or how do I put the stuff on the gbm there are a load of list boxes.
Today I have just recieved a message that again I ran out of cash in the bank 
to pay for storage.
and that brings me to the next question.
Because of various things, and life in general, computers being as they are 
etc, my focus has shifted some what.
Ok so the main reason I went on vacation was to wind down a bit from shooting 
things and finding where to sell my stuff etc during the holidays.
However after that I seem to be going through the motions.
that is every morning I log in and check game mail and I have no thought of 
actually doing anything.
So today I have decided I have to go.
its no use trying to play when I have no intention of doing so.
so how do you delete your game account, forum account etc.
I suppose I could wait for a month or so but I know if I don't do this now I'm 
just gona procrastinate some more and then its going to be  like another year 
or 2 and I'll never do anything bar check my mail.
Lets ace it.
I havn't really earnt enough cash to justify staying in the game.
I havn't really cought up in actual game things, never chatted never done to 
much with the guild, and never actually done much in the way of real progress.
heck I don't even have the cash to get everything I want or need, now combat 
would be a good thing if I could only get a few more special slots and energy 
packs but guess what every thing external needs special slots like buffs and 
since I have 2 and they are armour not that this does much, my weapon is ok but 
quite blaa.
And i seem to have lost the point somewhere because right now I am a zombie.
wake up, check bogs and podcasts check game mail.
delete game mail without even reading it lately anyway and log off.
its the same with my blog although I still write in there enough to justify 
staying  there.
The point of this message is enough is enough!!!
If I am not gona blimming do anything then I need to get rid of this thing so 
someone else can have a space.
I don't see me actually playing anymore in the future unless that is I somehow 
can sell my items in my extracter somehow which are in the comercial store, 
mine more and then somehow get another ship, maybe some extra slots, an 
expander, energy, more skill points, I have used my reset right now, and maybe 
what it takes to get back into shooting things which is where all th real cash 
is.
Without having to porn all my stuff off just to get enough to live in the 
gamiverse.
As you can see thats a long list and while i accept a bigger ship tank and some 
other things are not in my ligue right now the rest, well I think at minimum I 
need to get rid of my stuff in storage because its costing me cash.
I can either try to sell it which would be good if I knew how it all worked or 
give it away and sell my extracter.
That would get rid of the costs but its not gona have me play the game as such.
so any help would rock.
I don't care where this message goes.
I'll take anything I can get.
though at this point if I could just close the account and go away that would 
be fine.

Re: [Audyssey] has anyone tried the following USB device?

2010-03-04 Thread shaun everiss
laptops do have line in.
its usually combined with the mic jack or in most cases the headphone jack.
the only thing though that I suggest is that you get a splitter and plug a 
headphone or speaker or something into one of the ports of either an amp or 
something for one of the sources, maybe where its coming from or to the 
computer so at  least you can here what you are recording.
you also need some monitoring like in studio recorder because there is no real 
way to get the right volumes as these chips run quite hot audio wise and it 
depends.
on my amp I have to turn all my volumes to full to get things working but sr 
beeps all over the place and you need to adjust the internal volume, for best 
quality.
I have a sub with a preamp but yeah thats all you need.
as in way of usb things that would work but you would then have to switch your 
input device to that either for windows or the particular program this may 
mangle sound, and especially in laptops where unless you have sight assistance 
its almost impossible to reinstall say the sound drivers  because you eed to go 
to somewhere on the drive or a cd to find them well.
if you want to test this get something thats non critical.
if anything goes wrong, just reformat and the problem will go away.
I must say though i have not had much success with this connection for direct 
line in of tapes say.
another option would to get a digital recorder i have a soni ux60.
you do however get outside noise and other things but it may work better for 
you rather than fussing round with internal recording though that is much 
cleaner.
my recorder has a bit of hiss but its actually better than my first now dead 
recorder I got from the same company which is a bit scary  since the first 
recorder I got was  higher quality then the other one.

 Hello Tristan,
 That error can be cause by any number of broken dependency issues.

 1. Your .net Framework might be out of date.
 2. DirectX is out of date.
 3. The XNA Framework is out of date.
 4. Your Sapi 5 speech engine is broken.

 I'd check the status of each of these components and see if they are
 up to date, broken, etc.

Hi.

Ok what you need to do is the following:

1. send your goods using the commercial store transport facility from your
location to where the gbm is. You'll get a better price on the gbm and also
once you've emptied your goods from any extractors you should move them to
gbm system anyway as it will save you paying per location you only then pay
per product.

2. advertise your goods on the buy/sell forums. In the dropdown where it
shows you the active npc trade combat missions, look for buy sell forum.
Just hit b on that and you'll find it. Go into there and advertise your
products. Note it doesn't quite work properly with ie so use firefox for
this. Actually just use firefox permanently.

3. advertise on chat. That's a good way to get some funds too. 

