Hi there, Renegade Forums! I'm Altzan, and Ive been observing your forums for some time now. I have registered as a member of the forums, and, unfortunately for you, I have a lot of questions. So if you could, I would appreciate any help you could give me.
First though, a bit about me. I am a big CnC fan, especially of the Tiberian Series, including Renegade of course. I make small little maps\mods for me and my brothers' enjoyment. I have made a botfighting map, a beta co op map, and am working on a crazy vehicle mod. Nothing fancy, just heightfield maps with temped presets for a specific purpose. Not worthy of these forums on other words. Whats That
But I do want to learn how to edit and mod Renegade more effectively, so I have several questions I'd like to ask. Again, any help will be greatly appreciated.

1] What is the best method to take a campaign mission map and use it as a LAN or internet map? I have tried importing the map and deleting most of the elements (script zones, sapwners, waypaths, etc.) but when I test the map with only startup spawners on it, it is really laggy. I read somewhere on the forums about visual sectors, is that the solution? Huh

2] Is it possible to rig the GDI hovercraft for player use, and how? When I tried the visual camera was screwed up and I could only turn, not move. I was certain to make sure it was above ground, had appropriate transitions and that it was a VTOL vehicle (I want it to fly). Impossible or am I doing it wrong?

3] What is the best way to make Neo Bot Vehicles follow you? Mine tend to stop a lot and refuse to move. Sarcasm

4] Are server side mods (IE an AOW mod) able to be integrated into .pkg files and played thatway? I have been enticed by cool features such as AOW, CTF, CO OP with everyone on team GDI, and whatnot. But I am unsure how to go about this with a .pkg mod if it is even possible.

5] Anyone know of a website\community with Renegade models to use? I found models of the component towers from Tiberian Sun and was impressed by them, I was curious to know if there were others out there.

That is all I can remember at the moment.
Thanks, and I am glad to be here with a great Renegade community!
In Love
