Hello,

Here my entry \ o /

Hope you enjoy it

(Needs Windows and OpenGL 2.0)

EDIT:
26th May, new version uploaded (as final) with shader fix (not tested), not the ones from Hellfire, but I guess, it is the same.
With scroller for more fun

Hey Littlewhite,

you entry rocks. Nice happy music and colourful scenery. Love the sound analyzer effect! This is really oldschoolish.

One question, I saw some purple/red spheres flying around for just a short little time? Is that suppose to be that way? If so, why do not make them appear more prominent?

Anyway, congratz for this production and thanks for the greetings in the README ;-) I know the dilemma of not having a scoller/text to include the greetings within the production itself ;-)

Best,
benny!

I got a white screen and then the app closed without running unforutinately. Your things normally run fine on my computer..

padman · « **Reply #3 on:** May 25, 2011 »

Similar thing here. Console window opens (see screenshot for output), main screen tries to open but closes immediately.

TinDragon · « **Reply #4 on:** May 25, 2011 »

Same as the others, starts up then shuts down, Since its closing itself I am guessing something your calling to load or compile the shaders might be failing and the app is catching it and closing. Weird how it works for benny.

Do you have nvidia or ati graphics cards/chips ?

hellfire · « **Reply #5 on:** May 25, 2011 »

It works fine with linux in wine

(with geforce 8600)

benny! · « **Reply #6 on:** May 25, 2011 »

I've got an NVIDIA Geforce 310 here.

Runs fine here.

Nice entry! I liked the visualizer and the [Actuator/CNS-inspired] particles

Looking good!

padman · « **Reply #8 on:** May 25, 2011 »

Hmm, I also got an Nvidia GeForce (FX5200) with OpenGL Version 2.1.2. No idea why it's not working. *shrugs*

I was unable to run this.

The console window appears, then the window loads, goes white and dies.

Windows 7 64 bit home premium
4 GB RAM
AMD Phenom dual core processor
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 series

Unfortunately NVidia's GLSL compiler accepts shader code which does not comply to the specifications but ATI rejects it with an error.
You can use glsl validate to check your shader-code for compliance.

hblur.ps:

(and the same applies to vblur.ps)

I still get padmans result after hellfires fix

LittleWhite · « **Reply #12 on:** May 26, 2011 »

I have uploaded a new "final" version (it took something like 30 minutes on the actual connection

)
I have added scroller and try to fix the shader stuff (I did not reuse the Hellfire's one ... but I guess we did the same)
I am really sorry about this issue

Iwill try to do a new version with more feedbacks on error ... and I hope with a complete fix for you guys. I hope to be able to upload it this evening.

Pixel_Outlaw · « **Reply #13 on:** May 26, 2011 »

I was able to run it in Linux with Wine.

Awesome work, what a wonderful demo!

Kirl · « **Reply #14 on:** May 26, 2011 »

Cool demo, lovely tune with nice visuals. I like it a lot!

padman · « **Reply #15 on:** May 26, 2011 »

Still doesn't work here.

Hotshot · « **Reply #16 on:** May 26, 2011 »

I love the Music

Cool stuff

LittleWhite · « **Reply #17 on:** May 26, 2011 »

Hey, I will try something else ...

Here a new version (the content did not change). I have just added some code to see where it goes.
So, to view the "log" you have to use the command line to start the program. To open one in the folder where the demo is, press the shift button + right click on this folder and new menu will allow you to open a command line here (funky windows, isn't it)
And then type DBN.exe and it will see the log in the console \ o /

So please, report me.
As a precision:

Not working at my home on Geforce 5100 / TNT2 (I have really old computers)
Working on Geforce 360M

And finally, just to spot the problem faster, the demo needs FBO (Frame Buffer objetcs). If you don't have it (or supported by your driver, the demo will not run (and now, you have a message to tell it :s)

I am really sorry about that.
If some guys able to run it could produce a video capture, I will be really tahnkful (since I don't have the internet connection to upload it ...

)

Thank you very much for your support, sorry about the annoyance.

TinDragon · « **Reply #18 on:** May 26, 2011 »

This version works fine on my system now

padman · « **Reply #19 on:** May 26, 2011 »

Yay, now at least it tells me why it won't run.
