[Audyssey] A Question About Winlife 4

2013-06-11 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi all, I was just playing a quick game of Jim Kitchen's life when I noticed something a bit strange about the game. I noticed you can buy a house for $400,000, but you have to pay $500,000 for property taxes. Besides being absolutely unrealistic I was wondering why the property taxes costs more t

Hi Shaun, I see. Well, you are out of luck there. All of the package managers like rpm, dpkg, packman, etc are pretty much exclusive to Linux. Windows has its own setup and installers like Nullsoft, Inno Setup, Microsoft Setup Installer, etc which work totally different from the Linux setup and in

Thanks Paul. I'd thought about it ages ago when I was first getting into audio games but wasn't interested in doing the work for it myself. I'm glad I finally did and that you like the idea. As the original audiogames.net list was missing a few games and had a few non-games included I think I
