@@Puffmac1 Maurice is a common French name. For me it is easy to remember this name because there is a well known French composer named Joseph Maurice Ravel.
There must be new discoveries out there, but I fear we're in a difficult position. We need to reach out to some of the people that worked on the games and see if they have any insight they can share. It's such an old game now, surely they can get away with sharing SOMETHING? Anyway - another fantastic video. I always look forward to your videos and I appreciate the dedication and hard work. Thank you.
The problem with such a length of time is that sure, they probably wouldn't get in trouble for sharing stuff, but they probably don't remember much. I imagine much of the little development info covered in these videos would also be news to the people who worked on the game because they just wouldn't remember this stuff. 20+ years is a long time to go back
TFW when two of your subscribed youtubers calibrate together. Great work Vadim and Matt. Now i wish if a beta build for GTA 3 or Vice City gets leaked out to the public. I remember hearing someone who managed to recover some files from various GTA V build from 2013 and 2012 but not fully.
It is curious to see that some cars were cut, remade or renamed because they were just too british to be in a usa city based game. The old ice cream truck looked like a toyota hiace van, the space to a renault espace and the luton to a ford transit.
I have just realized that our time, is over. Flash is gone and while The site still exists. Its only a remake using HTML 5. So there is a big possible that those renders that haven’t been found. May never be seen.
Out of sheer happiness of seeing Vadim M pop up in Notification, soon as I clicked on the video, I got the message: "Your PC ran into a problem and needs to restart SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION" -_-
I'd seen the initial car website, but never thought to put other names in those links. That's cool. The GTA 3 site is full of fun stuff, like calling Vice City Miami and referencing Florida...Despite already having Vice City in GTA 1 anyway. So I like to think the GTA universe is side by side with a copy of ours, and those cities are just smaller sister cities to the real counter parts....being as other real world places are mentioned and even the real cities anyway are mentioned in songs and whatnot. Getting off track but yeah I used to brows that site myself ages ago. P.S. You should care about the top down GTA magazines, a lot of stuff the third person games has ideas from them. Like drive-able trains, multiple ethnicities and genders for player characters. Driving trains. Drive by's. I dunno how much those old magazines would mention this stuff, but the games themselves have a lot in common with the later games, more than many would think. Some cars from GTA 1 made it into GTA 2 and then onto the next games....The Stallion for instance has been in all GTA games in one form or another. Except GTA 2.
I would say the "luton" refers to the manufacturer "Bedford" who make that type of vehicle in the UK, as well as being famous for it's Vauxhall plant. Luton being in Bedfordshire the county. Maurice is obviously a point to "Morris" who were very popular manufacturer's of vehicles in the UK from 50's onwards. It looks kind of like a Morris traveller at first point.
Some of the early models actually look better than the in-game ones (obviously the textures were shit though) and the early cars had much lower suspension making them all look sleeker, particularly the U-Jerk and Stretch.
Hello everyone, wanna add some facts, that weren't included in this video. 1. Hachura appears in GTA San Andreas too - same model from GTA 3 and Vice City is used, just texture of headlights and grill. Screen for example: snag.gy/nHQZUX.jpg 2. Also we've already seen Taxi render in Mean Street Taxi's poster: snag.gy/2Y8Lp1.jpg 3. Blista's beta name "Space" is acutally a tricky reference. The thing is - Blista on the alpha stage resembled Honda Oddyssey a lot, which was named as a refference to Stanley Kubrick's movie "2001: A Space Oddyssey". Rockstar have tried to refer to its prototype with using other word from the name of the movie.
The Luton Was Changed from a Transit to a Econoline because the Luton is based on the 2nd Gen version of the Transit which was never in America so it was changed
1:16 Luton is a type of van in the UK where Rockstar North was based. That van also looks a hell of a lot like the model of transit van we had in the UK back then.
Most likely because they were created with no console limitations or branding issues in mind, so the models end up looking as high quality and more closer to a real life branded car.
For me they look just more aerodynamic beeing accualy less profiled with more reflections added to them. I beleve it's because it suits cartoon style game better so no console limitation is necessary to be lika it so as they made them for alpha/beta content they must have been done right at that point.
I think the final two unknown renders not found at the end of the video look like the later cheetah model in vice city and the Sabre again in vice city
The "Maurice" is named after the Morris Oxford Traveler station wagon, a British car that looks almost exactly like the Perennial. Also the "Space" is named after the Renault Espace
It doesn't work on this website but on some other sites you can delete the jpg name, leave the last / and it will give you a directory of every file in that folder. View an images url, if there is a seperate image folder you can sometimes look it up
Murice is a reference t Morris Motors a British car maker that became part of Austin. Mostly they are considered boring cars so the name is just a way the devs were joking about the dullness of this car. Luton is a van type with a enclosed box body. It takes its name from the town of Luton, in Bedfordshire, where Bedford Vehicles made vans. (though most Bedfords look like the vans called Luton in GTA and not Luton type vans but the Box Van in GTA is a Luton type)
"never before seen... By gta3Dteam" would be more accurate. I love these kinds of videos, but there were hardcore players back in 2001-2002. We found all this stuff, it was definitely seen
Those renders look like Simpsons Hit and Run vehicles. They're interesting to look at, but I think they made the right choice in toning down the colors.
I prefer the old bobcat, cuz in the final version looks too tall, and the same with the taxi, but i still loving its preformance. Wich is your favourite GTA III car? LET ME KNOW IN THE COMMENTS I almost won a prize with that phrase.

