Happy New Year!
|
|
|
|
Well it's the first day of 1996 now, as I write this. I'm apparently a bit
|
|
late, but I thought these things go out on Monday. Well at least now I can
|
|
wish you a happy new year! In the past week, the Party 5 happened and we
|
|
all heard how badly organized it was. Again. I'm not sure whose fault
|
|
this is, but I know it's gotta be hard to organize a 3000 person party. I
|
|
just hope someone figures out how to do it right. Necros spent what little
|
|
money he has to fly all the way there and went home disappointed. IOR flew
|
|
even further and didn't even do as well. =)
|
|
|
|
Sorry if this is a bit short, but I have stuff to do still before I get
|
|
this out. I hope my first demonews satisfies all your needs. If you don't
|
|
like it, print it out on nice soft paper and use it in the bathroom =)
|
|
|
|
Oh, one more thing. As you may know, I handle the music section of our
|
|
archive. If you have questions or comments about this or the music ratings
|
|
we include here and in our 00index.txt files, please mail me at
|
|
diablo@wcarchive.cdrom.com. I try to include as much explanation about
|
|
archive procedures as possible in the .message files in each directory.
|
|
The music reviews are another thing. Some people like them, some hate
|
|
them. If you have a particular like or dislike, please mail me. Please
|
|
include reasons or alternatives. It doesn't help me to get messages like
|
|
"Your reviews suck."

=----------------------------------[The Party 1995 Demos Reviewed]--[Phoenix]-=
|
|
|
|
This won't be your average party compo review. I've added a little section
|
|
to reflect my personal disgust toward the recent attitude in the scene;
|
|
that is, to imitate groups more popular than yours. You'll see...
|
|
|
|
[From Snowman: Please note that the "Overall" fields below are _not_ the
|
|
same thing as the file ratings listed above. Where Phoenix has given
|
|
ratings for TP5 entries with respect to each other, the demos under
|
|
"Demos:General" are given ratings with respect to all other demos in the
|
|
scene.]

Who would've thought, a SVGA vector-demo by Realtech? This one takes cues
|
|
from several other demos, like Bill G Force/Complex (lens flares/ logo),
|
|
Nation Zero/Jamm (cubes), and Cyboman 2 (school of fish). Also, the title
|
|
comes from a Purple Motion S3M. However, they did a good job with the
|
|
underwater theme. I wonder if the manta/seahorse textures come from the
|
|
same critter-library EMF/Plant used (see later)? The end pic/music are
|
|
nice.

Well, considering Croaker/Halcyon made the music for this demo, it's no

surprise where the design came from. Watch Karma by Halcyon or Avena
|
|
Kinetik by Distrosion for a similar feel. A worthy effort.

This was the only Dutch demo entry as many from there were cut out of the
|
|
compo. As a result, an Anti-TP5 intro was made (check out antitro2.zip).
|
|
I think this demo deserved better than 17th, it had full 32k color, some
|
|
nice objects and good graphics.

Well, through all the turmoil going on in this country there are those
|
|
courageous enough to keep on coding. The only unique part of this demo is
|
|
the intro screen where a bunch of cubes fly around the screen to form a
|
|
Hyperopia logo, this is pretty neat. The rest is the usual
|
|
tunnel/rippling/rotation effects. Some decent gfx. The music is standard
|
|
dancefloor but a little dull for a demo, and breaks up a bit in the middle.

Sorry, but I couldn't fairly rate this. With my Vesa 1.2 driver it locks
|
|
up after the logo, and with Univbe 5.1 it locks up after announcing the 64k
|
|
color part. BTW I have an ET4000W32 chip. A bugfix is in need.
|
|
|
|
[From Snowman: I too had this problem. However, I found out that the Sony
|
|
Trinitron monitor I was using would not synch to the correct mode (even
|
|
with UNIVBE). My 4 year old Samsung Sensor monitor did the job though. Go
|
|
figure. :) I liked this production a lot and gave it a **** overall.]

This is the last demo of S!P-Poland before they join the new Pulse group
|
|
(see below). Scorpik once again made a cool soundtrack, and the effects,
|
|
some of which are in faked-18-bit-color, are numerous and well done,
|
|
although not extremely unique. I feel this demo should've placed a little
|
|
higher than 10th. If you like Cocoon, you'll also want to check out
|
|
S!P-Poland's last demo, "Dreamsteal".

Kudos to Masque for their idea behind this "demo", to arrange effects
|
|
according to the frequency of the music. Unfortunately, there are only
|
|
9 or so effects and they start repeating after about 30 seconds.
|
|
So I think E-Beat placed a little too high, for what it has.

