Not just models but all 4 of the things you listed.

I had to leave at 4:30 so I'm kinda sad about missing out on this event yet again. Things always pop up, but for the hour and a half that I was there it was definatly a huge lift of sprit and modivation about why we are remaking this game and why it is so dear to all of us. Thanks to all who showed up, as it was a blast. The only other event we host like this is the Rene-Game which is on ren's B-Day but that has already passed and the next one will probably end up being on RenX anyways.

QUOTE (silverfirehunter @ Jul 13 2009, 10:00 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes it was called Tiberium. But I think we killed it.

Seriously, stop demanding updates. Its not like you guys dont know what this mod is going to be about or what the first release will have. If you guys didnt and we'd have kept info under wraps, then I can understand. But we didnt! So quit bitching and just wait.

No, it will come to a rest, if it didnt then it wouldnt really make sense.

Well, even though I know the story will be ruined; I'm psyked! Man their MMKs look so gay. That big one looks like they took the C&C3 gdi recon unit (I dunno what it's called but it shoots 2 rockets) and turned it into a giant frog. I bet the two big mechs, the one on gdi and one on nod are the crawlers we've been hearing about.

Driect quote from the recent "Nod Update" QUOTE So essentially, the primary fire will explode on impact, and the secondary fire will launch a grenade that will bounce as many times as it comes into contact with any object, however it will explode if it comes into contact with a target or if the grenade reaches its life time of 8 seconds.

Hahahahahahahahahaha, aww I cant stop laughing... :lol: NO! <_<

RPG elements? NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! As if upgrading units isnt bad enough. And, crawlers? As if Rigs didnt kill the game now you can deploy a base? EA should go play Covert Ops, then they will know what real tactic is all about. Not some stupid upgrading shit with a mobile base. And if they like FMVs so much then aim for movie styled like in Tiberian Sun. Not the crap that was in TW and RA3. I'm glad that its a conclusion but also saddened because I know EA will ruin it.

Thanks a lot mate. This is the kind of stuff that keeps the team modivated.

Wonderland sucks too imo. I went there last year and went on almost every ride. The only ones that were some what decent were Drop Zone and Vortex. Other then that its all childs play. I'd say the only thing worth seeing are Niagra Falls, especially when you go on the ship and get close to the falls.

Lol, Toronto is boring man. Its like New York but without anything interesting.

Lol, if only there was such an option. That screen will not even be present in the mod as there is no use for it.

Last time I will say this. :angry: RENEGADE X WILL NOT HAVE SKINNING OR ANY OTHER CUSTOMIZATION CAPABILITIES! Three reasons for why Renegade X will not have any skins. First reason is because of advantage/disadvantage skins. Lets face it chances are your renegade is probably altered some way or another from the original. This means no stupid sponge bob square fucking pants C4s that can be seen a mile away. No shiny stealth skin to get an advantage. No glowing firey projectiles. No bright coloured character skins to be able to see from far. Second reason is because the way Unreal Engine 3 works, you will find that there are no custom skins for any existing characters. The only way you can make an existing ut3 character look different is to make a new character. So yes, you cannot simply place a texture file or any other file with the same name and hope to make a skin. Lastly, we dont want Renegade X to look like crap.

We should really setup a FAQ page on the site.

Well think about it this way. During that chaotic time when Westwood Studios was finished; they had just released C&C Renegade. During that time, everyone was waiting for the next big C&C, the one that we've been waiting for since 1999. Everyone was waiting for Tiberian Twilight, and you know something, we're still waiting for Tiberian Twilight even though we know there never will be one. I dont know about you, but Tiberium Wars was never a sequal to Tiberian Sun/Firestorm and never will be. Renegade 2 would not have healed C&C as much as Tiberian Twilight would have. If WW didnt die out, and they released Ren2 before TT then I would have been pissed.

Hands down Tiberian Twilight. C&C needs to be saved more then it needing another FPS. C&C was never about getting as many hot actresses as you possibly can and calling it a C&C game. The series has been going downhill starting with Generals. Though I would love to see Renegade 2 or even Continuum, I prefer the story to move forward in the direction WW intended rather then going with the path EA chose. Why do you need Ren2 when you got RenX haha kid. I'd love Ren 2 to be reborn and connect the RA and Tiberium universes.

We wanted to do a change and actually make a some what normal mod update, excpt without the grey untextured models. Well no I'm lieing, we just wanted to stack up art assets that are supposed to be in the first release.

