Working on a legal Renegade installer using demo + fds + 1.037 patcher files

[Iran]

Hey I've been working on creating an installer for the game which uses the demo game files, the FDS files and the 1.037 patch program files. It's working but it's missing:

- some non-essential sounds (I've replaced them silent sounds to prevent game from crashing)
- the single player maps so you can't play coop.
- no serial (but not an issue as no server contains serial check)
- some textures on a few models
- some textures on all the maps except C&C_Under.

Scripts 4.0 and RenList work fine. Playing on rencorner for a bit.

I need some help with the missing textures and I need to do some testing and then I can release it. The final installer size will be about 120 MB I think.

Send me PM so I can link what I have (it's a 7zip archive so you don't have to run an installer). I want to add the installer to CnCNet's web listing tool for Renegade servers (kinda like RenList but then online): https://cncnet.org/renegade-servers (I'll also add a link to the ultimate edition if people want to buy the game for coop)

Awesome idea to get the servers populated with new players. Thanks for trying this out Iran!

The full game is often available on ebay for like $5, perhaps we could offer up the full game as a prize or something, since it is so cheap.

Maybe make the monthly giveaway a 3- pack of Renegade? For copies to give to your friends to get them into the game.

We tried this once in TK2, it didn't work. People who want to play ren already do.

I'm gonna put it on the cncnet.org web site. It's pretty much on top for any C&C related google search. has good SEO
