I wanted to pretend to be in the matrix, googled "matrix screen saver". Followed the instructions and boom, I was done. I was little skeptical at first as I was reading a few comments that mentioned they were unsuccessful and faced some wrong turns. I am not a computer expert, but this has to be the easiest setup ever. I also have a couple of malware and virus protection software and did not detect any foul play.
Great! Works as intended! Downloaded to my Downloads folder at first, and then the Readme says to just place it in the windows directory. So I did, went to my screensaver settings, and it pops up right in the dropdown menu! The options are perfectly simple to mess with, and it looks legit! Matches my faux matrix rain idle colors on my SteelSeries keyboard. Thanks for the simple, and easy/user-friendly work!
Terrible, you have to hack the matrix to get it to work. Needles to say it does not work unless you do several things to your files, and if you can follow the steps provided that are entirely inaccurate and unhelpful. You can't just download and select in settings. An install sequence of a path of installation would be greatly beneficial.
I'm running a 38 inch curve at 4k resolution and this looks so damn good and the fact that there are settings for this screensaver makes this much more than just a plain screensaver. Easy to copy into the windows system32 folder and works like charm! Thank you
Something is "weird" with it, as after installation and tweaking to get it as i wanted it, all seemed fine. Though after reboot it's gone, the file itself is gone (except the downloadzip that i saved elsewhere) and the screensavers are off (got a different set than i had before, and no the matrix one isn't one of them, it seems like the old standard ones, though I deleted the windows ones which now have returned and ones that i could use before have disappeared).
I doubt it's a blackhat (114.5k dl's) and IF it is, the guy/gal is in for a suprise, was deemed a soft target at some point ages ago, had TAO in my network since (one of the "happy few" who got a SIGNINT msg). So if you're out there and this is malware of any sort - gl and i hope you make it out (note, not sarcasm).
i love this screen saver it is so cool because it's just like the movie that i have on dvd and it is so cool i love the way that it move's on my laptop computer thank you for showing me this screen saver i love it alot.
Has worked well and as advertised on all of my PC's (8) at the moment. I like being able to add your own message like but the words seem to come in random order. I wish you could have it appear in the order written. Simple to install if you take the time to read the directions and follow them.
I Really Like This Screen Saver It looks Really Cool & its Hard to Find a Good Screen Saver That Works Good With my monitor set up as i Run a 3+1 Monitors a 5760X1080 in nvidia surround for all my flight & Race Sims & a 1440p@144Hz For Every Thing Else all are 27' Panels & Like i said its a pain to find a good one that works & looks as good as this one and it Even let me add in the text The Matrix Has You or Follow The White Rabbit &again it looks really cool ..but then again im a bit of a matrix fanboy..lol.! I Just Want to say a Big Thank You to Who Ever Worked on this i think ya did a Great Job & Thanks Again !
Looks great - reminds me of the first movie. Simple and no nonsense. Runs great on Windows 10, HP I5 laptop bought a week ago. Thank you for providing this awesome software for free. Neo would have wanted it that way.
This Matrix screensaver is only 90k and runs efficiently. It has a good selection of settings. I copied the matrix.scr file to my C:\Windows\SysWOW64 folder and it runs fine in Windows 10 64-bit. Multiple monitors are supported. This is a good choice.
This is an awesome screensaver. It's free, has support for multiple monitors and has a wide range of settings to change, including text color and font. I recommend this screensaver for those looking for a good matrix screensaver that has multi monitor support. Thumbs up from me!
If you need to bring back the Matrix theme on your desktop and your display resolution is higher than the screen saver maximum, we recommend to search for another solution.ĬURRENT VERSION: 1.0 FILE SIZE: 1 MB DEVELOPER: RUNS ON: Windows All CATEGORY: C: \ Desktop Enhancements \ Screensavers Furthermore, it changed the screen resolution which rearranged all the windows and the shortcuts. Still, the flow of the characters was far from smooth and the sound quality was poor.
In order to change the classic aspect of the falling code or the photos you can change the colors that are visible on the screensaver. Unfortunately, the maximum resolution is 1280 x 1024 which might be too small for some displays. You can set the screen resolution and the color depth from the Preferences window. The screensaver uses the openGL technology and can be fine-tuned to suit your display properties.
The installation includes music from the movie and can help you recall some of the scenes from the trilogy. If you want a complete Matrix experience, you have the option to enable the sound effects played during the animation. During the animation, the screensaver includes images from the movie and enables you to remember Neo, Trinity, Agent Smith and other favorite characters. The main feature of the screensaver is the falling code animation that is characteristic to all the Matrix movies. It is designed for the Matrix fans but can also be used by anyone that wants to change the aspect of their desktop. Matrix Reloaded Screensaver allows you to personalize your desktop with images and animations from the Matrix movie trilogy. Matrix Reloaded Screensaver is a freeware openGL matrix screen saver that truly captivates the spirit of The Matrix movie Описание Matrix Reloaded Screensaver Download specifications
If you download a .zip and then unzip and install the program can you safely delete the .zip file from a "downloads" folder? For instance I have a matrix.zip from a matrix screensaver 213 kb im my "downloads" folder. Another similar question: Can I delete a staging file froma Kodak Digital camera that seems to have gone automatically to my Recycle Bin after I installed the Kodak Software?
Your first question: yes, it is safe to delete such zip files, if you are certain that you will never need them (e.g., if the installed program should become corrupted. I have created a special folder (called Archives) where I keep all such files, in case I ever need them again.
As to the second questions, programs that are being installed often create a set of temporary files during the installation process which are deleted after installation is complete. They do not usually go to the recycle bin, But, it is in all probability safe to empty the recycle bin (with the file in it) since the file cannot be used by the program while in the recycle bin anyway.
Generally, if I download a program, update, etc, I keep the zip file or whatever download file there is, in case it needs to be reinstalled again. Periodically, I back up my "download" folder to a CD-R and "clean out" my Download folder, but that's all. However, if you want to delete the zip file it's not a problem, you can always download it again if you have a problem with that particular program/file (if it's still available).
Again, generally, I don't delete files from the recycle bin. I let Windows manage that, and a couple of times I needed to restore a file that was deleted (either by a program or by me) because of a problem. If I had kept the recycle bin empty I would have been "Sorry Out of Luck". I'm not sure if System Restore uses files from the recycle bin or not (I tend to lean towards it doesn't) but that is another issue, if you ever have to use System Restore.
