Well it's the first day of 1996 now, as I write this. I'm apparently a bit late, but I thought these things go out on Monday. Well at least now I can wish you a happy new year! In the past week, the Party 5 happened and we all heard how badly organized it was. Again. I'm not sure whose fault this is, but I know it's gotta be hard to organize a 3000 person party. I just hope someone figures out how to do it right. Necros spent what little money he has to fly all the way there and went home disappointed. IOR flew even further and didn't even do as well. =) Sorry if this is a bit short, but I have stuff to do still before I get this out. I hope my first demonews satisfies all your needs. If you don't like it, print it out on nice soft paper and use it in the bathroom =) Oh, one more thing. As you may know, I handle the music section of our archive. If you have questions or comments about this or the music ratings we include here and in our 00index.txt files, please mail me at diablo@wcarchive.cdrom.com. I try to include as much explanation about archive procedures as possible in the .message files in each directory. The music reviews are another thing. Some people like them, some hate them. If you have a particular like or dislike, please mail me. Please include reasons or alternatives. It doesn't help me to get messages like "Your reviews suck." Diablo / Hornet - diablo@wcarchive.cdrom.com =----------------------------------[The Party 1995 Demos Reviewed]--[Phoenix]-= This won't be your average party compo review. I've added a little section to reflect my personal disgust toward the recent attitude in the scene; that is, to imitate groups more popular than yours. You'll see... [From Snowman: Please note that the "Overall" fields below are _not_ the same thing as the file ratings listed above. Where Phoenix has given ratings for TP5 entries with respect to each other, the demos under "Demos:General" are given ratings with respect to all other demos in the scene.] Name : Aquaphobia Effects: *** Group : Realtech Design : **** Filename: aquafix.zip Music : ** Country : France Overall: *** Place : Not shown [x] Low, booming intro music [x] Phong blob [ ] Member names in intro [x] Techno music [ ] Lens flare [ ] chrmface.3ds [ ] Colorful tunnel [ ] duck.3ds or dolphin.3ds [x] Group Logo in corner Who would've thought, a SVGA vector-demo by Realtech? This one takes cues from several other demos, like Bill G Force/Complex (lens flares/ logo), Nation Zero/Jamm (cubes), and Cyboman 2 (school of fish). Also, the title comes from a Purple Motion S3M. However, they did a good job with the underwater theme. I wonder if the manta/seahorse textures come from the same critter-library EMF/Plant used (see later)? The end pic/music are nice. Name : Encore Effects: ** Group : The Plant of Leather Moomins Design : *** Filename: hardcore.zip Music : *** Country : Finland Overall: **+ Place : 19th [x] Low, booming intro music [ ] Phong blob [ ] Member names in intro [x] Techno music [ ] Lens flare [ ] chrmface.3ds [x] Colorful tunnel [ ] duck.3ds or dolphin.3ds [ ] Group logo in corner Well, considering Croaker/Halcyon made the music for this demo, it's no surprise where the design came from. Watch Karma by Halcyon or Avena Kinetik by Distrosion for a similar feel. A worthy effort. Name : Circuit Effects: **** Group : Analogue Design : *** Filename: an_circf.zip Music : *** Country : The Netherlands Overall: ***+ Place : 17th [ ] Low, booming intro music [x] Phong blob [x] Member names in intro [x] Techno music [x] Lens flare [ ] chrmface.3ds [x] Colorful tunnel [ ] duck.3ds or dolphin.3ds [ ] Group Logo in corner This was the only Dutch demo entry as many from there were cut out of the compo. As a result, an Anti-TP5 intro was made (check out antitro2.zip). I think this demo deserved better than 17th, it had full 32k color, some nice objects and good graphics. Name : Money Effects: ***+ Group : Hyperopia Design : ** Filename: money.zip Music : ** Country : Yugoslavia Overall: *** Place : 13th [ ] Low, booming intro music [ ] Phong blob [ ] Member names in intro [x] Techno music [ ] Lens flare [ ] chrmface.3ds [x] Colorful tunnel [ ] duck.3ds or dolphin.3ds [ ] Group Logo in corner Well, through all the turmoil going on in this country there are those courageous enough to keep on coding. The only unique part of