bravolimakilo Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Hi all, Been a long time fan of Renegade and decided to give Renegade X a try. I can download the launcher from this website and install it fine. However, when I click to launch the launcher, it gives me an error. "Renegade X Launcher has stopped working" Anyone know how I can fix this? I have uninstalled the launcher a few times and re-downloaded from this site but nothing works. I would really like to give Renegade X a try. Please help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schmitzenbergh Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Try installing/repairing the .net redistributable. Search for it on your favourite searchengine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted January 9, 2017 Totem Arts Staff Share Posted January 9, 2017 What kind of anti-virus do you have? The current Launcher has a tendency to get flagged, and consequently blocked, by some anti-viruses. Never happened to me until I just updated to the newest launcher.

bravolimakilo Posted January 10, 2017 Author Share Posted January 10, 2017 1) I have no anti virus. 2) I uninstalled Microsoft Frameworks and installed .net redistributable from Windows website. I then reinstalled Frameworks 4.6.2 and tried running Renegade X Launcher. Still same problem. Any other suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back to the question at hand: To what folder are you installing? Perhaps try a different folder other than program files. An you always have the windows defender anti-virus. Try turning that off in your control panel. Other thing to try is the C++ redist -> https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555 (Even thought it should'nt make any sense) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sn4ke Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 bravo wants to play RenX. For some reason he can't install the launcher.... While you're figuring out whats the launcher issue he can play via full build... That's a preliminary solution for me and maybe for bravo as well (as long as he can install the full build ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iTweek. Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Think a reason will still be that a server is not reachable. @schmitzenbergh I must also say the launcher is not bad. Since I've already seen much worse. Until then you did very good work. patch-server Offline -> http://frankfurt1.tyrant.gg online -> http://denver1.renegade-x.com http://denver2.renegade-x.com http://seattle1.renegade-x.com http://czech1.renegade-x.com http://czech2.renegade-x.com http://renxcdn.finezt.com http://rxp-nyc.cncirc.net http://rxp-atl.cncirc.net/ http://rxp-chi.cncirc.net/ http://rxp-de.cncirc.net http://amsterdam1.tyrant.gg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iTweek. Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 (edited) Have now something rum made and tried as soon as one the dead patch server raus goes the Validating and Dowloading As soon as I take the server again take no more.So my guess is as soon as a server down is the lease no longer.As I said is only a guess. @Schmitzenbergh Spoiler { "launcher": { "version_name": "0.65", "version_number": 65, "patch_url": "http://cdn.renegade-x.com/site/launcher-4115.zip" }, "game": { "instructions_url": "http://renegade-x.com/patches/Patch5281/instructions.json", "patch_urls": [ "http://denver1.renegade-x.com/Patch5281", "http://denver2.renegade-x.com/Patch5281", "http://seattle1.renegade-x.com/Patch5281", "http://czech1.renegade-x.com/Patch5281", "http://czech2.renegade-x.com/Patch5281", "http://renxcdn.finezt.com/Patch5281", "http://rxp-nyc.cncirc.net/Patch5281", "http://rxp-atl.cncirc.net/Patch5281", "http://rxp-chi.cncirc.net/Patch5281", "http://rxp-de.cncirc.net/Patch5281", "http://amsterdam1.tyrant.gg/Patch5281" ], "version_name": "Open Beta 5.281", "version_number": 5281, } } Edited January 10, 2017 by [AoG]iTweek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmitzenbergh Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Ok, you can try this. Create a bat file (Or download the one attached) and put this in it: start "" "Renegade X Launcher.exe" "--UpdateGame=http://amsterdam1.tyrant.gg/Patch5281" Then place the bat file in your Renegade x launcher folder and launch the bat file. This should start the download process. If this also crashes the Launcher, you are missing some dependencies to run a basic C# application or you have demons in your pc (DEMONS BE GONE) This isn't a real fix, more of an indication for me where the problem lies. @[AoG]iTweek The problem isn't that the game isn't wont download from a server. The problem is that the Launcher wont start at all. This indicates that @bravolimakilo is missing important parts of the .net framework or has something blocking the Launcher. But thx for thinking with me to solve the problem @bravolimakilo If you still have issues with the laucher I would like you to pm me to get some more detail or get a teamviewer session running to fix this problem (As this is valuable information for future users).

Agent Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 This has been mentioned before, but the launcher seriously needs to at least attempt to switch mirrors when a mirror is down @Schmitzenbergh. This could be done by simply replacing the ping-based selection with download-based selection (i.e: first one to successfully finish "GET empty_file" or "GET 10kb_file" with 200 OK). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madkill40 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 For the OP. Run 'Launcher.exe' as administrator. Sometimes this helps in Win7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOlsenTwins Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Yes, at the beginning of this week, the launcher was unsuccessfull to update for ~3 days.... (Finally managed to do it yesterday) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
