[Request] Roblox's Setup.exe from 2006/2007

[iBetaTosh]

Im trying to do a favor for our 06/07 fans back at roblox by trying to get back setup.exe from 2006/2007 with Wayback Archive, however, the archived pages think I already installed roblox, so I am going to get all the help I need from betaarchive to see if they can grab a copy of Roblox's setup.exe from 2006/2007 from their old hard drives/backups.

Any hope is pleasured,
Regards, iBetaTosh

EDIT: We have one of these executables!!! YAY!

Oh, ROBLOX. What was a fun concept for a sandbox game now ruined by whiny bratty children, prepubescent tweens and moderators that wish the Off Topic forum there never existed. The only thing it has going for now is the Lua 5.1 programming language built in that the community thinks you "must master" but really you need to learn.

Then again, if it wasn't for ROBLOX, I wouldn't have met some friends like FoobyZeeky.

My friend wagn has it somewhere, I think. But BetaArchive isn't really the place for Roblox players (really, the only people who play[ed] it [we/a]re you, me and FoobyZeeky)

I'll let you know.

This isn't something easy to find, because ROBLOX uses a setup executable that downloads the latest files from the Internet, and checks for updates automatically on startup. Therefore, to get an old version of the game you would have to have a copy of all the program files, and a somehow cracked executable that doesn't check for updates on startup.

Actually ROBLOX didn't use the auto-updater until somewhat 2008.

Here, iBetaTosh. It was still lying in ROBLOX's servers, but I decided to upload it to my own site so we don't lose it.

Thank you XP! Now the recreating will be stopped and robloxians throughout the future will share this executable! If it had not been for BA, it would have been "bye bye memory"!

To celebrate, I am going to post a video on youtube!

Thanks for spreading, hopefully everyone will find it useful.

One thing though, your Internet connection doesn't need to be switched off to run the old ROBLOX. For starters, this was before auto-update became a feature, and I've had no problems with my Internet connections on (Windows 8 Consumer Preview and Windows Vista Home Premium, although XP and 7 will work.). Again, hopefully any ROBLOX player will find it useful.

One problem. I cant access "Test Solo" mode on the rbxl's. They give me an internet error! LUL! It is because were not in 2007 and everything has improved since. That is why I am going to a publish a model which is actually a player so you can play while in edit mode 2012 and 2007 versions will both be published if the one I developed first only works with ROBLOX in 2012.

The link is dead. Thankfully I have it archived. I will upload the link to it on Wednesday.
Also, Report abuse Smiley is in the BetaArchive Smilies:

So, why can't I use this? What exactly do we need to do to play old ROBLOX with this updater?

Thanks. X10Hosting removed my whole website with no reasoning.

It will be installed seperately as opposed to the current, auto-updating builds of ROBLOX.
