I'm downloading this now. I'll check back when its finished.

EDIT: It's real. Password info is in the UnPass.ini file. The logfile says this build was compiled on Feb 6 1998.

lol, it gives me an "Unexpected error" dialog when I tried to run on slimmed down WinXP SP3... anybody got it working?

Maybe you shouldn't be using a 'slimmed' version of Windows. Who knows what got removed that you might need?

Hm, I noticed that this beta is the exact same I've had on my server for years

. I also have a beta from 1995 for those of you that are interested... It's all available on my public server.

SLAYERMAGGOT · **Post subject:** **Posted:** Sat Nov 15, 2008 11:10 pm

Nice Upp!

I searched for this Beta for months and don't found it and now i joined BETAArchive.co.uk
I'll give this Beta a try on my XP

It's not on his site, it's on his private server. You need to get 10 contributing posts to get to the servers

Just making sure that you know:
It's 10 contributing posts, meaning sharing any betas you have with us.
It doesn't mean post 10 times.

Doesn't have to be just shared betas. Any post that is meaningful and helps the forum ahead is a contributing one. I.e just generally following the rules and being active in a proper way. But SLAYERMAGGOT has still a bit to go before his 10 contributing posts are counted. You'll get there eventually.

Is there a way to get Glide graphics acceleration working in this version?

I have tried several Glide wrappers but not a single one seems to work propery with this game....

did anyone succeed?

Yes I did, you need to change the config file first, although on some machines it will never work. Change the renderdevices where needed to:
GlideDrv.GlideRenderDevice

I never got it to work on this laptop though, on my older PC I got it working well with glidewrapper.
Btw it is a whole new experience on the glidewrapper, on sioftware you cannot enable coronas and high detail effects, it really is cool on glide, there are also rocket lens flares and stuff which was not even in final game.

thedoctor45 · **Post subject:** Re: Unreal Beta (2-6-98) **Posted:** Tue Jan 11, 2011 2:16 am

which Glide wrapper did you use?

I didn't have much luck with dgVoodoo and nGlide didn't want to work either.

This one worked for me:
