Sort of. I had to do a few tweaks to make it install dot net 8.0 the first time you run the game. But yeah overall its just the files from the installer extracted. It will automatically update as normal.
Gotcha.

Hey I have a solution for you if you have the steam version of renegade. Go into desktop mode. Download this file
https://drive.google.com/file/d/14GemV6x33iVC-1_JmRfjwUuArt-pG7L1/view?usp=drivesdk
Extract and then copy the files.
In steam right click renegade and click browse local files. Paste and overwrite/write into all the files. Then you can go back to game mode and the game should be good to go. Once you open the game it will automatically download a few updates to get to the latest scripts version. Just click through the installer that comes up.
For controller settings there is a profile I made called Renegade W3D Hub. You can find it in community layouts.
Please let me know if this worked for you.
Just so that I understand, is that package just a diff of a pre-installed TT updated environment?

We have reviewed the logs of what happened in the incident that you describe. Our concensus is that the whole thing could have been avoided if you understood how the vehicle locking feature works and had employed its use properly. Taking an unlocked vehicle is NOT against the rules for a few different reasons - primarily because unattended vehicles inside your base are a hazard because enemies can steal them (locked or not), but also specifically because the lock feature exists - wanted vehicles are supposed to be claimed by a lock. If you leave a vehicle unlocked and it is taken, that is how the game has been played for 20+ years. No compensation for said vehicle should be given nor expected. Lock your vehicle if you want to keep it.
We are still waiting to hear from Awxyde directly about a question that we have regarding this matter, but ultimately we feel that no action is necessary from us in this case. After your edit, we are glad to see that you agree.
We will consider this matter closed.

@ aerylac and @ TehMajor Hi guys, please have a look at the forum rules here or by clicking the big button at the top of the forum. This thread is over three months old, so we ask that you don't Necro it.
@ aerylac A simple search of the forum will tell you how you can become a tester for all W3D-Hub projects
@ TehMajor If you would like to discuss your concerns further, please make a new thread in the appropriate forum section.

Hello, WHY is your text so large? lol
Interim Apex does not need scripts updates and it should not be attempted to use the patch on that game, as doing so WILL break it. IA does not use the same version of the engine that is meant for stock Renegade and other mods, but rather has a slightly different version with some extra changes. This difference results in issues if you try to use the wrong version with the wrong game.
Hope this helps. Also please make a thread in the help forum in the future regarding any issues you have. This is the news section and we do not look for help requests here (I just happened to notice).

Hi @ Doppelganger and welcome to W3D-Hub.
If you look closely at that message window, there is a "more info" button, and if you click it, there will be an option to run the program anyway.

@ LeonardMT Hopefully there will be a patch for APB 1.2 soon, and it should come with a .mix version of this map.

What was the easter egg on Seamist?
If you haven't updated your game, you can load up the version that you have and go have a look!

trying to start renegade on feild3 map and it gives me the error invalid ag t shell gdi w3d that ive been blocked by the anti cheat. has never happened before nothing has changed and i am def not cheating. only thing i have from back in the day is spongebob skins and clear scope which was never considered cheating.
Does this also happen without those mods installed? It is possible for a corrupt file to trigger the anti-cheat, simply because a corrupted file is not "original", so the anti-cheat just knows that it is not correct and assumes that you are trying to cheat.

Important to note: Many times, the first run of the game will be "weird" because the configuration settings do not exist yet. The second run will be better, but as Unstoppable said, be sure to check the wwconfig utility, and make sure that the screen resolution matches your screen resolution (or otherwise is what you want it to be), and also make sure the box called "Windowed mode" is unchecked.

Well I guess what I've noticed is that even the core community, folks that have been playing these games for a very long time, many of them devs and moderators, rarely make an appearance these days. So it doesn't seem to be confined only to those "normal" players who are only interested in what's new. The disinterest, IA notwithstanding, seems to be with players across the board. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
If anything, I'd expect player counts to be higher around now since there is a relatively new mod out there(BFD), and a newly overhauled one(TSR).
You are not entirely wrong there either. Unfortunately many of us now have families of our own these days, and the responsibilities that come along with that. Some of us have burned out a bit and kinda float along. Others are discouraged at the low numbers, as you are. And others are still working on new content, although at a slower pace and at a lower volume than at times in the past.
@ wolf is partially correct - Many have moved on. But we still have plenty of talent here. The problem is simply that most of us grew up, and this has always been a labor-of-love hobby project; Most of us can't spend all day here like we did 10-20 years ago.
That said, there are a lot of things happening behind the scenes still. PR has never been our strong suit unfortunately, so we do miss a lot of "news" opportunities I will admit. Some things can't be talked about, but I can tell you this: I get commit notifications for the projects and there are a dozen a day sometimes, and even more I've noticed lately. The internal communication channels are always buzzing as well, to the point that I simply can't keep up with it all. We are still alive, I promise
EDIT: Also, there have been two scheduled AR tests in the past 5 days

The community around these games (both here and in previous places leading up to the formation of W3D-Hub) has been on a gradual decline since roughly 2009-2011 (kinda difficult to say) with surges of major activity mixed in. The W3D engine is over 20 years old now, and despite our best efforts to modernize it and even after making some gigantic strides of progress, to some people "old" just kills any interest, regardless of how far it has come. "Normal" gamers are always chasing the latest and greatest new thing. The rest of us hang out at W3D-Hub and MPF, etc.

