Gravity is okay. The rest is kinda.. eugh.

I'm kinda with Helloface on this. Cassius doesn't look right with the body and you could've used a burst hinge for the flipper like you did with Gravity.
Mace, the rear weaponry could be better but oh well and spawn of scutter could use smaller wheels and Trident, the axe you maybe could bfe the swing. Good attempts though.

Nice profile name BTW

Mega Hurtz 1
I'll be making a Generation A display tournament involving First incarnation robots that had a second/third... (Only my replicas)
So, I've made the Series 2 pece of hardware called Mega Hurtz. Uses a skinned LuTze PC and a skinned HalfTitanium Sheet at the front. At the back, an IronForge Iron Spike powered by an antweight motor. Skinned of course. I couldn't see much of the robot when skinning so I may finish it off later if I notice anything.

Happy new year!

Not bad, not bad. You should try resizing the bmp before you draw the skin, that way the stripes will look nice and sharp.

Definitely the best work I've seen from you. Good job man.

helloface · « **Reply #5906 on:** December 31, 2014, 03:56:36 PM »

actually pretty good

Jaydee99 · « **Reply #5907 on:** December 31, 2014, 05:46:21 PM »

Awww thanks guys. I enlarged the skin if that's what you mean but thanks for the advice. I have quite a lot to show you all.

Lemonism · « **Reply #5908 on:** December 31, 2014, 06:48:24 PM »

What did you enlarge the skin to? I do most of my skins at 2048x2048 but that is a bit overkill, especially with a simple design. 1024x1024 would do you fine.
But yes, other than improving the skin a bit I think you did a great job.

I can't remember. I enlarged the image and it was on normal paint. Now I have paint.net I don't think I'll use it again. Thanks for the compliment.

Terrorhurtz extreme 2:
I made the robot quite a time ago but I finished the skin today. This is my most favourite replica I've made. It's fast, unhavocing and destructive.
It uses a custom burst which Lemonism seperated from Ironforge (thanks Lemonism) and I customised the value. In case you can't see it, I fitted the small pole on the bottom of the axe handle which is on the real one.

Here's a video of the real one because my shots of it don't display it much:

Another showing the bottom:

Wheyyyy! First replica of 2015!

It's DSL3 armor plates. You can convert them to TGA's and basically carve out pieces.

So if you were to show the collision meshes with F12 you would still see a rectangular shape? That's clever, I hadn't even considered doing that.

before you do anything
Download this: https://gametechmods.com/Robot_Arena2/Tools/Dummy/makecfl.zip
Drag and drop the uncfl into the main directory and drag the components.cfz onto the uncfl file.
First, open up the bot in notepad++. Look down the file and it'll display all components used in the robot, and list them in the order they were placed. If the plate was placed last, it'll be the last Component listed. Look at the line that starts with Components. It'll have a / next to it, From there, if Styles/ doesn't follow components then look in the comonents folder. You will be looking for the txt file with the name of whatever follows Components/ in the bot file. Open it and look at the line with dir in it. Go into the folder that it says and then look at the model line in the txt. In the folder, it will have the gmf the txt file says it uses. Download the thing I've put in and Decompile it (It's simple, just click the top button and find the gmf, then do it again for the bottom button). Open the decompiled gmf with notepad++then scroll down to find this line:

(It'll normally be a bmp). Now look in the maps folder. Find the picture it says in the gmf file. There you can reskin the map. If its a tga file, open it with paint.net
If the code says Styles after Components, use the same method but look in the Styles folder for the txt file.

Not bad despite all what you said.

It's good but it's missing the Spikes on its back

cephalopod · « **Reply #5919 on:** January 05, 2015, 06:21:53 AM »

As you say, too tall, wedge too short. Flipper also flips weirdly, try and get the hinge where it should be if you can.
