[games_access] Game Accessibility Suite, and first prototype...

[Barrie Ellis]

Can't get this running:

Download page: 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=212119&package_id=258851
Code Docs: http://gameaccess.sourceforge.net
Project URL: http://sourceforge.net/projects/gameaccess
Source Repository: 
https://gameaccess.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gameaccess/trunk/

I've downloaded GASThrottle - but am not sure how to get it working.

Using WildSnake's free demo of Soccer Stars Pinball 
http://www.wildsnake.com/demo/ss/ - I tried this:

gasthrottle 1 -s "C:\Program Files\WildSnake Software\Soccer Stars 
Pinball\Soccers.exe"

But it just doesn't work.

Any help greatfully received..

Barrie
