A while back I was playing with some Managed DirectX 9 in C# .NET. I needed a break from some other stuff I was doing this weekend, so dived back into it for a while. Came up with this: https://www.bit-101.com/screensavers/BIT-101_3D.zip.
You’ll need the .NET framework installed as well as the Managed DirectX 9 runtime, which you can get here. Note, it’s something like a 34 meg download, which kind of offsets the fact that the screensaver is only about 6k! But, I’ll no doubt be doing more stuff with DX, as well as hopefully inspiring some others to do so. So it might be nice to have installed.
Note #2. Install the saver at your own risk. I can guarantee there’s nothing malicious in it, but I’m still a C# noob. The worst it’s done to me is throw an unhandled exception. But God only knows the destruction I’m capable of.
For the brave few who actually do install it and get it running, let me know what you think.
