one of my friend told me he needs program for video editing,
and was interested about doing it same way as on 64 ole good
days ... so he asked me if i want to make a demo to him,
and sure, i done what he needed ... but because this product
wasn't so bad at all (just a usual scroller + piccie demo)
and i really don't remember any working (and cool) demo
creator on amiga, we place it to public domestos ...
feel free to use it, and if you like it, you could show
your inner feelings by sending me some free disks !
instructions :
the program consists 6 files, called
snd - this file is noisetracker v1.1 module
crunched with bytekiller. if you want to use
modules done with earlier version, please load 'em
with noisetracker 1.1 and then save 'em back to your
disk. can't be bigger than 160 kb! remember!
fnt - fonts ... drawn with dp, then converted into
bitmap with iffconverter and crunched with bytekiller.
fonts are 48 * 48 pixels wide and bitmap is 336 * 336
pixels wide. you can draw any letters in any order,
as long as their size is 48 * 48 pixels ! (characters
form a 7 * 7 chars matrix) ... you can use 16 colours.
pre - letters stand for preferences. contents of this file
describe the order of your letters on font bitmap and
this file sure isn't crunched, 'cos its up to 49
bytes long ... file should end up to $0.
(use e.g. hex entry from txed.)
txt - up to 16kb long textfile, you could use all letters you
are defined on pre-file. if you use any other letter,
scroll restart at this character. (this means you
can't use lf, cr or any other control chars!) one
program you can use is scrolled which is included with
this disk in c-directory. remember the chars!
pic - picture drawn with dp, then converted to bitmap and
crunched with bytekiller ... pic is standard lo-res
320 * 256 with 32 colours.
prg - the program. done by jukkis of clones & nc!
all these files are located in s-directory and you can't
place 'em anywhere else ...
if you have hard time finding your bytekiller, try if it
still is on this disks c-directory ...
if you are beginner with bytekiller, try it, it is one of the
easiest crunchers ever made ... and the only cruncher which
produces crunched datafiles which are easily unpacked.
(bytekiller prompts for offset, bigger numbers gives
more effective crunching and also needs more time.)
when producing piccies with dp, you could of course use less
colours than 32 for piccy and 16 for font and less colours
of course act to lenght of crunched file, but remember that
format of piccie have to be exactly as i've said.

instructions written by jukkis & the founder 29.9.89
ps. be careful when using hunkwizard, that fuckin' program
crashed this disk completely ... code and partly also
this doc file were only survivors ! (this is the reason why
these instructions aren't quite correct and long anymore!)
