-
- (1) A short description: This is a set of images and palettes for
- the current (and future) versions of Cthugha, the great
- oscilloscope on acid from the Torps Productions. I've
- designed this set for my own entertainment while playing with
- Cthugha 5.1, but finally thought that the pack can appeal to
- someone else. Use it separately from other sets. (Move
- all your external palettes, etc. to a backup dir, and
- try this set per se.)
-
- (2) Recommended music: This set was designed when I was playing
- Yes "Tales from Topographic Oceans," so I recommend this
- LP/CD in the first place. Other Yes albums are also excellent.
- Anyway, l8r I've tried the set with FM radio (the station was
- playing things like Pink Floyd, Crash Test Dummies, Enya, Queen,
- etc.). It worked fine, so I assume that if you have a mood
- for some abstract art and several nearly monochromic palettes,
- try this set.
-
- (3) Setting up: This set gives best results with space-type tables.
- What should be done in cthugha.ini.

- (4) Legal stuff: Bitmaps are (C) 1989, 1993-1994 by Dmitry Altukhov.
- Palettes are not copyrighted, probably. Some of them come from FractInt,
- some from Improcess. Some are brand new. :-)
-
- (5) Files:
- cryogenc.pcx - an image called: "Cryogenic Device." (C) 1993-94 DA
- cryoheat.pcx - an image called: "Cryogenic Heat." :-) (C) 1994 DA
- spheres.pcx - an image called: "Spherical Travel." (C) 1994 DA
- hunter.pcx - a rather old, half-scanned bitmap.
- Originally it is a paper drawing,
- later scanned, reprocessed, and scaled
- down to plain VGA. It is
- copyright (C) 1989 by Dmitry Altuhkov.
- It's called "The Hunter."
- ???????.map - palettes, from FractInt, Improcess,
- and designed by me. Also, bitmaps add several
- palettes.
