Copyright issues aside, the conversion of a mainstream product is very
difficult at best.
You're assuming someone out there will have the free time to convert such a
game into a format of your choosing. You're also assuming that this is easy.
It isn't.

Salutations, Chastity.
A MOO game is a mud game. MOO is just the name for the base code. MOO, ROM,
ROT, Godwars, DIKU, MERC, Circle, Smaug... these are all mud games. They all
use the telnet protocol, can all be connected to with any mud client (or,
for that matter, Telnet), and in general
Hi,
By running a MOO game, do you mean playing one or
starting/programming one? If you want to program/start one, you need
to learn a simple programming language called MOO or you could write
your own server (but that's more difficult). I own a MOO called
LearnMOO, that teaches people how to

As a blind gamer and software developer myself I would love to be able
to convert all of my mainstream games into audio games, to make them
100% accessible, as much as the next blind gamer on this list. However,

Hi Allison,
Agreed. None of us stand to gain anything by bemoaning the status quo.
What we need to have is some of that proactive thinking that will help
us adapt to the situation. There are probably lots of alternatives here
even if they aren't ideal.
One thing we can't do is ask a developer
Hi,
Not only that, but one fact some people often overlook is some game's

another. There are lots of things a vidio game designer can do with
graphics that can't be easily translated into audio. It can be something

Well, if it's a different color of enemy one would think we could do
something like have voices varying as a substitute for colors... but that
would be expensive too, wouldn't it?

Hi,
thanks Kai. I think you hit the nail on the head so to speak.
As Kai pointed out legal issues aside time is a major factor when
considering creating any type of game. Some games such as Doom III was a
major undertaking even with all the resources of a mainstream game
company. If a

Hi,
Well, there are a number of solutions for that particular problem. Let's
use a real world example here fordemonstration.
In Tomb Raider The Prophecy there are a number of enemy wolves Lara
Croft has to kill or avoid. The color of the wolf determines how deadly
it is. A gray wolf is
In those sorts of translation cases, I do believe there are things which
could be done, for example rather than a completely different sound for
deadlier fireballs, lowering the sounds pitch, thus the lower pitched the
sound the more dangerous the fireball.
to me, the most difficult
Well I kind of figured that, and that makes sense. I do agree that having a
key tell you what everything is would slow down the gameplay. But could you,
say, have an option for sound descriptions in the main menu or something,
like most other accessible games. But in a less expensive way..
Hi Dark,
Agreed. As I said before there are several different ways a developer
might handle the problem of translating different colored enemies,
different colored fireballs, etc in to audio. Changing the pitch of the
sound in real time up or down is one way to do it. Although, not all

Like I said to Dark changing the pitch, adding an item in the sound

Hey guys; Was wondering exactly what is an amulator and how does it work
with pc/videogames. I found a torrent that contains the soul edge game and
its amulator, but the file is only 36 mbs? That can't be right can it? I'd
think the game itself would be somewhere around 2 gbs.

hi. no, certain not 2 gb!! that's correct i think.
it depends for what console it is. it's a ps1 game for example, it's
perfectly possible. if it's a ps2 game, not.

Unfortunately not. Those are really the only accessible racing games
that have decent game play, support a racing wheel, and are up to date
at this time. My own racing game, USA Raceway, is far from complete so
that doesn't count yet. All of the other racing games aren't worth your
Hi,
Well, not really. There was one game, Danger City, that started out like
a Street Fighter game, but all the demo has is the first level. Beyond
that I can't think of anything that is remotely like MK or SF right now.

Michael,
Weather an accessible developer decides to sell the game or not it is
still illegal. It is called copyright infringement regardless if the
developer sells it, makes it open source, whatever. That makes it a
potential risk for any developer who tries it. None of us are completely
It's still illegal even if you don't charge for it. If you don't get sued
you'd probably get handed a cease and desist letter. Face it Michael, if you
want to play the game you're just going to have to tough it out.

I do know that the tads games will work with jaws, but you need the wintads
interpreter. This is not self-voicing and you set jaws to the read all
command, the insert S key stroke. Then, you read the game using jaws. I know
philfer does not work with tads games, only glulx and Z-code games.
Thanks Brian... I was going to say that. If a fighting game is what you want
