Nasty bad exploit that RenGuard overlooks. It's very easy to do, and might become a problem later. Has the potential to crash servers, make the game unfair, blah, blah, blah... (I will be truthful and tell you I have done it before, but I swear it was found on accident and I will not use it again. Seriously.)
[Hmm, probably not the right subforum, if necessary, please move this to the correct subforum. Thanks.]
Who do I report it to? I already told Crimson, but I think she's busy right now. If someone can put me in contact with the actual... bug...fixing department of RenGuard, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
PS: My real Renegade name is b3rku7.

I actually told her on RenGuard IRC about a month ago. No word from her yet. I may need to inform Black Hand's premier bug-killer directly. Who might he/she be? Not that I don't trust Crim, but that she seems really busy lately.

If you feel such a desire to make sure it's known to BHS, you can contact me (inetkngeek) on irc.n00bstories.com in #bhs_support. You can also send a PM to me here.

Uh, ok? [I do not fully understand the meaning of "probs," but...]
Hmm. I hope they do. I've watched an entire server completely disappear off WOL's server listing because someone else knew about it and used it. The bad thing is is that this is a command within Renegade itself. I am not sure that RG has any jurisdiction over in-game commands. Oh well. I'll report anyone I catch using it, if it helps. (The signs are more obvious than your history teacher's comb-over.)
I still want to know where is the preferred place to post such things. A board would get me banned, and the people at IRC are too busy to handle this sort of thing.
If anyone can put me in touch with the person who actually fixes this crap, I'd appreciate it. So would server owners. This bug forces you to close and restart severs to negate the effects.

probs = probalary
If crimson knows about the bug than thats fine. At this moment you will have to wait and watch. It wont get fixed any quicker
Let all your wishes be granted except one, so you will still have something to strieve for.

It's not a RenGuard bug. It has absolutely nothing to do with RenGuard or cheating. It's simply a way that (maybe) causes a server to crash. I say maybe because it's not confirmed and since he told me in-game, I don't have any logs of what he's talking about.
I'm the bawss.

What? You don't have your Renegade client set to log game chat?!

A new problem I found with this bug or whatever, is that it gives you the upper-hand in vehicle rushes. You move so fast, the AGT has a hard time keeping up. I occasionally mess around with this ...whatever you call it, on a small test server. I drove a NOD buggy to the AGT taking only minim-
I'm gonna stop now. It's getting really annoying, isn't it? 
If I ever find anything of even the faintest bit of interest, I'll leave it for BHS to find it. That is their job.
Sorry to bug you guys. 
PS: (No sarcasm. I just grew up, is all.)
PPS: I'll stop making test servers. Waste of text on the WOL server list.
PPPS: W00t. 100 posts. Not that it means anything, still a n00b.

I..er..I..might have used this once. However, if you don't adjust the torque turn ratio when increasing the max torque, it screws you up royally when renegade resets your out of control vehicle. However, it is off n00bstories now, as I was planning to tell when I found it, but tried the next day to see it was gone.

I repeat: The game host sets the game speed. In some Maps with an objects.ddb (like Mars, SkateparkV2 etc) the Speed is altered due to mapsided settings.
This is the reason why those Speedhacks don't work in Multiplayer. You speed up (it doesn't matter if you are walking or in a vehicle) and after 1 second you are being teleported back to your normal position.
The others will see you lagging around. Thats it.

as dead said it appears to work but in fact doesnt. your find the edit vehicle command avaliable to use on servers that run the one-player mod. In one-player mode you have access to this command so although you can use it, the effects you see are solely on your screen and not anyone elses!
