I played it way back in the days before RA2. The lack of physics pretty much made it an awkward 3D fighter.

Use more spikes and weapons. I liked the knives. You can get 'em by typing over your bots name with "cheatbot" and then pressing enter. That also unlocks a skull, Badass tires, and badass speakers. I think that was all.

I beat the game in an hour or two. It was ridiculously easy.

Those pics are from BEFORE RA2 came out, I am sure the video cards have messed up the quality of the game by now.

Title: Re: RA1
Post by: RFS on January 05, 2010, 11:05:32 PM
RA1 was a pretty terrible game, as I cite my signature.

I wrote an article about the game for the ill-fated GatorAIDS website but I never posted it. Took some recent screencaps of it, here's one of them from the article.
(http://i45.tinypic.com/t858gi.jpg)

And for the sake of being on topic, here's some quotes from the article.
Quote
I bought this game in 2002 for $22, which is about $21.99 more than what I probably should have paid for it.
Quote
You’re able to build the design that you want, assuming that your dream robot is something that can be made from about twenty prefabricated parts and weapons and five different chassis each with about eight specific locations where you can put something.
Quote
There’s a fat black boxing has-been and a half-man half-robot gimmick, but the winner of the Most Idiotic Enemy Ever goes to my main man The Infamous B.A.D.. No, he’s not some smooth rapping dark skinned fellow, he’s a wigger complete with a backwards cap and a peach fuzz mustache that screams out “I’m thirteen years old and I get uncomfortable erections in math class.”
Quote
Overall: Robot Arena was the first true game devoted to the budding genre of robot combat simulators. Because it’s the charter title of the genre it’s impossible for me to say “Robo Cockfighting Battle X is a better game” because there were no previous games to compare it to. However being able to call dibs on a new genre is no excuse to **** everything up and capitalize on being the game with the monopoly in the gaming world. I give Gabriel Interactive huge props for having the balls to explore uncharted and incredibly popular territory with a game this broken, but as you can see with Robot Arena 2 Gabriel Interactive is one of the few developers who learn from their mistakes and went on to effectively set the bar for what robot combat games should be with Robot Arena 2... even if their sequel was the last robot combat game ever made (great timing).

Post by: frezal on January 05, 2010, 11:48:50 PM
The lack of a forklift was so disappointing. All I wanted to make were flippers, and instead, I was stuck making rammers. All of those rammers sucked, by the way. None of those bots could drive particularly fast, and there were no physics, so it was all just sad.
Title: Re: RA1

I remember AW from AceUplink modded RA1 so you could ATTACH the fork lift but it didn't actually do anything. Letdown of the year. :(

I believe so, I think he swapped the model files because the Battering Ram used 2 locations.

It was removed from the game due to the lack of a physics engine.

They left the files, just removed it from the game. So to get it, you have to replace the battering ram graphics with the forklift graphics.

The skin is in the game folders, so you can get it from there. The skin can be used on the medium chassis. When I made an Omnivore, I think I gave him some saws and pneumatic spikes. I most likely chose tank tracks for the drive system because car steering is lame.

Be sure to go the the GTM downloads section and get the latest patch, because all CD's were 1.0.0.3 or older.
 
Also the proper way to install a .iso is to install from your hard drive....THEN burn to CD to patch and/or play

The last one he posted DOES work, but it is WinZip and 7zip and winrar should extract it.
 
Extract to your desktop and then open the folder and double click Setup to install the game. Once it is installed you will probably not need the desktop folder any longer (but save it somewhere for later)
 
Then download the 1.0.0.4 patch (from GTM downloads) and extract it to the Robot Arena folder (tell it to overwrite) and you are ready to go.

yeah but it's not funny on my side when all i wanted was help
 
 
so after downloading the game, what patch do I install?

You install the game by double clicking Setup.........Then you down load the 1.0.0.4 patch and extract it to (probably) C:\Program Files\Robot Arena
 
Extract to your desktop and then open the folder and double click Setup to install the game. Once it is installed you will probably not need the desktop folder any longer (but save it somewhere for later)
 
Then download the 1.0.0.4 patch (from GTM downloads) and extract it to the Robot Arena folder (tell it to overwrite) and you are ready to go.

Anyone got a RA1 CD image / installer / anything?  I'd love to have it. Either that or I'll try to crack / unpack Trymedia's version if my reversing talents are good enough.


Oi, also, RFS, you probably remember me. I was megabyte on AU and your forums. Please forgive me.

Forgive you for what? :P I remember ya. :3

Vaguely but no, not really. I've dealt with so much needless drama from Miniclip/Club Penguin I kind of forgot most of the RA2 nonsense.

I downloaded the RA1 link from Serge's sig, and after winning the first 2 battles and rebuilding my bot for a 5th time, any time I go to battle with it, it blows up before the match starts.

RA1 has no physics engine.

No... the 1.0.0.4 patch only fixes issues with custom textures. His game must be before some of the earliest patches were released.

Can't get the file upload, so you'll have to wait.

Wait.... how would that help? You would need his .exe as well for those to work.

Some RA2 free trial was featured on the KaZaA homepage yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaars ago, I tried it, didn't manage to build a working bot but had some fun playing tabletop games with Forkie anyways, then downloaded Robot Arena 1. Then, after months, I discovered RA2 was still installed and started reading the tutorials, which only got me to a point of: WANT!
So I ordered it on BOL.com (the Dutch Amazon) and from that very moment, hell broke loose..

I do remember though, on RA1, I used a bot with the extra light chassis, using just wheels and one of those saw blades that came down, to make it helluvafast and drive around opponents to kill them with ease.
Title: Re: RA1
Post by: GoldenFox93 on March 06, 2010, 07:03:28 PM
BUMP

I found my copy of the game, and now I've reinstalled it.

However, how do I apply custom textures to the components and chassis?
 
EDIT: And hopefully, once I apply custom textures, maybe I'll make a custom "Tournament Opponent" screen of my robot.

ooh, I'm excited!

I had a bot that used the cheatbot part switchblade, it beat all the AI.

Man... I wish that there wasn't so much of this game built into the EXE. You really can't mod it at all...
Title: Re: RA1
Post by: HurricaneAndrew on March 16, 2010, 02:12:56 AM
I have the RA1 disc. I got it when it came out. But now the thing is being a pain in the ass... First, my drive wont detect it. Then, it starts installing and at 9% it tells me a file is corrupt or some sh**. Now, it keeps bringing up an error message and the installer won't start at all!

Oh, well. As RFS said "RA1 was a pretty terrible game". Therefore, I'm not too worried about it.

Post by: Larrain on March 17, 2010, 05:27:43 PM
Serge had a DL link for RA1 in his sig, not sure if it's still there...

Also, what a pathetic game. I beat it in under an hour with a bot that had that paralyzing antenna on its top.
Title: Re: RA1
Post by: Badnik96 on March 17, 2010, 08:21:41 PM
I know, know the cheats (# and cheatbot) and you can beat the game without really trying. The only bots I had trouble with were pontoon and Red Giant.
