In the past two weeks in which I have been playing Renegade, I've enjoyed the overhauls of the game. A few new bugs have emerged, but that's normal in releasing new content. Some people think TT has caused more problems then there were at one point, but those people are obviously shortsited. After all is said and done with TT, people may choose not to implement it. I.hope not, nor I can't image why they would. Let me get to the point now after rambling. Have you guys consider the possibility of making your patch available to XWIS? That way, when people install Renegade, they will be prompted to download the old Westwood patch, and your new TT patch. What are your thoughts on that?

if tt won't be approved and forced to be used for all ren players, then server owners will force peoples to use it to prevent cheaters and have their custom stuff to all players without having to use backward compatibility for them. I'm not forcing peoples to use TT now, but i will in next betas, but for sure on final 4.0 release.

Well maybe some code can be written when your allowed to join a server, but as soon as you do...the MOTD window pops up and says something like "Please update your game further to the TT 4.0 Scripts" and maybe include a URL.

As Seye said, this is still in beta. Even if EA's approval was given, this isn't the final product. Even though honestly, I don't see this happening. It'll just be down to server owners forcing their players to use 4.0, and once all servers are to this, people that don't want to (which I don't see why you'd want to [unless you want to cheat]) will no longer play Renegade, reducing players.
Playercounts now? I have noticed a few people that aren't around anymore. Some play in only servers that don't have 4.0.

but there are still a lot of player who dislike the pure of the game and would like to use better skins or models to make it way better and detailed.

I have a different idea of this "pure" mode people are talking about. I don't think not using skins are other effects make the game not pure. I think pure is old school. No fancy stuff from the crate spawns, no drop mod, no spy's, and no tank shells. I know some of that stuff is server side only, but you take all that away from Renegade, and I think that's pure mode, or rather it should be dubbed, "classic" mode. *drools*

To be perfectly honest, I actually enjoyed playing with TT until it somehow managed to break free aim, I've been playing almost pure renegade for a long time now and to me there's no difference at all minus the simple fact I can no longer play C&C_Mesa due to TT disallowing my map conversion (the original map gives me migraines)
As for Gohan's statement of why people wouldn't want to use 4.0, I disagree with the fact that the only reason they wouldn't want to use 4.0 is to cheat, this game has been fully customisable for years now, and the amount of people that have completely converted almost every skin and texture available in this game to suit themselves, whom are now forced to use the original skins and textures is a rather high number. I know quite a few people who don't want to play Renegade with default skins due to the simple fact that they do not like how it looks; each to their own.
I personally think that the patch shouldn't be so extreme on skins and allow the basic skins (characters, huds, map conversions, building textures and terrain textures) to be customisable, but cutting out the likes of GPS huds etc.

Well this topic is still going on. I have to say I haven't watched much Anime recently (maybe a year or so) the last thing I saw was GITS (for the third time)
Im not too sure whether I just dont enjoy Anime anymore or whether its just I dont have time really to shit and watch it.

Well I'm just glad to know that at LEAST one server owner will be enforcing it. Hopefully we will see a domino effect with the other servers. As far as an MOTD ad, it's good to see the TT team has been covering all the angles. It make's it that more promising knowing the people working on this are passionate about the game and it's interesting history.

Can't expect Olaf to do more than causing random downtime which he announces less than a day before and making it super hard for anyone without a XWIS account to register a new one, with the expected cryptic error messages when you try to create a new account! God knows how many people never tried to play Renegade online because of it.
