About the intro <====================================================
The intro requires
An Atari 520ST with 512kb RAM and a colour monitor
it also supports
Atari ST, STE, TT and Falcon030
it has been tested on
Atari 1040 STf TOS 1.02
Atari Mega/STE 4 TOS 2.06 + NVDI
Atari Falcon030 TOS 4.04 / MiNT and N.AES + NVDI 4.11
it should also run on STEem engine
Unfortunately, it is terribly hard to synchronize the
main effect for any processor type and speed which might
result in unsmooth movement.
On the MegaSTE, i decided to switch off the cache during the
intro because it is irregularly updated during the main
effect which resulted in very unsmooth movement. It should
be switched to the initial value when exiting the intro.
Falcon owners should turn off accelerators.
The intro will run in any case but probably not display
very smooth movement.
