This demo also mentions Tron but not sure where to put him (code or graphics?) and Oliver Wilke for the raytraced animation. If somebody could confirm this...


comment by Boogeyman on 30 December 2007

Fairly sure Tron did some code on it.


comment by Toffeeman on 01 January 2008

Trons coded other stuff for Sanity so it's probably that.

Okay this demo is really a preview of Roots 2 as they had issues at the party but I still love it anyway. The opening artwork is great and the Jester module as well has attitude ;0)

I love the 3d rotator in this demo probably the best hardware effect I've seen on the Amiga or any format. Chaos said it was the code he was most proud of 10 years later ! The chunky effects are also really well done on stock A1200 and I guess are based on the chunky effects from Arte but optimized for 020. Even the so called lamest effect in the demo is cool in screenshot 26. Probably used hardware sprites for the text.

This demo makes me think : we can do as Nintendo Mode7 graphic capacity ;)
Cthulu graphics are in better quality in this version than in Roots 2.0

Impressive demo !

PS : there was also a preview for WOC http://ftp.amigascne.org/pub/amiga/Groups/S/Sanity/Sanity-WocPreview.adf

I think Tron also did raytraced part (maybe he "simply" does the raytracer itself) because the Greenday/Artwork also have a similar raytracing scene (and Tron credited for it if i remeber)

Anyway, i don't really like this demo, when it was released i attempt from Sanity to do better (more like Interference and Arte than Elysium)
