Maybe you can start already by stopping writing useless stuff that adds no value to us, and instead start making something of interesting, like for example making music, or even better, a demo for ZGameEditor, what do you think?

I can't make JACK but music. I was just asking about FL Studio and then it became something like harassment.

Eh, this isn't harassment, at least what most people are doing, just stop posting constantly and a lot of it will go away purely on that.

It depends on what you mean for "using FL Studio for demos".

To make music, it's 100% possible. I even sample most of the sounds for my ProTracker modules from FL Studio.

To make graphics and shaders? Well, I think that FL Studio has something called ZGameEditor Visualizer, which is based on ZGameEditor. It might be even possible to make "Bad apple!!" on it.


But that's Not a demo :P

Please fucking tell me whats a demo, how to make it, and if it even will be a demo.

ML: demo is obviously something that pushes widely understood "demoscene agenda" forward (only known to small group who call themselves demoscene "elite"). It's not so much anymore about playing with tech (oldschool, low-end, high-end, or latest and greatest forbidden tech), but about sending the right message to the right audience approved by the right authorities.

...and if people don't like your demo you go on a crusade against the "demoscene elite" with it's "demoscene agenda" and try to make everybody as miserable as possible.
At least that seems to be tomkhs playbook.

While "elite" playbook is to ridicule everyone rising concerns and dissent.

Loops were considered "lame" by many. However people like Stardust just triggered loops mostly and were very popular

It could be worse. I sometimes use soundtrap for prototyping (free tier). Maybe there are better web-based editors, openDAW?

Fruity Loops or… using loops.
And triggering loops live or?

Confusing.

were condidered lame by demoscene. nobody cared on hip-hop and house scenes or people just didnt know and thought how "great" and "skilled" stardust, cassius and daft punk are.
it's weird situation because i'm biggest fan of filtered house and boom bap on earth but i still consider it lame ;)
the scene always had funny assumptions, how many sceners back in the 2000s told me that mp3 were defacto lamer than mods because you had "all of that in the DAW for free", they obviously did not really know why, probably repeating something their musos had told them.

Reusing a loop from a sample cds is lame.
Reusing samples from sample cds is lame (this one is funny because some people in the scene do be digging into the sample cds like hungry raccoons)

The art of samplign is chopping and mangling until it's barely recognisable.
But I do respect Portishead a lot… and yet… here we are again.

YMMV
