This one was produced to beat the sh*t out of reds at fYanica party, last year. And we succeeded. It was written in Pascal, it runs on more platforms (MOS, Win32, Linux), but it was designed to run on a Pegasos, with any 3dfx card at least. And don't forget: Blue is better. Seriously. "

csarli: troll:))

personally i love demos! the best demos are the amiga ones for sure! i've seen many demos for atari, dreamcast, ps2, xbox, etc. and for win but they dont even close to an amiga demo :) i really like amiga ppc demos, like mwi prods (they're the best!:) but its true, that THE system for the demoscene is the classic amiga (and the c64, they making awesome things on that prehistoric machine nowadays!:).

i think thats why the demoscene is not active on the pega/mos - sceners dont see it intresting, coz its like an old pc with ppc. the operating system doesnt really matter for a demo when you hit the hardware to make miracles:)

hope we'll se a few (a lot:) mos demos in the future btw:)

@ Chain-Q

I have some flickering on some parts of the demo (I have this also on some old amiga demos from encore like plus) on my radeon 9250.

Also FateFitsKarma from MaWi doesnt really work. Its loads and runs for 1 second like in fastforward. Any hint?

@ Chain-Q

I did some tests today with different gfx cards and now I am a bit confused.

BlueBox:

Radeon 9250: flicker
Radeon 8500: flicker
Radeon 7000: no flicker

Encore/Plus! and Encore/SerialInterference:

Radeon 9250: flicker (only 15bit mode; 16/24bit mode too slow)
Radeon 8500: flicker (only 15bit mode; 16/24bit mode too slow)
Radeon 7000: less flicker, nearly ok (only 16bit mode; 15/24bit mode too slow)

It seems there are some problems with the gfx/3d drivers or why is there such a different?
