I'm almost certain you are talking about Adventure, which is the first IF and was also making the rounds on Arpanet (early military version of the internet) in the period you're talking about.

 

From wikipaedia for interactive fiction:

 

 

That seems right, how about that! I'm a relic! :)

I remember beating it and wanting more but that was the only game she knew of. This had to be around 1979/80.

Wow! You got me beat. I remember using Q-Link on my Commodore 64's 300 baud modem in the early or mid-80s to connect to an internet area where you could chat with people in chat rooms; download MIDI-style songs/music; read news; play games; etc. Ooh, found Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_Link

Ahhh, the Commode 64! I had one during my first attempt at college in 89. I tried to pawn it for beer money but the pawnshop owner laughed in my face! :laugh: So my crew of ne'er do wells and I started stealing other peoples textbooks and selling them back to the off campus bookstores. Our own textbooks had been sold off long ago.

      Was checking out old translation packs and decided to fire up TDM 1.07. Rightful Property with sub-20 FPS areas yay! ( same areas run at 180FPS with cranked eye candy on 2.12 )

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.
