Please don't triple post. The themes can be found on the Abe's Oddysee and Abe's Exoddus discs for the PC. But if you ask someone nicely, they'll upload it for you.

:)Does anyone know Stranger's height in metres? :)'Cause I wanna know.

Glukinator 04-22-2007 07:41 AM

I am back after a long time and I have a question. Is there any way to see the AE short film or is it gone from history?

Wil 04-22-2007 10:05 AM

It does exist on VHS cassettes, although just how many of them there are, I don’t know. I have one; Xavier has another. If we can find the means and time to convert them to a digital video and put them online, we will.

Zerox 04-22-2007 11:01 AM

My video player is dead, yet I still have some great videos I really want to watch again D: Everyone else in our family has working ones.

Apparently there was a video, a few minutes long, with Irwin and Humphrey in that was entered for...something...but anyway, I can't seem to find this video anywhere, not even the Oddworld Library. Also, does the video with the Sea Rex in exist anywhere either, cause I can't find it.

moxco 04-22-2007 11:12 AM

Picture request.
can I have all the pictures of outlaw flamers that you guys have?

Bullet Magnet 04-22-2007 12:39 PM

TOGG is your friend!

Nate 04-23-2007 01:32 AM

Dude! Three and a half hours is not long enough to expect a reply. Perhaps if a couple of days had gone by and your question hadn't been answered, it would then be understandable if you reminded us about it.

The short answer is: the video is not available anywhere. You'll just have to sit tight and wait for it to be available on TOA.

That's an awesome picture. Only... since when did flamers have a robotic leg?

Bullet Magnet 04-23-2007 06:27 AM

Since always! Their Scrab Cakes really did cost them an arm and a leg.

Why is the "Captured by Outlaws" video on TOL cut in half, since the second part doesn't seem to be there anywhere? Also, can anyone tell me (PM if necassary) what the 'special/extra' ending for Stranger is (when you get at least 20,000 Moolah), presuming there is one?

Wil 04-29-2007 04:13 PM

The ‘Captured by Outlaws’ video is only half of its proper length because that’s how it is. That’s how we got it, so that’s all we can offer… at the moment. There is no alternative ending to Stranger’s Wrath.

Zerox 04-30-2007 11:16 AM

You were given those vids? By who? Nah, nevermind.
If there is no alternative ending to Stranger's Wrath, how come I've seen so many forum members posting about what does happen when you get the required Moolah?

Because the members you're talking about tend to be noobs trying to act cool. :)

Wil 04-30-2007 02:59 PM

It’s a commonly asked question. That’s why it is answered in TOL’s unofficial F.A.Q. It makes sense that there should be multiple endings. Every previous Oddworld game did, and there’s even an equivalent to rescuing Mudokons in Stranger’s Wrath&mash;​collecting Moolah. It stands to reason, then, that there would be different outcomes depending on whether or not you had the 20 000 Moolah by the time you get to Doc’s Mongo Retreat.

But the story is quite clear. D. Caste Raider reached Doc long before Stranger could, whether he had the Moolah or not, so it couldn’t possibly make the blindest bit of difference.

Actually we don't get videos from people we search for them on the net by ourself. There is no secret underground stuff going on. ;)

Bullet Magnet 05-01-2007 07:53 PM

That's exactly what you would say if there was! By virtue of your denial, it must be true.

Heh, you can find everything back by yourself if you don't beleive me ;)
Anyway, what should I tell you to make you believe me?

Bullet Magnet 05-02-2007 07:47 AM

It's the conspiracy theorist's secret weapon. If you deny it, you're lying, it must be true. If you admit it, truthfully or not, it's a confession.

Zozo the Zrilufet 05-05-2007 06:56 AM

http://oddworldlibrary.net/archives/...=RAMO0036.jpg2 :)Who's this guy?

Bullet Magnet 05-05-2007 09:46 AM

That's the Chronicler, a race of lawyers and accountants and probably bureaucrats who were cut from MO. Their staff is an abacus, see? Beats me how the beads stay in position at that angle.

It seems that as a race they are considered semi-canon, like the meetles, and tend to pop up in fanfics and RPGs.

I wonder what will ever happen to RuptureFarms?

It exploded. :rolleyes:

Wil 05-06-2007 10:15 AM

No, it didn’t.

No, it didn’t.

It didn't? I heard from someone on here that it did...?

Wil 05-06-2007 10:20 AM

RuptureFarms gets its power killed, then its C.E.O. was killed. That’s all. It was going to reappear in Munch’s Oddysee gameplay, and I think it has a part to play in the continuing story of the Quintology.

Munch's Master 05-06-2007 10:31 AM

If the story of the Quintology is ever continued. I mean, it's been nearly 2 years since we last heard anything new about the movie. I don't think it's going to happen anymore :(

Bullet Magnet 05-06-2007 11:00 AM

You're not going to hear anymore about the Oddworld movie while they're still working on Siege, are you? Not when they have nothing else to tell. All they'll probably have now apart from what we've already seen (and played) is an early script, and they're not going to show us that!

then its C.E.O. killed. That’s all..

That's false.

squeak117 05-08-2007 12:16 AM

A question not necessarily related to Oddworld, though not worthy of creating a new thread over.
Is there a discussion thread for 'Citizen Seige' anywhere? I've searched and I didn't find anything. Would someone please enlighten me?

Nate 05-08-2007 04:08 AM

There have been several threads discussing the various announcements regarding CS (and whether they whole project is a good idea or not) but there has been no real discussion thread as we still have naught to discuss.

It turns out to be false: the Inhabitants haven’t determined that yet.

Cullen Heath 05-08-2007 02:34 PM

Yes. They have.
Remember Mollucks trial with Maggie...?

Wil 05-08-2007 02:53 PM

That hasn’t happened yet.

Bonedust 05-08-2007 05:41 PM

Didn't that happen in the European Pre-ordered version of Strangers Wrath?

Wil 05-08-2007 06:01 PM

There were videos on the Movies of Oddworld bonus DVD (which was shipped with pre‐ordered copies of Stranger’s Wrath in the U.S., and not Europe) that were made for Munch’s Oddysee, but not included in the finished game.

The trials do take place, and they will take place, but haven’t yet occurred in the established canon.

At least, my saying that will hopefully curb this pointless and off‐topic aside.

OddjobAbe 05-09-2007 10:08 AM

Where did the Intern Shock Rockers go to? They were never seen in-game.

Wil 05-09-2007 11:29 AM

They weren’t used in the game, yes. Very true. The question should be why they were included in the manual. Maybe they were removed rather last‐minute and there wasn’t time to remove them from the cast list, or nobody thought to.

Bullet Magnet 05-09-2007 03:32 PM

Are the models, animations, sounds and general shock rocker data still embedded in the code?

Xavier 05-10-2007 12:28 AM

I can read only small parts of the codes at the moment, the only thing I could read was something about 2 different models of Interns, with or without armor.

I'll try to look deeper into it when I get home ;)