4. sell on the gbm. This is how you do it:

A. move all goods to the gbm planet sg in descart. 
B. fly there.
C. dock at planet.
D. go to the npc there.
E. talk to him. Once you've done that it will take you to the gbm. The gbm
is organized in a table. Everything there is for sale you don't buy anything
there. It's all organized in alphabetical and price order. Alphabet first
then if there's a single item with multiple contracts it's then organized by
price. Fill in the correct field then click on sell. You have to do this
each time. A quick way to get back to your place on the table is to copy the
text of the product to the clipboard, then paced it into either your browser
or screen reader find option which ever you prefer to use and it will take
you back there.

Subject: Re: [Audyssey] has anyone tried the following USB device?


laptops do have line in.
its usually combined with the mic jack or in most cases the headphone jack.
the only thing though that I suggest is that you get a splitter and plug a 
headphone or speaker or something into one of the ports of either an amp or 
something for one of the sources, maybe where its coming from or to the 
computer so at  least you can here what you are recording.
you also need some monitoring like in studio recorder because there is no 
real way to get the right volumes as these chips run quite hot audio wise and 
it depends.
on my amp I have to turn all my volumes to full to get things working but sr 
beeps all over the place and you need to adjust the internal volume, for best 
quality.
I have a sub with a preamp but yeah thats all you need.
as in way of usb things that would work but you would then have to switch 
your input device to that either for windows or the particular program this 
may mangle sound, and especially in laptops where unless you have sight 
assistance its almost impossible to reinstall say the sound drivers because 
you eed to go to somewhere on the drive or a cd to find them well.
if you want to test this get something thats non critical.
if anything goes wrong, just reformat and the problem will go away.
I must say though i have not had much success with this connection for direct 
line in of tapes say.
another option would to get a digital recorder i have a soni ux60.
you do however get outside noise and other things but it may work better for 
you rather than fussing round with internal recording though that is much 
cleaner.
my recorder has a bit of hiss but its actually better than my first now dead 
recorder I got from the same company which is a bit scary  since the first 
recorder I got was  higher quality then the other one.

yeah.
there are no fighters so as long as I can destroy all the other ships ie 
battleships then I can shoot out the mines and icebergs and other things with 
my gun.
ofcause I can attract the enemy with a mine shot with a torp but if I do that I 
get a battleship and a destroyer.
if I then destroy the destroyer I get mostof the fleet on my tail.

If its possible to get into a situation where I can safely draw the destroyers

 I usually target the destroyers first. First, because they are fast

 overhead trying to blow you out of the water.

why don't you load klango on your usb flash drive that way you can carry it 
with you.
although the base package is about 20mb if you get the entire themes download 
including seperate things and its all in bits its about a gb all up.
so I'd load it first download and install extra stuff then get it going.
on that note I know it may be a little ot but if you copy your klango folder 
say from application data in your user settings, could you put it back or put 
it on another system or is it not worth it.
I don't mind because unless I need to reformat this won't happen and anyway I

Hi Peter,
Wen installing .Net applications you should install or update the .Net
Framework first before installing or upgrading anything else. The
exception is if you are running something like Windows 7 which already
has the latest updates to the .Net Framework and isn't a big issue
like it is on Windows XP or Vista where the framework needs to be
installed or upgraded before applying XNA and other updates.

installing any .Net based stuff. In such a case simply reinstall
DirectX again after installing or upgrading .Net to 3.5 or 4.0.

Re: [Audyssey] an update on my entombed problem

2010-03-05 Thread shaun everiss
ok
www.blind-games.com/redist.zip should have all the info in it not sure how up 
to date it is.
a lot of web installers
install dotnet
then the sql runtimes
vcredist xna and then directx
at least that should work.
HOwever since the stuff comes with the program and nothing has happend after 
the beta I suspect that some stuff is out of date, directx is sertainly and xna 
3.1 is what is used now in entombed
maybe jayson can update the redist package.
but still.
www.softwarepatch.com should have the right stuff if you don't find those run 
windowsupdate to get dotnet and all optionals  and criticals.
directx you will have to search for
luckily putting in download directx9c redist in google will usually give you 
the latest version

Hi Peter,
Wen installing .Net applications you should install or update the .Net
Framework first before installing or upgrading anything else. The
exception is if you are running something like Windows 7 which already
has the latest updates to the .Net Framework and isn't a big issue
like it is on Windows XP or Vista where the framework needs to be
installed or upgraded before applying XNA and other updates.

So now the problem could be that I incorrectly installed something. maybe in
the wrong order, so the question is what order should it be in?first xna
then .net? or vice versa? or what?

