A trip down memory lane for the Aussies!
« on: February 22, 2013, 12:26:54 AM »
Hi all, I was digging thru my floppies from back in the day and I came across two of my favorite demos from an Aussie group called DECAY.

These demo's used video frame captures and animation from two of Australia's most popular Aussie TV personalities from the early 90's - oh and imo the music is really great!

Here are the ADF's I made of the disks:

Derryn Hinch
Steve Vizard

Hope you all enjoy these as much as I do (Aussies will prolly get a bigger kick out of these, non-aussies might be all, WTF! :D ).

No worries :D

my fav is the Steve Vizard demo, I luv how they synced his actions with the music. :)

Btw, I've asked over at EAB if someone can convert them for use with WHDLoad: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=870236#post870236

I used to chat to Bigmac a bit on his BBS, he was a good bloke. He always had time to help out with things from general questions to silly 68k asm questions I sometimes had. I think it was Enconn BBS(?).

Popular isn't the word i would use. Well known but not popular.
Even my cat doesn\'t like me.
