- demo Linux Windows Chimera by Halcyon
- Good to see that some people are creating something what 'They' want to create instead of trying to fit into a piece of software they is called a 'demo'.
- Jeesus what a lot of absurd/extreme comments this product has produced!
With chimera, you either get it or you dont. If you don't, then thats just too bad for you...
I've been checking out 'demos' for more than 10 years. (First demos i can remember was mental hangover by scoopex, and the kefrens demos on amiga). I never have been active in the demoscene, but just kept on checking them out just as I check out movies, games, literature and music.
Ever since the major shift from amiga to pc and from vga to vesa 16->24->32bit->opengl etc.. i've noticed that things generally stay the same.
Only the res, fps, colordepth, layers and polys went up. Imo these gfx parameters are totally seperate from what you actually 'do' on screen, thats what its about!!
Not if the music only has 4chs or if true raytracing is used or how many polys this object has. (The motion in Chimera is slow because thats what the artists wanted it to be!)
I'm glad that some groups finally are evolving from so-called demo creators to simply creators. - rulezadded on the 2002-10-15 14:08:40
