Does anyone recognize the warp effect in this video?

As the title says, does anyone know what OXP/OXZ was used to give this warp effect?

I asked the video author but he says he doesn't remember. Part of it is similar to the effect in BGS 2.5.1, but theres an extra bit at the start. I was going to download some of the earlier versions of BGS and try them myself to see if it was in an older version, but none of them will download from the Box account. It shows me the file size and says the file is downloading, but never ever happens.

It probably comes from the previous version of BGS: BGS-A_1.10.9.oxz

Thanks for the file. Unfortunately, I can't make it work in 1.88 and I don't see a download for 1.77. There's a 1.77.1, but I don't really want to install it just to try this out.

I was kind of hoping that the internal files would be similar enough to 2.5.1 that I could just swap them to get the older effect. Oh well...

It should work fine in 1.77.1, or in 1.80 or 1.82. I think any of those versions should be OK.

Gotta love Svengali's hyperspace effects! Song of the Labyrinth also has pretty hyperspace effects - but remember to stay on course!
