1 word:  ...whoa.


Simply put...Milkdrop runs faster because it is not as good.

To put it simpler...........my computer is tripping......hardcore.

Dont even bother downloading this if you dont have a strong video card.  It even says on the download page you need a strong system.
I have a 1.2 GHz Athlon, 256 DDR ram, and most importantly an overclocked Radeon 9600 Pro.

It runs...good i guess. Takes about 20 secs to load.  A lot of the scenes are 'choppy' however...but not in the usual way.  The FPS counter goes up to 113 fps (when i put the limiter at 120fps) but i keep it at 100.  It keeps this rate, yet still does the 'choppy' thing.  I'm not sure if its for effect, or a glitch.


Milkdrop vs R4 is like.............barney vs a T-Rex.
Try running this while streaming Goa/Psy trance. :eek:

Danke PsychosMind!

I'm about to give r4 another try. Last time I wasn't really pleased, and there were very few visualizations.

RuNE: My system is about equal to yours, but im not sure about the video card. I didn't notice any problems visually when I tried it last, there was just little variety.

hehe.

R4 has somewhat overtaken MilKDrop now. I might get back into doing some new MilKDrop stuff soon but R4 is taking most of my vis devolpment time up now. I will however be updating my website soon though ( http://www.milkdrop.co.uk ) for the last 6 months of presets/scenes for it. (You guys DO know about shroomery.org's own preset don't you? In the last updated preset pack (Regulars) on the website (Called 'Rovastar - The SHroomery' :smile: )

There was an R4 thread somewhere on this forum as Effed one of the mods here posted and as he has been doing some textures for the scenes for me. Hopefully soon I will have chance to use some for some nice new scenes with them in.

I am wanting to create a really trippy mushroom scene deadicate to all you here at the shroomery and from shrooms everywhere. :smile:

Oh an teh slow loading thing has partly been fixed on teh new version of R4 v1.08 now (a few version in the last week or so) but also for some reason virus scanners play havok with the loading of R4. (lots of small scriptlike files in R4 that soem virus scanners take there time over) ...so try turning them off when running.

I just noticed the "R4 costs ?200 (UK Pounds)..." on the website.

I'm not sure about the reasons behind it, but good luck finding customers.  :thumbdown:  Thats an insanely high price.  If you think about it, Doom 3 with advanced graphics up the ass will cost around $55.

  :confused:

You have to pay 200 pounds if you plan to use it comercially, like in raves or night clubs, wich makes sense to me, because it can add a lot of atmosphere thus bring in more income to the owner. So the people that spent time coding such a sweet plugin want a piece of the pie :smile:

What about home use? Say i want to get rid of the annoying banner on the bottom... shouldnt that be available to buy for a much lower price?

I know and am sorry about the pricing scheme. It recently went up to ?200. That is because we are thinking more about the corperate markets. We really wanted a free version for all and make money from seperate visualization projects. But alas this has not happened. It is expensive for home users but I do not know how we can offer one version for home and 1 for professional use.

Sadly visualizations are used a lot in clubs, etc and abuses the situation of 'free' on the Internet. VJ and clubs around the world use these and some even boast about using them without registerng (when it was cheaper at ?50) so hence more banners and more frequency.

I am wanting to however create more tasteful scenes instead/less frequency of the banner with a similar message advertising R4. MOre like the demo scenes demos credits/greetz, etc.

Phat,

I lurk here a bit actually. :smile:
