Hi everyone!
The other day something reminded of Renegade, a game I hadn't played in years, so I dug out my old discs and reinstalled it.
After much effing around to get it working again, something else reminded me of APB which I hadn't played in just as long. (I'm pretty sure Tanya had dual pistols last time I played it? And there was a city map where we had partial bases and tank battled through tall buildings on streets.)
I'm so pumped at what you have accomplished with this game! Even the co-op by myself is enjoyable as the AI is pretty well done. I like how they don't follow predictable paths.
RA2 is one of my all time favourite games too so I am thrilled to see you are working on AR as well, as the last I played APB, AR was just an idea.
Thank you to everybody from devs to testers for what you have created! APB is stunning and reminds me of Broforce: "Old style" but can run with the big boys in this day and age.
Now, trust me when I say I tried looking for answers to my questions/complaints but I'm either blind or we have an example for my first complaint...
- The forum does not feel very organized or user friendly. Is there a guide to units for the mods? Is there a Renegade forum I am completely missing? I couldn't figure out where to change my in game name at first and tried searching, has nobody ever asked that or is the search a little too specific? I know you are all volunteers doing this as a labour of love, but one day some forum re-kajiggering would be awesome.
- On a Renegade map played, I had rainbow colors on a lot of rocks and some buildings. How does one fix these textures?
- Is there scheduled nights to try and meet up for a fuller server? I'll do what I can to spread the word about these games and the launcher, but planned nights would be awesome for existing players to fill the servers up.
- I know you may not want to touch this one because of the multiplayer aspect, but I can't get either version of my Renegade trainers to work in single player. I've set the compatibility to XP SP3 and run as admin, but no beuno. I like god mode and infinite ammo to mess around in SP.
- My edits to my Renegade multiplayer practice (time limit off, higher starting credits) do not work. The file saves but nothing changes in game. Advice?
- Both Renegade and APB have little moments of lag where I have a "mini freeze" for a split second. Is there a way to make this go away?
Thank you in advance for any help, and again thank you so much for bringing this mod to life!
