THE Intro
added on the 2000-06-17 17:39:20 by lord k
don't forget to see this intro.. is you are real scener you have this intro in da autoexec.bat :)
Very cool raytracer, cool music, cool all :)
These guys have made a powerfull raytrace Engine! This Intro is a must see!
What are you waiting for? Go and watch 'the intro'.
An amazing intro ! what a powerfull raytrace engine !
i'm in love!
that intro is a GREAT piece of art ! a must-be-seen !
A ray tracing engine, with cool scenes, and cool generated textures. The music sounds really good. In bonus some philosophical texts... "A Place like... Heaven 7"
it's magic
Yeah, the raytracing engine is -at this moment- the best ever seen on an intro, BUT the rtcr is not everything. One of the things I like most is the whole ambient this one achieved to create. It's a killer, an amazing 64k size production. I agree with U2, it's magic.
Very nice ambience with a very good engine. just see and dream
Best fucking intro i have ever seen, the raytracer almost made me horny ;)
Woooooooooooooooooow... incredible.
Splendid presentation, a must see, why? read the previous comments, they cover about all there is to say. I like it! :P
Surement the best demo/intro i have never seen (with State of Mind). Incredible code, gfx, music design. And it's a 64K.
low hat and thank you exceed.
low hat and thank you exceed.
Me and english !!! :((((
Surely the best demo/intro i have never seen (with State of Mind). Incredible code, gfx, music design. And it's a 64K.

beautiful! watch it without text though.
very phookin nice :)
ubelieveable.
just like u2 pointed out: the techniques used in this prod are superb in their own right, but they are also used very skillfully when creating the overall atmosphere. beautiful intro.
some kick-ass scenes! really a great intro...
watch this intro in a black room with a HUGE screen, with a HUGE sono ... is there an option to make it loop ???
Wowowo... The first time I seen it, I've look twice at the demo size. Amazing code, great athmosphere, and great music !
lush... shame on the 'poem' though
Heh,. Yabadabadou!!! Hevaaan sevaaan!!!
(Useless fact: My brother has written the music of Heaven7 (Oh,. and Hplus too :) in Minidisc!) =)
Normally, I said to myself:"I don't need to add a comment for these productions, everybody knows how these rockz!" but I shall do this, it's a shame not having comments for this baby!!!
Now, I am thinking it,. if this thing was a common raytracing demo, I wouldn't have had so big idea about this (But I would still watch it for technical reasons)
It's not only technically but designwise lovely too!!!
The 1st raytracing intro with design. Heh.. now after I have seen H7, I am bored to watch old raytracing demos (Except Nature Suxx which is still interesting technically.. and nice music and visuals too :)
A pure demo which uses both Tecnology&Pure Design(No something abstract wireframe trend :P) to make something unbeleivable to watch! Both technicall lovers&crazy design demolovers love this baby!!! Amazing! Just Amazing!!!
Comments:
-I don't have it in autoexec.bat but as a shortcut in my desktop =) (Useless fact: And I use an old icon of a Tree for that,. couldn't find something better :P)
-Heh,. I am in love too :)
-Why do you have problems with the Poem?
-I beleive in Exceed. Their next demo Spot was nice too.. I am waiting for Heaven8
Just Questions... Dreams!

Heh,.. sorry! I don't know what happened!
(Though,. the next thing I was wondering after the big accident, was if I will get 2 glops for that (And now 3 =))
Ohh,. I was decorating my desktop with a screenshot from Heaven7 too XD

What to say... everything in here has been said before.. To put it short: The most awesome combination of good code, stunning visuals and moody music i've ever seen.
If you're a real real scener you put this one into the "shell=" line of WIN.INI :)

wow! I always thought that nice raytracers were not good friends of design, but this demo proved me wrong! I love the music, just so relaxing, and the scene with the sea and the 'red' islands. it's one of those demos that everyone (as the comments before me prove) keep watching one time, and another, and another...
What to say more?
"demo in 64 KB" currently still the best 64k intro on PC ("das produkt" didn't change this at all) brilliant +-30k chiptune sounding like a 3MB mp3file, fast raycasting, idea, impression... VAU!

I hereby grant this intro the "Set's my dick on fire" award. I was lucky enough to see it at the party place.
Needless to say I creamed my panties. :)

Whoops, I didn't comment on this intro yet? Shame on me :).
There are two types of people - those who think that FR08 is the best intro ever, and those who think that Heaven 7 is the best intro ever. FR08 had innovative code (compression, texture generation) and music, but Heaven 7 still reigns in effects (crazy raytracing) and design. Just plain flawless (but so was fr08.. oops, I'm going to get into another war, better shut up :).
Only a couple nitpicks. One, the improper/misspelled English in the "poetry" (Optimus, that's what's wrong with it, from an American point of view :). Also, I'm not too keen on the "shrieky" percussion (the high pitch sound). It just doesn't seem appropriate for this intro.
So, please enjoy Heaven 7, but some of you shouldn't go so far to love it as to compromise your, umm, manhood (see comment from SiN above :).
PS, I was let down not to see an Exceed release at MS01, but I'll look forward to Assembly again.

Ughf, i got known the chiptune wasn't about 30 but about 80 kb but anyway i keep tending it sounds lika 3MB mp3 :)
and unlike phoenix, i think it suits the intro as well.
and.. yes, there were some grammar mistakes there (hoping there are not any by now yet) that degraded the intro a bit which is a big pitty,
i wonder when (or if any) something would beat this intro.

