Message: [QUOTE="Waffles, post: 407472, member: 703"] I'm always amazed by this, but there truly was a seizable homebrew/homemade community during the pre-internet era, and they always seemed to find their way around through the tried-and-true method of "got it from someone who knew someone else". I remember getting handed floppy disks full of patches for games like FIFA 98: Road To The World Cup and Wolfenstein 3D that greatly improved those games by replacing models and sprites and giving them a little bit of local flavor, turning them into almost entirely new experiences. Then you had massive efforts like that of the PC Fùtbol community, whom were all about modifying the actual jerseys of the many teams featured on the game to show the right endorsements and publicity for each and every one of them, which was just mind-blowing to me. And I seem to recall modified cars for Need For Speed III being available, but I never got my hands on those. What about you? What were your coolest finds of the pre-internet era? [/QUOTE]
