    There are people using spectate mode in the totem arts marathon server EU 1 and relaying peoples locations in totem arts voice chat. You might want to lock it down or limit who you give access to this feature because the rules of the server are to play fair and the moderators are not even following these rules and choose to derail games for a particular team. This occurred today in Totem Arts Marathon server EU 1 on map islands around late night eu time. I know for a fact this happened because of player behavior and you can see the hands floating over your head when you die under water. Enemy players even mentioned in all chat they knew how much renclassic's entire loadout cost. Just letting you know, balls in your court if you take any action about this.

    Thanks.

    Hands floating over your head having nothing to do with spectators. That's just your own first person hands. Being spectated also does not make you aim up in the air. If there are moderators doing it, what was the name of the person abusing this?

  2. I don't see how that could be the case, seeing as we only test on weekends and there aren't THAT many testers, not even all of them being RenX players. RenX hasn't really had a growing player base in several years, discounting some specific bursts of interest that happen from time to time.

    I recently came back to Renegade X and wished to check out the map I released some time ago, Paradise.

    Specifically, I downloaded and booted into the most recent SDK but I noticed something was wrong. The bots will only ever take the most direct route through the map (green), which means that you will never encounter enemies inside the volcano or throughout the jungle areas (red). This never used to be a thing. When I made this in 2019, you would encounter bots scattered throughout the map, taking different routes including in the red areas shown below.

    My question is, can I do anything in the SDK to remedy this, or has there been an update to the bots which no longer makes this possible?

    Welcome back! I don't think any specific change was made to make them only go on specific routes besides maybe trying to go to objectives. Try seeing if you can add additional objectives around the map to give more weight to the other nodes on the map.

    Would you be able to set up a private server for me? My family is having a family reunion and we all grew up together having lan parties. Me and my brother tried making a server but couldn’t figure it out. We would appreciate it so much if you could make one for us so we could have just one more family vs family game.

     

    thanks, 

    Danny Reeves 

    PM me with details and I'll see what I can do

    Thankyou ! I did not end up trying that as the launcher now works normally on its own. I have not tried restarting the launcher since it started working again... because scared. :o

    Some time after you made the post, we made a change on backend to help fix this.

    Played earlier today with no launcher issues. Reopened the launcher after taking acouple hour break in the evening at 8:30pm ( eastern canada ) and saw that it was auto downloading a new version of the launcher. Once finished it then prompted me to install unreal engine redistributable. I clicked yes, when it was finished an empty server menu shows up and game status shows as VERSION : NOT INSTALLED on the launcher screen. At the top i used to have the option of a News tab ( it would default load to this ) and Renegade X. I now have Renegade X and Black Dawn to choose from ( top of launcher screen ). The Settings and Verify buttons are grey'd out at the bottom of the launcher. If i try restarting the launcher, i get asked again to install " Unreal engine redistributable install ". The prompt also says " it looks like this is your first time with totem arts " .... " Click OK to get started ( You may get a UAC prompt ). Only option is to click OK. If i click Deny access on the next prompt screen ( Allow or disallow a program to make changes warning prompt ) then i get an empty server list with  ' Version : Not installed ' at top right.

    I did not install or update anything, i did not restart my computer befor this happened. I have tried restarting with no effect. I AM able to manually start renegadeX via the old application desktop shortcut.
    Was there an update and this is a known issue ? Is this something that has happened specific to me ? I joined the only server with players; one person, named Dax , who said his launcher is working normally.
    EDIT : Do i need to reinstall the game or is this a known issue that i should wait for an external fix ?

    Click install for RenX and select the directory it's currently installed in and it will recognize it.

    I am having this problem. it keeps failing on the download/install any Ideas? It's been yrs since I played would really like to get back into it been trying this all night lol

    Could you send me your launcher log file in DMs? %appdata%\ta-games-launcher\logs\main.log

  8. I'm open to making changes or discussing changes within the team, just need to know what people would want. However I'm not really in favour of adding a vote type of option. We could add a playercount minimum for beacons on Official Server, though.

    Regarding VP, I've always felt it was weird that new players can join and be higher VP than the lower members, but I'm not really sure how to fix that. If you always pushed the bottom players up, next time it did that it would just build on the last one and would add a natural VP progression over time, which I don't think is a good idea.

    You mean to use the VPs from the last game for picking teams in the next game? In this case the algorithm doesn't take into account players joining the game in progress, but it would still be a great start... I totally agree.

    I believe he means the initial VP you have when joining a game that is already going.

    I used to be a Renegade fan and I am going to try out Renegade X. Unfortunately its installing for 32 minutes now, and its at only 65%. I notice that for the vast majority of that time it was downloading below 1MB/s then at around 5-7MB/s, then back to 2MB/s again. Is there a way to make this better? Is the launcher built in a way that it is possible to bring up mirrors of whatever files are being downloaded so that future generations can have a better experience? (I am sitting on a 2G/1G fiber in eastern Europe and would be open to help)

    The download speed indicator is an extreme approximation, however we are planning on releasing an update soon that revamps the downloading and should provide better speeds.

    I was so excited to see:  

    Surely this means the  O button is enabled!

    But sadly I tested it and failed.     :(

    What does  added passenger seats mean?  .. . ..  AND!

    When can we get the O button fun ?

    It means the hovercraft now has more seats than just the driver.

  13. I'd follow isupreme's advice, as I'm not sure anything can be done about the bot crashes. Almost all of our development resources are towards Firestorm at the moment and bots are a notoriously difficult thing to debug. This would simply require too much time and effort with low impact on the day-to-day gameplay for most players.
