System requirements

a dos compatible system, with raw boot or himem.sys or emm386, qemm or other
vcpi compliant memory manager. this intro doesnt work with some crappy systems
like windoze or os/2 (tm and stuff).

a vga or compatible grafix card. vlb or pci one will greatly improve
performance.

well, a 386 or better cpu. fast 486 is strongly recommended. this intro will
work even on 386sx25 but it wont amaze you then. it was developed on
486dx2/80 and is meant to work on similiar system. i haven't bought 486 to
code 386 stuff, right ?

a bit of memory. actually about 550k of low memory and 1.5 meg free of high
will do. one dude said it has worked on system with 2 megs of total memory.

a soundblaster or compatible soundcard if you want music. sorry folks,
still no gus support. i have just got gus (on monday) and today its
weednesday so i really didnt have time to code gusplayer (although i have
started). well, maybe i will finish it till friday.
(uhh dont try mega-em or sbos, they wont help!)

Credits

are really simple

Some lyrics from Technomancer

uff, it seems the intro is finished. Moonlighter is finishing music and
i have some spare time so i'll write some stupid texts.

it was coded entirely in 32 bit protected mode. all effects are calculated
realtime.

the intro uses my own dos extender and sb module replay routine. some
dudes asked about it so i dont know if i ever dare to release that stuff
bcoz i think it still needs lotsa work. besides i dont think that my crappy
extender is good thing to start coding in protected mode. it doesnt have
any documentation. at least it seems to be pretty stable and bug free.
irqs work like god meant them and i havent experienced any compatibility
problems. but if you encounter any let me know.

my sb player doesnt work on some sound galaxy soundcards. it seems to
have problems with initialization. it must be something weird with those
cards bcoz on every other card i have met it works ok. anyway, if you
run some stuff that uses soundblaster right before running my player it
should work ok. and if you buy me or lend me such card i will make a bug
fix.

trobleshooting on this intro

this intro doesnt work because

you didnt turn on your machine
you use some weird multitasker
you have deleted it before running
you have run it on your grandma's powerfull PC XT machine
you have run it on your dad's mega cool PC AT 286 computer
you didnt wash your hands before touching keyboard
you have given wrong answers to questions about your soundcard IO port
and IRQ level
your soundcard doesnt use dma channel 1
you have tried to start it from windoze
you have tried to start it from os/2 (tm)
you dont have enough memory, get rid of TSRs, disk caching programs
and unnecesary drivers, try raw boot
your karma isnt good today, try again tomorrow

So long and thanks for all the fish...........................................
