Well I will get this started then.
Here are some Rhino CAD's I did for the ARC Vengeance2 if there is one.

This is my first ever 3D CAD design

darkrat made a replica pack right?

why do they have to be reps?... we can make our cads into an ai pack...

maybe a winter break project?

i think we should get advanced robot combat involved, they have many kick ass cads

Rhino 3D is only for CAD designs of bots for Robot RPG's and the like....

@ goose, no i dont have MSN, i have a AOL name, but dont currently have AIM installed, but can do it quick, my AIM is Deceptorbot, my YIM is Deceptor2

I have 3D Studio Max 4.2 and 6 but 6 is not currently installed, there is a problem with the licensing conflicting between them (4.2 is what i used for the CAD of slipped disc)

That sounds like a awsome idea.  If that is made i will start playing RA2 again.  Here is my input on it.

You mentioned ARC, how abaout making a ARC Vengence AI pack.  Maybe take the bots from ARC vengence and make AI bots out of them.  It would be a lot of bots so I was thinking maybe just 1 or 2 from each team that wan't to be in the pack.

This sounds like a great idea.

That may be directed at me, but I am waiting to see what can be done as to converting Rhino to max. I have not been able to do it yet, but I have Rhino v2.0 and I think 3.0 will do it.
Title: Robotic 3D Showcase (3d max, Autocad, Rhino, anim8or, ect.)
Post by: Diablo/Funky Junkie on December 18, 2004, 07:40:50 PM
You can convert it to .3ds, which can be imported into Max. I don't think you can actually export to .max in Rhino.

After all, it's only 4 s128-150 magmotors and 8 24v battlepacks to power the thing!

Isn't that bot going to be going quite slowly now? Because you have gearings from smaller -> bigger and that bigger is connected again to smaller and from there to bigger.

That means you really need extremely fast motor to make your bot move on rather good speed but at least it has a lot torque now.  :roll:  Though I doubt wheels won't have enough grip for that torque.

Edit: But if you are going to use tracks instead of those wheels there I think the grip will be increased greatly.

PS. Very nice pictures. Those look so nice.  :shock:  :D

Looks like it will be fast to me...drive needs to be at least 40:1 because electric motors work more efficiently at higher speeds.

the setup in that bot is 4 18v mini-ev's through an innitual 5.3:1 reduction, giving them an output speed just over that of an ev-warrior at 24v(near 5100rpm) then an additional 3.5:1 to achieve a final top speed of 17.5mph which it can reach in an estimated 1.75 seconds.

Has anyone here ever tried modelling in Second Life? I like the simplicity of the tools and the prims, and have made a few really simple bots like Wheely Big Cheese and Judge in it. The other fun part is that you can script Remote controls into them and even, perhaps, make an arena. No programming experience required, and no havoks :P!

Perhaps you could consider looking into it. Another good thing is you can also sculpt irregular shaped things outside of SL without costy programs, which means in this case, Blender, or even Wings3D will work.

Just some five-minute examples. Judge has a working arm, The flipper is really just an animated arm with a prim under the body that expands upward when something is ontop of it, throwing it into the air. The only special thing about the arena is the Pit script, which causes smoke to rise out when a bot falls in like the real Robot Wars arena.

Here's an older 30 concept that's not in the running currently. Looks cool for a wedge/plowbot, but I want to build something with an active weapon.

The gearing in the render would give it a top speed around 20mph

rings are hard cuz they need gears or wheels around the perimeter of the robot to keep the ring in place.

that is awesome.

one suggestion if the blade things on top of the bot where the other way round then it could be another weapon as the bots would go up the wedge and get sliced by them.
Title: Re: Robotic 3D Showcase (3d max, Autocad, Rhino, anim8or, ect.)
Post by: ACAMS on January 21, 2010, 07:53:37 PM
The blades on top are for armor, and to catch and hold enemy bots and carry them to the hazards.

Title: Re: Robotic 3D Showcase (3d max, Autocad, Rhino, anim8or, ect.)
Post by: ACAMS on January 21, 2010, 08:48:33 PM
The wedge is to get them up on the rows, and they may be better turned around now that I look at it, but they are mostly for armor. When I made it, ARC/Drowning City RPG rules favored armored bots. (I was REAL busy and had to drop out, but it would have lost to the regulars anyway)

Though a few more vertices than a sheet or ramplate, it'd be cool to have armor plates for RA2 that looked like the top of that bot....

True.

Thanks for the compliments, everyone. As proud of them as I am, there are probably even better CAD people on ARC. In addition to ACAMS, there's also Omega, Spatula and MadBull, who are all fantastic. I'll probably post some more sometime when I make more  ;)

Not sure where else to post this stuff. I wasn't wanting to clutter this thread up with my comparative fail, but I got my hands on a copy of Rhinoceros 2.0 from the ARC site somewhere the other night, and I've been getting to grips with the various commands, mostly the Box, Cylinder, Boolean and Group ones. Here's what I've made so far.
 
A crusher robot design for no obvious reason.

An attempt at replicating a Whyachi motor that does not appear in Robot Arena 2.

