R15 in the 2007 Roblox client

Silly little figure BENDS his limbs

this was made in the march 2007 client to be exact (literal nightmare to script for 😁)

imagine you had a time machine and posted this in 2007... you'd probably be regarded as like one of the best scripters of all time

[therealezg]

it does not feel right for a 2007 character to be walking around in R15

[ITPWA]

this is the equivalient of finding a nuclear reactor inside a prehistoric cave site

[IcefangGD]

Genuinely impressive as to how you managed to pull this off. A modern 2007 player would probably pass out.

[charlie-deactivated]

appreciate the effort put into this, as someone who has tried scripting in 2007 i cannot fathom how long it took to get any of this working

[NikowoOneshot]

Honestly, the low FPS kinda gives it a stylistic look. Almost reminds me of ToonTown.
Although the sheer amount of Cframes needed to be used must've been painful.

[braxflip]

this feels like seeing circles in minecraft

I wonder if the r6 vs r15 debate would be so heated if r15 was around since the beginning.

[RexxiToon]

so glad you used the 2017 r15 animations instead of the default "rthro" ones

What's weird is it looks better than actual R15. For actual R15, they for some reason decided to make it so you have smooth elbows by splitting the middle of the arm in such a way where the front and back look rounded when jutted out, but flat when not. However they don't account for when that section of the arm is turned in any direction other than forward/backward, which exposes the flat side inside.

This probably sounds like insane ramblings, but when you die in R15 (and the game doesnt use ragdolling or something else that overwrites the classic fall-to-pieces death), you'll see what I mean; your arm falls into three parts (hand, upper arm, lower arm).

imagine showing this to someone in 2007, they will probably freak out by how cool this looks

[Sillykids]

This is incredible! I really appreciate the amount of effort it must have taken to make this functional. Very charming!

[chairger]

this is pretty cool, thanks for time traveling 15 years back to show us this, really amazing how time machines work nowadays

[invalid_user_handle]

Pretty impressive considering how limited those old clients were, can't imagine how many CFrames you had to deal with.

[IHave_NoFreakingIdea]

Instead of getting a job to be an game programmer you decide to do this and that is what I respect

[JosStorm]

Feels good to hear the classic "oof" again

[HarvoSpoon]

I remember in the super nostalgia zone game (a simulation of 2006-2008 roblox) when someone hacked themselves into an R15 & started using emotes - crazy times...

[Xizilqou]

Looks like it was a lot of effort to make this functional, good job you nailed that weird unnatural "fat" look of r15 where all of the limbs are more wide than they are long due to being sliced from and made to fit inside the silhouette of the properly proportioned r6 limbs. R6 still looks better though

Ironically this R15 looks better than what we have right now
