Can somebody hook up an old member?
« on: October 04, 2009, 11:46:17 PM »
Well, as you all know, I've been away for quite awhile. I haven't built or posted any bots since my BBEANS5 entry that I built while I was in Army AIT. Anyway when I left there, I sold my laptop to a friend who was going to be stuck down there for awhile longer. Also, through an unfortunate accident, my RA2 CD snapped in half. When I got home, I found out that my parents had been forced to reformat our home PC, so all the bots that I had ever built, along with my only copy of RA2 were lost forever. I wasn't really all that devastated by this because I had gotten into some other games anyway. After that, I continued to monitor my BBEANS progress, but other than that, have hardly thought about RA2. Well, it just so happens that I am in college now, and I just recently got the urge to get it again. Unfortunately, as I said, my copy of RA2 no longer exists. I can probably pick up a cheap copy on e-bay, but I could swear I saw somewhere on here that there is a full version of the game available for download.
It isn't on the GTM download page though, and a forum search brought up little of value, so I'm asking "Is there a place where I can get the full version of Robot Arena 2?" Also, out of curiosity, does anybody happen to have copies of any of my old bots?
im just waiting for meganerdbomb to come along and kick things into gear.

Well, I did find a complete download on there. Thank you.
 I cant get the game to run though. I'll try to figure it out later.

Unlike you, I make sure that I have two copies. One on a flash drive and one on my PC.

anyway, other than that I can't think of a way to help you, bold one.
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

Yea, copying my game to a flash drive would have been a good idea. I would definitely have done that with my bot's if I had been there when they reformatted the PC at home.
Clever secret message by the way, I'll try that if I can't get this downloaded version to work.

You can download the InfiniteInertia AI beta. It's a full game.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

As far as getting your bots back goes, all of your BBEANS entries are in the recently released BBEANS AI Pack (shameless plug).  But that's all I know of.
