C&C: Renegade --> Dying since 2003™, resurrected in 2024!
Mind keeping us updated? I think you guys can understand our frustration in keeping us in the dark for this long. How much of this: http://www.renegadeforums.com/index.php?t=msg&th=29329&start=0&rid=2 3179 is done, and how much are you still working on or scratched out? Is it REALLY only the launcher that is being worked on or what? It'd be nice for one big update to come (Having waited this long). So, please, just give us one so we can atleast know what to expect, and know if we should get our hopes up or not.
Last update I read was EWD saying they got a beta ready but had some organisational problems to solve before its release.

i love renegade and will play it to the end but i feel like that will come before the release of this patch
hold me
Bump...before Christmas of THIS YEAR please?
Heres a clue: It will be released when it's ready to be released. There has been a HUGE amount of work gone into this and it would be unfair to everyone involved to release something which is buggy and unstable and ends up getting rejected by the community. Hence we won't be releasing anything until we are happy it is ready for releasing and everything that can be tested has been tested.

Though it doesn't really answer the initial question in the first post: HaTe wrote on Mon, 09 August 2010 16:09 Mind keeping us updated? I think you guys can understand our frustration in keeping us in the dark for this long. We are not asking for a release date. We would just like to see some updates. What are you guys working on? What is going on? Involve the community, even if the information given might not interest all of us. It would give us the feeling of "not being in the dark". Thanks for understanding.
It's rather unfair that many many people are not playing this game anymore, so won't even get to see the update....because of the long ass time it's taking. As lion said, I'm not really looking for a date so much as I am just a general update. In my experience pretty much all patches like this come with a readme explaining what has been fixed, changed, edited, and etc. If you haven't started that yet, then why not start it here? If you have, then why not just paste portions of it here? Some sort of checklist or answers at all would be appreciated. Most of the time TT is brought up in Renegade games, it turns in to people saying that it will never be released...and this is why. No updates on a project that has been going for this long will make people lose hope, and could cause some people to stop playing in general. Why not just tell us? I'm almost certain that every single one of the TT members isn't working on it every time they come onto the computer...so why not just make a list for us...such as the original list on what TT was going to work on, with a checklist? It'd be a good place to start, wouldn't you think?
0x90 has been hard at work apparently he updated his junk again
liquidv2 wrote on Sun, 10 October 2010 00:35 0x90 has been hard at work apparently he updated his junk again what is that supposed to mean? i dont want to start any kind of flamewar, please let us keep this objective but i have to say: i just added some new superficial features in the meantime. the "hack" is like before... i never spent just a single second to make it stealth/undetected or whatever. (btw i dont get how the new rr now detects the new rgh, since it was never "undetected" anyways ) like i already stated in another thread: this is just about the lack of ANY countermeasures. i promised some years ago to NOT hack into the official anticheat stuff (renguard, for the time being) anymore and i still live and will live up to that promise. kthnxbye
i deslike you
Without going into any details, I can say that the #1 thing holding up 4.0 right now is that the lead programmers on our team (myself included) all have very little (if any) time to devote to 4.0 due to real life (in my case I have a full time job)
I got tired of waiting for the tt patch a while ago. So I just focus on life while checking back every once and a while. I'd really like to see a change list too. Also would like to know if the image message boxe. From apb will be included as well as determining what the user selected.
All features APB is using are available in scripts 4.0 if you support those things in a mod (i.e. with the right scripts and other settings)

Definitely real life takes priority. While I hope not, this does somewhat hints at a possibility that the TT patch may never get released or would progress at a very slow rate. Eitherway, we will keep playing and hang on.
Reset of RP2 team has quit and moved on to either WoW or minecraft, I am the only one that is left, and everyone knows I will never be done with Renegade. Moreover, I no longer see any reason for TT team to rush out a release any more; I think the players left in the community are probably diehard fans that might not quit until they die, so it is not like we risk losing anything anymore.

We only needed the anti-cheat patch.(would it also take so long?) But you guys didnt listen to the community. pffffffffffffffffffffffffffff BUT thnx for all the effort u guys are spending to the TT patch.

The anti-cheat bits of the patch wouldn't have been POSSIBLE without all the bug fixing, hack removal and general cleanup we have done to 4.0
I bet more old players would play this game if 4.0 was released, though.
Tunaman wrote on Fri, 15 October 2010 06:09 I bet more old players would play this game if 4.0 was released, though. I will come back to play if this patch ever comes out.
Yeah, me too. I come back to check once in a while to see if anything important has happened(like TT patch ).
Tunaman wrote on Fri, 15 October 2010 22:59 Yeah, me too. I come back to check once in a while to see if anything important has happened(like TT patch ). I rarely play anymore either, partially because some players I am almost positive cheat, but can't I prove it at all...which pisses me off. TT patch should separate the legit from the cheaters quite quick imo. Just sad that it's taking this long for it to even be released.
I hope this patch does do what it says on the tin because it'd be annoying if it doesn't despite after waiting for such a long time. @T0RN - I didn't even know you were alive!

