Hi there,
I browse the forum often, but there isn't any development in this section. I still use "dim" as a screensaver and "MilkDrop" as visualizer, but I get a little bored.
In some topics I hear people talk about Vortex and other screensavers... isn't there a way to post links to them to download?
Or is there someone who likes to code some other cool savers or visuals?
uhrr, vortex sits in svn. so do all vizes/screensavers i'm aware of.

How do I get there? Cause I can't find any
unless you use some braindead build you already have them.

I don't have any "braindead" build. Just a regular release (9.04), nice and up to date... but I still can find it!

Dude!? I can switch them on... or change them... I don't have "vortex" or any other visualizers (except goom, opengl spectrum, projectm and waveform).... I ask if there are others (visualizers and screensavers), cause I can't find them!
uhrrrr. vortex is only available for xbox. i assUmed you had done atleast that basic research. those are what are available on pc builds. and fyi, milkdrop is also only available for xbox.

Well there isn't that much research to do... I could not find any info about Vortex. But Vortext wasn't just the one I needed... just looking for more visualizers for my Windows XBMC.
And ProjectM loads Milkdrop presets, so... !?
Anyway... but there isn't any (!) visualizer or screensaver for Windows? Is that what you saying?
no. where did you get that idea? i told you that those shipped with the application are your options.

About 6 weeks ago althekiller removed all visualizations from the SVN trunk, I am searching the branches now.

I'd still like to know when exactly I supposedly removed anything. And if I did, yes, they were likely the old, useless, xbox versions.

al, i was going through the archives and I noticed a commend you put in there that said something like... how did I get suckered into this in the trunk/screensavers

I believe that was a comment from the merging that took place for all the files into the "trunk". All the files would have had this comment on them, it has nothing whatsoever to do with the screensavers. The only reason those comments are still there is those files would not have been "changed" since then.
