Here is our second rushed Happy New Year production - Colour of ³ º Thought. ³ º ³ º This intro features a slightly extended 3D system than the one featured in ³ º Transmission. This is our first demo in HiColour and I ho pe everything ³ º works well. :) For that to occur you need at least a Vesa 1.2 with a ³ º 320x200 16 bit colour mode! Get Univbe as a last resort, i f you see no ³ º graphics. I realise that some crap cards refuse to support lowres hicolour ³ º modes but there wasn't much time to include support for other modes. Sorry.³ º ³ º Please use at least a 486 to run the demo. I haven't tried it under a ³ º lesser system but I guess it will crash horribly as there is no floating ³ º math emulator in the code! Use a Pentium like a 166MMX which is what I ³ º used to code this thing. On this computer (at least) everything runs OK ³ º so if in doubt go buy faster hardware. :) ³ º ³ º To enjoy NOR's techno soundtrack you need to have at least a GUS classic ³ º and an ULTRASND string setup correctly. The demo uses MXMPlayer from Cubic ³ º Team and it seems to work on my old GUS just fine. ³ º ³ º In the complete testing phase (about 5 minutes) I haven't seen this code ³ º crush. I also tried the demo under Win95 and it works fine so I guess it ³ º should work fine with WinNT and Win98. ³ º ³ º I would like to thank, NOR for his suggestions and some help with ³ º sychnronising this production. ³ º ³ º -- Enjoy.

Now, finally two month ³ º too late, here it is, the Windows 95 version of COT. As this version uses ³ º window's graphics drivers, most anyone with Win95 can view the demo and ³ º hear the sound. ³ º ³ º If there are any problems try to fiddle around with the options on the ³ º setup window. The fullscreen mode is not avalible on most cards so if in ³ º doubt switch that off. As for the sound system, it hasn't given me any ³ º trouble when tested under typical hardware setup. If it stuffs up it could ³ º only mean you got bad sound driver support for your card, the only way to ³ º fix this is either to get a new card or download new drivers. ³ º ³ º In my opinion, the DOS version is faster and sounds better but since the ³ º Windows version uses 24bbp colour (unless you are using a 16bbp desktop ³ º setting), it looks better. :-) ³ º -- RubiXcom/AM ³ º ³ ÈÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍSunÍ27thÍFebruaryÍ2000ÍÍÍÍ;
