- RSI Demo Maker Documentation
- ------------------------------
-
- So you went and copied the best demo maker ever produced and went
- straight into the program without reading the dox first (don't we
- all ?). But now after hours of mega frustration and sweat you finally
- get around to reading the instructions.
-
- Up until now there have been none, but Blackbeard of Pendle Europa
- ripped its fucking arse off and found out the following....
-
-
- Music Routine
- -------------
- Click on 'EDIT' to choose which module type you are loading. Most
- popular is the Noisetracker selection.
-
-
- Music
- -----
- Click on load then wait for the directory to be loaded, then select
- the module by pointing to it with the mouse pointer and clicking the
- left mouse button (surprise surprise !). Then click on Ok or Load
- depending which version you are using.
-
-
- Upper And Lower Scrolltext Codes
- --------------------------------
- Shift & S1-5 This should give you a grey 'S' followed by the number
- chosen.
- ie. S3
- This gives the scrolltext its speed value and the
- default is 3.
-
- Shift & B1-3 This gives you copper pulse bars.
- Choices are left,right & middle spread. You can also
- edit the copper with 'EDIT' SCROLLBARCOLS.
-
- Shift & M0-1 Mirror Effect 0=off 1=on. Used in conjunction with
- the next command. The mirror only works with the
- 32 point fonts.
-
- Shift & C1-4 This is the colour backdrop for your mirror.
- You have 4 to edit.
-
- Shift & O0-1 This operation switches between 16 pt and 32 pt fonts
- in the upper and lower scroll areas.
- 0 = 32pt / 1 = 16pt
-
- Shift & J1-4 This jumps your text. Only works with 16pt fonts.
-
- Shift & H Holds Your text for a while.
-
- Shift & L0-8 Displays a little logo for a while.
-
- Shift & W1-6 Wibbles the 32pt font. 6 different effects.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Loading Your Own Graphics
- -------------------------
- Because D-Paint saves it's pictures in it's own crunched format, we
- must first convert the image. A simple IFF converter will do it
- although I recommend KEFCONVERT on the Deadzone Troopers Utils No. 1.
-
- 1. Load your image into the converter.
- 2. Set the 'SAVE FILE AS' to IFF.
- 3. Cut your picture with the sizes given below.
- 4. Save em. they are ready, but they must be exact !!
-
- Little Logo 16 Cols 320 By 54
- Big Logo 16 Cols 320 By 158
- 32pt Font 16 Cols 320 By 192
- 16pt Font 1pl 1 Col 320 By 48
- 16pt Font 8 Cols 320 By 48
- 8pt Font 8 Cols 320 By 16
- Vectorstars 4 Cols 128 By 15 8 Anims
- Starfields 4 Cols 48 By 9 3 Sizes
- Bobs 8 Cols 160 By 16 8 Anims
-
- Use the other utils on the Deadzone Troopers RSI Extras Disks to
- create Vector Objects & Vector Balls.
-
-
- Best just to mess around with all of these, some pleasing effects can
- be created with the right co-ordinates, so here are some guiders
- for various effects.
-
-
- Plasma
- ------
- This has 2 sine waves you must control ie. XADD1 - XADD2.
-
- XADD & YADD are raster separation variables.
- Speed etc. speak for themselves. High speed numbers reverse the
- direction of flow.
-
-
- Vectorstars
- -----------
- When used in conjunction with a Vector Object, use the same X,Y,Z,
- co-ordinates for both to create a 3D effect.
-
- Most of the controls are self evident, but mess around.
-
-
- Vectorballs
- -----------
- Angles X,Y,Z - Start Angles
- Rotate X,Y,Z - Rotation Speed
- Add X,Y,Z - Object Path
-
-
- Bob Effect
- ----------
- BobNo - Starting Anim Frame
- BobAnim - Ending Anim Frame
-
-
- Of course selection is easy as 123 with all of the above effects, just
- point the mouse pointer at any number or effect and click ya left
- button. All the menu contents can be 'EDIT'ed by colour. The demo
- maker has an inbuilt copper editor and graphic editor so ya should
- have no problems.