this demo is the intro screen where a bunch of cubes fly around the screen to form a Hyperopia logo, this is pretty neat. The rest is the usual tunnel/rippling/rotation effects. Some decent gfx. The music is standard dancefloor but a little dull for a demo, and breaks up a bit in the middle. Name : 6th Sense Group : Realtech Filename: rt_6sens.zip Country : France Place : 11th Sorry, but I couldn't fairly rate this. With my Vesa 1.2 driver it locks up after the logo, and with Univbe 5.1 it locks up after announcing the 64k color part. BTW I have an ET4000W32 chip. A bugfix is in need. [From Snowman: I too had this problem. However, I found out that the Sony Trinitron monitor I was using would not synch to the correct mode (even with UNIVBE). My 4 year old Samsung Sensor monitor did the job though. Go figure. :) I liked this production a lot and gave it a **** overall.] Name : Cocoon Effects: **** Group : Surprise! Productions Design: *** Filename: spcocoo?.zip on Hornet Music: **** Country : Poland Overall: ***+ Place : 10th [ ] Low, booming intro music [x] Phong blob [ ] Member names in intro [x] Techno music [x] Lens flare [ ] chrmface.3ds [x] Colorful tunnel [ ] duck.3ds or dolphin.3ds [ ] Group Logo in corner This is the last demo of S!P-Poland before they join the new Pulse group (see below). Scorpik once again made a cool soundtrack, and the effects, some of which are in faked-18-bit-color, are numerous and well done, although not extremely unique. I feel this demo should've placed a little higher than 10th. If you like Cocoon, you'll also want to check out S!P-Poland's last demo, "Dreamsteal". Name : Mind Body Soul Effects: *** Group : Omicron Design: ** Filename: mbs.arj/a01 Music: *** Country : Sweden Overall: *** Place : 9th [x] Low, booming intro music [x] Phong blob (many!) [ ] Member names in intro [x] Techno music [ ] Lens flare [ ] chrmface.3ds [x] Colorful tunnel [ ] duck.3ds or dolphin.3ds [x] Group Logo in corner Nice bump mapping. Transparent phong blob. And stuff. Name : E-Beat Effects: *** Group : Masque Design : *** Filename: msqebeat.zip Music : ** (can be changed) Country : Germany Overall: **+ Place : 7th [ ] Low, booming intro music [x] Phong blob [ ] Member names in intro [x] Techno music (can be changed) [ ] Lens flare [ ] chrmface.3ds [ ] Colorful tunnel [ ] duck.3ds or dolphin.3ds [ ] Group Logo in corner Kudos to Masque for their idea behind this "demo", to arrange effects according to the frequency of the music. Unfortunately, there are only 9 or so effects and they start repeating after about 30 seconds. So I think E-Beat placed a little too high, for what it has. Name : Reve Effects: **** Group : Pulse Design : *** Filename: pls_reve.zip Music : *** (**** if you into Country : France weird French stuff) Place : 5th Overall: ***+ [x] Low, booming intro music [ ] Phong blob [x] Member names in intro [ ] Techno music [ ] Lens flare [ ] chrmface.3ds [ ] Colorful tunnel [ ] duck.3ds or dolphin.3ds [ ] Group Logo in corner This is demo is from a new group consisting of the what used to be Infiny, plus in the future Distorsion and S!P Polish section. Polka Brothers (Amiga) fans will be in for a treat, but hardcore Second Reality fans should probably keep away. Has complex vector-scenes with a dude sky-surfing around them, and some still gfx by Antony. Shad's "rock" music is uhh, interesting. :) Name : State of Hate Effects: **** Group : Dubius Design : *** Filename: state.zip Music : **** Country : Finland Overall: ***+ Place : 4th [ ] Low, booming intro music [x] Phong blob [x] Member names in intro [ ] Techno music [ ] Lens flare [x] chrmface.3ds [x] Colorful tunnel [ ] duck.3ds or dolphin.3ds [ ] Group Logo in corner To be honest, I was more impressed with Dubius' ASM95 demo, "Optimal Torque". This one has many effects based on that, among other places. The tunnel is reminiscent of the one in Realtech's "DX Project", and the dog.3ds in between two rings, I've think I've seen SHADOW an effect VOLUME like that DOPE before, hmm.. the music is borderline techno (too slow to be I guess), but I really like it. Name : Dream Effects: *** Group : Jamm Design : **** Filename: dream.zip Music : ***+ Country : Finland Overall: ***+ Place : 2nd [x] Low, booming intro music [x] Phong blob [ ] Member names in intro [x] Techno music [ ] Lens flare [ ] chrmface.3ds [ ] Colorful