The UI could have used a bit more polishing but the functionality was pretty awesome. I should really finish working on mine...

I think Ian deleted them back when he deleted all the RA2 stuff that he had done because he was pissed/annoyed at people.

i asked ian a while back if he still had the videos and he said no... doubt it if anyone else have them

pys, 2005

effe, 2005

firebeetle, 2004

i liked the building style that some of the builders had back in the day. kinda makes me wish i had discovered this game sooner.

You missed a lot of good stuff, i can attest to that

EDIT:

Just a reminder to anybody just starting out that we all have humble beginnings. This is me circa 2006:

yeah it would have been cool to been around before stuff like snapper loading had been discovered or when people were still doing online tournaments.

building HS before snapper loading was hell.

some more stuff

foolishevil, 2004

clickbeetle, 2004. this was before people understood how e-rupt (first bot to use the rupting glitch) worked.

technex, 2004. made around the same time click's flipper was made

e-rupt 2 in action

metal virus, 2004

one of jimxorb's bots vs emergency. now i know what that one bot in pys ai was inspired by...

c2 vs jimxorb. i've actually seen this before but never made it past the 1st match. some cool flippers in this one.

watching these fights makes me think that someone should make a tourney where people would have to build with the same techniques available as back in the day, maybe even using click s'Sportsman ruleset he got the idea of a while ago

that's what i am thinking

i think this should be the irl equivalent of stock

some effe flippers from 05. by this time only a couple of ppl knew how the rupting glitch worked (some of the dudes who did know didnt want newbs to know it because they thought they would brag about how powerful their flippers were

) ...

apparently jim had another glitch that was more powerful than the rupt glitch. probably bs since dudes liked to txt file edit back in the day (ex: jex air 3), but it would have been atleast cool if i could find the bot or something... anybody that were around back in 2005 remember what it looked like?
