grab it from http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/rentools/

Changes in 3.1.1:
A fix for the bullet hole/decal flicker/z fighting on ATI cards
A proper working fix for the version mismatch problem
A fix for various crashes including one caused on loading C&C_Last_Stand and one caused when a savedgame I have is loaded. If you were geting "single player" crashes on loading (either a savedgame or a level), this should make them go away.
Further post process improvements (be sure to use the new postprocess.sdb file and if you are building your own the new pp_combineupscale8.fx file)
A fix for the alt-tab crash (if you still get alt-tab crashes, post and I will see what I can do)
A fix for the crash preventing the dll from running on the FDS

Oh and for those wanting an installer, SaberHawk is working on one for 3.1.1 which should be available soon.

You mean 3.1.2 or 3.2 Smile

I appreciate your work you do for Renegade, even if many people here do not do that.

Sorry...

I just tried to play with scripts 3.1.1.

Joined an empty server, minimized the game while in gameplay pending state -> CRASH !

Note: It didn't crash with 3.1.0

I have just uploaded a 3.1.2 release, it fixes an alt-tab crash introduced in 3.1.1 and makes the dll work on the server again.

I already have a working NSIS installer for BRenBot 1.50 which could be altered slightly to install client side scripts if you want it.. all you need to do is change the registry key it looks up from the FDS one to the Client one (or add both)


And 3.1.2 still crashes on alt-tab... When you click to maximise again from taskbar the screen turns brighter for a moment, then pauses, and then Renegade just closes...

This time it had a crashdump though (First time it's ever given one with this)

I get a crash when I alt-tab and then want to go back to renegade. It didn't happen in 3.0, though 3.0 had that graphics flicker bug and also that bullethole bug. They have been fixed in 3.1.1. Now if just that crash bug gets fixed it'd be perfect for a while. Goin back to 2.9 (has none of these bugs)

EDIT: I see 3.1.2 now after I refreshed that SF page? Does that fix it?

EDIT2: Nice, they're all fixed in 3.1.2, good job jonwil Thumbs Up

ok, firstly, I already have an installer (or rather SaberHawk does). He needs to update it to 3.1.2 and upload it.
As for danpaul88 and that crash, what specs do you have?
There is a known serious bug with xfire and scripts.dll 3.x, try disabling xfire and see what happens.
Other than that, no clue.
Does it happen every time you alt-tab?

Anyone else still experiencing alt-tab crashing with 3.1.2?

The alt-tab crash still occurred even with Xfire turned off, so it's not caused by that. So far it has happened every time I have tried to alt-tab.

System specs;
Pentium 4 3.0ghz +HT
1024mb RAM
Radeon 9800se 128mb

Software;
Catalyst Control Center 1.2.2243.38605
Graphics Driver Version: 8.231.0.0
DirectX December 06 redist



EDIT: Also attached a crash-dump from when I tried it with xfire turned off, incase it helps at all.

I get a crash in Renegade sometimes when logging into XWIS, or just opening Renegade. Crashdump affixed.

I am not crashing but I am getting this weird effect:
http://s27.photobucket.com/albums/c175/r315razor/Stuff/?action=view&current= game22007-01-0715-04-23-64.flv

I apologize for the off sound and the frozen first 5 seconds. It didn't record properly.

But what you should notice is the scrolling sun glare. It also happens on some other lights on other maps. Like street lights in m07 or the white/red lights on the back of an orca or apache.

I have:
Pentium 4 CPU 2.0 GHz
1.24GB RAM

My Graphics card is an ATI Radeon 9550.

danpaul: PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DON'T INCLUDE THE SAMPLE SHADERS.SDB. It only really works right for one map and is included as an example for that specific reason. There is no reason for any regular client to include that file in their install as they will see glitches in most maps.

yeah, but as me and jonwil worked out, its postprocess.sdb causing the alt-tab crashes, NOT shaders.sdb Razz

http://4camp.net/scripts312.exe for installer. This installer will update Direct3D if it determines that you don't have it properly update and also handles installing on a 'fresh' install of Renegade that has been properly patched.

danpaul: Still shouldn't be included because of "wierd graphics" glitches that people are reporting.

cmatt42, there is a known issue with xfire and 3.x, you will need to stop using xfire (or at least the "xfire inside renegade" part) until it is solved by the xfire team.

xfire and renegade play quite nicely together here...

And saberhawk: I already updated the downloads on my site to not include the shaders.sdb file.


EDIT: I notice you didn't include sdbedit.exe or keycfg.exe in your installer, any particular reason behind this? It would be easy to add an extra section under the bloom section to install them Smile

Wow... Even thought I had the exact same files in my Renegade folder, the bloom never worked, but I use the installer and it defiantly does now:
index.php?t=getfile&id=2298&private=0
index.php?t=getfile&id=2299&private=0
Although the sun does get rather huge with it, will this be changed later?

All I am having problems with slowly scrolling lens flares.
I am using a computer with a Nvidia Geforce FX 5200.

Oh wait, no one ever said to put postprocess in the data folder, that explains why it never worked.
