Vacuum (1996-)
--------------
ENG> Hollywood (Simon M. Carless, founder music, ex Axis, new ROM8).

Vacuum was founded by Hollywood and Stelios after they left Axis in late
1996 (ROM8). I've seen a text file announcing their new chartmag 'Pump',
the world musician charts! The first issue was allegedly to have been
released in august/september 1995, which is highly unlikely!


Vajrayana (VRN, -1997).
-----------------------
AGA, DIP, Rio and Slat left to join Elven 11 (E11). After the release of
the E11 demo "Smart" (03/97), which Mat helped do some work for, he also
left the group to join his old groupmates in the new group. This meant the
death of Vajrayana.


Valhalla [old] (1990-1990).
---------------------------
Boards; VALHALLA (usa), UNDERWORLD (usa), OUTLAND (usa), DARKSIDE (usa),
     TERRORDOME (usa), GREYHAVEN (usa), COLISEUM (usa).

Valhalla was probably the most shortlived illegal group ever. After making
some releases, and being in cooperation with Skid Row, its best members
(Arnie, Creeping Death, Copyrighthunter, Wiseman and Hawk) joined Skid Row,
and they died the same year they were born.


Valhalla [new]

     Speeder (sysop 'THUNDERDOME'), TKM (ex The Flashing Bytes), Unlimited
     (ex The Flashing Bytes), Xenomorph (trade, new RAW5).

Vanish was formed by people from Mindkillers, Timex, RAF and Panic in the
middle of 1991. They also spent some time as Dynamix' and Ministry's demo
divisions. They are probably best known for their great graphician Navy...
They ceased to exist when they merged with Tech into the new group Logic in
1994.

Apollo joined Panic (RAW5).
Laurance joined Sceptic early 93.
Lawbreaker (ex Awesome, new mid 91) joined Razor 1911 (RAW5).
Germans Montana Rice and Aerobase (swap, both ex Fate) joined Awesome

Plauze left, he was NOT kicked (mid 91). He consequently joined Fairlight.
Dr.Oetker and Icecube joined The Special Brothers mid 91.
German graphician Navy joined the newly formed B.A.S.F, but quickly moved

  Review: The intro to FC8 is nice, and sets a good atmosphere for the
  reading of the actual mag. Especially the great title picture, and
  Filippetto's funny, bouncy tune helps lift your spirit!
    Then, the mag itself: They have received a new code for this issue,
  and even though I haven't seen the one they previously used, this one
  ain't too shabby. At least it works on my machine :) Regarding
  compatibility; I had to depack the files to a disk in order to get it
  to work - most probably it needs to read its files from DF0:.
  The main problem on the A1200 is some distorted graphics inside the
  mag itself, but it's far from a major problem. The English in this mag
  is perhaps not the best I've ever seen, but it's far from the worst
  either. Just sample this little golden nugget from the news section of
  the mag: 'Some ENERGY members are wrong!'.
    The mag gives a clean, good feel when using it. It's also the first
  mag I have ever seen to have a complete plasma routine as a background
  for an article!

  Review: Nothing special about this demo, the only standout part is the
  'monitor' one. Here you see a virtual Amiga monitor on the left side,
  where someone loads an assembler, opens a file, runs it - and you're
  presented to some Goraud objects. Also, a lit candle lighting a face is
  seen in the same context, and that was very well executed.
  The music is nothing special, neither are the graphics. Average.
  Will run fine on unexpanded A1200's.

  Review: This 4k intro involves several objects flying across a sky blue
  background. I'm still amazed at how they managed to store all those
  objects' coordinates in 4k! Another cool thing about this one is that
  it's actually quite system friendly - you can flip between screens while
  viewing it!! Outstanding, and only bettered by the winner intro "HazMix"
  this year. The text file mentions the intro 'should' work on unexpanded
  A1200's, but that 030 or better is recommended. It requires SetPatch.

  Review: Nothing outstanding atmosphere-wise, though the effects are of an
  overall high quality. They present us with lots of envmapped objects
  here, as well as a tunnel effect similar to the one in Rebels' "Whammer
  Slammer" (12/94) demo, only a lot more colorful. Not bad. Not bad at all!
  They strongly recommend a 030 processor.

