Hello everyone! My name's Mike, and after a couple months of fawning over Youtube videos of people playing one of my favorite childhood games (CnC Renegade), I've finally set aside some time to set myself up to be able to play online. (Which I thought was going to be waaay more complicated then it ended up being, lol.)

Anyways!

I was hoping someone would be able to help me out with a slight dilemma I'm having. I can't seem to figure out how to patch my game, lol. I have the correct patch, however when I try to run it, it tells me to reinstall the game from the CDs. That's where the trouble comes in, I have a copy from Origin. And I'm assuming it installs the game into a different directory than the patch is expecting. And unfortunately the CDs I used to have from back in the day have long disappeared. No idea where they are, lol. I'm sure if push comes to shove I could find some on Amazon or something.

I did do a quick google search and search of these forums hoping to find a solution, however I haven't been that lucky. So any help would be very much appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Hi Mike,

What patch are you trying to install?
AFAIK the Origin version is pre-patched.

Ahhh, well crap. You're right. Origins Renegade is the correct version. I believe 1.037 or something, I guess my real problem is that when I join a lobby with players already in the game I get the "Renegade has stopped working" error. Looking for a fix now, any help appreciated. :)

I had just assumed that version was a problem, lol. It was a little late xD

You should provide more specific information, anything you think may be relevant.
