Well, it's been a long while, and although many of us (including myself) are probably preparing for the coming of September, where school, work, and the cycle of a busy life start all over again--I have a few things I want to show to everyone here. I am heading to post-secondary, but I intend on still playing and being an active Coop gamer in Renegade.
Immediately below is a compilation of rendered Renegade Concept Art pieces that I've taken the liberty to cut out in Photoshop CS2. I plan to use these later for the making of non-commercial banners, signatures, or just plain artwork to promote Coop in Renegade.
I am posting this purely for display, it is not so others can use it directly from the image, otherwise known as ripping. I claim no copyright to the work, but I won't let anyone rip either just in case they have some devious intentions of their own. If anyone would like to use some of these renders in non-commercial projects of their own, send me an email, and I'll be happy to see about sending the entire file to you personally. ^.^
Finally, below are two banners to promote 'Renegade-Coop'. There can be two meanings for that--one being just the general concept of Coop Gameplay in Renegade, and the other being the name of the new Renegade Coop Community I've created and have up and running, complete with website and forums. I've posted the link in one of the pictures within this post. If you really would like to check it out, then find the link yourself.

Note: These two banners are pretty horrible in terms of style, color scheme, and visual appearance. I'm still learning and won't deny there is a lot to improve on. Just wanted to show what I have done so far though.
As for Modding/Scripting in Renegade, I have also been working on several maps/missions--most of them are pretty much just for me own practicing/learning purposes, but two of them are eventually going to be released as small Mod Packages that you can download and try. It won't be anything special or high-class, but it'll be something that showcases what I've learned in Coop Modding so far, and I hope I'll get to play it with some of you in the clan.
Many thanks to Zorid for putting me through a hands-on tutorial with him while he explained a very in-depth and long process for a scripting trick to use on Coop Maps/Missions.
I'm still here, and this is the update from me so far. If you can find the website and forum links to the new Renegade Coop Community I've created, then I congratulate you and hope to see your face there. I'm still working on making additional updates and changes to the site, but for the most part, it's ready for the public. Thought I'd start with you guys here whom have a passion/interest for Coop. ^^
Cheers for now,
