-= GRAPHICS DEMOS =- Here are discs that are just graphic demos, or are Mega-demos etc, including animations etc... Disc 6: Probe Demo. Perhaps one of the most popular discs ever to be placed in the public-domain. (Certainly one of the most popular of our discs). This shows an imaginary sequence recorded from a space craft as it journeys into an uncharted region and onto a strange planet where there have been reports of life. An entertaining and interesting use of digitised black & white graphics and created with The Director. No sound. Disc 7: RGB/FOCUS. There are another two demos created with The Director on this disc, one of them RGB requires 1MEG to run and is a competition winner. RGB is a humourous animation of the effects of the user from using a VDU.. strange and very clever use of digitised graphics. Focus is another strange demo that applies an imaginary scientific rule to random numbers with some weird results... Disc 11: CAT/BARON/WIREFRAME animations. Another classic animation in the form of the Sullivan/Bluth CAT! An excellent digitised cat in a frame runs along as the frame rotates around 360degrees. (Actually one meg is required for a full spin but the effect is still good in half meg!) Also on the disc is a demo for Videoscape of a Biplane flying in and out of the screen in 3D. Also included is a very nice vector graphics demo that is only a few K in size and is REAL TIME (ie the vectors are calculated and drawn 50 times every second). Disc 16: Sculpt 3D Animations, perhaps one of THE classic PD discs containing one of the most popular and often used animations; Khanakas. These animations all work on a standard 512K machine and are excellent. There are three animations: KHANAKAS - a superb HAM animation of Newtons Cradle (the executive toy with the balls on strings that proves the Kinetic theory [all the rage about 10yrs ago]).ROCKING CHAIR - another excellent HAM animation of guess what...yup! a rocking chair! F15: a wire frame animation of a fighter plane, unfortunatly just in wire frames. Disc 17: Sculpt 3D Animations, four excellent animations in a similar mould to the ones above. BIRD: a gorgeous bird ray traced in all its glory in the the action of flapping its wings. BIRDS: One of our favourite animations showing a large AMIGA in solid 3d lettering with 3 birds circling around.(Complete with sound).BOING: A simple but nice animation of a bouncing amiga ball in HAM mode of course! BOINGORBIT:An imaginary spaceship in orbit around a planet which is an Amiga ball (the red/white chequered ball which seems to have been adopted by the Amiga fraternity as a symbol of Amiga).All animations work fine on a standard 512K system. Disc 29: An animation created with Videoscape 3D, this features an imaginary machine type thing with lots of moving parts (including the obligatory amiga ball) and is very nice.Requires 1meg to see the full animation. Disc 30: Another Videoscape animation which is very strange - its shows three Unicycles being bounced off a ball. Again very good but you will need a megabyte to see the full animation cycle. Disc 31: The famous car demo which apparantley forms some kind of reference to the inside dealings of companies in the states. Another 1meg affair (inc some music) it features an innocent unicycle just trying to cross the road but it gets run over by a speeding supercar and bounces off the road... hmmm I wonder who the car is supposed to represent... Disc 33: Not strictly an animation disc but a demo of the capabilities of Deluxe Video by EA. Has 5 or so short `films` showing what can be done quickly and easily. Mock film titles are included, and a good education film teaching pythagoras. Disc 42: Intros 1: A selection of now classic intros and demos full of music and graphical effects. Includes the following demos: Sinners(Not 1.3) (Good music), Doc, Sanx,Fig,Scrollydemo,Atom and Skull(very nice). Disc 43: Intros 2: Another selection of intros all with great music and effects.Sanxion-Not 1.3, Vortex 1 and 2,Tcc (nice sample-Not 1.3),Knight Hawks (great font),X-Men,Cool (great music- Not 1.3) and Tristar. Disc 49: The famous TECH-TECH demo which broke new ground when it was released back in 1987. Featured effects never seen before and generally amazed everyone that saw it. Unfortunatly it will not work on 1.3 issue machines... Great music and