Nice one indeed … But I guess ignorant non-coders like myself simply fail to pay full tribute to its complexity .. So though it looks nice it s certainly not even close to a 10/10 from a design point of perspective *fail*cough* .. nice music though which suits the intro very well!
ahh this one.. perfect scroller (within the best i ever seen) .the tune also is very nice..but as scheisslogin i dont like the logo.. anyway great conversion!!!!!
Not vector at all. Haven’t looked, but probably the same as certain sphere-mapped scrollers (like the one by Rave) – precalc blit, CPU-blit, or plot code (several KBs of it) according to a formula, once. The code is static – each 20-30 instructions is responsible for setting a pixel shape at a certain coord if scrollpixel is 1 – the only thing that changes is the ones and zeroes from the scroll buffer as the text scrolls through it. Any slight animation in curving you see is modulo/shift waves (like for some sine scrollers) and color waves with the copper.… Read more »
how was it done then? enlighten me.
i dont think it is vector, there would have to be too many points to do it realtime. my best guess is a lot of animation of little squares, precalced after some 3d sines, and then plotting them realtime.
there could be some modulo wobbling going on aswell.
Yeh.. I really loved Mr.Mega Mind’s scroll effects. One of my all time favourite coders. :love Now, I think I better check how he did that scroller.. 😀
I was always wondering how this was coded on Amiga… if someone has time to msg me just the idea behind it… 😉
Anyway, fabulous intro, I always loved MMM’s code and Madonna Freak’s logo is genious ! 🙂
Ugly screen, yet awesome scroll routine!
One of the best cracktros ever 🙂
Great remakee as usual, Thanks.
Respect!! Great Remake.

the scroller-routine is really extraordinary. i don’t like music and sausage-logo
Totally redone from scratch.
@StingRay and mr.spiv 😀
cool, thanks for the explanation. I was never able to program it myself back in the day.

very nice work.. love it!

So stingray.. which one of us was right about the scroller? 😀
Looks like some vectorscroller distorted using some tables. Anyway, Mr.MegaMind ruled indeed! One of the best scrollers ever!

Very nice..
MrHoward:
I have no clue how the scrolltext routine is coded.. but it could be vector and some nice $dff0102 and colorbars in the copperlist
yeah! it was at least on toyota celica gt rally. nice tune by maestro.
Rockin’ !
I love the tune here, even if it’s an incomplete version !
The scroll is amazing.
But I’m not a fan of the pdx logo…
Anyway, very good one !

Brilliant, one of the coolest text-routs ever… Mr Mega Mind/Dexion ruled! And really great "sausages" logo by Madonna Freak/Crionics also… legendary.
Yeah!!!! perfect conversion of that very cool cracktro done by Paradox :love
The scrolling mode is fab! :):):)
