just wondering, can anyone see the video thumbnails in the thread? they don't show up for me so kind of kind of wondering if I did them wrong.

Nice work with the videos so far, by the way.

Ok, so I've done some more testing with Zoom Zoom vs Rough N Tumble

It's definitely a havok. I'll re-record it sometime later today. Apologies to those involved.

also joelu, if you send me the updated version then i can probably do some bonus matches with it to see how it would have done

And great job with the video quality Geice. Really, my only criticism is not speeding up moments with dead air, case in point, S_M vs Sage. Oh, and thanks for using that song in my match. Really, I appreciate it.

Thanks, and sorry I sent you the wrong one.

The production involved is really good! Two things I noticed were that the first match tricked me into turning my speakers up but the in-game sound was really loud compared to the music, and sometimes the bot splashes passed by a bit too quickly.

Zoom Zoom Flip-kun vs Rough N' Tumble rematch is up:

Hope you find a way to fix those lag (framerate?) issues.

That's what I expected when I made my predictions. 090901's bot still looks fairly strong though, rooting for him in the next round.

Not sure if Round 2 or Loser's Round 1 comes next, so here are predictions for both:
VRI < RON
Zealot > RNT
HAD > LS
Complexer < BS

Darts > RW
AN < ZZFK
DTOM < CRHB
Rev > SB3

Running 7/8

I'm not really sure what's causing it. It's not the recording software though, because my RA2 has the occasional stutter even when I'm not recording.

It might have something to do with RA2 having V-Sync when you play in fullscreen but I'm sure if that actually matters.

edit: just launched a few other games, they all have the same lag/stutter so it's something on my end and RA2's

...****. I've realized something verrrrry bad for me.

The Darts in the tournament splash image has only 1 razor on the end of each extender. Meaning the robot I sent was Darts.02 1.0. The robot I was supposed to send was Darts.02 1.1, as I realized the robot initially had glaring weaknesses that needed to be addressed (the extender could easily be knocked off as it clipped through the plow, causing Darts to lose all means of attack.)

(Image removed from quote.)

Doesn't look like that big of a difference, but Darts preformed far better when its weapon was't broken off almost instantly.
When I got around to sending the robot, I forgot that I saved the crap version of Darts as well as the one I wanted to enter. As I put a version number on all of my .bot files, I looked for "DARTS.02 1.0" and sent that.

So due to my own incompetence, A weak and easy to beat version of Darts.02 is in the tournament as opposed to one that isn't as bad.
I'm sorry for posting this, I shouldn't really be whining if it was my own stupid mistake. I just wanna put it out there that the Darts that was gonna be in the tournament isn't as sh** as the one that is in the tournament.

Uhh hate to break it to you but Darts 1.0 is actually better since with how 1.1's weapons are setup only 1 razor's gonna hit the opponent.

Round 1 of the losers bracket is up

My bad on the FPS counter on the top right, I'm recording in windowed mode to see if it helps reduce the lag. I've removed it for all future matches. A few of the R2 winners bracket matches may have the FPS counter in the corner though.