superb effects that the programmer has put to good use in his games HYBRIS and SWORD OF SODAN. Disc 63: A mixed-bag of graphical goodies ranging from the classics like JUGGLER and ROBO animation that really got people gibbering and squirming all those years ago. Includes Blitter Demo (nice), Boing, Sproing, Colorful, Zoing, Drive Music (make your disk-drive sing!), Fractals, Robo, Juggler and the rather nice Nemesis planet demo. Disc 70: A nice disc containing 4 classic demos, including The Thames TV Animation, HB Hill, The Boing Machine and Marketroid. Disc 78: More videoscape animations; F15 - 2 jets that circle and fly out of the screen. GTV1 and GTV2 are animations based around the Granada Tv Logo and are nicely done. Spacecraft - a spacecraft that flies and rotates, nice. Trek - the enterprise flies past at great speed. For more really great star trek animations check out the discs by Tobias Richter Disc 81: Newtek Demo. One of the now classic amiga demos Disc 82: produced by Newtek, producers of Digipaint and Digiview as well as DigiFX. This one requires 2 discs and 1meg of memory. A slideshow/product demo/animation all rolled into one. Features great music and even better graphics. Disc 84: 2 nice animations, the first is of a man made out of a coke can who revolves. Its a HAM animation with clever reflection effects and the illusion that it is metal is very good. The smurf animation features a smurf (what else) walking along with the camera panning around it. Disc 85: 2 sick pieces of animation on here.The now famous exploding head demo (ugh!) and another of a bloke chopping some poor chaps arm off. For some reason these are really popular, says something about todays society methinks. Made us lot laugh anyway... Disc 95: The TAA Ball animation. Gorgeous animation of 3 spheres that rotate on a mirrored plate. Works in 512K and is really nice. One of the better 512K animations available. Excellent shading of the balls and how the reflections are calculated. Does not work on 1.3 issue machines. Disc 98: Video 3D demo. a product demo of an extremely powerful and professional video titler. Excellent and ultra smooth effects such as 3D rendering and shatter effects.. Disc 104: Antitrax megademo. Features 6 parts of a nice selection of flashy graphical demos including a nice little shoot em up. Features nice sound and a very funny demo (well WE like it...) As with quite a few european demos, some of the language is a bit on the wild side, so if you are very easily offended then stay clear. Disc 106: Drolt Demo. Strange concoction of graphics, sound and music mix in this totally zany demo. Well weird! Wont work on issue 1.3 machines. Disc 107: Fashion Demo. Great graphics and even better sound combine in this great megademo. Brilliant music by The DJ (as featured on U4). Starts off like a 64 and is very nicely done, good use of samples too. 4parts. Disc 108: Vortex Megademo. Another selection of 4 graphic and music demos put together.Features nice gfx and some good sound. Disc 109: Ian + Mic Demo, 8 parts of nice graphics and great digitised sound. Includes a great dancing bloke on the gents door - one of the more original things we have seen in a demo! Very popular and very good. Disc 112: Northstar Demo II. Featuring the usual variety of graphic effects, music etc. Nice graphics and music for demo fans. Disc 120: Technoforce. 4 demos including a rather sick one that has you shooting soldiers with the mouse.. although it did amuse some in the office. Others include neat effects and good music. NOTE: Only works on 512K machines and NOT on 1meg machines even with the extra ram switched off. Disc 124: More great demos featuring great sound, music & effects. Includes: Doc,Cobacabana,Spaceship, Gang (Not 1.3),Unlabeled,YTV,Ackerlight. All good stuff! Disc 125: More great demos, Barbrian,Rastermagic,Dexion, Northstar,Don Martin,Gang.

Disc 148: Brilliant 1meg/1meg+ animation of a digitised knight. Set to music. One of the best animations yet on the Amiga. Superb! Full screen knight appears out of a book and waves his sword about! Doesnt sound very good I know but the graphics are really good! Disc 150: The Miller Lite Advert! Digitised straight from the TV advert that was on a while ago.

Others - Quadlite, Thrust 2, Knighthawks,Dexion,The Firm and Wizball (featuring nice heavy music).

