These guys are just damn good.

You say it dude!
Such f**king amazing realistic 3D graphics and great cracktro-like music in under 200Kb is just f**king amazing!!!!!

I would really love to be able to use a 3D engine as powerful as that one in PureBasic.. maybe some day?
Btw, you seem to be in the PureBasic Team too.. so is Berikco the founder or you? I did a search but I didn't find an answer hehe

Fred is the original AUTHOR of purebasic! He is behind all the stuff, from beginning@amiga till now! Of course the other helps too (afaik, Fr34k for ide&debugger, very lazy Bericko for the visual designer. Help file i am not sure who to credit, probably Freak.)


Interesting Intro, mr va!n :p The way you present the rapper reminds me a bit about canadians in south park

va!n, at the beginning of that demo I thought, shit man, I could do that in PB. But it got pretty cool later on. Very cool demo

[JCV]

How did they do that? :O
Its amazing!!

[Froggerprogger]

You ever asked yourself, why the demo-startup-loading takes so much time?
They load all there sounds, textures and 3D-models via the internet! About 15 MB full of data!

(just kiddin'... it's truly unbelievable! I had the possibility to run it with Ultra-gfx in fullscreeeeeaaam, harhar)

What program did they use to compress? The compression is good.

Don't most gamers use UHA compression these days? I've seen some pretty unbelievable compression with that as the compressor but I never could get the settings right myself.

It's not compression that makes the exe so small, but the use of procedural objects (textures, sound samples etc, created by code only). It's the generation of these that you're waiting for while the progress bar is displayed.

Im wondering why I cant even extract the icon. The exe file seems to have a different structure. What packer did they use?

And also, the file header is different

I had forgotten that. Never having designed games or fancy graphics, I had overlooked examples of those in this very forum. Very impressive.

@JCV:
They are using an own packer... (old verion based on UPX source... new source is afaik a complete new algo not based on UPX)

I bet they use KKrunchy. Kkrunchy is developed by a farbrausch member.

Also have a look here:

for more tools

They might be using a special internal version, don't know. I have been able to archieve pretty good compression ratios using Mew11 and FSG.

[JCV]

Oh so its kkrunchy coz the the datasection is named kkrunchy.
And they are also the creator of the demo debris.

Amazing Demo ! Runs fluent here - altho 110C GPU temperature after - i yet havent seen that with anything.
