Matrix Screensavers

Feuer · Oct 9, 2021

I'd like to share links to some matrix code (or digital rain) screensavers as the new movie Matrix Resurrections approaches.
I use the first one on my computer.

Looks good, I always use a matrix screen saver as my keyboard keys light up green. I don't know much about the new film so I wonder what the new one will be like

I think it is gonna be like John Wick. :) *joke*

Matrix movies are my favorite in the science fiction. I'm looking forward to the new movie.

I use first screen saver on my computer, and i use redpill and bluepill picture for my lockscreen.

Been using it on all my builds and builds I made for friends and whatnot for the past 20+ years.

EDIT : Just took the time and tried the 3 links you provided and they are indeed all inferiors in term of both look and feel when compared with the one I provided. I highly recommend you try this one, you will be truly amazed :

Yeah no not really. Try all four of them, and then tell me which one is better, you'll see, it's very obvious.

@Epsilons thanks for sharing, I will give it a try. I added it to first message.
@swarfega screensavers and matrix digital rain screensaver are different things for me.

It is a personal choice that @jaree1961 mentioned.

Let me know if you liked it.

Feuer · Oct 17, 2021

@Epsilons Sure I like it with its extra scenes, but I still prefer the first one.

Thanks.

You can disable the extra scenes fairly easily.

There :
Screensaver / Settings / Intro Sequence

Uncheck both of those options :

Show The Matrix title sequence
Show Trace program sequence

I just like a plain screensaver of just digital code, nothing else like messages and scenes etc. but that is the beauty of personalisation, you can have it how you want

Same here. It is why i use first screensaver, only digital codes without any settings. (beside you can change colour etc from its settings)

I also remember from Reloaded & Revolutions days, there was a digital code screensaver, but Neo was flying behind digital codes. Maybe it was a promotion of a computer game.

Well, in my test, the first one on your post (screensaversplanet version (43 KB)) had some major stuttering issue and the animation was not smooth at all compared the the "meticulous-software.co.uk version (240kb)" which run buttery smooth on my system.

Not sure why but that's my experience.

There has been so many over the years, so much choice. I cannot wait to see the new film, I now got the urge to watch the trilogy again for the umpteenth time :)

Thanks for the advice on the screensavers Have you noticed with all the new members you help, advise so many never click like or helpful etc.

I'm really excited for the new movie.

I have just downloaded Remastered versions of trilogy, and I wait December for watching them before the new movie.

P.S.
Don't forget to watch Animatrix too.