Re: [Audyssey] an update on my entombed problem

2010-03-05 Thread shaun everiss
hmmm 
that can't be done.
firstly uninstall the game.
uninstall mysql,xna vc packages 2008 and 05 and all xna instances.
get the latest updates from windows update critical then restart.
get  all the items in optional updates with dotnet on them.
restart.
run windowsupdate again and get all the critical updates if there are any to 
get.
now run the installer.
This should work.
There is no way to kill dx but then its probably something else.
you may need to clean your temp caches which I do on a regular basis history 
temp internet files, prefetch and temp folders.
Strangely enough when doing a cleanout if windows is being a pain I seem to 
find it benificial to delete all instances of rundll32.exe in prefetch and then 
recycle bin and restart.
The system seems to act like its got a new lease of life.
And this has solved some things.
especially if windows got cranky.
Used to just reformat but its supprising what happens when you clear your 
caches.
I'd also clear all documents from startup menu in taskbar and start settings on 
a regular basis.
I'd also get tweakui 2 or whatever the latest version is.
myself I still use tweakui 1.33 on winxp which has saved me loads of issues.
on my first xp system the caches got to full and the system crapped out loads 
of times.
eventualy ending up not loading at all and I had to reformat.
this went on for a month and then after being angry by chance I did a clearout 
of my cache manually and the issue went away for a while.
I then remembered tweakui which ofcause I had lost and got it and well I've 
never looked back.
its only 90k.
I have cleared most caches like the run cache and document cache at startup 
which was what got full.
and its what I put on all other systems I support.
I'd also do an sfc /scannow spyware and antivirus scan etc.
Lastly do a chkdsk on the main drive, and a defrag.
not that this is without risks defrag doesn't like my laptop, at least hal 
intercepts don't like it jaws doesn't care but I had to reload bits after the 
defrag.
This is a weird issue windows could need a reformat but I am sure its a 
component issue.

Re: [Audyssey] this blind thing

2010-03-07 Thread shaun everiss
Hi all

Not exactly the exact thing but along the same lines.
There was an old  car rally at  the local blind educational resource centre in 
new zealand.
It was a rotery thing anyway.
So you got in your old car and you drove the car.
Thats fine.
You however don't know where you are going.
There is a blind person sitting next to you with braille instructions.
It only happened once but it was quite cool
So for a change it was  the sighted person that had to listen to the blind man.
Not that I had it easy.
I had to make sure I did not read to fast or skip things.
I only had this happen once but it was a good thing.
Sadly this happened when I had no digital recorder.
If something like this happens again I'll dropbox it and then post it somewhere.

I've always said the following.
99 percent of the sighted world needs to do the following.
Put on a blindfold and have us take their carkeys away from them.
Now see how they use the remotes to their stereos, their TV sets, Their DVD 
players. Wonder if they could get around their own homes with the lights 
out? SMILES.
Its funny but it is sad.
Roughly 99 percent of the sighted just don't know us. If they don't work 
with someone or have a relative in their family with a disability, they 
don't know us and don't want to know us.
Now for the one percent that truely know us has to educate the 99 percent 
that don't.
I'll share a story with my fellow gamers.
My brother Matt and I have lived where were at for twenty years now.
our long not seen Aunt came down for a visit with her new loud mouth know it 
all of a husband. Matt and I are constantly going up and down stairs running 
arans and what have you for our mother.
Now we all have our safety clues throughout the house that the sighted don't 
pick up on.
We have a throw rug at the top of our stairs. I think this is the only clue 
that we have in the house.
The funny thing was this.
Our new Uncle saw us running up and down the stairs and what have you.
He stated, you sure do know your way around the house. Well, wouldn't you 
after living in the house for roughly ten years at that time?
Now come on now. If you need a cane or a dog in your own home after ten 
years, you're in serious trouble.
I know most of us were brought up knowing that the only stupid question is 
the one never asked or thought of asking since we've probably heard them all 
by now. We can usually tell if someone is asking a question to be mean 
towards us or would like to be educated to help someone that they might run 
into on the street.
This is why the supply and demand of almost anything for the blind is so 
expensive and in so low of supply. The sighted world just don't want us.
I was in a school for the blind for roughly two years back in the 70's. 
Luckily ma saw how depressed I was getting from being in a school with so 
many multi handicapt children.
It was no pinick and we all have our war stories from being in a regular 
school system.
This is because the sighted world doesn't want us in their world.
Just my two cents worth on this topic.

Another idea would be to list the sites where games for the blind can be

Ofcause one of my friends is a real adventure adict of the text and graphical

Re: [Audyssey] this blind thing

2010-03-07 Thread shaun everiss
I have not played for ages but I do it mainly to keep my strat skills in shape 
its not got really any replay value but I use it as a simple training tool 
because of its randum nature.
its got a simple stat engine and you need to do calculations in your head.
ie if the defence level in a char is lower than you say by 2-3 points then you 
may have a chance at him, if 1 or equal then even.
if 1 or 2 up maybe but any more and you have had it.
And ofcause there are monsters with high attack and low defence and the other 
way round.
the castle battle is a bit overkill, but the graveyard and village battles are 
the ones I am talking about especially graveyard.
I know for example that a sertain monster has a blade and he is a minor boss.
and sometimes I can waste him but sometimes its even and somethimes its real 
hard.
I also know that there is  a monster that if I look has armour to die for but 
to get it off him I need to ingage in a long battle and the guy takes loads of 
dammage.
One thing I like about lc is the fact that all the monsters in the centre 
branch you need to kill, these are the core monsters.
the rest you can if you want but you may miss things if you don't.
Then there are monsters like the unicorn that you actually don't get a level 
rec on.
in which case you need a reasonable high level.
firstly you need to get there without angering them then hope you are strong 
enough to kill it else you have half your health cut and your potions 
comfiscated.

well tom there are people on here, people like liam and raul and maybe others 
that play consoles.
I have tried with sight but if you asked me to verse each in a battle well 
match em I couldn't.
they are a class over me.

