Right i recently re purchased renegade since my old copy was lost mind you it was years ago i last played and on a different comp.
I got a Sold out copy of the game and installed fine, patched from the disc and tried to launch the game. the boot screen pops up. (the red one that says the title of the game that you can see from the desktop.) this loads up and the cursors shows the loading gif. The boot screen disappears and nothing happens. I updated my drivers and still no go. I'm running on XP using a Nvidia 6600 GT. any ideas what i can do to fix it.

Try using the game.exe that u can find in the renegade dir. The boot screen is known to be bugged.
You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

Can you check if there's a crashdump.txt file in your renegade directory?

followed all the steps and still nothing... GRRR this is annoying... i really appreciate all the help and have sent a support message to EA hopefully they;ll be able to sort it out. at least i know where to get all the scripts from now.
This is really odd though i mean it doesn't even bring up an alert of say that the program is crashing it just fails to boot.
