I am not sure if we will be replicating some E3 scenes here as well.
EDIT: I keep getting an error message telling me there are too few characters in my post, even though there are over 1000, I'll fiddle around and hopefully get them working.

Beginning of IJ level, the streambed is lined by jungle on either side, fallen rotten logs lay over it and around it

The pond near the beginning of IJ

Raptor in the streambed

Early mock scene used to display various animals and items, appears to be part of the stream bed
Image
Infamous water source and pickable flower, with trike
Image
Green Rex knocks a hunter vehicle aside in the widened stream bed area

Construction Crane

Perhaps a pond by the side of the road in the final stretch of IJ?
Image
Biosyn chopper remains in what appears to be some sort of old river bed, moist mud with rocky beaches.

Here are links that refuse to work and I cant be bothered putting them through tinyurl

unsure if this is JR, Plains, or IJ but it appears to be IJ initially

I've been thinking about this. Maybe we should focus first of all in using the areas already in build 96 and the retail. Then as we do some more research in this, we could try to recreate some of this.

A lot of the shots appear to be based on having a more swamp landscape, before the cavern became part of the level, removing the swamp and lake, if the lake itself existed, going by the walkthrough, the cavern replaced the lake idea.

I prefer a lake, the gorge/cavern area didnt work very well, there were lots of issues with terrain rendering in there and it felt out of place (then there's that ridiculous stone steps part just before you jump down into the final area)

The build 96 IJ have many evidence of the swamp, among there swampplanks underground in the level. There is also objects that show you how you were able to move across over the passway you walk before the first T-Rex.
