Title: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on September 27, 2009, 10:51:49 AM
Hey
I`m new to this forum, but I play this game for more than 2 years (non stop).

I already saw many robot from other players. Some I liked, some not.
What i don`t like are those everything-has-to-spinn-to-destroy-the-other-bot-as-quik-as-possible- robots.

I prever the real looking machines.

and here are some of my creations:

Please make these pics PNG's and use the gametechmods image uploader (here: https://gametechmods.com/?do=indexih), then post the first link it gives you on this showcase. A lot of people won't want to download your BMP's.

Good to see more DSL'ers on the forums.

I like your building style:smiley:, but majority of your bots don't have a enough weapons for their weight class and they look like they would do terrible in battle.
Title: Thyrus` Showcase

Thanks for learning how to post pictures in your message. It makes it far easier to look at your bots.  

I like DirtDevil2. It looks cool. You will find that some members on the forum will respect that you favor building realistic bots and you will find that other members will constantly overlook your desire and prod you to make them more combat effective. Do not be discouraged by this and continue to have fun. It looks like you put a lot of effort into your building.

It`s because I loved Robot Wars when it was on TV. I always wanted to build a Robot on my own, but i don`t have the knowledge and the money to do it. And there are so many ways to life your creativity. my way is to build some Robot with that game. (I should get an Oscar for that speech Oo) :D
Title: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Naryar on September 27, 2009, 01:25:37 PM
If you don't like spinners you can go rammers or pokers... they can be killers if well built.

Or popups of course.
Title: Thyrus` Showcase

I also agree that looks do kill, but bots must always be effective as well.

I like your style, however.
Title: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Naryar on September 27, 2009, 02:25:18 PM
Good thing in DSL is that you can build realistic killers.

However, i think you should get more weapons on your bots and try to lighten your extender work - don't use the old Stock extenders as they have low hitpoints for their weight.
Title: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: 123savethewhales on September 27, 2009, 02:28:03 PM
Looks nice.
Title: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Viper89 on September 27, 2009, 03:53:47 PM
I noticed Atila has "alot" of extra weight. You could change the weapon spinner on it and put a bigger Disc on it with more weapons. And for the front you could get rid of the square extenders and put weapons that would do damage in replace for them. Also always try to build to or close to the weight limit for each weight class. Those are just some suggestions but if you put more weapons on that bot it would be a beast:evil:.

allthough in DSL, u can build realistic killers.
Title: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: takatsukiyayoi on September 27, 2009, 08:59:30 PM
AggroCat might actually be quite ideal for low-walled arenas like the BBEANS one. Maybe if it has a very powerful flipper.

You might want to lower the amount of extender work - only round extenders and the flipper pieces seem to hold up reasonably well.

What are SNS?

I think ist`s great that you can build any cind of Robot with this game. There are many ways to build those quickkill bots bur also many ways to build realistic bots.

and even if I don`t like the quickkillers i respect that there are people who build them. :)
Title: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: 123savethewhales on September 28, 2009, 02:43:16 AM
SnS = Sit and Spin.  To put in words they are bots that use their drive to power their weapon by turning (spin) in one direction.  Since you cannot drive while spinning, they are call "sit" and spin.

I personally find them extremely boring, both driving them and fighting them.

FBS means Full Body Spinner.

Most of the terms we use can be found here: https://gametechmods.com/RA2wiki/index.php?title=Jargon

As for what Naryar is talking about, it's a special AI that makes the bot translate its motion towards its opponent while spinning at high speed. :D

Nope. Shrederator is a shell spinner... it just spins an outer shell with a weapon motor.

FBS.py, however, uses a "Melty Brain" drive system (just google it to see how it works or try my Feeblemind in NAR AI, that i saw you have)

niiice. get rid of the black long batts and replace them with ants. also, use a BSG burst instead of a  snapper2.
Title: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: roboman2444 on September 28, 2009, 12:13:17 PM
use the blue cb instead of the tiny one if u have space, it wll save u 1 kg.
also the hammers suck dosnt apply to dsl, use a hammer instead of spikes.

a try to build a bot, shaped like steg-o-saw-us
Title: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: cephalopod on September 28, 2009, 02:18:27 PM
*Ignoring the advice above, sorry if I repeat*

1) Blue control boards save weight.
2) The long black batteries suck. The orange ones and the tall black ones tyou get from the same menu are much better
3) Don't use the stock SnapperII in DSL - use a BSG, one of the green bursts, or a Magmotors burst.
4) Use a DSL hammer - you might have enough weight for the ol' 70kg-er if you wanted to.
5) And it's not exactly very heavy. Building to the 800kg weight limit is good, gives it more of a chance against the other 800kg bots.
6) There's a fair bit of empty space that could be minimized.
7) Although it looks great, the pointy wedges on the front could be replaced with more effective wedges on burst motors.

:D
Title: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on September 28, 2009, 02:27:40 PM
I may upload your advice fixed stuff tomorrow :) (may not).

an I wanted to ask you if it is a bad mistake by me if iI use the stock parts together wit the dsl parts. cause sometimes the stock parts were looking better on some bots than the dsl pats.

Title: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: roboman2444 on September 28, 2009, 03:18:49 PM
they are unbalanced.
dsl parts are usually better, that is why u see some dsl bots get 25000 pts per match instead of the 10000 for a good stock bot.
Title: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: somestrangeguy on September 28, 2009, 03:29:30 PM
Because Stock is unbalanced and DSL is balanced.

You can tell Stock parts from DSL parts by that blue borderline in their preview pictures.
And by the fact that ALL DSL parts state HP, AMP/DP.

