Trying to find an old amiga demo

Lurch666 · 15 March 2011, 23:21

been looking around google to try and find am amiga demo (at least I think it was amiga-could have been c64).

All I can remember is there was a newscaster talking complete gibberish then it would cut to a cartoon of someone being killed (shotgun blast,axe or other method)-You could fast forward or rewind the sequence then it would go back to the newscaster again then you you go to another cartoon killing.Can't remember if there was any more to the demo.

Any ideas anyone?

Sounds like Fraxion - Revenge.

Lurch666 · 16 March 2011, 00:54

Yes-that's the one.Thanks

omg I totally forgot about this, thankyou so much, this demo is legendary!

I tried the .dms getting a few graphics glitches on A500 quickstart (winuae), any idea of a good settings setup for this disk?
Also anyone got this in .adf to up to the zone please?
I think this classic deserves the whdload treatment, great stuff

Had a few minutes to spare at work and made a WHDLoad patch for this very demo. Since I made it here at work it's not much tested so there may be problems. There is also no icon [anyone who can make one?

] so you have to start the patch from shell. Have fun.

Awesome stuff Stingray, whats the string to start it from shell? I'm not that great with that side of Amiga.
I'm happy to try it out like this until someone can make up an icon, anyone? :P

Just use "WHDLoad revenge.slave PRELOAD" until someone made an icon.

no luck couldnt get this to run from shell, lets hope someone comes up with icon soon.

Step by step description:

1. depack the archive and change to the directory where you have unpacked the archive, i.e. if you unpacked it to "RAM:Revenge" switch to that very directory with "RAM:Revenge" (type exactly that in a shell but without the quotes of course)
2. start the patch with "whdload revenge.slave PRELOAD".

Copy an icon from another whdinstall, change the attributes to point to correct slave and set the reload tooltype if not already set. Delete other tooltypes not needed. 5 mins!
