Title: **NEW BOT EXCHANGE** Testers wanted
Post by: goose on January 06, 2007, 01:11:24 AM: me, acams, and hopefully apanx are working on a new bot exchange that will be hosted here on gametechmods.com

some features:

-Automatically takes preview picture from the bot file
-Automatically takes Bot name from bot file
-Automatically takes Bot weightclass from the bot file

-Ability to sort by weightclass, weapon type, builder, ratings, and downloads

-saves a list of bots that you have already downloaded

- a page with all the bots you have uploaded, along with your overall rating(mean of all the ratings of you bots)

-create a list of bots that you want to download and download them all with one click into a zip file.

-if a bot requires a part that you do not have, you have the option to download it along with the bot.

If you are interested in being a beta tester, please post here and ill PM you a tester code.

I say it should be publicly available.

And why may that be?

Its easier to get testers to test somthing and find the bugs instead of publically releasing it and listen to people moaning about bugs etc.

Post by: goose on January 12, 2007, 02:00:30 PM: The bot exchange now gets the image from the bot file, sees if the robot is Stock or DSL automatically, gets the weight class automatically, and gets the bot name automatically.

There are just a few more things I need to polish up before I release the public beta.

Thanks to everyone that helped.

Sidenote: polish and Polish are spelled the same.
