Ok, I have a problem:

It keeps saying Bad file name or Number

File is s120a

Edit: I'll continue tomorrow. Not like that tourney is ending signups any time soon.

All I need to do is figure out why it keeps crashing when I compile the file.

What compiler are you using?

Can't pull up specs ATM, but it is Windows 10.
Edit: I also tried to just decompile then compile just the pack w/o changes and it crashed. Others worked perfectly.

from the beetlebros site:

"If you don't have the CD in the drive, Dummy's GMF Compiler will give you "Run-time error '52': Bad file name or number." Either put the CD in or download a different version of the compiler."

download serge's compiler/decompiler, they are much more up to date

Ok, which one is serge's?
Is it the c++ one?
Edit: hello?

Baconus_Yum · « **Reply #88 on:** December 09, 2016, 03:25:02 PM »

Sorry for double post, but I have fixed the breaking error. New robot coming soon.

kix · « **Reply #89 on:** December 09, 2016, 04:18:02 PM »

Would like to see it..
Serge' comp/decomp is c++ one

(hopefully don't get banned for posting a skinned component here.)
You remember that Swiss Army Bot?
I made some changes to the flipper:

Some Notable Changes and stats:
Skinned Skits. This took me an hour.
It is 710 LBS, but Alum 10. If I reduce the armor, and take off some of the extra armor, I could make it a good CW. Depends on what you think.
The Skirt that used to go through the motor doesn't anymore.
The Skirts are attached to Hinges.
Skin of Bot is the Bacon skin on the skirts.

Beware the Master of Bacon.

-Baconus

(If I get around to it, I might also edit the armor and change it a bit, especially the skin.)

Edit: tried to enter into Cybernetic, got rejected b/c it looked ugly.

Edit: Anybody know what to put if you want a Mechavore disc to be able to pass through the chassis? I am going to make a custom part that just does this.

Also probably because it's not IRL.

Baconus_Yum · « **Reply #94 on:** December 10, 2016, 07:41:42 AM »

Welp, I tried to make another bot for Cybernetic, ended up making a CW Hellachopper. 598 LBS, Alu 3.

3 Reasons why it probably will not be accepted:
1. It is Hellachopper.
2. It could look better
3. That whyachi support beams don't line up.

How about instead of just using the in-game texture tools, you export the skin and learn how to skin properly? That way, the bacon texture might actually look decent.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #98 on:** December 10, 2016, 09:41:04 AM »

seriously dude it is not that hard to make a decent-looking flipper in ra2

go online, look at pictures of robots. try emulating one in ra2. you can improve, you just need to put in effort.

I know Craaig already did a revamp of one of your robots (Hammatime), but I decided to do a take on your CW and make it a HW. This was what I ended up getting.

This weighs 796KGs, has 5mm titanium and has a neater setup for the wheels that use TWM3's instead of astros to make it quicker. The wheels are also inside the chassis to prevent damage, seeing as the ant wheels are rather fragile.

I'd get yourself paint.net for skinning as well as it is a lot better than using the botlab to paint your robot. I'm not trying to force you to build robots in my style, but it would be an example of something that would look neater than what you are making currently.
