SGI: Computer Graphics

Project Nedryland...

Anyone seen this yet?

http://jpos.jurassicpark.sk/

The guy has done a pretty good recreation of IRIX.

It looks like he is going to make some type of online game out of it.

I can't wait!


I have been waiting for someone to make an recreation GUI of the Park Systems and the alarms/alerts that go off when everything fails.

Maybe this is it...

He contacted me before - year for some hints about irix gui - he never sit behind real SGI :)

Pretty Good, considering he's never used IRIX.

Hello all,
I am working on this Project, and I've using Main Jurassic Park Console as IRIX console, theres fictional basic commands.

Which basic IRIX commands cannot be missed ?

Thanks.
"hinv"... but with which output ? Neither Crimson nor Indigo supported 4 processors, isn't it ?

See the hinv/gfxinfo posts here .
gmemusage and gr_osview are the most obvious.

Ok, but what doing this command,
is possibly to paste here some OUTPUT CODE ?
BTW Main console is accessible only for logged users,

It looks some like this.
"hinv" lists the hardware inventory. You can see many examples in the "Sgi: hinv" sub-forum. In the Isla Nubar control room, there are Crimsons and Indigos, but none of them are multiprocessors machines, as opposite to the graphical output of the gr_osview application on your desktop.

IIRC, the actual screen in the movie does show a multi-CPU gr_osview output. Since the Crimson is indeed a single CPU system, I think it's mentioned in the 'sgi hardware in the movies' thread somewhere that the Crimson was probably acting as a display host for a PowerSeries behind the scenes.

Edit: found it in Gerhard's page: http://www.sgistuff.net/funstuff/hollywood/jpark.html

Pretty good, especially if you don't have an Irix computer ... here's what an actual terminal looks like with (almost) the same display (gocr-ed your photo, so not perfect)

Oh, one more thing ... there's no Flash for Irix, so using Flash is a little inappropriate :P
In flash is whole 'game' created, on background work with php and mysql. It is for BROWSER !

Ah, I forgot. Postmodern society .... a reconstruction of a simulation, on x86, with the real thing thrown aside. Cool :P
Is the game going to have the part where the T-Rex shreds Lex and Tim's SUV? Cause, that was cool. :mrgreen:

Oh BTW did anyone else see the report that just came out about the clamping strength of T-Rex's jaws? The same load as being sat upon by a "medium sized elephant," in NPR's typically weird conjure-up-an-image phraseology...

6.5 was the last major release of IRIX, released in 1998. I'd have to check what the copyright notices were for the various versions of IRIX, but for the timeperiod of Jurassic Park it'd probably be 4.0.5, 1991-1993 era. 6.5 didn't run on R3000s or on Crimson.

If you really want the IRIX experience you'd need to code ElectroPaint as a screensaver in the Flash environment.

easier said than done I'm sure. There was a screensaver that mimicked ElectroPaint done several years ago, but it isn't even close.
