seen it and... well.. nothing really. it is just different from HM. can't really inmagin it being much faster since when i tried mags+hypno's and then slimbody's+hypno's, there barely any difference. at least not a difference that is work noting.

On that flipper, I think your extender work could be made lighter and better.

I think your could wrap the drive around the chassis, attaching straight off the multi extender rather then those polys

My exact point.

wouldn't the battery's be in the way then for placing the drive then?

Naryar · « **Reply #105 on:** October 12, 2010, 04:28:38 AM »

Who cares... just half-stack the multi's INTO the battery !

it's not the ME that is the problem here, its the drive motors. that can't stick trough the chassis. only inside or outside, no combo allowed.

2 ME's, would be slightly heavier then 1 ME with a 20CM Poly extender. i am thinking about making a smaller chassis, but i don't want to get cloning other bots, like yours. i always try to stay original at least a little bit. that is pretty hard in some case's tho.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #109 on:** October 13, 2010, 11:10:32 AM »

But a 20cm poly extender is very vulnerable.

powerrave · « **Reply #110 on:** October 13, 2010, 11:46:10 AM »

true, but it's at the back, and there the drive motors would be quicker to take the hits. that is, if an opponent gets behind it and is instantly able to attack.

I imagine the damage would be more even, so the poly extend would be quicker to go. Try Slimbodies, and try putting them inside the chassis. Unless there's some efficiency error that I've missed.

done that. overall HM is now better, but i want to watch out of steering now. the wheel on the side i steer to gets lifter off of the ground.

also modified Phantasmagoria a bit. now with DLS bar Small Wedge combo, saving weight. used to upgrade armour. slightly better wedge and better armour... do like that. also thinking about putting an actual custom skin on this one.

4. I think.

Where did he get the weight from?

powerrave · « **Reply #116 on:** October 14, 2010, 01:59:19 PM »

no, just has 3 ants. reason, otherwise it wouldn't be able to self-right do to realism (poly extender passing trough ant).

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #117 on:** October 14, 2010, 02:04:16 PM »

3 ants is cool

powerrave · « **Reply #118 on:** October 14, 2010, 02:09:34 PM »

nah, it IS underpowered. but i am staying on the path of realism.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #119 on:** October 14, 2010, 02:11:52 PM »

But it's what all the cool kids are doing. :P
