Whilst testing some IRL prototypes recently, I had a bit of a thought. I know it's going to sound ridiculous coming from me, but hear me out- what if there was a DSL mod similar to NAR AI, except dedicated to purely IRL designs?
With the more overpowered and unrealistic standard DSL designs out of the way for once, and with people potentially submitting all sorts of different designs for IRL robots (and maybe other things as well) provided it gets off the ground, I could imagine it being a good mod for building and playing with more realistic designs, and a great means of taking both old and new members back to where it all began in RA2.
Not so sure about what to do with the replicas though- they could either be removed, or maybe kept in but grouped together in secondary teams, modified to be more legal to the game, and with the scrapped components removed to improve running performance.
I know it sounds crazy, but do let me know what you think.
-
I could really try.
-
I think it would be awesome. :)
-
i'd submit a team this is original
-
I like that idea. I could send 2 of my bots.
-
I only make IRL style robots anyways, as I hate the unrealistic style ones. I highly support this idea and wish you and anyone who participates, good luck.
-
Sounds like a good idea to me. I'd be more than happy to submit robots for this.

If I can, I'd like to make this my next project (after I finish up the uber-tournament). Would that be OK with you guys?

This has already been suggested... and went down.
-
If you and a couple of others are dedicated to making the AI Pack I see no reason why you shouldn't make it. More variety is hardly ever a bad thing.

Realism Ai was full of custom parts and was honestly sort of a letdown. This is supposed to be NAR AI for IRL.

Not talking about Stag's work. Craaig suggested roughly the same thing, heck it's still here on the front page : https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,9706.0.html (https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,9706.0.html)

well sorry. There have been at least 3234738293492376765923 different proclamations for an IRL AI pack. I was just going to finally coordinate all of it.

oh noes controversy
:P
rather then dog-piling on who did or is going to make what first, you should all team up and work together.. you get more out of it that way..
before you ask.. I have no interest in IRL building.. sorry guys :mrgreen:

Well, we'll need to have it organized. We should come up together with a list of robots that we will make (say 1, 2 teams or a set of 3 bots, or even 1 individual bot). We can create them ourselves and submit them to whoever will be our leader.
That poses a problem, though. With too many people working on the project, a number of people will want to be leader. We could probably have up to 2 people working together as leader, but no more, as timing would get erratic and spontaneous. We will need someone who is a strong leader, team player, well-spoken, and dedicated enough to start and finish the project.

Electing yourself as the single person in control doesn't exactly scream teamwork... just sayin'
Not saying you can't do this solo, but as a counter argument to my post, it doesn't make all that much sence..

I'll go and start a thread to get a list of builders together, OK?

I thought that bit screamed "I WANT TO BE THE F*CKING LEADER" well enough...
but alright. Get it up ASAP.

I'd make two whole teams for this: Team Toriodore and Shima.33 Robotics.

There is a reason I didn't do anything about it - I dropped it as I was told the.. 'Secret Plans'.
-
I was also told the secret plans, but it didn't stop me XD
-
I like the sound if that.
-
This whole IRL building style is really starting to get out of hand.
