in NS Customization
<div class="IPBDescription">what were they?</div> just wondering (if anyone here was an original ns playtester) what the orginal "stand in" models were for the beta builds of ns. i heard that the stukabat was a lerk and the genestealer was the fade in the early versions. but what were the others? i would imagine a houndeye being a gorg replacement but i have no idea about the rest. can anyone enlighten me?

    hehehe...

    well, in the old NSTR, the skulks were some pinkish creature from Op4.

    When the playtesting started, the skulk model was ready, the gorge was the pinkish thing, the lerk was some kind of bird model (I guess stukabat, dunno), the fade was a genestealer, and we didn't get to use the onos until its model was done.

    i am installing NS again, because trying out the Skulk, crashed it....i think having that "old skool" feel would be nice, but having a game that works sounds better to me!

    Other placeholders:

    1) The turret factory served double duty as the armory.
    2) The CS HE grenade (scaled up) was the prototype lab.

    In my ns folder I also see a TF as a chemlab, and a scaled up grenade with weird metal textures on it for a 'medlab'(?).

    So, do you have the NSTR 1.0? Those models are from the NSTR2 :o

    At one point, the onos was the little spike-shooting, fast running creature from Op4. You could hear it stomping around, but the onlything visible was this little guy floating 6 feet in the air.
