THINGS - my little contribution for NAID 1996 intro compo..


LITTLE WORDS RELATED TO NAID 1996
    This intro didn't compete for the intro compo, we put it in the demo compo
    just to release it. The NAID organisers didn't put the deadline in the 
    NAID 1996 internet web homepage so many people, other than me didn't know
    anything and didn't compete for the intro compo. This is a BIG mistake they
    made this year but anyway.. The party itself was good but the mistake they
    made was major.. Anyway, some things have to be fixed for next edition..
    Anyway, we didn't have time to put our phong shading (not totally finished)
    and texture mapping (which is not optimized yet, 3 days are not enough to do
    all of this) and I don't feel like finishing them right now but for next 
    year. :) Another thing which was bad about NAID is the music compo.. They
    discarded most of the songs to keep 20 songs. Most of the 20 songs were 
    poored than the discarded ones. Last major thing to mention, the compos 
    were not prepared: forgot DOS4GW.EXE for Cubic Player, compos were delayed 
    (about 30 mins), etc.. Anyway enough words about the NAID..

SOME QUICK WORDS..
    I decided to write a little intro because at NAID 1995, there were only
    2-3 intros ready on time for the compo.. Since it was coded in 3 days
    the code is not very optimized.. Another thing is: it is written for FAST
    computer with FAST video card. I didn't have any intention to compete for
    a place, just to release something for fun.
