Fixed jump cut after the droids cross the hallway in the middle of the fight.Removed laser that came from the sight of one of the blasters.Added lasers to blasters that were fired with no bolt.Removed the full-screen pink flashes when blasters are fired.Re-edited the Imperial breaching scene, partially to remove continuity errors where troops can be seen dying more than once and to eliminate flip shots.Altered C-3PO’s line “They’ll be no escape for the princess this time” (not in PURIST).Restored original klaxon only heard in the original 1977 mono mix.Added announcement to Tantive interior from the radio drama.Sped up the starfield as Tantive is hit to match the speed it had been going in previous shots.Made Tantive IV react to the hit and have its engines fail.

Changed the explosion as the Tantive IV is hit to remove a lot of the smoke.Re-positioned the laser bolt that hits Tantive IV so it hits the spot that explodes.Removed the horrible blue hazing as the Star Destroyer’s engine come into view.Changed the flight path of Tantive IV so it can be seen the whole time the Star Destroyer is coming overhead.Made the Tatooine matte rotate slightly as the ships fly overhead.Retimed the pan down so Tatooine appears at the correct musical cue.Added a third moon of Tatooine to match the number seen in Attack of the Clones.Made the crawl appear slightly earlier as it did before the addition of the “A NEW HOPE” title, so it appears at the correct music cue that Williams intended.Slowed down the Star Wars logo to match the speed in the rest of the saga.Added blue glow to Falcon’s engines where missing (or wrong color) and red glow to Rebel fighter engines where missing.This extra layer mixed with the original gave Vader’s voice a very subtle difference to match it closer to the Empire Strikes Back voice. Added an extra audio layer to Vader’s voice, one with a robotic-type filter, gave it a 1 frame delay and also lowered the pitch very slightly.Changed Darth Vader’s eyepieces from red transparent to solid black to match the rest of the saga.
