ID SOFTWARE: Creators of the programming algorithm used in
Castle Wolfenstein 3-D. Tom Hall, John Romero and John Carmack first
met as employees for Louisiana based Softdisk. Hall was responsible for
coding Apple II games, Romero, after cutting his teeth on the Commodore
64 and the Apple II, worked on the PC, as did Carmack. Working without
authorization from Softdisk's management, Hall and Cormack created a
near perfect Super Mario clone fror the PC, which they Unleash the dogs
of war dubbed Dangerous Dave in Copyright Infringement. It was written
as much as anything as a programming exercise, but Romero was so
impressed by their work that he arranged for Jay Wilber - a Softdisk
Project Manager - to approach Nintendo with a view to a PC port of
Super Mario Bros. The name of the company that would handle this
conversion was to be id Software. But the project was not to be. One of
the major reasons for buying a NES was Mario - the last thing that
Nintendo wanted was a version of the game on a format that they did not
have absolute control over. Scott Miller, head of shareware publishers
Apogee, managed to get hold of a copy of Dangerous Dave and offered to
fund development of a complete game. Poaching another Softdisk
employee, Adrian Carmack (not related to John), the id team worked in
their spare time to write Commander Keen - Invasion of the Vorticons.
The first two levels of the game could be freely distributed, allowing
the word to spread quickly. After a couple of months the id team
recieved their first royalty check - for $10,000 - and promptly quit
their jobs at Softdisk. Id Software was no longer a group of friends
working together, it was a proper company, founded on the 1st February,
1992. (Excerpted for the ARRGH web-site at http://www.arrgh.co.uk)

INC: Information Utilities Company. An idea backed by Apple
co-founder Steve Wozniak and Source Telecomputing Corporation founder
Jack R. Taub that was going to use NPR (National Public Radio) to
broadcast computer programs over FM airwaves into homes with radio
modems that would be able to download them to their computers. The
information on INC appears in the October 1982 issue of Compute!
Magazine on page 38. As far as I know, the idea never got off the
ground.

INDOOR SOCCER: PHM 3024 - Released 2Q/1981 - MSRP $29.95 -- A
two player game designed to emulate indoor soccer. Each player simply
moves their soccer players on the field to score goals. According to
the documentation (1037109-24) "All the excitement of live soccer in
your home. The most realistic soccer game yet devised, with all the fun
of the real game." As far as I can determine, this is the first
cartridge software produced for the TI-99/4 that specifically supported
the use of TI's Wired Remote Controllers. The program allows the soccer
players to dribble, pass, and tackle and take shots, make saves and of
course make goals. Since this is pre-99/4A era stuff, the graphics for
the game are primitive. I never sensed that this was one of the better
sellers in the TI-99's cartridge library, and suspect that graphics
quality and overall playability were at the core of the problem. This
is another of those early TI-99/4 games which also never got a new
generation cover for the documentation.
User Comments: Strictly a two player game, you and your buddy
can go toe to toe on the field. you set the length of game, name your
teams, and control one key player on your five man team. The ball
caroms nicely off of the wall as you pass it down the field while your
opponent tries to intercept it. You can change your controlled player
as well as control the speed and direction of the passes.

