mtn'man's Myst Online URU Live Pages

Until URU Screenshots from the Cavern and the Ages

The original URU Live was shut down abruptly in February 2004. In August of 2004 we suddenly found out that Cyan was giving us back an online presence. While there was no new content, we could once again meet in the city and hear the city noise instead of the cold quiet of the empty city. (Go back to Prime, go into the city and put your headphones on. It is very quiet. Then go back to Until URU and listen. The D'ni plumbers are working on the bathrooms and the city has voices again!)

Despite no new content, we had a tremendous time. The modified enhanced KI was a blast.

These are some of my favorite images from within the Until URU game while the Tapestry Shard was open.
I was the guy in the red shirt and the khaki pants and the Panama hat.

Click any image to see an 800 x 600 image, the largest I could do at the time. A new browser window will open.

One of my most favorite screenshots I've ever taken in URU is the lightning strike in the cleft. You can also see the bahro standing on the rim of the volcano.

I tried every time I finished a new shard and finally got the perfect shot.

This is a bitter sweet image.
At this point in the game you are done.

Well, that is...
Until URU.

One of the best things about URU is getting lots of people together in one place. Of course, we do crash the shard sometimes!	Getting into tight spaces can be fun as well..
Larger groups gathered together for events. A group looking at the imager on Myst 4 night.	The same group later listens to Myst 4 music right as Myst 4 was being shipped.
greypiffle moving Kerath's Arch around.	Tomala abuses Kerath's Arch!
Riding back on the "ferry ride" across the cavern.	Kierra with her famous conehenge.
I had the rainy cleft fissure bug for a while. You see the fissure even though I saw Yeesha.	The famous balcony jump. I think Riki got this shot of me coming down.
Me next to the "Zandoni" in the rainy cleft. You had to jump the fence, not too hard then.	You could jump up there and drive that bad boy! Yours truly crashes the Zandoni into the cleft!

Remember Live? Remember what the desktop looked like back then? No?

The last night of the original 2003-2004 URU Live I took a screenshot as I attempted to login...
