So shiny ! Great effort on HighRes/DOS/SSE !

Great visuals!

Crazy ambitious! I wonder if there is an actual DOS system that can run it >30fps.

Thank you for comments in the source!

After Chrome and Chrome2 finally the mission is completed. youtube
Good stuff!

Smooth! What resolution does it run in?

VESA res is 640x480, but every 4th (rather every 3rd) pixel is traced only, the others are interpolated.

Great! And good to see some 1ks or more than 256b, where there is still potential from the tiny size coders

Runs smooth with sound - as is - on my Samsung R519 =)
See capture (warning, contains an actual cat^^)
I think this is an excellent intro. Perfectly bridging the gap between old and new school.

Great balls of 1k!

winner!

That's a very cool intro with another nice soundtrack in EinKlang again ;).

I see a lot of room for shader-free complex 3D stuff in 1k.

Now it looks like 1k intros contain as much content as 4k did in the 90's (not only yours, but in general). Or asked the other way round: Why did you need 4k before? ^^

My 512b JS intro is also a sequel to maybe the first metaballs in <=4K. But why did I need 3K? ;)

Impressive!
why wasn't this in the 1k compo? Would've won there. Yeah its Freedos....so what?
rulez added on the 2020-10-16 19:03:55 by tFt tFt
awesome balls and great music, what else? :)

Nice

Only just watched back the assembly 1K intro compo to find out this cool entry was not included in the 1K compo but in the wild instead ;-(

Very sorry to hear you got robbed on this. Given the quality of the rest of the 1K intros shown, this would have easily won the compo imho.

Shiny stuff, quite nice tune.

cool balls

Crazy production 1k in DOS
and hella amazing
rulez added on the 2020-10-18 12:23:29 by Queen_Luna Queen_Luna
Sucks that this is wild. Great production.
rulez added on the 2020-10-18 13:35:45 by neoman neoman
This is quite likely the best DOS 1k I've seen. Definitely should have been the winner of the 1k compo.

Even in the real wild compo, this should have won. My entry was utter garbage compared to this.

A whole different ball game! Really like the scene with the blue balls.

What superogue said. If the audience fails to give this one the proper recognition, i will do it myself =)
added on the 2020-10-18 14:49:34 by HellMood HellMood
It should have entered the 1k compo!

Chrome Revenge is a SOLID 1kb DOS prod that touches a really different chord than the other 1kb. I could see it rank pretty high in the 1k compo!

good

What does this actually need to run?
I've tried it on a 2.6 GHz Athlon XP system (SSE1). Used both the AMD and Intel executables (and the 'Capture' version), with a bunch of GPUs from AMD/ATI, Nvidia, SiS, and even 3Dfx.

In all cases I either get a black screen with music playing, or it just sticks at the DOS prompt and the music plays.

Any ideas where I'm going wrong?

Everyone's talking about the balls, how about the music!!! It's simple, but the melody is catchy and I actually caught myself whistling the tune long afterwards :) It's so much better than just sending code to the sound output and calling it a day.

It needs at least SSE 4.1, we play with dot product instruction (DPPS) and more. So get a PC with a CPU made in 2007 or later.
Looks very clean and those reflections and shadows look correct to me. Considering only every 3rd pixel is raytraced I would think there would be more obvious artefacts.

Great stuff. The platform is a bit obscure though.

Here is a very detailed technical write up about the intro: The long journey to 1k real-time ray-tracing

Thanks to HellMood and Trixter for their help!!!
WOW this is a DOS, high res, pc-speaker ?! The first time I saw it I thought it was for Windows using GPU! LOL Impressive! Thanks for the detailed technical write :)
