No RenGuard still does not work for Windows 2k and/or Windows XP 64Bit.

What's 'soon' in days, weeks, months, years?

I mean.... the Wiki says:

Quote:

It's been a very long time since we've had a RenGuard update for you. However, I am happy to announce (on behalf of the rest of BlackHand Studios) that RenGuard 1.04 is nearing completion. In fact, we are so close that we are hereby announcing the first private RenGuard 1.04 beta test in ONE WEEK.

- Posted there on Oct. 31 2005 - almost a year ago^^

Well, the problem is that I'm using WinX64 only and w/o a working RG version I can't even join most of the servers.

With the release of Windows Vista I assume that many users will install the 64bit version of it if their hardware is capable (all versions of Vista will be on the same DVD so there won't be as much of a problem getting the Vista64 version as it was or XP64)

Yes, with all due respect to the developers, I do think you should hurry up a bit. Rocked Over

If RenGuard worked on Vista x64 edition (RC1) then I would probably have completely switched over to Vista from XP already, Dont Get It

Maybe because it is going to happen,
maybe because it is difficult to plan a date.
Maybe because some people will get mad at you when you do not make it in your deadline.
Maybe because developers would feel the need to make that date, and will produce less good code.
I bet I can come up with a lot of other reasons. Just learn not to ask for release dates, noone likes to give them.

I have to agree that it should be hurried on a bit, that's not my point, but I do think people should not ask for release dates all the time. At most you can say "I hope it will be out soon" or something, that feels nicer than "when will it be done". Just my opinion..

"soon" in a business that get paid to do work every day may mean a month or so. (Unofficial definition, of course)

But expand that to those who work on it in their spare time, around normal lives. If all they have is a few hours a week to work on it, around their real lives, "soon" could be longer than that.

I've found the word soon to mean moreso nearness to completion, not length of time.

I'm just wondering what's so difficult in replacing a 16bit call with a 32bit one?
I mean: If the problem is known and it's just this call that is preventing RG from working in a x64 environment...
I think everyone would even be happy if it was a, let's say RG1.03b or 1.03x64 version and not a full 1.04 release.

The 64 bit problem is not a problem in RenGuard itself, but in the software used to package RenGuard, which also causes the infamous svkp problem.

RenGuard 1.04 will use different software, which does not have these problems.

They collected donations so BHS could get different software to package the new RG (1.04). It was a decent amount and it only took a few days to get it. Fast forward to almost a year later when those people who donated get a "soon" and "I can't talk about that" for their troubles.

Yes, that's correct the amount was $150 and was asked for over 1 year ago, and yet no evidence they didn't blow it at the pub.

I'd be happy to donate if they want to show some evidence, and give us a reason to donate.
E.g beta access or something as an incentive.

That beer tasted double as good because you guys paid for it! Sarcasm

Noone was forced to donate, everyone that did knows that the money was well spent. You didn't donate so I guess you have no reason to complain at the first place.

The donations were used to purchase a license for the new packer software. RG 1.04 itself isn't out yet because a certain BHS member refuses to finish his work on a module that everyone else on the team is waiting and depending on to finish their parts.

Well, once everyone starts using Vista (most likely x64, but apparently RG doesn't work on the 32bit version either) either you'll have to release 1.04 or there'll be a lot less RG users.
As-is, I'm fed up of RG not realising I've joined a "RenGuard Protected Server", so I've scrapped it for the time being. Angry

The simplest solution is, pack the RG 1.031 with the NEW protection software and release it. Recompile RG on a x64 system and do that same thing above. Then most of the problem solved. No more SVKP virus alert, no more x64 issue. Thumbs Up

Thanks blazer for the xwisp! My dream comes true!

"refuse to finish" means what? would there be a solution? would there be someone in charge? if BHS needs pizza, I'm sure donation will come from a bunch of RG players who have spent multi-ks on upgrading their machines and OSs.

it's just so frustrated to be rejected from most of the servers just because you are using something better.
