MTREK FOR RSX-11M USERS --------------------------- Requirements: RSX-11M V3.2 (should work on V3.1) Memory requirements are approximate: (built with resident libraries) Common 3.5K words Driver 6K words Robots 3.5K words Player 9.5K words Description: This version of MTREK was modified to run under RSX-11M on a PDP 11/60 with 128K memory limit (the game can also run on smaller systems 11/23, 11/34, etc. with less memory). Because of the memory limit, the number of available player ships was reduced from 8 to 4 and the robots may use ships 1-6. Also the taskbuild files contain a reference to our fortran resident library, you will have to change the name (usually F4PRES). With these changes, the MTREK game is capable of running without checkpointing or shuffling occurring. It might be noted that checkpointing and shuffling degrades the game horribly. How to create MTREK: @BUILD ! assemble all required modules Put LEDFORD.STB & .TSK in LB:[1,1] How to start up MTREK: @SETPAR ! Remove current partitions and install LEDFORD common partition, driver and robots programs. This command file should be edited to match the configuration of your system. RUN MTREKINI ! Run initialization program. RUN ROBOT ! Set up robots. RUN MTR ! Start driver task. @GAMETIME ! Install player program. @KILLTREK ! Abort and remove MTREK ( does not abort or remove spawned versions of tasks). Also sets partition back to normal. Have fun and good luck!!!!!!!!!
