  1. In the start up phase of the server or after a team change, the Spawn selection menu is sometimes shown for the wrong team. (It still works, if you select Flamethrower, you get grenadier and vice versa) Not a large problem, but might be looked upon, if it is an easy fix....

  3. Also ok, every bit of information helps...
  4. Well okay, but if it isnt coming soon, maybe something easy could be done in the meantime... (Maybe even just an option to open wiki after installing Ren-X) => would also help...
  5. Yes, this is kind of confusing...
  6. Hi, When new players start this game, they are being thrown into the cold water. (not even the old loading screen with the basic concept is there anymore) So, more often than not, they dont even know basic principles of the game. To avoid them giving up on the game, as there is no help at all (at least accessible from ingame) maybe something could be done... As I understand that a video/playthrough tutorial is kind of hard to do, why not have the former loading screen (or a updated one which explains the basic principle) and all the loading screen hints available from a new menu item in the main menu? P.s.: on a sidenote: Maybe consider revising the loading screen hints as well: For example the one which says to mine the base entrances is kind of wrong and might have lead to a lot of overminers...
  7. I know that it is not a bug, but its really annoying extra check for full health and armor shouldnt be too complicated (if it is, or if the mining system is going to be changed, just ignore this) Mining is already done not often enough and should not be more painful just for reasons... If you mine two buildings or the hon you sometimes have to wait 7 seconds just so you can get new mines...
  8. Hi, Is it possible to change the refill delay to only occur, when health needs to be refilled? This would make mining much less tiresome (if it stays the way it is)
  9. Maybe the second cd is broken? You can find a ISO of it online for sure, as long as you have a valid serial of the game, this should be no problem...
  10. Hey, As i've just played in a game, where people from the other team downvoted an AFK kick several times and this has occured often in the past, i'd like to propose, that (similar to the mine ban vote) only the people of the same team can vote to kick a person. (maybe the others can still see it, so they'll know why he left) (If, however i propose to kick a person from the other team, everyone should be allowed to vote = as it is now) Kicking people takes enough time as it is, and i dont know why the other team should have a say in it, if a team wants to remove a nonresponsive or teamhampering player...
  11. And maybe also all Timed C4? Kind of silly if another building goes down, after game is ended...
  12. Also, as i have just played about 10 games, where almost each one was rushed and over in less than 10 minutes another advantage of this proposal would be that the buildings could come premined(or prelasered ;-) ) and deter game endings in less than 5 minutes... (it would also help games with less players, where only one defender has to mine all the buildings at start, which is kind of a tedious task)
  13. I think the problem was that you have overwritten 5.16. If you would have deleted the whole RenX folder before installing the new version,it should have worked flawless..
  14. Dunno how you get an Ion and a Nuke confused but by golly you did it. Of course i meant an ion ;-)
  15. Either way, it would be great if the blue lights had collision or were removed, because just 2 days ago a completely invisible nuke was in one of the lights...
  16. Also, reward capturing tech buildings. (or is it done already?)
  17. Another advantage of this approach is, that you could promote mining by giving people refilling minefields VP... (only the predefined ones)
  18. Well, maybe add bonus VP for repairs outside of base?
  19. well maybe different coloured ion (and/or less anims) which also damages shield down to 1 pt
  20. Or maybe damage the building down to 1 pt shield (if it gets defused in the last 10 seconds)
  21. well, if the important mines dont get removed by overmining, we wont even need the mineban most of the time, wouldnt that be great? If we ever want to get more players, we need either the current system better explained (which is difficult, and can still be circumvented by trolling) or implement a easier, safer and less trollable way to defend buildings... If this is done by lasers, mines, or dinosaurs is IMHO not really a problem...
  22. Well, the lasers were also ok, but implementation would be more complicated, i believe, and the outcome would not be very different to the proposed idea.
  23. Well the problem with purchasable mines is, that you get punished (=you have to pay money) to help the team, also in games with not many people everyone would need to purchase mines. (which is not really likely to happen) As it is already hard in many games to find people willing to defend and watch the mines, i think that this would not help the current problems...
  24. Hi, As i believe that the mining system is one of the main problems, that makes noobs leave the game and experienced players ragequit many matches, i ll try to propose a new system based on the current system and previous proposals. There are lots of places (doors of the buildings) where everyone can agree, that mines would be useful there. So, why not make designated mining areas there, which makes mines (automatically) appear when Adv. Repair Gun is pointed at it. The mines that are generated there should not be affected by overmining, but the team is still allowed some extra mines. (in Total not more mines than now) This approach would leave some freedom, but overmining is not that big a problem anymore, and also when only one building is left, not all 30 mines can be placed there. (less campy) I don't know how often i ragequitted a game when we lost a building due to c4 on mct with 30/30 mines - i really believe that this is the only (larger) problem of the game now, besides ddos attacks. What do you think?
  25. What file did you download exactly?
