Hello fellows,
Over the last few days i have been creating installer packages and doing network roll outs, you know the sort
It has got me thinking, so i figured id ask this here that way others can respond with there thoughts on the matter.
Considering the release of Renegade X is still quite a whiles away, but how is it going to work with its install package for the mod? is it going to be just a simple, self extracting set of archives that you point to your UT3 directory? or is it going to be something a bit more like the old WW style installers with the video / pictures set up type thing?
While i love the old renegade way of installing, it can get a bit annoying, so whats the plans for the mods installer?
Its just a random passing thought that sparked a bit of interest.

Yes you are correct the mod is still under development. Is there any other questions you have that we can address?

QUOTE (=HT=Duro @ Jan 20 2009, 12:37 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>hmm ya EA is ... studio staff cant do this cause EA sign paycheck .... EA never sell a game without big bug or a game who need big patch as soon as it get out on market ... its a big company and for them, they dont care ifthe game isnt finish at 100% before sendint it, they got shippin date and they stick to it , they dont care to ship patch the day after .... well RA3 ...
i got it .. cause im a C&C fan and i got all game original .. not the first decade .. and ill get the RA3 Exp .. even if i dont play it .. for sure ill give it a try but ... i liked C&C3, but the waiting for RA3 was really disapointing ... the cartoonish graphic + the japaness group .. well too much power ranger for me ... the only things i really love in RA3 is the water and the way the ship stay under water after destoying[/b]
While that is very true and ea only is out to make money and not caring about ruining game titles, i must admit, i have not brought RA3 yet, it is still around the $100 AUD mark here, i am waiting for it to hit the $20 specials bin before i buy it or the expantion pack to add it to my collection, because $100 is too much to pay for a game, specially when it butchers your favorite series. -
well whats the form about? other than play station?
(not asking to be mod just wanting more information about if its a cool place to hangout/lurk)

Has anyone played mirrors edge? i finished the game the other day, i picked it up started playing and couldn't stop untill i finished it, its a gem of a game like portal.
only regrets is the game isn't very long and the storyline ends abruptly, other than that id say its a fast paced fluid game.

Though i am willing to 100% agree with people and say that C&C died when EA took over, but the thing that we have to remember is that most of the westwood staff and assests merged into EALA, So i am not 100% sure to blame EA just for all the faults.... sure they are pushy and have a shitty QA and are very bad with there Crunch times, But i am really starting to ask "did the old staff just give up? now are the fans left with shit?" Sure you can say that Petroglyph is WW now, but that's not true only a few staff members went across.
Sure EA buys out a lot of smaller well named company's (yeah they even brought a bunch of Ubisoft shares as a direct attack) sure they killed BF, they also killed NFS and i can name many more. But the point i am getting at is, why aren't the studio staff saying No we cant do this, give us more time? or even pretending to care?
Is EA truly a soul sucking monster of a company?

I must say congratulations on getting this far, and secondly I've voted

I agree with you there, unless they are just spamming the topic over and over again.
besides starting new threads keeps an active membership as well as posting in threads, and every forum loves active members because it makes the community a better place. -

Let me know when you are done; I'll check back then.[/b]
Where i live, i did most of my IT courses through RPL (recognized Prior learning), basically you sit down, have an interview show them work you have done as proof, maybe do a test, solve some problems.... and then BAM instant pass, then on the harder courses i did the work and got all highs and distinctions.
Do you guys have a system like RPL? -

I can't wait either dude. I'm going to bring several clans to the Mod. I'll advertise to every clan, and community on Renegade to get them all to transfer over to the latest and COOLEST mod ever in renegade.
It will be sad for the new players; they will be playing alone in Renegade (After they buy it and play online...).
Seriously though, I'll do whatever I can to make people come play. Your Mod is already a hit, and everyone knows that, but I can't wait for more people to be on it once it's done. I'll try and advertise players on UT3 as well hahahahahaha.....[/b]
When completed, the more people playing the merrier, i am sure everyone else can agree with that. If you want to help out as much as you can ask to join the media platoon when they have there next sign ups
QUOTE (Wizard17 @ Jan 14 2009, 08:14 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>WOW! That is incredible! It had me salivating!
Yes my UT3 is loaded and waiting......
I am still playing more Renegade than any other game but will certainly switch to Renegade-X just as soon as it is out.
My email is in your database - please let me know if you need more players in your beta test program!
Wiz[/b]
I have seen that question asked many times, and Ive always seen the answer "the beta test positions where filled a long time ago", so unless you get lucky, i guess you will have to wait like the rest of us
All the feed back this mod is getting is really awesome, its heart harming to see so many dedicated fans. -
Sorry.
in Renegade X
all sillyness really, oh well if people don't want to sign up that's there problem we don't have to force them
-
Awesome as, looking forward to watching the HD copy over and over and over again

I can gladly do a trial project, but the most I have are silly little 5 minute forum signatures and doodles.[/b]
I know what that is like i came home one day last week and my pc was failing to boot, bsod (system_exception_error) anyway lucky i got away with installing windows over the top, and now i am backing up everything, but with 2.42TB and no spare hdds i am going through a lot of dvds.
Id say that do a texture or what ever you want that you feel happy/proud with and post it for the devs to have a look at. Probably the best way to get there attention.
best of luck anyway

QUOTE (Demigan @ Jan 5 2009, 11:48 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Allright, I actually missed all this untill I read the reply on one of the threads (asking about updates )
I watched those rocks pass, the road showed for only the tiniest part and even before the words came out I just knew what I was about to see those first seconds. Marvellous.
In the trailer, most of the tank turrets seemed to turn as they should, except the mammoth tank.
Otherwise, I must say your camara skills have improved tremendously since the previous trailer. While the first trailer gave a far better feel of 'Let's go pawn some suckers' this trailer really does it with the slo-motion, fast forward and following of tanks, rockets and infantry across the field at sometimes almost haphazard ways.
The trailer also shows very clearly what I hadn't seen clearly before: The stealth animation (talk about a paradox). It's quite realistic, and nicely done. My only fears will be that if a stank keeps spraying all that sand when riding over a beach while stealthed, will it even matter it's got a lazarus shield on board?
Islands seems finished, don't add any more to it. Otherwise I'll be goggling at the environment and get shot by every noob in game.
Last but not least: those engineers are ready to get dirty in some APC rushes if I had my way.
Yours sincerely,
Demigan.[/b]
good points there, but id say that the stealth tank on the sand and such would only be a team visual? so the enemy wouldn't see it.... id like an answer to that, just to see if my guess is right. -
I really must say, since this thread has come up ive been down to the local game store a few times, and i am surprised to see the amount of good semi-new games going for rock bottom prices, only if i had some money lol, id pick up TDU for $10 and all the fear games for $30

I second that, it is coming along quite well. I like watching a work in progress, specially looking back from the finished object. -
Rofl that's an awesome link, ill remember to use that from now on.

QUOTE (S31Apoc @ Dec 26 2008, 11:57 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>got mine in the mail today.. 10.99 & less than a week to get UT3.. Im jacked, i built my comp just a few months ago 2.8quad, 4 gigs of 1066, Nvid280. It plays ultra smooth with everything on hi settings..
Just waiting on the mod now & ill be a happy mofo...[/b]
Oh yeah you would love that system, i bet the 280 runs it lovely. I am still happy with my 260, But i think its time to build a new system for myself lol... only need the cash lol.
Anyway yeah i doubt that anyone isnt looking forward to this mod. -

Installers?
in Renegade X

Even though while that is true, instead of just watching it copy across files and have a loading type bar, Why not do something like C&C 95 or test drive unlimited, and have it display pictures while its installing? sort of there to keep peoples attention and get them sort of pumped up into wanting to play the game.
