    Post Help finding 3d demo

    About a year ago, someone posted a link to a file that was an AMAZING 3D rendered demo that fit on a floppy disk. it was a 3D world with music and everything. I had it on disk for a while, but cannot locate it. does anyone remember this, or better yet, remember where to download it? If i am not mistaken, it was their entry to a 3D rendering competition, with the goal being the smallest files available.

    Thanks, but that wasnt it-- the site ws devoted to the project of making this tiny file -- it was RIDICULOUSLY small, I'm talking like 80k or something absurd like that. it left me with my jaw on the floor-- it was almost 5 minutes long too. it was originally posted here, but i cannot find the link.

    Heh... that is awesome You could fit that on almost any floppy disk ever made. It's really amazing once you think about it. A massive amount of mathematical description of models and textures, sin curves, etc, etc. But that's the geek in me speaking...

    That is beyond impressive! 30,000 to 1 compression! I just hope they produce more!

    Great find, Joelen!
