Tried re-registering it? All the servers have moved since last year and not all were transferred.

Well, since last year EA shut WOL (Westwood Online) down. Two weeks later XWIS (XCC, WOL, IRC Server) got to host them and have been doing so ever since.

To recreate an account just type it into the login screen with a password and if it's not already taken it will be created and you will arrive at the server listing. If that one is already taken, the serverlist will be blank. If each channel in the server list is greyed out you need the latest patch for Renegade (1.037) which you can get around the web.

Little word of warning. If you remove nicknames from XWIS you cannot re-register them.

Of course, because the passwords changed, "Delete" your nicks through Renegade (this will delete them on your PC only). Then RE-LOGIN with them with the new password.

You will need to remove them from the registry. Can't remember where to go from the top of my head but it's under network or wol or something like that.

Oh and darkknight, take a look at my second post.

On the login menu when your password comes up hit "delete account" And it will erase that automatic set password(will not delete your account)

Might be best going to strike team.net and asking them since they now host the XWIS servers.
