CLIENT SIDE

Steps to get it working:
1.Download http://download.renguard.com/cp2/patcher.zip
2.If you have Core Patch 1 installed, download http://download.renguard.com/cp2/cp2.zip otherwise download http://download.renguard.com/cp2/patchall.zip
3.Unzip both zip files into your renegade folder.
4.Double click on patcher.exe which will run the patching process.

Should you get any errors about files being bad or missing, download the relavent file from here:
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/Always2.zip
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_Canyon.zip
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_City.zip
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_City_Flyin g.zip
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_Complex.zi p
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_Field.zip
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_FieldTS.zi p
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_Hourglass. zip
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_Islands.zi p
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_Mesa.zip
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_Snow.zip
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_Under.zip
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_Volcano.zi p
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_Walls.zip
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/C&C_Walls_Flyi ng.zip

If you are running RenGuard, Core Patch 2 will install the The First Decade exe file in place of your current game2.exe file (it is both a No-CD and an official exe file).
If you are not running RenGuard, you will end up with game.exe being your current game.exe and game2.exe being the The First Decade exe file. If you wish to use the TFD exe file, delete game.exe and rename game2.exe to game.exe. Otherwise, delete game2.exe (if you want to keep your current exe file).

SERVER SIDE

For linux servers with Core Patch 1 already installed (i.e. brenbot, proper LFDS binary etc), download and run this
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/sscp2.run (its a shell script with a TGZ file on the end)
For linux server without Core Patch 1, download and run this
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/sscp2all.run
For windows servers with Core Patch 1 already installed, download and run this
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/sscp2w.exe
For windows servers without Core Patch 1, download and run this
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/sscp2allw.exe
The linux installer uses makeself to make the installer and the windows installer uses Nullsoft Installer (since its my first time with Nullsoft, hopefully I got everything right)

You need to run the patcher.exe from http://download.renguard.com/cp2/patcher.zip once you have everything extracted to your Renegade directory, and not the RTP file.

Ok thanks for the help but now when i run renguard it pops up and says this

Buffer overrun detected!
Program:d:\westwood\renegade\game.exe

A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the programs internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and how must be terminated.


Now what do I do.
Thanks again

Don't know if anyone has posted this before, but=

CP2 standalone MUST be installed AFTER RG is installed. Otherwise, RG keeps moaning "game2.exe already existing" and quits the Setup.

So the CP2 has to be the last thing in a Renegade installation process, because it patches the game2.exe.

I downloaded always2.dat file because mine seemed to be causing the Old file error but now i have another problem. Renegade loads fine but at the main menu screen there is no font, its missing. The bars that say single player, multiplayer.... etc are all missing font so there is no way to click anything, Anyone have a solution to this? Thanks.

Is there a thread like this for CP1? I need to get the fanmaps, but don't want to install the Core Patch.

I was successful with installing this patch after having to use all of the extra links for unable to find files. When I try to play the game though, it says I have to restart to finish installing the patch and when it restarts, it gives me this message, titled, "Game2.exe - Unable To locate DLL," and then, "The dynamic link library mss32.dll could not be found in the specified path C:\Westwood\Renegade\patches;.;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOW S\
system;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\
system32\WBEM;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND." If I click OK and the computer loads up then try to run Renegade it asks me to restart the computer to finish the patch installation again, etc. What do I do?

Sounds like you managed to lose the dll file somewhere along the line. I have uploaded the dll from my Renegade folder and attached it to this message, download it and put it into your Renegade folder
  • Attachment: Mss32.dll
    (Size: 342.00KB, Downloaded 785 times)

This is invalid http://download.renguard.com/cp2/patchall.zip when I try to use the patcher again.

I added that .dll file under the Renegade folder, but I already had it, I noticed that the message I first posted about said that it was missing in the Patches folder of Renegade so I put it there too, and then it said another was missing after boot up so I put that one down too, and another after that (binkw32.dll and BandTest.dll). I then made a mistake by trying to move things along by just copying all of the .dll files under Renegade into the Patches foler. Since then I haven't been able to stop the message titled, "Invalid working folder" saying, "Set working folder and try again" after boot up even after deleting some of the .dll files I thought weren't there besides the ones It told me to add, and yes, every time I try to start up the game it tells me it's restarting to continue patching. AAAAAaaaaa!

That's better. I just realized by reading the topic about non-renguard stuff. Well, I think I have renguard. Once I deleted the Patches Folder, my computer doesn't restart anymore (yay), and I load the game, it goes to some renguard 1.03 thing and gives me a message titled, "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library," with the message, "Buffer overrun detected! Program Westwood\Renegade\Game.exe A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must now be terminated." Thanks for your help thus far.

Are you using Windows 2000, or Windows XP 64 bit edition? The current version of RenGuard is not supported on those operating systems.

I am having trouble downloading FieldTS. I tried uninstalling renguard and reinstalling it, but it keeps coming up with the same problem.

I have downloaded the file from renguard.com (and I tried the link from here), but when i try to extract it, i get an error saying 'error reading the file'. Now what do I do? Huh

I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but I have Windows XP.