Taht happens when you post something, Refresh page and its nto there... You just post it again, Or Maybe some lag :P

Nice bot, But theres some empty space... You could just remove the 2 "Spikey" looking wedges in the front & add "Real" Metal hinge/Skirt Hinge wedge...
But that would make the bot less attractive :P

Get 2 PC545 and 2 ant batts on this, a Small JX, more armor, as well as a DSL bar for hammer arm.

And either get Hypno wheels, or get the motors 2 notches higher and use Vlads.

Well all of those that are not replica parts, that are unlocked with the cheatbot2.

Hidden parts are not hidden for some reason if you are not running 1.3 version of the game.

No problem, just makes it easier for people who have slow connections and such.

The robot could definately use some grippiers wheels, like vlad wheels. Also, you have around 80 kg to work with, so I would try to increase the number of weapons, and increase overal defense of the chassis, as well as try to shrink the chassis.

This is all assuming this is a serious robot, and not just a robot for fun.

*sigh*

About the bot, i am surprised that nobody told him not to use these weapons cause they have normals. That is, use something else because the pole spikes do damage only with the tip, and this will reduce the damage you'll get with... say an iron spike. Killalot drill would be a good idea there.

I've never had any luck with torque reaction bots. Though your bots look cute, none of them are really combat-effective.

Anyway, you still get points for Pan Tao's looks (it reminds me of a top hat XD). Also, pole spikes have normals, which means that they only do damage at the tips. Irons are a better alternative, but if you shrink your chassis space you can attach far better weapons.

[Edit] Also, S3 wheels provide as much grip as a Vlad. Use those instead. And yep, shrink the chassis space, too. :D

Dirt Devil 4

It`s not a very good figthing machine but I wantet do do a bot with a bottom armor.
It`s the first in the Dirt Devil series not using a flipper as weapon.
It loves to hang on arena walls -.- :P
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/79891DirtDevil4.JPG)

U.F.O
Based on the idea of Dirt Devil 4 but this time with a full body armor/spinner.
I don`t know if someone has build this before.

if only the top part spins it just means its realistic :-D

that robot however is a shell spinner... most combat robot shows (robot wars and battle bots) did call Sheck spinners, Full body spinners but after such robots like Y-Pout the title of Full Body Spinner was given to them

If you want efficient bottom armor use titanium halfsheets and attach them by the second attachment point that is located in the middle of the sheet.

emtpy space or no empty space its still awesome

its an interesting concept I think could be developed even more.. faster drive perhaps and you could have it drive over the robots causing damage along the way

You'd better get stronger drive and use only, say 7 ant batteries.

Showing the insides would really help a lot. But from what I can see here, using weapon motors for drive is bad (NPCs or Fasts would be very better). And ice picks have normals.

But it still looks pretty cool. :D

TWM3R2s are bad for drive. Not enough tourque.

@ Pwn: insides are there. It`s a 3 in 1 picture.

I would add the npc but if I do so the wheels would face down cause of the attachpoint. I use the icepick for not staying at it`s back.

If it's NPC normal, you don't need to protect it with a ramplate.  Replace the polycarbonate extender with something that has more HP (say 40 cm titanium skirt).

Conversely if it's NPC fast, you might also want to consider dropping the ramplate/polycarbonate extender entirely and put on an E-Tek.

Well I think Delldog had the easier way to the final. but it is very distructive as you can see in the sceenshot. (6 seconds for Tornado Mer. I managed it in 4but there`s no screenshot of it) But there may will be a series 2 and then Delldog may come back as 2nd seed :P

Try to find a battery setup where you can have a smaller T chassis instead of that large E chassis. And your 2-Mags are quite exposed. You a Perm 80 so you can remove one ant and save more weight. Use the remaining weight to change the plastic extenders to skirts for stabilizers. And if you have more free weight, swap the shinies to Vlads.
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Naryar on January 08, 2010, 03:40:22 AM
You might take into account the fact that Perm 80's and 2-Mags have only 500 HP... Might be worthy to use a dual axle Etek rather than two 2-Mags for this (Or Perm 132 but it would kinda ruin the looks).

Also find a more efficient armor setup. I am thinking 40cm Alu skirts right now.

Here is one thing you could try to make it able to turm: Place one motor sideways compared to the other motors inside the chassis, so that when you spin it, it would rotate the bot. I did this in my early days when I noticed that my bot was too slow turning.

It was more for design first. they already replaced by Hypnowheels. The drivemotors will be replaced too. Those are the only ones to fit into the chassis.

some tips for the power of the flipper?
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase

BSG, small JX or even double BSG.
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: JoeBlo on February 05, 2010, 10:07:37 AM
what Armour do we have ?

TWM should fit.

BSG's are better.. as Nary discovered they move faster and are lighter, my LW flipper uses dual BSG and it throws MW's pretty far
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on February 05, 2010, 10:11:39 AM
it`s still default armor. I`ll replace the Mag Bust with a BSG. then I`ll try to fit the drive motors in. what about the batterys I used. Are they enought?

Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Naryar on February 05, 2010, 10:16:09 AM
If you have a BSG and 2WD drive then you need 4 ants, but you can add a fifth one for battery power. And maybe a few weapons for damage.

For drive, TWM3R-wide ant could be a good idea.
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on February 05, 2010, 11:26:59 AM
 I did it so far. The Spike at the very front of the flipper will be removed I think. It`s 500,1 kg anyway...

Anyways, this weapon setup isn't going to help at all since it will block the other robot from going on that flipper. I was thinking either beater bars, or even a damaging replica flipper, notably the not-too-heavy Vlad double forklift.

Yes. Lighter, probably more damaging setup and a weapon rather than a non-damaging extender.

A little less protection though... so it's your choice really.

It looks cool, but these drills aren't going to be very efficient...

DSL wheels aren't the best choice as well.
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: somestrangeguy on March 05, 2010, 03:52:10 PM
Actually DSL wheels state Grippy in their description, so they are prtty good for 18kgs.

