aLPHA Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Lair and I were crawling over the web archives and we actually found the site. Unfortunately we can't access it because it needs flash player 7 or older. Tomorrow I have the day off and I might work on it if my brother doesn't pull me into terraria xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrcoder Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Even better. We talk to the developer who joined this site....if he even logs on anymore. He hasn't appeared since March 16 I have been pretty busy lately, so I haven't posted anything for some time. I do still stop by and check on things occasionally, however I haven't been signed in for quite some time so that would explain the March 16th date I thought I should probably sign in today to catch up on a few peoples questions :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rrcoder Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I remember, years upon years ago, for a brief time LEGO had a different version of the Rock Raiders intro on their official site. The music was different, and it had a few extra scenes that didn't make it into the retail version (The energy crystals powering the LMS Explorer being drained, Sparks trying more buttons to fix the gravity, and an extended scene with Docs and Jet in the elevator, getting the hover scout and hammer, with Jet almost running Docs over with it.) I've looked, and i've never been able to find it again. Has anyone else seen this? There were actually quite a few revisions of the video and promo screenshots, each requiring approval by LEGO. Some were used prior to final editing (hence the few snippets of previously unseen video). Same goes with some of the images used in magazine adverts. LEGO required images from us before the game design was finalized, so earlier ideas (such as different coloured crystals) made it into some of the print ads. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addictgamer Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Thanks for sharing that! Some parts are so much better made in the final video. I see work was put in. However, some of these parts should have been kept. Lol, the raiders had energy crystals prior to Planet U. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow322 Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 I'm really glad I got to see this, they did put a lot of time into it, and at point it felt like I was watching something from LEGO Star Wars or another newer game. But it just feel like theres something missing, this is too quite, the game version have grunts and stuff when they spoke, and speaking of LEGO Star Wars, all the newer games have also had grunts and stuff, so you know what we must do, we need to find a way to add more sound effects from the game version into this extended version, and then after that find a way to replace the version in the game with this version. Because this could quite possible be the greatest thing we have ever found. I think Cyrem should make a new award for yBrik because he found this.

McJobless Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 This is amazing. 6 minutes long? No wonder we see a different one; LEGO must have deemed it too long and thus would have not kept childrens minds long enough. Also, I like it without the music, as it show how much effort *cough* the sound guys went to... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cirevam Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 This is really cool. I also noticed that some of the sounds in the extended intro are unused sounds found in LRR's files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oboe Shoes Posted July 14, 2011 Author Share Posted July 14, 2011 Excellent! I had a feeling if it was ever going to be found it'd be on one of those old LEGO media demo discs. This is definately the version I saw way back when, I remember that there weren't any voices yet now, but i thought I remembered there being a little music, but I'm not sure. (It's possible I'm just mistaken, or maybe LEGO added their own music on top of it for show.) Either way, thanks a million for sharing it with us. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lol username Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Ladies and gentlemen, I have it The video came on a :EGO Software disc behind the game disc of LEGO Island 1 May I present the extended video Now that is awesome. Could you possibly upload an ISO of the entire disc? I'm trying to get as many of those as I can, I've got one from my own copy of LI2, two other ones from bartvbl, but not this one. Actually, could you upload a picture of the disc so I can see what it looks like? Thanks for sharing that! Some parts are so much better made in the final video. I see work was put in. However, some of these parts should have been kept. Lol, the raiders had energy crystals prior to Planet U. Not too surprising, there's ECs on Earth, Ogel Island, and Mars as well.

joellucas Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 can you change this into the intro of RR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McJobless Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 can you change this into the intro of RR? Yes. You can also change the LEGO copyright movie (and you will have to if you plan on releasing a massive overhaul like Time Raiders, I assume), the DDI image, the intro movie and then I think you can also add another picture and movie to the launch line-up.

joellucas Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 how do you add it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McJobless Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 (edited) how do you add it? Add what?DISREGARD THIS Once you download the video from Youtube (use SaveYoutube or something like it), you're gonna have to save the video as either an AVI or a WMV file. If you don't have a good video editor, Windows Movie Maker might be your only option unless you find a file converter. Then you can replace the intro video by putting it in your AVI folder and either naming it intro.avi or naming it whatever you want and changing the RRavi line in the CFG. I expect you to read this closely and don't ask a billion questions like "where do i find saveyoutube?" or "how do i open the CFG?". This is the internet. Use Google and use the search bar on this forum. Making lots of little "i don't know what to do" posts will just make you look bad because, as a human being, you're expected to have some sort of autonomy. Edited December 28, 2011 by Cirevam Don't waste posts saying stuff like "Add what?" It's pretty obvious what he wanted to do given your previous post.

McJobless Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 how do you add it? Add what? the extended intro *sigh* Please try to pay attention and get this right the first time, because this is a very simple process and I would rather not have to go through it all. Simply have the extended intro on your computer. Convert it to either .wmv or .avi format (for .avi, make sure it's in a codec which Windows Media Player can read), and then save it in your "Lego Rock RaidersDataAVI" folder. Name it "intro". It should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drill Master Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I had no idea there was an extended intro until I found this topic. I have to say the extended is much more descriptive of what was going on. I am just in awe right now. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
