Retrofraction

yeah defenatly need to work on the net code, cause it makes this game close to unplayable

Renegade X was a good idea, but a miss on trying to get the target audience to switch. I think that the reason Renegade was so much fun was because it did have flaws and Glitches. Not that i CHEAT its just with the server is sort of kill joy when making sure that no one can exploit a hole in the enemy's defense system to sneak a engineer into their base while no one was looking. Graphically I can understand the remixes you have done to the original game but some how these remixes have lost the retro-ness of renegade. you might want to consider switching your HUDs back to the original ones and make the buying screen the EXACTLY the same but with new pictures. One thing to point out is that Renegade is an old game that does not take a lot of CPU power or internet speed, and you sort of alienated the main fan group by using the UT3 engine witch is not quite as bad as the Crisis engine. I have a feeling that most of the people still playing renegade are using sub par computers that probably cannot run UT3 I have never played a game of UT3 without some lag even on a 3mb connection, but with the original Renegade I was still able to play well with 8 players on dial-up 56k. My grand parents still use 56k. . .

I still think it would be sweet if they could pull it off, no it would not be in the action but if you were observing the match you can be anywhere and that demo would be good.

I know there is a replay mode in UT3 that takes all the in game objects and displays your game through your eyes, ok However you have to use a PROGRAM like fraps to take still fram shots of your screen and then make a stop motion animation movie to make a video file, ( aka capture ) what would be cool if you could program a program similar to fraps in the game so when you are in replay mode you could just press capture and export it completely through Renagade X and select how you want it exsported and where it will go. yes, the demo file is less than one megabite , but the video file that fraps makes at 1080P is insanly big for 30 seconds.

yeah I was sort of asking if they could just make a replay mode and actually have a built in fraps, but i'm not that picky

thanks for the help, I look forward to making lots of videos

So an easy way to improve this game and get better PR is make an in game movie capture app that the general public can use. Then it would be easy for people like me to make movies like RvsB or other fan films and upload them to youtube and get word of mouth out to other CNC renagade fans that have not seen or heard of Ren X :lol: and try to make it output H.264 codec or mp4 format; so the movie files arn't 7gigs for 30 seconds like on fraps on HQ HDDD :lol: also some of the text you generated in the video like the renagade X on the april fools video is there any way I could get those file or video with blanck BG to use for some fan video. I am an amatuer film director and well I think I want to promote this game hard core!!! besides it looks like it could be fun too.
