| The batman demo on CPC was ofcourse great and shows just what the machine is capable of and great to see a vector part mimicking one of the parts in that demo. You should try lossy compression methods. :-) |

| Great spin Martin!! Would have blown my brains off if this was presented in 1989.. Sure one hell of a routine for 2011 aswell, no doubt! Great effort! The tune in this one.. well... Next time. |

Martin, hats off! Some serious frametare was squeezed out of our old 8-bit friend.
@iAN: Awww I totally failed then... The remix is intended to be boring after 2nd loop, not 3rd... ;D |

Great :D
Too bad for the reused tune (it's getting boring after the 3rd time :P) |

Sweet!
More animations in demos and less rips. I used a lot of photographic images myself to some parts which only saw the light as previews.
The latest I did was the intro for VN#55, a simple 6 step animation, drawn from a 2 point perspective without rendering ;) |

66 frames?
Could you not just have changed the colors after 1/2 rotation?
Or do you?
Very impressive though ;-) |

| Oswald yes definitely, but I didn't want to use a lossy method. I think the original demo part used lossless compression so I wanted to keep to the same effect as much as possible. |

| I think a lossy charpack method would yield better results. |

More technical details:
66 Frames in total in ~39K
The small logo takes between 1 and 2 frames to decompress. 2 Frames when the logo is at its widest, 1 frame (less than obviously with the music raster time) when it is narrow.
The large logo takes between 2 and 4 frames, narrow to widest.
It is compressed with a simple RLE with extra skip code to skip data that is unchanged in memory between frames.
The compression can detect and copy identical blocks of data from the previous two frames if needed. This improves compression size but makes decompression slower because it has to copy memory.
If more memory was allowed, like 128K, then I would remove the block move compression which would make the decompression quicker.

| Nice! Looking forward for the other parts. (Dots tunnel, elastic zoomer, twister... :P ). As the asmtrad version of this part is running on hires and fullscreen(no borders) we must compensate that somehow on the c64, adding other stuff perhaps sprites or ?! They are using a 128k machine this makes somehow our version of the demo parts somewhat more impressive. |

| good work pal! fullscreen version is slower than the cpc version but small version is very smooth. rhino tried to make fun of c64 by showing even a small logo would be very slow. you just proved he was wrong (actually we all knew that ;)). but still we need some alternative speed optimizations to reach a closer speed for the fullscreen version. |

| Damn, you were faster. ;o) Looks pretty good. I´m interested in the technical details. How many frames do you display? What is the framerate, especially in peak frames? |

Following on from TAG3D
This deliberately does not include multiplexed sprites, just music. This is to make it as similar to the Amstrad demo section as is possible.
The decompression routine has also been optimised to be ~30% quicker than the version used in the TAD3D logo spin demo. |
