Why come to a "renegade" site and post if you think it's all lame?
That map was a testing ground for a lot of things. None of it was ever a Renegade 2 base. Nobody ever claimed it was except outsiders who don't know the scoup anyway. It was made by two of us in an unreal type approach to see what the engine could handle.
Speculation gets you nowhere.

I agree Renegade looked quite dated when it came out. I had nothing to do with the development going on and on and on until it did look stale.
That you think it looked lame is your opinion but don't sit there and tell me what Westwood was going to do if they made Ren 2... I was a lead on that beast and I know they were not going to use a new engine. You have no idea what that engine was capable of with new hardware and cards. That "lame" map you saw was drawing well over 300k polys in a view. Renegade 1 had us limited beyond belief when we were developing it because it was 1998. You know... do the math. 7 years ago. Any idea how much tech changes in 6 months?
I can't change your mind obviously but dont compare it to new shit.

Some of the 3d artists in this community can create some of those effects already with the current renegade.
Renegade 2 wasn't going to be anything special that would tempt anyone to part with their money, thats why it wasn't made.
If you want to see stuff like that look at the stuff we are making as far as I can tell Renagede 2 would of mainly looked better by useing the extra 'power' the average user would have from the purchase of new better computers.

Interesting assertion. From what phlakaton has said, what everyone refers to as "Renegade 2" was merely an engine test. Very few gameplay details have been revealed about the game itself.
