  1. Verifying multiple times isn't normal, no. I'm still curious as to how that happened. 

    As for getting system information, an easy way to get the overview is by running 'dxdiag' (If you're on windows 10/8 you can just type it into start and it'll run it. 

     

    Will look something like this.

    Just screen shot the 'System Tab' and the 'Display' Tab. (You can block out the computer name if you'd rather not show that. 

  2. Just to get simple things out of the way, is the game itself at least set to 1920x1080 in the settings? You'd be amazed how often that gets reset if the configuration folder is either read-only, or holding the wrong permissions in Windows.

    ...according to some ppl, arties get some kind of vp boost if you're camping buildings...like if you hit a building a few times the vp-per-hit goes up.  NO idea if that's true but if you've been around the last week or so you've heard this person talk about it.....starts with an S, ends with a M....constantly AFK...

     

    and again...PLEASE DONT BRING BACK THE CURVING

    Assume said person is an idjit that cant comprehend math... 

    Already looked at what they mistook for a glitch... Confirmed working normally. Arty just does that much damage

    It’s crazy seeing some Rene action in 2020, might try to play on both renegade x and old ren this weekend. I’m guessing not enough people to actually do some clan wars though

     

    I dont believe clans really exist in any capacity in OldRen anymore. The tags are there, but wars are few and far between. 

     

    The closest thing to competitive in RenX are Pickup Games that are held every Saturday and Sunday, and usually attract 40-50 players, all using voice chat with dedicated commanders and whatnot

    Overal problem is that we have Score VP-based only. We dont have Role classifications, like Inf, Rep, Snipers, Commanders, Sneakers etc. A lot of things could be applied here but that will be a huge (VERY HUGE) amount of work. Also this will hit server performance drasticaly. 

    Just here to clarify: the total score isnt 100% VP based. Most things you get VP for you get score for, but it's weighted differently so everyone has an 'equal' shot at scoreboard position. 

    VP literally takes into account infantry reps and snipers... maybe not infiltrators so much, sans when they're killed.

    And finally.... basic math is actually not adding huge server overhead. It already does that to calculate score, and it's a negligible performance hit, as it really is just a series of short-ish equations. People completely overlook just how many events and stats there actually are that go into VP.

  6. Arts can be used almost as front line tanks. The shell drop isnt that big a deal once you close the distance, plus the drop let's you hit things that are over hills/rocks while out of sight... but it's less extreme than the MRLS. 

    Honestly the current MRLS is my favourite vehicle... can basically hit anything from anywhere if you just work angles.

  7. It likely has a lot to do with FPS fluctuation (the warping); literally just the game engine trying to keep everything proportional when once there's only a .01s between frames, and the next there's .05s between frames. 

    The extra lag on the Z axis I don't even see in your videos, but I know what you're talking about. Not quite sure where it would be handled differently, but I have noticed people moving on ramps tend to get warpy as all hell. 

  8. Kaunas won the internet with internet with that. 

    Also infantry rushes are pretty binary... they either get caught or they don't. 

    Buffing for a tank rush kind of requires you to just pay attention to the situation... you're generally not going to want to give up field by waiting for people to build 12 tanks and sit in base... better off just realizing it's a good time to congregate and push all at once, IE when the enemy does something stupid... like infantry rush when there's 12 tanks at the door.

  9. Try adding the 'Everyone' group and giving it modify rights on the Renegade X folder.

    Also, 1.4 GB is actually not enough free space. 

    You can also run the launcher till it breaks, then look in the Windows 'Event Viewer' under 'Application' and see if Windows is throwing an error. That's how we found out about the d3d9 issue.
