| Detects what type of OPL chip is on your sound card - An ad for audiotrix more than anything else. No code. It looks like there should be more files in the archive than there are.

The Shed BBS loader source by naich /code/demosrc/bbsintro/the_shed.zip
| 10 Jan 1997 (catalog date)
11,922 bytes
| Download FTP scene.org
| Rating:
| Source for a BBS loader with smoothe text scrolling (horizontal), dual layer starfield, and nifty fade out - Good comments, rather large source as it could use a random number generator as opposed to a table and some other (obvious?) size optimization concerns.

1k source by Frenzy of SparC /code/demosrc/intros/1k_sourc.zip

| Rating:
| source to a 1k intro (911 bytes). Easy to follow code, but it's ideal you understand it all in the first place. Odd use of fpu (uses lots of fi[blah] instructions... why not take advantage of extra precision?)

| A complete listing of the 80x86 opcodes - Great reference for those learning assembler and those needing to double check opcodes. Dubious clock listings (none for pentium.)

Collection of ASM sources by ? of Blue Nose Productions /code/hardware/general/asm_good.zip

| Rating:
| Lots of ASM sources, mostly for hardware and BIOS routines - It's somewhat difficult to find what you want, but the comments tell you what you need to know (but not what you have to do) to get everything compiled. Looks like a great source for the cut & paste coder. Given the nature of the routines, I'd say that was the intended purpose of this release.

FreePack DOS extender by Narech Koumar of Supernar Systems Intl. /code/hardware/pmode/dos32a.zip

| Download FTP scene.org
| Rating:
| Another DOS extender option. I didn't test this for usefulness. I doesn't look any more difficult to learn to use than Adam Seychell's (sp?) Dos32 or Thomas Pytel/Charles Scheffold's Pmode/w. How well it functions is another story. Full documentation available. Comes with a tetris clone presumeably made using the extender. No source.

| Rating:
| Reboots & boot sector util. A utility that'll reboot your computer (which isn't terribly useful) and to read/write boot sectors. It's a good, hard to find utility for someone just poking into that sort of stuff.

| Rating:
| An assembler for those used to 68k assemblers - Avids believe that this assembler is more precise and makes more sense. I'll give them the former any day. It certainly does have many advantages over TASM and MASM with the exception of wide support. :(

| Rating:
| Ascii Art Renderer. Do not kill yourself trying to understand the code (no comments at all, and fairly complex code). Bonus points for the concept. This is FUNKY and fun to play with. (TMDC anyone? might be useful to figure out how to go from a graphical image to ASCII)

WIN95 And Demos Starter by Cute Elf /code/windows/ce-win95.zip

18,929 bytes
| Download FTP scene.org
| Rating:
| Library for using DirectDraw for making demo effects. Use Winzip to decompress archive because of the long file names. If using DirectX 5, you have to change two lines in DirectXConversion.cpp to type cast to (DirectDrawSurface2 *). When you try to compile, you'll know which lines those are. Hmm... maybe wince stands for Win-CuteElf. (If you see this, are you going back there?)

| Demo contains rotating cube (so obvious), low-zoom plasma (so good, because you cannot see plasma in any other demo this way - always there is a high zoom (because looks better :-), then a dot-ball (also obvious), and end-scroller (thats all???? yes....)

1st Infection by N-Factor /demos/1994/0-9/1infect.zip

| Rating:
| Released at event WIR94 in the demo division and ranked ??
N-Factor's first production, released at Wired'94 - a good "first-time" production for a new group. Lots of vector objects, some unlimited bobs, and textured planes - a top and bottom of the screen - but they are doing many things with this simple transform table: like really interesting flight of space ship over you (like in 2nd Reality), but textured (looks much-much better).
