Well, most of you know that some servers do display the new WOL ladder ranks, but I never liked how the system was not put fully into place yet, and things like the rank at the main WOL menu didn't work etc, it was only limited to being in those servers. TO fix this, follow these steps:

1)Head to WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\drivers\etc
2)Open the "hosts" file with notepad
3)add 70.84.132.90 renchat2.westwood.com
4)save

Now everytime you open renegade, your deaths/kills and overall rank will be shown client side In Love

I remember when WOL did exist back then....sweet sweet WOL......I hated it! back then there was vehicle binding or logs, so kicking people for stealing vehicle wasnt easy, people just steal, you dont know who, you get mad.

We're not DONE, you know. This is how players can see their ranks in the opening screen in the meantime, however.


I'm the bawss.

I remember the announcement...

When the ladder goes live, you can remove this, but it won't be necessary because the "renchat2.westwood.com" will change and you'll be on the correct IP automatically.

This is old news to me but why wasn't this announced by people from Crimson or BHS themselves?

Your welcome to those who tryed it, yes it was made in the server owners seciton, for a few servers to try it out, but I wasn't sure if they wanted that released to all server owners, so for now, this is just for the clients Thumbs Up
