It's been ages since I last time did something on the demoscene so getting up to speed would expectedly require much more time than I am able dedicate. >> >> If you're looking for C64 demos, the best place to look would be CSDb: https://csdb.dk/. Look at the top 10 demos and top 10 one-file demos, they'll give you some idea of what the scene has been up to. >> >> Don't count on scene demos using HW extensions, there's a few demos using REU, but that's probably about it. > One or two using IDE64. Maybe five using two SIDs ;-) I understand that and no, I don't want to get famous on the demoscene because of this :-) It's basically about showing off the HW product, which is a kind of "copper". A chip, which once properly set up can take almost all the VIC handling load off the 6510. This should allow for some not previously conceivable things and effects, higher SID update rate, etc. And no, I don't expect to get rich selling it either. Especially once I pay for the demo(s) ;-) Perhaps I misunderstood the question =) I thought you were looking for demos that push the C64 to its limits. I you're looking for specific VICII effects (ie sprite crunching etc) it becomes a little harder. You'd still probably be best off with CSDb, especially the forums. I'm not very active anymore in the demo scene, so I'm don't have encyclopedic knowledge of which demos contain which 'record' for a certain effect/trick ;-) There currently are some 4-SID demos, and even an 8-sid demo: https://csdb.dk/release/?id=180946 (although I think that uses an Ultimate64 Elite with some FPGASIDs). Another way to get into contact with some current demo sceners would be #c-64 _at_ ircnet.Received on 2020-05-29 23:24:54
