BANDWAGON: EL�K��N VAPAUS
=========================
Came 3rd on the Plutonium'98 demo
competition held in Loviisa, Finland
3.-5.7.98.
Required and recommended:
- MSX1/VDP1/PSG/DOS1/64k
Usage:
- type VAPAUS at the command prompt
Yeah, another travesty as a result
of working like hell for too short
a period. I still like it and some
other people admit doing so too,
I doubt if the MSX2-puritanists
will. I would appreciate if you
dropped me a letter with some
comments, but that's seldom happened
before although I have asked.
This is actually the bugfixed version
I wrote once I learned that the demo
hung up on the screen change in part 2
on some machines. I was before using a
BIOS-call and now I change the screen
myself, I hope that won't arise new
problems with other MSX-brands.
By the way, please try to view this
with a TV or a videoscreen, that's
the way it was intended to. A monitor
gives just too much focus and spoils
most of the effects.
And in case you didn't notice, press
and hold space to exit the last part.
You can also utterly spoil the music
sync and skip fx in normal parts too
with the space bar.
Featuring:
- multicolour plasma in a 32x64 window
in Screen 2.
- a 64x64-bumpmap in Screen 2.
- a repetive screenwobbler in Screen 1
- some interference patterns in
Screen 1, some of them in
fake-Screen 2 (SCR2 modebit turned
on).
- striped and texturemapped cones
in Screen 1.
- 256x192 graphics.
- sampled sequences in 8 Khz.
- bleepy PSG-music in glorius
three tones+one noise.
- the usual amount of bad, flashy
music syncs.
