- 64k Windows We Were ! by Razor 1911 [web]
- Nobody said it had to be DOS.
Point is... these oldskool demos were cool because they had the tightest code you could imagine. They did things on the old machines that totally amazed everyone.
Doing the same stuff 10 years later, with 3d accelerators, CPUs that are 1000x as fast, and STILL getting worse framerates than the originals, does not strike me as 'oldskool'.
I think the word 'lame' is better.
To me, oldskool spirit is pushing the machine to the limits.
This just... sucks.
Not because it's Windows... But because you can do this stuff, in Windows, on a 486, in software. Piece of cake.
With these system requirements, they should have done more, a LOT more.
The flag-scroller part doesn't even run in 1 frame on my XP1800+. SHAME ON YOU!
Again, that is NOT oldskool. That is lame. - isokadded on the 2002-12-03 20:06:19

You know, 99% of that demo has been done before, on A500...
Which means:
68000, 7 MHz
No 3D acceleration
512 kb memory
Learn to code, or give up. - sucksadded on the 2002-12-02 11:28:34
- demo Amiga AGA Nexus-7 by Andromeda [web]
- Very good
One of those early accelerated A1200 demos.
Some really nice effects in here. - rulezadded on the 2002-11-06 20:01:28
- demo MS-Dos Holistic by Cascada
- Wow, this was added only now?
This is a really good demo people, one of those hi-tech objectshows.
Does some nice texturemapped objects, gouraudshading, and speed and accuracy were good for its time.
Shame it crashes on 'fast' PCs (I think you need an actual 486 to run the entire demo, my Pentium didn't work anymore). - rulezadded on the 2002-11-03 05:01:55

- demo Windows takaveto by Unique [web] & Matt Current [web]
- I wonder why bilinear filtering is disabled... (WinXP, GF2GTS, Det 30.82)
Is that a bug, or is that done on purpose for reasons I don't understand? - isokadded on the 2002-10-20 15:05:51