Definetly needs some serious chassis shinkage and additional weapons.

Unless thats a replica.

Hypnos are grippier for the same weight, and Vlads are lighter for the same grip.
They aren't a particularly bad choice but there are better choices.

That`s a bot mor for show than for combat. But if I will ever turn it into a combabot I`ll change the wheels to hypnos. Thanks for the advice.

This was my originaly entry for Ribbs IRL tournament. I was trying to add a rollbar on Bitequake.
It lost both of its battles cause of it`s weak flipping power.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/27156Bitequake.jpg)
another shellpinner. I need to get better with them since Impact did not real damage. It was the bot with the fastest driving speed in my showcase tourney.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/83025Impact.jpg)
As you can see it is a lightweight version of Spawn Again. It was the best flipper but it lost cause its flipperpenal fell of twice. The Spawn Again Replica I build for the RWW series 2 will have the same
shape.

Post by: Naryar on May 11, 2010, 10:08:25 AM
Well, put a ragetoon on it of course :P

And better wedges. It's probably too fast to be really good, plus it does not look invertible. Honestly 2WD NPC Fast + hypnos is generally enough for any MW, or just 2WD NPC normal + Techno wheel drive if you really want it to be fast.

And with the spare space, you could allways add a storm burst motor with a couple of spikes on or somethin'...
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Naryar on May 12, 2010, 05:55:23 AM
I wouldn't. Keep it a wammer, not a poker hybrid. It's already hard enough to come up with a good wammer/poker hybrid with Hypno drive but with Techno drive, in no way you can come up with something good.

I even doubt you can really build a good MW wammer with NPC/Techno drive (Devil III failed enough), but a MW wammer/poker hybrid with NPC/Techno drive...

But it`s left and right flipperarm got raised up in the air when I push the forward button. the one in the middle works perfect.

It's the weapons weight distribution, the middle points forward and leans down, the irons lean back.
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on May 13, 2010, 02:17:21 PM
that`s the 3rd modification of the two other arms. the original were the same as the one in the middle but they has the same issue like they have now.

Location of hinge maybe?
Can't you just use one?
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on May 13, 2010, 02:23:43 PM
I could. But I thought it would be more effective with 2 more. I`ll work on the hinge location a bit... tomorrow.
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Naryar on May 14, 2010, 06:34:53 AM
2WD NPC Fast + Technos is faster, less battery consuming and lighter than your drive.

Might also want to put the two left and right hinges farther to the side so that your wedge covers more area.

But pretty good. I like it  :bigsmile:
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on May 14, 2010, 06:42:50 AM
I`ll make it like you said.

It looks like the flails are stacked in the control board as well.


And I'd be surprised if it doesn't Havok with such a tiny chassis.  You have an extra 1.6 kgs; maybe make it a bit bigger.

Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: JoeBlo on August 14, 2010, 04:55:24 AM
say if the robot hit the wall only some of the weapons would hit


making them all even increases damage  ;)
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on August 14, 2010, 05:55:22 AM
I try to fix that as good as I can. Empty space is needed IMO since the weapons are pretty heavy and so the chassis is the balance weight but will try to make a smaller chassis.
@NFX: VQ2 had a quite lot empty space as well ;P
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: NFX on August 14, 2010, 07:07:21 AM
Yes, yes it did. And it won. ;)

You can make the chassis smaller, maybe stick all the batts at the back as a sort of counterweight. VQ3 doesn't have any rear protection, and it still performs alright. The front wheels are in front of the center of gravity of the bot, so it runs on all four wheels.
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on August 14, 2010, 07:43:35 AM
Yeah ,but still ;)
Ramborg can beat VQ2 with about 20000 points more than VQ2 :P

Will work on a Ramborg 2 with a smaller chassis.

Also I`m not sure if T.A.² will be HW.
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase

I tried to AI S.O. but it chrashes my game.
In order:

Named Controlls named them "Forward" "LeftRight" "Fire" and "Srimech"
Added SZ named it "weapon"
Copied it out of the "Teams" folder into "Team27"
Made a new Team in "Team.txt" with 1 bot in it (+ ctrl s)
Made a new Team in "Bindings.py"
Copiepasted the bindings of Narys T.A. entry HMNxyz
Changed the name to "Stick Omega"  (+ ctrl s)
Started Game
Game chrashes
I said "Fu*k"

can someone see if I made a mistake?
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: JoeBlo on October 05, 2010, 10:15:38 AM
most likely teams .txt if you copy and pasted working bindings

did you add in the new team correctly ? (see my tutorial for reference)
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on October 05, 2010, 10:17:04 AM
Actual bindings please so we can see the spaces etc...
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on October 05, 2010, 10:22:56 AM
Seems to be a noobish question since that`s not the first time I AI a bot.

@Joe: Do you got a link? :O
@SM: the bindings are ok I guess because Narys bot worked in Total Annihilation.
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on October 05, 2010, 10:26:52 AM
But you may have missed out a space at the start or used a "shift" instead.

1-check the armor and weight values of the armor you are using, we'll call them X and Y
2-open the bot file
3-search for X 0 Y, obviously replace X and Y by their numerical values
4-If the line is like this :

0 X 0 Y 0 (for plastic)

example from Rabid Grisly Bear,
Code: [Select]
0 3 9 21 52
1 3 10 20 25
2 3 11 24 29
3 3 12 28 33
4 3 13 32 37
5 3 14 36 41
6 3 15 40 45

1- I am a villain, hence do support BFE (not cheating with armor though)
2- Most of you guys are lawful good, hence won't cheat
3- When I'm thinking of it, this tutorial is not for n00bs, you need to be somehow RA2 savwy to get it
4- Most people will forget about this by the time CC4 enters
5- You just have to say that anyone with a non-legal armor will be banned forever
6- Who, apart from me, will be both smart enough and EVIL enough to do this ?