Disc 197: A disc combining the delights of music and intros.10pieces of music and 4 intros: Red sector mousemover demo,Blaster Demo, Quest Demo,Kefrens Stone Demo (With nice James Bond music). Disc 208: A rolling demo of Deluxe Photolab, featuring 209: some excellent graphics and acts as a superb tutorial/introduction to the program. Requires 1meg to run. Similar format to the Dpaint 3 program which I deem to be a better program although theres no HAM mode on Dpaint III. Disc 213: A nice British demo by JCS incorporating some nice graphics and music etc. Pity there doesnt seem to be too many good UK Demo-disks as yet. Disc 216: Triangle `Giga` Demo, featuring six parts of Music,graphics, scrollies and sillyness.. Features reasonable effects and music. Disc 218: Nice set of demos by RSI/DEFJAM featuring some very good effects and excellent Soundtracker music. Quite a few parts to each bit and the last bit (when it eventually appears!) features some very nice effects but unfortunatly this bit doesnt work with 1.3 machines. Disc 220: The amazing Walker Demo! This is the 2 disc 221: 2megabyte version (a 1meg version can be found on disc 262).This shows an incredibly detailed and well animated AT-AT vehicle walking by the side of a B2000, looking round and shooting complete with sound FX, has to be one of the best demos available for the Amiga. Created by Bill Williams of Imaginetics. Disc 226: Ipec Elite Mega demo featuring about 6 parts of music, graphics and even a shoot-em-up! The usual style of effects etc, nice shoot em up. Disc 229: Another demo by Steve-Snake of KML this time featuring a Lenny Henry sample and Afterburner music sampled from the arcade machine that accompanies his Afterblitter demo that has a matrix of balls spinning around, arcade style again from the Afterburner original. Disc 230: KML`s Revolution demo featuring 3 parts, including 2 great pieces of quality sampled J.M.Jarre music, Zoolook and Oxygene. A version of London Kid is also part of the package. Nice graphics accompany the demo too. Disc 236: Bunsen Burner. A videoscape animation created by P.Warnes (a member of 17Bit) for us.Nice use of Dpaint and Videoscape and is a tongue in cheek stab at Interceptor I think... The main animation shows an F15 flying through a ravine and having a close shave with another. Nicely put together. Requires 1megabyte to run. Disc 240: Excellent Luxor Teenager animation, a sequel to the award winning animation on a mainframe. It is based on the antics of 2 angle-poise lamps, a large one and a mischeavious smaller one who is playing with a ball. Produced with Sculpt 4d. Very good HAM graphics, very smooth moving. Requires 1megabyte to run. Disc 245: Mega Demo by Level 1 and The Dream Team. Composed of 5 main parts featuring the usual blend of soundtrackered music,samples and graphic effects. Disc 246: Vortex 42 Megademo III. Very good demo composed of many parts featuring some very nice graphics, excellent music and good effects. Unfortunatly it wont work on Issue 1.3 machines though.

Disc 253: Walker Demo II Trailer. 2meg version. 254: The excellent intro for Walker Demo II, note that although this is a trailer it is a full demo! There is a 1meg version also available on Disc 255. This demo was on show just about everywhere at the last CBM show and depicts an AT-AT attacking downtown Chicago.. and a helicopter makes a brave stand.. but does it succeed? Find out in Walker Demo II!! Disc 255: The 1meg version of the above.. in fact you dont really lose a great deal, a few sound effects and approx 5-6 seconds of animation including the helicopter bit. Still a fantastic demo and definatly one for the collectors. Disc 257: DOC Net-Analyser demo, featuring a nice vector equalizer routine and some great music! Allows you to turn on/off the music channels to create your own sort of mix, which Steve (17bit) thinks is ace!

Disc 269: Another mix disc, consisting of 2 demos; Flying Rabbits and Epsilon plus 10 pieces of amiga soundtracked music. Disc 271: Dexion Megademo, one of the better mega demos featuring some great music and some excellent effects.