THE BEST INTRO IN THE WORLD (in my opinion) :P
beautiful first effect with lights
i dislike the political message of this prod
i love the music, it's a very good music i think
a must see

Great idea, perfect code. I have never heard so kewl music in 64k! It's 100% masterpiece.
I have to vote for it!
So beautiful, so cool...
So beautiful, so cool...
Ripped music
Damn god!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RIPPED?!? Are you crazy? Where from? Baah...
Dont tell me you havent heard time.xm from lone wolf / nocturnal ? :) .. but iam sure you have... somehow i believe the most dudes from your group have seen that chipdisk? :)
whoa! the music is pretty similar to lone wolf's "time's up" indeed, especially in the beginning... anyways, heaven7 is still the best intro of 2000.
seen better. seen worse. not my style though. but what crazy code where?
Heaven Seven ... 'nuff said. It's a total experience. Love it or leave it.
And what can the author of the soundtrack say? I've experienced few times that you compose a melody similar to another one, previously created, but this should and should not be this case.
So - what the exceed musician say himself?
So - what the exceed musician say himself?
the author of the soundtrack spoke already (d-lee) - atleast if i didn't totally get it wrong :)
d-lee didn't made the music, and i think one pattern is not the end of the world.
the melody part (which is awsome) has nothing to do with time.xm, so whattahell?
even jogeir ripped a lot, and noone even cared about it...but i can name lot of others, even my favourite demo hahaha...

still.. a nice intro.

Have to vote 4 this one too!!! Best thing I ever downloaded from the time I started to download demoscene productions! Code, some nice Music and pure Design (Without having to use "wanabbe art" trends,. but pure stuff with cool code!!!)
Awesome! From that time, I have told to myself "PC scene doesn't suck finally as much as I thought before.."

well... the prod is nice.. still i dont like when people rips 'anything' ... so lets go and hang the musician =)
Its so annoying he cannot stand for what he did either... no guts at all ;p

cool.
ok, we'll fine him with 10.000 $, and will forbid him for the next race.
those raytracing scenes combined with the beautiful music are an experience you shouldn't miss! it also has a nice 1bit vertical scroller in the background :)
Music is important. This music is ripped. Too bad, the rest isn't bad.
Hey,. can you give me please a link to the music that is supposed to be ripped? I can't find it by searching yet...
boring
the one and only intro which makes me believe that it could get better on the pc-scene.
quite perfect and amiga-stylish.

Remember it's a 64k intro!
It's one of the best intros because it got cool music and poetry. Watch it! Only true demosceners understand why its so good!!

A masterpiece! It has everything one could ever want from a scene production: glorious visuals, enchanting audios, groundbreaking code and even a profound message too.
Very nice ambience with a very good engine. just see and dream
Only 3 words to describe it:
IT FUCKING RULEZ!!
One of the best demos ever. Just Godlike.

this one ROCKS for sure!!
it has the taste of a very good demo with some nice raytracing and never seen before stuffs ( bump on the water, lighting cylinders, blurring )
the code, textures, music, scenes are great

please EXCEED make the scene a new heaven ^^
the bump sucks (first raytraced such though, maybe, sowhat, looks like it too) and sgeneboetry is always a bad thing. this is drain with better code. does one plus make the worlds fucking best intro?!?
nice, very nice!
shame on the ripped beginning of the soundtrack tho, baaaaaaaaad musician :)

simply the best one i've ever seen.

It roule over das Produkt. Grave.
Ripped music aside (this coming from a musician), it's bloody great! runs as smooth as a babie's ass and the blurred moments look amazing.
Yes, there's a lot of of tricks and hacks concerning the rayrtacing, but see if I care =)

Now THIS is inspiring!
I've heard rumours that the music is somewhat ripped but that doesn't bother me for some reason. It belongs in this intro, period.

Well... just to express my love.
yes, even if it isnt something mindblowing, its a nice trip. i end up reading texts too much and not seeing other things but well text is good only if you dont read it and try to understand since its bullshit anyway but alltogether with the rest of stuff it fits together very well uh this is my first post after a longer break on poeeeeets so let it be like this--
Looks good. Feels good. And it even runs fine on my old machine. :)
i still remember that i was standing at the mixing desk and felt into disbelief. i still love it and hope to see h8
This depresses me like demos used to. I could never do this :)
great stuff ! really good atmosphere for a 64k... very smoooooth too.
let's see it once again (and again and again and again and again) :)
for sure it's a "rectum crushing" kicking ass prod ;)

Technically it is awesome!Some friends o f mine got crazy with it....but me..i don't know... i like the concept very much,true inspiration,but i never feel like watcing it...maybe it's the music...Anyway,you maust see it cause it is great....
Really really amazing. A technical miracle. It has design, nice colors, and it's 64 kb. Download it

nothing to say.
Kudos for this masterpiece, Exceed. Thumbs up!
Great!

Anyway H7 is my preferred traza prod.

