i remember this was one of the first demos i saw on pc. it doesnt work in dosbox though. if anyone get it to work a vidcap would be nice.
Does it run in Dosbox? I can't manage to run it but as I remember it was also hard to run on a real PC.
It doesn't work in DosBox because they cleverly put whitespace characters (0xFF) in some of the data file names. These get remapped to 0xA0 in Windows, and the EXE can't find them anymore. To remedy this, rename the following files, where "_" is a whitespace character and "ÿ" is alt-0255 (hold alt while entering numbers on right keypad):
"_OF.___" to "ÿOF.ÿÿÿ"
"__LIGHT.___" to "ÿÿLIGHT.ÿÿÿ"
"___BY.___" to "ÿÿÿBY.ÿÿÿ"
Presto, it works. Granted, it's not really that good a demo, but now it can be better remembered. :)
"_OF.___" to "ÿOF.ÿÿÿ"
"__LIGHT.___" to "ÿÿLIGHT.ÿÿÿ"
"___BY.___" to "ÿÿÿBY.ÿÿÿ"
Presto, it works. Granted, it's not really that good a demo, but now it can be better remembered. :)
phoenix: thanks. your method worked. i didnt see that the filenames were borked.

Hmm,. this is the first Valhalla demo and even it's not as good as their next ones, still it had some parts and original effect ideas I liked (like the crystal colorblended 3d bars or bouncing balls and others).
