Ignore Sehot, I think hes banned anyway. I agree that using flaming APCs is a completely noobish tactic, it easily ruins tank battles and usually gets the other team ( as well as your own, due to minelimits ) pissed off.

Flaming APCs do not waste the minelimit.. Timed c4 does not count toward the mine limit.

Park the APC near the PT and look at the PT, then hold V and keep it held down, then press X to face the other way still holding down V for the time period you wish to use it. Since you're now facing away from the terminal (yet renegade thinks you are facing towards it (if you still have V held down)), press E and press 5, then click, then E, 5, click, E, 5, click so on and so forth untill you have a desired ammount of C4 on your vehical.

Remember, DO NOT to let go of V or the effect will be broken and you will have to start again.

Tips:
Point the reticle up a little bit while facing the PT so you can get some distance with the arched throw of the C4.
Keeping the mouse still will make the C4's pile one ontop of the other.
Moving the mouse (still keeping V held down) you can change where the C4 is placed on the vehical, this will diminish highly visible "tails" on your vehical.

This is an engine limitation and is a glitch, it is not a cheat of any kind, what-so-ever.


I found out after testing that this glitch cannot be done through walls, it will only occur in the reticle still "touches" the PT area.

I'll make a vid sometime if you're still having problems.

park near a pt

Then aim at the front of the apc, while still being able access the PT

Then get a rhythem going. Click, "E", "5", Click, "E", "5", Click, "E", "5", Click, "E", "5", Click, "E", "5", Click, "E", "5", Click, "E", "5"

Do it as fast as you can, to other people you will just be spitting out c4.

it looks really odd.


MAN, Is there any shortcut to this?!!!!!!!!!! It gets kind of annoying after a while, and sometimes, yes I addmit it, I screw up and turn into an Enjineer!

ANOTHER GOOD WAY TO DO IS IS: GO TO THE GAURD TOWER, GO OUTSIDE TO THE RIGH OF IT WHERE YOU CAN ACCESS IT THROUGHT THE WALL, HAVE YOUR VEHICLE FACING YOU, PRESS "E" "5" "X" "THROW" "X" "E" "5" "X" "E" "THROW", THIS IS PROBABLY THE FASTEST WAY TO DO THIS BY YOURSELF. Thumbs Up


Seriously people how can you fight a war on terrorism with all of your borders wide open!

The Goverment Has Failed All Of You.

Renegade isn't even a game based on real life. How?

1) Most servers (99% of them) have friendly fire ooff
2) Repair Guns? wtf, Never seen those in RL..
3) WTF is Tiberium in real life?
4) Can somone explain to me, how you can cary unlimited ammo in pistols or repair guns? o.0


(1) You're a n00b and only play Renegade. Cuz if you played any other game you'd realize that Renegade is one of the few FPS's that turn friendly fire off by default.
(2) Renegade chose to make their repair "weapon" a gun rather than something like a wrench (as seen in other games like BF2).
(3) Tiberium is part of the Command & Conquer storyline and is the equivalent of a radioactive/biohazardous substance ... thus the need for chem suits (chem warriors).
(4) I guess you need an explaination on how to carry and infinite amount of ammo in real life, huh? So that it will support your counter-argument? It's part the game engine so that you don't have to run to the 'armory' (pt) every 10 seconds for a refill. And it's not infinite anyway, its 999 Wink Listen

(5) RENEGADE IS REAL!!! In Love

I read it once and was able to do it. Why would you need a video?

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

Its banned in a lot of servers so why encourage the NOOBS to do it?

Tell them nothing, the noobs ruin the game and "Flaming Apcs" certainly do ruin the game.

Go and post in the NOOB server forums.

Unfortunately, flaming APCs are pretty retarded.


Indeed its for players who havent got any skill and have to relay on a cheap over used tactic to defeat the enemy.

I perfer to overcome an enemy tank the classic way, out-moving him, out-shooting him and being a smart ass compard to his stay idle and shoot me tactic.

As its a public forum, anyone is allowed to post both positive and negatively.

If you came here expecting all players to tell you how to learn such a noobish tactic then you are sadly delusional.

Some will and some wont, tough, learn to live with it.

Noobs ruin the game, but even the newbies dont use Flaming Apcs. Learn to play the game properly and you wont need a Flaming Apc to attack. Better still learn some Team-play, thats a great tactic that alleviates the problem of your base being over-run by vehicles and needing to use Flaming Apcs. Angry

Maybe you could teach me some of this teamplay sometime, you seem like a pro playa, I usually just flame apc's for the whole game!
