About BlackIntel

Welcome to BlackIntel, home of the BlackIntel servers, coders and of course clan. Our goal is to provide a nice place to stay and hang around for everyone. We currently offer a variety of games, including C&C Renegade, Battlefield 2142 mod: First Strike, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and Mound and Blade: Warband.

If you like our servers, you might want to consider to join our clan. We're a nice clan and are usually not too serious in life. :) We play for fun mostly, although sometimes a serious clanwar can be really entertaining as well. If you feel the same you should really check out the clan section of your favourite game here!

This site is also a place where server owners can get support on our C&C Renegade software or can show their appreciation. As you can see on the projects page we have a couple of coding projects running regarding Renegade. We hope you like them!

Server fixed

Posted on 24 Feb 2010 by StealthEye
It took us the entire day, but we finally left the datacenter and the server should be working again. Unfortunately, the main board broke, and we spent two hours attempting to get a proper replacement board but failed to find any. We therefore installed a board with two major disadvantages: the SCSI controller does not fit, hence some of our disks can no longer be connected. The other disadvantage is that it only supports two RAM modules, whereas we have 4. (2x 2GB and 2x 1GB). We can therefore only use 4GB currently.

We are sorry for the inconvenience and the infrequent updates, but ironically, we do not have WiFi access in the datacenter, and had to cope with the horrible speed of a mobile phone internet within a building with loads of concrete and metal. Even calling Ghostshaw and Goztow from there required us to leave the server room because there was not enough signal inside there... Sigh.

Ah well, we are done now. Temperatures are stable so we are confident it will no longer give problems. We will still have to determine what to do with the hardware we can no longer use.

Unexpected server downtime

Posted on 22 Feb 2010 by StealthEye
It seems our server suddenly shut down today, but it never restarted. Currently we are in the dark as to what happened; we can not contact the server in any way. We will only be able to get more information at 9 AM GMT. We will keep you updated in this thread on the forums.


Temporary TS3 server has been setup for us available at this address: 188.40.87.145:9987

New nickname for our Renegade server

Posted on 12 Feb 2010 by EvilWhiteDragon
As you might have noticed, our Renegade section isn't really getting much players in the server. In order to (hopefully) improve this situation we asked Jelly for a higher nickname than our current A000000A. Jelly granted us the use of his a000000 nick.
This could help our server getting more players, but it will still need the support of our regular renegade players, you!

Oh, btw, thanks Jelly!

Server move finished

As was posted yesterday on the forums already, the server move was finished yesterday at around 13:45. We encountered no real problems so it could be done quickly. We're sorry for the inconvenience the downtime may have caused.
