On my iMac, I can make the acquarium screensaver my desktop background. Weird having windows open over swimming fish...

Is there anyways to make the Matrox demo a screensaver?

FYI, you'll also need 3DAnalyzer to run this on non-Parhelias.

English and Russian versions available

Edit - Sweet unholy god. That link is still alive and serving? How fast is it going?

Crap, I thought this was a screensaver, but then I realized that the thread started as a WinXP screensaver topic and moved on to the Matrox thing. Oh well, checking now.

Someone run a tracert on that server, I think it's God. :Q

Edit - As an anticlimax, here's my FTP linkage.

I've got both the demo and 3DAnalyze on there.

This demo brings my 128MB 8500 Retail to it's knees.

My 1600+ processor must be the bottleneck, although my HD is chugging along through the entire demo. :Q

This is what I get for living in the city.

 

[FelixDeCat]

I just got through downloading it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[datalink7]

Will my Geforce 3 (and 512mb RAM) run it?

Now I have to wait for my Radeon 9600 Pro.

How-to "Merc's Notes"

1) Get the demo and 3DAnalyzer (3DA)
2) Install the demo and 3DA
3) Start-Programs-Matrox-Reef-Config and set your GPU memory accordingly, I suggest 64MB
4) Launch 3DA. On the left, point to your FishDemoClient path/exe
5) Check "Emulate HW TnL Caps" and "Matrox Reef Demo Fix"
6) Click "RUN" and enjoy the slideshow

I got it to run on my 1400 w/ 768mb ram and 9700 pro....

Looks great but the demo sucks... you focus on that goddamn rock the whole time... I want to follow the shark around like they do in the movies on the matrox website! :|

Great Eye candy, but the demo sucks

 

[MercenaryForHire]

I bet it looks better in surround.

[datalink7]

lol... it doesn't work at all. My geforce 3 can't handle it

 

[FelixDeCat]

Now where do i get 3da Merc.

 

[dexvx]

I have a ti4200, and the lighting seems to be a little off. It blinks different colors every few seconds. Is there a fix to that?

Anyone else disappointed with the Matrox Demo?

You probably dont have TnL enabled. It transformed a couple moving rectangles into something amazing.

On mine, the shapes all seem fine, but they're all solid white.
