Thread: General RGC Settings Guide

The purpose of this guide is to sharpen your knowledge about the basic functions available to personalize your RGC and enhance the quality of your very own experience with RGC.
I will try my best to create a complete and easy to understand coverage about all available settings.

1) Settings
This is where all of the Settings are located at:

a. Chat

1) If you check this checkbox, you will automatically join ALL the rooms (channels) you have access to (= Safelisted/Vouched) when you log into RGC

2) If you uncheck the chatbox, you can create a custom list of channels you want to join when you log into RGC.

Highlight names: With this textbox you can define ADDITIONAL names or phrases different from your normal Display Name to be your highlight names.
Example: Normally, you only get highlighted if someone writes your Display Name into the Chat (in my case пїЅAraziellпїЅ). But if I add the phrase пїЅAraпїЅ to the Highlight Names Box, I will get highlighted if someone writes пїЅAraziellпїЅ OR пїЅAraпїЅ.

If you need specific help you can always contact the RGC Support Staff through the RGC Support forum (http://www.mymgn.com/board/forumdisp. Support-Center) or just type пїЅ/J SupportпїЅ in the Client to join the RGC Support Channel.

5) Clans
i. If you have no Clan, this is the place where you can create your very own one.
Just click on the button пїЅCreate My Own ClanпїЅ to be referred to the more detailed creation of your Clan:

Name: The Name of your Clan, e. g. Meet your Makers

8) Rooms
The “Rooms” Window:

This is a huge (but by far not complete!) list of the most important channels on RGC. If you double click one of these names on this list AND if you are vouched (= Safelisted) in the respective channel, a new window opens and you join your new desired room.

9) Warcraft III
In order to start Wacraft III with RGC you have to click this button. Starting Warcraft III this way is INEVITABLE. If you start Warcraft III by just going to your folder and double-click the Frozen Throne.exe you wonпїЅt be able to play on RGC.

If you have not set the path of your Warcraft III Frozen Throne.exe yet (described in 1.e) a window will open where you can do so.

10) Conclusion
My original plan was to describe the basic functions of RGC as easy as possible: I hope I was successful!

I have nothing more to say but happy gaming on RGC! =)

RGC offers some cool things like Host Bots, a reconnection tool and has nearly no leavers. An important part is the RGC Ranking System for Dota Allstars, Dota LoD and Warlock!

Suffix: e.g. |DotA (=> : Araziell|DotA)

Full example: MYM^Araziell|DotA

ii. If you have a Clan:
This is the place where you can manage your clan (if you are the clan leader) and where you can see all the details about your Clan: Your Clan Name, Tag, Description and all of your Members. Additionally thereпїЅs the button to leave your Clan.

6) Friends
The “Friends” Window:

ThatпїЅs the window where you can inspect your friendsпїЅ activities: Whether they are Online, Away from Keyboard or Offline.
Additionally to this window there are several commands available to manage or inspect your friends. You can list all of them by typing пїЅ/f helpпїЅ in the chat in any RGC Channel.

7) Servers
The “Servers” Window:

This window shows you all the hosted Games and some details (not running games!) you have access to at the moment. It is basically an overview about all hosted games in all of the channels you chose to join.

8) Rooms
The “Rooms” Window:

This is a huge (but by far not complete!) list of the most important channels on RGC. If you double click one of these names on this list AND if you are vouched (= Safelisted) in the respective channel, a new window opens and you join your new desired room.

9) Warcraft III
In order to start Wacraft III with RGC you have to click this button. Starting Warcraft III this way is INEVITABLE. If you start Warcraft III by just going to your folder and double-click the Frozen Throne.exe you wonпїЅt be able to play on RGC.

If you have not set the path of your Warcraft III Frozen Throne.exe yet (described in 1.e) a window will open where you can do so.

10) Conclusion
My original plan was to describe the basic functions of RGC as easy as possible: I hope I was successful!