Msybe if the wheels were concealed under the front shell it might look a bit better while moving. But I like this idea, it's like Milly-Ann Bug. =D
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on November 09, 2010, 02:42:07 PM
Milly-ann Bug and Lizzard ;)
I very much like the idea of wheel on the frontshell but the rule of 7 is destroing my dreams :(
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: NFX on November 09, 2010, 02:54:52 PM
No, keep the chassis in the middle one, but put the wheels on the front shell.
 
From the chassis, ME -> Disc -> Axle -> Disc -> Side Panel -> Motor -> Wheel. Exactly seven. =D
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on November 09, 2010, 02:58:23 PM
I can`t cause rule of 7.
I have one multiextender (1) a domedisc (2) a domesheet (3) a flail (4) another domesheet (5) another domedisc (6) and another domesheet (7). the drivemotor would be attached on the last domesheet in the line but this is already the 7th component in the row.
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: NFX on November 09, 2010, 02:59:39 PM
Just eliminate the domesheets, you could attach the axle directly from the domedisc to the domedisc, there'd just be a gap at the part of the domediscs closest to each other.
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on November 09, 2010, 03:00:49 PM
even when I do it like that, the motor would be the 7th component an I couldn`t put the wheel on it.
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: NFX on November 09, 2010, 03:10:21 PM
No......multiextender -> domedisc -> axle -> domedisc -> domeshell -> motor -> wheel, that makes seven components in a row.
Title: Re: Thyrus` Showcase
Post by: G.K. on November 09, 2010, 03:11:21 PM
Technically it should be the rule of 8, as the chassis is a component too.

Make it 6WD :gawe:

I had it 6WD and may do it again. The single bodyparts are hard to controll with 6 w spinning in a different angle. I even had 2wd with angled npc but that was even harder to controll but made it a deadly sns :P

I bfe`d the wheel and ATM it`s using a modified motor with jundgeburst stats. but even with that it`s not as powerfull as it should be. I think I turn back to the original JX and put the whole thing up to the HW class to use it in a Heavyweight thing that will not be a tournament... :P

Who was the on I got a bot from? I know NFX sended me 5 and DSC 2 MWs. GRW sended me a HW and then there was another guy. I think it was Badnik. Nary? You wanted to make something too IIRC?

In total I got about 16 bots. I want to make it a 48 bot ...THING

new "made to fail" realistic designs.

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/48456screenshot_286.jpg)

the one on the left hand side was inspired by the comic in "GTM land" (the one with click FB Stagbeetle and Fish). It was meant to work like an fighting herculesbeetle



the otherone works with torquereaction. while driving forward the "mouth" opens and when it stops it closes. does well in theory but not so good ingame.

I just came here to post my latest IRL bot and to say that I may get my own laptop on monday. also my plans of moving came one step closer.

the bot is nothing special. but it`s a spinner.

edit:

after I almost finished building this bot I added the Killalot claws and looked on the bot again. I thought it looks a bit like Sledge from Borderlands.

Post by: Thyrus on March 04, 2011, 04:14:01 PM
one of them was inspired by piranha. I might upload the concept of it.
the other one was inspired by that:


I will give it a new skin though.

@Nary: I`m not sure what`s the name of the bug is but I`d love to have that backpack :P


I`m affraid the bots that I make for that "not a tournament" thing will look to similar. Also I`d like to ask trov to help me again with the arena I had in mind but I don`t have that much time (and free brain) to do it. I might ask him when my  lap top arrives. But I guess the delivery service lost it.

Ballistae are just oversized crossbows, and more importantly are FLAT weapons ! This is obviously too tall to look like a ballista.

After my bots for the FPX challenge are send here are the prototypes that havn`t made it in my top 4:

the one in the top is a Behemoth inspired scoopflipper

DemonHunter: Obviously inspired by Dominator 2

Revenge in Pain: a bot with the same shape as my Firestorm replica. it has a lowcutting disc at the front and (I`m very proud of this:) the belt does barely touches the extenter = makes it realistic :)

Title: Re: Thyrus DSL Toybox
Post by: Thyrus on May 30, 2011, 06:38:23 AM
I wasn`t thinking about the weapon for ninjutsu. I just had the idea for the wheels. It`s for invertibility even though it will never run on the other side ;)

I`m supprised too. I was looking for an extender with many attachmentpoints so the hexplate came in mind. I didn`t know that you can`t use one side. after some testing this came in mind.

Post by: cephalopod on June 01, 2011, 08:04:59 AM
It'll be a flipper - when are popups ever found in IRL building :P

Anyway, both look sweet, I love the Gravity look of DD.

I have a bunch of new ideas lately
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/46673MudCreature.jpg)

Another unnamed/unskinned robot of pure win:

-2 ants for 2 drivemotors  the weaponmotor
-lightest armor available
-uninvertible
-samuraisword as weapon

I wanted something like toecutter and that`s the result ;)

Edit: I forgot to mention that those spikes are mounted on the drivemotors so the are kind of drills.

crypt is a good idea. As I want to DSL-isize Stockosaurus (the bot that won the votingchallenge against sparkey) I will give that one the dinostyle ;)

well it`s not to bad in battle I think. (for my standarts lol). It`s tactics are trying to get under the other bot and push it around the arena. the beaters are there to stop the other bot from moving over the top and to cause damage. I could`ve added a saw or something...

Top left looks like some kind of crustacean. I reckon if you arched the "spine" a bit more, that would look epic. A good skin to go with it, and that would look amazing. =D

Flat one at the side looks quite interesting, what's it intended to do?

