The Matrix Trilogy 3D Code Screensaver is an interesting 3D screensaver inspired by the Matrix movies.
Once the application is installed, you can access it from the Windows screensaver settings.
Here you can preview it, apply it, or change its settings.
The Settings interface is poorly drawn but straightforward. The text and background have bright colors, and the first reaction of the experienced user would be to immediately exit.
You can have several modules from the same developer simultaneously installed, and you can set them to randomly appear, at a regular time interval.
Additionally, you can set CPU priority (low, below normal, or normal), enable the screensaver to be displayed only on the primary monitor, show countdown with an inputted coundown message (as well as countdown date), and select countdown color.
If you access the module's settings, you are able to display a clock (in 12 hour mode or otherwise) and adjust its size, enable 2D mode (with optional 2D shaded lines) or 3D mode (with optional 3D code rotations), enable mouse controlled rotations, or use the desktop as background.
Furthermore, you can adjust the glyph size, line density, fall speed, forward and back speed, picture delay, and picture scale, as well as configure normal, highlight and background color.
Plus, you can select sound effects (which we don't recommend) or music (a poorly developed digital version of the song played at the end of the first Matrix).
The screensaver itself moves slowly on our computers. Also, the developer's logo is continuously displayed on the lower right corner of the screen.
Nevertheless, we have to appreciate the fact that this screensaver can be customized in many ways, and that system memory is minimally used.
All in all, The Matrix Trilogy 3D Code Screensaver has a very nice concept behind it, but we're afraid it may not work perfectly even on newer computer systems. But it's free to try!