Eh, I honestly thought that by this time that the patch would be released. Ren was basically the only game that I played on PC, and I loved it. I can't really see myself coming back to it, though, even whenever this patch is released. Too big on consoles now. With Black-ops coming out and that hitting the PCL, probably be heading on that. I'm hoping this patch comes out before Christmas this year, though. Because I would like to play Ren at least one more time with no cheaters. Just going to keep my hopes up though.
Consoles suck for FPS gaming, dude. The only reason they're as prevalent on consoles are they are is because of the insane amount of pirating that occurs with PC games. You should definitely play Renegade again when 4.0 is out. Atleast APB/Reborn.
GEORGE ZIMMER wrote on Wed, 20 October 2010 14:25 You should definitely play Renegade again when 4.0 is out. Atleast APB/Reborn. No, the mods might be fun to play, but Renegade with scripts 4.0 should be everyones main game p.s: the only reason consoles are even relevant is pure economics, many people are broke and can't afford a $1500 gaming rig, but they can afford a xbox360 for $299.
I can prirate consol games just as well as I can pirate pc games. Also some games are worth paying there programmers. Hence I bought reach he second it was released.

Atleast APB/Reborn. I may, and you are a bit right. Though, some people say that it takes me skill to play on consoles than PCs, and the other way around. But I'm not one to judge, being a player of both I do prefer consoles more. Mainly being that the competive players are a lot more wide-spread in consoles that PCs. I may end up playing Ren again. Even whenever the patch comes out, though it won't be near as much as I used to play. But, has anyone played Starcraft 2 though? It's on the MLG pro circuit and it's getting a lot of hype. Never played it but I might give it a try before Black-ops comes out.
Sorry for double post, but pirating consoles games is a lot harder to do than pirating PC games. To even be able to play pirated games on xbox, you have to have a flashed xbox360, which isn't to common to come across nowadays. As for PS3, I'm not sure how it works on that console. But, for 360 it's not too simple.
Until recently there were no hacks at all for the PS3 to enable running pirated games. However Sony pissed off the Linux community when they removed the Other OS option and they promptly started working on ways of hacking the console. There have been some limited successes, but I don't think they have found a way to easily enable it to run pirated games yet. Theres a lesson in this for Sony: Don't piss off Linux users!

Still, the PS3 isn't giving up without a fight and the length of time the hacks are taking goes to show just how secure it really is. The USB jailbreak was the only real success in getting it to run pirated games, but don't count on getting one. Sony siezed all of the devices thanks to a court order and has since patched the exploit. http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2010/08/court-halts-ps-jailbreak-sales-gives- sony-control-of-inventory.ars http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2010/09/sony-releases-mandatory-ps3-update-in -response-to-jailbreak.ars
Wow.. If only Microsoft was this strict on everything. They have cracked down a lot in the past months, but the 10th lobbies in MW2 and other crap, hacking leaderboards mainly, was extremely ridiculous. The top 100,000 (maybe more) on the leaderboards on the 360 aren't legit. Either they are hackers or people that paid the hackers to get them up there. That is one thing that I do like about the PS3, though. No hackers.
Because of renegade i got bored playing other games, i tried call of duty modern warfare 2 it just sucks killing respawning killing respawning.... damn rennie

To be perfectly honest, ALL of the CoD series games I have played feel like that to me too. I got bored of being headshotted within 15 seconds of spawning for the entire duration of a map so I stopped playing CoD online. The single player was fun in the earlier games in the series, I have not played the most recent ones as they seem to want to bring out a new version every few months and charge astronomical amounts of money for them....
EmpireJBL wrote on Thu, 21 October 2010 08:11 Because of renegade i got bored playing other games, i tried call of duty modern warfare 2 it just sucks killing respawning killing respawning.... damn rennie I have to agree with this and it happens to me with CSS also, I just don't see any fun in killing, killing, and killing some more. That is why I like Renegade, Team Fortress 2, and Killing Floor (not as the title suggests, you are not constantly killing or killing floors for that matter ).

It doesn't matter how many perks or different guns they throw into the game- ultimately it remains the same, it's just kill/respawn/kill. With the exception of maybe a few modes no one ever plays anyway. Once black ops comes out CoD4 will be pretty in the same boat as Renegade- and it will die alot quicker than Ren will. Why? Because Ren is an actually fun and strategic game (just with some bugs and glitches, that will be fixed with TT), not GRENADE GRENADE GRENADE RESPAWN GRENADE GRENADE
@PS3, its totally hackable currently (easily loads .iso files off an external hdd) with only a softmod (small app needs to be installed on the ps3). Sony has been patching the exploit methods with new firmwires, but then they just discover a new exploit method. @CoD4, its already dead practically, no good US based 24/7 TDM servers (as in pubs, not a good sign). @TT, was holding on to this link as im not sure if im allowed to post it (and its not an update but just some more info and screenshots): http://www.tiberiantechnologies.org
If you played CoD4 or MW2 competitively, and not just pubs, then it's a lot more than kill/respawn/kill... It's all about teamwork, and that's why I love CoD. Yeah, you do die quick, too but there is such a huge skillgap in CoD, too. So competitive play is much more than just killing and respawning. You should go watch some of the videos on the people playing in the mlg events. Sadly, because of people being able to mod the xbox 360's and cheat, the PCL is only on the PS3 right now.

On the other hand, it's not exactly hidden either... if it wasn't intended for public viewing yet a dummy index.html page could have been put in the directory to stop people casually entering the domain name and finding it.

No, but the entire domainname hadn't been announced either, so chances of someone actually finding it where rather slim. Troop didn't find it, he got the link from I guess JW.

We were very well aware that it wasn't protected or anything. It's just not finished, so don't expect anything of it at this moment.

Haha. I love you Tiesto! Your suggestion is believable, but for ultimate effect it has to be your whole weight in urine before you will proceed to lose weight.
I think it would be more effective to eat your own poo if you want to lose weight. Might only be not so healthy, so use this suggestion at your own risk.