Hi Orin,
Yeah, its called a double standard. On one hand blind people are seen
as somehow super human if we can play a piano, play games, or anything
else a sighted person can do. On the other hand we are totally
helpless barely able to go to the bath room ourselves.  Instead of
placing us in the middle of those extremes we are seen with both awe
and pitty as we are both super human and helpless in the public eye.
I'm a musician myself, but I'm certainly no professional at it.
However, any time I play my guitar, keyboard, etc people instantly ask
why don't I play my guitar like Jeff Healie. Jeff Healie is an
exceptional blind guitarist, from Canida,  who has invented all of his
own chording, and plays the guitar in a way that is completely
unusual. It is cool, to be sure, but suddenly if one blind guy does it
that way suddenly all blind people have to play the guitar that way,
or so some sighted guitarists think. What they fail tosee Jeff Healie
intentionally rose to super star status because he wanted to do things
no one else tried before like drinking a cglass of water while playing
the lead guitar for the song I See the Light and crazy stuff like
that. that kind of showing off only adds to the super human legend
which isn't at all close to the truth.
Then, we have those few blind people who act like they are totally
helpless, and add to the blind people are helpless legend. I've seen
that happen more than once during my life time, and at those times I'd
like to crawl under a rock. Especially, when some fellow blind person
does something to draw negative attention to himself or herself by
rocking in public, picking their nose, mumbling outloud, or some other
socially unacceptable behavior.

Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Help with some ignorant ppl

2010-03-08 Thread shaun everiss
same here.
I do aggree that I may get extra things and if things for us blind are avalible 
I do ask for things.
I do  feel that we do take for granted that we are are entitled to things.
Probabley  because we are to some extent.
Ie the benifit, we get it because we are blind, all the equipment we get, we 
have to prove we need it but we get it because we can't necessarily afford it 
because we are blind.
All the extra classes skills for life tuition, mobility etc we get because we 
are blind though there are limits on things when you are older.
we get a discount on transport because we are blind.
We get loats of things because we are blind.
however its easy to forget that although we get thest things most of these are 
donationware.
So they are as fragile as a piece of cotton and don't take to much to break.
Recently in nz we had to fight to get exempt from jury service and again to 
keep a benifit if we get a job, in the uk and us thats got issues a fact which 
has been discussed on this list before.
also the government puts a lot into this sort of thing.
In the beginning I thought I was entitled to things but after reading loads on 
these and others benifits actually use a lot of a countries budjet.
I am sure the government would like nothing better than to cut them, because of 
the expence.
So I think we should see these things as a privilage rather than a right.
We get these things because we are blind but we keep getting these things in 
general because we can and the country is doing quite well.
I for example have not been in a poor country which is not new zealand 
australia, the us, the uk europe, etc.
and this thing is not perfect.
I am not even in my right mind right now, I still live at home.
So I imagion I won't feel to much issue for about another 20-30 years.
Never thought what I will do after my family goes kicking the bucket but its 
crossed my mind at least once.
No way I will ever afford what I have here, the laptop, the net at its rates, 
all the extras I have  right now.
THe benifit is not much really.
So its a mixed bag.
Because I am blind you get things and are entitled to them.
THe issue is keeping them, and for their future.
I wander how louis braille felt.
I read on that subject.
Back then blind people were helpless they didn't read.
They had no life.
In some places like holland they are giving to much and are suffering if the 
news I read somewhere has me reading.
And in some places like norway again according to the news disabled people are 
put in asilums because no one knows what to do they are all mental one place 
and you stay there for your entire life.
Its easy to have your own little world, I am still half in mine and still need 
to work on getting out.
So its not easy.

The ones I hate are the ones who feel that their blindness means they're 
entitled to things. I'm not an easy hater but i hate people like that with a 
passion. And the irony is that some of them don't even want to admit that 
they're blind, they just want discounts based on being blind.

well tom I can relate to this.
Its probably why people are encouraging braille devices over computers we start 
sounding like them.
I must say poking eyes is a habit I have tried to break.
I also resent some of my other sences at times.
if i feel something in my nose or eyes it seems more annoying than most.
Right now I am hearing cicadas outside.
I get a headake from these things the sighted I have round me including my 
parents don't think about it.
I don't want to think about it b but I can hear them just the same and I wish I 
didn't.
at night I can hear high pitched tones no one else can.
and ringing.
and although it does help me in some instances which I like I sometimes wish I 
could switch the volume down a bit.

