 The Childhood Gaming Project
Submitted Thursday, October 29, 2009 - 11:55:11 PM by Klaitu
So, a few years ago I began to collect all the old PC games that for whatever reason, I no longer had the disks for. Today, we are used to games on disc, but these games are pre-CD. Many of them are on floppy disks.
I've written about my struggles in getting the games to play, and how DOSbox and D-Fend have solved my every DOS gaming problem.. but I've never written about all the work that I've put into it. Now that I've spent over 6 years doing it and I'm almost done, I figured now is as good a time as any.
When I was a wee nerdlet in Jr High school, some friends and I started up a computer club at school. We got together with other kids and we would trade games around at lunchtime. My best friend at the time and I began to be the kingpins of the video game trade, as it were. Thinking about it now, we were pretty much a miniature software piracy ring.
My friend and I had a large assortment of PC games personally, and we started out with only trading.. but we didn't want to give out our original disks to someone else in case they didn't get returned.. so we made copies, and we lent those out to the other kids.
As software companies are apt to do, they tried to copy-protect the games. They would format the disk with an exactly specific number of bytes, and if your copy didn't do that too, the game wouldn't work. They had other methods too, but the number 1 primary copy protection was document copy protection.
Document copy protection is when the game asks you a question, and the only answer is in the manual.. so in order to get around that, you had to have a copy of the manual. All this did was make it harder because we went so far as to make copies of the manuals as well.
Some developers would get sneaky and require you to look through colored cellophane to read the answers in question. When that happened, we merely wrote the information out longhand and copied that. Heck, what else were we supposed to be doing in study hall? Study? Sheesh. We copied entire manuals longhand at times. Codewheels? Please, it's just a fancy way to draw a table.
At any rate, we overcame all of these issues, and we lent our games out in exchange for a game that they had.. and since they gave us their original disks most of the time, we just made copies of those just as if they were our own. Of course, we also tried to exchange manuals whenever possible, but that document copy protection did foul us up from time to time if the other kid didn't give us the manual.
Once we had the game copied, we returned their original disks, and eventually we got our copies back from them as well, ready to be lent to some other kid with a game.. and there were plenty of kids in the school to trade with. By Christmas we had 20 kids in the group.. so many kids that I had to make membership cards and keep records of who had what, because we also facilitated trade between kids and other kids if we already had the game they had to offer up.
Sometimes we would be locked with the older members because we had all their games, and they had all our games, so we would trade kid 1 to kid 2 in order to get his game to trade to kid 3 to get his game that we didn't have, so that we could trade it to kid 4 and get another game that neither of us had before.
It was just one year, but in that year we amassed a ridiculous number of games, and we went through hundreds of diskettes. We had so many games that we nearly completed the entire Sierra library as it was in 1991. Kids were bringing out their ancient old games like Karateka, Sopwith, and Ultima 2 so they could hook up with some of our more recent games.
This was the year that I was transferred out of public school and into Christian schools, where the software piracy rings were virtually nonexistant. My friend, however, stayed in the public school and I still helped him do the copies. We even made a copy of the CD version of Police Quest: Open Season which took up 50 diskettes when we were done and took hours upon hours to reinstall and construct properly on a hard drive.
The invention of CD's and our seperation in schooling led to the downfall of our little league software piracy ring.. but I still retained all the games I had from that era.
That was in the early 1990's.. even before Windows 95 was invented. Fast forward to 2003!
Did you know that diskettes have a shelf life? Well, they do. They say it's 10 years, but it's not, because many of my original diskettes still worked, despite being more than 15 years old.. though nobody knows exactly when a diskette might go bad, I decided to pull all the games off them and put them onto hard drives, and then burn them to a sequence of DVD's. Little did I know what I was getting myself into.
At first, it was a boring and repetitive task of copying the contents of a diskette onto my hard drive. Each one in it's own directory. This became a problem because many of the games are multiple disks, and some of the disks had gotten too old to be used. In many cases, I was able to get data off a few of the originals, and a few of the copies I had made. A few games were unrecoverable (sadly, X-Wing was one of those) and a lot of the pirated copies didn't work either because we bought the cheapest diskettes we could find at the time.. and to top it all off, most of the manuals were missing anyway.
On the internet, this was the age of the dawn of abandonware, before the ESA started combating it, so you could get just about any DOS game you wanted online, and I used this to my advantage in "filling in the gaps" of my old diskettes.
Once I had amassed the bulk of my collection, I went about trying to get the games to work on modern computers.. a struggle that I have previously written about. This went on as a hobby for another few years until I started working for Hertz, at which point I finally had the money to buy originals for most of the old games I was missing, including the ones that were pirated from those other kids of long ago.
Then it was a matter of getting them all together in a unified directory structure and customizing DOSbox configurations for all of them, which took a long, long, looong time. I'm still not completely done with that part, but I am now to a point where all the games run flawlessly, and I have fixed all soundcard and timer issues with the games.
The last step in the process is importing all the box art, manuals, and title screens into D-Fend.
Now that I've explained all that out, I think it's time I stepped back and took a look at my work.. BEHOLD the export of my D-Fend Data File!