I love the little spines and tails and such you give your robots, it gives them an anthropomorphic feel. As if they are actually living creatures. I reckon it might look better if you used slightly smaller wheels, so they didn't stick out of the top so much, though. But great work otherwise.

sure because humans, and by extension anthropomorphic beings, have little spines and tails.

It makes your bot cooler most of the time, but it's just as often such a huge waste of weight as well.

It's not off topic, I am talking about how the bot. Specifically, how his passion for Starcraft, especially the zerg, seems to have seeped into his building.

About your question, if I calculate correctly it must tip towards it's tail.

But it doesn't contribute in any useful way towards the topic. It gives neither constructive feedback or advice.

I can see the bot performing poorly against faster rammers as they may potential knock it over too easily.

It flipps it self over with every flip but selfrights pretty good:

Does look very good when it self-rights. Quite a natural motion, I feel. I might widen up the rear top edge slightly, so it matches up with the width of the flipper.

Looking very nice indeed. What I might suggest, instead of Long Ramplates (which, as Naryar said, are relatively fail) would be the use of The Judge Side Panels, which would match up with the angle of the flippermakers at the front. I might also swap the ME's for Aluminium extenders, and make them a little bit longer.

Sort of both. You do flipper segment work like that on a few other bots, don't you? Like that Demon Hunter one that was paired with the Dominator 2-style axebot.

I prefer the second one, personally. Aside from the poly extenders at the back, I can't quite work out what they're for.

Do you mean it gets that little triangle along one edge that's messed up? I've had that happen to me sometimes, I'm not certain what causes it. Try saving the skin as a 512x512, and see what happens.

Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: NFX on February 19, 2012, 07:51:21 AM
Doesn't look too bad, I don't think. Rear protection might be a little bit pointless, but maybe keep the spike to stop yourself getting stranded. I'm guessing it's invertible too. Still keeping a little bit of the IRL feel, but should do pretty well in regular combat, as Valid Query 2 did. Internals?
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on February 19, 2012, 07:58:27 AM
to lazy to mak a screenshot but it has 4x npcf + hypnos, 4 ants and bottomprotection - not sure how helpfull that one is tbh.
the weapon is to effective to be IRL I think.
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: NFX on February 19, 2012, 08:03:12 AM
It would definitely fall under the "weapon spam" category for IRL. But it should be reasonably nippy, and reasonably durable as well. Might want to get an extra ant or two, just so it keeps going the whole match.
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on February 19, 2012, 08:06:53 AM
it`s so powerfull - the match doesn`t even least five seconds  :cool:

Post by: NFX on April 15, 2012, 01:34:04 PM
Pretty cool. Rammer has a certain Valid-Query-2-ness to it. =D It would look more fluid if the DSL bars were pointed the other way, with the narrow bit at the back. The flipper, I really like the look of the arm and the things at the back, though it could be better if the front was angled back like a wedge, to match up with the angle of the arm a bit better.

That looks spectacular. I really like the back end for some reason. I also approve of the piston extenders, they're a very nice touch. Not enough flippers have those. I'm sure it'd look great from the front with the flipper down.

Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: NFX on May 09, 2012, 12:35:19 PM
That looks ridiculous, but in a very good way. Reminds me of Raizer Blade a little bit. There are a few small touches that I think would make it even better, though. For instance, putting gap decals on the bot where the wheels pass through the chassis at the top, and turning the rearmost Spike Strips 180 degrees, so they're going in the same direction as the ones on the front wedge. I assume the rear flipper segment stuff is for self-righting, but it looks a bit ungainly. What I might do is have it more sharply angled, so it joins up with the back of the chassis, and appear more sturdy. Should still self-right effectively.

Is that why you have the alu extenders sticking out like that, so the Apollyon corner parts match up with the main wedge? Or does it do that normaly, I forget. Why are the sideways extenders there on the flipper?

the mainwedge has a pretty strange AP that`s why they are there... or at least one of them. the other one is for symetry reasons.. ;)

of corse it' unstable cause the front is very heavy. I try to find a way to stop it from tiping over as soon as the disc starts spinning. and I may use the chassis for an other bot with an flipper or hammer

Is that AGOD symmetrical? It might not prove to be too much of a problem if it is. Otherwise, try reattaching a few times, and if that doesn't work export it, import it to another game and try again there.

Unfortunately there isn't a technique to get rid of AGOD that works for everybody.

Is that AGOD symmetrical? It might not prove to be too much of a problem if it is. Otherwise, try reattaching a few times, and if that doesn't work export it, import it to another game and try again there.
They are symetrical. Do you mean import in another team or another copie of RA2?


Metal hinge wedges ?

Has Thyrus finally converted itself to standard building ?


Thyrus will enter Total Annihilation with a serious bot this time... And he`s going to clone a bot of the oh so mighty nararararararararyararar

You can try both to see if either works :P

You should actually test the wedges before you try to remove AGOD because sometimes AGOD can go under the floor and give you better wedges

Should be okay, but I'd widen the wedge setup as you might be easy to flank like that.

Weight and armour?

Plow on the back is (IMO) weight wasted.
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on August 12, 2012, 04:03:02 PM
723,0 Kg, Steel 5  but it will be rebuildet anyway. The plow in the back is for the rumbles to prevent damage to the kinda exposed nps
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: NFX on August 12, 2012, 04:04:45 PM
Looks like a good starting point to me. Plow on the back is definitely pointless, and the Tite sheet on top could probably be swapped for something better, perhaps more weaponry, or more frontal defenses. It's a bit narrow at the moment, I'd try to widen the wedges if you can, and make it wider in general. It'll be harder for opponents to flank you and HS to hit your sides that way.

