Here's another requested one. This time it's an installer for Vision's
Megademo 2 which was requested by Karpow in the guestbook of www.whdload.de.
The demo was released almost 20 years ago and is still nice to watch.
Nice code by TSM (who sadly passed away in 1996, RIP) as usual.
Wasn't hard to fix as the code is rather clean. Just the usual problems
(direct ROM jumps to acknowledge IRQ, almost non-existant startup/restore
routines) made it crash on non 1.3/68000 machines.
P.S.: Message to Karpow: installer for Deathstar's Megademo is 99% finished
and will be released soon. :)
Have fun and enjoy yet another classic demo from HD now.
Greetings to all in Scarab and Scoopex, the WHDLoad team and to Musashi5150 :)
Extra greetings to the usual suspects on #amigascne, see you all at
Breakpoint 2010! :)
