Which Demos Should I Get?

dansalvato · 18 June 2009, 22:58

I've only recently been transferring ADFs, and I thought it would be cool to grab a few demos and check them out. Where should I start? =)

Altought it says best music, there are quite a few true classics worth checking out in that thread

Awesome, thanks! Also, will these run on just about any Amiga, or what?

TCD · 18 June 2009, 23:17

A few are AGA only and others need 1 MB Ram. The AGA ones will only run on an A1200 or A4000 and for the others you need to try it. Hopefully someone can tell which demos will work on an A1000

I particularly don't remember a single demo coming out right after the A1000, but I dare suggesting the Wild Copper Demo could run just fine.

Good news! Demos such as 9 Fingers and State of the Art run perfectly on my Amiga 1000. Crazy, huh? I never would've guessed. The only flaw appears to be due to my NTSC monitor.

Desert Dream!!

(Kefrens)
World of Commodore '92 (Sanity)
Arte (Sanity)

Although of course they most likely all need a meg

Desert dream definitely needs 1Mb to run, preferably 512k chip+512kb chip/fast

Spaceballs - State of the Art

Try 3D Demo by Anarchy. It should work with 512 KB too

DH · 27 June 2009, 15:39

Wouldn't care, I even read that. That's probably where I got the idea from. I am suffering from last nights major booze up you know, my brain is taking some time to register everything I read (like 1hr or so

)

TCD · 27 June 2009, 15:44

Hehe, I see

Another one that should work with 512 KB is D.A.N.E by Kefrens.

dansalvato · 27 June 2009, 18:53

By the way, I'm pretty sure I do have 512k chip + 512k fast. When I say I have 512k, I refer to Chip RAM, because that's usually what games complain about.

TCD · 27 June 2009, 20:16

Well, then try the ones mentioned by musashi5150

Oh and most of the others from the thread in the second post. For most of the non-AGA stuff (demos/games) that config should be fine.
