c64 - *Static Effect*
Some demo`s feature what i call a static effect (the kind of effect you can see when you pull the ariel lead out of the back of old style televisions (I say old style televsions as most televisions these days switch the screen to a black screen).
What demo features the best static effect?
I`ve seen afew, some use the screen area only, some use the side borders too and the best versions use the whole screen plus all the borders :D
I the reason i ask is, i`m working on the intro to a demo called *ZEROs & ONEs* and it is to feature full screen static plus some more stuff /WEC :)

Probably not quite the same, but XESS2-Rewind has an effect like that when you press Run Stop/Restore. |

Hi El Stocko! Your Scrolling Message Editor is a classic, around 1987 I used to pump out lots of demos made with it :) |

Thanks dude 8D
Simple idea, some people loved it, some people loathed it when Cnet got swamped by character graphics demos :) |

Sorry to go off topic as well but Stocko, I have to tell you that Xess Rewind was one of my fave demos when I just started out, and later influenced our 'comeback' demo Rewinder X (Rewinder X), and not just in name ;) |

Yay, lets have a thread all about ME :)
No, thanks mate. I happened to spot your demo this very day. TBH I had no idea people were still coding 64 demos nowadays. :O |

Hmm, o.k., it's not a real "static" but i remember going whooohaaa as I saw A. Crowther's TV test pattern effect in Gryphon after pressing reset. That was around 1984-85. |
