Atariscne.Org
Dear visitor,

as you've probably noticed, the DHS.NU site have slowly but steady become less and less updated with news over the last decade or so, to the point that it's only a handful of articles every year.

There are many factors playing in, but the most important have been that we need more editors, but a home cooked and unflexible way to update the site with new content have been a show stopper.

But now, things change. A bunch of Atari demoscene veterans have joined forces to remedy the sitation. We've opened a new site for news about the Atariscene world. We hope it will be successful and live for many years to come.

DHS.NU will become a read only site in steps, starting with the news section. There are 1717 articles in the archive spanning thirty years. We'll show a few random articles here on the front page and in the archive you can browse year over year.

We'd like to thank everyone who has visited DHS.NU to read demoscene news over the years and hope you'll find Atariscne.org a good replacement!


Blast from the past
(random news articles from 1995-2025)

Rmac v2.0.0 released with many new features August 27th, 2019
GGN of KüA writes:

Hi,

rmac, the macro assembler for all Atari computers has recently reached version v2.0.0. New notable features include:

- DSP56001 support (outputting .lod and .p56 formats, embedding in ST .prg binaries planned)
- Object Processor (Atari Jaguar) mode
- 68020+ support
- 68881/68882 (FPU) support
- 68851 (PMMU) support

Plus the usual old features work with all the above modes, such as:

- Macros
- (nested) repeats
- That warm fuzzy feeling that you're using an Atari product :)


Have fun with it - we certainly do!

Checkpoint July 20th, 1998
Checkpoint (That's Defjam, Joe Cool and 505) are working on the Modulation #2 music compile. Well, now we know for sure that we didn't miss the #2 release, it was a bit confusing with #3 coming before #2.. But you never know with germans ;)

Silly Venture 2020+1 Summer August 24th, 2021
As most of you probably know, Silly Venture 2020+1 Summer took place last weekend in Gdansk, Poland.

The party was a hybrid of physical/online with a special supporter ticket if you wanted to vote without being at the party place.

We saw what could probably be seen as the best graphics competitions in Atari history. Very very good entries for XL, ST and Falcon. Then KK of Altair surprised many with an STe-port of his (work in progress) Dread Amiga game, that's a texturemapped FPS, somewhere between Wolf3D and Doom with very Doom-like style.

And finally there were some incredible demos shown, as expected from Silly Venture. The winning demos in the Lynx and ST demo compos are simply incredible. The Lynx demo defies all reason, did they not realise that's an 8-bit 65sc02 machine from 1989 they are working with?? Madness. And finally, most have likely seen it already but The Overlanders made a comeback! And holy cow what a comeback. Over ten minutes of effects, design, music and graphics of superb-quality. That's an incredible demo and it's wonderful to see Overlanders back after 22 years (don't forget the screen in Nostalic-o-demo :-)).

The releases are showing up bit by bit as does video recordings. Check out the links below to watch/download!

Thanks to all the guys doing these pictures, musics, demos, intros, games and what not, you're awesome! And double thanks the Silly Venture crew who served us with the online stream. Finally thanks to the guys who showed up for the Jitsi evening while watching the compos, had a great time :)
