Regarding the drum, I built something like that about a year ago, but its wedges sucked. Yours are probably better though.

Personally, I find that having more individual weapons on gut-rippers is better; try a combination of small beater bars and small DS teeth.

You could probably get away with 6 ants on the hammer, but the output from the motors might not be as much.

It's not that much of a clone since it went from Stock HW to DSL MW :P

LURK MOAR

I made a DSL MW Wammer with Strafe Drive and a DSL MW Flamethrower with Strafe Drive, shown just after Blitzkrieg won but were made before...

one massive issue with your clones of Crossfire and Crossroad is they are not invertible

the Drum is cool.. I dare say it reminds me of SB's entry in TWOC :P sorry and the hammer is pretty cool.. but yeah better weapons for it like Nary said.

cool stuff though.. I have become a regular visitor to your showcase.. something I don't do to many :P

@JoeBlo: The clones are invertable for what ever reason. I think it has to do with the large colisin mesh of hypno wheels. :P
Thanks I didn't know my showcase was popular.

@NFX: The drum is invertable but looses most of it's effectiveness.

well thats questionable for realism but

we already use invisible armour so why not invisible wheel grip too.... you should add some on Sheesh KaBot :P

Wish I could but I can't find the F12 key in my workshop so I don't know the current collision mesh of my wheels. :P

Naryar · « **Reply #187 on:** August 30, 2010, 06:06:10 AM »

Hypno wheels ? Large collision mesh ? You're kidding right...

JoeBlo · « **Reply #188 on:** August 30, 2010, 06:07:30 AM »

collision, grip, same difference.. I knew what he meant

NFX · « **Reply #189 on:** August 30, 2010, 06:12:03 AM »

All wheels have a collision mesh that extends the same distance from the surface, IIRC. I thought it was something to do with resistance.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #190 on:** August 30, 2010, 07:15:58 AM »

not collision.. the collision is the green mesh that sits tightly around the wheel itself .. the red mesh is where the grib is applied.. the stock wheels had quite small ones but some DSL ones have large.. 123 demonstrated this exploit but using the bike wheels on a crawler to allow perfect grip and drive

Naryar · « **Reply #191 on:** August 30, 2010, 10:41:41 AM »

Is it really a crawler since it has wheels ?

JoeBlo · « **Reply #192 on:** August 30, 2010, 10:43:36 AM »

lol your call mister crawler hater :P

but it only used the grip mesh... the wheels were concealed inside the "dome" components making the crawler weaponry

Naryar · « **Reply #193 on:** August 30, 2010, 10:44:43 AM »

IRL crawler, RA2 full body drum.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #194 on:** August 30, 2010, 10:49:25 AM »

I wouldnt call it that myself, I see a FBD as this

https://gametechmods.com/TournamentFiles/botm/Jan10/008.png

the drum can be spun desperately without the drive.

but back on topic now,

I don't know what it is, but Asylum Seeker's like it.

SKBT · « **Reply #196 on:** September 01, 2010, 08:20:06 PM »

I know this is kinda a clone and I don't even know if harpoons are in NAR AI any more but I though this was a milestone for me and a chance to try out a new font :P

Somebody · « **Reply #197 on:** September 01, 2010, 08:53:19 PM »

Try and shrink the chassis a bit. It seems to be quite a large target right now.

inplabth · « **Reply #198 on:** September 01, 2010, 09:42:23 PM »

What angle did you use on the axles? I've had best luck with 90 degree ones for the extra sweeping power.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #199 on:** September 02, 2010, 10:36:34 AM »

which font ? PhoenixOne ? I used that for my other website (non RA2 one)

but yeah you could get away with making a cross or 4 point star shape chassis (cloning Ounce IIRC :P)
