Beta Release of RenRevolver

I am releasing my work as of now, in hopes of some people wanting to join me and help with the mod. Its playable, but not very good yet.

play maps:

Desert Town, Test1 and Bridge.

Neither are real maps, just ones i put together for this release. Also health settings arent "True" yet. Like the bridges fall in three shots....

If you have problems with myfile copier, then simply Copy all the files in your Renegade Dir (Not the folders) and paste them in your RenRevolver Folder.

Hmm I can't seem to get it working. I got the setup, it did it's thing. A window popped up asking for my Renegade Dir, so I sent it to C:/Westwood/Renegade/

It popped up something else that ran through all the files, said Install Complete and added a Ren Revolver link to my desktop. The link doesn't work, and I can't find anything in my renegade folder or anywhere that shows it even put anything in.

Doesn't work for me either, it says it can't find Renegade.exe and tells me to insert the disk even though it is already in.

I recommend zipping it. Direct exes have weird glitches over the internet sometimes... Confused

You need to go into the Revolver directory and use game.exe/game.exe 2 to make it work. The other one on the destktop doesn't work. Also, the AD keys don't seem to work. Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Needs work, but that's why it a beta, I like it!


No. Seriously. No.

I got it working and am hosting a server for it right now for a while! Me and Ex Death are in here shooting it up right now. If you can't get it to straife or jump, change the key settings. When you install it it changes the key binds. Come on in and shoot it up!

Looks more like a pre-alpha than a beta to me...

Oblivion if you want any help, hit me up. I really liked this beta even though its a tad crude. I will gladly help. After playing I got inspired and modeled this 1851 Colt Navy. If you want it, I'll give you it for the mod when it's finished up and textured.

Yeah it still needs lots of work. sorry if it messed up your system but, it shouldnt. My installer should of made: C:\Westwood\Renegade\RenRevolver

Then extracted the Data folder into that dir.

Then my File Copier pops up (Made in Visual Basic) And copies everything in your renegade folder (i.e) Game.exe

So if the Program didnt work, just copy everything in your renegade folder (Not data Folder) and should run.

*********************
That is a great picture you made there, though i have to say, thats renegades A.i., so thats not my fault Smile

Plus i was never tallented in the first place, and i made this mod on my own. I will take any help anyones got. I dont know if you noticed but it has alot of interactive scenery. Suc has that tree you can shoot down to cross the canyon. This mod will have SinglePlayer Levels.

Everything but the texture quality, and missing sun glare effect is westwood. it has nothing to do with my mod. The A.I. was westwood. The shadows are Westwood. The "Quick Sand" is westwood. The camera angles are westwood.

No, you placed the spawn points, you forgot the add the sun's texture/model (not sure on that one), you made the buildings too small for the 3rd person camera view, and you used their A.I.

Don't get me wrong, because I played your miniature mod and found it to be not only original, but also moderately interesting, if not terribly well made. But isn't one of the most crucial jobs of the modder, in making his or her project, to work to correct some of the problems in the game with which they're working? And if your answer to that was no, then you still suck, because the few things that you did do - gun model and texture, character model modifications, and maps, were pretty poorly done.

Spawn points are not my concern, they do what their supposed to. I cant make the building 30 feet tall for 3rd person. And yes i used their a.i.

Yes i forgot about the Lense Glare Texture. Fixed it. I also am looking for help on this mod. Im not patient enough to make qualtiy Smile

(I.E.) I followed the tutorial on Renhelp for Gun animations and such, 1000 times, never works.

If you're not patient enough to make quality, you're in the wrong business. Go to china and make happy meal toys for McDonalds. There is no point in producing something like this unless you're going to do it well. If you spend all your time and do something for public release, what is the point if it does not assert an opinion or give people pleasure?

I guess this does not necessarily apply to Reborn, since they were led by AoD, who said "I dont give a shit about the opinion of the Renegade community; I only care about the opinion of Reborn members." So yeah, unless you're like AoD, who makes mods only for the pleasure of the mod team, you're gonna want to do this with as much quality as possible.

I wasnt aware you were getting paid for this? Well im not. I made the mod to please my interest in a certain time period. If i was paid for doing the mod, i would take time in my work, till then i got to much of a life to spend to all of my time on a game. Looks like you can take that task with little effort. When i get out of Devry ill happily take more time on game development.


oh and most mcdonalds toys are Made in Taiwan.
