Grand Theft Auto III Pre-Release Discussion

[Inadequate 3,460]

 

According to this old picture, there is also Linerunner and a red sport car.

 

oh yeah me and sergi are all over finding those cars on the site, the album posted in the GTA3D topic has some crops I did (as well as all the original file names):

didn't post them here because they're not very good pictures for the OP

 

 

The red one, looks like a Ferrari Testarossa. Probably beta Cheetah?

Well, then an unknown sport car.

[unopieceo 1,284]

Wow I thought the days of gta3 discoverys were long gone. I really like the apc you can see the turret is the same as the rhino they must have slowly deformed it into the tank which explains why the rhino is so weirdly shaped with doors and those big covers to hide the wheels

That's not an unknown vehicle. It was the Beta Infernus, also called Dyablo which was supposed to be a Diablos Gang vehicle around Hepburn Heights.

it's not, it's a different car entirely. check the album I posted, the dyablo is actually on the capital autos site in full resolution

This is the Diablos version of the vehicle. I remember seeing it somewhere. Just can't figure out exactly where it was. Stallion wasn't the original vehicle, Dyablo was. This was a different version.

that came from king courtney saying "diablo infernus" in the briefing for gangcar round-up, there's no pictures that would confirm its appearance though and I don't think it was mentioned anywhere pre-release

 

edit: and it'd be the only gang car shown on the capital autos site with the others being civilian varients, which is strange

There can be the only possiblity of it either being the Diablo Infernus or just another cut sports vehicle, considering that there isn't any other lead. It was never mentioned, but posted in some beta screens I've come across earlier.

[Sergiu 4,897]

My theory is simple. We know for a fact that the alpha Rocket was fully based on a Testarossa.
We also know that the front was a lot different based on the Gouranga screenshots (but we weren't able to remake it fully - just a guess). Based on the car's body and blocky shape of the front - I'd say it's an older render of the Rocket.

The only problem is what the code name could possibly be OR if it wasn't replaced by the later render.

I'd be somewhat pissed if it was replaced

[Sergiu 4,897]

True. The real question is who wouldn't be?

Well, there's still hope we can find the two cars - Linerunner and supposed early Rocket.

[super_slav 51]

Rockstar names allot of their beta car for gta 3 with names of cars from GTA 2, maybe trying those names will result in something.

 

Edit: I just tried that, didnt work.

Edited May 9, 2015 by super_slav

[Sergiu 4,897]

Some of us tried that 3 times if not more.

[Gamerjman19 1,018]

I did it myself. All vehicles from GTA1, GTA2, GTA London '61, and GTA London '69. Even slight variations of some names.

Best possiblity I think, for a fact it seems well that Rocket was a version of Testarossa, if not based on it. Lots of GTA Vehicles, even the GTA V Version of Cheetah is based on Ferrari Enzo. I think they would have had same names for an alpha version. That vehicle in the above pic, more of seems like a variation of either Dyablo or Rocket.

[universetwisters 31,470]

Did you try "Juggernaut" or whatever the truck from GTA 1 was?

 

 

E. That don't work.

Someone could probably code a program to search for pictures by brute force no? (This is far beyond my capabilites)

Already on it. It's running on one of my computers, but it's painfully slow due to the fact that it has to make an new HTTP connection with each iteration. Nothing new so far. I'll post anything I find.

[unopieceo 1,284]

Excellent

 

 

 

It needs to take capital letters into account BTW

It does. I've got it doing lowercase [a-z], capitals [A-Z], and numbers [0-9].

[WorthlessYouth 201]

Wow, this is interesting

 

A user earlier implied there was a 'chat' for this sort of stuff. Is this some kind of Skype group or an IRC room of some sort? I'd love to check it out if possible

oh sorry, the chat I was talking about is the skype group for the gta 3d mod (op revamp pending), it's for team members only. you wouldn't want to read it though, lots of off-topic stuff and general bullsh*tting around

[Filip 414]

Sergiu has informed me about this. FINALLY THE NEW STUFF and finally I am impressed

 

Great work guys (well, maybe it wasn't so strenuous but the idea of changing names was brilliant.

 

I haven't seen this APC vehicle but I remember the top of it was present on a picture from DMA Design Ltd. studio.

Anyone is still trying to find more beta renders in Capital Autos site? I've tried so many combinations... I wonder if there are more 3-words names (like "iceCreamTruck").

 

I was also trying from technicanl side. Lot of website tools failed. I was trying by web.archive.org (in many sites you can find ALL urls of domain) but Rockstar sites are "protected" by robots.txt file

So if someone needed to do it the easy way they would have to hack it? I thought about just talking to Rockstar support and asking them if they could unlock it

better not mention it. knowing c*, they will just delete that section if sonebody asks for it

I've still got that brute force program running. It's taking ages though.

Exactly, same here. Those other pictures were uploded but they selected only a few for the site. I checked that the "new" photos we found don't have thumbnail versions(/small/*.jpg) so they weren't meant to be on the site.

Did you program it to search some key words? Or just every letter combinations?