I took the basic design of your hope no more and tried to build something like it. as this is only at 723 I still have weight for armor left. The name is also something like a pun :P

His weapons probably won't get hit where they are and standard popups tend to do a bit more damage.

usually when a bot climbs a regular popup, the weapons fire before the chassis is directly perpendicular with the razors, which is dangerous if you fight SnSes and SSes.On true popups that doesn't happen because when the opponent climbs the wedge the razors are already perpendicular to the opponents chassis.(true story while fighting DisEmboweLment and Infection 4 with Midnight Ideology))

Vorcha is pretty awesome.  Sonic... I dunno, it looks off for some reason.  I think the wheel guards are too far away and make it look more spread out than it needs to be.  The bot might look a bit better if those were closer to the wheels.

Good work!

Post by: AlexGRFan97 on April 07, 2013, 08:29:15 AM
Eye Patcher's absolutely incredible IMHO. But really, this is why we need more body panel-esque parts in the finished DSL3. It just sort of looks bare with just extenders.

hmmm i dont like the CF extender on the flame chopper clone

Post by: Thyrus on April 08, 2013, 05:57:10 AM
removed it.

also here is my try at spin bonker.
it`s smaller, has a way better weapon motor and is smaller (+ better weaponmotor)

Wanted to build a bot with that wedge. kept on building and in the end it looked like B2 from Lego Robot Wars. B2 is now also the nem of this one

I like it, reminds me of Disc-O-Inferno from Robot Wars Extreme 1 without the disc.

I like the idea for the flipper. Tried a version without the smaller arm? Try to get the big one flipping?

No. It's a photoshop trick. Still looks like a good bot.

Love the look of it, Thy  :gawe:


Ive tried a few times in the past to get transparent skins to work, stumbled over another idea the other day too


only trouble is, beyond the botlab, it will just be a few particular components floating in a transparent blob since there is no baseplate/ texture as such during battles
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on September 02, 2013, 09:45:29 AM
Thanks. so the only way to make it good looking would be using components as baseplate then?
do you have some kind of picture or video of it? I`m curious how it looks  :gawe:
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: JoeBlo on September 02, 2013, 09:58:33 AM
I only have the idea on how to do it.. my last attempt crashed the game when you loaded a match lol


but basically in a match the chassis just becomes a shaped component so there is no textures or anything on the inside, only your skin and since most baseplate components arnt visible, id imagine the results wouldnt be like your robot above :P

That reminds me of a robot, but I can't put my finger on it. It's either because I'm busy playing Poker Night, or I'd lose a finger. Nice one, though!

yeah it`s another upgrade of my battlebot heavyweight. I fixed the issue called "The annoying Predator Problem" aka I moved the rear wheel further out. also I modified the weapon and changed the srimech a bit. aand I got rid of the stupid overweight extender that wights 10 kg and allows you to build in 6 directions.

I imagine, from the look of the wheels underneath, that it was designed (all that time ago, I still remember seeing Sphere and Atilla for the first time hah) to tilt forward and be a wedge from that angle, tilting the back up.

Its hard to see the weapons but I think I see an axe and a flipper, what are the actual weapons?
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on May 07, 2014, 11:46:27 AM
this axe is just for trapping opponents to get time for the spinners to do damage
and the "flipper" is the srimech

Edit:
This shows the spinners from a better angle

Post by: Badnik96 on May 07, 2014, 12:51:26 PM
yes it does, but IRL a slot could be cut through the plate. You can see Thyrus tried to to that with his skin but they're off by a bit.

The gut ripping discs seem kinda cheap, other than that it's pretty cool.

actually its not off. the skin is just too dark to see the small ones besides the slots for the srimech

and for the "cheap disc" HW Ryu had the exact same weaponsetup and no one cared so I`m keeping it :P

It's a bit more complicated than that... you need to copy and paste the texture, change the texture count to 2, and then change MAP_DIFFUSE to MAP_OPACITY in the second texture.  So it will look something like this when done.

Code: [Select]
*MATERIAL

*MATERIAL_REF_NO 0
*MATERIAL_NAME your mom.
*MATERIAL_CLASS Standard
*MATERIAL_AMBIENT 0xFFFFFF
*MATERIAL_DIFFUSE 0xFFFFFF

*MATERIAL_SHINESTRENGTH 0
*MATERIAL_TRANSPARENCY
*MATERIAL_WIRESIZE 1
*MATERIAL_SHADING Blinn
*MATERIAL_XP_FALLOFF 0
*MATERIAL_SELFILLUM 0
*MATERIAL_FALLOFF In
*MATERIAL_XP_TYPE Filter
*TEXTURE_LIST
{
*TEXTURE_COUNT 2
*TEXTURE
{
*MAP_NAME Map #1
*MAP_CLASS Bitmap
*BITMAP snowflake4.tga
*MAP_AMOUNT 1
*MAP_DIFFUSE
*MAP_TYPE Screen
*UVW_U_OFFSET 0
*UVW_V_OFFSET 0
*UVW_U_TILING 1
*UVW_V_TILING 1
*UVW_ANGLE 0
*UVW_BLUR 1
*UVW_BLUR_OFFSET 0
*UVW_NOISE_AMT 1
*UVW_NOISE_SIZE 1
*UVW_NOISE_LEVEL 1
*UVW_NOISE_PHASE 0
*BITMAP_FILTER Pyramidal
*BITMAP_MAP_CHANNEL 1
}
*TEXTURE

*MAP_NAME Map #2
*MAP_CLASS Bitmap
*BITMAP snowflake4.tga

The only issue I have about this bot is the exposed dual mags. Maybe the exposed bits of NPC but that's just being difficult. Fix that and it will be cooler.

also dual drive mags ? you using NAR AI- oh right click took my idea for DSL3

Indeedy, this does look like the sex. Although personally, I'd have put some stronger drive motors at the back, and have a sawblade coming out of the front. But still, that exoskeleton is freakin' amazing.

