Foreword
=========
Various additions since last version sprinkled here and there throughout
the file. This here is still no FAQ. If you want a demo-faq read
the brilliant PCDEMOS.FAQ of the brilliant comp.sys.ibm.pc.demos newsgroup
written by Trixter/Hornet. This is a collection of (hopefully) useful
resources and information. I am not passing on any e-mail-adresses that
have not been released on the net before. I'll start with the e-mail section
(The biggest section).
Enjoy.
E-mail section
===============
I've really tried to organize them alphabetically by group, with Utopia
first :), allthough it's totally random inside each group.
Those who either do not belong to a group or those who are the only ones
listed from their group are placed in the Various-group,
where they are listed at total random. Some of the people listed in the
Various-group are contributors to the official PCDEMOS.FAQ,
and I might then have obtained their e-mails from that FAQ.
Some of the group-listings do not include all members of that
particular group, only as many as I could get hold of adresses for.
If anybody wishes to have their name/address removed from the
list, just mail me, and I will remove your name/address.
Same goes if anyone wants to be added. Also if any information is duplicate
or incorrect please inform me. All of these guys are from the demo-scene,
but I believe about 3 people snuck in on this list from the PPE/PCB scene.
Something like that. Sorry about the mess.
I guess they should be organized better. Remember this does absolutely not
include the whole on-line scene. I suppose we could estimate there beeing
say 600000 sceners worldwide, give or take half a million :),
and there are about 400 listed here. At a big demo-party there could
be something like 10 times as many as that, and there are many different
parties in many different countries, as well as a few sceners who have never
been to a demo-party in their life, or never been a member of a demo-group
in their life, and don't have internet access, so this is not an easy task.
However, I dare say that I think this is one of the most complete demoscene
e-mail-lists available. Pretty sure it is the biggest off-line one anyway.
They have been sorted better since last version, and there are more adresses
than there were last version. If you are looking for someone's address and
you can't find it you can try to find it by quitting the DSSK,
and loading SK2_6.DAT into your favourite editor, and using the
SEARCH-function on the name, or group you are looking for.
What I would like to know is who are the rest of the 2500 subscribers of
DemoNews?? DemoNews was great, it's not that, but it had so many subscirbers!
By the way is it just me who's noticed that there are awfully many people
called 'Wizard'?

Web Resources
==============
THE HORNET ARCHIVE - http://www.hornet.org
It rules! It's phantastik! It's the best!
There is just nothing more to say. The demoscene would not be the same
without it. A few gigs of demo related stuff, making it the biggest
demo-archive in the world, a great search-system, and some good links.
Basically you can find everything that is worth looking for here.
They have in some mysterious way basically managed to capture the scene,
and stuff it into a few gigs. Thanks Hornet!
For some reason I've no longer experienced it beeing slow from Europe!
I normally get around 1-2 kilobytes per second (on a 28800bps). Wahey!
PC DEMOS EXPLAINED BY TRIXTER/HORNET- http://www.hornet.org/ha/pages/demos
It's great!
This one has links to the very best web-pages *and* really *does* explain
everything a newbie to the demo-scene would like to know!
(You can easily download a lot of well-known demos here too!)
GROUP/MEMBER SEARCH SERVICE - http://www.generation.net/~hornet/search.html
This is like heaven for a newbie scener.
If you're not a member of a demogroup you can put in an ad here,
or look at the ads of groups that are in need of new members.
Maybe you'll get lucky.
PC DEMO FANCLUB - http://www.globaldialog.com/~jer/demos.html
Brilliant page. Presents the demoscene from a demo-viewers point of view.
Great links, files, and content. A must.
EUROPEAN DEMOSCENE SERVER - http://www.nacamar.de:8080
Useful, and very good.
Totally different style from your average demo-scene page.
But that doesn't mean it's a bad style. Just different.
Very well laid out. It also has a big list of game-companies' pages.
ORANGE JUICE - http://ojuice.citeweb.net
Kinda like an international diskmag, online. Pretty cool, actually.
OUTLAW TRIAD - http://www.tem.nhl.nl/~comma400/vulture.html
They have great Pascal/ASM tutorials on demo-effects.
The URL may be incorrect.
ASSEMBLY ORGANIZING - http://www.asm.org
Just the people behind the most well-known demoscene-event *ever*.
Great layout, and design, and a few interesting things.
THE GATHERING - http://www.gathering.org
The homepage of the people behind the biggest demoscene-event in Norway.
Lots of info about the parties.

Kewl page about the norwegian scene. Suppose it's quite un-interesting for
people from outside Norway.
KARMA'S CODING PAGE - http://osiris.sund.ac.uk/~cc6pwa/index.html
Lots of good info about coding.
DEMO REVIEWS - http://www.mygale.org/~esteem/review
Nice site by demo-group Esteem, but remember that all ratings are personal
opinions.. I also quite like a japanese saying which basically says:
"Don't call another sceners demo lame unless you could code it any better."
Something like that.
THE NEW DEMOSCENE PAGE - http://www.ts.umu.se/~network/demos/
I suppose you could get some good info out of this page, but it has less
demos for downloading then my private harddisk... A lot less..
FUTURE CREW'S HOMEPAGE - http://www.mpoli.fi/~fc
Thought they were dead? Well, I guess I kinda did too.
THE DemOS PROJECT - http://www.cdrom.com/pub/demos/info/DemOS
Hate Win95, OS2, and Linux? Think DOS is dying? Then this is the place for
you! Get updated on the projects current status. The first operating
system only for the demoscene. I reckon it'll be free and downloadable here
if they ever get it finished.
HIDDEN PARTS IN DEMOS - http://www.rpi.edu~rossa/secret.txt
Looking for new, hidden parts ("easter-eggs") in demos? You'll find them
here.

FTPSEARCH - http://ftpsearch.ntnu.no
Another non-demoscene related site. It's the best FTPsearcher around.
Type in the name of the file you'd like to find, and you will get up a list
of all the places you can get a file with that name. Pretty handy methinks.

Diskmags
=========
Comment: There's been really few quality-diskmags lately...
I think this has to do with that the world wide web is taking over,
and is perhaps a more suitable medium for this kind of thing.
You reach more people, and now have quite a few options
for both good raphics and music to supplement the text.
DSSK4 or DSSK5 will be web-based.
Diskmags R cool electronic magazines on your screen, normally with muzak.
Here are some of my favourite:
IMPHOBIA DISKMAG
OK, I admit it, and I know of few people who are going to give me flak
for saying this, but I admit it... I like Imphobia Diskmag!
Shit, with all the crappy diskmags there are out there this is Brilliant!
I agree that the file-size has been a bit too big lately, but if you
look at the trend of file-size in demos, you'll see they've risen too.
Sure some of the articles stray to much from the demoscene,
and are quite boring, but there are masses of good articles,
and masses of good music. Way to go Imphobia!
It's meant to come out like twice a year or something,
but it's been somewhere between 1 and 2 years since the last issue,
and if there is going to be a Imphobia#13, it's still a while off
according to Darkness. Still, I recommend dowloading previous issues.
Get it from the Hornet Archive.
CHEESE
This diskmag is very weird, but it's quite cool.
Once again, the Hornet Archive is the place to be.
SPLASH
No good articles or anything like that, but it has a cool
'gallery'-section with pictures of scene-people.
I suppose you'd get really surprised if I told you you
could get it from good ol' Hornet.
DEMONEWS
By Hornet, this is a weekly newsletter, not a diskmag. If you download
a special viewer it seems like a diskmag.
ALSO DEAD! Shit, there's been a lot of demo-stuff fading away lately.
no point in subscribing any longer, but you can download previous
issues from the Hornet Archive.
PAIN
Text-mode. Mainly concerning the swiss scene, but still worth a download.
I think it's pretty stylish.
SHINE
Good quality diskmag, it seems. It's only two issues old as of me writing
this, but I could only get the first issue to run.
The second one just crashed.. Even on a clean boot with nosound...
With the lack of good general diskmags, I think this one is good.
Is it just me or are diskmags a dying species..?
Books
======
These R some books I recommend for would-be-coders.
Jeff Duntemann's book is great if you'r totally new to assembly-programming,
if not get either Mastering Turbo Assembler, or ZEN of assembly Programming.
After this you should know the basics, and can get one of Abrash's more
advanced books. This guy knows his stuff! (He has worked with some giants.
Anybody remember a company called Microsoft? How about iD Software?
I guess that nobody has heard of a game called Quake?)
Master Class Assembly Language has a lot of REAL good stuff
with information about not only standard VGA but also hi-color VESA modes
with high resolutions. If C++ is your thing we've got something here for you
to. If you already know how to code 2D graphics, and optimize that well,
go for the 3D-book.
ASSEMBLY LANGUAGE step-by-step Jeff Duntemann
ZEN of assembly programming Michael Abrash

ZEN of code-optimalization Michael Abrash
Mastering Turbo Assembler Tom Swan
Master Class Assembly Language Many Authors
3D Computer Graphics Alan Watt
C for Dummies Dan Gookin
C++ for Dummies Stephen R. Davis
Newsgroups
============
comp.sys.ibm.pc.demos Great newsgroup for sceners. I suppose it's
best for coders.
comp.graphics.algorithms Good usenet-site. Not *just* for sceners.
rec.games.programming Games-Programming ain't that different from
demo-coding..
IRC-channels
==============
I'm not really sure what server you should be connected to to get
the most out of the various channels, but the Undernet, Anothernet,
and EFnet are normally good places to be.
I can normally be found on EFnet. Either as Zippy,
or Zippy_ is some stupid git has stolen my name.
#trax IRC-channel for demoscene & tracking.
#daskmig IRC channel for people involved in the
demo-scene.
#coders IRC channel for coders. Lot of well-known
coders hang out here.
#demofr Cool demo-scene channel.. If U can speak french.
#demobr Brazillian demoscene-channel.
#swedescene Swedish demoscene-channel.
#suomiscene Finnish demoscene-channel.
FTP's
======

files to download.
You might not need any other place...
x2ftp.oulu.fi Lots of useful programming stuff.
ftp.uni-paderborn.de German mirror of ftp.hornet.org
ftp.uwp.edu Lots of good demo-stuff recomended by
Future Crew.

Stuff to download
===================
Hmmmm..
* Denthor's Demo-Tutorials.
Originally in Pascal, but if you search 'round a while you'll
find them translated to C++ by Snowman/Hornet.
(Get 'em from the Asphyxia homepage-don't remember the URL-sorry!)
* SyNc's Watcom-tutorials.
They'll help you get in to Watcom.
(Get them from http://home.sol.no/~oruud/)
* Wolfenstein 3D source-code.
Really useful for getting into 3D-games coding.
(Get it from ftp.idsoftware.com)
* GNU C++ for DOS, if U haven't got a compiler..
Full version! No restricitons! Totally free! Totally legal!
Totally crap assembler! Totally kewl C++ part!
Really, this isn't a hoax. It's a good compiler, for free.
'HardRox' was made with it, and it won the Wired'96 democompo,
and of course there was this obscure little game called 'Quake'. ;)
(Get it from http://www.delorie.com/djgpp)
* Michael Abrash's Dr. Dobbs Journal articles in .txt format.
(Don't remember where I got mine, but I think U can get 'em from
ftp.idsoftware.com, or maybe somewhere in ftp.cdrom.com)
* Neopaint. Good to use in addition to DP2, sorta thing.
(U can get it from x2ftp.oulu.fi)
* Midas MOD player. [Or CapaMod if U just want good GUS support]
(Get it from the hornet archive)
* Tiny XM player by Cubic Team
If you're concerned about the size of your prod or you're making an intro
this is the player you want for the muzak. (DSSK uses it!)
(Yet again turn to the Hornet Archive)
* Official VESA BIOS Extensions v.2.0 documentation
This one's very tough to find, but you'll find it by snooping around
the Hornet Archive.
(Search at Hornet Archive for something like VBE 2.0)
* Lots of great demos & intros
Quite obvious, eh? Well, I forgot to say so last time, but you can get
masses of cool demos off the net. 64K'ers are kewl to download 'cause
they take such a short time to download. Learn by watching other demos,
but be original. Don't rip people off or imitate, learn from others
and then find out how you can do your thing. An intelligent guy learns from
his mistakes, however a *really* intelligent guy learns from *other*
people's mistakes! Here's a list of great demos, and intros which I
reccomend you download.
Recommended demos
===================
This could be seen as a new section, but it isn't quite, as it's really a
part of the last section. An extension, if you will. Here goes.
Lately I've noticed some people constantly saying "People don't make demos
like in the good old days", "There's so little design these days",
and "What happened to the oldskool (sic) charm, eh?"
This kind of thing really makes me wonder which cave people have been in the
last few years.. What people usually mean is that there are few
*outstanding* demos nowadays. Notice the word "outstanding":
OUTSTAND'ING: prominent, excellent, superior.
When we're saying that there are few outstanding demos, then this is true,
naturally. For something to be outstanding it has to be superior to other
similar things. By nature, there can't be many outstanding things
of any kind. The fact is though, that there have been so many *real* good
demos during the last couple of years, that a demo would have to be
unbelievable for it to "stand out" from the crowd.
Remember that these are absolutely just my opinions, nothing else, OK?
You'll find that most of these demos are from the late 90's.
