If any of the team is in the US they could always just subpoena the ISP associated with an IP that may have done something such as upload the ISO or make message board posts. If they can track down just one person to be accountable it's typically enough to disrupt the project indefinitely if not end it altogether.

Resident Evil 1.5 Leaked
- Thread starter randomwab
- Start date
...as in "omg so exciting" or "omg this is crap"?
Just depends on how far they plan to go with it. There's plenty of scripted scenes within the data of the beta that aren't readily viewable by just playing through it as is, as well as full maps and existing backgrounds for the entire game. Implanting those in, in addition to adding items and other "objectives" will go a long way to making it like a complete game.
However, From everything we know about 1.5, it was much more linear than the RE2 we have today (Not as much backtracking, not as many bosses, kind of a Point A --> Point B --> Point C type of game, ) Even if everything was restored, I doubt it would be a super long game. Considering a lot of this restoration is coming from exisiting data/known information, I wouldn't be expecting the end result to be an extremely long game. I'm faithful though the end result will be a very good representation of what the final version of 1.5 would have been like though.

Diablos you are no fun.
This is a pretty significant piece of gaming history.
It's cool to finally get some hands time on it. Not to mention sure Capcom can C&D but I really dont think RE1.5 is going to hurt there current image. Hell them C&Ding it would just look bad on them at this point.

Amazing!

Not sure why people are complaining. Dude this would never seen the light of day if it wasnt for the people working on getting the beta for the past few years. Yes its an unfinished copy because *gasp* Capcom scrapped this version (RE 1.5) and never finished it.
So the fine gents/coders are injecting their own C code to fix alot of the bugs and adding areas that were missing to make it as much playable as possible. Will they get it 100%? No. Will they get close....yes. Should we be happy, absolutely. Last time gamer saw this shit was in tiny ass magazine pics from 199x.
Too late, it's out there. Fuck tha Capcops. The holy grail has been found, yo.

This team's work isn't done yet.... we don't want the final version to be halted.
(edit: unless you mean the iso of the unedited 1.5 find)

I have no psx emulator on hand but exciting news.

So incase anyone hasn't found out, you can hit select in your inventory and select different items/weapons with L1 and R1 buttons. L2 and R2 skips through the list.
There's a load of weapons that aren't usable for Eliza and just bug out, but 1 pistol fully works and 1 shotgun works. Both machine guns also work(though they lack a reloading animation/function without combining, but shooting any zombies in the intro room freezes the game.
I'm guessing all of the weapons that leon has in his inventory are feature complete? But you need to add ammo.
Also, don't mess with the knife equipment slot or else you can't get out of the menu. I suggest state saving before messing around.
Edit: If you make it to the intro Eliza room with Leon you can use the shotgun to blast apart the zombies. Fully working dmg model is impressive with the amount of different ways the limbs get blown off.

I thought the intention is release a complete game. They're filling the blanks with they very own backgrounds, as far as I'm aware the script is complete and so are the maps.
We won't get voices or an ending movie and thinks like that. but we'll get a full game.

You bastard. Why did you have to remind me of true fantasy live online? My most hyped MMO ever.
Hoping on the RE 1.5 wagon. Always love me some traditional Biohazard.

I think this so called 80% finished game is mostly assets and textures, the last 20% was game code!

But even this fan restoration isn't finished either.
Aren't most PS1 games like that?

every time I try to pick something up, Elza climbs up on a non-existent surface above the item, suspending me in mid-air.
so, Elza should be brought back and made protagonist of RE7.

Temptation to buy a CD-R rising... I even have the modded PS2 hooked up and everything.... But it's like $2 per disc after the Canadian music industry levy 
I still might want to wait for the final fan release.. But just to finally see this thing in motion...

Elza is twice the size there
Nah, but this is unfinished. This is like 20% of the fans work while still 40-80% Capcoms. So for the most part it's still 1.5 even if it isn't fully 1.5, all the areas the fans haven't done or redone is Capcom's work. That's completely fine with me since for the most part the collectors that have the most complete of it won't release that.

She's huge. The streamer somehow climbed "onto" a wall, and it messed up the perspective or something, because suddenly Elza looked gigantic on the next screen.

I stopped playing and just decided to watch the stream. All kinds of craziness when you play as Leon.

Thinks buying more servers can fix a bad patch
First GBC, now RE 1.5 now time to wait to the two Game Cube Betas.
There basically no "beta" for the GC RE1 version since there isn't much changes in the first place.
The only 'beta' for RE0 exist for N64 but largely unfinished (only a portion of the train section) and it looks to play the same as finished version too. Except for some graphical and cosmestic differences there isn't much different. There is also one yellow slug monster too but it exist only in concept art form and nobody know if it will have made it into a hypothetical finished N64 version anyway.
RE1.5 is largely different from the finished game as compared to RE0 and REmake beta, and bits and pieces of it exist in various places in various forms (videos, demo disc etc) and was like around 80% done.

S-S-S-S-S-Sherry anyone?
Ok for those confused.
You are NOT meant to play THIS version of the game. This was released because somebody leaked it and began selling it, so the restoration group (that is completing the code so it becomes playable) released it so people would not fall for the scam.
The "complete" restored Resident Evil 1.5 IS INCOMING, so if you are not DYING to play this and could wait for the real version, don't even bother to look at this.

That was Mike Haggar. I don't care what anyone says, he had the same build and carried a massive pipe.

Yeah. I was dying to play it however seeing that it's been so long since I've played an RE game. It was nice.

Did Alyson Court actually voice Elza at one point? Or is that like a placeholder voice for her?
