i actually have two questions here. My first one is what servers have crates in them. Another one if anyone can answer it is how can I get crates to run on my server. I run NightRegulator so I don't know if it can work on that bot.(I think thats what its called, not sure)
Thanks in advance if anyone can answer these for me.

I dont see much server running this bot.
I would say about 5 server total run it.
Many use BR or CS. I would advise using CS (cause BR sux)

I have tried BR, BR.Net, NR and CS and my favourite was by far CloudyServ, I really like the features it has and how customizable it is.
I hate joining a server with NR because you are constantly having gay sounds played, its like it was designed by a little kid or something.

Speaking of crates, could someone give me the M, a, and c values for the Renegade GetRandomInt () engine call? (Or if it's not using a linear congruential algorithm, tell me the equivalents plz).

In your opinion, But from what my users tell me "OMFG THIS IS COOL". Perhapa the "standard" crates might suck but the ones i have crated would possibly make you change your mind 
NR sucks period... The commands are pretty basic as is. Hell even my testbot could be better 
How easy is that compared to NR ( i dont think BR can do custom commands unless you got a irc bot to relay certain stupid text)
Lets just see how many users use NR to the users on BR & CS

Oderint, dum metuant.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt

I don't like crates personally - i find that they unbalance the game, but then I like a pure server.
Crates add another option, I believe all of the modifactions/game types are a big factor as to why this game is still running after over 4 years and if people like them (which they obviously do or so many serverswouldn't use them) then whats the problem?

The crates are fine if the contents are within reason. Obviously, no God crate. I don't mind if it has a few credits or a weapon that only has 1 clip of ammo. I don't think it should reward points, or give out vehicles. Crates should not swing the game in favor of a lucky player.
Watching an APC full of "lotto winners" drive by, while the whole team is out attacking the harvester is less than enjoyable.

Crates as we also known as the lottery system sucks. Vlok, the old modder suggested making a smart crate system which based on your teams effort help calculate what crate you should have.
For example: You are GDI and have lost your Power Plant. A smart crate appears and you get it. Then the outcomes would be something to help combat against the Power Plant loss for a short period like:
- Stealth Reveler
- Nod losses all power for a couple of mmoments
Of course there would be a slight chance it doesn't help you.
Let all your wishes be granted except one, so you will still have something to strieve for.

Well, I prefer playing a marathon game on the map Under and it's being going on for 10 hours, that both teams try to control the field to search for a Spy crate rather then spending another 10 hour before one teams is so bored that they give the other team victory.

Right! I normaly play on "pure" servers, or mostly pure servers... (for example theKoss2 ...)
Crates are sometimes heavy unbalanced... a skilled player on Nod side get a railgun from such a crate...he was a SBh.... och (´volcano, without basedefense after 5 min. ...) lets say he got like 20 frags by covering a nuke a few minutes later...
or the stupid godcrate.... well lets say GG
or he spycrate.... on maps with basedefense its like a GG...
pure renegeda is the best mode... because there you need skill and teamplay... not a basicsoldier who kills my mammy with a PIC...
or SBH'S who run around with instakillweapons and onehit 1000cred. soldiers from stealth
these Sbh'S are a serios problem.... ever see a big game on weapon drop servers? if lets say 20 guys are Nod the there are sometimes 12 Sbh's who run around and wait that a tank blow up a mobius/havoc and then dont fight because they fear to lose their superweapon -.-
Marathon games:
I sometimes play on marathonservers...I hope that somewhere far far away in the future someone rekognize to teamplay.... really funny to see in Field 5 Havocs crying that noone create a rush and we all are n00bs...
Thanks.

The worst part about the crates is that the model for them is a huge-ass gray box that just looks absolutely silly out there in the field. I might use a couple of the crates (money and refills are just about all I can accept -- stealth, god, tanks, and points are just fucking retarded in my opinion) but ONLY if the crate was the small yellow box instead of this retarded oversized monstrosity. As if you'd really find ammo or money in a gigantic box bigger than a person.
Therefore, I stick to the old school yellow crates with money and refills.
I'm the bawss.