H7 is a very nice prod, tho it's not that technically top notch and the music is quite average. I'd like more intros with this quality, but it's not the best intro ever made, face it...

oh, yay. Great atmosphere for a demo, let alone a 64k. rulz.
One of the best intro ever...
One of the first prods I saw... and the one it made me fall in love with all this... the best thing was when the person (thx Interface 8*) who showed me this prod, said me "its a 64k one!" I drooled.
It just r0cks!! 8)
This is absolutely "flabergasting"!! Fantastic! Truly a must see. THe first time i saw this masterpiece i thought i had died and gone to heaven..... heaven 7
mmmmmh - nice atmosphere - lovely music! - is the music available for download ? - wanna listen to it in my mp3 player :)
Probably the best intro ever made. Everyone should see this, even non-sceners will enjoy this excellent piece of art.
And why should we care for non-scener people?
Spite:
maybe to be open-minded and not to become closed on your scene-world.
maybe to make your communauty growing.
or maybe just coz' there's a lot of marvelous things in the real world! :)

i've shown this intro to an media art expert and he called it kitch.
I bet that a "media art expert" is one of those who design trendy Mtv crap for commercials...
Kitch, art...whatever...who the hell can define that. This is Heaven Seven and nothing else. The visuals are very nice, don`t like the tune so much though. But a very good software "accelerated" intro.
Btw, hi D-Lee :)

Hey Wain! Hello, i haven't seen you since ages... Whazzup? :)
Its an ok prod:
It's got average music, average "design", crap sgenepoetry (which can atleast be disabled) and some better-than-average scenes. (and its very nice that it happens to work nicely on my 200mhz piece of junk) but somehow it just doesn't have anything which would make me want to watch it over and over again... still its _way_ better than most other real-time raytracing intros around.

Simply a masterpiece! One of the best - maybe THE best - 64K intros i ever saw. I think i've been watching this for about 50 times and it doesn't get boring.
Simply _VERY_ good!

well, we are fine again, thanks for the question. maybe we try a return in 2002.
Sorry guys, but being just a pathetic sorry little homy with no life what so ever and who has lived in a dark secluded cave for the past 10 years, WHAT exactly happened (the balcony accident)?
NeZbiE: well, we were working on some commercial prod., it was DAMN hot, {13th [!] of June FRIDAY [!!!]) so we did a break, and gone out for a while, smoking, talking, whatever, tho that F*UCKIN' balcony. from this point you can imagine, the whole crap broke, we fell off, hospital, etc...
beautiful (!)
just wanted to say i truely love this intro... that's it
This rocks!!!
cool :)
it´s more than cool - it´s great! [respect]
d-lee: a conclusion? don't dive into comertial things when you are not ready ;) (jokes away, hope you didn't experience a persistent shock or smth lyk dat), btw. there's reference to your intro at flipcode.com, in some article about raytracing :), did'ya know? i believe things like that make a coder happy :)
Remember it's a 64k intro!

Happy happy joy joy! very good, except for the 'poetry' :)
If there could be a award to be given, then am sure..... It would go to Exceed

A real eyecatcher, what can I say? If you have not seen it yet, do it even if you own a slower machine!! I prefer this one even if fr-08 rocks in technical aspects. Give your machine something beatiful to eat, grab this!
simple the best.
VERY BEAUTIFUL!!! Is it an Intro ? :)
Wow! I Like!! Superb Music I must say...
beatiful, just beatiful! enough said =)
Just luv it, thats it - the greatest intro !EVER!
What can be said? It`s nothing short of amazing. Leaves everything I`ve seen standing.
Amazing.

except for the usual "poetry", this is superb
great intro, though the musick isn't my thing really ..
A bit short, but very sweet...
I think it's good, but I don't really find it interesting (which is more a matter of personal preference rather than anything wrong with the demo). I love that walking animation in the beginning. Excellent work :-)
Wow....think I saw this production for the first time about a year ago......however on a old labtop.... poor shame. However I was in no doubt. This intro is by any means the greatest I've ever seen........
Damn it rockz...........sorry have to go... wanna c it again

Whoow, reeealy nice :D
coding, design, music and style are covered under psychadelically philosophy
I don't care if music is ripped, it's suitable. So far, this demo is my favourite!
those raytracing based intros have something uncommon that make them look different..
yeah maybe it was naive from a design/coherence point of view, but it had a different visual feeling..
still a nice intro, though i don't watch it very often.

Forgot to vote :)
Sorry ppl for my annoying question .. but germans .. u ever watched the o2 (ex-Viag-Interkom) advertisement ? i think they covered heaven seven, its the same idea, environment, ambiente ... :D
THE production i always show to the people who want to get introduced to the demoscene microcosm.

it is so beautiful. the colors, the music, everything. thank you.

I vote, even there's no need for other votes =)
it hurts your mother ass ass !
bohja!
It's really incredible what they put in 64K ! .. Great effects, excellent theme, good timing, nice ideas and great code. I love it.
ziz iz nize indeed!!!!
I can't believe I didn't comment it yet ... but there's nothing to add anyway.
It's simply one of the best productions ever. The realtime raytracing is amazing, the music is amazing, the design is amazing.

tho the music is rather painful outside of the demo :)

my personal favourite. period.
PC surprises me even more.. ;Q
THIS is art!
One of the rare goodlooking raytracing demos.
The religious poetry made me feel somehow uncomfortable, I don't know which is childish - the poetry or me... But never mind, this kicked FR08's ass anyway.
Beautiful. Best 64k so far.
preachy, kick-ass shit!
I suppose everything has been said about this Intro but, what the hell, I like long comments :)
I remember that when I first saw Heaven Seven, it became my favourite intro. Years have passed and it hasn't changed a bit. The design is awesome, the music creates an awesome mood, and for the code, Picard should get an Oscar or maybe a Noble prize.

