Ok, I just got RA2 a week ago and registered today. I've just been wondering which mods do most people have and which ones are recommended especially for online play? Also would a bot with two sets of fast spinning saws that leave no opening for other attacks be shunned or no... If this needs to be moved go ahead I just figured these were pretty general questions.

Hello! Welcome to the forums!
You may want to go ahead and get DSL 2.1... A link to a complete install can be found in Sage's and Naryar's signatures. Sorry to say but there really isn't much online play anymore, but there are many online AI tournaments in which to compete.
About the robot, if you have built it in an unmodded version of RA2 the saws aren't very good, so your bot may be fairly weak in comparison to some of them here.
Start a showcase in the Stock Showcases section and show us what you have so far. We can give you lots of tips on better building techniques.
Have fun with RA2!

hecko everyone and nicsan2009 just plain random :p
anyway I download the DSL 2.1 mod and some others. I found a really cheap mod (forgot name) that has a battery and CO2 tank that almost never runs out. As for the AI tournaments do we just rename controls based on what they do then use on of the AI mods or what. Also how do I make my own parts: Could I use blender instead of Max? I already have python if I need it (just figured since there are python scripts in the games dir).

If it never runs out, it's a cheat part, don't use them.
About the components, i'm not sure, 3d Max is the only program i know that lets you make components.

it should be possible as long as there's a GMF plug-in right? Also i can't help but notice your sig, is LIFE ROBOT ARENA2 the forum troll?

He is banned now.
-
He might have returned though...
-
I think he did
-
I was thinking that myself... I think he might have made a new username.
-
that depends as it is possible to ban public IP addresses from accessing a forum to prevent multi accounting, unless he has the knowledge/equipment to change his public IP address lol
-
Some sites do ban using the IP address registered with, but then again yes it can be changed but it is very hard unless you use a program. The only thing I can tell you is to watch out for similar behavior. Then again from what I read many people have repeated that behavior (no names).

This forum does have IP banning.....
If y'all miss him so much that you can't quit talking about him in evey damn thread.....I can unban him!
I have deleted threads and posts about him and now here is another one.....keep it up and I will unban him!
