Wanted: Demos with looooong scrolltexts
I love oldskool demos with long (and entertaining) scrolltexts. But these are very rare (especially nowadays :( ).
Which demos do you know, that have a loooong scrolltext and what is *the* longest scrolltext on C64 ?
I know of the following ones:
"World Record" by Super Swap Sweden 1988(about 70 kb texts)
"165 Blocks Scroller" by Gloom / Oxyron 1991
and if I remember right, there was also one of those Crest multipart demos around 1991 which had a part with a long scroller.
Do you know some more ? and who has the longest (scrolltext ;) ? |

I've done some, "Dutch Gold/Focus" comes to mind (with 100 blocks of text written in one go, all by myself). There's also quite a lot of text in "Dark Tales/Focus" as well. |

I think there is some old discussion on here on this topic. Perhaps you can find the information you're looking for there? |

I think the crest demo you're talking about is McDonald's Restaurant which has a $13000 long scroll text. The one in Piece of Cake that Kyle mentioned is a bit longer - about $13B00. Don't know if it's the longest - would be interesting to know :)
(this has allready been talked about a bit in http://noname.c64.org/csdb/forums/?roomid=7&topicid=6008&showal.. but no conclusion was made in that thread) |

There's a "The Cops" demo called Bullshitter, and a Gloom demo called Bullshitter 2 which also have long scrolltexts. |

I've written a bunch of long scrolltexts in my life, the longest is probably the one in the Scroll-record part of Digital Force. It's not very interesting though :) |
