That's the YouTube video I mentioned above. Yeah I can't find anything by searching for it. The only results are either for the 1997 or 1998 prototypes, or for other Daikatana articles unrelated to any beta builds.

Ugh, I should've used the proper compilation parameters and adjusted the light quality more on the hindsight. Maraakate or someone should redo this video of this Living Quarters with proper gamma/brightness/intensity setting as well to show the progress done in 1.3 release on technical side. This map is supposed to look like a more cleaned up version of the Crematorium.

I should probably also do some restoration on some of the textures and puzzles to make it look nicer.

So this is interesting because I can't seem to find this particular map in the October 1999 Beta I found. No E1M4 is included in the maps. Could you point me in the right direction Dekonega? It looks like a really interesting level. Are there other maps like it (that is, for the beta but for some reason not included in it)?

Okay I found it on Internet Archive so it's all good now. Thank you for letting me know about compatibility mode.

Okay, I'll look around some more. I searched 'daikatana october 1999 beta' but got no results. Perhaps I'll have more luck with what you said.

Hi guys,
I'm a big Daikatana fan and I'm interested in the prototype builds. I have the 1997 Milestone 2 build that if memory serves John Romero approved the release of. I also have the 1998 alpha build too. A couple years back I had a copy of the October 1999 beta build, but for some reason it's gone and I can't find any trace of it online, including where I got it from originally. Does anyone know where I might find it again? There was a YouTube video showing off one of the beta maps, but it didn't link to anything in the description.

Oh I should also clarify: If the 1999 beta was released without permission and that's why it's no longer available anywhere then I won't pursue it any further. I have no interest in stepping on any toes. I just love the game, and I'm a bit of a completist for having as much variations of it as possible.
Any help or clarification would be great. Thanks guys!
