Yeah, that's a very book demo!

The music sounds really great and it fits the demo perfect. I would say: "A stragne soundtrack for a strange demo!"

Btw: Could you send me the soundtrack as an mp3? Please *beg* :D (I love that soundtrack!)

I'm not sure about this Psygate but I am thinking that the music is probably a tracker tune ?

I really liked this one. Great experience! The music, weird? But I like it. And the style is great, I mostly like the envmapped transformed object and the nifty line shapes, and how all these are good synced to the beat. I don't know why, but I really liked this one!

@All: Cheers all. Means alot.

@Psygate: The tune used is an XM tracker tune called "Essen Auf Radern" by Virgill which will play with WinAmp. And you should be able to find it at Nectarine (http://www.scenemusic.net/) you may even be able to find a converted version as an mp3.

@Relsoft: As this was a Blitz3D creation, syncing to the music was darn difficult, as you can't use pointers so alot of the Bass Functions weren't available to use. So I had to cleverly use Sound volumes and float adjustments. And I used a totally different method with Kryton / Electro. What I'll do is create a special demo with source code, when I have time. This week especially is very busy for me on a personal score.

Back on topic:
So glad you liked it and many many thanks.

Clyde.

Good job !
The only thing I dislike is the text routine. I think it´s hard to read  ;)
But the rest is really cool  :clap:

BTW: Essen auf Rädern means meals on wheels  ;D

The demo is really neat!
(my favourite are the transparent bars)

A funny thing is that Virgill once gave me that track for an intro - which unluckily never finished.
That was about 10 years ago; nice to see someone made good use of it after all ;D
You can find more stuff from Virgill here (http://sites.romkids.org/cgi-bin/virgill/mp3framework.pl?page=home).

nice one i like it  ;D

it could be improved though by changing the background color to pure black and adding an effect behind the "magneto" logo like a plasma or something.

nice job man keep it up :clap:
