On schedule and not only ...
(C) 1999 GAS 1913
Hello, dear readers!
Everything written below is my
personal opinion and may not coincide with
views of the editors ... The idea of writing this
text came to mind after reading
newspaper Polesie N10 ". Just want to say, a newspaper that I
liked, though Lyrics like "beginner programmer" is not a
newspaper deal, imho. But I'm not about This ... I have been on
the Speccy graphics and so I will address mainly the texts of
the newspaper containing this theme. First a few words about
the article KVAZAR'a "Where is rolling Scenes or Voice in the
Wilderness."
KVAZAR> One by one, and passed PARADOX
DI: HALT. That we will eventually have? A dozen third-rate
works, drip graphics and music, in vain wasted power and
creativity.
I have just the language does not turn
call schedule PARACELS'a sludge.
Or work DIVER'a (6). He's one of the
few (if not the only one) who uses the brightness in their
works. Where x then progress? On CC? And not far removed
papers presented at the CC ... Really
that the first 2 places. I compare, because in
Article idealized CC. Yes, I agree, was not too high quality
graphics. The worst was for me to learn that about 10
jobs-conversion! Here you can really ask:
"Where we roll?" Or 24 picture ...
Yes. She is on the level, but something hurts like a
screensaver to SPECTROFON'u 21. If not only the author (A.
Markin) remade it, it is obvious plageat.
Next on the "wasted potential" ... As rightly pointed
DIVER: "The potential can not be dissipated" Ie may, of course,
but not in terms of graphics on the Spectrum. Here, the
potential for My (not only) view is generated.
With the advent of nominations "Nkb INTRO" schedule almost
ceased to be used encoders. Instead, all engaged in these demos
the most intriguing ... For example, I generally against the
intro. Where to get more pleasure from a demo than 10 INTRO.
Artists can only participate in a variety of GFX-COMPO. Now and
before reached, that there was no CAFe'99 ZX-GFX ... So what
makes an artist?
I am also against a large number PARTY,
but 1-2 GFX COMPO per year for the artist is not enough. That
there is no self! Can to conduct pure GFX'MUSIC COMPO (well,
is notorious INTRO), and once a year with full PARTY demos. In
principle, most of this year's "Festival" and included in the
master schedule, da music ... In the other categories of works
were not enough ... If there was a global PARTY, it would be
attended by According UNBELIEVER'a 12 demos. And even more
(then about PHAT9 was not known). And the graphics and music
would be so much same, because they create is not a demo
riveted. All this I have to anything ... Potential
dissipated in the DEMO COMPO. On the other nominations increase
PARTIES influence will not.
KVAZAR> How much is already possible to grind
nouveau "Organizer", well not go UNBELIVER, DR, EI, REAL
MASTERS, ANTARES, WLODEK and other progressive People in your
Urjupinsk!
No supporting numerous PARTY want to note that EI gone
on DI: HALT'99, UNBELIEVER-going and
ANTARES were CAFe'99 ... But they were all in
different places. That's the main negative, leading to the
collapse of ...
KVAZAR> Equals, nor will any of the festival ... For God's
sake, if you want to have fun, show their achievements, share
software, finally, just to collect their uzhratsya- drinking,
but why would exploit the trust people and sacred to many of
the name "International Festival of Computer
Art.
That's it. "Show your achievements"
reason that the graphics at all PARTY
was well represented. Status "MFKI"
give is not necessary, but PARTIES should be!
Now a few words about
Article MONARCH'a all in the same Polesie:
MONARCH> Actually, ideally, finished drawing without attributes
should look full black and white, without any conflict PAPER
and INK.
Who should he? In my opinion this is
yesterday ... And no it is not
ideal! Just look at the work without CC
attributes (especially the first place ...
its not look! :) My be ... there is even
HIDDEN PART is ... but this is not the case).
In black and white version of them is simply impossible to
find! Now increasingly are shades color and b / w option can not
be complete. The more complicated the picture
the harder it is to create a picture without conflict PAPER
'INK.
MONARCH> If you plan on drawing from
the fragments of higher brightness, better to make a black
background, as on all other colors will be visible border
familiarity with high brightness and ordinary. But in reality
the figure transitions to shade with ink, so you cover up
disadvantages sinklerovskoy graphics.
This problem has already happened to me
face ... Cover image for that number (completed yet up to full
screen) contained in the original areas of brightness on
violet (lightning) and blue (water bottom). I stood brightness
only white (the blue and violet), ie
border was not visible. Some of my
familiar bright spot just spoiled riunok, some are OK. In this
regard, I beg you to write to the editorial office
or my (sm.reklama) as picture-in-
application looks at you.
I looked through all the graphics in 1996
and that's what I can say about the use of brightness to create
additional shades:
- On E'96 brightness uses VIATOR
and MAGIC SOFT;
- On E'97 brightness used quite a lot of artists. AND
TERROR / DR, and TeeRAY / XTM, and SNAKE / XTM ...
- On her FT'98 not used one!
- By CC999 - DIVER/4D. And the brightness he had not only
on a black background ...
At the moment, the brightness is almost no one except
DIVER'a not use. PARACELS, FIL and others incl. libo off.
brightness the whole picture.
In conclusion I want to say that the graphics MONARCH'a I'm
not in any way refer to as sludge ... On the contrary, she told
me favorite of many works that use color transitions. And on
the CC SAVANNe I would have given 3 rd place.
On this I have all. Hi all progressive artists,
contemporaries: PARACELS / EI, DIVER/4D, FIL / ATS, MONARCH,
HAZARD / PHT ...
Om ram, KrNews! :)
Congratulations to the first anniversary! :)
Now about KrNews # 10. It is good,
materials are picked up in the spirit of the newspaper, only
I'm not entirely clear why such "hot
Materials "Solutions like the games were
placed in the application?
Sincerely, Arthur / JEDI
