When it was realized that a copy of German Mac Oni contained extra files, the community called this version "beta 5" because it was thought to come after the leaked [[Mac beta 4]]; but in fact the extra files would likely have come from Oni's <u>pre</u>-beta period. It was also called the "Big Blue Box beta" or the "BBB beta" (or "BBBB") because the copy of Oni came from a German four-game bundle called The Big Blue Box. However, all German copies of Oni for the Macintosh seem to have these files, as do the French, Italian and Spanish localizations. The U.S. release of Oni for the PS2 has the extra level scripts but not the tool files. The Japanese releases for Mac and Windows have the tool files but not the extra scripts. | When it was realized that a copy of German Mac Oni contained extra files, the community called this version "beta 5" because it was thought to come after the leaked [[Mac beta 4]]; but in fact the extra files would likely have come from Oni's <u>pre</u>-beta period.