Roger Wilco is one of the most important men on the starship Arcada: he is the
janitor! Just when he was doing what he does best (dozing off in a closet), the shrill
sound of an alarm penetrated the air. Arcada is attacked by the evil Sariens! Before
you realize what is going on, you discover that you are the only survivor. The Sariens
have killed the entire crew and stolen the valuable Star Generator. Your immediate
task will be to find a way to leave Arcada, that is about to explode in fifteen minutes.
And then you'll have to show the Sariens why they should never mess with brave
intergalactic janitors!

Notes:
Poor Roger Wilco, while our ace-janitor was taking a nap in the utility closet the evil
Sariens attacked the starship Arcada, murdered the rest of the crew and stole the Star
Generator. This is a tool that can turn a barren moon into a blazing sun, but I bet I the
Sariens' intentions are a lot less noble. Now it's up to Roger to stop them. The future
of the galaxy lies in his, rather clumsy, hands! But first you'll have to find a way for
Roger to get off the Arcada before it explodes. You have fifteen minutes...

scientist is supposed to, Vohaul returns with an even meaner scheme. This time he
intends to infest the planet Xenon with thousands of genetically engineered door-to-
door life insurance salesmen. The last thing he wants is you, ace-janitor Roger Wilco,
messing things up and so you are captured and brought to the planet Labion to spend
the rest of your days working in Vohaul's mines. Fortunately the shuttle that takes you
to the mines crashes and you're the only survivor.

Notes:
Space Quest 3 is a graphical adventure. The mouse is functional for movement and
inventory access, however the game primarily relies on a text parser for specific
commands and manipulation of objects on screen. In addition to the regular game, there
is also a simple non-scrolling Astro Chicken game that's playable, as well as a radar
screen representation for ship-to-ship space combat.

Notes:
Description Following his humorous adventures in Space Quest III: The
Pirates of Pestulon , Roger Wilco is
relaxing at his favorite pub somewhere in time and space when heavily armed soldiers
enter the room. Carrying a parting message from Roger's old nemesis, Sludge Vohaul,
they plan to get rid of the janitorial hero, execution style. That is until a man with an
over-sized hair dryer helps Roger escape through a time rip into the future.. Now
Roger Wilco has woken up on his home planet, sometime in Space Quest XII. The
series has gone to ruin without it's hero, Vohaul rules all.. Roger must quickly hotwire
a time pod and undo Vohaul's plot. The most logical way to do this is to run amok
through past, future and the end of the universe, having a few laughs along the way. If
there's a few spare moments, he might swing by the galaxy's biggest mall, charm his
ex-girlfriend whom he knows nothing about and provoke some brawly monochrome
bikers living in the original graphics of Space Quest I encounter>. Space Quest IV is the first in the Space Quest series to feature Sierra's

the Starfleet Aptitude Test, Roger is finally given the rank of captain, his own ship (a
garbage scow) and a mission: to explore strange new worlds (which no man in his
right mind would explore), to seek out new life and new civilizations (that grew out of
the massive amounts of trash Roger will collect on his way), to boldy go where no
man has gone before (fortunately for him)!

Notes:
Roger Wilco, the brave interstellar janitor who has already saved the universe from
many great dangers, is now in a very embarrassing position. His commanders show no
respect for his courageous actions in Space Quest 5. Instead, he is being accused of
all kinds of violations against the galactic law, is deprived of all the honors he got in the
previous game, and as a token of mercy, is allowed to return to his old job - cleaning
closets... But those unfortunate events are just the beginning of much bigger troubles
Roger will get into. Once again, the future of galaxy depends on him!

Genre : Adventure
Developer : Sierra On-Line
Publisher : Sierra On-Line
Year : 1986
Language : English
Internet address : http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/black-cauldron
Notes:
Based on the Disney movie of the same name, The Black Cauldron focuses on the
story of Taran, who is an assistant Pig-keeper in the land of Caer Dalben. One day
Taran notices that one of his pigs, Hen Wen has magical powers. The Evil Horned
King wants the pig so that he can locate the Black Cauldron and ultimately rule the
world. Taran must now embark on a mission to rescue Hen Wen and defeat the Evil
Horned King before his can discover the Cauldron's location.
The Black Cauldron is a side-view adventure game. Gameplay is similar to other
Sierra adventure games of its day (such as Space Quest II or King's Quest III) but
does not use a text parser. Instead the function keys are used to initiate actions.
Players control Taran and can make him walk, run, swim and interact (talk) with other
characters in the game. Puzzle-solving and advancement in the plot requires item
manipulation of using the right item at the right time or at the right location.

Notes:
A platform shooter from Japan, Thexder offers many levels and diverse enemies that
gradually increase in difficulty. You pilot a Battletech-style robot capable of switching
from a 'mech into a jet at any time. Your weapon auto-aims, but uses up a fixed
amount of rechargable energy; if you run out of this energy, you'll have to wait a few
seconds before you can fire again. Your 'mech also contains a shield that can be
activated to protect you from harm, but this lasts for a few seconds and uses up some
of your life energy.

Better than I Thought
Overheard on MSN Messenger
I'm glad to say that it does! Uncharted 2 has all that same run-and-gun action from the first one, but it kicks it up a notch. The entire game is pretty much nonstop action, and the game forces you to keep moving along at a pretty good clip, so there are no lulls.
