FUSED - Win95 Demo for Assembly '97 Finland Helsinki

NOTE: DOS VBE2.0 version will be released very soon. So one does not
 	have to put up with wind that blows. :)

Fused runs internally at 320x200x16bpp which will explain the 
chunk-o-rama(tm) experienced when viewing in high resolution modes. It
should be noted that the fewer applications running concurrently the better 
the performance. The low resolution Direct Draw video modes seem to work 
on very few cards, but the 640x480 Direct draw and the GDI modes will have 
a 99.9% chance of running correctly.. tho that does not mean fast. If you 
use the GDI modes it is advisable to set you're display to a 16bpp color 
mode else you will experience poor frame rates.

The demo is not exactly technically up to date.. the effects are rather old 
and easy, tho the aim was to create an oldschool techno track demo, the 
result is far from the initial aim... 

Windows95 is far from the idea platform, Fused uses no hardware 
acceleration(the screen blt might but not always) and as such performs 
quite poorly on anything below a P120. This is quite sad as I am willing 
to bet the dos port will run at atleast 30fps on a P100. I couldn't care 
less what other people might think about this... this is the future whether 
you like it or no(i hate it!) and as such there is little choice on the 
direction we are headed. Unless you wish use un-ortodox platforms, and 
live on $0.50ea instant noodles :). 

Well that's enough philosophical discussion, Raw Arts is basically a one 
production group. We all are parts of other groups or no group etc... and 
will move on to other groups/productions.

If you have any questions/flames about Win95 stuff feel free to contact me. 
I might continue where Denthor left off in his windows tutes ;) if the 
audience is there.
