propz for the replay-routine :D

it requires latest gfxcard drivers + d3dx_30.dll.

And if you can't update your directx (like for example because you own a badly cracked version of windows or something):

Thanks, copying d3dx9_30.dll from my old system did the trick. Very nice intro as usual, great to hear this classic tune in a PC intro. The tunnel is pretty cool and my favourite effect in the intro. :)

Be sure your machine meets the minimum requirements also updating the gfxcard driver may help (it fixed a problem on alien's machine), otherwise i don't know, are you using vista ?

You may want to download it again (beware of browser's cache) as i uploaded a slightly fixed version, maybe it'll fix the problem. Video's coming.

hitchhikr: i still wonder how you 'manage' to not hide your identity while being openly associated with warez grps :>
rulez added on the 2007-06-17 23:34:44 by Zest Zest
Simple: i'm not associated with any warez groups or people, i just receive some mails from time to time from unknown people with unknown goals asking for an intro, sometimes i do it, most of the time i don't.

Won't work here. The intro starts, black screen, gets back under windows, shows a transparent 800*600 (approx. i'd say) window, with just the border visible (red cross/minimize and stuff) and "cette application doit fermer car elle a causé une erreur blah blah mes couilles [envoyer] [ne pas envoyer] [windows = daubasse]"

Runs very slow for what it shows (the checkerboards are jerky, and the warping blackhole thing crawls and makes the sound stutter) but I guess my video card is rather sucky and it's 4k, so allowances can be made. Otherwise very nice.

Hitchhikr, excuse me but there's no Genesis3.avi in your untergrund's FTP folder ?

added on the 2007-06-18 20:37:54 by BackSpace BackSpace
psonice: it requires a badass gfxcard (there's major slowdowns on older geforce fx5x00 cards).

Shockwav3: Be sure your gfxcard have support for pixel shaders 2.0 and that you're using the latest driver for it (especially if it's an ATI card).

Blackspace: the directory of untergrund ftps takes a while for being populated, usually the files are there and available by using ftp://untergrund.net form instead of ftp://ftp.untergrund.net.

Nice effects hitch, however chiptune is from amiga team called "Paranoimia", we would prefer genesis to use their own prods for cracktros ! U can check here : http://pouet.net/prod.php?which=4023 and also here to compare http://www.outracks.net/music/paranoimia-cracktro_theme.mp3
I recognised this chip instantly because paranoimia used it in their "Shadow of the Beast" cracktro and it was my favorite game at this period.
If ne autopsy claims he was leading paranoimia when he was spermato, i will reply Total BS :p

well... the tune is great but its just a rippoff of an old classic. I didn't care much for the visuals. So all in all, this didn't give me much
added on the 2007-06-30 18:18:53 by Duckers Duckers
Great cracktro, a shame you decided not to release it at the party (or was there another reason?)
added on the 2007-06-30 23:02:56 by Nezbie Nezbie
I think it was banned from the compo because of the stolen music ... and because hitchhiker was drunk and violent with his keyboard :-D
added on the 2007-06-30 23:07:40 by Steel Steel
Yeah, too bad about the stolen music (especially since it's the 2nd time), it's not like demoscene lacks musicians in 2007, there are plenty of people willing to make tunes :/
added on the 2007-06-30 23:11:11 by keops keops
Unfortunately, few of them can make such good tune of that size.

"ripped music"
sucks added on the 2007-09-20 21:26:05 by parcelshit parcelshit
Since nobody said it, I guess it's not well known. The music is composed by TSM/Sunriders a.k.a. Felix Schmidt. Suntronic, in the credit, refers to the music format, not the author. It's on Exotica under the name MSX-cracktro_2. Plays well with Deliplayer :).
It was used in cracktros by Paranoimia (used at least 4 times), Also by Vision Factory (found at least 10 times), Anthrox and Scoopex (Top Wrestling), Horizon (Clown O Mania) and probably some others as well :).
Nice 4k btw :)

Wrong.
added on the 2007-11-22 00:25:17 by hitchhikr hitchhikr
Everybody used this tune from Suntronic back in the day. It's composed 100% in 68k assembler, nice to hear it "ported" ;)
rulez added on the 2008-02-09 11:52:30 by fxmj4598fj4598fj fxmj4598fj4598fj
And by the way, the music "format" is named after its author, Suntronic. It's not really a format imo as you may customize it anyway you want; you code it in assembler.
I really like the checkerboard effect at the beginning! The music is a classic.