Razer: The Early years. The claw would be awesome if it was like 2 claws on one rig, but this is pretty cool. I wish we could make true crushers like that in RA2, where it's basically a pneumatic powered claw on an axle.

Feel like I should copy and paste everything from DeviantART post my stash here. My robot designs and splashes get better as the list and time progresses.

I have been working with Trimble Sketchup to create 3D rendered models of concepts for a featherweight robot project.

There are 29 models so far which I have made, with varying skill and realistic qualities.
These 29 are -
- Knave
- Lucid Dreaming
- Technetium
- Thunder
- Korbis
- Grated Cinder
- Broken Mallard
- Traumatic Flashbacks (No weapon heads)
- The Concept Of 27
- Wooden Toaster
- Octavius
- Parasprite
- Doome
- Disgruntled Housewife
- Tank The Second
- In Loving Memory - Robert Macphee's Credibility
- 20% Cooler
- WarhE.D.D.
- Mitzy
- Dovetail 2
- Ring A Ring O' Roses
- Fragmentor
- Bushido
- Meth Is One Hell Of A Drug
- Ricochet
- Skorp
- Snow Tiger
- Blackjack
- Handle With Care


Fell free to ask about any of the robots.

Fantastic selection of designs, there!

I actually once had an idea (And basic drawing) for a robot quite similar to 20% Cooler, except it was themed to Lyra, was slightly wider/lower, and had a Spawn of Scutter-esque angled pneumatic ram in the front wedge as well. Quite a funny coincidence, I must say.   :P

Ah, I see. =P I had an earlier crusher design that had something similar with a light sensor in it, so a signal could be sent to the controller if it was a good time to activate the weapon.
 
Kurt's stuff looks pretty good too, I reckon you might be able to have some fun over at ARC with them.

UUnfortunately it doesn't look likely i'll be able to texture this properly - trying to texture the forks is a major hassle as it seems to only be do-able one face at a time.
Here's a shortcut for you. Look exactly down with the fork on the right, or look exactly sideways with the fork on the right.
If you click and drag from right to left the selection field becomes a dotted line.
If you get even the smallest amount in the dotted lines it highlights the whole face.

Once you have selected all the faces keep them highlighted and render them with the paint tool.

Helpful?

Post by: dragonsteincole on July 02, 2013, 10:18:32 AM
I appreciate the help but I was maybe a little unclear - I can get the texture I want as a material, and then apply that to the forks as a whole. But the texture is very small, so it tiles over the forks. What I'd like to do is select multiple faces at a time, and then resize the texture over all of them. But I only see the option to do that one face at a time.

Is the size for each face the same or does it vary depending on where it is?

Post by: dragonsteincole on July 02, 2013, 11:16:10 AM
I have a texture sheet that has a top, a bottom, and the sides. What i'd like to do is texture everything from the top view first. So basically apply a material and then resize it so the texture fits over the model. Currently, when I apply the material to the model it tiles, so I have the same texture repeated over the model.

When I select a single face, and right-click, in the context menu there's an option for Texture > And then a few options that allow me to resize the material so it fits. But If I select any more faces, this menu is absent. This is my problem. There is no way for me to adjust the material for the whole object, I can only do it face-by face, and for an object that has 6600+ of them, thats obviously something i'm not going to do.

3rd Update: Skirts. As a FYI, the components are separate models. It's not just one big static object, in an ideal world i'd convert them to RA2 parts.

The texture I made for the forks:

Post by: dragonsteincole on July 05, 2013, 07:56:51 PM
Years of skinning racing cars for games, and RA2 mainly. RA2 has the better texture work though.

I think the term is weathering, which is taking something and making it look much older/imperfect than it actually is. So for these forks, I basically took a black image, and built it up with textures and such to make it look like it's actually been used, rather than a pristine part.

Also, work big. Make it super detailed, and then scale down if needed. Much easier than taking a small image and stretching it so it's big but crap quality. Even 1024x1024 is relatively small by today's gaming standards, but for RA2 i'll scale it down to 512x512.

Made a new robot in 2 hours 2 nights ago. Uploaded it to DeviantART if you care.

- Whack O' Lantern

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/86185Whack O' Lantern.png)

DeviantART description below.
"One of the concept ideas for a possible featherweight project.
Hallowe'en came out of nowhere so I thought I'd do a robot out of nowhere, only made in about 2 hours last night. 37-sided hemispherical wireframe chassis with orange polycarbonate or acrylic for armour. Similar in many ways to Doome except the axe on this is powered by a pneumatic rack and pinion as opposed to a motor driven one. Smaller than other robots but it should be alright. Can also use the axe to roll back over.

Created using Trimble Sketchup.

Fresh from the Sketchup Garage I present my newest robot, Orbit.

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/49910Orbit.png)

No armour other than the frame. Pneumatic flipping arm. Can self right.



Also I'm releasing a pack with all 64 robots I've made recently.
Including all 58 I have featured in this thread such as Drumblebee, Handle With Care, Knave, Thunder, and the newest Orbit.

Also including 3 finished robots that I never made splashes for, Tank, R.C.W. and Checkmate.
Also has some basic concepts, Steampunk, Tracked Pusher and Unnamed Flipper.

