Someone already tested, if Renegade-Game and the Modding-Tools work together with Windows 7 (Beta)?

Would like to update my OS to Win7 64 bit after release...

It works, has issues with remembering save/load paths but other than that it works perfectly fine.

What Jerad said.

I've been running the Ren mod tools on Windows 7 beta since it came out, and I haven't had any problems yet.

Aside from the shitty constant crashing of level edit, I assume?

Yes, Leveledit has always been shitty. Windows 7 did not change that.

Use Regedit, I'm sure its saving it in the program's registry if anywhere.

Are you sure its crashing because of the Render device and not some setting or damaged presets in your mod?

Does it crash when you make a new one?
If it does give us a pic of your level editor folder... sometimes this helps us see a problem.

Who knows, maybe something running it the background was doing it, I know renegade used to always crash for me if Internet Explorer was running at the same time.

What comparability settings do you have on this thing, and what OS are you running (you might have said earlier), also, I still want a pick of the RenegadePublicTools/Leveledit folder contents, just to be on the same side and make sure this isn't something super obvious that we are looking over.

oh i think it's the compatibility settings Very Happy and again. it works.. i din't have to bother posting, but yesterday it just kept closing. ( i think the protblem was that it was set to run in compatibility with win 95)

I actually have never seen a reason to use ANY compatibility setting on level edit, I had already been using it for a good couple years before I got an Internet connection that was good enough for me to come on-line and see that every one recommended disabling visual themes...

Good to hear it all works now Thumbs Up