This is demo is from a new group consisting of the what used to be Infiny,
|
|
plus in the future Distorsion and S!P Polish section. Polka Brothers
|
|
(Amiga) fans will be in for a treat, but hardcore Second Reality fans
|
|
should probably keep away. Has complex vector-scenes with a dude
|
|
sky-surfing around them, and some still gfx by Antony. Shad's "rock" music
|
|
is uhh, interesting. :)

To be honest, I was more impressed with Dubius' ASM95 demo, "Optimal
|
|
Torque". This one has many effects based on that, among other places. The
|
|
tunnel is reminiscent of the one in Realtech's "DX Project", and the
|
|
dog.3ds in between two rings, I've think I've seen SHADOW an effect VOLUME
|
|
like that DOPE before, hmm.. the music is borderline techno (too slow to be
|
|
I guess), but I really like it.

Believe it or not, this is Jamm's very first full length demo. And they
|
|
didn't do a half-bad job. While there are not very many effects (blobs,
|
|
odd voxels, project-xyz-like tunnel (but in color), etc), the design and
|
|
graphics (by Visualize) are excellent. The music played by Midas .5 beta
|
|
is very high quality. Worth checking out.

This was the not only the winner of the TP5 PC demo compo, but also the
|
|
only one that made it to my diskmag voting list :). Saracen/EMF teamed
|
|
up with Mik Sair/Plant for a valiant coding effort, with Beatnik doing
|
|
gfx and Dune/any-Finnish-group-I-feel-like doing the great music.
|
|
|
|
It starts out in the usual Dope-ish manner, followed by a tunnel (sure),
|
|
then the first vector-scene. It has VERY life-like fish floating around a
|
|
seafloor. Following this is another scene with butterflies (once again
|
|
realistic) flying above lilypads (nice vectors) and into the sky. Third is
|
|
a group of firefly-lights swarming around a group of tall stones in a dark
|
|
scene, then the stones change into translucent pillars. It ends with a
|
|
form-changing picture. Unfortunately, the demo never seems to return to
|
|
DOS, although Escape did the job for me. Very impressive for two weeks
|
|
work.

