Jim Sachs 08-31-2008 03:21 AM
Prolific is setting the price. I believe it's the same as the previous version - $19.95, with a $9.95 upgrade from v2.6.

EDIT:
Did get to test all the first ones. All the .99 alpha's without smoking my system. :D

Still have them all too. From 99E to 99L and V990, V999 :)
I started with 99F myself. There's gotta be a bunch of us.

I too started with the .99's. I think i even bought it in the .99 stage.
I can't believe it's been this long and i still can't wait for Jim's art work !!!
As a matter of fact I remember the Commodore 64 and Amiga 500 days, Fun times.
Can hardly wait Jim fix them bugs!!!!:)

Yep, I had a AMD 1200 Mgz cpu 125mb of ram an 8gig HD and a Voodoo 5 5500 AGP. And it ran like a charm. That was pretty fast computer then. And still have it in storage. :D

Things may change when I get this thing done and on the market. Maybe I can actually go outside and enjoy the remainder of whatever season this is.
First you have to find the keys to the handcuffs. Could they be in the body of the unconcious CCNE lying near by?

As to whether it's necessary, here's the reaction of Prolific's in-house Beta Tester upon trying out MA3 for the first time yesterday:

" WOW! Who came up with the idea of a music play list?
This feature kicks butt!
I have it running on XP MCE (Flawlessly) with a Linkin Park mp3 playing in the background, bubble sound on. The music auto rewinds when over. That was a GREAT idea!
This could be a HUGE selling point!
I'd buy this right now just on this alone.
The graphics are amazing but I can use MY songs or audio files? WOW "
See you just doomed yourself, because now that there's is a play list someone will get the brilliant Idea of making it a visulaizer plugin for Microsoft Media Player with the fish swimming in time with the music.

How are the fish picker and multimonitor parts going? and have you found a decent set of midi instruments to be distributed with it yet? - Can we ahve a sneak preview of what the default sound track will be? - Just to keep us going!

Stew2000 09-02-2008 11:14 AM
The sound of bubbles and an air pump is usually the default sound track :D

Jim Sachs 09-02-2008 11:22 AM
The FishPicker interface and multimonitor stuff is in the hands of the Alpha testers. They are finding lots of bugs, so I'm currently tracking those down. The multimonitor stuff is especially frustrating because there are millions of combinations of computers/video cards/drivers/monitors out there, and they all seem to behave differently.

Spent a few hours on the MIDI stuff last night. Found some interesting possibilities.

The default sound track is Pachelbel's Canon.

Feldon, Jav, once MA3 is released, the default music when visiting the forum should be Pachelbel's Canon as well!:TU:

Jav400 09-02-2008 04:59 PM
Nah, I like JMJ's - Jonques de Pecheurs au Crepuscule.

It's what I play instead. ;)

ESHIREY 09-02-2008 05:00 PM
That would be cool. I really like the sound of the song.

shade2074 09-02-2008 10:28 PM
What is all this talk of 'bugs' are you adding fish food to MA3 now? :lol:
I hope someone is keeping screen shots of the bugs for the bloopers section of the MA3 disc, it will be fun to see first hand all the things we've been reading about in the forums. :)

It promises to be relaxing. Great!.

rctneil 09-05-2008 04:15 PM
Any recent developments?

Thanks

The Alpha testers are finding bugs, and we're fixing them.

dboyd420 09-08-2008 01:14 PM
Jim, if the fish will be able to have the behavior of swimming in schools, have you thought of adding a random size feature. It would be nice so there is not a bunch of clones swimming together.

-Dave

Jim Sachs 09-08-2008 06:11 PM
The new behavior and sizing will not be in the first release, but will follow shortly. Not only will fish of the same species be different sizes, but slightly different markings.


All times are GMT -6. The time now is 08:01 PM.