(I have no idea what the sizes of Thunder are so it's probably huge compared to others. Also Snow Tiger is 10 times bigger than it should be.)

Thanks for the advice. I need to keep the wedge for stability though. I think I came up with an idea to prevent what you're talking about. I'll make it later.

Here's a little thing I did one day- my first attempt at building Robots in Maya!
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/8195DreadnoughtMaya.png)
In particular, this one was a prototype version of Dreadnought Mk 2, my ARC HW for FRR: No Mercy. Aspects such as the sleeker chassis and bigger flipper (Not to mention the bolts!) are there that would appear on the Final Version, but there were some things that I changed later as well, such as the more exposed rear wheels and the Spike on the back- that last detail was carried over from the original, but I later removed it due to it deducting too much power from the Flipper.

Although I do have a bit of experience with the Software from my University course, the reason I don't primarily use it for rendering robots at the moment is due to the difficulty with applying custom textures and stuff to objects. Once I get more of a handle on that though, I may revisit it for the purpose of rendering my own designs. For now though, enjoy.

Yup. Something I've recently been better able to do, you could say- once I've cracked applying the textures and stuff, I should be able to fully render robots on my own.  :P

Glad you think it looks cool, as well. Took a bit of doing to get the shape of the Chassis and the Flipper right in particular, but I'm pretty pleased with the results. I'll keep on practicing and see what else I can come up with.

Another possible ARC competitor? Good to hear, hope you can make it.

As for the design- not bad for a first go, but try making the bar a bit thicker and lower down, so it's easier to hit opponents with. You should also try to include a srimech if you can- they're very good things to have.

the drum/block thing seems really small and won't damage much.

Removed the self-righters cause i'm pretty sure that it could self-right with the weapon IRL

It wont self right with the drum IMO. Theres not enough torque. However, it would be better if you could find a way for it to be invertible, so the drum doesnt get nerfed.

On that note, here's one I made.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/95208Dieoxide.png)
This is Die Oxide. I'm not sure of which weight class to use it in at the moment (Maybe LW?), but it's a 2WD Rear-Hinged Flipper based on designs like Tsunami and Barbaric Response. However, I designed it with improved spinner resistance from features such as angled armour plating and a protective panel underneath the front of the Flipper, as well as improved self-righting. It's designed to put itself back over with even the minimum amount of CO2 using the rollbars on the back, making it versatile.

Its main feature however, is the massive Flipper on the front. Running on High Pressure CO2 and driven by two enormous gas rams, it's a weapon well-suited to chucking opponents forward and up for maximum efficiency (And OOTAing potential in Arenas that have it.), and will be complemented by high-powered drive to ensure it's both fast and powerful. Thoughts?

So after Badnik made me realized that the current design of Golden Blaze had no chance in FRR s'HW division
Here is the design i came up with

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/27417Golden Blaze 4.PNG)

Golden Blaze is a classic Tornado Mer design with a quite massive S7 tool steel blade, and in case it gets overturned, Gyroscopic effect will make it self-right the same way as the real one (for an example of this there is the Redrum vs Tornado Mer fight on youtube)

Sounds quite generic, right?

Now here is the fun part the bot as actually acting as a Melty brain Sit-n-spinner and you guys maybe noticed the tooth at the sides of the circular chassis, this plus the quite fast spinning speed of the bot makes it can do quite a lot of damage; not to mention that it gives another mean of offense if the blade break down in battle, so yeah the blade already cause a nice amount of the damage to wedges, but the spinning motion of th chassis can knock them away while they are trying to get under, this is especially useful on bots too flat for the blade to reach them.

So yeah: DIE WEDGES DIE!!!

Ah, that's a pretty cool design- I've always quite liked machines that can both lift and crush.  :P

Reminds me actually- here's one I made earlier for ARC. The Lifting Scoop can go around the Crushing Rams, so that it can self-right quickly.

Not sure if this is the right place but they're doign "Draw a robot" prompts on FB.  The requirements for this one were "skid drive" and "based on an 80's toy" and also I had about an hour to work on it.  So here's my bot based on the game Mousetrap, with what I think is "skid drive"  The gears make a Tentoumushi style cage go up and down, and the spring-loaded cat claws scratch at it.

The Fire Pit is underwhelming.  We need a constant stream of flame for when bash catches his opponent.
Besides, he was part of the original 4, Killalot was more droppable than Bash.

Did someone say "potential Robot Wars designs"?

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/1524defcon_concept3.png)

This is Defcon, I think I showed off a WIP version in the Discord a little while back. It's a compact vertical spinner with a unique trefoil-shaped blade - don't know how effective it'd be (and it could probably be beefed up a little), but it looks pretty cool. Underneath the armour I've actually modelled the chassis and most of the internal mechanics, but I haven't modelled stuff like mounts so everything's just kinda floating :P

I lack the engineering skill to build this but it's a cool "what if" design. I have a couple of others that I might work on as well.

And here's a WIP render of a robot I'm designing for a story I'm planning. I think I made the internal volume too small because I can't fit the internals in nicely. And yes, those are googly eyes.