It's not really related, but one of the callers on Chatterbox complains about "Gardening with Maurice" being taken off the air. However, you can listen to this program in GTA San Andreas on WCTR
Alot of sprites from gta 2 appear in gta 1 but also some from gta 1 are featured, yet never shown for some reason; the trashmaster we all know appeared in both games, but the "subway train" did appear in gta1, you could even drive it and when you enter it has the same name. The funny thing is, in gta 1 you start outside a subway train; which arrives after a small while, giving you a chance to steal it, block it or blow it up :)
It’s like they widened the area of the front of the tank widened the “bumper” put covers over the wheels and moved one set forward for a door. Don’t you see lights at night on it too? I have a faint memory of seeing lights on a rhino

Vadim M , How about GTA V Alpha cars?
I have a Gta 3 magazine for PS2
Vadim M Hey Vadim,
In the site there is an alpha version of the Panto
Vadim M did see that all the cars and trucks have the same rims in the beta ones
Vadim M man i khnow it is hard to make these videos but you have to upload more often or your channel will be dead and you are not going to grow.
i love how a BMW inspired car is named "beamer"
Aint the gta bmw the sentinel now?
@@Sykozona sentinels old name was beamer in the beta/alpha version of gta 3
@@OsoArrogantEric you think I don't know that
@@Sykozona thought u didnt know cuz u asked if the sentinel was the bmw of gtas
nice pfp
"Stretch" stayed cause its such a great name for a limo
Now that's a stretch
Robciomixxnfs sure is!
I don't know dude, ur kinda stretching it
well, since the flash sites dissapeared, so did the oportunity to find more of these hidden renders. Such a shame
The folder is still accessible on the internet wayback machine, however, it looks like all of the files archived are already known.
Damn... that site has so many nostalgic memories for me. rip
don't worry, we did found all of them already
I like how beta vehicles all had the same Dodge Viper style rims even trucks!
Pretty weird cause the U Jerk (yes that sounds worng) in the video looks a lot like a older version of a Ford F-150.
Even the tanks
Ahh yes the dodge APC And Dodge Truck
Those rims were probably placeholder for all vehicles before adding new rims
Ahh, Finally someone mentions the beta car's rims.
It's great to see this go live. Thanks for the collaboration!
MattJ155 you have a strange dialect

Come back in 5 years, you'll have more or less forgotten everything you just watched.

The van is called Luton because thats what we call box vans in the UK
Hm, didn't know that :P
The Voice over didn't either if you don't believe me Google Luton Van
It's not a commonly used term now, but they used to be called 'box lutons'. The alpha van also looks a hell of a lot like a Ford Transit.
and the Maurice is probably named after the old British car manufacturer Morris, not a novel.
@@Puffmac1 Maurice is a common French name. For me it is easy to remember this name because there is a well known French composer named Joseph Maurice Ravel.

I think people could write a bot which automatically bruteforces the end of the url
aa aa ddos
I agree
It is actually not that hard
Oh yeah
Beta tank looks better than the final one
yes
Doctor Dollars true
Which is meant to be GTA IV but a bit similar
It's based on a TPz Fuchs, which makes a bit more sense than the LAV300-ish Rhino.
Beta Sentinel too.
I disagree, but it would still be cool to have both a tank and an APC in gta3
For anyone asking, no it does not work anymore. Flash is dead and so are all the car.jpg's
TFW when two of your subscribed youtubers calibrate together. Great work Vadim and Matt.

Maurice might be a reference to Morris (Motors), but I could be wrong.
No, you're not. There is a car in GTA2 called "Maurice" which is actually a Morris Minor
It took me 1 hour to make Thai subtitles, You barely see Thai people speak English and use English well. even I can't use the grammar perfectly.
Thank you for the subtitles!

