Both versions just show some interference pattern, no movement, no music. E6750/XP32/4850/Cat8.12

is the precalc supposed to take like five minutes
precalc: 30-40 seconds ... music! only on singlecore-CPUs tho !

ATI: we tested,worked fine !
needs ps2 only and the shaders are kept easy,nothing that should make it difficult on ATIs...
so i´m sorry, but all testing-machines gave a normal-working experience!
Music precalcs (black screen), background pops up and that's it. So it's more like it stops (but can be exited). I don't think it's graphics driver related, music doesn't start either.

Keftales in shaders and 3d strings (like the universe was formed ;). Cool music too.

I tested the exe files for Single Core PCs - none of them worked. I didn't even see a black screen or heard music as some of the people who posted before me did.
added on the 2008-12-30 20:18:38 by Adok Adok
singlecore.exes need 30-40 seconds music-precalculation.
the name comes from the music which is named "Belgium Summer", just like 12c4 incidentally called the intro.
cool

color shock with some nice effects and an OK tune.

if this is "belgian summer" i want to see how the belgian winter is :) the only thing i didn't like was the background - 100% causes eye cancer!

Music wasn't bad, I hated the pastel colors and I found alot of it to be quite ugly...lots of good content though, it's worth a thumb

Argh, the last scene was totally eyefisting. Music was quite nice, though everything else was a bit washed and way too abstract. The only thing that wasn't abstract; the cube-disc-cylinder thingy, reminded me of receptor. So, despite all, it's a great effort, and it is worth a thumb like Ferris said.

hmm...there are many objects in it...i wonder if 512mb is enough...could you tell me if you have a dualcore or not,please ?

nice, great synth
Music and cylinderball were okay.
Rotating standard-primitives is by far the most boring and worn out stuff you can come up with.

I was determined to piggify this based on the screenshot. But thumb up for the music. Although I still don't like the colors, and even 4k intros are no excuse for x*y textures.
rulez added on the 2009-01-02 22:00:02 by Calexico Calexico
I actually quite like this, somewhat simple but still interesting effects and great music. I am not too sure what to think of that keftales background though, would have probably worked better without. Still a solid thumb up mainly because of the music.
rulez added on the 2009-01-02 22:28:22 by StingRay StingRay
textures? none involved, just the one i fill with the keftale.
nice one :)

this is probably the first prod to use multicore- props. and one of the few 4ks that run for me.

praetor_alpha: Perhaps the first 4k - at least my Breakpoint '08 demo ("Regus Ademordna") used multicore before this. I'm sure there's other earlier examples as well.

I appreciate technical effort but guys... THOSE COLORS!! My eyes nearly popped out. :) And what rarefluid said. Tunnel scene was indeed quite nice and I liked the music very much. Still a piggy because of my eyebleed. :P
added on the 2009-01-04 22:16:57 by masterm masterm
i had them different but some ppl meant its too bright all in all...should have stayed with my opinion of colors there maybe. too late :)
all the color-information is generated like this btw:

l=1-(i.e+cos(j+c))/5;

where "l" is the color, "i.e" are the normals, j is the object-position and "c" is the time.

so you see i had to experiment and had to make compromisses...but it´s very few bytes in the end :)
the awesomeness of ugliness

Totally missed this. Good 4k, plenty in it, and it gets more interesting as it goes on. I love that tunnel effect, and the music is great.

Some visuals parts are qutie nice (tunnel effect for example), others seem a bit too random/confusing but together with the great soundtrack, its a cool 4k!

Made a Youtube on my HD channel as you wish :D
