| Core Patch 2 Release Candidate 1 is available for download [message #188575] |

For client players, download and run this:
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/download.exe
It will download Core Patch 2 Release Candidate 1.
When the final version of Core Patch 2 is released, we will release it through RenGuard like Core Patch 1.
Clients will get scripts.dll 2.3.1.
Server owners can choose from sripts.dll 2.3.1 or SSAOW 1.4.1 (with the bhs.dll from scripts.dll 2.3.1 including all the 2.3.1 fixes)
For linux servers with Core Patch 1 already installed (i.e. brenbot, proper LFDS binary etc), download and run this
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/sscp2.run (its a shell script with a TGZ file on the end)
For linux server without Core Patch 1, download and run this
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/sscp2all.run
For windows servers with Core Patch 1 already installed, download and run this
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/sscp2w.exe
For windows servers without Core Patch 1, download and run this
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/sscp2allw.exe
The linux installer uses makeself to make the installer and the windows installer uses Nullsoft Installer (since its my first time with Nullsoft, hopefully I got everything right)
It would be good to see some servers run Core Patch 2 (especially the new maps)
This is Release Candidate 1 of Core Patch 2.
The following issues are currently known:
The windows installer does not make sure the location you type in to install CP2 into has a valid install of CP1 or of the windows FDS (I plan to fix this for RC2). Also, it doesnt add the new maps to the rotation (I also plan to fix this so that the option is there in RC2). And, the readme file has to be updated (at minumum, mac needs to be added to the credits for his help with CP2)
Please report any issues with Core Patch 2 Release Candidate 1 on these forums so everything can be kept in the one place. If it is something that needs to be kept private (e.g. an exploit), private message me with the information.
Questions are best asked by contacting me through MSN, AIM, ICQ or Yahoo.

Note that you need to have RenGuard installed if you are installing the client CP2 patch (you dont need Core Patch 1, the installer will install the needed bits for that too if you dont have it installed)
Also, the download.exe must be run in the renegade folder (the one with game.exe and game2.exe in it)

If anyone gets an error with CP2 saying "old file does not exist", post here with the filename and the size in bytes of the file.
Also, if anyone gets a RenGuard error saying that <some file> is a bad file, please post here again with the filename and file size.

Work-around for the FieldTS version error:
- Download the stand-alone version of CP1 from http://download.renguard.com/standalone_cp1.zip
- Install it into a temporary folder (it will give you a 'file not found' error, but it will give you FieldTS first)
- Copy C&C_FieldTS.mix from the data subfolder of your temporary folder to your Renegade data folder
- Install CP2 RC1 as usual
- Delete the temporary folder
That's how I got CP2 RC1 to install...

The copy of FieldTS that CP2 is looking for should be the exact same one as CP1 installed.
If it is not, I need to know.
And I need the FieldTS mix file that CP2 does not like.

Anyone having problems with "old file not found" type errors should post the following:
Which file it is.
What size the file in their renegade folder is in bytes
Plus whether the CP2 installer downloaded patchall.zip or cp2.zip.
Do make sure you run download.exe from the renegade folder (the one with game.exe, game2.exe and scripts.dll in it).
When we release final version of CP2 through RenGuard, we will implememnt check to make sure that files in renegade folder are what CP2 is looking for.
Oh and guys, this is a Release Candidate. If you dont want software that may contain bugs, do not download and install this. Wait for the final release of CP2.

Installed CP2 and loaded up "Last Stand" to try it out. The game just closed on me. Like you would if you click F8 and type" EX". Anyone else have this problem? I presume I'm missing a script or something.
No error, just closed.

It works great for me! 
Thanks 
(though, now the font is weird again, as I've gotten used to the CP1 font  I guess you just can't have everything  )

If you actually want it back open up stylemrg.ini and replace 4 lines that are already in it with this:
FONT_INGAME_TXT=Lucida Console, 8, 0
FONT_INGAME_BIG_TXT=Lucida Console, 16, 0
FONT_INGAME_SUBTITLE_TXT=Lucida Console, 14, 0
FONT_INGAME_HEADER_TXT=Lucida Console, 9, 1
And Trunkskgb I'm not having this problem, I do think Last_Stand looks like crap and I'm definatly sure that GDI will win the map 66% of the time. I mean, even the beta version of Pompeii.mix looks and plays better.

rc22fires, exactly what does the console/dos window say?
Recon, do you have Core Patch 1 installed? Did the CP2 installer download patchall.zip or cp2.zip?
Did you run the installer from your renegade folder?
Last_Stand works just fine for me, anyone else having problems with it?