=-----------------------------[The Party 1994 CD Reviewed]--[Snowman and Ior]-=
|
|
|
|
_____Introduction
|
|
|
|
Hello all, Snowman here. About 2 months ago, I ordered "The Party 1994
|
|
CDROM" from your friend and mine, IOR / Hornet. Just for kicks, I decided
|
|
that I'd write an e-mail to the Hornet gang _while_ I was opening up the CD
|
|
for the first time. IOR subsequently replied to my comments.
|
|
|
|
Two months ago, I told IOR that I would do a review of this CD for
|
|
DemoNews. Unfortunately, by now I've forgotten most of what I thought
|
|
about this CD. :) I went back to my old logs and came across the e-mail
|
|
that IOR and I sent back and forth. Using my artistic license (making up
|
|
some of IOR's words), I now present to you "The Party 1994 CD Reviewed", as
|
|
converted from e-mail.
|
|
|
|
Please note that IOR has attended TP94, ASM95, and is currently in Europe
|
|
just waiting for TP95 to begin. For those of you attending TP95, I'd like
|
|
to also mention that Stony / Hornet will be there. Just walk up to him and
|
|
say "Hi Stony, I'm Snowman / Hornet" and he'll be friendly to you. :)
|
|
|
|
_____The Review
|
|
|
|
SNO: OK gang, I will now open up my two snail mails... online!
|
|
|
|
IOR: Sounds like fun!
|
|
|
|
SNO: First mail, "Get a VISA Card." Only 5.9% fixed APR financing until
|
|
May 1996 when you then pay $4999.55 per month low service charge.
|
|
|
|
IOR: Doh!
|
|
|
|
SNO: Second mail, The Party 1994 CD. Opening...
|
|
|
|
Yes! Bubble-wrap! [making popping noises now] Oh, there's this CD
|
|
inside too. But who cares about that. I got bubble-wrap!
|
|
|
|
OK, the front cover has a child (little boy with blonde hair) being
|
|
held up by the back of his collar by this green sharp-looking demon.
|
|
|
|
"This CD is full of the best demos, music and graphics for PC and
|
|
Amiga." "An ASSEMBLY Organizing Production... THE PARTY 4 CD. Try
|
|
this at home." [note the omission of "don't"]
|
|
|
|
This CD is heavy and shrink-wrapped. Still haven't opened it up yet.
|
|
|
|
IOR: Well open the blasted thing already. What do you think?
|
|
|
|
SNO: Just hold on dude... I want to look at the back of the case first.
|
|
|
|
[looking at back]
|
|
|
|
- 100 demos, 190 musics, 120 gfx, etc. etc.
|
|
- Cubic Player v1.5
|
|
- New version of F-Prot. [hehe... Remember the virus on ASM94 CD?]
|
|
- Whoa! "All the entries from Juhla 2 and the best from Abduction
|
|
95". Remember TP94:, JUH95B:, and ABD95:? We are missing graphics,
|
|
music and demos from these parties and now I can make sure that
|
|
ftp.cdrom.com has a full set.
|
|
|
|
This looks and feels like a very professional production.
|
|
|
|
[opening plastic wrap now]
|
|
|
|
OK, with the ASM94 CD, you could enter the CD-ROM competition. If your
|
|
name was drawn, you won a free trip to ASM95. I want to know who won!
|
|
Anyway, the competition for this one is "If your name is drawn, you
|
|
win a free Zytel modem." It says results of the CD-ROM drawing will be
|
|
posted to comp.sys.ibm.pc.demos, so look for this in mid to late
|
|
December. Hmm...
|
|
|
|
IOR: Actually, it's not as bad as it sounds. They're giving away _6_ ZYXel
|
|
ISDN modems. WOW.
|
|
|
|
SNO: "Producer: Markus Kantonen" <-- who is that?
|
|
|
|
IOR: That is Moku, ex-Accession member. Prez of ASSEMBLY Organizing. All
|
|
around cool guy :)
|
|
|
|
SNO: The insert is so huge that I had trouble pulling it out of the case.
|
|
(23 pages, it's no wonder the thing felt heavy)
|
|
|
|
The style of language used in the "Opening Words" suggests that the
|
|
end recipient of this CD may not be from the demo scene.
|
|
|
|
IOR: Again, Moku :)
|
|
|
|
SNO: Very nice printing color.
|
|
|
|
There appear to be some enhancements in the GUI (compared to The
|
|
Assembly 1994 CD). Whoa! The pictures are going to be displayed in
|
|
640x480x256 so have your VESA driver loaded.
|
|
|
|
There is a new mode for Cubic Player called "Big GSA" and it says that
|
|
a Pentium or DX4 is recommended.
|
|
|
|
OK, I've read through the documentation, let's go try this thing out.
|
|
|
|
[time passes...]
|
|
|
|
Just got done playing with the CD. This is a really groovy
|
|
production, and I would recommend you all get a copy.
|
|
|
|
I'm not sure if this is what I saw, but it appears that at TP94, they
|
|
had a bulletin board (and I ain't talking about a BBS) at the party.
|
|
Groups could just come over and put a memo saying "Looking for
|
|
graphician, come see Snowman in room 144", etc. This is a GREAT idea
|
|
and I would highly recommend doing it at NAID.
|
|
|
|
IOR: Yes, that is indeed what you saw. They also had one at Asm '95. Cute
|
|
idea and it has some use, although it's hard to find a specific
|
|
message. And equally hard to describe where to find yourself ;)
|
|
|
|
SNO: There are several really odd pictures of people who painted their
|
|
computers whacky colors.
|
|
|
|
There are 3 audio tracks on the CD, none of which I could get to play
|
|
through the default player (Cubic Player, which was playing the other
|
|
music just fine). When I say "audio tracks", I mean like tracks on a
|
|
CD and not an .s3m or .mod.
|
|
|
|
IOR: Yes, I discovered this about a month after I opened my copy. I was
|
|
really bored, and I put it in my Audio CD player. Lo and behold! 4
|
|
tracks are detected. So I skipped the 50 minute first track (the
|
|
data) and moved on to the next three. Three "decent" techno tracks.
|
|
Third one is kinda cool. Nice rez at the beginning of the first.
|
|
|
|
SNO: There is a ton of stuff from Juhla 2.5 and Abduction and TP94. Our
|
|
demo archive is going to be a _really_ complete archive.
|
|
|
|
There are descript.ion files for most directories. For you non-4DOS
|
|
people, that means that by typing "dir", you can get descriptions of
|
|
all the files automatically. Yee-haw!
|
|
|
|
IOR: I hope you enjoy the CD :)
|
|
|
|
And let me send you a little order to include in the next copy of DN.
|
|
Remember, this is for North American purchasers _only_. Euro
|
|
purchasers must get their copy straight from ROMWare or ASSEMBLY
|
|
Organizing. I am not a European Distributor.
|
|
|
|
This is what I've come up with. Tell me if you think I should change
|
|
anything on it.
|
|
|
|
SNO: This order form looks good dude. I'll include it below.
|
|
|
|
_____Ordering Information
|
|
|
|
Wow! Now you too can own the "The Party 4" CD-ROM! =)

|

|
|

very likely for me to get more :) Just clip this, fill it out, print it,