Renegade X: Nod Update! The Brotherhood of Nod is a mystery. The origins of the organization and its charismatic leader is unknown. Its power is unprecedented. Its truth is unlimited. Nod as an organization appeared first in the mid 1990s, as the primary opposition to the Global Defense Initiative. The Brotherhood has a global presence, with a heavy concentration of its forces and influence covering the third world. They are pioneers in the refinement of Tiberium, and are always one step ahead in developing new technologies intended to take advantage of Tiberium growth worldwide. Kane, the leader of the Brotherhood, is a mysterious figure. His origins, whereabouts, and any details about him whatsoever, remain unknown. Nod sees Kane as a savior proclaiming a new message of unity and freedom from the corrupt tyrants of the world. He propagates Tiberium as a gift to the earth, and its mutating effects on humans to be the next step in our evolution. Nod does not come in peace. It comes ahead of peace - Kane. Nod Supremacy The official Renegade X Nod wallpaper is now avaliable. 16:10 Resolutions 1920x1200 1680x1050 1280x800 4:3 Resolutions 1600x1200 1280x960 1024x768 Renegade X has new Nod assets ready for fighting GDI! Sakura! A Japanese woman covered in tattoos with a quiet, brooding, intense personality, Sakura Obata was raised in the male-dominated environment of the Japanese mob, the Yakuza. Disenchanted, she decided to use her considerable talents as a mercenary, and was hired by GDI to work with the Project: Shadow Strike unit, later known as the Dead 6 alongside then-captain Nick Parker. During one assignment, she was separated from her team and ambushed by Nod troopers. Since she was never heard from again, she was assumed dead. However, it turned out she joined Nod. She was hired by general Gideon Raveshaw as his personal mercenary. As a commando armed with a Ramjet Rifle, Sakura is one of the most valuable units in the game! Nod Armoured Personnel Carrier We had decided to take a new design for Nod's APC. Influence has been taken from the Stryker vehicle. Armed with an M134 gatling machine gun, and with enough room for five passengers, the APC plays a very necessary role in the game. Nod Officer The Nod Officer is the point man for Nod basic infantry on the field. He is both inexpensive and useful, as he uses a heavy chaingun to eliminate his enemies from close and far ranges alike. Watch out! Nod Flame Tank A personal favourite for many. Flame Tanks are a signature Nod vehicle, armed with dual flame cannons to ensure maximum damage, and heavy armour to guarantee that it will make it to its target. Although close ranged, Flame Tanks are a fiery threat to enemy vehicles, infantry, and structures. Don't let these in your base, GDI! Firefly Laser Rifle Nod's 'Firefly' Laser Rifle takes Brotherhood laser technology to ground level. Its instant beams not only maintain a good range, but are capable of tearing vehicles apart and incinerating enemy infantry. It is the primary weapon of the Stealth Blank Hand, creating a deadly mixture of stealthy tactics and powerful weaponry. The texture is still an early Work in Progress! SDT-B Vulture Shotgun A weapon used by both Nod and GDI shotgun infantry, the 'Vulture' Shotgun is a close ranged weapon used best against infantry and light vehicles. With eight rounds per shot, the shotgun could put a hole in just about any infantry at the proper range. AG79 Kestrel Automatic Grenade Launcher GDI's only asset in this update. The 'Kestrel' Grenade Launcher fires 40mm grenade rounds in an arc. Although difficult to become accustomed to, if used correctly, the Grenade Launcher could pose a threat to infantry, vehicles, and structures, especially in packs. Primary fire shoots a grenade that explodes on impact, while secondary fire shoots a grenade that will bounce and last a few seconds. That's all for now!

Before you decide to model anything just become familar with all of the tools that are avaliable. Well all might be over whelming but all of the basic modeling tools that are avaliable. Just try making a box, converting it to an editable poly and just trying out all the different tools that are avaliable in the modifier panel. Once you have an idea of which tools perform what task, then you will have a better idea how to achieve certain tasks. There are many different ways to model, and its really just up to you because in the end it will all be the same. I also like Maty, start off with a single plane and extrude it out and shape it to a model. However sometimes I like to make a basic model which would be made entirely out of primitive objects. This way I can see what it is I'm trying to model, and keep the proprtions check. I guess you could say its kind of like a rough copy to get you started. After that I would go ahead and model over it with a "good copy" mesh. As I said before thats just one way to make models. I do not prefer one way over another. I tend to model each part differently based on the best possible way to model that particular object. For your first model I suggest that you do not tackle something that has a lot of organic shapes and curves, but rather go for something a little more easy to do. As Maty said already, a car is actually quite difficult because it has lots of organic curves. So I too would recommend that you try something a little easier. One of the most helpful set of tutorials I found were from 3D Buzz. These guys have a bunch of video tutorials on so many different things. They throughly explain what you need to know to use a certain application like 3ds max. If you bought the limited edition of UT3, you'll notice there are some video tutorials and they were all made by the guys from 3D Buzz. So goto their websites, register, and you'll be able to view all of their free video tutorials. http://www.3dbuzz.com remember, start off easy, then slowly work your way up.

Son of a bitch that is amazing. Nice work. btw, how did you get anti aliasing to work in the screenshots?

Thanks alot guy! I appreciate it!

I'd like to add: - You ran over an SBH - You've been called a hacker by a noob - Remember the demo days everytime Under loads up - You've memorized ack reply - Started a flame war for calling it NOD - Stuck timed c4s on unsuspecting snipers - Disarmed beacons after 0

Shouldnt we update from 07 to X. I suggest Razor's I thought that was awesome.

Mortal Kombat died after MK3. That was the last good one imo.
