I'm jealous. That picture of the krall looks identical to the model in that pack of old models you found. Wish it had the skin.

 

[Leo(T.C.K.)]

Yeah maybe it's the first skin made for Krall, it looks pretty high res too too bad the photo ruins it by blurrying it like that, on the preview it looked fine though, I thought it would be as clear as the poster shot. There was a first ever Krall promo in 96-97 PC Games magazine issue, mabe that was the promo shot actually.

 

[UBerserker]

How many Krall skins were made? I count the retail ones, the 98 beta ones, those brown-ish ones shown in some Soledad shots, the 97 alpha skin (which I think it's the same one used for those Krall in an old trailer who also had different soundbites).
Also it is true that there was going to be a full Queen section? That QueenEND file name makes me think of that

I don't know anything about beta QueenEnd at all.

So no it isn't the alpha skin, the alpha skin was never featured in any screenshots.

There's also this variant of this skin for what I guess are krall lords featured in chizra:

So all in all, at least 6 main variants of the krall skins existed if not more.

This is the classic late 97 one(like in the trailer), but more clearer:

Also a proof that Ceremonial chambers was once just a deathmatch level (in the early days I used to add bos and summon weapons through the level and it just played like DM):

This image marks the first time the Unreal team could play deathmatch against each other, shortly after moving to Canada.

I also wonder what ws this map:

has mine like theme but it isn't rrajigar and the flak cannon appearance is weird too.

 

[UBerserker]

Yeah I thought it was one of the dropped mine sections
What was the deal with the coloured bars in the hud?

 

[AlCapowned]

To me it looks like there's a bar for health, shields, stamina, and maybe whatever was needed to transform into monsters.

 

[Leo(T.C.K.)]

No, that is completely false. It is health, armor, ammo, and charge. No frigging stamina bullshit or change into monsters, change into monsters was from the transformation stations and those were dropped already in the late 97 version. Attaching the graphics that were found in some of the stuff I got. That should serve as proof that those bars were used for that (see the names of that).

 

[AlCapowned]

I didn't say that's what it was, I said that's what it looked like to me. Sheesh. I was thinking there MIGHT have been a stamina system because the description for the stim pack says "The player also wont get tired when running while this lasts."

I didn't mean that personally, but I have seen this mentioned quite few times by various people, the theory about these bars being something to transfer to monsters. So it's good to dissolve such myths sometimes.
There might have been pseudo stamina system in 96-early 97 stuff, after all there is a run key in the 95 demo even. But this was definately not it.

What is "charge" related to? Items or shield belt?

Items it would appear. That kind of charge.