Hi Darren,
Exactly. I don't know how many times I've been with a bunch of other
blind  class mates and one of them would draw public attention to all
of us by rocking, poking his/her eyes, picking their nose, or some
other socially unacceptable way of drawing attention. I really really
hate that kind of behavior from my own fellow blind peers as they draw
precisely the kind of negative attention I try to avoid. I like to fit
into the croud and not stand out like a sore thumb as much as is
possible.
However, I remember there was this one student, where I went to
school, who had a mental disability as well as being blind. I believe
he was mildly retarded. Whatever the case is he constantly was the one
the mainstream students based their opinions of blind people on. He'd
walk down the school hallway going, yah, yah, yah, yah, in a
monotone that was sure to bring attention to him. He pickd his nose,
picked wax out of his ears, rocked, poked his eyes, and generally was
the walking/talking worst example of a blind person you can get. Even
though this kid was mildly retarted, as i said before, other sighted
students and even some of the teachers acted as though I was mentally
disabled as well. I know it wasn't totally this kids fault having had
a mental disability, I don't think his parents tried to correct his
bad social behavior, but I resented the negative attention all the
same. It is that kind of negative example I think of that can really
hurt our cause to be seen as just another average Joe or Jane who
can't read print or see colors, but is otherwise normal.

Re: [Audyssey] Help with some ignorant ppl

well I also morn the retro gaming.
now my old dos box is dead I can't play most of these.
I have a friend that likes old music and that stuff from games i can play and I 
do play said stuff.

Hi Dark,
Yeah, I know. The retro gaming movement is certainly an interesting
aspect to PC gaming as it is directed towards old school gamers like
me who basically grew up with the Atari 2600, Colleco Vision,
Nintendo, Super NES, etc. Some of the Megaman games and Castlevania
games didn't have great graphics, but that was made up for in killer
game play and a decent enough story. I just don't see new games that
capture the gaming public the way those games did when they first hit
the market.
Back in 1996 when everyone was trying to cash in on the new Windows 95
PC market Edos Interactive released their first treasure hunting game
Tomb Raider. At the time it was a smashing success. I loved that game.
However, over the passed few years the series has steadily been going
down hill. Edos new Legends engine has extremely awesome graphics, as
seen in Tomb Raider Underworld, but the game content isn't the same
any more. In my opinion Edos took a very bad turn after the Last
Revelation when they killed Lara Croft off in the game universe, and
then tried to undo their mistake by saying she secretly escaped from
the trapped ruins, and locates Dr. Von Croy in Paris in number 6 where
she ends up framed with his murder. Plot wise the game took a dramatic
turn for the worst. They  officially killed Lara Croft in Last
Revelation, Chronicals was a series of short adventures that happened
pproceeding her death in Egypt, Angel of Darkness was more or less a
story to try and bring Lara back from the dead and having her hunt
downsome missing paintings, and Legends was basically about Lara's
search for what happened to her mother and father. Although the later
games did have some treasure hunting in them that really was no longer
the focus or aim of the games. It all got wrapped up in Lara's
personal story, and her eventual showdown with Natla in Underworld.
Someone who Lara had killed clear back in  the original Tomb Raider
game, or was suppose to have until the last two games were Natla ends
up resuming her roll as nemesis.
It is hard to put my finger on it, but Edos has clearly lost the magic
that made those games successful in the 1990's. The new games just
aren't the same or as good as they were. The sounds are better, the
graphics are better, but they games are actually flops. Oh, I like
them well enough, better than some stuff that is out there, but I'm
loosing interest in them myself. Unfortunately, I'm finding the same
problem throughout the gaming industry. Games seam to be anywhere from
bla to so so at best. For me there has never been another Tomb Raider,
Castlevania, double Dragon, whatever that just grabs my attention the
way those games did.  At least not from the mainstream market.
As far as accessible gaming goes Entombed has put a lot of fresh
content out there, and looks like it is a smashing success. Even I'm
hooked on it although I see where the game could be better. More
traps, several bug fixes, more adventures, etc and I think it would be
a very awesome game.

Cheers!

 well these days there are games for serious game players, and games for
 casual graphically obsessed people with no imagination,  generally the
 serious games enthusiasts hate the trend, and indeed that's a chief reason
 behind the retro gaming movement,  games these days are easier, more
 cinematic, more concentrated on gimics and less on gameplay than in the
 past, --- -such is the thinking anyway.

 Interestingly enough, i remember reading a topic on the Angband roguelike
 forums from someone who was sick of what they called cliched, unsystematics
 console rpgs, and much preferd roguelikes for that reason,  and from a
 sighted point of view, you don't really get more minimalist in terms of
 graffics than aski.

 There are of course stil games,  such as the Metroid prime, Final
 fantasy, Grandia or Mega man series (not counting battle network), which are
 very much aimed at the old school, serious game playing fraternity,  but
 now it's become a minority interest, rather than being the norm as it was in
 the past.

 Indeed I've heard that's why Final fantasy 7 is regarded as one of the best
 games of all times, it was cinematic enough to catch the eye of the generic
 kids, but interesting and deep enough in gameplay and plot to keep the die
 hard gamers happy.

 Btw, my brother, and various friends of mine are very much die hard gamers,
 hence my knolidge of the subject.

