Are there ant walls?
And does it have a preview?

Somebody, that IS the preview. The walls are black, and the floor is the blue vortex. Since it's a low-lag arena, there are no obstacles, just a big open floor.

That floor is actually only one of twelve I sent to Mad. The walls were originally some gawdawful mustardy-yellow color, and I told Mad flat-out if he wanted me to do a nice floor skin, then the yellow walls have gotta go .... Same color yellow as in his video against the Mace-y's Christmas Tree bot - that little six-wheeler is his "testbot" for beating up.

Mad: How would that arena look if the walls were starfields? I sent you that map, too. Good choice on the floor.

Well, I'm not sure. Interesting thought.
To save lag I did not enable the walls to be skinned, but rather the color is set in the gmf.

BTW:Those were nice 'grafts' you sent over. Thanks, from both of us.

BTW2:What's wrong with 'bug-guts yellow'. (Oops,.. sorry, CB.)

Okay, I didn't know you had set the color in the gmf. Bug-guts yellow? Yeah, that would be an appropriate name for it .... Hey, while I'm here, though, can you please show me what line in the gmf changes the colors?

Have to tell you a quick funny story about the color yellow...: My father worked for Browning-Ferris Industries (BFI, the garbage company), and one day, the guys in the paint shop were repainting one of the forklifts yellow, on the boss's orders. Now, it wasn't painted the "normal" Forklift Yellow - somehow, they got the paint mixed up, and it was repainted the yellow you see on those parking lot poles ... that bright screaming glow-in-the-dark eye-hurting yellow .... on a forklift! The paint wasn't even DRY yet when the boss came out to see how they were doing - not the boss who told them to paint it, the BIG boss, like one of the owners of the company. His exact words (well, not quite, but you'll figure it out): "Repaint that [effing] thing NOW!" Needless to say, it got repainted ....

*MATERIAL_AMBIENT 0xD81E1E
*MATERIAL_DIFFUSE 0xD81E1E
*MATERIAL_SPECULAR 0xE5E5E5

the numbers after the 0x are called hexadecimals.
search on google for more codes. just remember to reverse it when you put it in the gmf. RA2 is weird like that.
