MACGAMESTORE REFUND DOWNLOAD
cfg file) is a satisfactory option to the people who want it, I will see to it that it is added to the next Book I patch.Disclaimer: To access and download these games, you must first download the Mac Game Store client onto your Mac. If this option (disabling game audio at launch via a statement that must be manually added to the. And again, given the fractionally insignificant number of people complaining in addition to the fact that this is not a bug but a feature request is why we didn't pursuit it any further.
I think the reason this issue wasn't previously addressed in this manner is that the few who complained about it seemed to want more control over the volume levels of all sound channels (which we addressed with the updates to the next game).
MACGAMESTORE REFUND DRIVER
We can shut sound off at the driver level pretty easily, and this method would not require any GUI alteration or significant code adjustment. cfg file to disable all sound completely. Now here is where I admit you are actually correct: it wouldn't be too hard to put a option line in Book Is. For example, I am the sole programmer here and rather than work on the game right now I am doing this. Most of this added flexibility in response to the complaints of a few people, and the length of time needed to incorporate these changes comes from the fact that Basilisk Games is a tiny studio with limited resources. I won't get into the details about all the work that has gone into the next game except to say that Book II's sound engine is significantly more flexible in terms of audio driver selection and volume control. I don't think you appear accusatory.you are asking a valid question. I imagine your internal sound module has several functions which other parts of the game call when they want to play a sound - is it really three weeks worth of work to change these to check the "disable all sound" setting before proceeding with the system level sound calls? But all that is being asked for here is a single checkbox to disable all sound output. I can imagine that completely overhauling your sound system and adding all kinds of user-adjustable control is a lot of work. Well, as I said, there was no way to prevent this post from sounding like I'm accusing a bunch of people of incompetence.
Even if many parts of your code are out to external sound functions directly, a text search-and-replace could probably change these to calls to an internal function which does the right thing. But, if things are structured in a reasonable modular way, it seems like this is just adding an "if" around the bodies of a few functions. It's certainly possible that you've done the internal sound stuff in a different way, and this would explain a 3 weeks overhead for this one checkbox. I am very sorry you are dissatisfied, and if you want a refund, I will be happy to process that for you.īasiliskWrangler wrote:And yet we took the opinions of 4 or 5 people seriously enough to rewrite the sound engine in Book II to support "complete volume and sound driver control" (about 3 weeks of development time).
And yet we took the opinions of 4 or 5 people seriously enough to rewrite the sound engine in Book II to support "complete volume and sound driver control" (about 3 weeks of development time). Adding additional volume function means some fairly major changes to the sound engine (and GUI adjustments for the controls) and it just isn't something we can do to appease a few people. What I am saying is that only a few (perhaps 4-5) people including yourself have had a real problem with the volume settings in the past 8 months that Book I has been available.
We work more hours than you can possibly imagine to follow up on each and every tech support issue that comes our way. Because we are a small indie developer we kiss a LOT of ass to keep customers happy.
