Yes you are correct it is removed from there because I decided to check after posting.
I will post the clip with the extra sound effect on the xwing on this thread but as the cut shot of R2D2 in the canyon is simply a straight up removal and elimination of a scene there is not anything to show and you can recreate this yourself. I have given enough information about this as a guide.
Funnily enough whilst checking to see if that file was still thete on internet archive I downloaded Star Wars the Mystery & the magic US version… The promotional documentary for the special edition. I downloaded this for the binary sunset color grade (red version) which seems like it was meant to be a Special edition shot but never was included it looks totally different and worse in the 97 version but the red version does suffer from contrast issues but it is yet another change that slipped by. On the documentary it does make a point of stating “original version” and “special edition version” on this binary sunset shot however nothing is stated but it does seem to relate to the techni disc laserdisc release color. Anyway I am gearing up to sort this out over December / January.
I will post the snippet near the end of this week of xwing sound. Busy at the moment.
I do understand the desire to have the whole file… It sounds great looks bad though. If anything I can export the audio and share also.
There is also evidence of an earlier version of ben’s hutt special edition matte with a path to get to it found in star wars force commander pc game. I just aquired a good quality shot of the path that got filled in with rock / cliff face. It’s also good because the landspeeder obviously went up that way, up the path and is facing left. Where as in the 97 matte it looks as if there is no way up to Ben’s hut and it’s not clear how it could be reached. So it was Revised for the worse it seems.