tunnel [ ] duck.3ds or dolphin.3ds [ ] Group Logo in corner Believe it or not, this is Jamm's very first full length demo. And they didn't do a half-bad job. While there are not very many effects (blobs, odd voxels, project-xyz-like tunnel (but in color), etc), the design and graphics (by Visualize) are excellent. The music played by Midas .5 beta is very high quality. Worth checking out. Name : Caero Effects: ****+ Group : Plant & EMF Design : ***+ Filename: caero.zip Music : **** Country : Finland Overall: **** Place : 1st [ ] Low, booming intro music [ ] Phong blob [x] Member names in intro [ ] Techno music [x] Lens flare [ ] chrmface.3ds [x] Colorful tunnel [ ] duck.3ds or dolphin.3ds [ ] Group Logo in corner This was the not only the winner of the TP5 PC demo compo, but also the only one that made it to my diskmag voting list :). Saracen/EMF teamed up with Mik Sair/Plant for a valiant coding effort, with Beatnik doing gfx and Dune/any-Finnish-group-I-feel-like doing the great music. It starts out in the usual Dope-ish manner, followed by a tunnel (sure), then the first vector-scene. It has VERY life-like fish floating around a seafloor. Following this is another scene with butterflies (once again realistic) flying above lilypads (nice vectors) and into the sky. Third is a group of firefly-lights swarming around a group of tall stones in a dark scene, then the stones change into translucent pillars. It ends with a form-changing picture. Unfortunately, the demo never seems to return to DOS, although Escape did the job for me. Very impressive for two weeks work. Phoenix / Kosmic - vossa@rpi.edu =-----------------------------[The Party 1994 CD Reviewed]--[Snowman and Ior]-= _____Introduction Hello all, Snowman here. About 2 months ago, I ordered "The Party 1994 CDROM" from your friend and mine, IOR / Hornet. Just for kicks, I decided that I'd write an e-mail to the Hornet gang _while_ I was opening up the CD for the first time. IOR subsequently replied to my comments. Two months ago, I told IOR that I would do a review of this CD for DemoNews. Unfortunately, by now I've forgotten most of what I thought about this CD. :) I went back to my old logs and came across the e-mail that IOR and I sent back and forth. Using my artistic license (making up some of IOR's words), I now present to you "The Party 1994 CD Reviewed", as converted from e-mail. Please note that IOR has attended TP94, ASM95, and is currently in Europe just waiting for TP95 to begin. For those of you attending TP95, I'd like to also mention that Stony / Hornet will be there. Just walk up to him and say "Hi Stony, I'm Snowman / Hornet" and he'll be friendly to you. :) _____The Review SNO: OK gang, I will now open up my two snail mails... online! IOR: Sounds like fun! SNO: First mail, "Get a VISA Card." Only 5.9% fixed APR financing until May 1996 when you then pay $4999.55 per month low service charge. IOR: Doh! SNO: Second mail, The Party 1994 CD. Opening... Yes! Bubble-wrap! [making popping noises now] Oh, there's this CD inside too. But who cares about that. I got bubble-wrap! OK, the front cover has a child (little boy with blonde hair) being held up by the back of his collar by this green sharp-looking demon. "This CD is full of the best demos, music and graphics for PC and Amiga." "An ASSEMBLY Organizing Production... THE PARTY 4 CD. Try this at home." [note the omission of "don't"] This CD is heavy and shrink-wrapped. Still haven't opened it up yet. IOR: Well open the blasted thing already. What do you think? SNO: Just hold on dude... I want to look at the back of the case first. [looking at back] - 100 demos, 190 musics, 120 gfx, etc. etc. - Cubic Player v1.5 - New version of F-Prot. [hehe... Remember the virus on ASM94 CD?] - Whoa! "All the entries from Juhla 2 and the best from Abduction 95". Remember TP94:, JUH95B:, and ABD95:? We are missing graphics, music and demos from these parties and now I can make sure that ftp.cdrom.com has a full set. This looks and feels like a very professional production. [opening plastic wrap now] OK, with the ASM94 CD, you could enter the CD-ROM competition. If your name was drawn, you won a free trip to ASM95. I want to know who won! Anyway, the competition for this one is "If your name is drawn, you win a free Zytel modem." It says results of the CD-ROM drawing will be posted