very good job !

this remembers me the old days as well

Hey guys,

thnx for the fine reaction

I had the screenchoose option in but I removed it because i thought fullscreen looked better but next time I leave it in

It's 100% opengl coded in PB v4.x so It's weird BikerBoy then you only see a white block.
But I have to admit I use blending for the transparancy of the logo so maybe it's related to gfx card but I'm not sure tho.

However I'll ask for more testers next time

Cheers and happy new year all..

Maybe I'm too late but I just want to say :

WELL DONE Widowmaker

I luve the wobbling sinusscroller a lot and ofcourse the LOGO too 

Cool code and runs very smooth on my old laptop..

Cheers,
DeX

I got the same problem as mentionned before.
It does not run on my Vista (but if I check the screenshot, it looks very very cool !)

Super idea I think.

DeXtr0

Absolutely great..

Dancing snowmen, great idea 


Well done Jihad..

Hey shockwave,

New version with darker textures when narrowed 

Good tip..

What do you think about it ?

Cheers,
DeX

Ofcourse, thats a good idea. It's your code I changed (maybe not correctly but I changed it  )
And you are right it's pure PB v4.10 beta4.

In attachement an example file and a .pbi file which contains the procedures including some textures so the example can run

I hope somebody can optimize it or help me a bit

Thanks buddy.

It's getting better thanks to the tips of Shock but it's still too slow

Cheers

Hey Shock, Vain,

This is what I coded today.
Looks a lot better !

Thanks for the tips, now I need to improve the speed

DeX

Thanks shock for the clear explanation.

Actually as you explain it it does not look that hard

What I have forgotten, and you are right about that, is the zoom command to resize the sprite when necessary.
Actually i just clip it and I don't care about the size *lol*

I'll try to recode that part !

1000x thanks and If I get stuck i'll let you know

Regards,
DeX

Wholy sh*t,

This is indeed what I was looking for.
Awesome job and runs very smooth here.

mm now i need to convert it to PB *lol*

I'll try that but i'm not an expert in conversion..

Again thanks for sharing... 

regards,
DeXtr0

P.S. Vain, is the source above (the one from shockwave) the one you based yourself on for the PB conversion ? If yes I can match the 2 to see the difference and learn ...

ah ok vain, thanks shockwave for sharing it with us.

This is what I made of it. (and i'll use it that's for sure  )

Cheers,
DeX

Credits will be the least I can do.

I'll will write a big thanks to you 

Again, thanks for sharing...

Hey Va!n,

Can I adapt your code to use with sprites & textures and use it in an intro ?

If yes I'll try to adapt it (maybe not the best code but i'll try to let it work).

Regards,
DeX

P.S. I'll put a big thanks in the scroll lines

Perfectly done vain.

Well coded, thanks for sharing 

Great code and great Idea.
I'm not sure if I have seen this before but I think I have.

However well done. Karma ++ and good luck with the competition !

Keep us informed about your position (after the votings) 

Cheers,
DeX

Whohoo sweet VA!N

Thanks a lot ,really appreciate that..

.DeXtr0

Wow p01, cool tip !

Thanks a lot,
DeXtr0

Wow guys you are grreat !

Never thought the answer was getting here that fast...

I'm coding in PureBasic so I'll have to check how I have to do it there but i'm definately going to try both ways. (after my holiday, I leave in 2 days) 

1000x Thanks guys,
DeXtr0

P.S. Scrolling a texture, never thought of that .... for doing a scroller. I'll try very very soon...

Hey guys,

I was watching some intro's the last couple of days and I noticed the remakes of those neat Vision Factory intro's.
A couple of there intro's have those nice twisting/curling (or how to call it) sinusscrollers effect.

What I mean are those sinusscrollers which look like a "tube" so you see the backside of the characters aswell...


Does anybody know the technique behind it ?

All help is welcome since I got no clue 

Thanks a lot,
DeXtr0
