Not bad. Is it stock RA2?

It is

it was an hard job with a lot of problems.
texturing problems.
geometry problems.
and time problems.
it looked impossible...

...but i did it

What program do you use to skin and how do you do it coz damn I need to do that with my OBJ models.

i use Inkscape to make the textures. and for the modelling and UV mapping i use Maya.

I HAVE RETURN!

And I got the new REPLICA Battlebot

It's That Good R&D

and the chassis for the 5 (not so) mysterious bots are done! (well, 6 considering i redid bodyhammer)

ps= i edited pathetica a bit in ra2 to give it a less powerful axe engine. originally was a Jx burst motor (small), but it was too powerful, like 300-450 damage with iron spike.
so i changed it with a bsg2000, lowering it to 100-150. the mag snapper slow would have been more suitable but.
1) the real bot wasn't that slow with the axe (altough... pathetic(a) in terms of power)
2) the damage was still high (200-250)

They all look absolutely fantastic. It's a shame that the geometry constraints in RA2 are so limited in terms of chassis design that external software is required for something more than a box or a "circle". Torque of the Devil and RoboPig are both brilliant.

well, now that i notice, i think i rotated Torque's eyes too much, but it can be fixed easily.
Robopig wasn't hard to do, but a big problem was placing the eyes in a way that it looked similar to the original.

the previous version had more distant eyes, and honestly it looked bad. also it lacks ears because there's also a polygon limit for OBJtoRA2 chassis, which is 86 faces, and Robopig chassis was 80 faces, with ears it reached 94. so i need to do those in RA2, same for the tail.

anyway, if there's a result i'm proud of it's Pathetica.

For OBJ chassis, honestly, the only problem of over 86 faces cause is crashing the game when the chassis starts to spark in battle

yeah, i know. the way to avoid it would be making an armor so hard that it's impossible to reach critical damage.
but yeah, it's not the best idea.

Danangoo · « **Reply #7671 on:** March 31, 2019, 08:05:18 AM »

I think that some aspects of the design like ears can be easily compiled through the skinning aspect of design rather than a polygonal face aspect. Even without these aspects, I'm sure that people would appreciate the work that went into the physical design aspects and overlook a few inconsistencies in the final product.

One thing that I would change, however, is that I think the pink is a bit too dark and would be better as a salmon type of color, but that's just my view of the color.

yeah, looks better. i should change the texture color to the one you provided.

Color RGB - 161/86/112

You should make an AI pack out of these. They're amazing!

Cinghial8 · « **Reply #7675 on:** March 31, 2019, 01:58:55 PM »

you know what?
i wish i could do it, but i never programmed an AI in Robot Arena. and let me tell you. importing those bots in Sonny Resetti AI Pack to test them with AI bots that have strengths and weaknesses kind of gets annoying because it's a continous thing of copy-paste, copy-paste...
i would test them in base DSL 2 but the AI bots included are OP as ****.

is it hard to program an AI in RA2?

also.

It's relatively easy once you get the hang of it

fixed the drill of Torque of the devil.
the real one had 3 triangle blades placed like this.

so it would have been more suitable than just those two beaters. i put 4 wedges to simulate that, should have been 3 but i noticed just now that those triangles are 3 not 4.
it's bigger than his real counterpart, but i prefer it more than the previous result.

also fixed the texture a bit

also, talking about AI, another person (joelcool51) offered help to add it.

Cinghial8 · « **Reply #7678 on:** April 02, 2019, 12:27:25 PM »

so, i was planning to make Robopig as the next bot, but i've noticed that it still have something to tweak. also i'm undecided if i should make the eyes as separate components (cylinder extenders in RA2) or as texture. in my opinion the first sounds more suitable, but i have to test.
in the meantime i did a less known bot, or we can say in this case a "Reserve" bot.

Cinghial8 · « **Reply #7679 on:** April 03, 2019, 11:51:08 AM »

well, my friends, i think i did my decision but...can you tell me which one looks better in your opinion?

also, 4 likes for my Torque replica?! including Scrap Daddy?!

thanks guys!

didn't thought you liked it that much.
