scrollers 4 life yo!

I love the effects. They are very well executed. The dual screen with so many scrollers on top makes it a bit too crowded. Each effect (or at least most of them) at the bottom would have merited it's own screen.

I really hope you finish the other project. Pity it wasn't released at bp. If this isn't good enough...

Wow, it's quite surprising and interesting when good coders from one platform do transition to a new one for the first time. And here it's done very well. I like the presentation with the scrollers in upper screen and various switching effects you can watch for hours in lower screen. It's the little details in movement (how logos appear or the elasticity of vector when it morphs) that also makes it neat. There is even a BITS joke at the beginning :)

I once said there's not enough scrollers nowadays, well now there is (and i'm fooled to contribute too). This isn't mindblowing but i think it's very good for 32k.

Holy shit! I almost freaked out with that jerky scroller and the BITS thing! :)

Classic effects all executed really nicely. I love all the scroll ramblings too.

nice.

Disable the AGA chipset as stated in the nfo (it was tested successfully on a 68060 machine too that way), the intro was made to run on a 512k Amiga 500,

Nice to see a proper A500 release again, thumb up that alone :). I must say that the combination of scrollers and effects all on a single screen made it all look rather crowded, though.

Oldschool ! The bits joke at the beginning reminded me of the classic Boulder intro from Tristar.

That was the point, fast code almost free from design.

Yes, i was tempted to write something like "BAAAHHH QUARTEX AGAIN !" at first :D

I added a video (5 minutes only with framerate at 50hz so it stutters but the machine itself runs the intro at full framerate).

Although I can't help but wonder, if this is an intro then why can't I exit it with LMB (or anything other than reset).

For sure feelings like "prod are with potencial", but personally for me it bad designed. Maybe it's fun, retro and so on, but if remove half of screen with all these words, and make effects for all the screen, its for sure will be better.

I liked the bit with the scrollers, and am probably not the only one. Remove that and you don't have the demo(intro) which I enjoyed so much anymore. It's all a question of personal taste. If I could give it another thumb up then I would.
a bit too boring

funny comments NOT made by SoLo2 or BITS Club,
scroll font with copper color reflections

TOP half: drunken vertical bars, multi scrollers

BOTTOM half: "NEURAL" logotype graphic,
distorted, 3D, checkers,
copper plasma,
distorting vertical rubber band with scroll,
shade bobs,
3D filled polygons figures, rotating, water reflection, morphing,
endless bobs,
thin plasmas

nice little mod music, great samples, reverb

cant you make a 2nd version that is aga fixed and has another more enjoyable tune?
added on the 2009-04-20 20:26:22 by elkmoose elkmoose
It works on my CD32 and on Mice's 68060 Amiga so i assume it IS AGA fixed (also there was a silly bug which made it crash on 512k machines but i fixed that too).

About the tune: i think it fits & it's good for it's size + that the only one i could obtain.
I don't ask music around anymore because i usually receive none anyway. I was lucky that DJ Joge had an old (1994) module laying around otherwise i couldn't have released the intro to begin with.

Did you try to download the real fixed version
(http://pagesperso-orange.fr/franck.charlet/retrointro.lha) ?

Such crash could eventually be caused by the replay routine (the supervisor stack wasn't relocated) but i fixed that.

Maybe it could work by not using any SetPatch or such tools but if nothing else does then temporary disable that accelerator card and voila.
Otherwise blame the usual suspect: Mice/Brs for inaccurate report ;D
added on the 2009-04-23 02:39:50 by hitchhikr hitchhikr
hitchhikr: i had the same prob as elkmoose. just "disabling the card" is not a great option for many of us with SCSI drives attached to those cards ;-)

anyhow, booted it from floppy with the accelerator disabled and it played nicely. guss it could be Oxyron pather conflict, or syspatch, etc. usual suspects :/
