Hi there.

This is Paul "Technical Fred" Townsend at the keyboard again.
Here is yet another one of our AMOS demos. This one was finally completed on
21 August 1991 at 1:30am.

Digitising Service

If you would like any pictures digitised for your own demos, but don`t have

If I am in AND awake then I will answer your call, otherwise, please talk

Technical Details

1. This Demo was written with AMOS.

2. Compiled using the AMOS compiler extension.

3. The demo automatically detects how much memory you have
   and runs accordingly i.e it WILL run on a 512K machine but misses out all
   the clever fade in effects, it just displays the piccys in the usual
   "Let`s just flash it on the screen and be another boring slideshow" manner
   If you have at least 1Mb then the demo springs to life.

4. It does not have any 3D routines in it yet because the 3D extension only
   arrived yesterday and I have not sussed it all out yet (But look out for
   future demos from Technical Fred Software because they will DEFINITELY
   contain a bit of 3D.)

5. Because this demo was written in AMOS, it is Ozone friendly ..ooops I
   mean Operating System friendly. i.e Yes it will work from your workbench
   or if you boot up with this disk it will load a workbench of it`s own.
   Then you just click on the slideshow icon and away you go !.
   If you exit from the demo by holding down the "Q" key as suggested,
   then the demo exits back to Workbench and frees all the memory it used
   (unlike some other silly demos that the only way out is to reset.)

6. The piccys used in this demo have come from several sources, they were
   digitised using a CCTV camera with Digiview and colour filters.

7. The music was borrowed from disks that are in the P.D. the people
   responsible for writing the music are listed on the credits screen. I hope
   that the original creators of the music do not mind me spreading their
   creations a little further.

8. Provided there is enough memory then when the demo has played through
   once then the music is changed. (Note on a 512K machine it may not manage
   to play both pieces of music.)

9. If the demo runs out of memory then it should just return to workbench.



                   One final note to AMOS programmers
                   ==================================

If you would like to see how this demo was done and would like to see the
source code then please phone me on the number given above. I will then make
arrangements to send you a disk.
