name : M (The name is only one character long ON PURPOSE :-) ) authors : Bill Kotsias (fantasia@hol.gr) size : 1020 bytes (argh! at last!) needs : MODE 28, "StringLib-" and "Percussion-Snare" voices (provided by RiscOS). SA RiscPC seriously recommended! descr. : 3d infinite texture mapped floor + 8 (!) channels music ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Run the demo by double-clicking it or entering its name at the CLI. It won`t work if you >LOAD it from BASIC and >RUN it. (*) There is one unique thing about this demo: have you noticed how "mute" 1Kb demos seem? Well, "M" proudly presents itself with 8 channels of music! :-))) In fact, what I wanted in the first place was to add the music in DCC2X, but that just wouldn`t be possible without major modifications. So, the 3d engine is still the same but I had to remove "interactivity" (the demo runs by itself) and texture generation (I hope the memory of your computer looks (!) as good as mine does :-) ). Fitting the lot in 1020 bytes was ***tough*** so, please, excuse the absence of "real" graphics. The music stops "growing" when the "rythm" (percussion) "enters". (Lots of ""!) * * * Note to non-RiscOS 3.7 users. If this demo runs on your computer, it is Pervect you should thank. If it doesn`t, it is me to blame. :-) I would like to express my sincere gratefulness to Pervect. My demos didn`t fully comply to CC#2 rules, and as I didn`t have time to fix them (uni exams), Pervect decided to debug and fix them himself. I don`t know of many people that would do this..! SOURCE CODE: The source runs as it is, it needs to load "floor" and "Note_Data", so remember to set the DIR. *If you wish to use the floor code in your *PD* program, please inform me* *IF you wish to use the floor code for commercial purposes, you _must_ contact me first* Files included in this archive are: M ; The demo itself ReadMe ; This textfile More.SourceM ; Source code (runs as it is) More.floor ; 3d floor compiled code for mode 28 The full source can be found in DCC2X demo... More.Note_Data ; Music score More.Sound ; Plays only the music Contact details : fantasia@hol.gr ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- (*) Prevect`s message quoted : "First entering BASIC from the command line and then LOADing the program /won't/ work as the environment string (that my loading trick uses) doesn't contain the path (BASIC -quit "ADFS:$..... M_usicdemo.M") in that case, but only BASIC (BASIC)."
