it even had music in 2003!
Like most other 4k's of that time too... - isokadded on the 2012-09-22 11:52:15

- "Die Software wird echt hyper" = auto thumb down. Sound quality is crap anyway.

- demo Windows Struct by Outracks [web]
- "Too much of the same" for me but still quite enjoyable because of the really nice music. Thus thumb up.

- WTF, there is complete Assember book (written by Manfred Leidorf, RIP) in that intro (vertical scroller in the middle of the screen)! :D The VW sign used as O in the logo is another WTF. :D

- Super cool intro. Nice to see something different than the usual ray marchers. And I really like the music too, fits perfectly.

Wrong. Libraries are placed on disk because they are not needed during the boot-up process (up until the boot volume is mounted). That does not make them any less important for the system as a whole.
Which implies that all diskbased.libraries are required for the system to work. And that is definitely not true.

Is it also cheating to require SetPatch + 68060.library? Not many Amiga demos (4k or otherwise) work without them.
Well, "not many" is quite far fetched as at least Setpatch can be easily avoided when it comes to hardware banging intros. Besides, an intro doesn't open 68060 library on its own and uses its functions, contrary to a certain math library which started this whole discussion.

How about OxyPatcher? It's as non-standard as can be (made by demosceners), but most Amiga compos run it, and many demos rely on it (or something equivalent).
If the demo REQUIRES Oxypatcher (I have yet to see one which does) then it is cheating. Also, following your logic, many people drive too fast, does it mean it's OK to do it then? - isokadded on the 2012-09-19 09:47:29

saying using a diskbased standard amigaos library is cheating, but using a rom one (e.g. "graphics.library") is not, just doesn't make any sense.. a coder doesn't decide whether a library is diskbased or not and some may even be diskbased on some os/rom versions and not on others..
I completely disagree. ROM libraries are available as soon as you turn on the machine so it's not cheating to use them as it is required to use at least graphics.library anyway for proper startup. Libraries that are loaded from disk are a completely different thing (Why are they loaded from disk? Because they are not considered important enough to "waste" space in the ROM) and using them in 4k's (or smaller intros) is cheating, plain and simple. And when it comes to 4k intros, which external libraries can you name that are REQUIRED for one to work? I can think of exactly 0. - isokadded on the 2012-09-19 09:00:02

You need ECS chipset for dual playfield.
Not true. Dual playfields are a normal OCS feature. - isokadded on the 2012-09-19 08:52:15
