Spreadpoint is a demo group most fondly remembered for its coders. Buddha
brought us the first texturemapped vectors and MasterSEKA, while Mnemotron
brought us many improvements in the then-popular SoundTracker series. Thomas
is the coder of the 'World Charts', where Autopsy/Hoodlum is editor...
German coder TIP is identical to TIP/TNM, who coded the original
MasterCruncher and later the first 8 channel music program, Oktalyzer.
1990 - Austrian coder Depeche (code train gfx, new 89) left in 1990. He
later turned up briefly in Defjam, before leaving the scene for good. Their
german bbs (sysop Merlin) was shut down ca 07/90. Austrians Mike (code),
Tilt (code) and Matthew joined from Subway ca 10/90. Austrian founder Mike
(code) left in 1990, leaving the group without a leader. He has later worked
for Microsoft, and is today coding software for cellular phones. Munster
took over organizing after Mike left.
German graphician Ucom left.
Lunatic rejoined Interactive.
Frenchman Daryl (ex The Silents) joined Shining.
Slash (swi trade), Matthew (aut, ex Subway), Tilt (aut code crack, ex
Subway), GeorgeII (aut code crack) and Flash joined Defjam.
Belgian trader Dr.Doolittle (new 05/90) quickly joined The Silents 06/90.
Belgian sysops Cocaine and Dr.Avalanche ('FLYING SAUCER', ex Adept) quickly
went on to Alpha Flight (RAW5^SLH11). Another source said Cocaine joined
Addonic, yet another said Uli was sysop of 'FLYING SAUCER' and that HE
joined Alpha Flight. The information on Uli as sysop of 'F S' seem to be
correct, making my confusion total. Can anyone clarify?

review: This demo is probably the first ever Amiga demo to feature real
texture mapped vectors. Unfortunately the demo itself is of the 'read a
lot of scrolltext and the demo appears eventually' variety (which I hate)
but it's still worth a look if only for novelty's sake. The demo uses
Buddha's own Overload system, so it's impossible to manually decrunch :(
