GhostPool by Dr. Gandalf (Interlaced HAM version)

All Rights, Except Those Granted Herein, Reserved
1. Terms Of Distribution
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Permission for the non-commercial distribution of GhostPool by Dr. Gandalf
is hereby granted. Non-commercial distribution is defined as distribution
by user groups, individuals, bulletin boards, and not for profit, public
service public domain disk distributors.
Any manufacturer of hardware or software is specifically enjoined from the
public distribution of any part of GhostPool by Dr. Gandalf, except
if written arrangements are made with the author (not that I wouldn't be
willing to make such arrangements).
GhostPool by Dr. Gandalf is specifically NOT in the public domain.
Now that we have finished with that silliness,
2. How it was made:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The original images were generated using DBW-Render V2.0, DBWecker's
ray-tracing program. There are 155 images total, which is over
6 megabytes of information in the uncompressed form. After compression and
assembly with Byte-by-Byte's public domain sequencer, MOVIE, the finished
animation file is 407120 bytes long, which will run easily in a 1 meg Amiga.
The sounds were digitized with Perfect Sound fron SunRize.
3. How to view it:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
To play it from a CLI:
- Put GhostPool, GPOOL.AUD, the five .SND files, and a copy of
MOVIE (version 1.2 or higher) in the same directory or
on the same disk
- CD to that disk or directory
- Type
1> Movie GhostPool GPOOL.AUD
To play it from Workbench:
- Put GhostPool, GhostPool.info, GPOOL.AUD, the five .SND files, and
a copy of MOVIE (version 1.2 or higher) on the same disk
- Open the disk icon, and double-click the GhostPool icon.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hope you enjoy GhostPool. If you do, you can pay me back by
coming up with some interesting animation and graphics of your own and
distibuting them.
Note that there is also a non-interlaced version of GhostPool available,
which will run in a 512K Amiga.
