Title: BOTM August 08
Post by: ACAMS on July 18, 2008, 09:16:56 AM: I have been at work for 2 weeks and my laptop crashed again (actually I crashed it again, but it sucks)

Anyway....since we are late getting started lets make this simple.

STOCK MW Rammer.......same rules as last time except all stock this time, so I would suggest making a nice skin a real nice splash for the extra votes.

Pics must be 800 x 600 and MUST be .jpg, or .png .........any .bmp's, or other large files will be deleted.

Voting will start Monday the 28th and will end on the first.

Post by: Venko on July 18, 2008, 10:50:59 AM: two fast questions :
1. Can we stack parts like heck or it must have "the realistic rule" ?
2. Are we need to put also a inside view of the bot with some tech info or not ?

Stack any legal way you want....you all know what is legal
An inside pic would be nice, but the weight is required.

You are allowed only one entry.

Like i said....I was in a hurry, besides stock is way different than DSL.
You need to enter to keep everybody on their toes.

Can we vote for our own bot, because otherwise I will probably get no votes.

Pysc always has an ace in the hole.
Title: BOTM August 08
Post by: Madiaba on July 23, 2008, 06:35:49 PM: Dragon, It looks good. Nice job. Dual plows = nice. You might tweak the skin a little more, though....

Pys., As usual, cool design. I like the chassis allot. Looks fast, invertible...
Though not part of this BOTM contest.... have you tested it much yet? How does it do against other MW's?.. like HS's? It looks like it might take out most opponents in 1-2 hits...

Title: My Entry For BOTM
Post by: MetalikVyper on July 24, 2008, 04:55:59 PM: This is my first ever entry, so its probably not as good as some of your bots, but hey, we all have a first at anything we do.

Post by: R0B0SH4RK on July 24, 2008, 05:17:50 PM: Damn, I'm going away today, and I get back on the day of the voting, so unless the deadline is extended, which it probably won't be, I won't be able to enter this one...
Title: BOTM August 08
Post by: Venko on July 24, 2008, 06:34:21 PM: Here is my candidate :

[ATTACH]118[/ATTACH]

He show a very good fight in combat, its fully invertable bot... I dont know what to say more... Im noob at rammers, so i try to do best what i can...
Title: BOTM August 08
Post by: Madiaba on July 24, 2008, 06:51:01 PM: Well great job, MV....for your 1st bot. You might lower the chassis to make it lighter and invertible.

Nice bot, Venko.
Well built(weapons and armor), efficient design, very nice skin and splash.

yes he does; i know MV quite well actually
Title: BOTM August 08
Post by: somestrangeguy on July 26, 2008, 06:45:45 AM: oh, sorry about that. DSA is not actually a cheat armor, thats why everyone uses it. You should have said it in the first place man.

Here is my entry:

Edit: Are Sage's skin pack parts are allowed? If not, I will change it.

thanks madiaba i will take in your advice for next month. p.s. it already is invertable.

Post by: Sage on July 26, 2008, 11:26:14 AM: YAY. someone used my pack. im sure its allowed.
Title: BOTM August 08
Post by: Venko on July 26, 2008, 06:08:29 PM: But why some of candidate pictures of yours are not 800x600 ?
Title: BOTM August 08
Post by: somestrangeguy on July 26, 2008, 06:26:18 PM: If I had stretched it all the way to 800x600, the bacground image would have been so blurry that no one could have told that what it is.
Not to mention all the empty space there would have been... It isnt as effective as it may look, it cant kill even 1 Starcore 3 MW... That is the reason why no battle shots are included...

Btw, if you didnt notice. System32's, pyscolone's and Somebody's pics are not 800x600 either
Title: BOTM August 08
Post by: infiniteinertia on July 26, 2008, 07:26:41 PM: pyscs is 600x800, basically same thing.

Yes, you can vote for your own......assuming you submit a legal entry by midnight tonight (Monday 7/28 Central time. your entry can be no more than 800x600

All other entries will be accepted, except for SSG and I will resize it for you....it is 602 wide and since it is over 600 tall it can't be over 600 wide.

Since I resize entries to 700 wide for the front page all future entries will be no more than 700 wide and no more than 800 tall. This will allow for better splash pics and I won't have to resize them.

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/48039BOTM_Soul Smash.png)

The collision mesh of the maces protects it from most frontal assaults while the angled sides and small chassis make it very effective against HS.

Edit: forgot to mention that the battle results were AI vs AI
