³ Introduction ³ ³
³ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ ³
³ Here it is, the official release of the 1st prize winner of the Takeover ³
³ '98 intro compo. No changes have been made to the actual code whatsoever. ³
³ "But the party version had no music!" I can hear some people scream now. ³
³ The point is it did. It just didn't play since the organizers had the ³
³ brilliant idea of running the 4k's on the computer with just a GUS (no SB) ³
³ installed, and as we could all hear GUS is not that good at playing adlib ³
³ in native mode, now is it? They had planned to rerun the intro WITH music ³
³ during the prize ceremony (that was, if they could get the adlib to work ³
³ at all), but since the prize ceremony was already delayed a LOT, that did ³
³ not happen. Well, too bad. I guess I would have liked to hear the music ³
³ on a >2000watts music system, but hey.... the party still ruled! ³
³ ³
³ ³
³ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿ ³
³ Manual ³ ³
³ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ ³
³ Oooh, it's soooo very difficult. Go the the right directory, type PDREAMS, ³
³ slam ENTER, and tataaaa! It will work! No vesa needed, no windows wanted ³
³ (although it will probably run just fine with it), adlib compatible sound- ³
³ card optional. And if you are really starting to hate my cute little text- ³
³ mode intro, you can even press ESC and skip it. No other parts of the ³
³ intro are skippable, though. ³
³ ³

³ Lyrics ³ ³
³ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ ³
³ Here are the full lyrics that are shown during the intro. They are not ³
³ exactly brilliant, but creating good lyrics with only 10 characters to ³
³ spend per line is not very easy you know! ³
³ ³
³ "Fuck the people who think they're cool, ³
³ we are the ones who totally rule!" ³
³ - Bookie ³
³ "Close your eyes open your mind... ³
³ experience the ultimate purpleness" ³
³ - Claws ³
³ "Rscpt 2: C64 fans, IK+ ppl, Bookie, Ryo-Ohki, ³
³ Hugo, Cloak, Deadline, Rogue, Chippy,Sweex, ³
³ Sentinel, Ritz, Inside ³
³ Sorry 2: Exam ppl" ³

³ Credits ³ ³
³ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ ³
³ Hmmmzz. So I guess this part can be handled pretty fast. All coding by ³
³ little old me. Except for the music player, which is ofcourse done by ³
³ PSI/future crew. And some lyrics by other tuhb-members, as mentioned ³
³ above. ³
³ ³
³ ³
³ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿ ³
³ Source code ³ ³
³ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ ³
³ Well, if you want to lay your hands on the source code for this intro, ³
³ you will just have to download Tuhbzine 4 (due 3 weeks after the Takeover ³
³ party). I will put the full source-code in the zine (exportable), and even ³
³ give a short description of the effects I used. ³
³ ³
³ ³
³ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿ ³
³ The Future ³ ³
³ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ ³
³ You might ask what the future will bring. Well, I am already working quite ³
³ hard designing Purple Dreams 2. It will contain effects that are totally ³
³ different from those in Purple Dreams (that's why I don't mind releasing ³
³ all sources) and hopefully some nice designish elements. I just hope that ³
³ when I release it (maybe at Wired?) there is some competition, since that ³
³ would make the compo's a lot more exciting. So what are you waiting for? ³
³ Start working on your 4k intro release now! The 4k scene shall bloom! ³
