Where is NEON for PC????

My God...It's full of stars - Neon, Psychedelia, Colourspace, Trip-a-Tron and all flavours of VLM...

Damnit! Suck! I don't even own a PC capable of doing such beauty... I swear the only reason I want it so badly for is the video imaging thing that I dreamed so longly for in the 360 version which apparently has taken a backburner-for-life position. :cry:

Come on, this is just ridiculous. When is this damn thing gonna be released?
There's a huge market screaming for it. There's money to be made by the makers.
People are just going to give up and go elsewhere if something doesn't happen soon.

considering nothing else on the market really 'does' or compares to what the software the Llamasoft crew has created, I doubt there's going to be much of a choice here.

Welcome soularflair, to the fluffiest :fluffy: forums :fluffy: on the :fluffy: net! :D

Neon PC got delayed due to the designated distribution system not working out, then Llamasoft were working flat out on Space Giraffe and now Gridrunner+++/360/HD.

Giles is working to update Neon to the latest PC stuff, such as Direct X, so it may be a while yet.

Are we allowed to know what happened back then? Why it fell through and who was involved. It was all hush hush at the time wasn't it.

Why bother wondering?

It's in the past, let's look to the future. 8)

There is no past or future, there is only the present moment.

My local techno night has visuals that are starting to match it, but clearly aren't Neon, so someone somewhere must be getting there.

It exists .. here on my machine ( and in various backups ) "re-updated" to some improvements.

Will be probably shipped around the same time of SG PC ( that is now in Beta Testing ).

Is the Neon definately coming to the PC? Can you give us an estimate of when Neon will be released for the PC? How will it be distributed? Is it possible to sell direct through digital download? Please let us know.

Thanks

There were some awesome visuals running at a club night in Cheltenham the other night, they were definitely interactive as the VJ had them controllable from both his laptop and synched to the lighting desk too so whatever they were running understood DMX commands, which is definitely something worth considering for Neon if it's ever going to get used in any kind of serious environment.

DMX is a piece of piss to implement too. Back when I had a real job I did a basic implementation for a customer driving huge movable lights. We started about 4pm and had it responding to the lighing desk ready for the lighting director by 8. It only took another day to tidy it all up and write some basic docs. As far as I know they've been using the same code ever since.

Those things were awesome, you could see the beams for miles.
