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".

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

right, but the effect I guess originates from the amiga.

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? ;)

I've also used "rasterbender" in this demo: Unbounded, and I don't think I came up with the term myself. I vote for Copperfield too.

Is this what we're talking about?

Splitter splitter

Charlatan charlatan

I've always used BF Demo names for the above effects.

Oh nono, that's FLI stuff. What we're talking about is nothing but dycp with graphics, follow the links to see what we meant.

..than one, i would simply call VSP. ..which makes VSP just an even more simple version of a plasma :P, or?

I used to call this effect for SLR
Sliding/Slizering Raster Lines ;)

(Sliding/Slizering) depend on drunkness back then I think we also made one in an old Triad demo.... back in 1988/89.. bit unsure... don't remember really...

I think I wrote that in the scroll text for that part... (SLR)
