DFGVY ADVERTRO

[rain_storm]

At last it is finished. This is an advertro promoting this fine forum. Its a 256 byte intro that features vertical scrolling text, good colour pallet, great generated music, and an escape on any key down (as well as some other more technical and boring features that arent visible to the end user)

To run this intro it is prefered that you have MS-DOS installed with a SoundBlaster card and a VGA Adapter. Failing that you can still run this on Windows XP so long as a VGA adapter or VGA compatible gfx card is present. Failing that you can run this in an emulator best one is DosBox get it here http://www.dosbox.com/

That's impressive to get some sound/movement/changing-colours in 256b...and it didn't crap out my PC like some tinies do! 

...and thanks for including the assembler source, not that I understand it but I'd like to think I might do one day

and it didn't crap out my PC like some tinies do! 

Thats great to hear I actually developed the core of this on a desktop which could run this 'as is' and then later on a laptop using DosBox to run it. I did make a point of ensuring that this would be as portable as possible and did not use the most common hacks that are the cause of so many crashes. Im glad to here that those efforts were well spent.

This is just one good reason why I love this community.
