Maybe theres something wrong with the graphic driver or something? Maybe updating the drivers might help

If you ran The Scripts 3.4.4 installer as suggested earlier, then run it again and DO NOT check "BLOOM" or "SHADERS".

Might be old hardware failing with bloom and shaders...

The scripts EXE or Renegade?

If it's Renegade, make sure the "start in" and working directories are correct...

screen turning off is a resolution issue, try changing it to something else.

If we had to ban all who ever cheated or ever created a cheat (obj3cts and such) then I don't think there would be many members left here (sad fact).

try running the game without any added command stuff, and see if it works. Then you might find the issue
