UPGRADE YOUR VIDEO DRIVERS

No matter what version of Windows you are using it is recommended that you make sure you are using the latest drivers for your video card. If you have any problems (slow, jerky, crashing, freezing) they can almost always be fixed by simply replacing your outdated drivers.

The latest drivers for your card are available from the manufacturers website. They are always working on upgrading the drivers, so make sure you upgrade them!

Some common manufacturers websites are:
ATI
Matrox
nVidia
PowerVR


DESCRIPTION (WHAT'S IT DO?)

Kids on their way home from trick or treating decide to take a shortcut through the Spookyville Cemetery. But the ghosts who dwell within have been without candy for far too long, and have decided to steal it from any kid who comes their way.

This fun 3D screen saver is like none you have seen before. The kids run from the ghosts in a fully 3D cemetery, and there are heaps of different costumes for them to wear including Harry Potter, Spiderman, Yoda, and Halloween favourites like Pirates, Skeletons and Witches, and heaps more!

There's also a countdown to Halloween, and watch out for Bats flying around overhead!


USELESS RELEASE NOTES (v2.0)

I decided it was time to spruce this one up a bit and re-release it for the new Halloween.

When I first started working on it way back when, I always wanted to have flocks of bats flying around overhead, but I ran out of time. So the first thing I've added is flocks of bats flying around overhead. I decided to only put one camera angle in that actually watches the bats, so most of the time you'll just see them in the background. I think they look cool this way, especially if you see them silhouetted against the full moon.

I've added a specific Halloween countdown too. So if you turn off the UC3D countdown (it's now off by default) and turn this one on it will always count down to October 31st of this year. That way you don't have to keep changing it each year.

And, ofcourse, I've added a couple of new costumes and fixed all the bugs that I could find.

This is a shareware screen saver. But it's only US$9.95 to register and get rid of all the nag screens (which I know aren't as annoying as a lot of other shareware screen savers around, but I still hope you'll like it enough to pay, rather than be annoyed enough to pay).

You can register online and get the full version almost instantly by going to:

You can also register UC3D and get this, and all other UC3D screen saver for the one low price. For more info on UC3D go to:

I've done my best to make sure this is bug free, but if you spot any bugs please let me know.

Enjoy!


USELESS RELEASE NOTES (v1.1)

Wow. I'm in shock as to how popular this screen saver has become. It was mentioned on MSN.com over the weekend and had over 140,000 downloads! Sure, not even 0.002% of those actually registered, but the feedback I've received is all good, so at least people are enjoying it, even if it's just the free version.

The only negative feedback I've had is that I mis-spelled "cemetery", and that it doesn't have sound. So I've fixed the spelling mistake and I've added a selection of spooky background music.

Enjoy!


USELESS RELEASE NOTES (v1.0)

After doing A Very 3D Christmas and An Eggstremely 3D Easter, I started getting requests for screen savers based on other popular holiday type events. So I had a look around at the different Halloween screen savers available, and I wasn't all that impressied.

There are some good ones, but a lot for all very similar with simple ghosts floating around the screen and stuff like that. I didn't find any 3D ones, and I didn't find any that were close to as cheap as I sell mine for (am I charging too little for these things??)

So I decided I'd try and do a good, original, 3D Halloween screen saver. The idea is that the kids are on their way home and take a shortcut through a graveyard, the ghosts happen to be a little more active than usual on this night tho, and emerge from their graves to chase the kids and steal their candy. I haven't seen anything like this before, so I'm hoping you all enjoy it.

This was great fun to make. I had a ball making all the different costumes for the kids to wear and all that. I didn't get to include everything I wanted, so maybe I'll do an update next year when I have more time. Ofcourse if you register now, you will be more than welcome to free updates to this screen saver.

This is a shareware screen saver. But it's only US$9.95 to register and get rid of all the nag screens (which I know aren't as annoying as a lot of other shareware screen savers around, but I still hope you'll like it enough to pay, rather than be annoyed enough to pay).
