Topic: problem playing the curb game

Re: problem playing the curb game
When the game is loaded, you can switch off screenreaders. Please read here:

It's about getting "the focus" to the game! And no, that has nothing to do with "the matrix". A screenreader mostly controls the focus and does not want to give it to the game.

yeah i thought it said something about turning the virtual cursor off but this doesn't work either. also, it seems like the curb game still does not react to the arrows once i disable my screenreader; refreshing works however.

Hello!
I have also found a problem with the Curb Game. When I've started the game, turned off the Screenreader, and when this message apears "The Curb Game! Press a key". I try to do so, but nothing happens, it's just that message repeating itself all the way and the music in the background. have anyone experienced this problem?

If that happens try alt tabbing, you might be on the wrong window.
Alternately try insert plus Z in Jaws to turn off the virtual cursor and use the PC cursor instead. This is the only way to use the normal PC cursor, and if you have the virtual PC cursor on then Jaws uses the arrows to move through the web page instead of sending it to the game which you need.
Re: problem playing the curb game
Actually I tried the curb game with a new computer I got, I got the sound but cursors didn't work. I wonder if it's something about the new version of Shockwave, something the game uses might have been changed or removed perhaps?
This may or may not affect computers which previously had the old version of shockwave installed if this is the case, it may be like the DirectX situation where Vista has some of the files for older versions missing.

Re: problem playing the curb game
That is in fact something I had tried when I had issues with the new computer. Might try it again some time though just to see if it was an anomoly with my system at the time.

Sorry, but we've been getting some fairly ambiguous spambots of late. Both your posts today were fairly generic, and combined with your signature I've a concern that you might or might not be a spambot. If you're not then please reply to ease my concerns, and I'll be happy to leave you alone.