That would be amazing! Especially since Renegade works very well in linux.
I'm guessing for now though there is no temp work around so i can play?
Try using Asterisk (found in our downloads section). It is pure vb-dotnet, which I'm guessing will work fine on Linux, although I have not tested it. You will have to add the connection information manually to set up a profile, but it is easy to use once that is done.
Let me know how it turns out.

Just paid amd downloaded the game from ea. When i go to launch the game from w3b hub rencorner server the game starts the opening scene then crashes about 20 seconds in . I can play the w3b server with the new maps but rencorner server crashes. Any idea?
Did you install the latest (or any) TT patch? Some servers require a certain TT patch level in order to play.
Was there any message? The term "crash" is quite generic, and there are a few different ways that Renegade can crash. Sometimes it will produce a crash log that we can inspect to see where the problem is occurring.

On 10/1/2023 at 4:42 PM, asdfw3 said:I installed c&c renegade by installing interim apex and then importing the interim apex game as c&c rengade game. This has worked fine so far. The scripts update program would then automatically download & overwrite incompatible files.With the latest scripts 4.8 update, the game does not start anymore. Instead, it gives an error popup "set working folder and try again..."Can we fix this somehow?
What you describe seems to be some sort of process to obtain part of Renegade for free, which is not possible through our system. In order to maintain a good relationship with EA and also stay legal ourselves, we can not provide anyone with a way to bypass the legal method of obtaining a paid product, nor assist them in doing so. This falls under "warez", which goes against our community rules.
Renegade can be purchased alongside 16 other C&C games in the C&C Ultimate collection for $20 USD normally, or frequently as little as $8 when it is on sale. This is the best legal deal that exists, and I highly recommend it!
If you insist on obtaining the game outside of the legal means, there are plenty of places on the internet where Renegade in its entirety can be illegally obtained, but again, we can not touch that with a 10 foot pole if we wish to continue to exist. And besides that, downloading pirated software is a great way to get infected, in which case you will be out money getting that fixed at a computer shop anyway - that $8 is looking better all the time, no?
Related to your question, whatever you do, you need to tell the W3D-Hub launcher to "forget" your boogered game instance if you wish to link the launcher with a copy of Renegade in the future. Go ahead and delete that because there is no fixing a tangled combination of two games. Depending on what exactly you did there, some additional cleanup may be required to get a proper game copy working. Honestly I am surprised that what you did worked at all, as we attempt to prevent that from happening. The specific issue you are having is likely due to the fact that your "game" still identifies itself as IA, even though you have slapped some Renegade files on top. It is possible that this shared identity has also affected your normal IA install in some way as well, but maybe not. In the end, you may have to blow it all away and install fresh copies to get it all working.

@ CCHyper Hey is this project still ongoing? I was reminded of it because Sole Survivor came up in a C&C Facebook group today. It would be cool if there was an update to offer to them, I think you might get some followers out of it. Let us know!

Ahh that explains why I lost the files, I made sure to copy the game under program files however for some reason whenever I went to copy my AppData folder nothing was in fact copied so I lost everything that was in there.
That would be exiting as there are some elements of 1.2 that I prefer over the current versions. Also do you guys plan on rereleasing other old versions of APB?
I do plan on getting a few of the other milestone builds running on the latest 4.x engine and then putting them on the launcher. The final Alpha version "0.9935" will likely be next. It mostly works but will need to be tested. Same case with APB Gamma, the one before Delta. It was originally developed on the early 4.x engine, so it has taken the updates very easily. Beyond that, I want to try to get a combination build working, containing everything prior to Alpha 0.993. The reason for not releasing them individually is because they are nearly identical in many ways and contain so few maps (10 total maps between them all) that it would be cumbersome to do and likely boring for anyone to play. With 10 maps, at least it would make a decent throwback game night.

Oh hey! I was away this weekend and did not check the forum until now.
If you had the map previously in the last 2-3 years then it was almost certainly obtained through the TT downloader aka TTFS. Those files can be found in C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\W3D Hub\games\apb-121\ttfs. If you have these files on a previous computer or something then just copy the whole folder. The map will not be in a .mix format there but rather in an extracted format. Copying the whole folder will be the only way to get the whole thing.
I should have this somewhere, but I will also check with moonsense, as he was developing/maintaining this map for APB 1.2 until the server was taken offline. On that note, I'd like to get that back up some day. Its on my list....eventually. I also need to test 1.2 against the latest 4.x engine version and then release a minor patch to the game if no issues arise. I also seem to recall that there was a broken texture that needs fixing as well.

You can simply run mixcheck.exe in your game folder to verify the integrity of the data files.

IA can only be joined from the IA client. Are you trying to use the IA client or a Renegade client?
