Demo effect sequencing

How does everyone script their effects these days? (e.g., if you're calling effect1 for 100 frames, then the init for effect2, then effect2 for the next 240 frames etc)

Ad hoc timers and flags, or some kind of scripting language compiled to an include, or?

groepaz: Nope, it uses a global frame counter + a small script that calls all the parts and waits ofr timing marks. In fact the music was synched to the demo, Fanta loves to have pain in the arse, and also he deserved it :-P Of course we threw over all timing marks just a few days before X :-P The only part synching to the music is the turn disc part and it also manipulates the pattern sequence when done.

Don't listen to drunk Oxyronmembers! :-) Musicians are lazy bums anyway, it is good to offload the work to them :-)

Bitbreaker, Groepaz:

In other words. Yes, it's much better to have musicians synchronise your lamzor effects. coz musicians feel rythm and have sense for drama*, unlike coders!



*some coders are drama queens, but that's not exactly the same.
