Install C&C Renegade
1. Put your Renegade install disc in your cd-rom drive and install Renegade.
Note: if you run Windows Vista or Windows 7, you may need to install in admin mode. To do so, right-click the setup.exe and click "run as administrator".
2. Patches & Updates
(To play C&C Renegade online, you should have an up-to-date version. Therefore follow these
steps after a clean installation.)
2.1. Install the Renegade 1.037 patch. You can download it from
ftp://ftp.westwood.com/pub/renegade/updates/ You should skip this if you have The First Decade
as it already includes this patch.
2.2. Download this corepatch pack: http://www.thekoss2.org/files/cp2complete.zip
unzip it and put all three files (PATCHALL.RTP, PATCHER.EXE and PATCHW32.DLL) into your
"/Renegade" folder (not /Data). Overwrite the PATCHW32.DLL if already existing.
Now execute the PATCHER.EXE
Note: if you run Windows Vista or Windows 7, you may need to install in admin mode. To do so,
right-click the setup.exe and click "run as administrator".
2.3. Download and install scripts 3, latest stable version which you can download here: http://4camp.net/scripts344.exe
We recommend you to uncheck 'bloom' in the setup. If you have a rather old PC, also uncheck 'shaders'.
2.4 Right click on your /renegade desktop icon. Under properties select the shortcut tab, then replace the target with C\:Westwood\Renegade\game2.exe. Do the same in the start menu. Select Westwood, right click on Renegade, select Properties . shortcuts. replace teh target with C\:Westwood\renegade\Game2.exe
4. Go and play Renegade
This worked for me but you have to follow the directions exactly as written
