Renegade X - February Update!
type: item
description: Renegade X: The Revolution of Renegade Hey all. It's been a few weeks since you've heard from us Just a small update for all of you! Light Tank Havoc89's been cooking up the light tank, first with a spectacular model and more recently with a texture. It's just about ready to kick some Medium Tank ass! Walls Flying Our very own Bret Hart has been working on remaking the Walls Flying map, and he's made some great progress! Take a look for yourself: Flame Tank Concept JeepRubi will be tackling the Flame Tank in the coming weeks, and he's already got a concept ready for the high poly! Watch out. Scorpion Hunters map! You saw it in our last trailer, and you liked it. We've decided to remake the first level of C&C Renegade as a multiplayer map, with GDI and Nod bases, ready for the upcoming war. Zixxer's done an excellent job! HUD System Havoc89 and Warlord have been working on the new Heads Up Display system. Although we had already remade C&C Renegade's, we at Renegade X decided to go to the next level... X! It's got all the game information you had in the original and more, including mine count information, structure status, vehicle count, and much more, all at your fingertips. It's still a work in progress, but check it out! Vote for RENEGADE X! I'd just like to give a reminder that the Mod DB voting for 'Mod of the Year' ends on February 2nd. If you haven't voted in Phase 2 yet (note! Different from phase 1 voting! Make sure you have voted), then here is the mods to vote for.

description: You guys at Renegade X never cease to amaze me. The walls flying looks much better than the original, it has more to look at like the paths leading into each base as opposed to the original map where its just a plain wall surrounding the base. The Light tank looks awsome. very well made and skinned. Like most people have said the building health bars on the hud will significantly change the game play. Its a cool feature and I like it but its different from Renegade.

description: Hey all, We had an internal discussion when we were very early in the development stage of this hud about additional information and server side options so let me fill you in on those discussions. We did decide that we will have the option of disabling all of the new items in the hud with a click of a button at the player's will to simply switch back to a classic layout. Ofcourse that brought up the discussion about "well it wouldnt be fair if someone wanted to use classic style and other wanted to use the full hud". So we decided that it will be upto the server admin to select which new features of the hud they want to globally disable so that none of the player can view them. However all the other info in ren which was accessible with the "J", "K" and "L" keys will still be avaliable. All of the new info that is in this new hud minus the mine count and vehicle count were already avaliable to any player to view at any time. They even had the info on the enemy structure status. We simply decided to make that information more easy to view without having to push and hold a button to view them while that pauses all of the player's actions. Also some of the new huds that are made for the original ren have already intigrated the mine count system which in my opinion is a great new addition. Its a small enough detail which allows you to miss any change if you're not paying attention to that detail. Its simply the same process with this new hud. I hope that clears everything up.

description: Havoc89 summed it what I wanted to say, the extra information on the HUD will be up to the server host, and you will be able to toggle it on and off whenever. Though I just wanted to say, what extra information are you really getting? In Renegade, you were also able to check the health of buildings, mine limits and vehicle limits. The only difference was, to see your buildings' health you had to hold K, or to see the mine limits you had to type in a command for most servers. All that really just got in the way of the gameplay. The new HUD does not display more information, but rather the same information and much more easily accessed. Though again, if you really have a problem with that, then have the option off on your server. It's that easy.

description: As luv said, I knew there'd be a shitstorm, but jesus christ guys, read his post; he said it could be disabled on the server side. EDIT: On second thought, would it be possible to compromise? Maybe only change the icon from green, to yellow, and then to red to show the relative health of the building? That way, if someone's attacking a building and nobody's paying attention to it, they can't just simply watch the building bar trickle down; they won't notice until the building has already lost a large portion of its health. I don't know though, it's just a thought seeing as this seems to upset some people. And honestly, I have to agree... the whole building bars thing could change some tactics slightly. As for the mine count, well I have no idea what to do about that...

description: Question: In the final version, you wont be able to see the enemy structures, correct? If so, keep it that way. It's better. Also, this wont have any effects on the gameplay of Renegade other than possibly speeding the gameplay up about .5 seconds from the norm. Also, you say you can toggle the extra info on and off between "Classic HUD" and the new HUD. Is "Classic HUD" that same HUD without all the extra features? Or is it the remake of the Renegade style HUD that you already showed us all those months ago?

