- The Official Party Report From The Computer CrossRoad '93 -
|
||
|
||
|
||
This is a cooperation between Extreme(PC) and Septic(Amiga).
|
||
We made the same report on both computers so that more people can enjoy it!
|
||
|
||
|
||
- History -
|
||
|
||
This idea came up at the party when I spoke to Leinad/Avalanche. He told me
|
||
that he had a digitizer at home and it would be nice to make something to
|
||
remember from the party. I was lucky coz I had brought my camera,
|
||
so I was able to take some hefty pictures. So I started to photograph the
|
||
surroundings. After a while I handed over the camera to Hades/Septic and he
|
||
took some more piccys. When I was home again, I ran to the mailbox and
|
||
posted the photos, waited, and after a few dayz they arrived. Diz was gr8!
|
||
Ok, I told myself, let's digitize... Unfortunally(?) the school ended and
|
||
as we live in, what I call it, the country it wasn't the easiest to get to
|
||
Leinad, since there are NO buses or trains around. Anyhow, after about a week,
|
||
I finally managed to get those pictures digitized. (BIG thanx to Leinad)
|
||
Now a lot of converting had to be done and after that I sent the pictures to
|
||
Vicious/Septic so he could start coding the Amiga Version (he had to hurry,
|
||
coz he would take a trip to Italy) and we said that he would code and
|
||
write all texts and then I just convert it to a PC version. That worked just
|
||
fine and now you have the result at yar HD (or disc).
|
||
|
||
- Requirements -
|
||
|
||
This production is quite different from what we use to do... This takes alot
|
||
of discspace! Well, that's ofcoz becoz of the pictures that are impossible
|
||
to pack very much. It also needs alot of base memory (about 600kb) as we
|
||
still haven't bothered learning protected mode (sigh)...
|
||
|
||
You need:
|
||
|
||
* A computer (386 or better)
|
||
* Fully register compatible VGA card (I use a tweaked mode 376*282 just to
|
||
show the digitized pictures in 320*200 and still have place for the writer.)
|
||
* About 600kb of base memory, Don't use QEMM or something like that!
|
||
* About 2Mb of HDspace
|
||
|
||
You can use:
|
||
|
||
* SoundPlayer in LPT1 or LPT2
|
||
* SoundBlaster
|
||
* SoundBlaster PRO
|
||
|
||
Sorry all Gravis Ultrasound owners, but I haven't got any GUS myself, so
|
||
I cannot support it yet, but it will come!
|
||
I'm currently rewriting my modplayer from scratch and in this report I use
|
||
a betaversion of that one. That's why I don't support SB+LPT1 as usual.
|
||
That's also the reason why we use the UGLY setup. I'm going to make a nicer
|
||
one later, but right now I hurried to finish a working player.
|
||
(I REALLY hope it works coz I haven't bugtested it much)
|
||
|
||
- Rumours -
|
||
|
||
I've heard rumours from several people that we don't have an own modplayer,
|
||
and that makes me very disappointed, coz I've spent many hours coding it...
|
||
The first release, Wargasm, used Goldplay bcoz I hadn't made the player at
|
||
that time. Our latest issue of pulse (3) also used Goldplay only because
|
||
Moleql didn't got my player to work correcly (he had an old version...)
|
||
|
||
- Apology -
|
||
|
||
Even if Fear doesn't want to apologize TRITON for the things he wrote in
|
||
Pulse, I would like to do that, bcoz he was just upset and misunderstood
|
||
someone concerning the deadlines. I think he is sorry for that too, but
|
||
we haven't spoke to eachother about it, and now he's gone for a holiday...