I've forgot to vote, it seems.
No Comment Sorry
nice one :)
maybe THE best intro i've seen so far! really amazing visuals... i'd love to take a look at the source :)
PCB> you wouldnt understand the source, you just said that by saying what you did, lamer
stefan> taking a look at other peoples algorithms is lame? so i guess everybody nowadays is lame and we should all go home watch TV, eh?
luv it
It's never too late to thumb up one of the most awesome productions in the history of demomaking.
To think that in just a few years our PC's won't be able to run it... and it will be lost like tears in the rain.

better take that poetry-class again, jare ;)
Intros like this one increases our desires of making our own intros! that's the way to do it!
Heaven 7 is more than an inspiration. It is an entity striving to get into our minds. Pure visual power. This demo is awesome. It really gave me a push to get into the PC scene again.
I don't get sad of viewing this intro. I love it...
The ones feeling "touched" or "moved" by this intro should also watch "into the dark" by halcyon, http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=114
Heven Seven us pure Beauty!
rockz !
hmm!
Sweet muzic and nice effects... Perfect!
music is ripped!!!
listen for "Seventh Heaven" by Deep Purple (Abandon / 1998) and you belive me!

Listen to this music, and then Heaven Seven. If you find the slightest resemblance, I'll lick your arse on the stage at the next Assembly.

at the beginning - exactly the same...
what the heck are you listening then?
btw. gerbera's music was ripped from rammstein, crystal dream 2 had an ac/dc tune, and second reality is an irish folk song.
wow! they even made it to an irish folksong!
'exactly the same'
bllllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrghh
bllllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrghh
i think there is nothing to comment, even if the music was ripped. i'm just watching it again and again...
WTF?? There is 12 different tones / octave to play and it's like a billion songs previous made. For every song made it's like thousand using the same chords / tone patterns. As soon as anyone hears anything sounding like anything else it's a witchhunt about ripping and bla bla bla.... It's virtually impossible to make music that doesn't sound like anything else unless you've actually heard all the music in the world!
after 2years this still feels so good..
luv exceed peepz for this masterpiece!
(to all flaming/rippingbla: can't you
just enjoy it?)

Teenagers ...
I love this intro.
not only the best ever intro... the best ever prod. The impact in the demoscene world of H7 reachs the fire effect impact.
never thought it was possible to make this kind of raytracer engine!?
very good demo!

Waw ! =) Very nice intro .
Good job with Raytracing !! =)

Chandra: Hopefully, because it will be avaiable on DemoDVD II. - the PC intros :P
yes. its great. but is also MOST OVERRATED PROD ON POUET.
hum.. after seeing this intro, i thought i can't take vote over..
a raytracing scene in 64k ? uncredible.. but it's so beautiful !

classic work. great scenes that seem interrelated, good code, and good mood. best part of this is the ability to turn off the text, an option i've dreamt about when watching many other demos (definitely prolongs the rewatchability factor).
hum.. excellent thingie, but dunno, doesn't amaze me too much
Can't believe i haven't voted on this...
It's amazing, it's beautiful, it has ALOT of atmosphere, simply put one of the best intros i know

oh well... the graphics are truly outstanding, and the soundtrack is somewhat monumental. the styling seems to drive the engine to the maximum effect.
It's just pretty. And with the final version, there are no more spelling errors to distract from the mood... wish Exceed would make some more
very go0d :) go0d code gfx and music!
but im not a fan of those poem intros/demos, but beside that, very go0d production! :)

Alright, I don't think I need to go into how cool this prod is, it's been said over and over. However, here's something cool I found out...
I'm running KDE with WindowMaker as my window manager (Linux, for any who are not familiar). And I found that if you run Heaven Seven under Wine, then the mini-icon that WindowMaker creates for it is the actual demo! So I just run it looped with no sound and hide the window so it's just running 24/7 at the bottom of my screen in a little 40x40 pixel window ;-) Pretty cool stuff.

lame me.
Certainly must be one of the best intros, imho. Software rendering is not (and never will be) dead...
Raytracing rox!
Raytracing rox!
This is my favourite intro.
The dogs chopper!
yes i remeber to see this first on PC I think it was not real 64 and I looked and it is 64k and i smile and clap!! goood good!
Greeeeaaaat work ! I love it... Hmmm, what next ?
FR-08 was better I thought. Technically. Overall, this intro dominates fr-08 like a pimp and his bitch :)
Pretty amazing technically, excellent design, excellent soundtrack, and it looks just lovely. And as time passes, cpus get faster and I can keep turning the resolution up :)
When it was released, this was perhaps the best intro ever, now I think there have been better (project genesis, poem to a horse come to mind). But it still stays in my folder for favourite demos, and will do for a long time. I just hope exceed will make a follow up, with better sound engine, perhaps improve the raytracer as well, and either get rid of the poetry (which seems to rule and suck at the same time somehow) or at least put something good in.
Still, thankyou exceed for this classic :)

Amazing. Great code, great design.
This one rocks so hard.
It even performs quite well on my 350 PII.
And yes.. softwarerendering still rules.
(And shows who is really skilled)

One of my all-time favorites. Not only because it runs on every OS I tried it on. :-P
Stunning example of a software-rendered demo, which still looks unbelievably good over three years later. While the text could've used some cleaning up (it has potential, but the word choices make some of the passages sound awkward and slightly comical), all of the scenes have nice variation, and the opening image of the woman walking down the white light corridor makes a very powerful statement, and is the one image that really sticks with you after the demo is over. Software-driven in 64k... I love these productions.
o-h-! - m-y - g-o-d!
saw it finally. thought it was just hyped previously. but it's excellent. excellent raytracing running zappy on this old pc. the loop option was a good idea! =)
Exceed mindenekfölött.
Like good wine, this intro gets better year by year: by now it runs smoothly in high resolution on a decent pc and so it looks even better.
one of my all time favourites! giant design! nice atmosphere, neat raytracing engine.
amazing
only 167kb?? wow!!

watched this today again ... still fucking rulez ....

