List of bootloaders

(complete)

Inside your preferences.txt file, there is a line that says "BootLoader = xxxx"

Usually the xxxx is "random" which (oddly enough) comes up with a random bootloader.

There are others available:

  • random - Random Bootloader

  • soul - The floating souls (Introversion: software with soul)

  • firsttime - The introduction

  • gameoflife - The game of life with Darwinians.

  • gameoflife_glow - same as above but with the glow round the darwinians.

  • spectrum - The old game loading screen for Darwinia

  • matrix - The darwinians falling like the matrix and spelling out the word 'Darwinia'

  • raytrace - The raytracer

  • fodder - This game is not endorsed in any way by Sensible Software

  • credits - The credits for the game

You can get these by entering these values into that line in your preferences file.

I think that's all of them. If there are any I've missed, please tell me.

Jackmn on IV's boards also mentions 'credits' as a bootloader, and "(t)here also seems to be a special date the gets its own loader, but I won't spoil that for you." Link: http://forums.introversion.co.uk/darwinia/...opic.php?t=1701

I mentioned 'credits' but it appears the board ate my edit. It does that sometimes.

And the Christmas bootloader has been mentioned before.
