As the title says, my Command and Conquer Renegade (on C&C first decade) won't do anything when I try to open it whilst running my FDS at the same time. It produces a loading cursor when I click on Renegade and then stops loading about 2 seconds after clicking on it.
Can anyone help me with this i.e. Any suggestions/FACTS?
Here's a print screen of Brenbot and Renegade Master Server up and running at the same time if it helps you:

No I mean the WOL Games List.
EDIT: I just noticed that it disconnects me from WOL with the server running, maybe, just maybe, that's why my server doesn't appear in the list..... Although I don't know why it would disconnect me - It could be because I installed a different server.dat file which Crimson suggested on another forum to allow you to join your own game, which I thought might be useful.
Would the WOLProxy 1.1 sticky thread's instructions about changing the host file help at all?

By the 'game username' do you mean the game name?
This is what's in my svrcfg_cnc.ini file as the game name:
; The name of the server as it appears in the lobby list. This has a limit of
; 25 characters in GameSpy mode.
;
bGameTitle = Goonhaven's AOW Server
The game title contains my username but it isn't just my username, does it have an effect if it has any part of the title with your name in it?
OR is this the game username (in server.ini):
; Nickname =
;
; This is the Westwood Online nickname you will use when logging into the
; Westwood Online matchmaking system. You can use a nickname from a previous
; Westwood Studios game or apply for a new one by copying the following line
; and pasting it into your web browsers address window
;
; http://register.westwood.com
Nickname = Goonhaven
Nvm... I found out that it's the one in server.ini and changed it... Now my game works just fine! Apart from the GAME PENDING screen... But I believe I saw a thread on that somewhere.

I had the same problem then i thought well i I'll just try and load ren first see what happens. Works fine that way. You don't need to modify any files.
yes i know this is old, someone just showed this to me. sorry didnt look at the date before i replied.
