I have three problems with this. Firstly it ruined my windows after exiting. Secondly, its one of the simplest 256b I have seen (in terms of result). Thirdly running a setup program means I have to count those bytes too, which makes this a 4k.

You can never make the scene happy. :)

Nice implimenting the method gargaj suggested, at least it works now!

Now it works :)
It's not really pretty, but thumbs up for crazy hacking.

I will just give it a thumb up for trying again something very different that I may not understood and thumbed down before but you are crazy to try it again and do all this setup process and stuff that I must not understand but it's a hack already because it's different than coding a normal 256b and what the fuck I am telling now? :)

Man, sorry for my previous post, but I saw no other way to open your eyes. I know that free hostings generally sux, and I understand everybody can have problems with download link sometimes, but is it really hard to share 6KB reasonable way, especially when you are releasing new production? Last time unfriendly sceners thumbed down your prod because of that, friendly ones hosted it - didn't you draw any conclusion?

EXE modified by SETUP works, cool you fix that. Typical 256B intro next time?

micksam7, thanks.

I tried on various resolutions - it only doesn't clear screen, what is no big problem (I remember worse issues with your 1Ks on older machine, hehe).

It's the most complex 256B for Windows I have ever seen (actually it's the second one, first was 204b HelloWorld).

Absolutely no. Setup doesn't extract any resources, it only prepares good EXE (modifies existing one in fact). For example some 4K intros provide various resolution-versions in archive, you choose proper for you. Here situation is similar, but instead of making 500 versions author created generator.

Haven't you missed the point of this prod, a little?
  added on the 2008-05-25 13:04:57 by Pirx  
Well for me the point is: Make better effects with more bytes rather than shit with less bytes. I understand this is kinda proof of concept here but I would rather see something interesting in 4k or even 64k.

i didnt just understand the purpose of using the resolution of the screen to make this xor texture? whats wrong with using some standard resolution like 640x480 or even the old 320x200 for this kind of stuff?

much better now :)
and it's not the first 256b with an editor either

which means you didn't see this or this.

Anyway, intro works now but having the desktop filled with a simple xor texture it not particularly interesting.

stingray: those are not PE

hmm ok :)

Piggy for the technical achievement, but effect-wise this sucks.
  added on the 2008-05-25 15:36:11 by stijn  
It works fine now. I wonder whether there's a tutorial about which PE header fields are safe to change/overlap so that it works under any Windows (2k+). I've seen TinyPE and made a few attempts (no setup file: kernel32 lookup from stack return address + LoadLibrary + import by hash), but I'd like a reliable method... maybe the Crinkler guys know something?

StingRay, yes, Peci's intros crashed on every computer I tried to launch them.

Pirx: well, just like the first version of Roxor :D
  added on the 2008-05-25 15:43:57 by StingRay  
I absolutely disagree that you should include the setup program in the size, considering you can delete it after you've run it.

Setup program works fine.
Motivational thumb up for not giving up after your first try.

Apparently doesn't work on Vista x64. When I try to run it, an error box comes up and asks me to see if I might need a 64-bit version. I practically never see this error with anything, so the app is doing something strange. Can we get a version 3? :) I'd love to see a small app method working on all systems..
  added on the 2008-05-25 16:54:38 by bigcheese  
and yeah, small Windows apps in the past have mostly just crashed and burned on everything I've tried to run them on. Based on the above comments, it at appears that this one may be an improvement even if it doesn't work on 64-bit.

That download link is a pain in the ass, I gave up before getting the actual file.
