niL sourcecode realease 1

This src is all you need to recompile the intro niL by Factory.

As one can see by the name, it was going to be something different, then I got the idea of using it for an 8k, so this how it turned out. The cade is pretty much 80% from a week before coven when I got a fairly decent comp (a p200mmx, as opposed to the 486-133 that I was using) with out acceleration, ergo many of the effects are made so they run halfway decently on a non-accelerated machine. I used vc6 for the final work, but the project was started with vc5, so it should work with both.

A couple of things to note about this code:

• This code was based on (ie. I ripped the core bits out of) some example code on the net, I have no clue as to where it was from..
• Quite alot of code has been commented out, vc seems to be quite dumb in removing uncalled functions.
• the header.exe is a little program I wrote myself.. should be pretty explanatory.
• the exe produced was packed with upx v0.92 with --best
• one might note that the section class is far from used to it's fullest potential, it was originally going to be used as the only way of rendering in the intro, but that changed..
• some parts are really unoptimized, the b&w particle effect and the knot effects are particularly bad..
• the intro really should be going fullscreen properly..
• some of the effects look crap on a decently bright monitor, my monitor isn't so thus I didn't notice.
• color sucks..
• as do comments..
