1st Logo (September 9, 1999-December 29, 2000)
The video of this logo may be too loud or severely distorted. |
Visuals: On a white background, a C-shaped row of yellow balls appears moving on and surrounded by another row of red balls, which just fade in. Then, the text "RenderWare" materialises next to the rings and a grey number "3" zooms back rotating next to "RenderWare".
Variants:
- There is a still prototype variant which takes place on a black background, and the colour rings face down and have a 3D effect. The name (without "3") is below it.
- There is a still version of the logo with a copyright notice below.
Technique: 2D computer animation. A digital graphic for the still version.
Audio: A harsh electronic jingle, followed by a rather loud whoosh. The still variants are silent.

Visuals: On a light blue background, three coloured shapes appear, each accompanied with a name of a RenderWare component, which dissolves immediately.
