It's a video in EscapePlay format from Eidos, same format as used in e.g. the first few Tomb Raider games. The enclosed player corrupted the video on my end even when launching in 16-bit color mode as it requested - colors were all wrong - but a different RPL player EscapePlay worked. I captured the video with OBS and here you go:

Re: A General Beta/Developement Discussion Thread (For the entire Unreal games too)
Do any of screenshots have any mention of
Cmbdm1.unr ?
Is it possible it was that circular deathmatch level that MMU/gamesharder (forgot which) remade?
Because theres a mention of this level and a bug that was fixed around 0.871d in tim's log.
Also there are mentions later of ToxicLite and ChizraLight, whether those were test versions or demo versions i have no clue, like that mini chizra level in the version i remember?

Its only present in the newest tim's log, not in the versions that end at march 1998 like the commonly seen one.

The later version also has Tim Sweeney going all "FUCKIN' RAW!" over the state of the Unreal manual.
but it might be that map for all we know.
Map mentions from the later version until release:
4-9-98
+ chizralight.unr
5-5-98
+ dmrefuse refuses to load
5-16-98
+ queenend.unr showstopper
anyways that screenshot yea...what was the original name of it though? it had some dm something in the name of the screenshotManual changes
--------------
Overall: Run it through a spell checker!
Cover page: Take out the "F. Hardy" name. That doesn't belong!
Crappy sketch page: Crap! Burn it!
Story page: Replace "shittiest" with non obscene term.
but it might be that map for all we know.

Its called differently, Unreal1Log.txt I believe. And during the developement crunch Tim accidentaly started to date things "97" again.Gamesharder wrote: ↑Sun Apr 20, 2025 11:15 pm Newest Tim's Log? lol

Search for Unreal1Log in one of the archives of another game that we have. Its somewhere there.

Was Michiel van den Bos ever asked about what he called this specific track? Or did it even have a title?

Interesting short teaser about a beta UT version. Not seen before, I think.