Having an opinion is all fine and well. Whatever. Nobody cares if you simply have an opinion on a feature, good or bad, but it starts to become annoying when it's so fucking overblown like this whole HUD debate has become. It's pretty bad when you see the screenshot of the expanded HUD and you can just tell that people are going to throw a fucking fit about it. THAT'S when it becomes more than just expressing an opinion and becomes incessant, pointless bitching, especially over such an insignificant feature.

description: We're remaking Renegade and the Renegade gameplay with maybe a +/- 5% variable (maybe 10%) of things that are different. These are different due to either 1) Engine differences between UE3 and w3d, such as wheeled vehicles like the Humvee having a turn radius that acts like a real vehicle as opposed to either off or on turning as in Renegade or 2) Things that were broken in Renegade or things we think could be improved while still staying close to Renegade, such as the MRLS turret not rotating (By default it will turn but we'll make a toggle you can turn off and on so it is frozen in place, letting you fire around corners or behind you). Here are a few (but not all) changes we think are useful, most of which are just small tweaks (like vehicle owner labels): *Built-in voice communication (Okay that's in UT3 already ) Now everyone can talk which is faster than typing (if they have a mic), and they don't need 3rd party software like Teamspeak (we also have plans for ways to enhance this communication). *MCT now shows actual info about a building (Like Bar MCT shows teammmates and what classes they are, WF shows what vehicles are on your team and in use, etc) *Queuing of vehicles. Instead of waiting at a PT for the factory to be available, you can buy a tank (only 1 queue spot per person at a time to prevent 1 guy hogging the entire queue by spamming) and tanks will be built in the order that people paid for them. Tanks will be locked to whoever bought it for X seconds and a text PM will be sent to the player when their particular tank has been built. This lets you do other stuff while waiting for your tank to be built such as switching classes, or if you purchased from the other side of the base, you can walk to the factory while it is queued up. *Also empty tanks will have a hovering text label of who owns it or if noone owns it, who was the last driver for X seconds, hopefully helps a little with accidental team theft. (Of course that won't stop the asshole who stea…

Nopol, yeah, it's their mod, but if they're trying to mimic Renegades gameplay (which they've stated before) then you'd expect that feature not to be there. Regardless, the progress on the mod is amazing (as I've said as well,) but shit guys, people are allowed to disagree on something, and you don't need to act like a dumbass because of it. I get easily pissed off when people are making such huge deals over little things. Aren't I'm allowed to disagree with people who disagree? Quote: Calm down broseph. Nobody other than you is acting like this is the end of the world. It's just a minor change that's kind of lame and has a barely noticeable effect on the gameplay. Does not kill the entire game, just has an effect. Did you even read my post?

description: Personally I think it's no huge deal (but I acknowledge that it has an *effect* on gameplay), and am just seeing people saying "Well I'm a little disappointed you included this but oh well." That doesn't qualify as a shitstorm in my opinion, and it wasn't a shitstorm until Bluethen raged about it. Yeah, I did read your post. You blew it out of proportion and essentially brought the argument from another thread into this one.

description: A Renegade X singleplayer campaign would be great, but our current priorities are on multiplayer - both through remaking C&C Renegade and improving on it - by means of patches, new features, new game modes, etc. We'd only start on a singleplayer after our final version is perfected and if the team still has some fight left in it.

From what I've seen and who I've met while making this mod, the majority of those who will play Renegade X are either Renegade players, former Renegade players, or people who generally know the game, so it should not be a problem.

description: R315r4z0r wrote on Tue, 03 February 2009 21:07 Having the said features or not does not make or break Renegade's gameplay. It is exactly the same either way. It just looks different and speeds up personal information by .5 seconds. That does nothing in terms of changing gameplay. They are still mimicking it perfectly. They are just giving people more options in order to make the mod better received as well as give it more of a hook and combustibility. Please stop presenting this as a fact. Until someone has proven or disproved it does not change gameplay, it is an opinion. And opinions are personal. And on this matter I think it is indeed an change in gameplay, and in my opinion, not for the better. Obviously you have a different opinion. Which is ok by me, but please don't flame people for having an opinion. I know I'll turn the advanced HUD off on my server, and you can turn it on in your if you please.

description: First of all, no it isn't an opinion. An opinion is a personal outlook on a specific situational or question. Something that I think and does nothing towards any actual results in the long run. A fact is something that has information or some physical proof that backs it up. I don't think it will have no noticeable impact on gameplay, I know it wont. It's not my opinion, it's a fact. I respect your position on whether or not you prefer the old way or the new way. I'm just trying to correct some of the facts that people on your side of the argument are making. So, yes I said I was saying a fact, not an opinion. So what's backing that statement up? 1. All information is given to each player, regardless of how they are getting it, they will always have a way to get the information. 2. Someone knowing some information and someone acting on that information are two different things. If you get information slightly faster at a convenience, your actions revolving around that information will not become any quicker, nor will your thought process be changed or disrupted. The only difference is, like I said, would be that you will start acting slightly faster. (The difference in time between the time it takes you to look at your HUD information (H) and your 'K' status screen (K) would be equal to the amount of time you save (T).. or to put it into an equation: K - H = T. So, for example: Let's say it takes you .5 seconds to read the building bar and assess the information. [H] If you were to use the status screen, it would of taken you 2 seconds (for the sake of argument, as it may take you faster than that) [K] So: K - H = T 2 - .5 = 1.5 seconds saved. Thus increasing your game speed by 1.5 seconds. Now that's only when there are structures under attack, the rest of the game play remains completely untouched. So, unless I'm missing some detail, can you explain to me your reasoning behind how 1.5 seconds will tarnish the game play? Second of all, I haven't flamed anyone. The …
