MV, you cannot just change the number of bots in a team, out of game. The txt in that same directory keeps track of how many bots are in each team folder for the exe. Your causing a conflict between the 2. This is the prob.
Seems to be pretty messy now, I suggest you try to save your bots and then reinstall (as Urjak suggested).

Urjak, you have now entered the realm of Venko because you are no longer a "weight class"

I know, isn't it great! :D

MV: For some reason, RA2 dosen't let you delete the Rookies team. If you do, all of your teams get offset from the programming or something. If you don't want this to happen again, re-install RA2, but this time, don't delete the Rookies, just delete their bots and rename them, etc.

Man, is THAT what that is? I've been wondering that as long as I've been playing.

thats not true, i have all 15 team slots filled and the rookies are not included.

Well it messed up my teams too when I deleted the Rookies in DSL.

I think it's just a matter of how you delete the team. perhaps messing with the Teams.txt after having removed the team folder...

MetalikVyper · « **Reply #30 on:** September 05, 2008, 11:26:39 AM »

okay stock works properly now but dsl still dosen't, so i decided to reinstall ra2 and then dsl into the dsl folder i created called C:/Program Files/RA2-DSL/Robot Arena 2. after reinstalling ra2 without dsl installed i opened it and the normal stock start up pics appeared but then the dsl start up sound sounded but it was still the stock main menu, and after that the 2 dsl teams i had created before i reinstalled were still there, shouldn't rookies be there? and also my dsl bots were still there too but they weren't in the folder. what do i do guys please help, i need to get my bot in for RAW!

It sounds like you're not fully uninstalling. Delete your DSL folder and copy the stock RA2 that works. Then install DSL.

MetalikVyper · « **Reply #32 on:** September 08, 2008, 12:06:05 PM »

i did that click beetle and i made a bot in the game installed in C:/Program Files/RA2-DSL/ and i exported it but when i went to the Robot Designs folder it wsnt there, nor was it in the team folder.

Clickbeetle · « **Reply #33 on:** September 12, 2008, 09:48:53 PM »

Just Program Files/RA2-DSL? Not Program Files/Infogrames/RA2-DSL? Dunno if it matters, but you might try having both games in the Infogrames folder.

Is the bot still there when you boot up RA2 again, or does it get lost as soon as you exit the bot lab? If it's still there, the only explanation must be that you're looking in the wrong folder. Make sure you look in the folder for the version of RA2 that you're actually playing.

MetalikVyper · « **Reply #34 on:** October 02, 2008, 11:43:10 AM »

i cant create another folder called C://Program Files/Gabriel Interactive/ cus the folder already exists. and i do exit the lab and the bot is still there in the game but not in the teams folder.

MetalikVyper · « **Reply #35 on:** October 02, 2008, 12:12:06 PM »

Okay i instaled RA2 completley again for stock, and then i put starcore on that and it works fine. So i decided to Create a folder called ...Files/RA2-DSL then i started up the RA2 installer and tolod it to install RA2 in ...Files/RA2-DSL this would men that it would put another stock version into that folder right? well no when i started the game from that folder it made the dsl startup sound and when i went to the teams folder there were my 2 old teams from before i uninstalled and the rookies wernt there and it doesent export. but the stock Ra2 works fine so im going to have to put dsl components into stock so i'll have both stock and dsl components in my single game clever me!

Urjak · « **Reply #36 on:** October 04, 2008, 11:53:26 AM »

Thats weird, the folder spot shouldn't have any effect on the game, because my stock RA2 is in "My Documents".

MetalikVyper · « **Reply #37 on:** October 08, 2008, 01:52:00 PM »

well my system is running on the ACAMS loathed, Windows Vista. so thats probably why its all f***** up, LOL :)

MetalikVyper · « **Reply #38 on:** October 10, 2008, 11:58:39 AM »

well thanks for all your help guys, looks like i'll have to somehow get dsl armour and stock armour into one game and to get the dsl ai into the same game as my stock. someone will do that one day...hopefully anyway.
