Rave Network Overscan/Reviews
Nefroni - The Remiks (1997, Intro)
Review by Glenn Lunder
Nice c64 flavour to the opening, soon mutates into a generic techno-design driven little intro of no big interest we're afraid. Dot-cubes, Craid? Seriously... But I do dig "Boozgotchi"! =) The intro is 51k long, so I guess Scenario was a 64k compo.
According to the enclosed text file, this intro has problems with 060 processors, and they advise running without setpatch on such machines.
Tested A1200/030-50/2mb chip, 16mb fast/3.1.
Goes Lahti - The RNO+DCS Meeting Slideshow (2001, 15.04, Slideshow)
Review by Glenn Lunder
Nicely designed and with an ambient soundtrack, this slideshow really had absolutely nada to do in a demo competition =] But it's full of charm, mostly thanks to the happy faces of the drunk RNO+DCS members who obviously had a good time while making this fun-prod. It opens with a few roughly demo-style visuals, nicely designed (as mentioned) first presenting the production, then with credits. One question: How on earth do you make a screen consisting of a wireframe vector object, and simple graphics scrolled in from the left and right move anything LESS than smoothly on a 50mhz 030 JPV? God heavens knows it can be done, I've seen it done on A500's! Hell, I've seen it done on C64's! =] Hrmpf. Well, anyway, the main part of this is a slideshow with no additional design, just pictures fading in and out. The charm comes mostly from the fact that these people appear to be having great amounts of fun.
The slideshow is very system friendly, and you can flip screens with the normal Amiga-M method. It requires AGA or a graphics card, and at least an 020 processor. There is no mention of the memory requirements. The 'meeting' of the title occured in Lahti, Finland between the 23rd and 25th of february, at the same time as the World Championships in cross-country skiing was held there. Just in case you were wondering... =] This is the fourth in RNO's partyslideshow series, following Goes Aars (The Party '98), Go Stockholm&Helsinki (Remedy 2000 & Alternative2) and Goes Aldi (The Party 10).
Tested A1200/030-50/2mb chip, 16mb fast/3.1.