I have just realized that our time, is over. Flash is gone and while
The site still exists. Its only a remake using HTML 5. So there is a big possible that those renders that haven’t been found. May never be seen.
Wayback machine?
It's sad that the site is no longer available.
The "Space" is almost certainly a reference to the Renault Espace :)
These alpha cars and graphics are more realistic then original GTA 3
Yeah The best channel on RUclips
Using software like DirBuster may be of use.
I tried to use DirBuster, also scanned the site with URL Fuzzer. It seems not to be that easy after all.

are you considering on doing more gta iv early features and what was suppose to be in-game,etc?
Not yet.
Vadim M why
I would say the "luton" refers to the manufacturer "Bedford" who make that type of vehicle in the UK, as well as being famous for it's Vauxhall plant. Luton being in Bedfordshire the county.
Maurice is obviously a point to "Morris" who were very popular manufacturer's of vehicles in the UK from 50's onwards. It looks kind of like a Morris traveller at first point.
U-Jerk looks more beefier, especially with the large headlights. Represents an American Truck : The 2004 Ram 1500.
I just realized this; GTA III was released in 2001, yet they predicted the look of the 2004 Dodge Ram 1500.
Maurice is probably a reference to the old car manufacturer Morris
Yes, the perennial kinda reminds me of the old Morris Mini Traveller
And I thought I knew everything about Gta. You come along and blow my mind. Amazing Video.
Some of the early models actually look better than the in-game ones (obviously the textures were shit though) and the early cars had much lower suspension making them all look sleeker, particularly the U-Jerk and Stretch.
I prefer the older, Dreamcast-looking models,personally.
Me too.
Wow I really love the look of bot alpha and final build gta 3 cars. They just look so cool
Amazing that new things are still being found about this game. Thanks for the video.
Fun Fact: They used most of the cars in gta3 beta in gta chinatown wars.
*Please make part 2,you forgot talk about old render of very early version of Infernus called Furore GT.*
Hey and that was brought back in gtav i believe
The "Space" minivan - Renault Espace. Similar to beamer probably being BMW.
beamer is because british people often calls "bimmer" bmw cars.
Nice, another video to enjoy! :)

Finally the good content of RUclips!
It would be creepy how in the game files, there was audio of screaming children that would occur if Claude ever stole a bus
OH NO
Claude is naughty
Luton - Ford Transit
Space - reference to Ford Galaxy/Aerostar/Windstar/Freestar
The Luton Was Changed from a Transit to a Econoline because the Luton is based on the 2nd Gen version of the Transit which was never in America so it was changed
Great video as always! Keep up the great work.
1:16 Luton is a type of van in the UK where Rockstar North was based. That van also looks a hell of a lot like the model of transit van we had in the UK back then.
I'm very late and this might have been covered but "Space" would likely be a play on the Honda Odyssey Minivan.
why cars form beta version is more prettier than original?
Most likely because they were created with no console limitations or branding issues in mind, so the models end up looking as high quality and more closer to a real life branded car.
I don't know, they look more shiny and with less details.
For me they look just more aerodynamic beeing accualy less profiled with more reflections added to them. I beleve it's because it suits cartoon style game better so no console limitation is necessary to be lika it so as they made them for alpha/beta content they must have been done right at that point.
They have an cartoony style
I've seen pre-release footage with FAR better sound effects than the final game, but it's possible they were dubbed in after.
I would love to see RS do a GTA in cel shading. If you look up mid showcases it really shows potential. Almost like a comic book aesthetic.
I was watching ur old videos then bam u upload
Wut
I think the final two unknown renders not found at the end of the video look like the later cheetah model in vice city and the Sabre again in vice city
Great video! Keeping GTA 3 alive!
The "Maurice" is named after the Morris Oxford Traveler station wagon, a British car that looks almost exactly like the Perennial. Also the "Space" is named after the Renault Espace
Really good editing as always, do you have an editing team or is there just one person editing?
Excellent video as always
Wow this is awesome! I love the look of that 'Panto' car, shame it didn't get into the final game
It doesn't work on this website but on some other sites you can delete the jpg name, leave the last / and it will give you a directory of every file in that folder. View an images url, if there is a seperate image folder you can sometimes look it up
Did you do this?

NICE VIDEO!
I like how the wheels on the old renders look almost exactly like the wheels on some older Hotwheels car models.
Thanks for the video. I'm curious how you visited the old GTA websites, as many of the links in the description no longer seem to work now

You can at least get beta cars. Google it.
I also think that there's a mod that brings back the old HUD.
I wonder why a school bus was cut from a game about stealing cars and killing people