Just the spinner.

Try rebuilding the spinner... differently. I would assume making your spinner spin before every razor placed would increase AGOD ? but i'm not sure.

Maybe there is a method to solve agod. I know I tried searching for one back then, i should do more experiments...

That's the biggest issue I have with Vertical Spinners. It's very easy to have it plague with AGOD if you aren't careful.

In terms of help, maybe try to have the weapons attached first and in a way so that you don't have to spin the motor to adjust the weapons. If that doesn't work, then all I can say is hope you get lucky tinkering with it, because it's up to random chance if you want it to work.
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase

Also I took the DSL 2 Multiextender and antweight batts and put them into my DSL3 folder and I will keep it that way cause both makes building much easier and fun and makes DSL 3 less limited. I also tried to put the Kev plate into it but it doesn`t show up.

I love those tilted wheels, though.
I think it would look less messy if you used discs as wheel guards instead of those tri-bars. Tilted wheels would allow you to attach discs with slightly bigger radius without messing with driving.

No matter what I do I'm always jumped on for no reason.

what massimov said, basically.

you are perfectly allowed your opinion, (I didn't deleted your post) simply try to make your posts less confrontational.

You having a history of posting "no I don't like that bot, period" (or something similar" in showcases. Often against the general consensus.

So we think you're just posting that to be edgy. Maybe it's true, maybe it's false, maybe we're wrong and you're right, or the opposite.

if you post a negative opinion then explain why your opinion is negative. So people can at least understand and not be frustrated when other people don't like this bot. if you post a negative opinion, it means there is a flaw on the bot : explain that flaw.

(And by the way it goes exactly the same with positive opinions. *looks at jaydee*)

How? I can't say that I don't like it because "Hey how come you never like anything?"

It's a valid question. Besides, you pretty much DID said that you don't like it.

I can't say how it looks messy or how to improve it because "Hey since when did you think you could build?"

If your advice is sound then you will normally not be told that. If your advice is poor, you shouldn't give advice.

If your advice is sound and people whack you for giving good advice then they are idiots and need to shut up.

And yes it DOES look a bit messy. So you are right. Though I don't believe it's really a flaw here.

No matter what I do I'm always jumped on for no reason.

No need to make yourself look like the victim here.

Plus - shut the heck up Wylde. You're being a dick, again, and spoiling the fun for pretty much everyone.

Don't flame/post flamebait in showcases or you will find me in your way.
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Shield on March 31, 2015, 05:45:08 AM
I can see why Wylde doesn't like it, everyone is entitled to their own opinion after all. A disc in place of the tribals would look better. Besides that, I like it. Just like I like all your other bots.

I believe he's talking about you posting on pretty much every showcase that you like their bot without any specific feedback. You're basically the opposite of Kurt except you post more often. What he's trying to say is if you like a bot, tell the builder why you like it. It helps them as a builder to improve more.

Yup, but bumping showcases makes people think the OP posted in them, and it wasn't the case.

Hence why bumps are A-OK unless they are pointless.

That's an incredible build! I suppose the rule of 7 was a real pain while building it :P

The two chassis bars or axles that are at an angle are making me cringe, though. They just feel... displaced

I was thinking it would look better if the angled axles were removed but with the addition of the burst motor protection, it gives purpose to stay there again. In other words: very nice :bigsmile:

So here it is. Bot of the month for May 2016. It was build right after the botm thread for may was up and took a few hours to build. Especally those wheelsguards. Locating the bmp files for reskinning also took more time that it should have.

The wedges close to the spikes are part of the Chassis. The ones on the puter side are components.

The Storm piston is part of the front-hinged burst motor. It's visually part of the model, but doesn't work on that principle.

I'm gonna be brutally honest: Not a huge fan of it when compared to the first one.  I mean, it's still a great bot, but the whole srimech thing looks like it's just slapped on and just feels out of place in general.  Maybe make it look like it's actually attached to the chassis?

So I wanted to create a chassis based on ShockWave of the 2016 RW season.

It turned out so heavy that I hade less than 100 kg for a weapon left so I tried different stuff and nothing worked for me. then I got bored and just put some teeth on it.

It was meant to be some sort of Complete Control styled bot with servos but there was no space for them so I went with bursts.
There are quite a few flaws with this design as the opponent has to go up all the way on the wedge.
It does a decent amount of damage or what it is. This could have been a potential entry for GTM:RW if I had build it a month earlier :)

damn that's cool. I wonder about the position of the burst axle though. Probably would be better further back with the whole arm moving up. It has a unique look and feel to it though, so keep it as is.

God damn, 3 1/2 years ago already?  Man I'm feel old, and yet, I don't.

Anyway, nice bot.  The flipper mechanism is interesting.  How good as it from self-righting?  If it gets caught on it's face, it might be screwed from my observations.

Disagree. That looks cooler in my opinion, because it looks like it can do something, and it does feel more like Zeus from RW, which was a cool bot.

Just because something is unique, it doesn't make it better than anything else that isn't. Personally, I prefer the second version.
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Merrick on February 26, 2017, 12:36:34 PM
I think they're both great. Maybe it's not as unique as before, but the second 'bot is still a top tier, solid build. As always.

I'm not too fond of the red color. I may change it to orange or something. Didn't want to make it blue for reasons... maybe I add some black highlights on the white skin.

It does lifts other robots up but it doesn't toss them around. Imagine a very impractical Panick Attack...

black and blue one is killer, i also dig the orange and black one aside from the NPCs sticking out and the white/red/blue one. flipper on white and green one is kinda funky and the hinge from the storm burst kills the look of the purple and yellow one which sucks since there isnt much you can do about that.

this is version 2 of this bot. the first one had the spinningmotors mounted on the axle wedge but that ended up in massive AGOD issues.