Voting a second time just to note that this intro withstands the test of time quite nicely... I *still* love the music. I *still* love the parts and the scenes and the way they're rendered. And I *still* love the upscrolling 'frombirthtodeath' drawing. How they crammed it into 64k is *still* a mystery. Two thumbs up, way up!
PS:To those who don't like the poetry: you can switch the text off in the final version of the intro.

it's getting old. It's time to update the top list !!
Yes, it sucks
Man, I've got a hard-on...
FR-08 was the one that started it all... but i think that Heaven 7 is the best prod out there.
This is last software intro... And it's damn c00l!!
it's a nice one but i don't consider the quasi raytracing such a big thing... :/
Best demoproduction I've ever seen. Ooops! It's a intro? Incredible.
:)
simply the best ... time to bump it up against those fb stuff
I think the reason Heaven Seven is so popular is because it shows great programming skills and has a very good design, so that basically everyone gets something out of it. Contrary to my first impression, even the lyrics make a lot of sense. The way I understand them, they refer to some essential questions, humans may ask about heaven, for which there are no answers. There is also a topic with some interesting replies about Heaven Seven: http://www.pouet.net/topic.php?which=755.
In my opinion this is the single best demo of all demos I know. Some recent intros may appear more technically stunning, but design- and contentwise these do not come close to Heaven Seven.

even the soundtrack is great ---> the cherry on the big cake
hplus and bakkslide 7 are better than this at least for me, but i guess this has more for everyone. And where is the port or divx of hplus?
That's what i call a 3D engine. ;)
It is very pretty, good music, good rendering and 3d, much more pleasant to look at than much current demo. And the fact that it have there a message to shock little but why a demo could not have a militant step, it's not difficult to find artists who express their political or philosophical choice !
It's very nice and well done.. even though i like fresnel 2 more
very good!
i used to think it's accelled for a long time :)
nuff said
Has my respect
Excellent visuals, music and design. It is the lyrics, the walking child and the 2D-art which makes this the best of the best.
About the music ripping: There is only a limited number of combinations of harmony, melody and rhythm. Since I could not find the MP3s this is supposed to be ripped from, I am quite sure it is not.

It is ok but failed to reach me.
woa, i still haven't voted for this one :)
the intro itself rulez, the message is a way too much catholic, or maybe i got it wrong

The lyrics are about the idea of afterlife. That idea is not limited to christianity at all. The intro starts with someone being born, then shows images in the background of children, then grown-ups, then old people. The ocean as the last scene is a nice symbol for the "final" destination.
There are only a few other productions with such well thought up lyrics and content.

Cool!
This demo rocks. It has, is and will allways be NR.1 on my list. 64KB! I cant fucking believe it!
Usualy I don't like PC-prods but this one got nice and moody design... Thumbs up lads!
It's simply the best...
A deserving top 10prod
crap in a hat! visuals and music are brilliant and even better used together. this one's semi-permanently looping at home.
This is awsome :D
I can't stand the noise sample, but the rest of the intro is incredible. Still one of the best 64k intros ever.
impressive, and with style too!
i never guessed raytracing could look so good
still one of the best 64ks out there
Pretty. :)
nothing else to say. thumb up:)
Lovely atmosphere, music and the ideas behind the poerty are good imo, but oh man the poetry is cringeworthely bad in the grammar dept..which really spoils it a lot...It still has much more style than most fr prods though.
kibaszottkurvajó --- this means "very very fucking cool" in hungarian
I thought the intro was nice, but that loud "bell" sound in the music was starting to give me a headache so I had to turn it off.
forever
great
yeah, one of the best
the best that there ever was :)

too mellow, slow pace... only liked the first scene with the humanoid
I remember this prod from a long time ago ... very beautiful (in places) and nice concept-demo
amazing, nice music also... a classic.
I think it's great :)
some three years after i first saw it .. and it still stays at the top. :)
Nice :)
For some reason I haven't commented on this. It's beautiful beautiful beautiful.
boring

I like this one. And I like the poem. I think it's a beautiful intro. What more can I say?

A must-see.

For sure a great prod. Yet it fails to impress me that much...
this one oozes quality, even the infofile (flash) was done with care
wicked!
Whoa! IT'A KEEPER! Awesome production quality, gfx, music and the feel of the piece are all excellent! It runs pretty sweet on even my P3 Panasonic lappy.
best demo ever
nice realtime raytracing demonstration

No comment!

beeeautiful.
I recall we were having a Network + Centolos miniparty at the Network HQ (Leunams' house ;) these days... I came there with a floppy from home and said: "We all have to watch this NOW" and so we became enlightened. Definitely made me respect PC scene more :)
5 years old and still the best there is.
woot i didn't thumb it yet?

For being 64k and 2000 it is awesome! Nice atmosphere.
The best PC intro ever made.