INFOCOM ADVENTURES FOR THE TI-99/4A:
* Cutthroats --
* Deadline -- A wealthy businessman has
been found found dead in the library of his mansion from a drug
overdose. Your task as the investigator is to follow clues, collect
evidence and identify the murderer...before he does you in.
* Enchanter -- Journey into the world of
magical powers. YOU are a novice magician whom Fate has chosen to do
single-handed combat with a dark and fierce power. But worldly weapons
will avail you naught, for your foe is the Evil Warlock who holds Sway
over the land. To defeat him, you will have to match your skills as a
necromancer against his, using spells you have learned from your
masters in the Circle of Enchanter, and others you will acquire as you
proceed on your quest. If you succeed, you will be elevated to a seat
in the illustrious Circle; if you fail.. .but one does not speak of
such things.
* Infidel -- You are marooned by your
followers in the heart of the deadly Egyptian Desert. A soldier of
fortune by trade, you've come hither in search of the great lost
pyramid and its untold riches. Now, alone, you must locate and gain
entry to the tomb, decipher hieraglyphs, and unravel its mysteries one
by one. Through the Antechamber, the Barge Roam, the Chamber of Ra,
death will lick at your heels as you race to the shattering climax of
this match of wits between you and the most ingenious architects,
builders, and cutthroat, of all time. .the ancient Egyptians.
* Planetfall -- You are teleported forward
a hundred centuries to a Stellar Patrol ship of the Third Galactic
Union, where your rank is Ensign 7th Class.., about as low as you can
go. But then your luck takes a turn for the better. Your ship explodes.
Which really is fortunate, because you're thereupon jettisoned away to
a mysterious, deserted world. True, the planet is plagued by floods,
pestilence, and a mutant Wild Kingdom. But there. also Floyd, a
mischievous multipurpose robot and the ideal companion with who, to
brave your new world as you explore its secrets, dare its dangers, and
attempt to discover a means of saving it.
* Sorcerer -- A cryptic diary is all that
remains in the sanctum of Belboz The Necromancer, grand and powerful
leader of the Guild of Enchanter.. To rescue the kingdom and locate
your mentor, you must gain the powers of a true SORCERER. A sequel to
ENCHANTER.
* Starcross -- It's the year 2166. You are
destined to rendezvous with a gargantuan starship from the outer
fringes of the galaxy carrying an alien world, a complex puzzle, and a
challenge that was issued eons ago, from light-years far away. .one
that only you can meet
* Suspended -- You are buried alive in a
cryogenic capsule deep inside an alien world. When an earthquake
disrupts the systems of the Underground Complex you inhabit...systems
that surface life depends on. ..you must stabilize conditions. However,
you can only do so by commanding your six robots, each of whom
perceives the world differently, to perform actions for you. If you
save your world from utter destruction, you've just begun. SUSPENDED is
designed to be replayed numerous times as you learn to optimize your
strategies. You can also go on to two more levels of play, and there's
even an option that let, you customize the game.
* Witness -- A whodoneit thriller of the
thirties with you as the dectective. It's a case of blackmail that
turns into murder before your eyes, and anyone from the knockout
heiress to the poker-faced Oriental butler could be the killer. As in
DEADLINE, your suspects act with minds of their own, and you have just
12 hours to solve the crime. Armed with a police file packed with
crucial physical evidence, you face the tangled web of clues, motives,
and alibis, and the only testimony you can trust is that of your own
eyes.., because you are the WITNESS.
* The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy --
* Zork I: The Great Underground Empire --
confronts you with perils and predicaments ranging from the mystical to
the macabre, as you strive to discover the Twenty Treasures of ZORK and
escape with them and your life.
* Zork II: The Wizard of Frobozz -- takes
you into the new depths of the subterrean realm. There you'll meet the
Wizard, who will attempt to confound your quest with his capricious
powers.
* Zork III: The Dungeon Master -- is the
test of your wisdom and courage. Your odyssey culminates in an
encounter with the Dungeon Master himself, and your destiny hangs in
the balance. When Infocom created these adventures for the TI-99/4A
they deliberately made the "dat" files split, so users would have to
press a key to load the second half of the files. This was done because
the games were released on flippy disks, and a pause in the process was
needed so the user could turn the disk over. The split was made on a
logical boundary... most if not all of the first file (which contained
many non-static variables and memory structures) was loaded into memory
expansion. The second file on the flip side of the disk contains all of
the text and program logic. (Barry Boone - barryb@pennet.com) INFOPRO:

INTEGERS: PHM 3094 - Released 4Q/1982 - MSRP $39.95 -- An
educational cartridge programmed by John C. Plaster which presented a
variety of math problems using positive and negative numbers. It is one
of twelve such cartridges that were produced for Texas Instruments by
Milliken Publishing. Designed for children in grades 5-8.

