Hello all!
For some unknown reason, I have been thinking about a demo I saw years ago. It's been in my head for weeks now. In fact I'm not sure if it can be called a full blown demo. It was mainly music with a scrolltext with some cool effects (at least in my bad memory).
I have of course tried to google this (the only name I remember - Schweinstein), and also tried to look throuhg some archives, but not remembering what disk it was on, or what it was called, or even when it was made...
This is what I remember:
This was a one-man project. Basically the only name I remember, is "Schweinstein". Pretty sure that's how he spelt it. I also think it was among several other demos on a disk. I don't know what kind of disk (except 880 KB:p). And I don't remember what it was called, I just called it Schweinstein demo here.
I will begin with the end:
At the end of the demo, the screen went white, and the name "Schweinstein" appeared gradually as if handwritten. Pretty cool effect at the time and a nice touch.
One other thing I remember, is that the scroll-text reacted to the music. In particular a brass-ish instrument (I think), that made the font have a ripple-effect. They also of course waved up and down, the usual X-scroller, as well as turned up-side down at times, and sort of danced to the music. For the mathematically inclined, the "ripple"-effect I mentioned, is like the letters themself got an additional Y-scroll (wavy effect) with a much shorter wavelength than the height of the letter. I hope I got that right.. its hard to explain.
Schweinstein wrote something like this about himself: "I compose, I code, I fix hardware".. among lots of other stuff I certainly don't remember.
I'm also unsure about when I saw it.. Maybe 1990? But it could be before, or after.. by some years. Probably not before 1988 or after 1994... I'm really unsure.
So.. I was wondering if anyone else remember this, and just maaaybe have a link or an .adf-file to share, unlikely as it would be..
Edit: Corrected Title mostly.
