  1. You'll need to setup wine (http://wiki.winehq.org/MacOSX) and launch Renegade through Wine to play on a Mac. Note that Wine is not officially supported for Renegade. I don't know if anyone has actually tested TT 4.2 on Mac+Wine.
  2. In case anyone was having trouble connecting to IRC over the last 24 hours, there was an outage in one of C&C IRC DNS servers due to the migration of one of our VMs. Although it is doubtful that anyone noticed because of the redundancy in DNS. This has been fixed.
  3. Staff resignations Hawk, whom was providing a server for the community, is leaving for personal reasons. With him, the server will be going too. However, he is letting us continue using his server until the end of August. Server migration We will be performing a server migration this week onto two brand-new Limestone Networks servers. One server will be running Windows Server 2012 R2, while the other server will host two virtual machines - both Linux - for the website, Linux-based game servers, and our Subversion (SVN) repositories for our Development team. Our current server with OVH will be cancelled this month. The new servers will incur an increased server bill each month, but with that, we get awesome support and upgradeable servers.

The leftover amount from above will be used for things the staff here agree to buy (things like cool skins, add-ons for the forums, and a rainy-day fund for the server bills.
  4. That was actually intended to not be able to view it when you're not logged in. Saves us a little bit of bandwidth, honestly.
  5. Update: Tomorrow, around 6-7PM Central US (UTC-6, Chicago Time) we'll be rebooting the host server one again. This time we'll be performing some I/O tests which might take maybe an hour or two. During this time, we'll still have Hawk's server running NewMaps temporarily.
  6. Server maintenance is still ongoing a bit. Setup a test renegade server to see if things appear to be less laggier (beyond network lag). Ticket has been opened with regards to disk I/O performance as well.
  7. This is just an ongoing update as to the lag complaints we've received over the last few months. We apologize for not showing the public this process. We've tried to keep the Administrators here apprised of our progress. We have been working with OVH to isolate network issues that could be causing our players to lag. Right now, the belief is that OVH's points of presences are congested within the US causing some users/players to experience lag during certain times of the day. We have been working with OVH support to bring it to their attention, but have only received a small handful of traceroutes that we have requested. We have received more than what was posted to the aforementioned topic, and one in particular has given OVH proof that there is network congestion - at least within Canada (Toronto area). Quoting some excerpts from our tickets (OVH's replies): and This, combined with the server maintenance we just announced, should at least partially resolve the lag complaints. Time will tell.
  8. ATTENTION: Emergency server maintenance TODAY at 09:30/10:00 UTC-7 (Arizona). Server will be OFFLINE for several hours while we perform a host node REINSTALL to fix performance issues. We believe the server has a misconfiguration on the host node that is causing performance to decrease with the virtual machines that run our network. This reinstall of the host OS will, we hope, correct that issue. We will keep you guys updated as progress happens via Twitter and Facebook (links below). 2015-07-22 @ 11:30 UTC-7: Maintenance is starting later than originally estimated. We hope to begin shortly.2015-07-22 @ 11:42 UTC-7: Maintenance beginning. Server now offline.2015-07-22 @ 12:42 UTC-7: Server boots. We are reconfiguring the environment for the new lighter virtualization system.2015-07-22 @ 14:18 UTC-7: Server is up. Double checking everything is alright.2015-07-22 @ 17:23 UTC-7: Server performance seems better right now. Setup a PERFTEST server to test load.

    This should be fixed now. Someone installed a "beta" Imperial Age package on the test server while it was linked to the main server. They forgot to unlink it before installing.

    I think I know the cause, but I don't know how to fix it while the server is online.
  11. slight bump, since the topic was staged privately since last month.
  12. If you already have 4.1, you just need to run UAC Launcher.exe or game.exe to auto-update to 4.2
  13. The old mappack only includes up to Imperial Age D2. The new one includes D3 now.
  14. Internally on the site, things may have been moved around. However, I don't know specifically what URL the launcher uses to update so I don't know what URL to look at fixing... I hope CireX sees this quickly.
  15. Someone deleted a usergroup on the server by accident. But I have restored said group from a backup.

    Fourm Bug

    Topic markers aren't working correctly for some reason. Trying to find a fix for it. It's a result of yesterdays error when the backup cron job failed and ate up all disk space on the server leaving nothing for the SQL server.
  17. The "+multi" switch basically allows you to run multiple copies of Renegade. This is useful if you also run a copy of the FDS on the same machine and wish to play in it.
  18. If you do this, make sure to reply back on the forums for posterity.
  19. I'm moving your topic to Help & Suggestions (or possibly just Discussions if someone objects) as I don't see how this relates to IRC.
