Fear by LaSerDance

This document contains information about Fear (-a one man project-).
Fear is shareware ... => means you're not to use it for commercial purpose

part1: The StarWars-scroller
----------------------------

Well, I took one of the fonts that came with the 'Demomaker v?'but it's a 
shame there are 15 colors in the font so I couldn't fade out as smooth as 
I would have liked to......
Concept and (fast!) 386+ coding by LaserDance.

part2: Plasma-breakout with magnifying glass
--------------------------------------------

I got a table out of a source (from pelusa's fake-intro) and rearranged it
to make it a real fast code (again 386+ 32-bit code).
Concept and coding (offcourse) by LaserDance.

part3: Vectorball and box morfing and merging
---------------------------------------------

This one was (I think) a great concept !
If you turn on you monitor's brightness you might see that BRRB gives a
different color from BRRW (B[lue], R[ed], W[hite]).
That means that you can see the blue part in the back of the scene trough
the rest of the parts .... It gave me a lot of color-calculations and a
minor headache but hey, It worked !
And offcourse 386+ 32-bit code by LaserDance.

part4: BallScroll
-----------------

The Future Crew once said that scroller suck (PANIC) but I think this one's
real cute.
I wrote a special routine so that the scroll can easily be changed by a table
and you can get lots of different effects in your scroll (like the turned
around parts and the ball-like shapes).I used the same routine for the text
piece of the end-part.
The code ..... (-guezz what and by who-).

part5: Vectors trough a chessboard 
----------------------------------

After making part 3 this was real easy.
And that's all there is to know about it .......
except offcourse the coding ....... blah blah blah blah ......

part6: Bitmap rotating (and magnifying glass)
---------------------------------------------

OK it's the same glass as in part2 but I liked to show that there isn't any
need of switching graphic-modes between a glass routine and a bitmap-rotation
routine (as in second reality).The reason I clipped it was because of all
poor 386 owners out there that wouln't get it smooth otherwise.
This time there was no need for 32-bit instructions (I believe) so I guess
this is the only part that would run on a 286 but I can asure you it wouldn't
for speed-problems.
Concept and code by Laserdance.

part7: Plasma-like lines 
--------------------------

This one I created a few days before the Bizarre party.
There isn't much to say about it, except that all movements and
color-refreshes are done random, so the real routine is infinite.

part8: Virtual-reality Tunnel
-----------------------------

During my latest experiments on virtual-reality I programmed this tunnel-
racing and I liked it so much that I decided to put it in the intro.
I used a lot of 32-bit instructions in this baby and I guess I could have
made it a lot easier (without all the virtual-reality formula's) but it
workes and I think it runs smooth enough.

part9: The end-part
-------------------

If you've read all about the previous parts you'll know by now which 
routines form this scene so I won't bother you anymore with the info.
Except the info about the concept and code (<=LaserDance?).

Ok then there's allways the fabulous music.
I really liked composing them on the HscTracker and I hope you enjoyed'em...
The second song is covered from Bobby O.'s 1982 hit "She has a way".

So 8 parts of code and 4 songs ... all in less than 64K !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd like to dedicate this intro to my friend + Michel Meurink +
                                                 1972-1991
