Lord of the Rings 3D Screen Saver 1.5

Lord of the Rings 3D Screen Saver 1.5 displays images from the upcoming movie The Fellowship of the Ring, the first in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but unlike other screensavers it displays them in 3D. The program also features a countdown to the release of the movie as well as OpenGL 3D acceleration.

SETTINGS

The following configuration options are available. (It is recommended that you play with the options to find what runs best on your PC and what you think looks best):

• Number of Rings: Sets how many rings are falling.
• Ring Size: Sets the size of the falling rings. This can effect the speed. If you have big rings, you don't need as many of them to have a good looking effect. Keep that in mind.
• Ring Colour: Lets you choose between gold, silver, bronze and other coloured rings, or you can have a mix of them all.
• Show Sparks When Rings Collide: When enabled sparks will fly out when rings bounce off each other.
• Viewing Angle: Lets you select how you view the falling rings: from the front (they fall down the screen), top down (they fall away from you), bottom up (they fall towards you), or random which rotates the view freely (IMHO very cool).
• Zoom In And Show Pictures: When turned on the screen saver will randomly zoom in on a ring and display a picture.
• Show Picture Captions: Turns the picture captions on and off.
• Slow down time when zooming in: With this you can set whether the screen saver slows down the falling rings when it zooms in on a ring, or if the camera simply travels with the ring as it falls. You can also have it random do either each time it zooms in.
• Show Clock: Displays the current time in the middle of the screen.
• Clock 12 Hour Mode: For those of you who don't like (or can't work out) 24 hour time this will display 12 hour time instead.
• Clock Size: Sets how big the clock is on the screen.
• Play Music: Turn this on for background music to play while the screensaver is running.
• Selected Music: If you'd prefer just one of the tunes play, you can select it here, or select Random to have a random tune play.