to comp.sys.ibm.pc.demos, so look for this in mid to late December. Hmm... IOR: Actually, it's not as bad as it sounds. They're giving away _6_ ZYXel ISDN modems. WOW. SNO: "Producer: Markus Kantonen" <-- who is that? IOR: That is Moku, ex-Accession member. Prez of ASSEMBLY Organizing. All around cool guy :) SNO: The insert is so huge that I had trouble pulling it out of the case. (23 pages, it's no wonder the thing felt heavy) The style of language used in the "Opening Words" suggests that the end recipient of this CD may not be from the demo scene. IOR: Again, Moku :) SNO: Very nice printing color. There appear to be some enhancements in the GUI (compared to The Assembly 1994 CD). Whoa! The pictures are going to be displayed in 640x480x256 so have your VESA driver loaded. There is a new mode for Cubic Player called "Big GSA" and it says that a Pentium or DX4 is recommended. OK, I've read through the documentation, let's go try this thing out. [time passes...] Just got done playing with the CD. This is a really groovy production, and I would recommend you all get a copy. I'm not sure if this is what I saw, but it appears that at TP94, they had a bulletin board (and I ain't talking about a BBS) at the party. Groups could just come over and put a memo saying "Looking for graphician, come see Snowman in room 144", etc. This is a GREAT idea and I would highly recommend doing it at NAID. IOR: Yes, that is indeed what you saw. They also had one at Asm '95. Cute idea and it has some use, although it's hard to find a specific message. And equally hard to describe where to find yourself ;) SNO: There are several really odd pictures of people who painted their computers whacky colors. There are 3 audio tracks on the CD, none of which I could get to play through the default player (Cubic Player, which was playing the other music just fine). When I say "audio tracks", I mean like tracks on a CD and not an .s3m or .mod. IOR: Yes, I discovered this about a month after I opened my copy. I was really bored, and I put it in my Audio CD player. Lo and behold! 4 tracks are detected. So I skipped the 50 minute first track (the data) and moved on to the next three. Three "decent" techno tracks. Third one is kinda cool. Nice rez at the beginning of the first. SNO: There is a ton of stuff from Juhla 2.5 and Abduction and TP94. Our demo archive is going to be a _really_ complete archive. There are descript.ion files for most directories. For you non-4DOS people, that means that by typing "dir", you can get descriptions of all the files automatically. Yee-haw! IOR: I hope you enjoy the CD :) And let me send you a little order to include in the next copy of DN. Remember, this is for North American purchasers _only_. Euro purchasers must get their copy straight from ROMWare or ASSEMBLY Organizing. I am not a European Distributor. This is what I've come up with. Tell me if you think I should change anything on it. SNO: This order form looks good dude. I'll include it below. _____Ordering Information Wow! Now you too can own the "The Party 4" CD-ROM! =) Previously available only in Europe through ROMWare, I have a supply of the "TP4 CD-ROM : Try This At Home" sitting near me. And now, I'm offering them to you, my fellow North Americans. :) I only have about 50 or 60 CD's remaining, so act fast, because it's not very likely for me to get more :) Just clip this, fill it out, print it, and mail it to: Jesse Rothenberg (IOR) PO Box 100 Vista, CA 92085 U.S.A. -----------------------------[Cut Here]----------------------------------- Yes! Send me the TP4 CD-ROM! I want ____ CD's! Each CD sells for US$35.00 Please add a US$2.00 for Shipping and Handling for each CD ordered My mailing address is: Name: Street Address: City, State/Province: Area Code: Number of CD's: * US$37.00 ($35/CD + $2 S&H/CD) Total Amount Included: Cast only please! Make sure that it is well hidden in the envelope, or bad things might happen with disgruntled Postal Employees. And US dollars only, please. -----------------------------[Cut Here]------------------------------------- Thanks for your support! And in case you're curious, I am not making any profits on this venture. :) _____Conclusion Well, we hope you enjoyed this little unconventional CD review. IOR and Stony will be bringing to DemoNews "The Party 1995 Report" in the next couple of weeks.
