Fast'N'Furious and Hope no More 4 ?

TriTon · « **Reply #82 on:** December 08, 2009, 07:42:33 AM »

No. Basically it's HNM 3.2, but mine has a slightly bigger chassis, i have small wedges instead of skirts, and there are 2 Mag snappers and 1 small JX Burst.

More random shots

E=mc2 fails anyway.

Time to show Blitzkrieg

5mm Titanium
12 razors(2 for when bot is going up the wedge, the rest to finish the job)

Try to widen the wedges.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #86 on:** December 09, 2009, 06:35:37 PM »

hmm those front extenders seem a little exposed also

are the Mag snappers holding the sheets on the front ?

Seperated wedges = easier for bots to get under = more losses = bad bot

Not necessarily. Anything sucks if you don't put extra time to tweak it. But I'm confused on how you attached your weapons. Take off one of the tite sheets so we can see it better. :D

Close wedges = Pretty much single wedge = less area covered = easier for bots to get under = more losses = bad bot :D

if your wedges are good robots wont get under them regardless, the only time wide wedges are bad is if they are really short for then a single long wedge can get under it.

My team for NAR AI

From what I can see here you can still lower the chassis of the LW and the BW. :D

TriTon · « **Reply #93 on:** July 09, 2010, 03:19:51 PM »

I haven't built ANYTHING in months...

10 razors, 4 ants and BSG's. 2 NPCF's, 2 TWM3R's 2 battlepacks, and 2 orange batts.

Armor is 5mm Titanium

It's good on a lot of things, but lacks bottom armor and power(hits usually go no more that 1000 points)

Upgrade the very front polycarb extenders, to flipper parts, you have weight

TriTon · « **Reply #95 on:** February 20, 2011, 02:54:02 PM »

Epic bump.

I think I should take another crack at building. I built this in 123AI.

Currently unfinished & unnamed popup. 7 ants, 8 razors, 4 half sheets underneath. Some ~~clone of~~ inspiration from Beautiful Oblivion. Still don't know what to do with remaining 195 kg.

BTW, I read somewhere here(forgot where) and it said something called hinge armor, and I don't know what that is. Can someone give me an explanation of it?

MassimoV · « **Reply #96 on:** February 20, 2011, 02:57:09 PM »

Hey, your back. Underweight and you might want some front armor prtection. Good job though.

ty4er · « **Reply #97 on:** February 20, 2011, 03:00:16 PM »

Needs more ants, is it a true pop-up?
I think what you mean by hinge armour is Narmour which uses the collision mesh of teh skirt hinge for armour...
I think i'll let others expand on this
Looks good for an unfinished bot

Oh and what armour?

Thanks for explanation. Armor is Titanium 3.

Look at the collision mesh of a skirt hinge (using F12), it is much larger than it should be.
As skirt hinge components are attatched to the baseplate, they are incincible, thus giving you invincible armour
Its just like using castor armour in stock

Some members (including me), see this as cheap and cheaty however, JoeBloeven remade the collision mesh preventing it
