I want to make it clear that I have waited a WEEK before posting this, so it is not a post in anger.

I play regularly on the n00bstories servers, and I love this game. I have been forced to stop playing it, however, because of a very ill-conceived rollout of a very unfinished product. I want to return to playing this game, but it has been impossible.

I want every single person here to go to the following website: http://www.projectmagma.net

This excellent group of amateur programmers has been working with MythDev to maintain the codebase of the Myth series for years. They have released major patches and improvements, all without breaking the game. RenGuard has broken the game for many of the people who play...read the forums! Many don't post, they just stop playing. When you have a community with NO corporate support, you can NOT alienate so many players...you have to be careful and make sure things work. You have to assemble beta test groups and make sure everythign is PERFECT, because every lost player is pretty much lost forever.

My advice: retract RenGuard until it works, period. The game survived for a long time without it, and it can wait a few weeks. I, on the other hand, will not. The application will not work with any workaround I have researched in over 4 hours over the past week of tring to fix the problems. I have reinstalled Renegade, downloaded the patch fresh, and installed RenGuard on top of that...and it still crashes.

I'm just a guy who wants to keep playing the game...I am capable of no threat. But trust me: you guys will lose your community if you keep doing things like this.
