Why is Wiki in bold eye candy type, and you cant dig up a clue about the WOL change with a dozer? I come here on a regular basis and I had no idea that this change was taking place until I visited http://black-cell.net/. Seems to me, with as many people who play WOL that this http://xwis.net/ would be everywhere, including the rengaurd splash screen. Hell, I almost downloaded ad-ware so I could play Renegade. Have you people heard of AADD? Please be aware that there are people in this community that have a short attention span, and only follow shinny objects, and so on. Terrell Owens is a jackass, but I love to see Philly having hell. Well, I hope this helps someone. BTW here is the link to the tool.

I clicked the wiki link, and closed it like a coffin. What is this XWIS you speek of? Never heard of it till this morning. Just seems to me that a link to this tool would be the one with neon lights around it. Also, the splash screen on rengaurd was showing me the top 5 servers with hardly anyone in them. I understand that it's my problem for not reading more and it's only a gmae. I just was thinking, Im not the only one in the dark on this, but I'm going to be ok.

Been walking around with a blindfold on?

The transition is well publicised, your one of the few who has missed it. (Once it goes 100% official, it won't matter anyway, Renegade will connect to XWIS without the tool.)

I am sure it's my fault. Ignorance is no excuse for having only 5 servers to play in. Sorry, but I found only 2 links that were of any interest to me. Looks more like a modders website than a players. And as far as needing a tool to play on WOL, there is no info and nothing pointing me in to it.

'We have no reason to believe the current WOL outage has anything to do with the XWIS transition. There has been no word from any contacts at EA about the cause or timeframe for resolution, but they have been notified about the problem.'

'What do I have to do?
Do nothing! When the change happens, you will AUTOMATICALLY be directed to the XWIS servers'

OK, a link to www.xwis.net would have been nice on that page but all the rest is on it...

you can always directly connect to a server using an IRC script or you can also use a simple command on your start menu.

start menu > run > "C:\Westwood\Renegade\game.exe" +connect **.ip.here.** $+ : $+ PORT +netplayername " $+ nickname $+"

[Replace **.ip.here.** with the actual server i.p]
[Replace PORT with the port number of the server]
[Replace nickname with your choosen name to play under]

I'm sure there is a simpler version out there but mine works for me so ner! Tell Me Rocked Over

No really, please actually click on links. Perhaps you should use the SEARCH box on renegadewiki.com instead of just searching the first page.


w00t?

That's mainly because the actual take over hasn't happened yet. Once XWIS takes over for good, you won't need a connection tool. Some people wouldn't know except for the changed Message of the Day that pops up when you first connect.

Once all the bugs are ironed out, I'm sure it'd be close to how it used to be, or maybe better?

(PS, I currently use the XWIS connection tool to play online, and so far I have had NO problems what so ever joining any servers, and I'm behind a NAT.)
