    Working on preservation of EU's history I'm looking for more info from the early days.

    A 244 KB .mov file from ~2001 showing an Entropia creature in motion. Possibly the first public video of Project Entropia.

    The following are very likely EBN headlines:
    • Robots are attacking fort zeus!
    • Rumours! Crashed cargo ship west of hadesheim?
    • Scientist warn citizens! Do not to drink from the yellow lakes or nearby waters.
    • Still no night on calypso, when will the sun die?
    Unfortunately I only have the headlines but not the full news text. They are probably from 2003 and there might be more. The idea is to have a complete archive of EBN news.

    Even further back :) In 2002 there was something like a monthly newsletter titled "Global News".

    Pretty much any other official news item from 2000 to 2003.

    A peek of what we have already: http://www.entropiaplanets.com/forum/entropia-news.51/?order=post_date&direction=asc

    I checked my own archive briefly but don't have anything that early.

    I hope some 2003 stuff will be uncovered once our secret little project gets done :)

    yes I'm looking forward to hopefully seeing where the Calypso height mapping initiative got to and how they were going about it as this is something I've always rather fancied doing myself.
     
  5. Thanks for documenting and doing all this work Tass

    I did find a pe opening movie in my collection but I think you already grabbed all I had. Doesn't feature a mob.

    Did just discover this old site (pe-player.com) dating back to 2004 though. Some movies on it ("the best" at least worked). Not the one you want though

    The problem with videos is that you always need to get the permission of the one who created them. Unless it's official promo material. I saw you've listed some there :)

    So basically I'm looking for all old promo movies, especially the best quality Sayah King video.

    We often joke at work about going to "copyright jail". Archive first apologise later and honour your takedown policy ;)
