Starlight on line... At first I would like to say that this little one is my second production in assembler, so don't blame me for it... Some words 'bout this small intro: this little one is generated randomly each time you start it, so it will never be the same! (:^)) It could be easily made much faster, buth then it would be too fast to see the beauty of this nice efx... It uses the VBlank interrupt to delay itself, but I was forced to make two versions of it (due to lack of code-space): 4kb.Fire&Ice is for Amigas with at least 020 & Fast, it has much longer delaying loop, and 4kb.Fire&Ice.low is for all cpu's, although it could be too fast on better processors... And this intro has one most important feature - it has the best system on/off routine I could think of. I've tested it with many WB programs (i.e. FileMaster, CeD and Hippoplayer running at the same time). It preserves all (I think) important system vectors I know (i.e. DMA, audio, interrupts...). So if it bugs - don't panic, wait until the end, press left mouse button and You're in system again ! WARNING ! a) The Vector Base Register (VBR) MUST BE SET TO 0 before running this intro ! The best way to ensure this is a clean bootup (Without Startup-Sequence). b) On my 030 there was no need of disabling caches (InstCache & DataCache with Burst) knows what it'll be like on 040 or 060... Although no self modifying code was used, Murphy isn't sleeping... #8^) Notka do organizerów: Do compo przeznaczona jest wersja "4kb.Fire&Ice", ale proszë o spreadowanie obydwu wersji dostarczonych na dysku razem z tym plikiem tekstowym.