Kylie 286: demo by Steve 'Minogue' Snake. Everybody seems to hate it but secretley they like it... what a two faced lot you are.. very well put togther and for the Kylie fans amongst you its the bees-knees. Two 960K discs of samples and digitised graphics, various songs from Kylies albums but they all seem to sound the same to me... ie. c... nope I wont say it... Disc 287: KML Strike yet again with... wait for it... THE ANNIE DEMO! 10 Digi pics of Annie and chums from Neighbours with 10 secret passwords to hear 10 samples.. when you hear `em you`ll realise why they are hidden... Also included is Steves upgrade of his Afterblitter demo where he now spins 144 balls around in his logo rather than the previously modest 64. More good stuff from Steve.. Disc 292: Northstar/Fairlight Mega Demo III... and with 293: 19parts it certainly is mega with loadsagraphics, vectors,music and effects spread over two discs. Something for everyone and there is some really nice music as well as ray-traced graphics at the end.The first disc will work ok by itself. Note: The last four parts will not work on Issue 1.3 machines. Disc 301: The IT Megademo (Yes, another megademo..) This one consists of 6 parts of mayhem, music and marvellous graphics (as usual) including some shaded balls that get Steve excited (!) Disc 305: Yet another one of Tobias`s excellent Animations this time of a tank from Tron getting crushed by a deactivator (well thats what I think they are called!). Good - 1meg only though! Disc 306: Agatron animation disc containing The Jet demo with objects by Allen Hastings and animation by Tobias Richter - shows an F15 flying from the sky and landing on a runway. This needs 1megabyte. Also included is an excellent Reliant (Star Trek) animation and a Nelson (another Star Trek craft) animation. All produced using Videoscape by Aegis. Disc 290: Zoetrope Demo disc. A new animation package using yet another format (RIF) that allows you to use anim files from just about any machine format including cyber studio ones from the ST and .anim amiga files.

Disc 306: Agatron animation disc containing The Jet demo with objects by Allen Hastings and animation by Tobias Richter - shows an F15 flying from the sky and landing on a runway. This needs 1megabyte. Also included is an excellent Reliant (Star Trek) animation and a Nelson (another Star Trek craft) animation. All produced using Videoscape by Aegis. Disc 308: More Agatron animations by Tobias Richter this time, we have two very nice robot animations, a spaceship animation and Workbee. 1megabyte reccomended but not needed (only to see the last bit of the spaceship animation). Disc 315: An excellent Finnish Mega-demo that has a stunning 316: opening sequence and some brilliant sound effects. Includes 12 parts spread over 2 discs that includes a small magazine section. All good stuff again, the usual filling of nice music, graphics and special effects. Featured in Commodore User. Disc 319: More superb intros, includes PAN DEMO II (Funny), Mixer Demo, Moonlighting,Phalanx,Kefrens Psychoball. All the demos are very good and all work on 1.3 machines (cheer!).

Disc 326: Agatron Animation demo disc, created by Tobias Richter using Videoscape 3D. This disc is a 1meg affair and shows a Star Wars X-Wing fighter coming into view and spinning around. Disc 327: Three Agatron animations, again courtesy of Tobias Richter,Workbee - shows a small Star-Trek craft flying into a reliant craft, this needs 1meg. Also on the disc are two animations of a lotus zooming down a road and a jet flying over a road then a lotus zooming past. All created using Aegis`s Videoscape package. Disc 328: Two Agatron animations by Tobias Richter, Space - a massive spaceship that comes from space with all its bits spinning and rotating and then the perspective changes and it disapears into space again. Tron2 - A deactivator tank from Tron (the movie) gets crushed. 1Meg needed. Disc 329: The widely known Dry-Dock Star-Trek animation that has been featured in loads of magazines now and was on view at the show. Again its by Star Trek fan Tobias Richter and again using Videoscape. Of course you do need 1meg for it. Disc 330: More Agatron animations, featuring the Agatron logo and an excellent 1meg animation - showing tie-fighters and X-wing fighters from Star Wars flying through space and lots of them too! Surprise, its by Tobias Richter and yes it was created on Videoscape 3D. Disc 331: Another two very nice animations courtesy of Tobias Richter and Videoscape 3D. This time of a Klingon cruiser flying and firing its way through space.