  Code: Noe, BJSebo, Gfx: Neuromancer, Madbart (3d), Music: Timer.
  Winner of the Gravity 96 demo competition!
  Cooperation with Appendix.
  Review: Zero Gravity deserved to win, from what I've seen from these
  competitions. While Floppy's "PapadeO" was good too, this has a lot more
  going on; a lot more substance. And, with an archive of 3.6mb, it should.
  The best of parts are towards the end, with the voxelspace landscape and
  the 'spaceships in space' parts. Also, the music is at its best there and
  at the very beginning. There are four fullscreen pictures in the demo,
  three by Neuromancer and one raytraced by Madbart. Other than that,
  there's not much new here, it's the usual shading and mapping.
  On a scale from 1 to 10, this is a strong 6.
    The demo requires 'some fast', and an 68030 is strongly recommended.
  It also supports multitasking, so you can flip between screens with
  Amiga-M. 'Waiting for PowerPC'. So do I :)

  Winner of the Astrosyn 97 demo competition!
  Review: "Everything Dies" is a beautiful demo. With this production,
  Venus Art announce their farewell to the scene - but they certainly
  decided to go out with a bang! This demo singlehandedly take on the task
  of bringing the Amiga demo scene to the next step of the evolution ladder
  by bringing the fourth dimension into the 3d demo. There's stuff here
  that's unbelieavable, lifelike, and technically outstanding. Another
  thing that this demo does to push the limits is its support of the AHI
  and CyberGraphX standards for sound and video. This demo is a worthy
  tombstone on Venus Art's grave... DOWNLOAD IMMEDIATELY!
    Though the demo worked fine on my machine, it was unbearably slow.
  In fact, I believe this is the most processor hungry demo I have ever had
  the opportunity to run. Don't get me wrong, this isn't all bad; it's the
  kind of demo that makes you want to go out and buy an accelerator :)
  The recommended minimum configuration is 040-40, eventhough it will run
  on anything from 020 up. Neuromancer and Madd's pictures were the same
  ones as the ones they competed in the graphics competition with.
  The AmiNet archive also included the source code for their earlier intro
  "Oops!" (11/96) as a gift to the scene!

Vertigo was a finnish demo group, born ca 07/90 by Sulky Fellow, Drifter,
Delorean, Unknown Artist and Ripper from Image. They released their first
demo "Vectors For All" (08/90, Sulky Fellow/Drifter/Delorean) shortly after,
finishing 3rd in a finnish party.
  They are now dead, since all their members left for other groups. It is
believed that Finnish musician Delorean moved directly to Complex.

Vertigo split up, and finnish graphician and founder Drifter (08/90) joined
  Byterapers.
Finnish graphician and founder Unknown Artist joined Omega.
Paralysis, sysop 'PARANOIA' joined Recline.
American sysop Spy Hunter ('INTERNAL AFFAIRS') joined TRSI.

  review: Almost the last word in vector demos is this, the first ever demo
  from Vertigo. And guess what? They didn't come off to too bad a start!
  The unusual music works remarkably well, as does their 'widescreen'
  approach to demo design. Nice.
    There's no exit routine. Even though it runs on the A1200 with KillAGA,
  there's still some graphical errors here and there.

  Review: What strikes you first, of course, is the music. It's a funky
  affair that's just smashing. Way to go! The intro itself is nothing
  especially interesting, consisting of just one screen and one effect.
  The effect, though, was brand new when I saw it. It's a sort-of burning
  cube that flies from left to right and back again :) Of course, flame
  effects have progressed a lot since then. Anyway, nice.

When Black Robes died, Dr.Skull (later just Skull), Tsunami, Alien, Groo
and Dr.Death decided to form a new group; Virtual Dreams. VD was originally
the demo and intro division of cracker group Fairlight, but as their Amiga
activities decreased, VD were more and more left on their own. Their first
demo, "Absolute Inebritation" was released at The Party 92.
  These days, most of VD are inactive on the scene, though most are for a
reason. Star coders Skull and Tsunami are working at Scavenger in the UK,
coding games. BTW, Skull also coded the MPEG animation player for the ASM96
CD-ROM "eRAVE 2", which means he's moved over to coding the PC now.
  Diskmags have been responsible for some erroneous information in the
past; RAW 5, released in mid 93, claimed that Tsunami left the scene, which
anyone who saw him win the intro competition at The Party 3 with
"Chaosland" (12/93) will know is untrue. Then, in RAW6 they claimed he had
joined Damones, which is also untrue. The truth was that he doublejoined.
ROM6 then devoted an entire article to he fact that the entire group was
officially disbanded after The Party 5, which is strange since they managed
to win the demo competition at Assembly 6 eight months later...
  Devilstar's BBS 'BODYCOUNT' was closed when he moved away from Denmark.
These days he's back in Copenhagen, as ROM9 revealed, and working on games
for interactive television! The ROM article revealed he was considering
doing some work for the scene again, and we certainly hope he will!
In the meantime, he has worked on game projects such as Full Throttle (pc),
Targa (snes), Battle Tech (pc), War Inc (pc), Imperium Romanum (pc), Earth-
worm Jim 1 and 2 (pc) and Hugo (TV and PC).
  I found one ad for 'CHILD IN TIME' where one of the sysop names were
Immortal instead of Eternal. Perhaps this means he used/has a different
handle at one time.