Amazing.
Yup, the best one i've seen so far... I keep looking at it!
elegant and impressive for a 64k
legendary demo, excellent work!
I watched it again recently on my old notebook, still so good and tastyfull, even @450[Mhz]... This one is definitively one the best.
nice stuff being 5 years old :D
roxxors
compared to new productions you can see the prods age of course but it is still a ruler extraordinaire! =)
didn`t commented it yet?
Never thumped it up yet :D anyhow with Final Audition by Plastic we have a new no1 ;D DOnt you think those bubbles from this demo look like the ones from Heaven 7 ? :D
hitchhikr t'es un gros connard!
Go hand in hand with your friend Dipswitch and Unlock: you've the same level (LOW).
oh well, I needed this 'ep' testicle hair to remind me of how great this intro really is.
perfect!!! my favorite 64KB PC demo of all times...
Yeah, incredible piece of art indeed! Totally rocks!

Bloody Brilliant :)
Best DOS production I've seen so far. I should have thumbed it up ages ago. :)
Wowser! 8)
Old school demo at its time. I remember this. Nice.
Real time raytracing with style
classic!
hahahah over-rated :)
It rocks... unseen you L!
can't thumb this down
fucking awesome
This is art. Its not just the tech which is impressive but the composition is great. Then there is music which fits too and sounds great by itself.
Beautiful.
Excellent gfx. Music is ok. Message of the text is iffy, or at least not expressed well. The demo would be awesome without it.
hmm never thumbed this one. yes it is awesome!
fantastic
Seen twice the week but never thumbed? How could I? ;)
what blackpawn said
very good for 2000 ;-)
RA: This is still very very good for a 2006. :P
me: "so, darling, what demo/intro are we going to show the guests?"
my girlfriend: "oh, let's just show the best one: heaven7"
my girlfriend: "oh, let's just show the best one: heaven7"
A good 64k demo, and you can even turn the awful poetry off!
Rulez but imho overrated. :)
Nice, but not to exciting. I'll take into consideration that it's a 2000-prod and give it a thumb up :)
holy
i want to apologize to shaman for having played heaven7 at breakpoint without asking him.
sorry shaman. we just HAD to :)
sorry shaman. we just HAD to :)
hm and yes, its 2006, and this prod still owning!
All of the above positive comments :)
nice production, but i'd like to notice that music here is a rip. original xm was composed by lonewolf (also for intro). what we can see here is just an extended remix.
i remember me watching this, i was mesmerized. I didn't even know what demoscene is back then.
So BIG THUMB for Heaven7!
So BIG THUMB for Heaven7!
it was "time's up" by lone wolf. you can find this tune in "emissions #4" chip-pack. analyze their patterns, especially tremoring pad (copy+paste procedure rocks).
so much beautifull, haaaa realtime raytracing is what i've been waiting so much long time on my amiga :)
This thumb should have been added years ago!!
Wonder why I did never thumb this massive prod up ... *gg*
The best 64k ever. Deserves 10 thumbs up.
No doubt the code is great, but it could have done without the pseudo meaningfull drivel.
Everything's been said already
this still has one of my favourite soundtracks, not to metion the part with the balls in the water is just beautiful, it always reminds me of this old donald duck story that I read when i was a kid
masterpiece.
i really should thumb this down because this doesn't deserve the place in top of most popular intros... but i'm pussy like this intro is so i'm thumbing it up. i suck
Marvelous!
two words: in-creible
good
mmx optimize my sw-renderer me beaufitul.
Everythings been said...oh someone said that.
best.
This prod reminds me why I got bored with the demoscene at that time. That stupid scene-poetry just steals all the attention from the coolish looking raytracer.
forever!
"hetedik menyország" vagy "mét menyország" ?
how teh hell did i forgot to thumb this up?!
Don't really like the music. Interesting questionning though.
TrX: For the same reason I forgot too
one of my favourite 64k's. i remember when I fitst saw it quite long time ago. ;) and I'm still as amazed as then.
trace: you're not alone
rulez
This is just like hausgemacht!... fucking excellent
rulez of course!
For me too.
best demo ever, but will rgba make heaven-8 with the new raytrace engine ...?
rulez :)
i will never understand why this is intro is so popular.
"i will never understand why this is intro is so popular." maybe because when it was released, in 2000" in pushed boundaries.. h7 is and will always be one of the best 64k intros ever.
and chaves, when did you ever write anything nearly as impressive as anything in heaven 7? way to comment 2000 stuff in 2006 and be like "omg i no understand, this so popular me so dumb"

Gargaj, your remix of Shaman's H7 tune rocked hard at our anniversary party, in the Tribute2... compo. Thanks again man! ;)

