1.1 - System Requirements
A 286 will probably this thing, but it would probably take about a
day to run all of the demo... in a 386, it takes 20 minutes!
Reason: The code is SLOW!!
At the time I made this I only had 3 months coding experience!!
It was coded in a P166, so I never got the notion that it was so slow.
To hear the music, you should have EMM386 loaded, with, at least,
a couple of megs of EMS.
It suports SB, SB16 and AWE32... it uses the s3mplay units.
The demo's full time should be around 2/3 minutes.
NOTE: the demo is supposed to hang up the computer in the end... BUG!
( we like to think of it more as a feature... not a bug... hehehe...)
1.2 - The Demo itself
I'm not sure if you can call it a demo....
It's "light-centuries" away from the 1996 demoscene standart...
its looks more like a 1992 demo...
But hey!!, I only got 5 months of coding under my belt... (3 at the
time of the demo)...
It is all my code, with a few arrangements from Deadbrain on the
3d wireframe part, and the Lens fx on the end was inspired in some guy's
code in SWAG. The rest is absolutely ours. (unlike what slink thinks.)

** 3 - Miscellaneous Info **
This demo was presented at AS96 in the 23rd of december, 1996.
At the time, I, eXtaCy, belonged to the group Atlantic Dreams, and
was asked to code a demo to present at the party.
After some weeks of work, I was able to put this together, with some
help from DeadbraiN (aka Vyper), and we made it to the party.
After January 1997, I left AD and formed a new group called GarbaGe.
This demo never got out while I was in AD, so I'm releasing my work a
bit late, but who cares... anyway, the code is mine... ;)
If you wanna get in touch with me or any of the GarbaGe members, just
e-mail us at:
milton_moura@hotmail.com
For more info, read the garbage.app, garbage.nfo.
3.1 - Final words
This demo is finally out after about 2 months.
It isn't a 3d vector, phong rendered, real time morphing, 39234234 polys,
6 meg, Hi-Res, FC like demo.... BUT HELLL!!!!! Its what we could do at the
time, and believe me... NOBODY ELSE is able to do something like this around
here...
The Portuguese Scene is growing, but the Azorean Scene barely exists...
I count 20 people that even know what a "demo" is... 8(
Well... I hope that Infinity Network keeps its good job so far, and hope
that people will stay tuned for GarbaGe...
...we are preparing great stuff...
PS: If by any chance you would like me to send you the code of the demo, I'll
be happy to do it, just mail me about it...
Maybe i'll post it later... who knows... #)
