@syn9:
very nice idea/concept and effect! I really like it!  K++
Is it made using DX, OGL, Softwarerendering?

Btw, just one little point... if the config file does not exist, the programm should set/init values to default and run instead exit ^^

Excellent one syn9 :) I really liked the fact that the "curves" starts from a triangle center and ends on another triangle center !


edit : oh and it ran perfectly smooth :)

It runs smoothly here on this average system.

I like the solar flare effect you have going on there, it looks really neat.

Nice effect, thanks for posting it :D
