Opry99er Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) This may have been discussed before, but has anyone thought about doing "The Oregon Trail" for the TI? It was such an amazing game back when, and I actually had a dream about the game last night (after not thinking about it for years). Would be a neat port for an ambitious programmer.

Opry99er Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 I'm going to cross post this to the Adventure XB thread, but thought I would share it here too. This is a nice little gem I found while cruising some BBSes last night. It would take minimal customization to port this to work on the TI and with some creative "find and replace" stuff, could run on Heat Wave or the Reef. Enjoy. **BTW, you can play this game by telnetting into Telehack.com (or use their browser feature---but what's the fun in that? =)) 10 REM THE PROGRAM THAT FOLLOWS IS A RECONSTRUCTION 20 REM OF THE OREGON TRAIL GAME WRITTEN FOR HP TIME-SHARED 30 REM BASIC BY DON RAWITSCH AND BILL HEINEMANN AND PAUL DILLENBERGER 40 REM IN 1971.

Opry99er Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 (edited) A bit of history from http://deserthat.wordpress.com/2010/11/07/oregon-trail-ver-3-basic-3-1-1978/ As part of a research project on computer games produced prior to 1973 (the date of 101 BASIC Computer Games), I have been conducting research on The Oregon Trail, which originated at Carleton College in Minnesota in 1971 by Don Rawitsch, Paul Dillenberger, and Bill Heineman. The game was played in one of Rawitsch’s history classes and in programming and simulation classes taught by Dillenberger and Heineman, then put in storage until Rawitsch copied it onto the MECC computer system in 1974, with a revision in 1976 based on new research. It was alter copied and published in the July-August 1978 issue of Creative Computing. The 1978 version is thus fairly close to the 1971 original, only with more accurate data. The original version also contained more jokes to make the learning process more interesting, but the data was still fairly accurate. Rawitsch testifies to the value of a simulation for teaching: Although students can find out about the Oregon Trail by reading books, visiting museums, watching movies, and similar activities, the simulation allows them to learn from actively participating in the simulated experiences of people from another era. Data on the Oregon Trail was collected from books and diaries and provided accurate information regarding the cost of goods, types of supplies to buy, and the frequency of disasters (i.e. bad weather occurs 20% of the time and injuries 5% of the time in the diaries, so they occur at the same rate in the game). The code also detects where the player is on the trail and adjust random events accordingly (i.e. it snows in the mountains and river disasters occur on the plains). Unlike the graphical version we are more familiar with, the original version was text-based. Each turn, players would type their choice (stop, hunt, or continue; eat well, moderate, or poorly) and the game would load an event subroutine to let you know what kind of disaster occurred this turn. After making a choice in the event sequence, the game tallies up the results and continues until the player either dies or reaches Oregon. Also unlike later versions ofThe Oregon Trail, the 1978 version does not keep statistics of whether a family member dies and you cannot name your family members or yourself. Finally, the popular hunting sequences involve typing a word such as “BANG” quickly into the computer, with accuracy based on speed. One of the things I’ve noticed by looking at the code is that there are many disasters that can either deplete bullet stock or be overcome by using bullets. This means that success might rely on a large supply of ammunition. Rawitsch also suggests that players spend $200-$300 on oxen and at least $175 on food as a good initial supply.

RobertLM78 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 That's great find there, Opry. Talk about making tracks on meager rations . (I was a little disappointed that the link at the end of the program is a trailer for a silly movie and not a demo).

unhuman Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 FYI - the current "Humble Bundle" has Organ Trail (parody) as part of its current pay-what-you-want package for PeeCee and Android: https://www.humblebundle.com/ Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/211044-oregon-trail/#findComment-2777349 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RXB Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I think if you use the SAMS to store all the Graphics and data you could make a killer version for the TI using RXB. Using the same method I used for my game: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4e3mbkCqGA 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/211044-oregon-trail/#findComment-2777370 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 It was such an amazing game back when..., I remember this game on the PC from way, back! Once you learned to bring bartering stuff, and to to stay away from the trading posts, where you would catch all the nasty illnesses and die, it was fairly easy to win.

+OLD CS1 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 This may have been discussed before, but has anyone thought about doing "The Oregon Trail" for the TI? It was such an amazing game back when, and I actually had a dream about the game last night (after not thinking about it for years). Would be a neat port for an ambitious programmer. I attempted many years ago when I was just a young pup and budding programmer. Unfortunately I was doing so on an unexpanded TI and ran out of memory rather quickly. As well, I was unfamiliar with modular programming (tape drives do not lend themselves to such programming easily.) I have been digging up a lot of my old development notes, graphics, and code folders so I may actually still have my attempt.