(1meg) Also a reliant Star Trek craft hovering through space and flying away. Disc 332: More (yes more!) Agatron animations by Tobias Richter this time of the space shuttle orbiting, 3 Klingons and a Knox ship revolving. 1meg reccomended for these (as ever). Disc 333: A massive Star-Wars animation that is so big that it needs to be run from CLI (no space for commands on the disc), you will need a showanim command (on all the Agatron discs) and to read the `read.me` on the disc for full instructions, If you have 1meg and 2 drives then its really quite simple to get the animation going. But at the moment it will not auto-run. We did this rather than put it out on 2 discs. Disc 334: Another huge Star-Wars animation that is very spectacular and another of Tobias`s Videoscape creations. Like 333 you will need to follow the on-disc instructions.1meg req. Disc 337: Robocop Demo by Jolyon Myers. Very nice Robocop music including sampled excerpts from the film (some are a little naughty so caution is advised) plus some of Jolyons artwork. Disc 338: TSK Demos consisting of a very nicely presented menu with very nice music and graphics and six sections, all with meritable graphics/music of some sort. Sunset,TSK,Young 89,Roundabout, Final Part & hall of Fame. Disc 339: Very nice mega-demo by Alcatraz, features 7 parts of very good (sometimes excellent) effects, music etc including a great version of the Space Harrier title music by Fred Hahn. Disc 340: Triangle Megademo - 8 parts to this demo featuring the usual array of sprites, scrollers and music (some nice music at that). Disc 371: Another Agatron Animation this time created with Dpaint III, its a 2D animation showing how you could present something using the package. Not quite as stunning as Tobias`s 3D Videoscape stuff but good none-the-less. Of course its about Star-Trek! (Requires 1meg) Disc 372: Another of Tobias Richters Star Trek creations, this features a Reliant and an Enterprise in combat. The enterprise moves slowly above and behind and shoots the reliant, rocking it... Very nicely done, huge 3D graphics, smooth action. (1meg!) Also on the disc is a robot animation where the robot is walking along. Disc 373: More Tobias Richter animations created with Videoscape, the first is a fairly basic 2D animation of 2 Star-Trek craft passing each other in space. Also on the disc is a very good animation of a craft flying toward a planet.. the camera angle swings round bringing the craft into view - very neatly and cleverly done - requires 1meg of course! Disc 374: Yet more animations from Tobias Richter, this time theres not a Star-Trek animation to be seen! The first one is a billiard/pool table an shows an animated sequence, again its well done. Also are two animations of a road, where a lotus and an F-15 fly down (nice). 1meg needed for the billiard demo. Disc 375: Mad Monks Demo Disc! Contains.. Superbob Demo, Heavy Metal Demo, Intro Part and a really funny Anti-St song that made us laugh (alot) but its not for people without weak stomachs... as digitised retching sounds might not be up their street... well dont say we didnt warn you... Disc 396: Cryptoburners mega-demo consisting of 5 parts of music, graphics and effects but it wont run on issue 1.3 machines. Sunrise, Splashing Bubbles, Snadder Demo, Into The Unknown, End-demo. Nice music etc. Disc 397: A nice demo disc by IT, a sick-intro (with a strange guy hitting a few chickens) leads to a very nice vector/scroll demo with 7 pieces of music (selectable via the function keys) all done by Walkman, and its very good. Disc 398: 6 Intros on this disc, Atom Demo IV, 2 Kefrens demos (nice),SOS Sound Select II (3 tunes, Good Old 64, Arkanoid 2,Technopop), SAE Weapon Demo (great music) and Accession (but this one doesnt work on 1.3 machines).Good stuff! Disc 399: 6 really good intros on here, Channel 42 (cute!), Crionics Fractal demo, 1st Wave (nice wavey effects), Hurricane (great music!), Scoopex (good vectors) and X-Men. All fine on 1.3 machines although all external drives HAVE to be turned off. Disc 401: Intros Disc 19. By far and away the best intros disc we have had in a long while! Features the amazing music of the Scoopex Glory Stars demo, the brilliant Subway Demo, the Wacky Mahoney & Kaktus demo, a complex Bob-Demo, Crypotburners ace demo and a nice escape Demo. This really is the disc to go for! Brilliant stuff! Disc 406: The FROG Animation, many may have had this on the cover disc of Amiga format but this disc has extra sound effects and features for 1meg owners such as the daft