I have nothing more to say but happy gaming on RGC! =)

The purpose of this guide is to sharpen your knowledge about the basic functions available to personalize your RGC and enhance the quality of your very own experience with RGC.
I will try my best to create a complete and easy to understand coverage about all available settings.

Table of Content

1. Settings

1) Settings
This is where all of the Settings are located at:

a. Chat
Lets start with the first tab of “Settings”:

1) If you check this checkbox, you will automatically join ALL the rooms (channels) you have access to (= Safelisted/Vouched) when you log into RGC

2) If you uncheck the chatbox, you can create a custom list of channels you want to join when you log into RGC.

3) Senseless пїЅ ThereпїЅs no need to take a look at this.

4) SAVE пїЅ It is VERY important that you press the SAVE button EVERYTIME you make ANY CHANGES.

b. Friends
The Settings tab “Friends”:

Depending on which of the checkboxes you check, you will get notifications when one of your friends comes online, goes offline or afk, or joins a game.

c. Sounds
The Settings tab “Sounds”:

1) By checking or unchecking these checkboxes you can control whether RGC should notify you with Sound Messages when:

2) With these bars you can control who is allowed to highlight you when you are either ingame, afk or online. There are 3 parameters to choose from: Everyone, Friends and Noone.

Highlight names: With this textbox you can define ADDITIONAL names or phrases different from your normal Display Name to be your highlight names.
Example: Normally, you only get highlighted if someone writes your Display Name into the Chat (in my case пїЅAraziellпїЅ). But if I add the phrase пїЅAraпїЅ to the Highlight Names Box, I will get highlighted if someone writes пїЅAraziellпїЅ OR пїЅAraпїЅ.

d. Other
The Settings tab “Other”:

2) There are “Language” and “Skin”:

3) If you enable this checkbox, RGC will create a logfile (log.txt in your RGC folder) if your RGC crashes. This logfile contains information about your RGC and why it crashed. It can be sent to Sir-Rogers (roger@rankedgaming.com) in order for him to look at it and fix the bug.

Default Mode: Here you can choose the default mode when you sign for a game

Warcraft III The Frozen Throne (Executable): Here you have to enter the path of your Wacraft IIIпїЅs Frozen Throne.exe

Launch Options: This is a column for Warcraft III starting commands, for example пїЅwindow. If your write пїЅ-windowпїЅ into this column your Warcraft III will start in the Window Mode.

Further Commands:
-opengl (Enables OpenGL)
-d3d (Enables Direct-3D Support)
-swtnl (SoftwareTransform & Lightin Video will be used)
-classic (Starts the game in the пїЅReign of ChaosпїЅmode

2) Profile
The “Profile” Window:

Display Name: This is the name shown to others in the chat or in the game. You are able to change ONLY the capital letters here. For Example: пїЅaraziellпїЅ instead of пїЅAraziellпїЅ.

First Name: Your First Name, e. g. Barney

Last Name: Your Last Name, e. g. Stinson

3) Account
The “Account” Window:

1) Name
Here you can change your Name, e.g. пїЅAraziellпїЅ into пїЅBarneyпїЅ. However, you need 10 RGD to do so. if you click on the button пїЅBuy renameпїЅ you will be automatically redirected to the RGC Shop Webpage where you will be able to buy Ranked Gaming Dollars (=RGD) with PayPal.
10 RGD = ca. 1 пїЅ

RGC Installation (Tutorial)

Step 1: Download RGC to your computer.
Step 2: Now unzip the RGC file (I would place it into the Warcraft 3 folder).
Now right click the RGC.exe and run it “as an admin” (important).

Step 3: After clicking connect, login into RGC with your account or simply register a new RGC account.

Step 4: Welcome to RGC! bling You can browse the channels now, meet friends and start playing. In the lower right corner, you can choose the Dota map & game mode that you want to play, then click “Sign” to set yourself onto the waiting list. yeah Have fun playing. 8)

Ranked Gaming Client Dota Leaderboards & Screenshots:

One of the best features of RGC are the Leaderboards for Dota. Competition is important for us and in the Leaderboards we can always see how good we are (or how bad 8D ).
