MAZE 3.0, a 3D graphics MAZE program.
What? Another maze program? No way! There is no other program quite like
MAZE 3.0. A brief list of MAZE30's unique features:
1) MAZE allows a three dimensional view during exploration of the
maze exactly as is encountered when exploring caves. MAZE provides
players many options including use of a compass, and the ability to
leave markers in rooms.
2) MAZE automatically recognizes most video hardware and will use advanced
palette switching techniques to provide instantaneous video displays for
use with EGA or VGA video adapters.
3) Users with PCs incapable of graphics can still enjoy the full
capabilities of MAZE through a character graphics mode.
4) Each maze generated is unique. The user can specify any size maze from a
2 by 2 to an 80 by 80 maze.
5) The mazes can be printed afterwards or saved to a file. MAZE will
generate IBM graphics characters or common ASCII characters which any
printer can print.
6) MAZE has been developed by a professional programmer and has been
thoroughly debugged on a variety of different PCs.
7) MAZE contains extensive help screens - all the documentation is
available from inside the program.
Files distributed:
M3.COM - A file which will produce the following files when
executed. If you pass a copy of MAZE on to others
please distribute this file.
MAZE30.EXE - Self sufficient executable program. Requires 178K
free RAM and DOS 2.0 or higher. MAZE should run on all IBM
PCs and compatible clones. This program has built in help
information and an introduction.
MAZE30.DOC - User directions on how and why to use MAZE30.
M3READ.ME - Short intro to MAZE (this file).
The original Toshiba 1100 laptop PC has its own somewhat strange attribute
assignment for display. If you have a similar non-standard display
invoke MAZE with: "MAZE30 x". This should be tried if the display
is not readable on your PC. This may be a peculiarity of the older Toshiba
Laptop displays. The new ones including the T1000 and T1100, do not seem to
have this problem.
You are encouraged to pass this program on to others, but please keep
all files together and do not modify the program or the documentation.
If you transmit this program of the telephone, please ARC all 3 files together
and use an error checking protocol such as Xmodem.
