Name that effect
I would know if there is an usual name related to the cheap and absolutely oldschool fake rastersplit effect you can see in a later loading time in Vector Overdose, or in the most famous Geggin's part of Wonderland VI, which is basically a DYCP.
I searched for waving bars, wobbling bars, whatever-ing bars but nothing has come out :/ Saw that on Atari ST, and its author named it with the horrible definition of *gasp* "distorted rasters". |

+1, me too, being a boutade it's ironically a reasonable matching name :)
I've searched for "fakesplits" as hell 'coz that's the way I used to call'em back in the days, but, having found 0 references, I folded for "Copper Plasma" just because a historical reason exists. Hence, on "another site which is used to tag demos by effects too", I've just added "Copper Plasma AKA Fake Splits" ;)
...ready to swap'em in the case I will find a past reference for it tho... |

Weren't those simply called FLI-Splits back then? Using copper on C64 to me doesn't make too much sense imho.. |

Dano you're right too, but, conceive(!), neither there is FLI!
You know, some effects'names have been assumed from what their resemble, rather than what they truly are.
Groepaz recalled they're known as "rastersplits" since the eras, and of course they are absolutely no rastersplits but they could imitate'em ;) |

I think i would call this a plasma, even if it is the most simple form of plasma you could imagine. |

That's demoscene genetics! What do you obtain when you crossbreed a DYCP with a plasma? Right: a fakesplit! :)
What I've noticed is that it's a perfect hybrid between several effects: you can do it looks like a split (Wonderland VI), or like a plasma (Vector Overdose), being actually a DYCP yet.
This is the related page I've put up in "that other site about that other scene".
Oh apropos of, did I thank you all for the advices? ;) |
