Attached is a ZIP of a pack of "Cracktro" styled demo scrollers that I created back in 1994-1995. I created the pack of demo scrollers to upload them to various local BBS's (back when I lived in Miami, Florida USA) as advertisements for my new business at the time, "Computers On Line".

A YouTube video of the demo scrollers is here -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzi4K4ZeJCI .

Hehe, basic and crude demo scrollers in all of their retro goodness 🤣! 😀

P.S. You can download the original "Tracker" format song file "Computers On Line! (Redux)" (used in the first segment of the attached demo pack, as well as the first segment of the above-linked YouTube video) here -> Re: Tetra Music Compositor. / download/file.php?id=12582 ("COLRedux.zip") 😀

THAT'S IT, and THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! I was absolutely wracking my brain trying to remember what the heck I used to create that demo scroller in the first segment of the video! 😀 The other segments, I still can't remember what I used though.

@All, and another:

This is a video of a "Cracktro" styled intro demo scroller that was created back in 1997 by some shady hacker, for some questionable "Warez" CD of the era <grin> 😀

Since VileRancour reminded me about "Intro Maker", attached is the last released version of Intro Maker (version 3.0), as well as "The Draw" (version 4.63).

I attached them here, as it seems quite difficult to find a download of these two utilities that haven't been hacked up to smithereens.

Example 1: After a bit of Googling, you'll find downloads for a so-called version "6.00" of "The Draw". The thing is, there was NEVER an official release of "The Draw" with that version number (as the last released version was v4.63).

Example 2: Damned near ALL of the downloads for "Intro Maker v3.0" include an OLDER version of the "STM2STX" utility... which does NOT function properly (IIRC as it's been quite a while since I actually used it, totally screwed up sound for the music that you've converted). Anyhow, the attached ZIP contains the PROPER "STM2STX" utility (which is what was included with REAL IM3 release).