speech done by me, and a few digitised effects. Music is Never Ending Story courtesy of Allister. Disc 408: Steve Snakes Heavy Death Demo. Done over a day or two during the Commodore Show, Snakeypoo once again shows of his talents with a nice array of programming and lunacy. Disc 416: The Agatron HUEY Helicopter animation, very nice uses Videoscape to create shadows as well. 1meg required - of course it is by Tobias Richter. Disc 418: The Quadlite 64 Demo. A mock 64 screen is the basis for this demo playing a classic remix of all the 64 tunes and then loading several other demos. A great demo disc. Disc 419: The Phenomena Mega Demo - the Bob-War continues! What is the bob war? well the programmers have been competing to see who can get the most on screen, this has the most so-far to my knowledge with 200 on-screen! (thats 200 objects). This mega demo contains lots of sprite demos as a result but the highlight is the darkened-room only demo at the end that shows what Elite COULD have been like. (lights out, hifi volume up, sit back, feet up and relax...) Disc 422: Intros Disc 20 containing.. Avenger 3D Balls, Complex Heavy Music, Complex, Depeche, Hurricane (superb),It Solid (very nice) and Tragic Magic (nice!). Great collection of demos. Disc 423: 512K users have been somewhat left out in the cold as far as decent animations have been concerned so to make amends here are some! Featuring five animations including two very nice Star Trek Ones, now 512K users can live long and prosper! Animations by Tobias Richter. Disc 425: Quickstart B including The Boing Machine, Demons Demo and some brilliant music. Great disc to introduce you to demos.. Disc 433: The OUTSIDER demo featuring some nice music and a very nice sculpt 3d animation on the first part. Disc 434: The Piranahas demo, features a brilliant demo like the scene from Monty Pythons Meaning of Life.. The Fishtank.. Load this demo up and click on the fish-tank... your very own aquarium... Brilliant (although a little rude). Disc 441: A demo-music disc comprising of some nice demos and great music by Allister Brimble and Stein Giske. Intros- Crusaders Water Demo, Spreadpoint, Digitial Wizard Vector balls, Kefrens. Music - Heavy Metal, Labyrinth and September plus 4 by Stein Giske (all internal sounds - very good). Disc 443: Jean-Michel Jarre Slideshow/Harp music. Very nice disc created by HCC featuring some nice Lazer-Harp music and a good slideshow featuring full colour graphics. Much better than their previous Docklands Demo. Disc 450: 4 Demos on this disc, including a great digibox that allows you to save any of the strange sounds as IFF or RAW data - strange sounds including the Pope! You can also speed up and slowdown the samples in real time for a good laugh! Also included are 3 demos, one by Vortex 42 and is a very nice wave demo - one by Alive which is a nice line demo. Also a very strange and clever scroller by Defjam/Silents. Disc 452: The SAE/SCX Mega-Demo, contains some very clever effects, nice music and nice graphics. Some of the language used is a bit dodgy so you have been warned! About 6 parts. Disc 456: 4 nice animations on here, and for a change they all work fine in 512K! They are 'TreeFrog' by H Kane, Hammer by M Illingworth, Window by Cape and Walking Man by S Segal. All very nice 2 ray-traced and 2 animations (.anim files). Disc 458: IT CAME FROM THE DESERT! Yes! Its crawled out from Cinemaware and is attacking your screens. A great product demo for the already famous unreleased game - IT Came from the Desert! Based on all the classic 50's bug movies get this and find out what all the fuss is about. Spectacular sound and animation plus of course a superb intro sequence. IT should be available soon... 29.95 courtesy of Mirrorsoft. *1MEG DEMO* Disc 459: Vision Megademo, very good use of colour, great music, neat effects - what more can we say! Contains 7 parts or so... Disc 463: Ghostpool and Amigadrip animations. Two really good animations here, the first is a 3d pool animation done in HAM and mimics a ghost playing pool. The second is a water drip that lands in a barrel - very nice ripple effect! Needless to say, its 1meg only. Disc 464: The extremely nice CX-1 animation featuring a spaceship flying around a glass ball. Very smooth, excellent HAM animation created with Sculpt 3D. 1meg only again. Disc 465: An excellent and very original animation by Dr Gandalf(!) featuring a small collection of stamps and a magnifying glass. Quite a long animation and extremely clever. 1meg only Disc 470: Tobias Richter Ray-Trace Artwork Disc 1.