 Beware the Grue!

yeah not to mention the people in say school that think you should not do 
mainstream had go in the disabled units.

Hi Thomas,


Yes but you see that's where I think social integration falls down and it
fails so many people. It fails us because of the reason you've just
outlined, it also fails the person in question because they aren't gaining
anything by being in a mainstream environment. 

I think that mainstream is good when it works but for the retarded lot it
doesn't work far from it. I came from the specialist education system in
England which is fading out now. But the amount of people with mental
disabilities we had at these blind schools really did create a problem
because whether you like to admit it or not, if you are exposed to them 24
hours a day 7 days a week, you start to be affected by them. The rules and
regs of the school become set up in favour of the people with mental
disabilities and inhibit the natural ability for social and emotional
development in the rest of the population. Yes social integration fails big
time if you ask me.

Re: [Audyssey] Help with some ignorant ppl

2010-03-08 Thread shaun everiss
well on the matter of this I have a friend in the industry that says everything 
is shifting over from what I have been through to a more mainstream type 
simular to my uni days.
You had a central resource point, and you got services, readers, and other 
things from there.
All lecturers knew where to go, if they had something to convert they could 
convert it there.
If there was a problem the rc would get it and solve it.
So you were mainstream  and some  of the stuff you had to pay a little for.
But you got support if you wanted it, and it was in easy reach, usually a 
phonecall away.
Gone are the days of say a disabled place I did like the central point system 
myself.
no one asked questions if there was a problem they knew where to go.
Every so often you had a meating if they did need you for something.
mostly though a load of suff was done for you though you did get some imput.
the system was sertainly better than the school system and I wish I had that 
sort of system earlier on.

Hi Thomas,


Yes but you see that's where I think social integration falls down and it
fails so many people. It fails us because of the reason you've just
outlined, it also fails the person in question because they aren't gaining
anything by being in a mainstream environment. 

I think that mainstream is good when it works but for the retarded lot it
doesn't work far from it. I came from the specialist education system in
England which is fading out now. But the amount of people with mental
disabilities we had at these blind schools really did create a problem
because whether you like to admit it or not, if you are exposed to them 24
hours a day 7 days a week, you start to be affected by them. The rules and
regs of the school become set up in favour of the people with mental
disabilities and inhibit the natural ability for social and emotional
development in the rest of the population. Yes social integration fails big
time if you ask me.

Hi Darren,
Exactly. I don't know how many times I've been with a bunch of other blind
class mates and one of them would draw public attention to all of us by
rocking, poking his/her eyes, picking their nose, or some other socially
unacceptable way of drawing attention. I really really hate that kind of
behavior from my own fellow blind peers as they draw precisely the kind of
negative attention I try to avoid. I like to fit into the croud and not
stand out like a sore thumb as much as is possible. However, I remember
there was this one student, where I went to school, who had a mental
disability as well as being blind. I believe he was mildly retarded.
Whatever the case is he constantly was the one the mainstream students based
their opinions of blind people on. He'd walk down the school hallway going,
yah, yah, yah, yah, in a monotone that was sure to bring attention to him.
He pickd his nose, picked wax out of his ears, rocked, poked his eyes, and
generally was the walking/talking worst example of a blind person you can
get. Even though this kid was mildly retarted, as i said before, other
sighted students and even some of the teachers acted as though I was
mentally disabled as well. I know it wasn't totally this kids fault having
had a mental disability, I don't think his parents tried to correct his bad
social behavior, but I resented the negative attention all the same. It is
that kind of negative example I think of that can really hurt our cause to
be seen as just another average Joe or Jane who can't read print or see
colors, but is otherwise normal.

well taking a cane does net people know you are blind but its secondary though 
i have sometimes got to lazy to take it a thing I am trying to kerb.
ofcause weather you have a cane or not some don't care but not many at least.

Good grief! I spend four hours this morning reading (or at least having my 
research assistant read), a ream of stuff on the social theory of disability 
and intigration, for my phd,  which is intended to defign disability, then 
I get it on this list as well!


Aaaagh! ;D.

My own thought is that any discussion of these issues needs to recognize 
flexibility.

Yes, there are blind people i've met from the specialist education system 
who've now ended up in a total mess. Equally however, there are occasions (I 
experienced one myself as a teenager), where intigration doesn't work simply 
because of the nature of the environment in question.

Yet neither environment can be said to create the disaibility in the first 
place (as many theorists argue), the blindness is there and needs dealing with.

What I'm trying to  do in my phd is derive a theory of disability based on 
questions of quality of life, not related either to specific social or 
environmental factors, or tied to specific conditions which can then be named 
and pointed to.

Sinse it is based upon quality of life, any answer to intigration vs 
specialization has to be looked at on a case by case basis.

Yes, for a blind person of normal interlect, a sympathetic intigrated 
environment might work, however for someone of less than usual interlect,  
or indeed someone who requires huge amounts of independence training, maybe 
some degree of specialization would help.

