#1 is hilarious. Voted.
#2 ... Not as good as #4.
#3 I'd of preferred to just see it in action, nothing else.. Also, I thought it was an arena or something.

Awesome.

1- looks like it took a lot of work, but...there's something missing.
2- Ehhh
3- What does it do...?
4- That thing is a work of art. Truly beautiful....and no custom parts for the record either. While it may not be combat-effective, it's UBER AWESOME!

#4 is my vote. Nice work to whoever built it...as if I didn't know... =P

#1: Cute and effective. Nice use of the HOJ2 wheels.
#2: Cool-Looking, but not a Christmassy as the other 3, which is what the BOTM is all about.
#3: Nice Video (Nightmare Before Christmas references) but I thought it was an Arena!
#4: I believe this was 123's entry, because he said somewhere he would do a reindeer, and Boy, Does he DELIVER! This guy gets my vote.

3- What does it do...?

there is plenty of descriptions on the splash ? annnnd a video too

1 - good work on the custom parts, came out nice in the end (I predict this is the work of one of those beetle brothers :P)

2 - there has been a bit of thought into this one... but I dont know.... I would like to know if the blue flames are an actual edit or just a cleaver HUE colour change  ;)

3 - I like the nightmare before Christmas theme, all the extra effects, flamethrowers, snowfall, etc is really cool... but it looks a bit lacking something imo. still very cool

4 - I think its pretty easy to tell whose building style this is, I must say with the only custom part involement was an anti ballast that is a true work of art to go against these custom bots. the detail in this is really good, shame there wasn't anymore angles of it

#4. It's kinda obvious who built it, although i wish you could have skinned the components, to make them look like real reindeers.

#4... the first three aren't really Christmas-themed, yes it's 123's work, and it's robotic art.

And for once, there is more work on the bot than on the splash...

Title: Re: Vote BOTM Dec 2009
Post by: JoeBlo on December 01, 2009, 05:43:32 AM
I disagree with the Christmas themes, I think everyone has done well here  :mrgreen:

I must also disagree with the fact more work was on the robot then the splash.. I think everyone has put in a huge effort towards entries this month,

I do however respect that despite all have a huge amount of work towards them all, #4 was focused all efforts in game, not so much out side the game in the mod scene  :mrgreen:

I think everyone should be commended and whoever wins will be a worthy winner

#1 was nice, I appreciate the hard work gone into making those components, but #4 gets my vote, just too epic. #4 would get over 9000 points from me if it just had skinned components.

I'd like download for #1. It looks intresting to use.

Hmm... Yeah you're right, i just didn't saw the video and the bots in detail because i was in a hurry to see the posts.

I must also disagree with the fact more work was on the robot then the splash.. I think everyone has put in a huge effort towards entries this month,

What i meant is that #4 is a both simple and efficient splash... not eye candy *COUGH* and is even more awesome than i thought.

Oh and i will give credit to #2 for using the NAR AI reskin :mrgreen:

Well, I have the antler build on another file.  So I

*important, do not take a snapshot before these steps*
1.  Figure out how many component are in the original file (which I will call TN)
2.  Figure out where the number starts on the antler (in this case 2)
3.  copy/paste the antler code
4.  Change the ID of parent component accordingly
5.  Except for the 2 main connection point that goes on the hex plate (exporter helps here), all other can be found by (current number + TN - 2)
6.  Be sure to change your component count after you are done.

Unless you make a computation mistake it shouldn't take more than 15-20 minutes.
