Since the last time I updated you on our progress, a LOT has happened.
The protocol that is used for communication between the various parts of the system is complete. The complex algorithms used for validating your files are also complete. The RenGuard client (running on the gamer's system), server-side client (running on the Renegade FDS), and the master servers all talk to each other. RenGuard support has been added to BRenBot, which is also nearing public release, and djlaptop is hard at work on the Server-Side client for those using their own server management solutions, such as GameBot and IRC scripts.
Still to be completed is the GUI (graphical interface) for the RenGuard client which will include such necessities as version checking and automatic upgrades. A command-line version of the RenGuard Client is already working.
As for time estimates, I don't want to give any specifics, but considering we've come this far in only a couple weeks, you can make your own estimates as to how long it will take for the remaining parts.
Scorpio9a and mac have been doing excellent, speedy work on this project and I am amazed by their work every day. The time is drawing near...
I'm the bawss.

Many cheaters are still out there.... And new cheaters are spawned daily, mostly new players who are pissed because some of us have been played the game since it's demo was released and they are tired of dying and do not want to put the time it takes to get good (not that i'm good but i can take the dying) so they cheat. Until Renguard comes out your best bet to avoid cheaters is to play on moderated servers, where cheaters are identified and BANNED. On our server ([StuTu]clanserver) we always BAN cheating bastards, and i hope all others mods do the same, do not kick them, and do not warn them.....Make sure they are cheating then BAN their asses. We should start a master list where all of us who are moderators could post names of known cheaters....hm..what an idea

Excellent news, thankyou for all your hardwork and perserverance, i for one are extremely grateful for all you hard work, maybe it is time to setup the renguard foundation, which accepts charitable donations for your efforts 
Thank god that this will bring an end to cheaters and the over zelous admins and n00bs that call experienced players cheaters :rolleyes:
