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". |

I remember that "real" raster splits were simply called "raster splits", and it was possible to have a handful of splits with the normal timing.
And I think I remember that there was a (Censor Design?) one-file-demo that talked about new illegal opcodes that allowed fast timing for raster splits etc., which were actually the above shown FLI-rastersplits. The talk about opcodes was just a fairy story. I think this was about the time when FLI was invented (the 37-chars wide FLI).
I would vote for raster splits, even if it's technically no real split of backgroundcolor in a raster line. |

Damn, this thread makes me wanna do some more of this kind of effects, whatever the correct term might be. But I gotta resist and try finishing some routines for a change instead of starting new ones all the time. |
