• demo Atari Falcon 030 It's that time of the year again by New Beat [web]
• Probably the first Hires demo from beginning to end!
  Good use of Blitter, heavy task in 8 bitplanes 640x480 60Hz ;-)
  Design and sync is always nice with New Beat and I like this funny Fish :D

• demo Atari Falcon 030 Electric Night by Dune
• Thadoss is in the same league than DML, Anima or MiKRO... no need 060 accelerator board to make impressive effects.
  The GFX of MIC are great (as usual) and releases a nice eighties ambiance.
  The 505 music spreads also this old (and great) atmosphere.
  
  The first place ? Well deserved :)
  
  We are happy to own a Falcon with such demo, thank you.

• @Sdw:
  A FPU is very common on Falcon for two reasons:
  First, there is a socket for this co-processor on the motherboard (as opposed to STF/E or Amiga 500/1200).
  Second, the shops sold the Falcon with this copro (without breaking the warranty) for only 63€ more (300FF), cheaper than a game!

  68882 is clocked only at 16MHz.

• With DML, everything who seemed impossible on a 1992 computer becomes possible, amazing!
  An accelerator board are useless with him :D
  Real time Raytracing on a standard Falcon is almost witchcraft =)
  Read the nfo is as impressive as watching the demo !!!
  I also like the design (fractal / enigma transition), the discrete electron beam that passes from time to time, the simulated CRT (curvature), etc.
  The music is also excellent.
  
  Congratulations, a milestone in the oldschool computers demoscene!
