Thank you for the screensavers, the lattice and 3d maze works good in windows 10 more than likely because of opengl that is how i found the web site. Opengl works better for windows 10 as far as i can see.
There is a version that does work properly on Windows Vista, 7, 8 and 10. It is the version that shipped with Windows NT 4.0. I believe Windows 95 version 2 had that same version? But for whatever reason, the ones from 98, 2000, and Millennium do not load the textures properly. I posted a link to it on this video. To this day I still use this screensaver. It's my favorite.
Mystery Screensaver Windows 98 32
Very cool! Takes me back to my first computer back in the 90s. Acer 56kb RAM and 4 mb hard drive running Windows 95. Dial up modem. I can almost still hear the screeching sound when it was connecting! I quickly taught myself to bypass the Acer browser and functions and use Windows directly. I played with screen savers all the time. Back then they were needed to "save your screen" life. I wish I could find the old Budweiser Frogs screensaver again- that was my favorite, but trademark laws have made it unavailable.
Honestly, great screensaver, reminds me of my childhood, before I personally scrapped our old Windows, er, was it 97 or 98, I can't remember, but either way I personally scrapped it when we got our Windows XP, so, yay! Only one problem persists, the wall texture is constantly swapped in and out with the roof texture, so much so that the roof texture is more common on the walls than the actual wall texture. Oh well, still fun, and hoping for an update that will fix that little glitch. Anyways, gotta go, Rockatoa, Brickticks out!
I'm still having the texture glitch problem even after disabling Fullscreen. I'm on Windows 10 with two monitors. I also thought I remembered there being a speed setting on the original screensaver. It moves very fast and it would be nice if I could slow it down a bit.
Cornell University's Maze in a Box, a project to create 3D graphics using the Atmel Mega32 microcontroller, used the 3D Maze screensaver as inspiration.[2] In 2017, independent video game developer Cahoots Malone made Screensaver Subterfuge, a video game based on the screensaver created using assets from the original ssmaze.scr file.[3]
Writing for Bustle, Jessica Blankenship was unable to recall anything that was as "mesmerizing, alluring, frustrating, and exquisite" as getting lost in the 3D Maze screensaver.[6] Slate's Jacob Brogan called the screensaver a "harried, first-person rush through a brick-walled labyrinth" likening it to an "intelligence at work" and went on to compare watching it to watching one's grandparents play Wolfenstein 3D "while sitting in silence as they haplessly mashed the keypad".[7]
The Pipes screensaver in Windows 95 (OSR2 onwards), 98, ME, NT 4.0 and 2000 will occasionally insert a Utah teapot as a joint between pipes when the screensaver is configured to draw multiple, traditional-style pipes with mixed joint types and a solid texture.[11] Windows 2000 and Windows XP have an undocumented texture in the Pipes screensaver (sspipes. scr) that makes the pipes red and white, similar to candy canes.[12]
An Easter egg that displays the names of all the volcanoes in the United States can be found in the 3D Text screensaver on all versions of Microsoft Windows prior to Windows XP by setting the text to display to "Volcano".[13] In Windows NT 3.5, setting the text to "I love NT" shows the names of the developers. "Rock" and "Beer" lists bands and breweries, respectively.[14] In Windows NT 4.0, the phrase to view the developer credits was changed to "not evil". Setting the text to "I love NT" will instead simply display "good?".[15]
