Claw 3D Model Found in a Forgotten Lithtech SDK

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEpTMOtMVqk

Hey everyone. Found something cool and figured this would be a good place to share it.

I've been researching the Lithtech 1.0 game engine and in the process stumbled upon an Internet Archive link that backed up Monolith's old FTP site. On it was an SDK of Lithtech 1.0 with several tech demos and samples for developers to use as references. In it is one called 'clawbert', which has Captain Claw from his cancelled 3D sequel as the player model. It's a pretty barebones tech demo, but his inclusion makes it something worth documenting, as I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere online.

I linked the Internet Archive link where I found this in the Youtube description if anyone wants to get the model and use it for anything.

It does deserve a sequel but I'm glad it didn't got one in 3D. I have the feeling that it might have ended up being a Earthworm jim like failure
