Calc Easter Eggs
« on: February 06, 2010, 06:07:36 am »
Easter Eggs


  • Bubble Bobble
All versions except the 1.0 alpha: in the app version, press [X²] to play IceClimb. (cooliojazz and Silver Shadow)

  • Calcsys
In the console, type:
GATOS: "Alfie and Felix"  (mapar007)
GREENLIGHTGO: a tunnel game with inverted arrow keys. (mapar007)
MOUSE: weird mouse demo?  (mapar007)
REF: lookup a frequently used equate. (e.g. if you enter REF 86EC calcsys says "SAVESSCREEN", if you enter REF APPBACKUPSCREEN you get "9872")  (mapar007)
SMILE: number guessing game, but with a twist: the numbers are in hexadecimal! (Silver Shadow)
WHOAMI: you get "Jackie Chan?" as a reply. (mapar007)

  • DoorsCS
Right after launching DoorsCS, hold down the [2] key. A warning message appears, asking whether you want the calc to crash or not. Press [CLEAR]. A list appears with all the people Kerm Martian wants to thank. Press [2nd] to exit. (Silver Shadow)

  • Graph3
If you're in the 3d graphing mode and type in KIRK for Z1, Kirk's name will be displayed. (Hot_Dog)
Press ZOOM twice while viewing a graph to save the platypus. (calc84maniac)

  • MirageOS
MirageOS 1.0: have three folders named SAVE, THE and WHALES. Enable "Save the whales" in the options menu. Go check your catalog. (too many people ;D )

These are probably known to most of you:

Calcsys console:
GREENLIGHTGO for a tunnel game with inverted arrow keys
WHOAMI: you get "Jackie Chan?" as a reply
REF: lookup a frequently used equate. (e.g. if you enter REF 86EC calcsys says "SAVESSCREEN", if you enter REF APPBACKUPSCREEN you get "9872")
GATOS: "Alfie and Felix"
MOUSE: weird mouse demo?

MirageOS 1.1 and lower:
Have three folders named SAVE, THE and WHALES. Enable "Save the whales" in the options menu. Go check your catalog ;)

(note: iirc this doesn't work on MirageOS 1.2, although the option still exists, but it has no effect)

I thought the MOS one only worked on 1.0, not 1.1?

Yeah that's where I found this

On a semi-off-topic note didn't BrandonW have a mirror of his site called calcporn.com? It's down, now, though. I believe some Google search might give some results from #tcpa logs, though.
