There seems to be an serious error in the RenGuard 1.01 build that brings game.exe to crash. This is a Windows 2000/XP Issue.
It was bought to my attention that setting game.exe into [b]COMPATIBLITY MODE?[/b?] to Windows 98/ME fixes this problem temporarly. It isn't prefect, but it least it starts.
Also, the "quit" button seems to crash then when being in compatbility mode.
Set your shortcut to compatbility mode (Windows 98) when having game.exe crash issues.
We will be addressing this issue tonight, and bring out a fix as soon as possible. We're sorry for the inconvience..

i set compatibility too, and all that happens is renguard shows up in task manager...no motd, no renegade, no anything but renguard in the task manager...didnt you guys think to test for something as big as this before you released 1.01?

It only seems to be having problems on NT Based systems (NT4, 2k, XP) if you are having problems please go to your renegade directory and set Game.exe into Windows98/Windows ME Compatibillity mode and DISABLE Visual Themes and Advanced Text Services, If this doesn't help then visit the support chat here.
(Make sure you select the channel renguard_support).
EDIT:
It has come to my attention that half the people asking for help with XP problems are not running Service Pack 1. It is recommended you download SP1 before asking for support.
-Khold :mrgreen:
EDIT:
Crimson, I had this problem, you didn't test with enough people. *scold* ;p.

I know you guys or girls are doing a good thing by renguard. But the biggest bitch about all software developers is they dont do enough testing before they release a product. I hope all learn a lesson from this. I uninstalled renguard and now even though I am trying to install in right folder it says it isnt and gamespy will not even find my game to see servers.
This sucks!!!!!!!!!!!

First off I think Renguard is a great idea and I am very happy with the idea behind it, I understand that bugs are unavoidable. That does not make me feel any better, here is why... Renguard auto updated, maybe if you guys knew there were even a few problems with the update, the update should not have been auto. I’m sure you simply could have removed the update from the server until a better one was put in its place. I had the problem with my Game.exe crashing, tried everything suggested to fix it, NO LUCK! So I uninstalled Renguard and then Renegade wouldn’t work. FINE! No problem, I uninstalled Renegade and reinstalled it. Total time lost trying to fix this thing, over 1 hour. By the time I reinstalled it Westwood was down, not your fault, just the straw that broke the camels back. I love the idea behind Renguard great program, poorly tested before released. Overall satisfaction, I’ll let you know next version, you don’t want my opinion at the moment. For future reference, learn from Bill Gates mistakes. PLEASE!!! Forgive me for venting, I have earned it this time, believe me.
Thank You
Yippydoo
