INCOMING
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
-TSCI = The Square (new group) enters the demo scene with this ok "intro"
|
|
-ACEDEMO = Graphic picture rotating in and around with .VOC music. Par.
|

|
|
NEW DIRECTORY
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
The new directory is called "source.code" and it will hold soure code to
|
|
demos and routines that people contribute. I also expect it to house
|
|
various utilities to help a coder do a demo--assembler, font editors, music
|
|
editors, and any other useful item. Like this demo site, contributions will
|
|
make or break this directory.
|
|
|
|
======================
|
|
WHAT ABOUT OTHER DEMOS
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
Where are all the new demos? If not new demos then what about old demos?
|
|
Anybody out there local to the MUSIC CONNECTION or the MUSIC CHANNEL BBS?
|
|
|
|
Be sure to UPLOAD new demos to the /pub/incoming/demos DIRECTORY.
|
|
Please try to include a short text file on what it is.
|
|
(Remember that files in the incoming directory usually have yet to be scanned
|
|
so be careful.)
|
|
|
|
=====================
|
|
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
1) The RATING system has a GOOD chance of being OVERHAULED. See the
|
|
ABOUT.DEMOS file for more information on what the new system will
|
|
probably be like. Send feedback if you WANT a new system. Thus far
|
|
I have heard from three or four people.
|
|
|
|
2) The demos will continue to be compressed with .LZH using LHA213.EXE
|
|
|
|
3) Anyone who would like to join/create a demo group but do not know where
|
|
to go let me know and I will attempt to put you in contact with others
|
|
wishing to do the same.
|
|
|
|
4) Is there any chance of someone out there attempting to get a DEMO
|
|
NEWSGROUP on the NEWSREADER? How about trying? They have an amiga demo
|
|
group, what about an IBM/PC demo group on the newsreader. I have a whole
|
|
article on how to GET a NEWSGROUP on the NEWSREADER. Anyone got the time?
|
|
|
|
=============
|
|
ANSI TACK-ONS
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Silence is deadly! Silence is worse than a NO. Is there anyone out there
|
|
willing to make a ANSI tack ON? "Death comes silently" you know. :^)
|
|