Sadly the forks sometimes lift up other opponents which results in the extenders passing through the motors.

Again yeh this looks really clean. One thing I'd say is that the wedges could look a little better if you had a second pair slightly closer to the sides of your bot. can't remember how much that weighs anymore cus i don't play this game but I think it'd make it look slightly neater and also make it less flankable.

I feel like it would be a lot cooler if you had the "chassis" sloping down either side of the flipper, rather than it just sticking out of the front.
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on June 22, 2017, 05:30:54 AM
I don't quite know how you mean that. do you have a drawing?

Edit: never mind I figured it out
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Badger on June 22, 2017, 07:16:34 AM
So the chassis without the flipper arm looks like /[  ] instead of just [  ] from the side. On an iPhone atm so I can't draw for you.

Not sure if I'm a fan of the vertical flaps at the front, looks very cool otherwise. What would be dope is if you made those vertical flaps into little front-facing flippers. I understand how this would be impractical, though.

Post by: Thyrus on June 29, 2017, 02:05:25 PM
I can see why you don't like them. they are on a 10 dergee angle but I could increase that. having them fronthinged panels would be hard to pull off though

also that showcase is still sex. i like the two BW flippers. They're so... clean.

The bot on top isn't that great. I just liked the way the eyes turned out on that one.

The second one was a bot that was planned as a 3 tire bot (though it's actually 4 wheels) but also as a test to see how the new colors look like. it's turningspeed is terrible and I'm not too fond of the color mixture but the colors themself look really nice. good job dsc!

So my laptop broke. I lost many of the bots I've build including an unshown supernova clone. Good thing is that I got a new lapto. it's a used one but better than nothing. It runs RA2. While I was unable to build bots I watched some robo games highlights from the past years and I saw Last Rites and some smaller and simillar bots. Also I saw a bot that was of the same design but with a disc. I was thinkin to myself: why have the disc at the front if you could modify your bot to be a ringspinner? That's what this bot is suposed to be. The regular version is a tombclone. the other version is using the weaponmotor to spinn the ring around the chassis while the orange parts at the back are holding the ring in place.

This is not meant to be entered into a tournament but more of a concept bot

This version doesn't look as clean as the original but I prefer this over the other. It't a complete rebuild and it uses stronger flippermotors. I really like the way the lower backpart turned out.

Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on February 22, 2018, 04:54:08 PM
it's the weight of the smallest line acuator with about 15 to 20 kg worth of extenders (maybe... idk) and a big co2 bottle. So I'd say about 800 kg
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: RedAce on February 22, 2018, 06:14:38 PM
That's adorable.  I do question the stability at points, especially if the axes are firing 180 degrees,  I feel this could look less derpy or wonky if it had a wedge of some sorts.  Though that might ruin the design and weight looks tight enough as is.

Still a great bot though.

I think they would benefit a lot from higher res skins, 1024x1024 maybe. Very neat build though, good work. I wonder if they're actually capable of getting under bots with low ground clearances like flippers though

Post by: Thyrus on March 19, 2018, 09:47:27 AM
Booohh!
it's the same shellspinner over and over again!

Yesss I know but this one went back to the 6mag motor instead of the way too powerfull dualmag that caused Tilted to be off its feet way too long in battles. it also uses the teeth setup that I first experimented with on Tilted Spec 2:
-     -
   -  -
-  -

The second bot is a grabber that uses Tilt's chassis

Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Badger on March 19, 2018, 09:50:34 AM
Fun fact, the 6mag actually has a higher top speed than the dual perm

I still think that it's a bit weapon-spammy and tryhard for IRL, but i guess I'm hardly one to talk.
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on March 19, 2018, 09:54:49 AM
I always get the weapon spam thing. I tried to tone it down but compating it to performances of other bots it sucked. so **** it and back to it. until a host complains about it and gives me a good reason to change it.

agree with badger. new wedge looks very nice but i kinda like the old tail a little better. changing the orange triangles to white i think would help a lot too
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on April 18, 2018, 11:21:26 PM
You mean the static one?
I agree that the one from the first one looks better. In this version the weapon arm was resting on the tail. I had to change the starting position because I experienced many havoc issues after changing the swing radius (even to 3.1)
I will see what I can do about it

I think I'd like it more with a wider wedge as it currently looks a bit thin. Maybe supplement that with a polycarb top plate

Not a huge fan of the saws I feel like you could substitute for something a bit more like witch doctor/hypershock weapon.
the purple flipper is clean which is nice

How well does the extra drive help it? Loving the side panels, the triangle plate layering looks so nice my dude.

Awesome. Also, is that styled after Stinger (the RW one) and Gabriel or not? And are the teeth just for aesthetics?

The wheels on this thing are gorgeous. Is it 2 pussycat wheels + a drum on the motor axle I'm guessing?. Definitely gonna have to steal that one.

The bot is lovely too. Super full of character just like most of your builds Thy  :heart_smiley:

I mean, the hubs on those wheels DO look pretty cool as weapons... would probably look better as a shell spinner than a ring spinner though.

Inspired by Colsonbot?

This is awesome, it looks like Kraken but with saws.  And two wedges.

It was actually inspired by The Ant Is Neigh because it performed quite well :)

And yeah it's a mix of Kracken and SawBlaze

Is there a possibility of adjusting the flat motor position, cuz they kinda look odd clipping into the drum like that.
Title: Re: Thyrus`Showcase
Post by: Thyrus on September 29, 2018, 03:23:15 PM
I know they look a bit weird but I see them as weapon belts which makes it ok for me at least

The new version of Infest looks awesome. I also think it's going to be more effective that it now has a front hinged flipper rather than two saws like before
