The GTA V beta hunt

[PowerKracker]

Edit #1:

 

Here are some shots of Liberty City Either Running on GTA V's Engine On steroids, a GTA IV ENB or just Graphics upgrade from R*:

 

Images Were taken from "mov_meltdown.bik"

Most likely made in GTA IV, on PC. All those in-game machinimas featuring Liberty City have cars looking like they did in IV, with the LC license plates and all, while having other IV assets as well.

Here is another thing I found It looks like either a Beta Los Santos or Low LOD. Proably beta.

Also notice it uses those same GTA IV shaders from the traffic I posted Earlier.

Do you need jailbroken console to access these game files?

[WildBrick142]

Nope.

[Amistrulez]

Well how do you access them then?

[Delta India Echo]

Nope, you can pretty much get almost everything on se7ensins

 

Doesn't seem to be all the files though, and there's no vehicle model files either.

 

Just get the files you want, make a new folder and add this file http://openiv.com/WebIV/guest.php?get=1 and rename it to encryption_key.bin.

545408A700000001 (part1.rpf) has them.

It's not in that link tho.

 

There's a handful of missing files there too.

545408A700000001 is a package file holding part1.rpf. Use wxpirs to extract part1.rpf from it. Then in OpenIV go to levels/gta5 and "vehicles.rpf" will be there.

Jackpot, luckily some bro exported it already to save the trouble of waiting 2 hours.

Wow, thanks for this one, I wanted those files too. These files are downloading slower than unupgraded Faggio going uphill, so at least there's the convenience, 195 MB is much better than 2 GB with that speed.

There's an Elegy2 (2007 GT-R) but no Elegy1 (or simply Elegy)?

 

Interesting...

 

EDIT:

Same case with the Issi

 

 

EDIT2 (irony):

 

 

Could have been either:

 

or

 

 

Oh yeah, and the Voodo is also 2, so there was indeed a clean version in the beta.

This was talked about some pages ago. Definitely suspicious on R*'s part with taxi2, voodoo2, etc. - probably the only one that doesn't mean anything is schafter2, as that was just ported from TBoGT, so they didn't necessarily have the intention of bringing the old one back.

Hey guys, Any way I can open ".xcd" Files? I would love to start checking animations after I finish Digging through the .bik files.

[henry_™]

Found this:

As you can see, the landscape looks completely different with Heavy Vegetation.

The road is also different

If next gen does look like that i'm definitely going to purchase it for Xbox One or PS4 depending of what version is the best

[StJimmy]

 

Wait, in one of the commercials isn't there a shot of a metal factory?

 

Where do you see a metal factory?

 

One of the campaign videos? ...no wait.... sh*t... I think a car commercial... I honestly forget.

Do you mean this?

 

 

 

It's actually the steel mill from Ending C.

Hey guys this is my final .bik findings dump here on The Beta Hunt.

I've found a lot and this one will be long first are my captures from "cnt_mt_zonah.bik"

 

In shot 1 you can see the shaders are incredibly outdated and are proably from the earlier days of GTA IV shaders.

In shot 2 you can see the shaders are improved (Next-Gen maybe?)

In shot 3 you can see more simple shaders used inside the hospital (Notice the lack of shadows and ambient occlusion effects.)

In shot 4 you can see a very realistic shader used. Which could be either Next-Gen or just because there are After effects from video editing.

 

The Next image was captured from "wzl_pwasser.bik"

 

HORSES!!!!!

If you looked at my last posts, you can see a clear resemblance between this and the shot from "wzl_surano.bik" you can see there is a increase in vegetation this could be a beta state of the game or Next-Gen.

 

Finally the best one. This next image was captured from "wzl_fos_ep1.bik"

 

This no doubt is a clear shot of Los Santos running full, 100% GTA IV Shaders/Graphics. Definitely recorded from early beta stage.

 

Enjoy everyone!

If you already got GTA V setup in OpenIV then you should be able to find them in

GTA V/xbox360b.rpf/movies/

Bottom left corner. There was a two-door version of the Bravado Bison in the beta?

I don't really see much difference, it could be two door but the angle and the blurry photo make it hard to tell. It does look a little shorter though, but then again, angle maybe?
