Dual BSG flipper and nippy drive. 3mm Ti and NPC fasts.

Plunderbird 2010 (exported from Bot Lab, no AI)

Both new bots look fantastic. I need to give realistic bots another go. =D

How would you like to help with Realistic AI, an AI pack specifically for realistic bots.

Yes, I know I sounded like a person of TV

This would be great, apart from me having only the most basic of knowledge of AI'ing. I can make a smartzone and make it move on its own, thats it. :/

Stagfish · « **Reply #65 on:** November 12, 2010, 02:00:17 PM »

I can AI, you only have to send me the bots.

I can do even less, I have tried but I am just no good at AI'ing, skinning yes, AI'ing no!

I just saw your new bots and I have to say you and Thy are the 2 best IRL bot builders ever. I would send Dreadehog aswell.

That's fine, I'll settle for third. =P

Thyrus · « **Reply #69 on:** November 13, 2010, 01:56:49 AM »

lol? "Thyrus" and "best" sounds strange in one sentence :P

I think NFX, DSC and me are somewhere on the same level but DSC makes the best skinns.
Thanks again for sending me you bots :)

After 2 weeks of starting a new job, I'm finally getting back to a decent creative mindset. So presenting two new bots.

Flipper is accessorised with small beater bars to try and add a little Maulerness to that weapon, and to give it some damage capability. Can move inverted, but can't self-right right on its back, and the flipper becomes a naff hammer

No paintjob yet as i'm toying with ideas for it, but a bot with a lovely big set of .... spinners. Sure she has a wonderful personality too.

Those look... Amazing. Can't wait to see the awesome skin you'll give Dicsus.

Mauler looks amazing. I might get shot for this, but I think Discus looks quite good as is. All shiny and pristine and such.

Shinier and more pristine :P

It looked better before.

I would keep the color and just give it some eyes in the big panel that faces forward. No mouth, just evil looking eyes.

MassimoV · « **Reply #78 on:** November 27, 2010, 12:30:46 PM »

Instead of having a solid color, you might want to try a pattern instead.

If i had the ability to use a 512x512 .tga instead of just a 256x256, i'd try to give it a finish similar to Cerberus from RW S3. at the lower res though it just looks too blotchy :/

But elsewhere, two new bots have appeared!

Similar to the original Panic Attack, I wanted to try and make a simple, uncomplicated bot that was just sturdy and dependable. Also, i'm unsure how exactly I got the chassis this low in the botlab, but it runs inverted too! On hypnos! but from there it cannot self right so the flipper becomes redundant.

Having never built a bot using the steering motor, I paid homage to one of the most famous bots to use the 'car-steering' style, Killerhurtz.Wishing I could have made the front wedge more in style with the bot though.
