For those not having the real machine, you can try Vice emulator with the proper settings (no expansion memory, 5kb of ram) or else it won't run: Settings -> Vic settings

Congrats to Ultra and 4Mat for the great and fast job.

i can't comment on the code, and i would suck at doing so - so i'll just take this as being the best multiparter i've seen for the non-expanded machine yet. excellent musick by 4-mat, excellent design, and uh .. i think the code's good too. if only i could say something about that.

megademo + amazing stuff + great music. and a surprise as well (+ 4mat coding?! on a vic20?! :)). since i love classic raster effects i love the greetings part. now i must watch this again :)
rulez added on the 2007-09-09 10:13:00 by prm prm
Wow, great effects + music, and it seems to go on forever :D

Only criticism - the music cuts a bit to abruptly in most parts, but i guess it's a minor thing.
rulez added on the 2007-09-09 10:26:36 by psonice psonice
An amazing load of effects.... not my prefered Vic20 demo (Robotic Liberation is definitively the top) but the 2nd ;-)

Some effects absolutely fabulous.... some maybe too newskool for the Vic20 (offsetmap4ever ?)... I'm really fond of the "classic effects" (scroller, dots, distorts, rasters...)

very nice indeed, entertaining.. how many loading bars can you get in a demo? :)

rulez added on the 2007-09-09 11:30:49 by alk alk
C-64 guys should finally realize that putting stuff in the "borders" is not an issue on the VIC-20:

$9000 = x position of screen
$9001 = y posiiton of screen
$9002 = width of screen
$9003 = height of screen

Pure Rock'n'Roll!
I esp dig the music, I didn't know that this 1980 vintage VIC can produce such nice ziks.

Only small thing: part transitions are too abrupt but it doesn't kill the experience!

Perhaps the first vic20 demo with decent music.

But the loader bar armada kills the flow. :(

Well yes, it was a unexpected surprise to see Orb on the Vic20. There are a lot of nice parts here, maybe the effects are a bit too lowres for my taste so much that I liked the scroller parts more, and of course I luv the music!!!

OK, I finally managed having a look on it, using VICE emulator.
My personal thought : the beginning of the production is really, really, really impressive. Unfortunately, last parts become progressively kind of boring (sinus dots and horizontal deformation coming to my mind).
You did an awesome job here !.. it would be definitively nice to see other Orb productions soon ;)

rulez added on the 2007-09-11 15:43:41 by Axel Axel
BTW - can someone tell me why this production is called "megademo" ?

I mean, and correct me if I'm wrong..

- a multi-part production where users wait for the end of a part or press space to discover the next one should be called a MAXIDEMO

- a multi-part production with a menu to select parts to launch should be called a MEGADEMO

Your thought?
added on the 2007-09-11 16:21:00 by norecess norecess
NoRecess: if you look at RSI Megademo or some Kefrens Megademos (not all, especially 8), they had no menu :)
added on the 2007-09-11 16:45:46 by keops keops
Also there are a lot of C64 demos without a menu that are called Megademos. ;)

norecess, the word megademo comes from when the first megademo was released in 1987, its unpacked size was one MEGAbyte, so the creators decided to name it that way and started a trend.

THIS DEMO (even on emul) IS *FANTASTIC*. I'm shocked. Every part is 5Kb big??
Well, considering VIC-20's specification - the demo cruches C64 into pieces.
And by the way - I am a fan of VIC-20's sound, I have even a chiptune album of Warlord and I listen to it often. This music is fine too.
rulez added on the 2007-09-12 20:53:31 by johny johny
can you make a music selector where we can listen to the songs in full on original hardware?

will the songs be uploaded on Nectarine btw ?

Tmb: all the tunes would not fit in ram, it would require a loader etc. Why not.

Faraday: probably :) (not all though)

"Well, considering VIC-20's specification - the demo cruches C64 into pieces."

not at all, thumbs up for the demo, but I must say this demo is far from being close to the technical level of the best c64 stuff.

the gfx tricks are really nice, but while having the same cpu at the same speed, displaying 1-2-3 hundred dots at 50 fps is quite weak, or table based effects with reduced size only due to ram limits? nope, technically not THAT awesome. sorry.
rulez added on the 2007-09-13 12:50:23 by Oswald Oswald
Oswald: 5kb of ram instead of 64kb does make a huge difference for table based effects though, more than differences of cpu speed ;)
added on the 2007-09-13 13:37:48 by keops keops
nice code and all but boring as a motherfucker.
and the only good track was pretty much the last one, or maybe the emulator was fucking up.
eitherway, its so damn boring i wouldnt ever want to watch this again, sorry guys.

Quite good, just wonder why is so long to load less than 5kb of data between each part (I assume it's packed ?).

Is this due to VIC floppy drive being very very slow ? Is it not possible to do fast loaders or something ?

however, i'm not really into this, i don't really appreciate chiptunes etc so ...
Cool demo, good music.

Some nice fx, and I like the music, but something that annoyed me was the abrupt end to tunes in places, rather than the nicer fading out which happened only in some parts. Kinda shocked you into the loading of the next part.
On the whole tho', some nice stuff.

Wow, wow and wow! Congratz guys! You rule! The chesszoom + musik with sampled drums was just adoreable... like the rest! Cool with unextended memory aswell.. :-) Hope that the original designers of the vic20 will see this running on their creation. I bet they wont belive it could be done! :-)

For those interested, 4 Mat made a 4k musicdisk featuring the uncut chiptunes from the demo : http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=34510

It also includes the source for the player, in case some people want to give Vic 20 a try :)

Hi all...We've updated the demo:

New Features:
-------------

-Fastloader: On the fly GCR decode (can be done faster I know was enough for the vc20)
-5 new 4mat tunes
-6 new screens
-two new effects from 4mat
-the end part has been
totally rewritten by 4mat
-three new effects from ultra
-All screens of ultra have been reworked to fade out clean
-Some of the screens got a facelift
-Samples and replay in the checkboard zoomer was updated. we recognised it's almost not hearable on real hardware.
-Fixed bugs

In two screens we are using the unconnected ram feature first used by viznut...


Starting:
--------

The demo comes with two different
starters on disk:


"omd.full"

Shows all effects old and new... So if you have some time left start this one. Runtime is almost 16 minutes...


"omd.new.parts"

If you fed up with the old effects you can run this one. Shows only the new effects. Except of intro and endpart. Runtime is almost 10 minutes...


i really hope it's working... and if possible watch on real hardware or emulator...

cheers ultra...

just use the normal download link... old and new version is included there

Very cool loading! Lovely new effects!

To rain on your parade a bit though, the new music tracks don't exactly compare to the originals, not even close :/. I'd kinda like an "omd.old.parts" version as well, but a superbly cool update regardless! One of my favorite proper oldskool demos.

I just realized that the deluxe version also misses all the puns of course, what a loss!

yup... unforunately no usage anymore...

but will be surely included in the next update ;) 2025

ah forgot to mention i guess... you need to activate true drive emulation in vice... otherwise the fastloader don't work....

The new version is fucking awesome.
added on the 2016-02-03 15:32:53 by Preacher Preacher
Cool new version! But why not make a completely new demo with the new content instead of adding it to an old demo? Scene needs more VIC20 releases! :)

It's about time I thumbed this up. It's always been one of my favourite VIC-20 demos, and with all the new stuff it's even more rad!

yes... i thought about that ... but some of the screens should have been included in the first version and well was an easy way to do something new without doing an entire new demo ;)
