My first gaming setup. The computer would run so hot that it would normally shutdown. The fan kept that from happening :v

n00bstories IRC is on the monitor. Spent way too much time there when I had so many MMOs to play!

Second build was awesome and didn't lag when running around in Iron Forge! What a dream it was back then. I took apart my 360 because the disk wouldn't spin. Looked up a guide and tried to figure it out. The old APB forums are up on the monitor. Good times...

Here's when I finished. Had to place the clip on it and spin the disk once. It would normally run for about 2-3 hours before I had to do it again :sweatdrop:

I don't have any more photos to share, never was one to take or be in lots of them.  But I do have some old silly stuff from Dri Reign, TeamNT, and a couple things that Kicken and I worked on.

First up, Classic Colors pack. @ Kicken and I worked on this, and finished it, back in December 2007.  Here is a signature we made to advertise we had made it:

Download link here, because why not.

Next up, some music.  This is in no way exhaustive, but it is a collection of APB Music I collected that started in 2005 and terminated in 2011.
Link Here!

While we're at it, here is a pair of songs made for/used in Reborn from 2006 & 2009.

Lastly, some shitty comic characters I made for the Dri Reign and TeamNT communities, which were made largely of people from a variety of w3d communities at the time.  I haven't seen so many of these folks in such a long time.

And that's all I really have, or at least all I can find on this rig.  One day I'll dig out old hard drives and crawl through those, but this is all that I have currently.

This is what got me to expand on the idea of "classic colors" with the introduction of different house colors for the Allies and Soviets. Thanks for this.

Last update I had from a family member said he was doing better, but hasn’t been able to return to doing music. He had health issues a few years ago and was in a wheelchair.

I don't know if this counts because I haven't been around as long as most of you guys, but I did randomly remember that I made a cutscene for the Soviets on Seamist all the way back when I first joined the community. 

Enjoy the cringe :v I may or may not remake this eventually, especially since I have actual facial hair.

@ V0LK0V I'd be interested to see what else you might have. I'm all over some preserving history :biggrin:

I don't think I have anything hiding around in my drive, but I'll take a look around and see if I can find anything.  If I do, I'll slide into your DMs.

I am surprised I haven't seen this yet. Do you have more APB/RA1 related ones? The voice acting is great :)

Where it all began.

Nein!

We had RenIP and APBIP before that haha.

That one was pretty cool though, I miss that era of things with the cool theming we did to everything. The PDF game manuals, etc. And of course yearly (or less) patches servers capped at 26 so we would all sit and wait and spam the join button. Good times...

EDIT: I wonder if I could "fix" that thing to actually work again nowadays with APB Beta :raise:

There was no cooler sound in 2008 for me than pressing that "Join Server" button and hearing the Rocket fire as I enter the server.
