Hi,
i just wanted to let you guys know whats the problem with Renegade-X in my eyes and help others to join the fun in the second part.
For the Team:
One big issue is - of course - that you have to own a copy of UT3 - so if there would be a standalone Version (even as unfinished beta) this would dramatically increase Player numers and the Fun as you would just have to post a link to the Download in the IRC channel of your trust to get ppl playing.
Another problem i had, and im shure im not the only one, as i can see "Player" trying to connect frequently, is that you have to install the Renegade-X client into the damned standard Directory on Drive C: to not be stuck for hours/days at the server file Downloading screen and loose patience.
All i want to say, is that its not important to bring out a Singleplayer mode to show your skills as long no one is playing the much more awaited multiplayer part, wich would be not that much work compared to what you have probably planned with Operation Black Dawn.
For the Players :
1. get a copy of UT3 if you dont already own one. You can buy it somewhere quite cheap these days i guess and for the others there is piratebay. ( serials you can get for example from serials.ws - worked for me )
2. get UT3Patch5.exe and install it
3. get RenegadeX_Beta_v055.exe and install it ( important ! ) to the standard folder on drive C:
- even if your UT3 is located somewhere else.
4. get the RenegadeXServer Files and install them (this will save time)
5. start up Renegade-X and let the updater do his job
6. Play the Game
hope to see you ingame soon !
