Jaydee99's custom component Showcase

[Jaydee99]

OK, Badnik said to start a new topic here, so I'm copying my bots from there;

Da Bolt;

In battle;


Magic Flame (not about skinning for this one, more ideas);


Flame On


Also, WHO BUILT THIS????


and one of my newest ones, Beggamyte;

[Jaydee99]

Premonition Device (interchangable flipper's)

[Mecha]

Looks decent.
Can we see the insides?
Also, I like Flame on.

[Jaydee99]

Yep, later tonight. I can't right now.

And here are premonition devices guts;

[MassimoV]

Looks kinda dumb honestly.

[Lemonism]

I quite like Beggamyte. The flipper is slightly odd, especially the skirt sticking up, but the chassis shape is quite nicely done. If the main part of the flipper was made of flippermakers or something it might look a little better.
The others don't look so good to me. If you're going for IRL bots, then make them actually look like something a real builder would make. Imo Beggamyte is the only one of these bots that achieves the look of a real robot. If you're going for just cool looks, then you need to put some more thought into the designs rather than just making a chassis and throwing on any old part.
Also skinning could be improved. Download some skin packs and you can make better looking skins in the bot lab, or you can learn how to use Paint.Net or any other painting program of your choice so you can make HD skins outside the bot lab.

What I use for good in-game skins

Yeah, I think most of it's been said by lemon, also try normal IRL dsl building, because once you get in a pattern, you start making good bots and RA2 isn't as fun when your using cheat parts all the time tbh.
Also, remember to post their weight, some of these designs could fit into MWs the way I see it.

Anyway apart from that, not really that a bad start

Lol, so does you avatar!!!

To Lemonism's point, I'm going for cool designs and my stock reps were all done on paint so yep and where do I download skin packs from?
Thanks Naster, Ill use them.
Anyway, Rebel's Revenge;

[Lemonism]

Go to 'Downloads' at the top of this page, and click 'Textures, Edges, and Decals' to find some skin packs you can use.

Done, reskinned Premonition device with naster's pack link he sent on here and I think all of these are HW's. I have a lot of custon components on my version of RA2 and most of the components don't need to be accessed by cheatbot2. I'll try to put some pictures of it up but i'm a bit miserable after England's loss right now. What do you all think of Rebel's Revenge then?

[MassimoV]

Dude, learn how to make a good skin.

Also, to MassimoV, KEEP YOUR SIGNATURE THE SAME! Or put all pictures on at once. It has changed 3 times today!!!

It's supposed to change, that's kinda the point. It does it automatically, if you thought he was doing it himself. No need to get so worked up about it :P
But I do agree with MassimoV, your skins do need improving.

Sig rotator baby! I should put some new content into rotation soon...

[Jaydee99]

Messing around a bit, with a stock version I installed from somewhere which I can't remember but had quite a while and I don't know where the Custom Components came from (there or Sage's Skin Pack) but I think this came out well;

Here's a better one;

[helloface]

On some angles it sucks and other angles it looks cool. If it was cleaner it would look good from all angles.

[Jaydee99]

Some new bots;
I had the line from cs188's new YTP 'Go Searching on the Internet in my head and this is a result (no weaponry, just for looks);

Testing Bigger Brother's flipper and I know it's not a good skin, neither was the one above but it's a good robot;

From the Warhammer book called Assault on Black Reach, a terrorhurtz no-havoking destructive robot;

13 black style which Jay-Z is quite fond of;

And a christmas awesome gift;

[Naryar]

clean your bots up, they're all too messy.

Please tell how I can improve then.
DaPika, what is that even supposed to mean?
