Renegade X (formerly known as Renegade 2007) is a mod dedicated to recreating C&C Renegade in the new generation engine, the Unreal Engine 3. We all believe the Command and Conquer series is a very special one, and its fans have been following its games for over a decade now. C&C has been one of the most successful videogame series in the RTS Genre. Our modding team believes that C&C Renegade is truly a hidden gem in the FPS genre.

     User Posted Image Why Renegade? User Posted Image  

C&C Renegade's specialty was its multiplayer mode, because it was not mindless killing like most games. A player was thrown into a battle as soon as he joined a server, in which teamplay was the only way to win. The game revolves around a war between the Global Defense Initiative, and the Brotherhood of Nod. Each faction would have their own base of operations consisting of buildings. A team had to work together to destroy the enemy base, while keeping theirs intact. By simply switching engines, our team will have fixed many of C&C Renegade's faults. The original game had many problems such as bad netcoding, poor graphics, glitches, etc. Our main goal is to bring this great gameplay to the masses, all the graphical enhancements is merely just icing on the cake.

  • Obelisk/Advanced Guard Tower (Base defenses) Without these, your team has no automatic defense.
  • Hand of Nod/ Barracks (Purchase higher class infantry) Without this, your team cannot purchase higher-classed infantry.
  • AirStrip/Weapons Factory (purchase vehicles) Without it, your team cannot purchase any vehicles.
  • Power plant (Generates power for your base) Without it your defenses will go offline, income will be cut in half, and all units will be double their original price.
  • Refinery (Sends an AI controlled harvester to collect resource) Without this, you will not receive any free credits

There are 2 ways to destroy an enemy building- you can either destroy them by infiltrating the structure and planting C4 explosives, or you can bombard it with vehicles and weapons from the outside. You also have 14 classes of Infantry per team to choose from, as well as 15 vehicles in total.

We also plan on adding plenty of new features that the original Renegade didn't ship with, such as:

  • New Gameplay modes.
  • Built in voice communication
  • Server side variables to control how the game is played on your server.
  • A complete set of added weapons, such as melee weapons (ex. knife), different types of grenades, new characters, new vehicles, etc.

We plan on remaking the original standard maps in the new-generation format. The team will be taking advantage of the engine by using much more polygons and bigger resolutions of textures. Although the maps will keep their original appearance and feel introduced in Renegade, they will graphically be much better than the initial versions. Of course, that being said, our project is not only limited to remaking the original maps. We will be making maps of our own design, which will all be littered with strategic and vantage points.

All ingame models will have a fresh new look with todays standards of 3d design, such as normal mapping, bump mapping, and will all be dynamically lit up during gameplay.

Renegade X --> Bringing C&C Renegade to the Unreal Engine 3

Hey guys. It's been a long time since you've heard from us, and some people have been wondering what has been happening in the mod. It's true, we haven't had a major update for almost two months. We thank those who have been patient, because the September update is finally here, and we've got some goodies to show you!

Website is Live!

In case you haven't noticed yet, but Renegade X has gotten a new website. Check out things like updates, trailers, media, and information. We plan on adding a lot more to the website as time progresses, such as more information on the mod, unit profiles, wallpapers, and possibly a tutorial section for those who want to help out with the project.

Check it out at www.renegade-x.com !

September Podcast

The team's finally gotten its third podcast live. In this podcast, which features Fobby, Havoc89, Killa and JeepRubi, we discuss some important issues at hand, such as the status of the mod, and some cool new features you will only find in Renegade X.

It's very informative and funny, and it's only a little over 13 minutes long. So what are waiting for? Hear about the Renegade revolution down the street by downloading the podcast here:

Video Presentation!

We've composed our first-ever video demonstration. Our older videos have shown awesome ingame and CG stuff, but in this video, edited by Havoc89, we take a look at a couple Renegade X features:

-Stealth Effect: You asked for it, and you got it: an awesome stealth effect for Renegade X. It's still a work-in-progress, but the video should give you a good idea of how it will look like once its ingame. In this video, Havoc89 goes around a test map with his stealth tank and fights other ones.

-Damage/Dirt Demonstration (DDD): We wanted to show you all a Renegade X feature you will not find anywhere else. Basically, the more distance you travel in a vehicle, the dirtier your tank will look. The dirt layer works with both dirt and snow, depending on the map you are playing in. By the same token, the more damage your vehicle takes, the more ravaged it will look as a result of that damage. If your vehicle is heavily damaged, you will see some scratches, dents, and burn marks scattered around the vehicle. Havoc89 goes over the feature and gives you a visual in the Video Presentation.

(The video is a tad choppy, because Adobe Premiere doesn't feel like working properly)

Two New Songs

Renegade X, for the past two months, has remade many songs from the original C&C Renegade and Tiberian Dawn games. We've gotten two more songs done: 'Move It' and 'Blinded'. Move It is a remake of the Renegade classic, while Blinded is an original, with some inspiration taken from Avenged Sevenfold's "I Won't See You Tonight" song.

You could find all of our songs, including the latest two, here:

Moddb.com

GDI M1A1 Medium Tank

The original "Medium Tank" was made after the M1A1 Abrams Tank, so we have decided to take much inspiration from that vehicle into the new Med. The Medium tank is GDI's main battle tank, which is good against pretty much any ground threat you put it against. It's heavily armoured, maneuverable, and affordable.

GDI M1A1 Medium Tank


Under

You saw Under in our previous video test, and now it is finished. We've added trees, snow fall, bunkers, and some other things. Check it out!

Under

Nod Flamethrower

The Flamethrower is back with a new, realistic kickass design! It comes with Nod's free Flamethrower unit, and the flame/fire will be more awesome than ever on the Unreal Engine 3. I can't wait to show you this baby ingame!

Nod Flamethrower


Stealth Black Hand

The Stealth Black Hand (SBH) is a stealth trooper that wields an automatic laser rifle. This has got to be my favourite looking character so far: it's been based off of the original concept art, made by our buddy TAS from Westwood, and revolutionized. Check it out!

Nod Stealth Black Hand


Nod Mobile Artillery

The Nod Mobile Artillery is a personal favourite vehicle of mine. Not only is it very affordable, but it is also gives a tremendous amount of firepower. It's been brought back for Renegade X, looking better than ever.

Nod Artillery


That's all we have for now guys. Be on the look-out for more updates!

ohhh wow i dont have unreal tournament and i really like this mod could you try asking the producers of this game to make this mod a standalone? ;) If not i will buy unreal tournament ONLY to use this mod so make sure you dont die on me or it will be a waste getting it :P

No we're not making this a standalone. We are using EA intellectual property on an Epic Games engine; if we wanted to make it a standalone we would have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to license the Unreal Engine 3, and then get sued by EA for using the C&C property, and then close down the mod.

It's much better for you to just buy UT3 now for 25 dollars, or just wait till the mod is released, where the game will be much cheaper.

Good done!
Will you do something new in the game? For example, new game modes, I can propose the mode: commander, which can build structures and buy tecnniques like in RTS C&C. The intention is to destroy enemy commander (or all structures).
What about third side? For example, Russia? =)

No third side, as for new game modes, that's a yes after we're done with C&C mode.
