MAINSTREAM
RELEASE VERSION
INF's first 64kb intro ever!
ABOUT MAINSTREAM:
────────────────┘
We just wanted to make something for the Online'96. Well, here
it is. Our very first 64kb intro ever. Nothing much, but it's
our contrib for the 64kb intro compo at Online'96. It won, but
that doesn't mean a thing since the average Online'96 attender
were gamelamers.
So what's this "release version"? Actually it looks 100% like the
compo version and doesn't even support more soundcards (sorry, we
didn't manage to find any other player than GP15 that could play
the module right). The only difference is that the decruncher is
fairly more stabile than the compo version (due to lack of bytes
in the compo version).
LEGAL BABBLE:
────────────┘
Copy it, spread it, eat it, do what ever you want with this intro.
However all the files have to be included in their ORIGINAL form.
No money can be charged for this intro either.
Disclaimer: if this cute little intro should blow up your computer,
INF can NOT be held lieable. You run this intro at your own
risk and even if the result is a nuclear meltdown, it's non
of our business.
FILES INCLUDED:
──────────────┘
The following files should be included. If not, delete it and
get a descent copy of this shit:
- MAINSTRM.EXE - The intro. Gee... amazing, a exe file!
- MAINSTRM.NFO - Info file, you're reading it now.
- FILE_ID.DIZ - The file_id.diz.
MACHINE REQUIREMENTS:
────────────────────┘
To run this intro, you need a machine with at least
- 386sx, 486dx2 or faster recommended
- Math Co-processor required
- VGA card; VLB or PCI highly recommended
- 400kb of hard disk space
- GUS needed for sound (otherwise there will be no sound, sorry)
- 565kb of free DOS memory.
BTW: Please note that this intro matches The Gathering'96 64kb
*compo* rules! :) Also note that the computer used as compo
machine at Online'96 was a Pentium 133mhz, 50mb edo and
512kb pipeline cache. You should thank us for not making a
pentium based intro out of Mainstream. :)
TROUBLE SHOOTING:
────────────────┘
Q: The intro hangs/don't want to run!
A: You've done something wrong.
FEATURING:
─────────┘
The longest infofile for any intro ever!

isn't as good at it should be:

party were non-sceners. How inspiring!
