Hmm, the beta holder says that Necris were developed only when UT started, not earlier, and that there are no additional Necris skins in Unreal betas...

Ok, some news. He talked with both DE and Epic. There are some legal issues still left to solve, but so far everything seems to be moving well. Though don't expect the release too early, will have to wait at least a few months.

At least we won't have to worry about files being removed later on if they're released the legal way. Hopefully it works out for the best. :)

Yeah, I actually contacted DE about it before, as I said in oldunreal thread.

I just pointed out that it isn't as soon as it expected and that it shouldn't have been posted in that way perhaps, to give that impression.

What I really want to see it's the Gargoyle. Then, it was probably the winged creature shown in the Crypt package.

How many creatures did Epic cut from the final version, and what were they? The only one I knew of before this topic was the dragon.

The wikipedia articles about Unreal series are horrible and dellusional at best btw...it mentions thing as Bastard Sword and that it is used in some Assault maps, which is complete bull****. Bastard Sword, Crossbow and prox mines and claw etc were mentioned in utgoty manual, as part of chaosut goty weapons...
or that about Unreal2 being possibly a prequel, wth...

There were several creatures cut from game which we know of, that is Hawk, Chameleon, Gargoyle, Dragon, some other creatures which transformed eventually into krall etc.

Thanks for the info. It's a shame Epic didn't at least put them in like the squid.

The Minotaurs (a.k.a. the precedessor of the Krall before the change) were supposed to be like the UT3 Krall.

The oldunreal people have put hawk back in the unofficial 227f patch (although the new code they used makes it animation kinda weird, it should have been more properly animated within the code) and chameleon (with code from the leaked beta, mostly unchanged, just like that earlier conversion by me), they said they got the models from the original Unreal source code, so if it is true it was supposed to be there still, unused.
But the models suffer from certain lighting bugs which suggest that it is as if they were exported through some tool like UTPT, which looks worse than my chameleon, but about the same as the UT one.

Wow, that's interesting. I wish they weren't called Krall in UT3. I think they would have been slightly more interesting as a new race. :hmm:

Cool, I'll have a look at those beasties. And where could I get your version of the chameleon?

To GreatEmerald: Have there been any updates?

Leo(T.C.K.) is wrong.

You are wrong, you came too late, when I posted my post I was right, this is irrelevant, plus we got here little confusion with timezones I guess.