Mide 3D you are an idiot :D
Lets not get our panties in a bind geez, It's just an opinion.
this is one is fucking great!
...It's Heaven 7...
Can't believe I haven't thumbed this up yet... One of my favourites;)
One of the best prods that I ever seen...
why havent this prod been giving a CDC yet??
When I get enough glops to give a CDC, THIS is where it's going!!
d0h!
sowieso
This needs more CDCs
This one is very nice!
i wish i could have more thumbs...
huh? i have seen this since i got into the scene, but i never seemed to get around to getting my 2 cents on this one...
Eyecandy
A masterpiece.
I like this intro! Raytracer rulezzz!!!
really was ahead of its time
still excellent
off world story - excellent!
GREAT Prod!
noooo they be stealin my 2nd place popularity!
(is this helping actually?)
(is this helping actually?)
Every day I check if .debris finally is on second place of the pouet top 10, but rarely I log in into pouet. I just checked. I never thumbed this.
I don't think this is the best intro ever (hah!), but surely this is worth a thumb up. A big one.
I don't think this is the best intro ever (hah!), but surely this is worth a thumb up. A big one.
OK, here is the full story. I wanted to know if you write the German word "Daumen" in English as "thumb" or "thump". I just can't remember, I am that bad in orthography, especially English. So i checked at wikipedia, and of course it's a 'b', but when i saw the image of the thumb, i knew i have to add that on pouet. but to what production? I only need one more comment to get my first CDC, so i really had to add one positive comment to some production. which one?
let's check the top ten. first one: ours. second one: heaven seven. There is no discussion that this intro deserves a thumb up, and that everyone who would ever thumb this down does not deserve a pouet account.

(I forgot to thumb too - but nut to spel - ah hell)
Thank you for this moving story Chaos :')
yup!
Ugly hand!
quite average raytracer, but the ambience and the music are so good. With stash+jizz, one of _the intros_ in the history of key intros.
Worth watching again.
jsyk!
jsyk!

howcome i could forget to thumb this one up.

simply great
has to be a thumb
the Youtube video is notosogood...
unlike "das produkkt" or "debris", this piece has some ungrappable esence that farbrausch have imho never ever reached - heaven seven has pure scene spirit. and this spirit cannot be reached by 3d flybys only, no matter how brilliant they are. heaven seven still roxx after 7-8 years which is something un4seen..

Thumb ofcourse!
no thumb yet from me? uh oh, one of the best intros ever
nice engine, nice style, what can i say - some claim it's cheesy but i like it!
Very stylish and beautiful. Not one I would watch every day, but definately one I'd keep.
seven years old and still lookin like heaven :)
omfg
This is not beautiful.
still a nice 64k, yet a bit blocky at 800x600, yet a bit short, but cool effects and music! also another thumb for also running in DOS!
this intro still rocks!
True..
and this music is so.. so..
and this music is so.. so..
The prod everyone forgets to thumb up.
Exceed needs to come back.
How???How did it reach the all-time-top?
not bad
one of my all time favourites. killer soundtrack and nice overlay images in top of the atleast decent tracer. brilliant!
Runs perfectly under WINE on Linux ^^
Still looking good today. And the music is great. Good job.
Wow!
Past Seven Years it's Very Gooooood... Seven Heaven !
awful music, corny text, some balls floating around... I couldn't even bother watching it to the end.
If you think that it's your opinion but for the year and the size it's a big performance.
For me, it's one of the best demo that i know

girl figure of light, walks a corridor,
blue clouds, and title in white light,
3 spheres, planet alike, floating, camera walks around,

3D balls with sprite lights around, move around,
green geometrical figure with a hole in it, balls move around,
overlayed green light sprites fill the screen, move around,
underlayed some faces pictures scroll downwards,
more balls, 3D, raytraced, on a reflecting plane,
3D balls figure, fractal balls, pyramid, rotating,
a little building is constructed, blue stars and ambient around, a kind of pagoda with a half, magenta ball in it,
the camera enters the half ball and within are some more planet alike balls, textured, floating in a liquid,
greeting words,

Pure magic. Or hardcore math & coding.

65,536 Bytes and the year 2000 two facts that are completely unbelievable.
the very BEST!
Aged wonderfully
:)
considering all the props I've given this over the years, I can't understand why my thumb is missing.
I would also like to thumb up Chaos' 2nd comment.

This was the ultimate peak of the era of software rendered demos on PC.
WUNDERSCHÖN !
This is beautiful...a true masterpiece that many current prods should look up to.
everytime i watch this one, the texts massively annoy me, as they keep drawing my attention from the real deal. this prod rules and rules. beautiful.
Awesome! I love these masterpieces!
!!
No Words ! just <3
Up there with the all time best!
Classic!! this is heaven!
I don't know, I've never really found this that amazing. The raytracing is cool from a technical point of view but in order to show it off a lot of rather generic scenes are used (reflectoballs!) which isn't that interesting to look at.
FART
love this demo
All Time Fav
who the fuck thumbed this down :) best 64k intro ever?
Hello skills.
Always a nice intro, legend
amazing !
just watched it again with the hires hack. Truly legendary!
when demos got perfect...
!!
Works very nicely in high res (just two small glitches and a low res surface).
Good one. Nice music & atmosphere.
shows that raytracing in 64h is more than just stupid balls!
because you deserve it. period.
One of the best sexual experiences in my whole life..
Fantastic !
the music is just so wonderfull.
Amaaaaaaazin' kewl!!!!!!
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the classical 64k
rulez
I like this demo but I fail to see what all the fuss is about. Is it the poetry? The music? The graphics\stlye\art?
I'm impressed by the size but other than that it's just above average to me.

A must. Still a great pleasure to watch now.
@x86-64: it was realtime raytracing, back in 2000.
i will never forget this
still the best :)
best in all time
ok i guess over time my opinion averages out to a thumb but god fuck the 'poetry' in it
Wait. I never thumbed this up?
the music is what makes this awsome for me :)
It's full of unfulfilled dreams.
Best prod ever!
This demo was release in the same year that the fr-08 do, and I will say this is better than fr-08
:D cool!!

