Portal2 Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 I've just updated to Beta 5 and the game is constantly failing to load every time I select a server. All I see is a few seconds of the intro before I'm sent back to the desktop. Quote
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted August 3, 2015 Totem Arts Staff Posted August 3, 2015 Did you update from beta 4 to 5, or 5 to. 5.002? Also, if it's just exitting without saying anything it usually boils down to a permission issue. If you're not sure what that is, then just say so an I can show you what you need to do. Quote
Portal2 Posted August 3, 2015 Author Posted August 3, 2015 I have updated from Beta 4 to 5 and I know nothing about any required permission to access the game. Thanks for offering help. Quote
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted August 4, 2015 Totem Arts Staff Posted August 4, 2015 In Windows, navigate to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Renegade X\Binaries\Win32", or it may also be "C:\Program Files\Renegade X\Binaries\Win32". Basically just get to wherever you installed RenX, then Binaries/Win32. In that folder, find "UDK.exe" (or it may just be UDK if file extensions aren't shown). Right click that, and select Run as Administrator. If it works in this manner, I can give you a more permanent solution, as we've actually found your problem. Quote
Portal2 Posted August 5, 2015 Author Posted August 5, 2015 OK I have tried running the suggested file as administrator and encounter the same problem. Quote
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted August 6, 2015 Totem Arts Staff Posted August 6, 2015 Have you already tried re-installing? If it's just magically closing there's usually something fatally wrong. Try running the game, let it crash, then give us your log file. Logs are stored in C:\Program Files (x86)\Renegade X\UDKGame\Logs (which may differ a bit on your system, but it will always be Renegade X/UDKGame/Logs) Sort them by date modified, and attach the most recent one. If it's OMGWTF huge, we only really need to see about the last 50 lines.. if that. Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 I am also experiencing the same issue. I installed the beta a few days ago and the update was installed today. The only Icons I have for renegade x are as follows: Renegade-x and, Start Launcher. (Both with the same icon as Rx colored in silver and red) I'm trying to reinstall the game at this time and will follow up if it still doesn't run. ***Ive watched the youtube video of the startup and which has the main menu. but all I see is a server list when I try to open the game. After clicking on a server it gives me a message stating I should forward port 7777.*** how do I forward port 7777? Also when loading it fails completely Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 I'm guessing I have to download the software development kit. Where are these files placed, after downloading? Quote
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted August 8, 2015 Totem Arts Staff Posted August 8, 2015 I'm guessing I have to download the software development kit. Where are these files placed, after downloading? No you don't need the SDK unless you're trying to make things. Umm, are clicking Join Server, or Launch Server? If you're trying to launch a server then you will probably need to forward ports. If you just want to join an actual server then you just press join server under the picture on the right . Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 I tried forwarding ports, but still get the same errors in the start up. if you look at the screenies it says incomplete cached shader or something.. do I need to download the maps separately? Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 I've tried reinstalling a few times with no luck. When I hit Join Server it keeps saying the game is running (in the bottom left hand corner) then flashes back to "Welcome Back Commander" after 1 second. Quote
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted August 8, 2015 Totem Arts Staff Posted August 8, 2015 Are you reinstalling beta 5 or 4? Yes these are legit questions. Also let us get the last 50 lines or so of your logs (as described several posts up, as that actually helps a lot.) Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 I Reinstalled beta 5, 3 times and every time it starts with and update then goes asks me to create a nickname. Then I'm stuck at the server list. I won't be back at my pc until tomorrow but if you have any advice on something I can try when I get back. I'll take screenies of the log from top to bottom as well. Cheers Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 I won't give up tho. I love this game and I'll get on TeamSpeak with u guys also when I get the free time. Quote
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted August 9, 2015 Totem Arts Staff Posted August 9, 2015 Good to hear. I'm also very curious as to what your issue is, and if we can solve it we can add it to the solutions topic. A new patch will also probably be pushed this week. May be alright to hold out till then as well. Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 Cool I'll post the screen shots of the log asap. Quote
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted August 11, 2015 Totem Arts Staff Posted August 11, 2015 I'll be waiting Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 12, 2015 Posted August 12, 2015 This is the log from beginning to end. Sorry it took so long Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 12, 2015 Posted August 12, 2015 If there's any folders that you need me to SS let me know. I will be away from my pc a lot in the next few weeks. I'm moving from Florida to Washington so it's been a little hectic. Ill get back to you with whatever SS is needed. Also this is the first time Ive played renegade X. Ive never downloaded the beta 4. The day I got my pc I started looking at the youtubes of you playing pug matches with kenz. So I started with Beta 5. maybe is there a link somewhere for beta 4? Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 12, 2015 Posted August 12, 2015 I think my videocard might be really shit, I'm going to try purchasing a new one after the move. Do you think that could be it. heres a SS Quote
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted August 12, 2015 Totem Arts Staff Posted August 12, 2015 You're aware that you downloaded the sdk and not the game, right? It actually is good you SS'd your folders; it made it obvious. Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 That's what I got when I downloaded the game from this website from the construction tyranny link. Can you post a link to the download here. Quote
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted August 13, 2015 Totem Arts Staff Posted August 13, 2015 Uninstall and Delete all of the other folders first.. I think you actually have the SDK/Game install overlapping each other. I can't even find half of the files you have in there in the Dev build X.x Download This, Install This, and Only THIS Do that, then let me see the just the Renegade X folder. Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 Alright I'm trying it now. let me delete everything I have 1st Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 I'm having issues downloading, it keeps not fully downloading the game and giving me an error stating that the file is corrupt. This was on Microsoft Edge. I just tried on on Mozilla firefox and it just stopped around 85-90 % and says Failed. I might not have time to mess with it today, but I'll try again when I have a chance on Sunday or Monday. I am downloading over a wifi network, could that possibly be screwing it up. Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 never mind I got it one sec, ill send over a SS Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 This is after Deleting everything and reinstalling from the link you provided Quote
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted August 15, 2015 Totem Arts Staff Posted August 15, 2015 So... are you TRYING to run the server, because that's definitely the log for a server. Exactly what are you clicking in the launcher to start join ? Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 The only icon that allows me to do anything is highlighting a server with people already playing and clicking "Launch Server". Every other button doesn't bring me anywhere. (Launch Game, Launch IP, and Join Server). Those three links don't do anything at all. I'll click either three of those, and the bottom left of the screen will flash and say "The Game is Running" and then will flash back to "Welcome back commander" instantly after maybe 1 second. Quote
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted August 16, 2015 Totem Arts Staff Posted August 16, 2015 Oh.. totally different issue, wish you had started off by saying that. If you know how to change permissions on folders, change the Renegade X folder's permissions so that EVERYONE has access to modify rights (There's literally a group called Everyone if you search for it). Full control would probably even solve more problems. If you don't... just ask, or Google. Not 100% sure why the installer gets so quirky with the way it does permissions on the folders while installing. Hell... I had that issue. Quote
ReefaMan3 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 I need a new graphics card. stand by while I get my credits up. Quote
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted August 20, 2015 Totem Arts Staff Posted August 20, 2015 Are you completely sure about that ? Quote
