What does demo mean?What is DEMO?
When it comes to DEMO, players generally think it is an animation that describes the story before the game starts. However, the DEMO we are talking about today is a DEMO made by some groups to participate in international DEMO competitions. It shows a lot of difficult figures and brings a lot of praise to the viewers.
"DEMO is short for demonstration. a demo on a computer is simply a program for displaying computer graphics and music. Therefore, the animation warriors who started the game are also a DEMO. In computer companies, you can see programs that introduce software and hardware on your computer. These commercial demos use graphics and music to attract customers and find them.
However, if the knowledge is generally DEMO, there will be no good looking. The DEMO introduced here is not a commercial DEMO, but a DEMO specially prepared for the DEMO competition in an international competition. The main purpose of these demos is to bring fun to the viewers and give full play to the experiences of computers on the earth and music. That is to say, the DEMO is combined with the stunned CG and music, and the programming skills and skill of the DEMO maker are added to show many difficult performances. Some people say that the DEMO is: "Dear, I changed the PC to SGI ." The award-winning DEMO generally optimizes the program during design, giving full play to the hardware potential of the PC and generating amazing results, including: Variable music, RENER graphics produced by instant operations, FRACTRL, transparent, PLASMA, 3D vector space, virtual reality, and MORPH.
To achieve these effects, these demos generally have the following four features:
1. To use the assembly language, you need to generate a simple DEMO, which can be easily written in advanced languages, but the speed is not ideal due to some restrictions. Using assembly language optimization, you can make full use of and control the power of hardware and software hunger.
2. Multi-channel music.
3. Break through the traditional drawing capabilities: on PC, the standard VGA can only display 256 colors in the 320X200 resolution, with few memory pages, which causes many restrictions. The DEMO usually uses a special MODE, which is usually called x mode. In these modes, the memory page can reach 320X200 and 256 colors.
4. Real-time Computing: Most of these demos have 3D vector space, virtual reality, or many computer coloring effects, as well as deformation. Because of the relationship between real-time operations, although a DEMO is not large, it can be played for 10-20 minutes.
Creator of the DEMO
A demo is like editing a game. Any DEMO requires a program design, artist, And choreographer. The DEMO is often compiled by the DEMO team.
A demo group usually includes:
1. Leader ORGANIZER: overall planning and lead the team
2. CODER: design the DEMO program
3. artist MUSICIAN: creates music that matches the DEMO content
4. Artist graphics arts: Drawing DEMO Images
5. Others: Responsible for BBS and assistance
(Very similar to the game development team, isn't it ?)
DEMO community assembly
The "International Demo Competi-tions" International DEMO competition is usually sponsored by a large DEMO team. The competition project includes DEMO, INTRO (DEMO smaller than 64Kb), muisc, and GRAPHICS.
Different competitions are usually held for different hosts. The winners are entitled to a prize or a sponsor's prize, which is obtained by voting.
Currently well-known DEMO competitions:
Assembly Finland ends every summer
The Party Danish Christmas
The Gathering Norway before Easter
The Computer Crossroad before Swedish summer
What is Demo?§ DEMO overview §
[Edit this section]
DEMO is short for demonstration. a demo on a computer is simply a program for displaying computer graphics and music. Therefore, the animation presentation at the beginning of the game is also a DEMO. In computer companies, you can see programs on computers that introduce computer software and hardware. These commercial demos use graphics and music to attract customers and promote them.
However, if it's just a general DEMO, there will be no good looks. The DEMO introduced here is not a commercial DEMO, but a DEMO specially prepared for the DEMO competition in an international competition. The main purpose of these demos is to bring fun to viewers and give full play to the computer's experience in drawing and music. That is to say, the combination of the DEMO and the stunned CG and music, coupled with the programming skills and skills of the DEMO maker, shows a lot of difficult performances. Some people say that the DEMO is: "Dear, I changed the PC to SGI ." The award-winning DEMO generally optimizes the program during design, giving full play to the hardware potential of the PC and generating amazing results, including: Variable music, RENER graphics produced by instant operations, FRACTRL, transparent, PLASMA, 3D vector space, virtual reality, and MORPH.
§ DEMO features §
[Edit this section]
To achieve these effects, these demos generally have the following four features:
(1) when using the assembly language, a simple DEMO should be generated, which can be easily written in the advanced language, but the speed is not satisfactory due to some restrictions. Using assembly language optimization, you can make full use of and control the power of hardware and software hunger.
(2) Multi-Channel music.
(3) Break through the traditional drawing capability: on PC, the standard VGA can only display 320 colors at a resolution of 200 × 256, and there are few memory pages, resulting in many restrictions. The DEMO usually uses a special MODE, which is usually called x mode. In these modes, the memory page can be up to 320X200 256 multi-color pages.
(4) instant computing: in most of these demos, there are 3D vector space, virtual reality, or many computer coloring effects and deformation. Because of the relationship between real-time operations, although a DEMO is not large, it can be played for 10-20 minutes.

§ "DEMO" in software "§
[Edit this section]
In the software version, the DEMO is the DEMO version. There are generally two types: one is full-featured, but there is a time limit, most of which is 30 days, after 30 days, you will be asked to continue using the service only after you purchase the service. The other is the trial version provided before the official version is released. This version has no time limit, but the major functions are incomplete, the most common is the game DEMO.
