September 30th is here!
The day you have all waited for has finally arrived! After over two years of planning, building the mod, and updating our fans, the moment we've all worked so hard for is finally here. Our passion for C&C Renegade has been channeled, and manifested into this great project, Renegade X. Today is a great day for our mod and our community, as it marks a new beginning for Command & Conquer Renegade fans everywhere, a fulfillment of our promise, and the start of a new generation of C&C FPS gaming.
Today is the day where we release the very first incarnation of Renegade X. It is our first beta, which features the basis of C&C Renegade's game mode and units. It's the very first of many public releases, given to the public to ensure a stable and exciting full release of the mod in the future. Renegade X 0.35 does not contain everything the mod will eventually offer, as it is an early beta, but it is your chance to get an early taste of Renegade X, and an opportunity for you to share your opinions, ideas, and help us in the process of fixing glitches.
The Renegade X team plans on releasing patches after each beta release, to fix any problems we may encounter as the open beta ensues. New content is also on the way.
Download Renegade X Beta Version 0.35 NOW!
To anyone that has ever doubted that this day would ever come...in your face!

Unreal Tournament 3 Patch
Before even attempting to install Renegade X, please make sure you have the latest Unreal Tournament 3 patch. You can find that here:
http://udn.epicgames.com/Files/UT3/UT3patch5.exe
NOTE: If you bought the Steam Unreal Tournament 3 Black Edition you do NOT need this patch.
Minimum System Requirements
The minimum system requirements for Renegade X are about the same as Unreal Tournament 3. You must have the necessary PC parts either as powerful or more powerful than the ones listed below.
Minimum:
o Supported OS: Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista
o Processor: 2.0+ GHZ Single Core Processor
o Memory: 512 MB RAM
o Graphics: NVIDIA 6200+ or ATI Radeon 9600+ Video Card

o DirectX: DirectX 9.0c
How to Install Renegade X Beta Version 0.35
To install the mod, run the "Renegade-X 0.35 Beta.exe" file. A self extractor will ask you to where you wish to install the mod. You must install Renegade X in "Documents/My Games/Unreal Tournament 3", otherwise it will not work. Afterwords, you must manually create a ut3.exe shortcut - this can be placed anywhere on your computer. Then, right click on that new shortcut, click properties, and edit the Target: place "-mod=..\Renegade -solomod" at the end of the target, minus the quotations. Renegade X should now successfully be installed.
Tutorial Video!
For those of you who plan on downloading the mod, or are interested in knowing how to play, we've released the Renegade X Basic Tutorial. It briefly explains the basics of our mod's game mode "C&C mode", for those of you who either haven't played C&C Renegade online, or simply need a refresher. We highly recommend you watch it before playing our mod.
You can check that out here: http://borgamers.com/RenX/RenX_CnCTutorial.avi

"How to Play" Document
If you'd like to view a more detailed text version of how to play the mod, there is a .txt file included in the download rar. You can also read that here: http://www.renegade-x.com/Forums/index.php?showtopic=2909
How to Join a server
Renegade X Beta Version 0.35 is a multiplayer-only mod. Although you can play the mod in "Instant Action" mode offline, no AI are currently available. That feature will be released in a later beta. Therefore, you need to be connected to the internet to play with this mod with others. There are two ways to join a server:
1) Load "Renegade-X.exe" in the Renegade folder after you install the mod. It will launch a server client program, where you will see the available servers listed. Refresh the list if necessary. Simply set up your screen name at the bottom of the client, click on the server you wish to join, and click the "Join Server" button. Make sure the file path under "UT3.exe Location" is correct before joining the server.
*NOTE: The server client does not always show the right amount of players. This will be fixed asap.
2) If for whatever reason you are unable to join a server with the "Renegade-X.exe" server client program, there is a secondary way to join a Renegade X server. Launch your Renegade X shortcut, login to your multiplayer account, click "Multiplayer", then click "Join Game". Once on that screen, press F10. This should launch a console. Then, simply type the word "open" in the console (no quotations), followed by a space, and the IP of the server you wish to join. Then hit enter, and it should take you straight to the server. Make sure the server IP is correct - you can find the IPs to the official servers on http://www.renegade-x.com/forums
Please make sure the mod is fully and properly installed before attempting to join a server. If you have any questions or problems, please do not hesitate to voice your problems at our official forums. http://www.renegade-x.com/forums

Played it for a while earlier... graphics are very nice but it's clearly showing it's beta status. The third person skeleton animations just look wrong, although I have heard this is because they are using the standard UT3 animations for that.
The glowing line effect thing around everything you point at looks a bit stupid, I assume its meant to replicate the hitbox from Renegade but can we please have an option to turn that off? It really spoils the looks of the units which you have put so much effort into.
Stealth units (especially the SBH) don't seem to work at all, I bought one and was immediatly run over by a humvee which spotted me from the other side of the map before I had used a single round of ammunition and came straight at me, even following me as I dodged to the side. I didn't try the stealth tank but I did manage to spot a few by noticing red blobs moving around on the radar while they were cloaked.
The only other big thing I noticed in the couple of games I played was that the vehicles feel like they are made from plastic and filled with helium, they bounce all over the place and cornering feels awful.... the physics need some serious tweaking there.
Anyway, it is a beta, so heres hoping the next release is even better and the team can continue to keep up the pace of development and quality of the models and graphics. The scripting side of things seems fairly solid from what I have seen, although not being able to use the server browser inside UT3 itself was a bit dissapointing.
EDIT: Oh, and one last thing.... can we have a new ingame font please? I can't read the current one at all, I gave up trying to work out the names of things after a while, it's all too blurry and smudged. I assume the font's DO scale with resolution? Otherwise that could be the problem, perhaps they just get shrunk down too much on 1680x1050 resolutions to be able to see them properly.

So any chance of this ever being released on PS3? before I get a new PC, I am stuck with that.
|
Lol. Silly. The PS3 has no games.

I've been playing a bit now. :-S And i decided to stick with Renegade, at least for the moment. RenX looks a bit like Renegade, but it doesn't feel like it for me. Maybe it's because I don't have the PC power to play on high settings, I don't know.
I guess it's a good thing for Renegade that RenX is so different.
You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord
