Hmm, this is nice. Editing arenas is as easy as re-skinning a robot:

[J]

Took a break from RA1 -> Played TF2 + goofed off some more -> came back -> Ronald McDonald is now all over the arena walls.
What do:

But seriously, I just felt like "edited" some of the game's text files to try and play around the possibility of transparent walls. And what do you know? It actually works.

[Philippa]

Damn... It's all in Russian.

[Jonzu95]

How can that be? :o

[J]

...The download from Awesome's sig is in Russian?
*Glad I held onto my game disk*

[Gropaga]

Where I can get 1.3 update for awsumsauce's sig?(i use win7)

[Mr. AS]

Damn... It's all in Russian.

i hope you didnt copy anything from the (rus) folder

[Philippa]

Damn... It's all in Russian.

i hope you didnt copy anything from the (rus) folder

._. Hurr durr...

I re-downloaded. I couldn't see it first time. Cheers AS

[J]

Considering I made Ronald McDonald walls, why not add a burger bot:

What I should do next, is re-skin one of the arenas into a McDonalds play-place, or a ball pit. Whichever comes first.

[Naryar]

heheheh this is pretty awesome.

Besides, RA1 was better than RA2 in a few domains.

[J]

So I decided to turn the first arena into Green Hill Zone:

....Might have to fix the walls slightly.

[J]

Another fully-skinned Bot:

Not sure what to make of it, really.
I just wanted something that looked like it was covered in sludge, so I got a little creative with the purple.

Oh, and I fixed up the walls in Green Hill a bit more:

Odd thing about Red Giant, is he actually has a file for a custom-tread, yet, uses wheels.
(Lol@more un-used stuff)

[Sparkey98]

how do i custom paint jarbs

watdo

[Mr. AS]

now does reskinning them replace the original paintjob or can you custom skin each thing without effecting the rest of your bots

[J]

Picture is pretty self-explanatory on how you skin your bots:

Throw your custom skin in the Custom folder.
Start up RA1.
Build your bot.
Click the part you want to skin.
Click the "? Info" button to the right of it.
Click the little folder icon on said part. RA1 NEEDS TO BE UP TO DATE, PATCH WISE, FOR THIS TO APPEAR.
You will get a window like the one shown above.
In the top box, that is the part's existing skin. The 'Resort to Default' button resets it.
Click the line of text you want in the above box, click the one you want to replace it with in the bottom window, then click 'Apply'.
Click Ok, or whatever you do to get back to viewing your bot.
Bot should have the skin you made.

Pro-Tip: Import the skin you want into something like Photoshop, and use that as a template, so you can get the proportions right.
File needs to be either a .bmp or a .tga.
If you want a see-through bot, ask me about it, and I will tell you.

Also, I was bored and felt like making this:

[J]

Friggin' typos.
And yea, I meant RA1.
If you have all the patches installed n' junk, it gives you access to the Custom Folder.

[J]

Felt like doing another Tron/Wire-frame bot:


Wireframe Chainsaws seem awesome. Might do those next.

[J]

Continuing with this weird Tron concept, I decided to give Tetra(Thats what I'm currently naming it) a sawblade:

Chainsaw didn't exactly work out, as the transparency on it kept becoming backwards, despite the fact its the exact same text file as the rest of the bot :/
But ehh, what can you do...

Thing the next part I'll add, might be that radar dish.
