afair it was a cool 3d show that made even 'state of the art' pentiums crawl.. 8] not sure if it still works..

hmmmm, all I can remember about this demo is that it was a mediocre 3dsplayer utilizing my voodoo graphics.
this productions ruled me out when I first watched it (before it was released :) hehe). It rocked me even more when I saw it accelerated on Vector's 3dfx. The first accelerated demo I ever watched. Greets and thumbs up for Vertigo, wherever they hide ;)
(I still have that Business Card Vector talks about in the TXT ;)

a rare-gem of the north-american demoscene.
Nice beginning
First demo I saw on my 3dfx voodoo1 :_)
first 3d acc demo i've seen
1st 3d accel demo?
Haven't I voted for this before?!?! First accelerated demo as I see now and really really good concept and music, I could even watch it today.
This was/is pretty awesome on a 3dfx, however it should be noted that the software rasteriser is bugged as hell, especially withregards to the guroud shading. Which makes sense, since it was never meant to be viewed that way as far as I can tell from the README :).
Technically, there's a windows binary, but good look getting it to run. Non-accelerated version works quite well in dosbox, if you can stomach abysmal framerates. :)
Windows version runs fine with wine+glide wrapper.
Some scenes are better than others...
Graphics didn't age well as most 3D stuff from that time, the camera paths are also pretty horrible, but I guess it was pretty good for its time, hence:
Wonderful demo, even to this day thanks to DX6 patching and nGlide. I'm going to start spreading it.
I remember as boring and hard to get running, but thumb for HW support.
The 3D demo Vector was thinking of was Trip, which came out a few months *after* this, so Nature was still first!
Great 3D scenes for the time, nice music (main part), and cool to see that patches and wrappers keep this watchable realtime *20 years* later!
