Two projects I wish I finished:

• The Writer 3.0 : a cross-platform noter with human typing feature and sid/mod/xm music support.
• EvilEngine : a novel 3D engine ... read more http://users.telenet.be/freedom.systems/snippets/evilengine.txt

The Writer 3.0 is like 90% finished ... hmmz ... maybe if I have some time left this month, I might pick it up again
Maybe I could put it on sourceforge/google-code/savannah and we could see it as the first open-source demo project.
I often wonder why this is not done more often?

thanks!

Yesterday I redid most of our website and most of it is up & running now ... Not bad in a days work

Today some c64 coding .. First trying to get stable raster with sprites ... If I remember how .... 

Is there a c64 corner around here somewhere? Let's have a look ...

hi all,

I've been looking for a while to find a forum/site like this one where you can just share demo-a-like code and ideas but are not expected to be l33t etc. 

I got the majority of august to do some demoscene related stuff and I really hope I can do the following three 'dreams' 

- rebuild website (easy)
- code a c64 intro (average - it's been like 10 yrs since I did some cracktro's )
- code a 4k procedural gfx thingy (hard - just starting out with glsl fragment shading)

The languages I prefer are assembly and C/C++ with libSDL. Also some python-pygame for prototyping stuff. I think python is an excellent language for quickly trying out some stuff, and with pygame it's very cross-platform (one of the thing I always aim for).

My favorite machine(s) are mostly retro (C64, Amiga) or 'weird' hardware like Playstation2/3 & embedded devices.

I've been in the scene since 1989 when doing some cracks on c64, then moved on to DOS where I did mostly demos & game-trainers. When W95 infected computerland, I switched to Linux and never looked back, but I also 'lost' the demoscene along with it. Until I discovered csdb, pouet, ps2dev and the likes which made me take up demo-related programming again for non-windows machines. Now I just focus on Linux & my old love: the C64

Don't really know what else to write on a first post. So just ask away if you'd like to know anything ...

Cheers
