You’ll see our first human-like avatar (we called him “primitar”). Previous versions had used spaceships and flaming eyeballs as avatars. This was one of the first builds that allowed user-created objects. Of course, there was no inventory to put them in, and any other user could modify them. Remnants of our previous ecosystem are here, including rocks, birds, “ators” (snake-like creatures), rain and deformable water.

So, the our real daddy was primitar. All hail PRIMITAR!

I'd love to see that video, Torley, but the link isn't working for me.

[EDIT] Apparently my employer's network firewall was in the way. My home system can see the film, though I have to download the whole thing to view it, as it streams too slowly. [/EDIT]

Na, just helping those with blogophobia xD.

Some things we had then we now dont

1. Good combat system, with energy bar and working guns.
2. Land scaping through bombs!
3. Better physics, including prims that break into pieces.
4. Water that reacts to physics, drop a few bombs and bang! big wave.
5. Ecosystem, snakes eating birds, birds living on trees, trees feeding on rocks (gotta watch to see this).
6. Weather, including rain and so on.
7. Prims that load texture.
