Okay, it's time to release the application i've been working on for the past month or so.

Locate Your Buddies - You're able to keep track of your online buddies and find exactly where they are within Westwood Online. You can page and find your buddies directly from your Windows desktop - without even opening Renegade!

Add Many More Buddies - There's practically no restriction as to how many buddy names you can add. You can greatly exceed the existing Westood Online restriction of twenty entries per login. In actual fact, you will be able to have as many as 32,767 entries if you somehow find the need to!

Find Buddies Faster - From recent testing, the application is already much faster than the buddy list you've been used to within the existing Renegade interface. One reason being that there's no need to fetch any clan/score/rank information.

* Syncronize With Your Renegade Buddy List - One really useful feature is to download your current buddy list from the Westwood Online servers, you just choose which of your existing buddies you'd like to add, then add them!

* Page Your Buddies - One of the best features, is that you can page multiple users that are logged into Westwood Online. Whether you choose to page a player or server - each conversation will be displayed in it's own individual window, allowing you to continue to chat with multiple people at the time, with ease.

Miscellaneous
~ The option to refresh the buddy list automatically, at one minute intervals.
~ Locate buddies from each of the Westwood servers (USA, Pacific, European).
~ Open a web browser to display Player Statistics and a Game Summary, by right clicking the list.
~ Choose to login with a regular-player nickname, or alternatively use the details of your FDS (free dedicated server) to syncronize your buddy list, send and receive pages.
~ Flood control has also been included as a security precaution, restricting you to send one page, per 5 seconds - this is to prevent intentional and unintentional page flooding.

* To use these features, you must enter your Westwood Online ID, password and serial number.

Command Line Arguments
There are two possible commands you're able to send to the program.
/r    -    Refresh buddy list at startup.
/c    -    Connect to Westwood Online at startup.

To use this feature with any shortcut, the target should look like this:
"C:\Program Files\Renegade BuddyList\RenBuddyList.exe" /r /c

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Special thanks to the beta testers (aurorax0, beanyhead, DOM_Snipesimo and Dante).

Hope this helps everyone,
Enjoy!

It's about time someone made a program to do this, I've been getting really tired of logging onto WOL to see if anyone worth playing with is on. Thanks!

Nope, each of them were manually flown and landed - one by one... Razz

Eventually it began to mount up, which took around 2 hours to do, you'll see some better pictures here: http://www.spliff.wideboys.co.uk/renegade

Wewt. I was beginning to wonder when you were going to release this program; I was starting to regret not asking to be a beta tester. Very nice app here - lots of great features, including being able to save conversations. Keep up the awesome work! Smile