INTELLESTAR: INTELLESTAR's approach to educational software
was quite different. First, they had science tapes, which nobody else
had. These included the classic "CELLS: the Building Blocks of
Life," which is one of the greatest things ever done on tape. Actually,
it is on three tapes. Also in their Life Science series was "Inside
Frankie Stein," an interactive trip through the human body, and "Heart
Attack," where you, as doctor or nurse, must monitor a patient to
prevent an attack. Other science and math activities included
"Fireball" and "Vyger" (their spelling). "States Alive" was their
social studies contribution. But their masterpiece is "E.T." - "The
Everything Teacher." This 6-tape educational gem should be in every
teacher's classroom, in every home where there are children. Basically,
there is a file editor. This creates the master data base for all the
programs that make up this classroom environment. The four one/two
player or team games include "TV Sweepstakes," which is a game show
that uses the created files. It's a funny and fast-paced and
graphically well-designed show that requires quick thinking on the part
of the participants. "Baseball" is just that. Graphically the "batter's
team" hits and scores as in regular baseball, but only by answering the
data-based questions. The same or different questions may be used for
"Space Patrol - Lost!" and "Last Jellybean on Earth." All four of these
"quizzes" are lots of fun and ingeniously created. The
"Everything Teacher" guides you easily through their data base to
create, literally, everything you need for the children (or adults) you
want to have play these games. Score is kept in each game, too. So,
conceivably, you could have some math, language, science, social
studies, and whatever files for all occasions. -- Intellestar text
above was written in 1993 by Jack Sughrue East Douglas, MA as part of
his TI-101 series of articles.

INVOICE MANAGEMENT: номер по каталогу PHD 5027 - Выпущена программа на дискете во 2-м квартале 1981 - рекомендованная производителем розничная цена USD69.95
-- Это созданная "Texas Instruments" программа на языке "TI BASIC", предназначенная для создания печатных счетов, которую также можно было использовать совместно с программой "Inventory Management" (Управление инвестициями) на диске PHD 5024. Программа работает с 1 или с 2 дисководами,
использует принтер шириной 80 колонок, а также с управляющими картриджами "Personal Record Keeping" или "Statistics", для работы с экранным интерфейсом наподобие того, что у языка "Extended BASIC", что дает дополнительные возможности благодаря ресурсам этих картриджей. Например,
можно использовать программу "CONVERT1" на дискете "Invoice Management" для конвертации структуры файла в формат записей картриджа "PRK", чтобы сортировать свои счета, сохранять сортированные записи на дикету, или использовать программу "CONVERT2" для конвертации сортированных записей
обратно в формат программы "Invoice Management" и для чтения этих новых файлов.
Программа "Invoice Management" могла работать с 1 или с 2 дисководаим гибких дисков, но при запуске нужно было в настройках программы указать конфигурацию системы.
Если выбрана конфигурация, в руководстве пользователя (номер по каталогу 1041554-27) названная "System 1", это означает, что пограмма будет работать только с одним дисководом для хранения данных счетов. Если имеются два дисковода и если выбрана конфигурация "System 2", то оба дисковода можно использовать для хранения данных.
Конфигурацию "System 1" можно переключить на "System 2" в любой момент, однако конфигурация "System 2" не может быть переключена в "System 1".
Конфигурация "System 2" рекомендуется для работы одновременно программ "Invoice Management" и "Inventory Management", потому что они могут работать совместно. Конфигурация "System 2" позволяет работать с 560 пользовательскими записями, или с 400 встроенными записями в программе "Inventory Managemet". С помощью программы "Invoice Management" пользователь мог создать счет, пополнить его, распечатать его, удалить этот счет, конвертировать данные в формат картриджей "Personal Record Keeping" или "Statistics", и обратно. К сожалению, использование картриджей с программами PRK или Statistics было утомительным процессов, который требовал от пользователя иметь для этой цели отдельную дискету с данными, которые следовало скопировать в файл CUST с дискеты, работающей с программой "Invoice Management" на эту онвую дикету, потом выйти и вызвать в "TI BASIC" приглашение, после чего набрать команду CALL P(8000), выйти в цветной экран, после чего запустить повторно программу "Personal Record Keeping" или "Statistics". Да уж! Программа "Invoice Management" входила частью в бибилиотеку "Business Aids" (Помощник безнесмену). Подробности можно найти в статьях BUSINESS AIDS; CASH MANAGEMENT; FINANCE MANAGEMENT; INVENTORY
MANAGEMENT; LEASE/PURCHASE.
