Two of the major changes in DSL 2.0 are impossible to show in screenshots. One is an almost total re-writing of the txt files, making them more convenient, balanced, and gramatically correct. The other is all-new, more realistic sound effects. These things alone greatly increase the play value in my opinion.

Even though it's so hard to show you all this kind of stuff, I did my best and made a 2-minute DSL 2.0 preview video featuring some impressive hits and stunts.

(10 mb)

Enjoy!

Amazing how much of a difference sound makes, eh? :D

Hey I love the video can't wait! I was wandering if you may be able to bring the RA1 bots into RA2... you know red jiant and topknot and all. You know like make the parts and stuff... just a sugestion... but I love the way the new sounds and parts and robots all come together. I would also like to see the old arenas from RA1 but that may be a different mod. Glad you have found the drone loop sound but I would like to know why it was ingame anyway oh well god job guys.

Are you telepathic? :wink:

Well anyways, here is another sneak peek for today. Team RIOT, featuring some of the most beautifully constructed/skinned bots around.

LW - Civil Uprising: This nasty undercutting spinner can reach right under your bot's weapons and attack your wheels if you're not careful. Wedges will also have a hard time avoiding the weapon's bite. Invertibility makes it doubly dangerous.

MW - VENGEANCE: With the second-biggest horizontal spinner in terms of weight and the biggest in terms of diameter, VENGEANCE really packs a wallop. Its only weakness is instability, but being invertible does help offset this.

HW - Velociraptor: Undoubtedly the most artful bot in the pack. If virtual robots can strike real fear in their opponents, then Velociraptor is the one to do it. Velociraptor isn't all looks and intimidation, though: its twin claws can tear through your bot while you are still trying to penetrate its heavy armor.

Velociraptor rocks. I like the other two also, but Velociraptor just rocks. Great job with that team. I'd say that's the best team yet.

No I havn't see the RA1 bot in RA2... and click... does that mean you are making the RA1 bots too? I found something in RA12 the other day... a nonexistant arena and and the fact that the spark and impact stuff came from robotarena 1 (you know the damage stickers) so I thought you would like to know that... lol. Any way Nice work in DSL can't wait!

Lu-tze may not be with us anymore... but that doesn't prevent a new arena made by her from sneaking into DSL 2.0!

Introducing the Hamster Ball of Doom! This arena was just recently dug out of the deep, dark recesses of goose's computer. Apparently, it was made for the first DSL release, but in the rush to get the pack released it was forgotten (one reason we're taking so long with 2.0 - haste makes waste!)

The Hamster Ball of Doom is a very unique arena. Bots fight in a giant clear ball that rolls around a room. There is no safe ground: you never know which way the ball is going to roll and possibly carry your bot with it (unless, of course, you drive up the ball to make it roll the way you want and take your opponents for a little tumble :twisted: ). Big, gnarly spinners and ultra-low bots are much less effective on this arena; you want a fast, invertible bot with a versatile, durable weapon.

It's hard to show how cool this arena is in screenshots - you have to play it for the full effect - but I've included a few below anyway.

May i just say.DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG i love that arena!!

And will these all sweet stuffs be released during this year? ...

Mr. Apocalypse · « **Reply #152 on:** January 13, 2006, 04:30:29 PM »

I never knew that it would be possible to do that kind of thing. Good job.

Tygron007 · « **Reply #154 on:** January 13, 2006, 06:32:00 PM »

Cool! Is there also a arena that you are in separate hamster balls? that would bee cool! you know bumper ball bots! well anyway I love the DSL mod... is there more obstical courses? and the one that is already there de-laged? I saw on Lu-tze's site that that arena is one of MANY obstical courses... how did you guys get the wind tunnel working? How do game phisics (gravity mostly) work? Well good luck with the pack... and don't get your computers crashed lol.