Propably should thumb this down, but can't deny the fact that it's technically ok for a nine years old intro. Let's just say I second uncle-x
in the other hand...
reminds me of Akte-X (The X-Files)
late voting but here is my:

Hi, did anyone test this under windows 7 ?
I seem to have a freeze on first screen after loading, i'm not sure why...

The routines are pretty average for 2000, nevertheless they're nicely optimized for a 64k.
The (artificial) hype however is not for the design or for the code, rather for the text (message), which is an attempt to surprise the unaware viewer with difficult philosophical/spiritual questions and promote a stoic-pessimistic approach.
(The average scener in his teens or twenties probably isn't prepared for dealing with these questions of religion and is probably caught completely off-guard.)

A masterpiece almost ruined by the scene poetry, thanks god for that "No text" option.
there is a no text option? :)
!
numtek, yes there is in the windows version.
pure art
always loved this one, but never voted.
Meh.
Very hard not to like this one!
forgotten thumb? the submit button will tell.
in any case: what chaos said: :)

wah, no thumb?
Hah! Never rated this ;-)
For a y2k production, it definately set standards along with fr-08. It doesn't quite make it up there, but that's mainly due to the fact that a chiptune was used instead of a synth. Yeah well - I'm an audio-oriented guy. Does desserve a big thumb up none the less!

yep!
If not for 'no text' this would have been a piggy, maybe even a sucks. The scene poetry made me cringe then, and it makes me cringe now. But... the rest of the intro is such an achievement.
Also, it's best to watch with the MFX 'soundtrack' ;)

what a load of crock
Classic.
Heaven

What a smooth and moodish trip.
wonderful ...
Holy crap, I didn't thumb this up? This was like one of my first demos!
I love everything about this demo except for the rather cringe-worthy (IMO) scene poetry (Thank heavens it's optional).
Other than that, it's a solid production deserving the praise it has.

Meh.

If you want to enjoy this prod at a higher resolution than the available ones, set a BP at 00401203 (after UPX unpacking), then change the EAX (width) and EDX (height) registers. In order to avoid glitches, try to stick to multiples of the original resolutions.
smoothy moody, love this
long overdue thumb, better late than never :)
Better 15 years too late than never.
15 years later and still able to amaze me
Great!
Impressively raytraced and very enjoyable music too! A true classic, legendary!
immortal!
oh yes! erődemonstráció
obvious thumb =) also nice that the win version runs perfectly as-is on my working laptop. nowadays, that's not a common feature ;)
I watched this million times and never thumbed it up. But now. Just wow.
Kaspersky SAys Trojan ATV.n3 virus and deletes :(
good one
Just perfect.

Emotional!
16 years on and still looks fresh!
This one is very polished and was for its time pretty advanced and fast. Quite cheesy texts though. Still getting a goose skin when I see the human form.
Not bad, but it always bored the living hell out of me.
Scene poetry is cheesy as fuck, but overall this is pretty decent
nice raytracer!
i remember watching this demo at that time in school. this made the others speechless, but i still wanted more than walking ghosts... ;-)
i wonder why i never commented on this. here goes ze thumbs!
This is the very first demo that touched me deep, have a nice reminder to keep up; never is too late!
this is undoubtly one of my fav demos, props!

Would be funny to see a shadertoy version :D
great style. i remember playing this on the win2000-pc's at school, when nokia-handys where in...
Forgotten thumb!
Great intro. Still nice to watch.
i love this so much!
Always excellent!
Also a neat combo breaker, ie first non-TBL intro in numerical order for prod! ;-)

Still gorgeous!
That was first demoscene thing that I've seen in my life.
this has got to be rtx before rtx
Oh yes. Very nice demo, actually.
one of my fave intros of all time
pretty cool
all time fav <3
Best 64K ever.
Nice prod, too bad that DOS version is GUS only :(
I have to admit that this is great.
this prod is still good
is cool
The greatest Demo of all time, imo.
Fabulous Ray tracing. Legendary philosophical message.

it's about time to thumb this up. feels very retro these days, but I was very impressed in the past and I still like it.
old days... still love this music and the whole prod!
cool
I wasn't active on that time when this intro was released. Later I got back into scene again and I went through lots of demos and intros from those times which I "lost". If I think about the time when this intro was released, I understand the hype and love towards it, but to be honest, I personally don't experience special feelings when I watch this intro. It's ok, the music is nice, but that's it. Good, but not the most best intro ever :)
is it possible to run this without mmx? can somebody make a patch to use non-mmx instructions (but require a faster cpu obviously)
it's actually pretty annoying that the linked youtube video is from the hires version, and not the original.
one of the top ever releases of last century (for sure)
When we die this is where the sceners will go.
Nice 64k demos, for sure !
But... I read that you need a GUS to hear the sound and I understand that ;-)
But... what about the technical specs ? Which PC can run this demo ? It seems, I can't run it with my retroPC if I don't run with the good video card under MSDOS 6.22. It's ok with an ATI Radeon 9600 Pro AGP... Ok with a Matrox Mystique 220 PCI and I receive a "VESA error" message with a S3 Virge DX.
So... Not really a problem but if someone know what is the problem with the S3 Virge DX (Not enough recent for this demo ?)...
Another test with the MisterFPGA and the AO486 core is ok ;-)
Thank you !

Very nice!!
I realized I've never added a thumb up for Heaven 7. It's one of the intros that introduced me to demoscene.

Kind of hard to believe it is 24 years old, still looks great! It was an instant favorite.
dos or die!! great prod!!
