Oh?
Hmm.....
*considers entering*
-
I reckon I'll have a crack at this one.
-
Military veichle you say?
You were right, this will change everything
Yeah ill have a go
-
Hrmm :idea2:
Yep, i think i will enter this, good idea on the millitary vehicle thing BTW, it definately mixes things up a bit.
-
I know exactly what I want to make. Doing it will be the challenge.
-
:O yay, thanks ACAMS
*runs off to find Madiaba*
-
My question still stands: Can we make futuristic stuff?
-
Damn, no custom parts... I actually have made the Mammoth Tank from C&C Renegade in DSL, but I think it is a SHW and it uses custom cannons tank treads and the Mega adapter.

I tought I had posted it in my showcase, but I quess I was wrong. I will fetch a few screens and post them soonish in my showcase.
Edit: It seems like that games Styles folder is corrupt that I have this bot in, so I cant open the bot ingame(crash) or even open/copy/move/delete the styles folder, I keep geting Cyclic redoncary check error, or something like that, a crapton of files and folder on that harddrive give the same error, wich is why im having it being recovered to another harddrive before I lose everything(850Gb of stuff) And the recovery has been going on for 4 hours and theres is still 23hours remaining. So wait alittle, k?
-
hmmm.. maybe is should give this a shot. i already have an idea about how i could make something. =D

I feel like making a dragon tank from Generals. It is my absolute favorite really.
-
I've got an idea. =D
-
i just realised something... a splash may be quite in the way for me. i suck at making those, and i don't have any actual powerful opponents to fight (only having Stock and DSL 2.1, no other custom stuff). so even if i would make a food bot, my entry will still suck =[
-
Your splash doesn't necessarily have to have battleshots in it, it just needs to make the robot look cool. Many of JoeBlo's winning splashes didn't feature battleshots at all, stuff like Tri-Mangle and Mystery Pyramid.
-
pretty much.. who wants to see the same old arena over and over
I have even reskinned arenas before just to make the splash look better :P
-
This is splash of the month anyways. The fighting capability doesn't matters a lot.
-
eh.. I dont think of it like that myself.. I never aim to be dependent on the splash,
I did suggest a splash-less voting and then the winner displays the splash on the front page (so its not the same dull bot lab pic every month)
-
Yep.
Many BOTM entries have claimed 'potential' instead of 'actual' characteristics.
It's mostly 'splash' skills now.
-
There was the idea of a Splash Template that all entries had to adhere to, but I don't think many people liked that idea.
-
That is why I have been thinking about making it a REAL bot of the month....you have to send the actual bot file in to be voted on. It would be a LOT of trouble for every body, but would be more accurate.
We will probably do one like that next year, and about every 2-3 months afterward.
-
i will probably still try something. i just don't have high expectations on myself.
-
I personally always vote on the ingenuity of the bot over just effectiveness.
-
Can't join this time.

Do it :P

:welcome

Hi there. We hope you have a nice stay at GTM.
-
innsane ? Are you SSG multi-accounting ?
-
I don't mean to spoil anything, but my entry is just plain bad. :gawe:
-
in the end, i didn't have anything at all.
