You didn't know? It was all part of my master plan to have everyone hate me more than they already did. My ex didn't have me stuck in her house giving all of my money to her mom to take care of bills. I just made that up. And my computer? I had a top of the line system, so the donations were just a scam. As far as cats? I hate cats, man. I wouldn't want them!

No, whoever told you it was a lie enjoys trying to make me look bad. Long story short, I hated living in Indiana. I hated what I had to do - give away all of my paycheck to her mom to take care of bills that they didn't seem to know how to pay - and I was happy that my father came to get me out of that shit carnival. I came close to living on the street because of her. My two cats meant a lot to me and I didn't want them to suffer and starve, being stuck in a garage for months. Being that they had troubles paying regular bills, food wasn't something that we simply "gave" to animals. I ended up giving them half of what I would eat, just so I could sleep and not worry about them possibly dying of hunger.

Regardless, it was six years ago. I have no reason to lie about it. It wasn't fun. It sucked ass. I did things I didn't want to do (who really enjoys begging for money?) and got people to hate me in perpetuity for it, since the truth from me was obviously faked.

You kinda should have joined a gang, i recommend tha bloodz.
pop punk ass white rich people and slap dat bitch pimpin tha bitches get dat money westcoast style. luv dat slap boi

if you fancy a reneproject, how about fixing the bugs on glacierfly?

FPS bug is the most pressing issue, plus some other stuff like the prox mine bug, "leaving the map", dead buildings not looking dead.

also, if making it balanced between Nod and GDI is at all worthwhile, don't let tanks hit the air/ref from the bridge.

The proxy thing is fixed in TT... Along with some other things related to Glacier, but unsure what they are anyway.

Glacier itself isn't a "proxy bug" issue. It's the Repair Pad coding that caused it if I remember right. Most levels with a Repair Pad ended up with the problem.

Which might explain why we don't see repair pads in stock Renegade maps... they probably knew something was screwy with them, but didn't have the time or inclination to fix them.

Definitely up there. Shame that game didn't get as much attention as it deserved.

Just dropping by to clean up my old profile.
Generalcamo wrote on Wed, 23 February 2011 00:08

Beta Renegade was a LOT different, in a better way. Orcas had a realistic opening hatch. Most Units were modeled after FMVs in TD. Havoc was a gritty commando, named Logan, who is seen in the tutorial. Many aspects were different, such as grenadiers and flamers and Chemmers exploding on death. I mean the whole game was more realistic. And EA killed it.

Call it Executive meddling and Development hell.
If all of elements of Tiberian Dawn were incorporated to a semi-realistic 3D shooter there would be no way to pass ESRB's Teen rating, meaning no Germany release or Walmart sales.

But that is not the reason why there are no open-topped vehicles. It is the result of poor coding/design they were unable fix, so instead the vehicles were redesigned so that the occupants don't need to be visible or have entering animations(such as the character jumping in and opening/closing doors).
This is what happens when visible vehicle occupants are enabled:
Vehicle models can tilt but character models inside them can only only rotate horizontally. In effect, if the vehicle rolls over on its roof, your character will have its head sticking out the floor.
Vehicle occupants are invincible, meaning you can't kill them while they're riding a vehicle.
Entering animations don't work, they're either disabled or the coding is incomplete/broken.

Now I think of it, I did have an attempt years ago establishing a project with the purpose of making a mod based on TD and make it as Third person shooter/hybrid RTS that took as if everything was real. But it was too big for its own good and a money drain.

That's all folks!

Well, that's a possibility. I think it's more about the fact that they simply ran out of time after having redeveloped the entire premise of the game a year or two prior to release.

Actually the irony lies in the fact that every time someone posts a Renforums is dead post the forum lives up again, at least for a bit. Like everyone wants to prove everyone wrong...

I made the topic to get someone to respond. That's about it. It's a shame that this place isn't as active as it was before, though.

What's even more ironic is that, of all the posters on RenegadeForums, probably less than 10% of them actually play Renegade more than once a month.

I personally have not played Renegade in months, yet I still hang around the forums.

Years, here - it's not like there's enough people to bother playing anymore, not from my perspective. It was a decently interesting game, but few games live to make it 10 years and have more than a cult following behind it. Wink
