Hey everybody, I just downloaded version 0 (first version uploaded to steam servers) of tf2. Apparently when valve updates tf2, they don't delete any old versions from their servers. I couldn't get it to load any maps without crashing. (pretty much everything crashed it.) I will be uploading some unused files, you can make requests too, I'll do what I can. The program I used is called DepotDownloader ([url]https://bitbucket.org/VoiDeD/steamre/downloads[/url])
is this where that one person got the official grenade textures?
[QUOTE=dongalator;40498659]is this where that one person got the official grenade textures?[/QUOTE] Yes.
Is this the TF2 Beta, or the first TF2 version released publicly?
[QUOTE=kida23;40498676]Is this the TF2 Beta, or the first TF2 version released publicly?[/QUOTE] Not sure, but it's the first on the steam servers.
So, do you have access to the GCF's and all that fun stuff?
[QUOTE=Mad Chatter;40498732]So, do you have access to the GCF's and all that fun stuff?[/QUOTE] That's what it downloads, the GCF contents
Oh good, I always love when people snoop around through old stuff like this.
I can't quite get the program to down the version I want, how would I go about getting version 0?
Is the included lightwarp different from the one that shipped with V1? Extract it and install it over the current version as a mod to test this. I'd love to have an [i]OFFICIAL[/i] beta lightwarp. Others have come close, but this would be the real deal. [editline]t[/editline] Any plans on listing content from iterative versions between V0 and V1? Content added (and subsequently removed) before the first beta period would be fascinating to see.
I'd love some pictures! :3
Wanna get old versions of maps. Or even first 2fort without the roof on the bridge and more water

Hm Wonder if there's any un-scaled/artifacted textures for the player models in there.
It would cool if someone could port them to our TF2.
nvm
I think, tranquilizer gun for Spy would be great in TF2 now. And grenades too, if they would be secondary weapons.
How would you go about using the depotdownloader? Regardless of which commandline args i specify, it gives me "steam3 timed out" and "access denied" on every depot except HL1 low violence gibs
Do i need to download version 0 or 1? I'm not sure if 0 wont result in latest version download
[QUOTE=Mitchel.;40499951]Do i need to download version 0 or 1? I'm not sure if 0 wont result in latest version download[/QUOTE] Well, 0 is the first
great scott... amazing!
I've seen a Gamebanana mod that replaced the pill nades with the simular looking ones in the above picture. I like to see where this is heading.
Now to figure out how to use it. :v: Edit: But really, The lightwarps would be nice to see (materials/models/player/pyro/? I don't know how the file setup is for lightwarps on that version, so it may differ), seeing as the vtf version may not be compatible with our current TF2, one can easily convert it to modern formats. edit2: okay got it working, but it's the latest version. I'll cancel and wait for things to pop up in this here thread.
Am I the only one unable to get it to download version 0?
I wish you could upload it but then we would be pirates (not sure lol)

Does it allow to download old versions of other games? I would love to see how Portal looked back at the time it used spirals. Soooo... How do i use this? He says it needs an account to download the content.
