Here are some highlights from last year's releases.
Fermi Paradox by Mercury (PC 64k intro)
pouet.net
Darkness Lay Your Eyes Upon Me by Conspiracy (PC 64k intro)
pouet.net
Higher State of Resolution by Dekadence (Amiga 64k intro)
pouet.net
Soleu by Collapse (PC 4k intro)
pouet.net
Instant God by Fairlight & CNCD (PC demo)
pouet.net
Through the Cracks by Still (PC demo)
pouet.net
True Colors by Still (PC demo)
pouet.net
If you can you should run them yourself instead of watching video captures. Especially the first Still demo gets completely destroyed by Youtube's video encoding.
I haven't followed the scene in ages. Has anyone ever managed to outdo Farbrausch's The Product?
Outdo in what way?
in any way
Take a look at the two 64k intros mentioned in and tell me what you think.
what's the point?
demoscene was dead since long ago
>tfw any random anime opening has more visual aestethic than the best demo of all times
>AMIGAAAAAA
>PANTS OFF
nope
>What's the point of people enjoying things that I don't enjoy
>plebs
>dreads
Don't know what this and now I'm going no further to find out.
are all these some kind of poorly made fanart upon Remeber Me?
>4KB ubershaders intro
>64KB ubershaders intro in C++
>Mega 64MB mp3 soundtrack Demo
>loldemoscene
No, Remember Me, as forgettable as it was, is fanart of these events
>mp3 demoscene
Wat
but art and zik (and code) was much better in Remember Me
you seem to be new to demonscene
wat
I don't get it
first one was jittery, glitchy and literally unwatchable on my computer. i was mind blown when i saw the youtube link and watched it from there. is these dependent to certain hardware?
I kid, I liked Remember me, I've just been waiting years to make that joke
What, that they've been aesthetically boring C3 looking events up till the last couple of them?
Seminar in progress
>twitch/revisionseminars
Last year Mercury has some pretty cool things,search for the interview they used some data from their workplace to simulate things.
LOL

thats 3 awards
fucking bs
Shader Showdown Qualification IN 30 MINUTES
GET READY
START MAKING DEMOS
Go to bed truck
I will sing you a lullaby about free software
garbage truck is gay
I remember seeing a thread about this last year as well, but I still don't get it.
Can someone please explain what this demo stuff is all about?
>t. 16 year old
or american
it's a special olympic gaems where coders demostrate their skills at writing unmaintainable c0d3z
It's not that impressive anymore as our hardware is quite limitless and nothing will impress anymore for it's limits.
shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh you dont know what you are talking about
you got the point
So, it's live rendered video? Like some cutscenes in games? I downloaded one but it was locked to a 1080p resolution though.
But is there any advantage to this over pre-rendering a video? Or is it all about showing off your hacker skills?
>Or is it all about showing off your hacker skills?
Yes.
It has always been about showing off skills and creativity.
demo - means demo version, so they just showing off demoversions of upcoming games.
>But is there any advantage to this over pre-rendering a video?
Smaller filesize. Also many codecs will absolutely destroy certain visuals.
It's like live rendered video, but it was amazing stuff when computers could not even render videos like today.
if they could not, then it wasn't possible?
That's where skills and creativity come into play.
so it was possible, after all?
Literally Meteoriks awards had category for that and just gave out an award.
>he thinks it is that easy
possible, hence computers could render that video, and only programmers couldn't program them properly
Usually there was no video at all, it was clever code.
although probably it was already too late as those computers were already obsolete
It's not impressive anymore, but it was impressive when you made a computer with 64k of RAM and 1MHz CPU render pseudo-3D environments, 3D objects, multiple layers of graphics, video, voice... or generally braking limits even the people who designed the systems didn't have an idea was possible.
>But is there any advantage to this over pre-rendering a video?
The whole point of demos is that they're computed in real time. Demoscene isn't about producing pretty videos, it's about producing pretty demos.
Can't wait for ASD to show everyone how it's done again.
They're participating right?
>could render that video
Except it is not video and is real time rendering of things unimaginable before on the system.
example
youtube.com
Sega master system nigga
Is this some sweet motherfucking Dubmood?
Who /rzr/ here?
Now demoscene is about beer.
The last time ASD released a demo at Revision/Breakpoint was Breakpoint 2008 so I wouldn't hold my breath.
Shader Showdown starting
sup
I also talked to him once on FB
Wew lad, that's a weak collection.
>he doesn't even own the Force de Frappe vinyl
Place your bets
>implying i can find it
Fizzer a cute
for
Why do they not indent their code
reee
>falling for Sup Forums memes
not even once
>making your code readable
>Sup Forums memes
uh ok?
>making your code readable
fuckings to 14m3r5 to be honest
Since today computers are "limitless", why don't they write a demo that runs on 16 Gigs of RAM and produces real-life like graphics in 144 Fps on UHD resolution?
because they aren't. saying that computers have no limits is a meme.
Because they do lol
>pouet.net
run it on 4K
Fucking shader wizards, man.
>tron-like shit that can be rendered in 3d max
>no human faces, no complex lighting on complex surfaces, no voxels, no waving in the wind neckbeard hair
I don't even care about 64k, just make something feasible
whatever man,you should try for once see how it goes.
DICE is always looking for talent on Revision.
Fizzer wins
>instead of making program hat consumes 64Mb of memory, they make 64K program that eats all available memory
every time
