Beta 1 Screenshots

Aye that interface, and the group window lol, But I did like the old font, course it was counter productive when lots was going on

Glad to see this post! I was just thinking about how the old face models seemed superior to the more simplified versions they added in later. Don't suppose any of those old models still exist in the code somewhere?

Wow, those screens are actually super useful for anyone wanting to actually rebuild that UI. When I made the Photoshop reconstruction I only had a couple older official screenshots to work with. Do you have any with the question log or other UI elements open?

Sadly, no. I looked through all I have from early beta, and more often than not I had the UI completely hidden. I was so amazed by the beauty of the world that I wanted the UI gone when taking screenshots. Most screenshots with the UI visible were taken during combat, and had no extra windows open.

I'm missing a lot of screenshots from late beta and early launch. Some time in late 2007 I installed a boot SSD and Raptor X for my programs, then wiped my old HDD and transfered all my media to it. I didn't think to go digging for screenshots first, and a few days later realized what I had done. I still cringe over that.

Anything from the release editions might be transferrable as far as art assets go. Might be possible to do a skin/model pack without it interfering with the client any since the asset checker seems to be gone.

Hah, it's nice to see somebody else hoarding pictures of early development. I kept some videos for years and never really showed anyone, but it was taken in alpha a couple months before beta 1 so you'll see the same ui. The game ran terrible on my old comp at the time, it often crashed running fraps so I rarely ran fraps. I literally got in the game and pressed record not knowing how rough it would run so this first video didn't last but I always loved that song to pieces. http://youtu.be/NBIXxr6pPbw and then this was recorded a few hours later. http://youtu.be/0VoqPU9daio

beta 2.5 http://youtu.be/WOh4oIUqXGY made for my guildmates

I think it gives Telon a certain Charm, even the World itself seeks to end you

And I think someone mentioned tons of stuff is client side, so it should deff be doable to recreate it

Vanguard early beta was the most fun I ever had in the game. It was what I was hoping for in a spiritual successor to Everquest. I wish they could have stuck to their original vision, it would have been really interesting to see how it turned out. In any case, I stumbled on this thread, decide to register and make a contribution.