On the appearing normal front, Again, there seem to be two things. Yes, the 
majority of people are bloody stupid about blindness. however wandering around 
bellowing at others for help or expecting assistance to always be there 
doesn't work either (an atitude I've encountered far too often among blind 
people and indeed people who work with blind people). Such things are an 
interaction and should be thought of as such.

I carry a kane, not to warn people I'm blind, but simply to make certain I 
don't fall down steps. On the other hand, I turn and look at people when i'm 
talking to them to make their communication and interaction with me easier, so 
that I can live with people on a more reasonable basis.

Btw, my special school was as vile as my main stream one, my teacher was! 
professor umbridge! so I'd say I've seen both sides of the education coin fail 
miserably.

Beware the grue!

Dark.

[Audyssey] rsgames monopoly

2010-03-12 Thread shaun everiss
was gona post this to the staff communication list but I thought I'd post this 
for user input.
What to do about the monopoly music.
A friend I have that does not want to join the lists because she has no time 
for actual high traffic things was playing monopoly from rsgames.
Said friend also likes card games so I have sent all the kitchensinc games and 
spoonbil games at her and winboard.
she doesn't play that much.
anyway I know we can't put a load of music in the game but.
Is there any way we can have the music turned off?
also is there a way maybe we can have winamp control or have the ability to 
play a number of musical things not just one and that we can put stuff in as we 
see fit from our own collections for playing on our systems.
Another idea I have is to have a background not music but some quiet ambient 
sound or something or as I said none at all.
Thanks a bunch

well standard music.
its a really basic rpg.
its random and has no real replay value you need to calculate in your head your 
level of defence and attack though.
Its a bit out ballanced at the end.
I'd still use it as a basic rpg trainer.
If you havn't bothered with rpgs or any strat games like time of conflict then 
this is the first game you need to play.
after that you need to do a few games on soundrts.
after that do the same on entombed.
and then you should be fairly well skilled I still like it just to say if I can 
still get round, its nothing special but its good if you really want to be 
manual about things or you don't want to use headphones.

This life requires that I play my piano at least 3 times a week to get me cash, 
walk about the same amount do my excercycle bike about the same as the rest, as

Would I  like to escape to the net?

 From Andrew Salmon for CNN
STORY HIGHLIGHTS

* Couple spent hours in online game where they raised a virtual child, 
 police say
* Meanwhile, they fed their real baby once a day, say police in South Korea
* The 3-month-old girl died of starvation, police say; couple arrested 
 last week
* Father says he's sorry: I wish ... she will live well in heaven forever

RELATED TOPICS

* South Korea
* Child Safety
* Online Gaming

Seoul, South Korea (CNN) -- Police have arrested a South Korean couple whose 
baby starved to death while they were raising a virtual child online, 
authorities said.

The couple fed their 3-month-old daughter once a day between marathon 
stretches in a local Internet cafe, where they were raising a virtual child in 
the fantasy role-playing game Prius Online, police told local reporters Friday.

Prius Online is a 3-D game in which players nurture an online companion,

Anima, a young girl with mysterious powers who grows and increases her skills 
as the game progresses.

Police have not identified the 41-year-old father and 25-year-old mother, who 
lived in Suwon, a suburb south of Seoul. But the father apologized, speaking 
to reporters.

I wish that she hadn't got sick and that she will live well in heaven 
forever. And as the father, I am sorry, he said.

The baby reportedly died five months ago.

South Korea has one of the world's fastest broadband networks. Seoul has

won international awards for e-governance. Online gaming teams are sponsored 
by major conglomerates and 24-hour, high-speed Internet cafes,

known as PC Bangs, dot every urban neighborhood.

Police said the couple had lost their jobs and used the game as an escape from 
reality, especially after the birth of their premature baby.

They instead played an online game in which they raised a virtual character 
so as to escape from reality, which led to the death of their real baby, 
Chung Jin-won, a police officer in Suwon, told Yonhap News Agency.

South Korea remains a very conservative society so people who fall outside 
the norm can come under severe stress and pressure, said Michael Breen, the 
Seoul-based author of The Koreans.

The Internet has provided such people with a paradise to escape to and simply 
get lost in.

Can we be a role model by the games we play?  Probably not, because we are not

Hi,
Well, it is a sad fact, but most of todays youth have completely
different values, roll models, and a completely different upbringing
than a generation ago. We all grow up trying to follow in the
footsteps of someone we greatly admire, and if that person is a
dirtbag we might think that is cool and emulate his/her attitudes.
Here is a case in point.
When I was growing up I greatly admired Princess Diana, because behind
all the fame, being a royal princess, and all that you can tell she
was a real human being. Not some stuck up rich snob. She dedicated a
lot of time and energy into humanitarian efforts, and visited people
far below her station. The fact that millions of people world wide
came to her funeral is a testament of how greatly admired the woman
was, and how deeply she was able to touch people emotionally. That is
in my opinion a great example of a roll model.  She wasn't perfect,
but she did manage to leave behind a legacy that we should all treat
others with respect, with love, and compassion no matter how rich or
poor they may be. At least that's what I got out of her life's legacy.
Now, compare her with someone today like Britney Spears. Britney
Spears is definitely not someone I'd want my kids to admire and use as
a roll model. She has been in and out of drug rehab, had a couple
quicky mariages and devorces, threw beer bottles at the cops in a
drunken rage when they tried to take her kids to see their father,
dresses up like a tramp, and so on. Not the kind of behavior we want
our children to grow up emulating that's for sure.
Bottom line, I think that these kids probably don't have the best roll
models and parental guidence in their lives. Someone to teach them the
value of compassion, understanding, and to treat others with respect.
In other words they haven't been taught the golden rule to do unto
others as you would have them do unto you.

