 Re: Looking for a particular demo or demo part

I did found MC Demo on one of my old disks, so it might be the one, but I have to check on real hardware how the effect looks like, because I remember the whole thing slanted to the right. This part of of it might not be emulated.

The cassette version of Dynamix has the exact same (borrowed happy) effect. The one in MC Demo is the original though.

Interesting, but it wasn't that. I found a reference that one of the intros of Dynamix might have something similar, but can't figure out how to progress to that part to check.

The first part of MC Demo does this, but it's the "vertical gray bar" that's moved to the middle of the screen. Plus4Emu reproduces the effect.

The effect is similar. But this was in the 80-s or early 90-s, and it had real content being split into half, maybe it was also slanted to the side.
It was around when A trip came out, I have it anchored to that in my mind.

Bad Signal came to my mind, but that differs from how you described it. Probably a different one.

 Looking for a particular demo or demo part

I vaguely remember a demo or demo part, which had an effect, which looked like it moved the horizontal retrace area (a particular grey band) into the middle of the screen. Does this ring a bell for anyone, of which demo this was?
