This is my first attempt at a proper demo.  Sorry about the mainly 2d effects
I know that I personally prefer 3d effects you can do much more with them.
  Anyqay the next one will contain some poly's (I promise).  It is a mish mash
  of my last three months or so of demo coding.  (Thats all the experiance I
  have of VGA).

Okay here goes
    I can code the putpixels, lines and suchlike myself but for the sake of
    speed and because I don't know any assembler I am using the ones from the
    later Denthor tutorials.  The sound routines are from the PCGPE ][
    collection.  The algorithms are what I can understand from what is in
    the tutorials and the PCGPE and elsewhere (ftp.cdrom.com etc) I have
    coded them myself and adapted them for speed.  I have to that DARKMAN of
    Genetix for his helpful hints.  I also thank the people who sent me info
    on plasma's about changing to lookup tables and fixed point.  It was
    mainly the fixed point as TRUNCS or ROUNDS take a long time :-(.  The
    only reals used in the demo are for calculating the angle for the sines.
    Which means that a maths copro should not be too neccesary (SP I think)

Greetings to
  Valhalla - Solstice is one of if not the best demo I have seen.
    Snowman - For his helpful publishings in PCF (I don't remember seeing
      that you used a lookup table in the mag) I had to wade through lots
      of C to find it (I am a PASCAL person but know a little C).
  Triton   - CD2 is also very good (I can't get sound on CD I (SB PRO)
    I get sound for a while (title screen) then it goes until
    the music changes and then I get a little sound again before it
    goes.
  Darkman  - For being very patient with my file sending.
  Denthor and ASPHYXIA - For the VGA tutorials. (where are ASPHYXIA now)
  Nooon - I think that your demos (Stars and No) are some of the most
    entertaining that I have seeen.


Does anyone know how to get DJGPP (C program) to work without windows it needs
DPMI.  There is another error but I can't remeber what it is.  I have yet to
get anything to compile for it.  Also can anyone help me with a fractal routine.
The one in the demo is one that I transferred from a calculator and it is sloooow.
It is Mandelbrot using equations

x := x^2 + y^2 + c
y := 2 * y * x + c

I think thats about it.  Any comments mail me at
                Gareth.Harper@Onyxnet.CO.UK

See Ya, Spansh.

Oh yeah almost forgot

  way shape or form I claim no responsibility, you use it at your own risk.
  ie If you type 'deltree /y c:\*.*'  after you run it, it's not my fault
  either.

Also you may copy this program so long as all the files are with it and are
not altered in any way.  You can also pass it on to anyone you like as long
as no profit (who would buy this) is made from it.

Files are

BIOSTEXT.DAT 3776  Bytes
SPANSH.EXE   20668 Bytes
SPANSH.NFO   3329  Bytes
FILE_ID.DIZ  47    Bytes

Any bugs, mail me.
  
The BIOSTEXT.DAT is taken from the Denthor set of tutorials and before
using it you should ask them.  I could not get a reply from
  denthor@beastie.cs.und.ac.za
So I am sorry if you did not want it to be used.  Mail me if you are
concerned.