playing rock band, bla bla.
Scary that these kids will one day run all of our countries... lol I should
of asked who over there wants to get their sighted butts kicked in a match
of tekken by a blind person. I was on both sides of the fence, not being
born blind but later in life, but never would I have reacted with nothing

that they take the time to master a game like that dude did with Zelda.

Heather.However, I really think when we near  final production I'll
look for someone else to do the voice overs.
As far as your points about synthetic speech I definitely can't argue
with that assessment. No matter how good the synthetic speech is it
really lacks emotion and often makes mistakes. So yes I'm interested
in a human voice actor myself, but having problems finding one who
will see it through to the end.

Hi Bryan,

A valid point indeed, and one which I certainly considered before I decided 
to hire voice actors for all of my games; except for the parts I can do here 
in my own studio. I feel, however, that the chances of a purchase increase 
with every little detail of quality featured in the game - especially that of 
the main output voice, as that is what the user will hear possibly for hours 
on end. My filosophy is this, rather spend a little extra and get everything 
as good as it can possibly be as you then stand out above the rest, and are 
thus likely to get more sales in the end.

I tend to agree with you Philip, but the problem is that professional voice 
talent is hardly inexpensive. The lady who does the actual Angela sound 
clips charged a considerable amount just for doing those clips. It would 
cost even more for actual speech of the sort you're thinking of. I agree it 
would sound more esthetically pleasing but it may not be financially 
feasible unless it could be absolutely guaranteed that Thomas would get his

Hi Bryan,
That's right. That's what we call budget equipment. It is inexpensive
semi-professional equipment good enough for a podcast or doing home
recordings, but isn't up to professional recording standards. If you
have ever listened to professional recordings of voice work they tend
to be reallly really good. There is a major difference between a
microphone that costs $500 and a budget microphone that costs maybe
$25 like daylight and dark. There isn't any doubt which is the
superior tool for the job. Unfortunately, most people don't have that
kind of high quality recording equipment just laying around unless
they do it professionally,or have really high standards for equipment.

Re: [Audyssey] Problem with Time of Conflict

hmmm no.
what you do is after you have installed the game presuming you updated from 
within the game run the game which launches the setup.
then install the game and then it will run.
at least thats what it did after the internal upgrade was done.

Hi Charles,
You got that right. My keyboard is a $350 keyboard I purchased a
couple of years ago, which sounds ok, but definitely isn't up to
recording my own game music. A professional musician has an electric
piano that costs somewhere in the range of $3000 to $5000, and has
some truly awesome sound faunts. My little budget job doesn't even

Hi.

I had the same issue.

Deleting the conflict folder in my documents, then selecting not to upgrade to 
the new version seemed to get the game working,  though weerdly enough I'm 
stil told there is a new version and given the upgrade option at start even 
though according to the about screen I'm running version 0.60, which is the

Such is the way with betas though, and at least this means the game is 
playable.

Beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Mota and tts

2010-03-20 Thread shaun everiss
hmmm yeah I've never had anything more powerfull than a soundmax or some low 
end yamaha cards so something like that is semi top.
So creative is not the top.
what is, maybe roland or yamaha the yamaha synths are less sharp sounding than 
the roland stuff.
although the later keyboards are ok.
At 03:20 a.m. 21/03/2010, you wrote:
Hi Shaun,

Not on your life. Close to pro my buttt. You got to be joking me right?

First, of all the SB Live line of cards are old technology.
Yesterday's technology, and now are considered one of Creative's low
budget value sound cards. Definitely not the bleeding edge high end
sound cards they use to be back in the late 90's or so. If you want to
talk pro grade sound card something like the X-Fi would be more on the
list of higher end cards for musicians and sound designers.

Second, Creative Labs has been considerably falling behind in quality
and standards, and if you pay for one of their high priced cards you
are buying the name not the quality. I've had a number of their Audegy
cards totally fail after a couple of months of use, and I have a
friend who invested in an X-Fi only to find it was defective right out
of the box, and had to exchange it for a replacement one that worked.
So Creative is no longer the be all or end all of sound cards.

Third, you do realise that a Del with a 2.8 GHZ processor is on the
low end of processor speed and power these days? My Compaq laptop
purchased two years ago has a 3.6 GHZ Intel processor in it, and even
that is a bit slow compared to what I could purchase now.  So it is
not even remotely in the pro catagory you speak of.

Cheers!
