Renegade seems to adapt its own set of configuration settings, and because of that I am stuck at 640x400 resolution and windowed mode. The config screen popped up when I ran Renegade a moment ago, I welcomed the opportunity to change my view to windowed mode because I had turned V-Sync off in the BHS.dll settings. Now, however, the config screen won't pop up again, and the accessible one from the start menu doesn't seem to affect the game at all. How can I change the config settings through RenGuard again?\

Thanks

If your on Vista right click the one in the start menu and choose run as Administator. The only reason it popped up was because Renegade did not properly load the previous time it was run.

I already always run as Administrator so it won't make a difference for me

Yes, but you have to right click the program and run as administrator, or the settings dont get applied.

In Windows Vista even on an admin account programs still run in non-admin mode unless you tell them otherwise.

Go to wherever your renegade directory is located and look for "WWConfig.exe" (without "") if u are talking bout finding the config for renegade for windowed mode and the resolution etc..

Thats the config I've been talking about all time. I can't get it to work unless it pops up after I press the "Renegade" button in the RenGuard screen but it won't pop up anymore.

Go to C:\westwood\renegade\

Then find "wwconfig.exe"

Right click - properties - XP SP2 compatability and admin mode

Ok

Run it, change settings.

Run renegade.

Registry editor!!!

Start > regedit (or however you get into the registry in Vista)

HKLM > Software > Westwood > Renegade > Render

Change;

RenderDeviceWindowed to 0
RenderDeviceWidth to 1024 (This and the next one is the screen resolution, so if you want 800 X 600, use that instead)
RenderDeviceDepth to 768

That will fix most of your problems. You should be able to work out the rest, should you wish to change them.

I've attached my copy of this registry branch for you, it will change it to using;

1024 X 768 32 bit colour, 16 bit textures, non-windowed. A side effect will be that Renegade will think you're using a Radeon X1650, which you probably aren't.

Moved to the proper forum. This has nothing to do with RenGuard and everything to do with Renegade.

Let's blame your mom Rocked Over

When people ask me "Plz" just because it's shorter than "Please" I feel perfectly justified to answer "No" because it's shorter then "Yes"

Programming is like sex: one mistake and you have to support it for the rest of your life

Yeah, just go download what I put up there, hopefully that will let you use the normal config again (I'm going to guess that the registry somehow got damaged - checked for malware?)

I am not going to spend hours adjusting it to everyone's problems. heh,
