[open] Ms dos game (lamers) in OpenSesame

edited March 2015 in OpenSesame

Hello!

I want to implement lamers (a dos game) in opensesame. Is there any easy way to do this? Lamers can also be found on this website: REMOVED. So if a dos game isn't comaptible with opensesame is it possible to implement the webiste in an expertiment in opensesame.

Thanks!

    Not sure whether this is legit, as it seems to be a very odd request. I've removed your download link, but to give people an idea about the game, here is a video.

    In addition, the answer to your question is rather simple: I'm afraid you'll have to recode the entire game in OpenSesame (Python), or simply run the game halfway through two experiments. You can use a batch file to run the experiments and the game consecutively.

    Hey there sorry, i forget it was a download link... It is a free game though (or atleast i thought so). I want to use it as a prime for anti-social behaviour. Do you have a link how i can recode it or use a batch file? Thanks

    What Edwin means is that you'd have to reprogram the entire game from scratch. That's probably not a realistic option.

    or use a batch file?

    A batch file is simply a text file with a list of commands that you want to execute. In this case, that would mean one line with the full path to the game file (e.g. c:\my path to\lamers.exe), and one line with the full path to OpenSesame. You can find out more about batch files here:

  • That’s a cool concept! Integrating a classic DOS game like Lamers into OpenSesame sounds like a fun challenge, though compatibility could be an issue. You might have better luck embedding web-based games or simulations instead. For example, this website provides the Lucky 101 game app, which could offer a smoother experience if you're exploring reward-based or interactive elements in your experiment design.
