Innocence Slideshow - 95% version
-----------------------------------
Welcome to this little info file about 'Innocence'. It's sTYLe (the coder)
writing here.
Well, why 95% you might ask. Let me try to explain. Bad news first, there
will NEVER be a 100% version of this slideshow, since I've deleted all sources
(Length of Main-Source without any includes: 159.277 Bytes) a few seconds
ago, because Zoltrix told me a few days ago, that the slideshow project has
been cancelled and I'm kinda angry about that. I started to code the slide
in June 1999 and at the beginning I was really motivated, because I really
liked (and still like) Wade's marvellous pictures. In July '99 I had a
hd-crash caused by Thrill Kill (Hi Ferox :D) and lost over 25o MB of Sources
including the Innocence Source. But coders never give up ;) and so I started
to code from scratch again. Wade promised to draw a font for the text writer
but sadly it never reached my hands. Same for the music, Blue Silence wanted
to compose a new module, but as with the font, I never got it...
Furthermore I never got a real help from the group, so often I asked for
ideas etc. but ... 'Silent screams, causing no reaction' [Project Pitchfork
rules!]. I had to do all the slavework myself, f.e. I had to come up with an
effect for each picture and for me being just a coder this was the most time
consuming (and hardest) part. Ok, it's not the code that makes a slideshow
good, it's the pictures of course and Wade did a quite good job to say the
least, but I think that crappy code can ruin the best slide and so I tried my
best to make it as good as possible, thinking out effects for each picture
etc. And now, after all the work I had with it, the whole project is
cancelled... This is something I can't accept, therefore I'm releasing it on
my own! I decided to release it under the FACTiON label though, because it
was originally meant to be a FACTiON release. As said before, this is not
the real final version, so there are some parts missing/incomplete. Here's
a small checklist:
Language selector part: incomplete, motivation lost!
Greetings part: completely missing, no support from the group,
motivation lost!
Music loops too early: it's not the final tune, no support from the
musician :(
If you find any bugs -- bad luck, because they'll never be fixed!
Ok, enough crap talk from me, I don't want to bore you anymore, enjoy
Wade's pictures!
Greets and messages from sTYLe are flying out to:
Wade: Too bad you've left the scene :( Great pixel work dude! Btw,
what about the Christina Applegate piccie you promised to
draw? :)
Finally you got your slideshow you've been waiting for
so long. If you're reading this, please contact me!
Zoltrix: I hope you won't kill me for releasing the slide, but I had to
do it! Anyway, always nice to chat with you, even though you
don't accept dcc-chats anymore :(
Galahad: Where are you hiding these days? I miss your releases! Seems
like another old-school legend is lost :(
Sniper: Still working on that 'Apano Sin' release? :-P Hope to
meet/chat ya soon!
Adkins: 'It will be ready this weekend for sure.' :D Cracking that
f*cking 'Apano Sin' was a really neat experience :) Do ya
still wanna steal my source? HEHE :P And btw, 'Shut up,
he doesn't come from japan, coz it was Spider/D-Tect!' :-O
Thanks for hardware support! A5oo powah forevah ;)
B/dCS: What about that DCS musicdisk? ;) Enjoy your time in the U.K.!
rAVER/dCS: Joymoney is the most expensive country in the world, at least
when it comes to GSM-phones :D
Some more greets go out to
Saint 4Play Ixxy Thaler pSB Digiman Axl^HF Boheme Nighthawk
and to all that I may have forgotten!
This release is dedicated to the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in
my life! Nice to have you back in my life after 5 years!
I really hope, I won't lose you for a 3rd time...
This one is for you, sweet Jacky!
'It took me long to recognize, what's behind those empty eyes...'
Contact me for any reason at: sTYLe_xTREK@GMX.de
P.S.: To say it with Galahad's words: This is NOT an (official) FACTiON
release! [I don't even know, if FACTiON is still alive or not...]
Peace to all of you! Enjoy your life, you only have one!
