  1. If someone attempts to enter a vehicle leaving the bay, the vehicle seems to stop in place. This seems to be a more likely cause to vehicle destruction than timing. It's easy to mistake a tank as your own, try to enter it, and then watch your tank blow theirs up because it stopped in place.

    Edit: You can see a guy backing off from that mammoth in that video, too. He likely attempted to enter the mammoth, realized it wasn't his, and backed off, only just to watch it explode in your face.

  2. The bot will part channels when their type is configured as negative. The default config sets the default type to -1. You can change this by removing the line "Channel.Type=-1" under [Default], but RenX still will not report to those channels.

    If you need help configuring, I can help ye with that.

  3. That kind of memory usage is normal for most modern games.

    battlefield 4 used less memory and cpu power

    COD Ghosts used less memory and cpu power

    world of tanks uses less than half the memory and cpu power

    This is a problem? Shit, my copy of Opera (web browser) is using 1.5 GB of my 16 GBs of RAM right now - mostly because I have 62 tabs open.

    with google chrome i can have 200+ tabs open and STILL use less memory than renX even if im playing more than 2 browser games simultaneously at the same time

    my specs:

    CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E6550

    GPU: EVGA GeForce GT 620 1024MB

    RAM: 4x 2gb dimm 240 pin 800 mhz (its all dual channel and ddr2)

    Hard Drive: 2 TB

    OS: win 7 professional x64

    I'd recommend investing in a processor made in the last 6 (rather than 7) years (preferably one that will support DDR3). Or are you waiting for DDR4 to roll-out?

  4. For RCON, there's also the following missing:

    Proper documentation

    A way to reliably identify yourself on RCON from other connections (though you can send a bogus command and catch its execution)

    Events:

    Radio chat

    Beacon placement/detonation/disarm.

    Airstrike deployment/completion.

    C4 detonation/disarm.

    Poll creation/completion (with results).

    Team change. (You can fairly reliably guess this based on "died by" event)

    Building capture.

    Edit: Though Kil did say he plans to do far more with RCON once the crashes on map-load are figured out.

  5. I tend to, for the most part, agree with this opinion.

    Though, I do feel that the spy crate operated the way it did in Renegade more-so due to the limited compatibility when enabling stealth on a specific player (you would have to have scripts enabled), whereas the SBH didn't have this compatibility issue. Perhaps just enabling stealth, rather than changing into an SBH (or any character for the matter), would be equally effective.

  6. Another important piece is actually calling out when enemies are incoming or in the base. If you're in the base by yourself, you need to be repairing and calling out so that your teammates know to come back and save the base. It's extremely irritating to be wrapping up a plan to take out the Airstrip+Obelisk when all of a sudden you hear "Advanced Guard Tower Destroyed" :\

  7. If your issue with rejoining is along the lines of "I get immediately thrown back to the main menu after trying to connect", then you're most likely trying to join a server that's either full, OR the server you tried to join is still running Beta 1 (you can't join Beta 1 servers when using Beta 2).

  8. Updated! Note: This update will NOT function on Open Beta 1 servers; this is an update for Open Beta 2.

    Also note that there have been significant changes to the configuration file that require you to modify any existing configs. This mostly (if not entirely) applies to the [RenX] section being changed, and several other sections being added.

  9. Why Do You Cap Each Fking Word.

    Makes Ur Sh1t Hard To Read And Makes You Look Like A COMPLETE TOOL!

    Because Why Not. Also How Does It Make It Hard To Read And Make Me Look Like A Tool.

    If Your Going To Insult Me Atleast Give Me A Reason Why.

    One reason would be because when you're reading a sentence, in any language, you anticipate it to adhere to some degree to some particular form. When you break too far away from this form in such a way that is extremely uncommon, your message either becomes incomprehensible, or extremely difficult to read.

    Another would be that each instance of you doing that is grammatically incorrect.

    Translation: It Hurts Our Fucking Eyes To Read Crap Like This When It Isn't A TitTlE BeCauSE noBody elSe doeS this unLess theY wAnt To be takEn as a j0ke.

  10. It'd actually be great to see something like this, though it would absolutely require some significant tweaking so that teams can differentiated Example: The RCON protocol just gives "GDI" or "Nod", so things like !pl on bots would just display everybody as GDI/Nod. In that case, they'd probable have to change identifiers from strings to integers, like 0=GDI, 1=Nod, 2=GDI2, 3=Nod2. I'm sure there are other areas that would require tweaking, though it does seem like an interesting/good idea (I'm always up for more maps!).

  11. As a statistical reference, on the first page of the leader-board, organized by score:

    65/100 players had a higher win rate with Nod.

    35/100 players had a higher win rate with GDI.

    I was originally expecting this to be closer to 50/50. Oddly enough, it does seem that there's an imbalance in Nod's favor.
