I just found this picture in my RA2 UI

I also found sample bot but it was only a picture of what the "No robot preview" could have looked like.

Huh, that's quite a cool find there

Why so purpley?

A few pics in the UI are unused, same for some sounds.

I just found this awesome spinmotor preview.

That looks cool, makes me think of a high powered red bird perhaps.

Probabley was an idea for the redbirds. Maybe Infogrames had to quickly release it, not giving the creators enough time to finish some parts (Like the 140cm extender)

*Goes to make high-powered redbird*

I saw some of these but thought that people already knew about them.

Yep, that seems the popular theory.

Still, if this game was unfinished, imagine what it might be like if it had been properly finnished

I think it was DSL that properly finished it.

I couldn't help myself:

Anyway, nice finds. I wonder why the rushed this game so much...

those first 2 images are crash preventions

the arena one is the default image that will show if no arenas are loaded into the game (in other words, delete the contents of your arena folder and it will show) notice it has Saws in that picture too..

the no robot preview is used for those that dont have preview pictures taken and loaded into exhibition if I am not mistaken

finally that component was most likely one that was never exported from 3DSM (since is a 3DSM screenshot)

Could you post a pic?

Scorpion · « **Reply #12 on:** December 22, 2010, 04:24:54 PM »

I presume this is what he was talking about

I'm gonna have a look and see if I find anything else, this kinda thing interests me for some reason...

MassimoV · « **Reply #13 on:** December 22, 2010, 04:28:23 PM »

That's actually better than the one in stock right now!

Enigm@ · « **Reply #14 on:** December 22, 2010, 04:31:13 PM »

Cool.

Scorpion · « **Reply #15 on:** December 22, 2010, 04:35:52 PM »

I know, I like it better too.
Here's something els I just found, I imagine this was another unfinished thing but then it was finished in DSL as this file has been replaced with the "custom free style" mode button, i'm sure somebody with more knowledge will spread some light on it soon for me...

I would love to see a robot arena 2 beta. We gotta contact gabriel and see if they at least have some pics to share.

Scorpion · « **Reply #17 on:** December 22, 2010, 04:46:42 PM »

Well there's a demo on here for download, never looked at it actually, but I may download it in a sec.

And I wouldn't bother contacting them, by the sounds of things they can't be arsed to capitalize on their only succesfull game
