Title: Chladni: Reflections of the Mind
Post by: rdc on January 11, 2007
In POM the theme was "patterns". In ROM the theme is "reflections". Yes, another Chladni demo. (Actually this was just an excuse to try out the VU code Rbraz posted. :) )

Welldone, alot of hardwork has gone into this. I especially liked the tunnels, also very clever stuff with the transitions.

Bugger, it won't run here :(

What screen res is this in mate?

Post by: rdc on January 11, 2007
It's in 512 by 384. It's a standard resolution in FB, but maybe it won't run on a laptop. I'll try a different res.

That's why it won't run then :)

Any chance of a windowed mode ?

Thanks.

I recompiled this for 640x480, and added a few tweaks while I was at it. It should run across the board now. I think runs a little better now actually. That'll teach me to try something new. :) Link updated.

that was awesome.. I especially loved the part where the window showed the tunnel, while there were the 4 patterns flashing to the beat of the music..

You put a lot of time and work into this. enjoy your due congratulations =)

The new version ran really well here :) I am yet again amazed that you managed to get a whole demo out of one technique! Mel was sat here watching it with me too and she liked it also.

The textures were very pretty and you have some nice ideas, the circular lens revealing things is a great idea, however I particularly liked the tunnels (the first one was the best). And thank you for the greet!

Have some K :)

Jeez, that is worthy of respect. I've never managed to cook a gfx card with an intro :)

Shame Rick doesn't come around here any more.

Cool stuff, I have no idea why but I laughed when it reversed from the 4 images and the tunnel in the circle to the tunnel with the 4 images in the circle but maybe that's just me being weird.
