I'm getting this just about every time I start Renegade, it's hit and miss whether I am actually able to get Renegade running. I tried reinstalling Renegade and I'm still getting it. I attached a crashdump file to this post and here's a screenshot.

It's a crash somewhat related to shadows. Saberhawk will have to see what the exact problem is, but can you try to disable shadows in wwconfig and see if it still crashes?

How exactly would I go about doing that? If you're referring to the "Shader Detail" slider on the Video tab, setting that to the lowest doesn't help. Huh

Tried it on both my Integrated gfx and my Dedicated gpu (yes I am using a laptop), still same error. Also tried it on multiple resolutions, with v-sync on and off, and windowed mode, same result for all. Huh

According to Saberhawk this problem has already been solved, and will be distributed in the next update. It seems there is little you can do about it if windowed mode does not work either for you.

I just got this after I installed TT 4.0 and ran the TT Launcher for the first time:

index.php?t=getfile&id=13753&private=0

So now I cannot play until a new build comes out?

So I was able to play once I opened wwconfig.exe and fixed all of my graphic settings. They had been forgotten from my previous configuration. Have you tried this yet?

I've tried a lot, from changing every setting I could find in wwconfig, some registry entries, and reinstalling renegade multiple times. Renegade works just fine until I install TT Scripts 4.0...

It is known this can happen and is fixed for the next build.

It was fixed 26 hours ago:
stealtheye has just committed revision 4305 in Tiberian Technologies:
Force wwconfig to run after a registry conversion. That ensures that the device id is set correctly.


@ Lone0001: You could contact StealthEye as he'll probably be able to help you figure out what is wrong. My guess would be some registry setting, which would mean it would be fixed in the next update.
stealtheye has just committed revision 4302 in Tiberian Technologies:
Improve registry conversion (HKLM/HKCR -> HKCU).

No, I don't know how to temp-fix this problem. The registry fixes I did were something else (they solve Creed3020's problem but not Lone0001's).

I get this error when trying to host a lan game or play skirmish. Also the old method of custom skirmish map list doesn't work!

For any "Internal error" message, please upload the crashdump (My Documents/Renegade/Client/*.dmp) file that should be created whenever the message shows. Sometimes it generates two for a single "Internal error" message. Please also specify when it happened. (You already did that. Smile )

Also post them in different threads please; they are often not related. "Internal error" is very general, and can relate to anything.

You open it in Visual Studio along with a matching set of debugging symbols (the .pdb files) and press Debug.