Nitch (code) joined Artwork.
Dutch swapper Astro (Casper van Schie, ex Movement and CNCD, new ROM4) took
  a big step when he took over the editor job of legendary diskmag "R.A.W".
  He then joined VD, and everything looked hunky-dory... Then, as we all
  know, the diskbased "R.A.W" was terminated in favour of I-GO's "R.A.W
  Online", and Astro left the scene to run his own InterNet company.
The Dutch superteam Facet and SuperNao (new 05/95-12/95) came to VD from
  Spaceballs, because they found them to be inactive...but soon after they
  joined, all production pretty much ceased in VD too! Therefore they
  decided to revive their old group Lemon. right after The Party 5!
Finnish coder Zany (ex Complex, new SLH11, 08/93-95) has sold his Amiga.
  Zany worked on "242" (08/93).
Hungarian graphician D-Mage (Ferenc Tompai, ex Headway, 08/93-94) sold his
  Amiga in early 1995.
Swedish musician Probe has lost contact with the group sometime around
  early 1995, and has presumably left the scene.

 Assembly 94 Invitation (1994, AGA Intro).
  Code: Alien, Gfx: Jaco, Music: Groo/CNCD.
  Review: This opens with a picture by Jaco of a yellow-tinted female face.
  It's slowly faded onto the screen, and then there's some text overlayed
  onto it. The proportions are way off on the face; perhaps this is
  intended, since the large eyes and the weird nose give her a sort of
  elfquest feel...
    The main part of the intro is a text selector, with a rotation zoomer
  in the background. The graphics tiles of the rotzoomer changes frequently,
  and consists of fruit and weird female pop stars :) The music is Groo.
  Can't be put much more precise than that, I'm afraid...

  Review: A very nicely designed intro with only two real routines, though
  they're both very good. The first is a ripple/bitmap distortion routine
  they let loose on a B&W pic of a cute kitten, and the second is "James
  Gouraud". James is a man-like animated object that swims through a sea,
  among other things. A good intro this, no doubt about that.

  Code^Music: Alien, Gfx: Jaco.
  Winner of The Assembly 96 demo competition!
  Review: This is not a demo. It is a piece of art! In this amazing
  production, Alien has perhaps created what is the first real piece of
  demo art. An amazing achievement is what this is. There are several good
  routines on offer, of course, but what sets this apart from the crowd has
  got to be the way there all FOR something, they're not just another
  component in the demo. From the moment that tunnel explodes onto the
  screen, you know you're in for a ride. The music has a certain groove to
  it, something I sorely miss in most productions these days. A worthy
  winner. Alien calls it 'what Faktory was supposed to be'. Recommended?
  You bet your grandmother! It does not mention at all whether it requires
  any fastmem, but I suspect it does ;)

  Made for the Intel Outside II 64k intro competition.
  Review: This intro scores high on some originality, and has a few points
  deducted for the generic techno chiptune. The result lies somewhere
  above middle ground. The intro opens with a texturemapped box with the
  Escom and Intel Outside logos mapped onto the sides! The box then mutates
  a little before we move on to a spinning texture world globe. Then we get
  to the original part; a yellow butterfly is 'afterburned', and flies
  around a flower in the middle of the screen. This is a little hard to
  describe, but was very nice. The best effect of the intro is up next,
  when we travel down a dark blue corridor. This looks really nice at first
  look, and lifts the intro as a whole a little for me! Overall? Not bad.

Vision was originally a dutch demo group, probably formed in 1989 (at least
that's when their first productions were released). 1989 saw the release of
no less than two megademos from this young group, as well as some minor
productions. The following year would see a massive amount of releases being
poured out, before they presumably died in early 1992. Only one production
was released that year, the Anarchy cooperation slideshow "Focused On Art".
  1990 - German Malzam (ex Paranoimia) made a very quick stop around july
before moving on to the new group Angels.

Norwegian coder and trader Face The Facts (old handle Octoplex, ex Dual
  Crew, re) got busted for greyboxing in 92, which probably meant the end to
  his scene career. His previous groups were Gate, Anarchy, Palace and
  Spirit.
Plasma joined Scoopex.
Germans Placid (music) and Mr.King (swap pack, ex Analog) joined Scoopex,
  and Mr.King took his famous packmag 'NeverMind' with him.
Shapechanger joined Suburban Base (UPS10).
Swedes Atheist, Excel and Mindphaser (old handle The Joker, all ex Energy,
  02/94), Shock (ex Iris, 02/94) and Skepp left to join Freezers.
Danish musician Tropeduft joined Outlaws.
Norwegian graphician Mindblaster (ex Wizzcat?/ex Scoopex?, 09/91)
  left the scene early 93.
Lawbreaker joined Razor 1911 (RAW5).
Tripwire joined Crystal (RAW4).
Swedish trader Magic (ex Alpha Flight) joined Crack Inc.
Kevin Key (sysop 'INSIDE TREATMENT'/'FLASHBACK', ex The Silents) joined
  Scoopex.
The Norwegian division is dead. Flesh and others are planning to form a new
  group. This may be Angels new.
Auqa/Addonic joined, but left for Surprise! Productions a few weeks later.
German sysops Sniffy and Helioth ('SPIRITUAL HEALING', ex Alpha Flight,
  new pre 07/92) joined, but later they and Boonkid (ex Agnostic Front, new
  RAW3) left to form a new crew with some Swedish guys (RAW3).
Twister (sysop 'FLASHBACK', new RAW3) joined from Agile, but later sold
  all his gear to Kevin Key, who is now running it (RAW3).
Amitech (sysop 'THE PHANTOM ZONE', new RAW3) and Lion (ex New Wave, new
  RAW3) quickly joined Offence (RAW3).
Norwegian Corny (ex Network) joined The Silents late 91.
The Dutch division died late 1991, and soon-to-be-famous graphician Facet
  (07/89-09/91) joined Anarchy. Coder Crackerjack (08/90) joined the
  original Axis.
Norwegians Octoplex, Mindblaster and Flash joined Dual Crew. Mindblaster and
  Flash then joined Scoopex, only to return to Vision (RAW1). Octoplex also
  later returned, using his new handle Face The Facts.
Finnish Starfader changed his handle to Mellow D and joined Miranda 12/90.
Dutchman Shock (07/89) left the group in 90.

  review: Very 1989 this, with copper-effects dominating. Apparently an
  intro for a pack of some kind. There's a badly drawn logo in grey on the
  middle of the screen, and in addition to the copper fx on the background
  there's also a scroller and some equalizers. Not too exciting. Please
  note that no actual credits appear in the intro, so I'm just assuming New
  Deal is the coder...

  review: This is a real nice, though non-innovative packmenu produced by
  the dutch members of Vision, though the pack itself was released by the
  Norwegians. A bouncy scroll is at the lower half of the screen, and the
  rest is occupied by the selector menu - overlaid over a 'skr'-moving
  Vision logo. The music for the version reviewed is uncredited, but is a
  chippy with a nice melody. The overall impression of the menu is very
  good, with good clear graphics. There are some compatibility problems,
  though - on my machine, the selector graphics were not displayed, though
  the intro itself worked perfectly! When it was run from WB with KillAGA,
  it worked perfectly (selector graphics and all), but destabilized my
  system upon exit, resulting in a guru shortly after. Reviewed is the menu
  for Violation #69 (released at Razor and Imp 666's 'Arendal' party,

  Review: This intro, simple as it is, is quite OK. It's got a sort of C64
  feel to it, what with the logo and the type of design. It's just a large
  logo with a 3D starfield behind it, and a scroller towards the bottom.
  The different sections are divided by color-scroll lines. I like it!

  screen is occupied by a text/demo selector with a Vixen logo as part of
