SIC V2 **** 64K RAM SYSTEM 38911 BASIC BYTES FREE READY. LOAD"COSINE/ SAY OOH!",8,1: SEARCHING FOR COSINE/ SAY OOH! LOADING READY. RUN - WA-HEY! TIME FOR SOME VERY-LAID-BACK PARTY TEXT FROM T.M.R AT DEJA VU 2... I FINISHED LINKING INC D021 EARLY SATURDAY MORNING SO IVE SPENT MOST OF THE TIME WATCHING THE OTHER CODERS WORKING AND MAKING MINOR CHANGES TO THIS LITTLE RELEASE... ITS BEEN COOL TODAY,SOME OF THE ORGANISERS ARE PLAYING FOOTBALL WITH A BALL OF SCRAP PAPER IN THE CAR PARK,THE DJ IS PLAYING SOMETHING THAT CAN BE POSSIBLY DESCRIBED AS MELLOW AND I HAVE A BRUTAL CD WITH ORCHESTRAL VERSIONS OF THE TURRICAN SOUNDTRACKS ON THE AMIGA. SO IM SORTED FOR SOMETHING TO LISTEN TO ON THE COACH HOME NOW... ITS QUIET RIGHT NOW,MOST OF THE COMPO DEADLINES HAVE PASSED AND THE REST ARE IN A FEW HOURS TIME SO ONLY THE PC AND PSX FOLKS ARE PANIC CODING... THERE WAS A T.V. CREW HERE EARLIER SO EVERYONE HAD TO TRY KEEPING A STRAIGHT FACE WHEN THE REPORTER STOOD THERE AND DESCRIBED DV2 AS A -MULTIMEDIA EVENT- AND THEN CLAIMED TO HAVE BEEN HERE ALL BLOODY -DAY!- THEY WERE HERE FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS! THE GUYS ASLEEP AT THE BACK OF THE HALL DESPITE THE VOLUME THAT THE AMIGA MODS WERE PLAYED AT,NOW -THEY- HAVE BEEN HERE ALL DAY! THESE TV PEOPLE HAVE NO STAMINA...! STILL,IT GAVE A FEW PEOPLE A LITTLE EXERCISE AS THEY TRIED TO HIDE ALL THE INTERESTING LOOKING CDS ON THEIR DESKS! I JUST KEPT OUT OF THEIR WAY BY LOOKING FOR A PIZZA... IVE HEARD THAT THERES GOING TO BE A DEJA VU 3 NEXT YEAR AND IM GOING TO BE THERE. AND I WANT TO BRING A FEW MACHINES ALONG,INCLUDING MY A1200 AND P180 SO THAT I CAN USE THE PARTY NETWORK. SO I NEED TO REMEMBER HOW TO DRIVE... ID ALSO LIKE TO GET SOMETHING A LITTLE MORE PERMENANT THAN WHAT WE HAD TO JURY RIG TO GET THE C64 TO TALK TO THE VIDEO PROJECTOR - RIGHT NOW ITS JUST A STOCK MONITOR CABLE WITH A RESISTOR TAPED TO ONE OF THE PHONOS AND BOTH LINES BEING FED TO ANOTHER LEAD. AND IF I TYPE TOO HEAVILY ITS GOING TO WORK LOOSE! RIGHT NOW IM USING A SMALL MONITOR AND ITS VERY USEFUL AND PORTABLE BUT I HAVE TO SQUINT A BIT TO READ MY SOURCE CODE... AT LEAST I DIDNT HAVE TO DO ANY GRAPHICS ON THIS SETUP! --- TIME PASSES --- OKAY,NOW ITS THE DAY AFTER DV2 AND IM AT HOME USING MY C128D TO FINISH THIS LITTLE SCROLL UP AND HAVE THE LUXURY OF A READABLE SCREEN,THE C64 TO PLAY SOME MUSIC WHILE I TYPE AND A FAN! BEFORE I GO ON,A SPECIAL HELLO TO THE DV2 ORGANISERS AND ESPECIALLY TO SPANSH. THERE,HE SAID THAT HE WOULD BE HAPPY IF HE GOT GREETED IN A DEMO! I HAD A BRUTAL TIME AT THE PARTY AND IM CERTAINLY GOING TO THE NEXT ONE. I WAS THE ONLY C64 GUY THERE THIS TIME,SOMETHING WE CAN PROBABLY FIX NEXT TIME. THE MOST MEMORABLE MOMENT HAD TO BE WHEN WE RAN INC D021 ON THE VIDEO PROJECTOR WITH THE SID HAMMERING OUT THROUGH AN AMP THAT COULD SHAKE THE BLOODY TABLES - THAT WAS WORTH THE NINE HOURS ON A COACH ALONE...! ANYWAY,IM GOING TO BAIL AND CRUNCH THIS PART DOWN... THANKS TO EVERYONE AT DEJA VU II FOR BEING INTERESTING PEOPLE TO HANG AROUND,DRINK AND EAT PIZZA WITH,THANKS TO ODIE FOR WORKING A MINOR MIRACLE WITH THE DEMOS MUSIC,TO THE OTHER MEMBERS OF COSINE FOR MORAL SUPPORT DURING THE CODING OF INC D021 AND THANKS TO YOU FOR PUTTING UP WITH THE ROUGH 8KHZ SAMPLE FOR SO LONG! QUICK CREDITS TO KENZ FOR THE VIDEO GRAB AND T.M.R FOR CODE,SPRITES AND QUICK IMAGE PORT... .. . . -
