Problem:
After joining a server through the Renegade-X Server Client, the main menu is shown from the wrong angle, you have extremely low FPS, and the menu does not respond.
Image

Cause1: The host has patched their server with the Server Client Quick Patch, and you have not yet installed the Server Client Quick Patch on your game.
Solution1: Download the Server Client Quick Patch HERE and rejoin the server.

Cause2: You have patched your game with the Server Client Quick Patch, and the server has not yet updated.
Solution2: Join another server which has installed the Server Client Quick Patch.[/b]


This didn't work at all.

I'm running windows 7 RTM, on a AMD Phenom II x3 720BE@3.4Ghz, 4 gigs of OCZ Gold DDR2 RAM, AMD 4850x2 2GB+4850 1GB triplefire and a Gigabyte mobo system.

Yesterday I didn't have any problems playing the game unless I installed the patch. Now I can't connect to any server, not through the frontend or ingame directly. With or without the patch.
I also noticed that when connecting through the frontend, whenever the game logged in, is when I started having menu trouble, exactly the same as shown in the above screenshot. This does not occur when I log in when I started the client manually, however, it doesn't connect to a server either way. I've also tried compatibility mode to no avail.
Also tried reinstalling both UT3 and RenX, which worked the first time I had problems yesterday, but it doesn't seem to help at all.

I had this happen to me too.

Here's the solution. Edit: (A possible solution)


Make sure you download the patch and drop it in the Script folder like it says in the readme.

Then navigate to ...\Documents\My Games\Unreal Tournament 3\UTGame\Cache.

There is going to be a couple of files in there. You can just delete all of it, or take a look in the .ini and locate all the lines with "RenX_SC" in it and delete them.


This fixed it for me. It seems that with all the servers not having patched yet, you'll end up downloading a wrong version and the game doesn't know which one to use. By clearing the cache you'll make sure that the game uses the patched one.

Worked for me and it's worth a try.

Edit: It worked on the Exodus server, I can always join that one now. Others still don't always work.
Edit2: When I join the borgamers server, I download the old 12k RenX_SC file, but even with that file, Exodus still works. So I'm not sure what's up with that, but I'm positive that clearing the cache the first time fixed it for the Exodus server. Good luck.

Interesting method. I've heard people clearing their caches but surely after you join a server, files are written there anyway. I think the thing people should take into consideration is joining the Official servers that have the latest patches applied. I feel alot of these connection problems are to do with the fact that the client's files and server files are not exact.

Odd, I tried and it seemed to work, downloaded the exoduc RenX_SC when I tried to connect, it just hanged there for a few seconds like it usually did, and then it got back to it's old behavior again, messed up menu. I'll try clearing the cache and downloading the file once again. thanks for the effort though.

Edit:
Nah, didn't work. now it just sits in the main menu and I gotta login.. Which it should autmoaticly.. but when I loging I get the same menu issue again.

It worked for me, for about 5 seconds, then it locked up and I ended up at the desktop. I actually seen a character move.

When I clicked on Exodus server it goes to the selection screen and sits there for about 2 minutes with cpu pegged at 100% and my 2GB ram usage up to 85%, then cpu usage drops and the screen changed and I enter .

Oddly enough though, it does seem to work for me when I get in the exodus server, only when I directly connect through it ingame though.

Strange, i tried to connect with patched and old RenX_SC file, and nothing worked. But look at this string in log:
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div>
Error: Package 'RenX_SC' version mismatch[/b]

What version of RenX_SC is installed at #1 official server?

Same here. I was quite persistant in trying to fix it but had to give up in the end. Uninstalled v0.35, waiting for the new build.
