Hello everyone,

late but here it is; the second public beta of RenHawk (former renvis). RenHawk is watching anything that moves in a renegade game - just like a real hawk.


http://www.blackhand-studios.org/renhawk/renhawk_beta2/screeny_ beta2_main.jpg


Click on the picture above to see five new replays and many new features !

New features in the second beta

Thats why you had to wait so long!
  • New GUI
  • Chats !
  • Mines, Timed C4 + Beacons are displayed
  • Fireworks: Timed C4 explodes, Vehicles explode, Nukes & Ions hit
  • Soldier vs Soldier fights
  • Standart map backgroundss are rendered with orthogonal projection (thX to SK)
  • Map backgrounds also include tunnels now (thX to grey)
  • "Show all player positions in game" feature
  • Much smaller log files
  • More maps
  • Smoother animations
  • Many, many Bug fixes

Known bugs

Why RenHawk is still called "beta".

  • Chat lines which contain special chars (like german umlaute) are not displayed correctly currently
  • C4 attached to vehicles does not move when the vehicle moves - it just remains on the ground
  • When zooming in, text & mouse pointer are also "zoomed"
  • Stop & rewind button still sometimes confuse the replay
  • Ion Canon strikes badly need an upnicing

To Do

Some more features are planned for the next versions
  • crates
  • zoom,
  • even better GUI,
  • more maps,
  • live view support (with configurable delay),
  • score, money, game statistics and much more.


Hope you like it ! If you find any bugs or have any questions - just post them here. Enthusiastic remarcs will also be welcome Smile

Nothing is impossible, somethings just requires alot of time.

"Impossible" things done so far together with SK:

RenRem Protocol - Custom Checksum/Encryption
HL2 FileSystem replacement
C&C95 Multiplayer under XP with up to 4 players

Yes you are right - I am adding tunnles one by one. Sometimes tricky to make sure they look good and dont confuse to much.

just in watching the previews, I've noticed that the buildings health does not decrease as it is hit, and remains at full after the building is destroyed.

edit: hmmm, watched the canyon one, and the building hit points worked properly in it.

They all worked right for me but the maps look off centered

Also I just thought of this in Yuri's Revenge you can see a teaser for Renegade. At the beginning you see the GDI base from mission two from the same perspective as Renhawk is this the look you are going for this look do you even have YR or have seen this yet?

@warranto: Very odd .. I'll look into it. There seems to be another problem with nukes as well.

@dsi1: No, sadly not.

@AmunRa: Why - thank you Smile I'll try to get it finished asap, but it will take some more time. Expect a new beta in about 10 days ...

Its already is a great tool and will be even better when it is realeased. but what about clanwars. i could be a really bad cheat in cw's. you going to have some sort of protection so it cant be watched live while a cw is in progress. i understand there is live gave footage on it?

There will be live footage but the host choses how long until people can see the footage like 10 seconds or 2 min. and even if there will be live footage.

Very cool! I think you mentioned this, but the fastward and rewind buttons could use some TLC...very hard to control the game play with them.

Also, who won and overall scores displayed for each team during game play would be nice.

Not everything is as it appears

very cool, can't wait for the final version!

I would like to make a suggestion though. Perhaps this would be nice if the only way you could get Renhawk (I still think Renvis was better) is with RG 1.04 and/or CP2 as incentive to download and use them.

Sorry for the delay. I had a bad week, including several dentist sessions, which were as unplaned as unpleasent. I had no big motivation to do much beside feeling sorry for myself during that time ...

PS: Money & Score are finished now and I started with Crates. Once those are done, I'll publish a new beta, hopefuly even with downloadable stuff (mainly for server owners).
