Lasers

I know it's just lines on a screen but like the Magic module and other similar savers, there's just something cool about the Lasers module. I do wish it worked a little slower on modern systems so as to approach what feels more like light show speed but the frenetic pace does give an exciting colorful display.

The actual effect of a Laser line being drawn in this way was not something available in a module again until Magic Turtle some years later. Although other modules were able to fill the screen with interesting colored line using a variety of methods, no other modules went for the single origin point like Lasers did.


LASERS (tm)

Mulit-colored lasers that clear your screen and can create interesting patterns.

The number of lasers can be varied from 1-8.

The width of the laser traces can be varied from 1 to 100, as well as Infinite.

To hear the laser sound, use the sound control (if sound capability is available).

Concept by Bill Stewart and Ian MacDonald.

Works under Windows XP & Vista in greater than 256 but can be too fast for some.
