I added the .nfo and .diz files twice for production https://demozoo.org/productions/327213/
Can you please remove the duplicates? Thank you.

RufUsul: Can confirm it does crop out everything after the second / - which in turn makes the link invalid. Do you have a Github account? Would be fantastic if you can file this as an issue on there.

Wil: When you add something under a competition, that competition can be defined as a production, graphic or music entry, but the "released at" does not have that distinction - so the solution there is to create the entry beforehand, and then hook it in after the fact.

Please delete https://demozoo.org/music/336352/
dupe of https://demozoo.org/music/291050/

Please add https://demozoo.org/music/291050/ to the soundtrack of https://demozoo.org/productions/329670/
It's not possible to select it from the dropdown menu.

Also, Motion https://demozoo.org/groups/140821/ is a c64 group from Norway, not the c64 group from Finland https://demozoo.org/groups/64979/ as originally in the database.
Please add (c64/.fi) and (c64/.no) suffixes and info text accordingly.

https://demozoo.org/productions/336665/ (PSX Intro 3) is a duplicate of https://demozoo.org/productions/324582/

The dupe uses "PSX Intro 3" as name, whereas the existing entry is using "PSX Intro 7" instead.
The difference comes from:

"PSX Intro 3" is inherited from the "hs_psxintro3.zip" filename

"PSX Intro 7" is inherited from the High Society website https://web.archive.org/web/20080616185147/http://www.high-society.at/downloads/hs_psxintro7.php

The first screenshot is from our PC demo so please remove it.

Hi, there is something very wrong with the display of my latest picture. Apart from my own ugly gob I mean. It looks ok on the image page itself, but the thumbnail version and hover version is missing colors.

Archmage - 16:45 26 January 2024 #

With reference to above post, I uploaded a proper png. I can't delete the original faulty one though, and the png in the lha is most likely borked as well.

menace - 09:42 28 January 2024 #

Archmage: Seems it was fixed by one of the other admins, so that's good. Just a heads-up that we have RECOIL on our backend so you can actually just upload the .iff :) Good to know for the future!

I kinda forgot that videos don't work as previews here, but they do all me to upload them for some reason...

Can someone with proper edit privs remove the second (broken) "screenshot"?
https://demozoo.org/productions/335375/

Thanks, and many apologies.

menace - 10:27 29 January 2024 #

All Kraksnax releases that are tagged "game" are cracked games, full releases. I believe they violate the Demozoo rules, and should be deleted.

The productions that give credit to https://demozoo.org/sceners/70489/ for the font refer to the brand "Apple Macintosh" actually, not a person. I'm not sure if that should be noted perhaps on the scener profile.

hi! I'm one of the original founder of a small, old pc demo group and would like to make some corrections for the group page:
https://demozoo.org/groups/8710/

"Twin Sectors Inc. was a Hungarian pc demo group, formed in 1990 by TSC https://demozoo.org/sceners/10944/ & Greg https://demozoo.org/sceners/11088/ who were shortly joined by Genesis https://demozoo.org/sceners/376/. During the summer of 1991 they organised the very first party to hold PC competitions; the second party with official PC compos was Assembly 1992. They are also known for releasing the first Hungarian diskmag, Scanner.

After the team expanded beyond control, the core members founded Phantom Dezign https://demozoo.org/groups/8016/ in 1994 and later most of the active members formed Shock! https://demozoo.org/groups/11058/ and eventually transitioned to AstroideA https://demozoo.org/groups/375/ in the late-90s."

As for the organised parties I'd like to add the above mentioned Twin Sectors Inc party https://demozoo.org/parties/414/ which was held in July 1991.

Thank you for doing demozoo, it was such a blast to do demoscene archeology here! :)

Hello, i guess https://demozoo.org/groups/49415/ and https://demozoo.org/productions/110590/ are the same production.

Can you please add a note to https://demozoo.org/music/323312/ that it's a Protracker conversion of https://demozoo.org/music/152689/

Can I please bump the above group fix? https://demozoo.org/forums/post/4620/#post-4620
Thanks for looking into it and sorry for the noise!

menace - 20:31 11 March 2024 #

greg: Please do not bump things. We'll get to everything, just maybe not immediately. I'll look at your corrections now, and a few things jump out at me: You've deleted Dada, Jones and Valentine from the history, where do they fit in?

Adding your group as an organizer of the event is something every user can do if logged in, but I did it for you here.

The original composer was Mindstorm / Scoopex. He used a non-standard format/tracker called SIDMON in Amiga. I just converted to protracker

I thought this information is worth preserving on the music entry https://demozoo.org/music/288262/ . Can you add a note to the music entry?

greg - 07:29 13 March 2024 #

menace: sorry for the noise and thanks for the fix! while Dada, Jones and Valentine were early members, but they were not founders. They join have joined the team once we started to expand beyond our home city. TSC and myself were schoolmates, Genesis went to a school in the same city. We made an advertisement in a gaming newspaper in early 1991 to recruit new members, or just find any other people crazy enough to be interested in starting a demo scene on the PC. Jones did become a major contributor to our early works, Valentine I think has left to Abaddon even before we used any of his music to any releases...

in the newly updated story (thanks again!) the link to the second related group AstroideA (https://demozoo.org/groups/375/) doesn't seem to work for me. Also the group name is not displayed properly I see the (broken) link directly.

menace - 11:43 13 March 2024 #

greg: Thanks for clarifications. I've fixed the AstroideA link, it was a case of me putting the link in the wrong part of the markdown :) All good now.

Hello, it seems I have a cracktro you don't have : Impact CD 25 https://demozoo.org/productions/135625 I created a MSA disk with just the demo (not the cracked games) I would like to send you. How do I do that? You talk about a FTP server : what's the address? login/password or Anonymous/email?
I ripped soundtrack music (great music, the main interest of this demo), and scrolltext content. I'll make a Javascript remake of that demo this weekend.
