Roadways PC version 3.01 Readme file:

This is the newest version of Roadways PC, released on 7 December
1991. All of the files should have the following date and time
stamps on them, with the possible exception of the ROADWAYS.DAT,
ROADWAYS.TIM, ROADWAYS.CTY and the ROADWAYS.STA files, which are
all text files that can be user modified:

8:00 p.m. - 24 November 1991

Version 3.01 is a maintenance release of version 3.0 which was
released on 24 November 1991. This release fixes a couple of
undocumented features that crept in while adding other features.
Following is a list of the fixes in 3.01:

1 - I discovered that somehow a semicolon got erased and when
using the arrow keys to scroll down the list of cities, when
reaching the bottom, the entire screen would move up a line.
This made a real mess of the display.

2 - When calculating speed on a stretch of highway, the speed
assigned to the 65 mph areas was used for all roads in states
with 65 mph speed limits. This was fixed to make state roads
accept the speed assigned to the 55 mph areas.

3 - Due to the above bug, I also found the same problem in the
portion of the program that generates the .TIM file. This was
fixed.

The City Editor mentioned in the manual may not be ready
when you get this copy of Roadways PC. It is expected to be
released sometime in January 1992. Pre-delivery orders are being
accepted now at the cost of $10.00.

Specify that you want to order the City Editor and send a check
or money order made out to:

Doug Fitler

and send to:

Roadways PC
Box 424
Scott AFB, Il. 62225

concept! Register your copy now if you haven't already!

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
