Review
of Renegade Legion Total Conversion
By: Elited.net
See the original HERE

An all-star team
worked on the Renegade Legion TC: Alpha Echo, Bear, Cocobolo, Copper,
GravediGGa, HeLLKNiGHT, Serellan, Shadow, SST_Piccolo. Each and everyone
were great contributors to the Renegade Legion and it shows throughout.
Storyline
Rather
long so I will just let you go to the UMM
site to read it. Necessary if you want to really understand the
full concept of the mod. But not needed to kick ass in it or wonder
around in astonishment at what has been done to Rogue Spear.
System
Requirements
With all
the additions, I believe these guys pushed the engine to its limits.
Hopefully it isn't straining anyone's system too badly. I had no problems
running Renegade Legion at all.
Installation
Mindvision!
yay someone listened to me! OK if they read my post about trying it
or not, they used something besides the standard 'click team' everyone
uses. Easy install.
Graphics/Maps/Architecture
OMG! The
maps are so spectacular. Most of the time I get shot because I am just
looking around in amazement. You just haven't seen anything as awesome
in Rogue Spear. My favorite map is by GravediGGa, his SpaceStation is
just astounding. You see the earth actually revolving above. While testing
the maps I saw them near completion and thought.... Bravo. I simply
didn't think they could improve on the maps, and yet they did. I have
been disappointed numerous times with map mods for RS/UO due to the
lack of architecture, you can find some new curves in these maps. If
I have to say anything bad it would be that there are a couple little
buggy places in the maps, but you most likely won't find them, and if
you do its not impossible to avoid that area.
New interface - completely redone.
New
logo and its not spinning.
Weapons
Of course
you had to know that nothing but the best would come out of a group
that included Shadow, Cocobolo and Piccolo. You gotta check out that
Navacor C-Drone. Great weapons all space age and sounds to go with them.
New reticules added. Swank.

Kit
Items
New Motion
Sensor and Two new frag models
Models
All new
models by the best around. Cocobolo modeled out some of his best for
Renegade Legion. Plenty of models to choose from: men and women, even
cyborgs. 16 new skins. Coco was able to let his mind roam free and had
a great time doing it. You can see his attention to detail in these
models.
Sound
Serellan
and his wife made new files for the briefings. Sweet, huh. There are
new weapon sounds that fit the weapons, so many new sounds added that
complete the TC. New sounds for the interface buttons also. What haven't
these guys touched?!!
Single
player
Serellan
again had his hands in here. The modes are now renamed to Take Down,
Lone Renegade, Live Fire Exercise, Search and Rescue, TOG Onslaught,
and Stealth Renegade.
Multiplayer
Now this
is a blast. Adversarial and Cooperative are both a good time. Nothing
but good games. Same modes as Urban Ops.
Bugs
Few spots
in the maps that need fixed. A reticule missing. Start up points for
the AI in some maps.. such as, on one assault map we started with our
lower halves below the truck and had to climb up. At times when you
choose certain models sp (campaign or simulator) you don't get that
model.
Pros
You just
gotta see it.... Its all pro.
Cons
Hmmm....
there's no reason why you shouldn't download this TC. A patch was released
with the mod and then repatched. There are a few bugs mentioned above,
but they are little.
