Renegade X - September '09 Update!

[MightyBOB]

It's "Nod" not "NOD."

I think hosting a LAN game is going to be essentially the same as hosting a server or firing up the mod, although I haven't tried doing that.

[CrazyAndy]

Hurray! Our God is an awesome God!

[Gasolin3]

Tomorrow oh my god!!! I'm way overhyped for this right now... agjesibjrf I wanna play it so baaaad :lol:

[jakerz]

Can't Wait now. Looks really good. I'll be waiting

[thgc]

As I said earlier, you guys are amazing!

Just one quick question though: Are you planning on releasing this mod through Steam? I've seen many mods on there, but none of them is as sophisticated as this one.

It would be great, as UT3 can be activated through Steam even after buying it from somewhere else.

Cheers,

thgc

I don't really see the need for it to be on Steam. You'll be able to download it very easily, just by clicking the link. We'll have our own server listing client as well.

I was merely iterating the error ingame!

This mod works on steam, so I assume it will work on linux; obviously with the wine utility, correct?

Any private beta testers who use steam, can you please explain how you installed this?
Just copy to installation directory like normal?

[Synpro]

Hello all, iam a die hard Renegade player for many years now and cant wait to play this mod to

But i have a little question: Is the gameplay and using the command keys the same as the "Old" Renegade ???

Or is it totaly different? If so, wil there be a command list available?

I hope that some of the admins or devolpers can answer that question, thx m8's.

Btw, my compliments for this super great work you all did, to make this happening. And i speak for many old skool players of Renegade

Greetzzz Synpro

Yup thats the one!

It's basically an up-to-date version of UT3, featuring the latest updates and the Titan Pack. Bought it yesterday myself!

[MightyBOB]

UT 2003 is NOT the game you need. You need UT3, there's a very important difference (and that difference is that they are completely different games. ) The Black version is the one you get off of Steam and will work with the mod.

To answer Synpro, like any modern game, you can change keyboard shortcuts in the menu.

Have you guys tried using linux? I need to know if it is compatible or not.

i think it might be compatible with "wine" im not 100% sure as iv never tryed it ... but y use linux for gaming ? not a good platform coz of emulation prossesing

[[CNC]PlagueNXC]

Wine is NOT an emulation...

I know that steam is compatible using wine, I was just curious if I may encounter any problems. There are others who may use linux, and it's best to know how to fix these issues on all Operating Systems.

if you can connect to any server in UT3 .. check your firewall ... cause if you cant in UT3, im almost sure it will be the same thing in Ren-X

I got the download done from steam, and I installed 4 things including some DirectX or something, and I'm not sure if i have everything to dl RenX and to be ready to play tomorrow.

[=HT=Duro]

to be sure to be ready to play install :

latest driver for your videocard

latest DirectX version

UT3 Patch #5 (2.1)

UT3 Titan pack

with that , you will be ready for anything

[helly]

Hoping for an early morning release, anyways see you guys on the battlefield tomorrow

I see 30.September without time and Timezone.

[[NE]Fobby[GEN]]

Yes, I said near the end of the post - September 30th, middle of the day EST (which is GMT -5) please read the post, people.

[1559mz]

YAY ONLY A FEW HOURS CANT WAIT :lol: this is going to be so sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Realpra]

6 hours omg, tripping... might have to drag my stationary over to the university since my campus connection is capped to 30 gb a month...

Sweet to hear in the recent interview that other renegade-ish mods will be allowed to build upon renegade-x.

I would guess more like 11, but then again I'm not the one uploading it.

[Bolleno]

can't wait few more hours

[rrutk2]

upload in progress?

[RTsa]

They should've done a torrent download. Start it yesterday, seed until it's like 95% ready..and then seed it to the end today when the release is due. That way the load on the servers would be A LOT smaller today.

[BLaZor]

Nope, EST is GMT -5, my post was correct. GMT +5 would be somewhere in Asia. North America is behind Britain, not ahead of it, so therefore Eastern time is in the negatives.

The plan is tomorrow afternoon EST. Expect it in about 15 hours from this post. If it's later then that, then please be patient with us, we will be releasing it September 30th EST for sure.[/b]

Again, so infact, you're looking at the 30th September 9pm GMT if you're in the UK. Knowing that, you can work out what time it will come out in your country because GMT is central.

[Demigan]

argh, I can see on moddb 'released at september the 30th: status: released'

I take the fact that some of the modders themselves are currently watchin this forum as a sign that they are in the progress of uploading it or something.

@Blazor: ARGH that means I have to wait for another 6 and a half hour! I think? I'm from Holland, +1 GMT

Anticipation most likely. Alot of people are starting to sign up to the forums and are asking hundreds of questions about the release dat (more specifically, release time)

Exactly...

Do your research man.

[GeniusPr0]

Looking forward to playing a resurrection of Renegade, hopefully sniping will be just as fun in this game .

[1559mz]

9PM??? >.< I wanted it sooner than that =( oh well at least its coming out =)

[Jointn00b]

9pm GMT... that's 10pm in The Netherlands... well it's fine by me. i've waited for like a year and a half now; a few extra hours shouldn't be a problem

Yup guys. What fobby posted makes sense now. Initially he said GMT -5, which is confusing because he said 12am US time. I assumed you added 5 hours, but it would have been GMT from eastern time. Confusing stuff I know.

To clear things up:

Mod will be released today around 9pm GMT (UK Time)

[jakerz]

Do we need to download Titan pack for UT3 in order to play renegade x? I Read something about that and wanted it confirming or not.

As far as I'm aware, I think you do.
Mighty BOB! said you need to update UT3 with the latest patch then install the Titan pack.

If its out 12:00 at GMT -5 (5 hours behind) wouldnt it be out 17:00 at GMT +0 and at 18:00 gmt +1 in central Eu? Or 5 or 6 pm depending on location in yankee time?

(I should have said 7 hours in my post before)

Of course thats less than 1 hour from now and might be optimistic seeing as he said about "middle of the day" which isnt exactly 12:00 plus server problems and up-/downloading the thing takes time.

That's what I thought. I was wrong.

When he posted that, it was 6:30 am GMT. 15 hours from then would be 9:30 pm GMT.

Makes sense? :huh:

You know, I'm going to go to a party at 8 pm my time here, which means that I'll come home late, then have to go to bed, wake up and go to school early, and be back by 4 PM tomorrow!

One bright side: People will then be finished downloading it en-mass and the servers will be available so I at least CAN download something by that time

Yours sincerely,
Demigan.

My calculations are correct I just used the "middle of the day" phrase from page 4 instead of the "15 hours from now" phrase from some other thread.
