Hey, got a problem (Before anyone starts flaming, I bought this game so many years ago, So i lost the disc and downloaded it just once :) ) RA2, Crashes on startup, Like, The second i click it and the screen goes to that black loading screen, It crashes, And i really love this game... Please help me :)
Btw, My apperance.gib is 20.9 KB, So.... Yeah, I'm in dire need for help, I can even launch it to see what version it is... D: :vista:
-
Did you install any mods recently? Where did you download it?
-
Holy crap that was fast, I downloaded it from http://appsbay.net/?p=6378 So it comes with DSL 2.0
So.. yeah.
-
im going to guess corrupted version then
here try downloading this copy of DSL
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=1LTTSSJ4
(sage is getting a lot of plugs today :D)
and for plain old RA2 with no mods
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=O5CF8Z0F
(that one is thanks to S32)
-
Fastest and best tech support ever, I award you a medal, And thanks so much, I've been looking for it, I'll download this, And report how it work, Thanks again :heart_smiley: :heart_smiley:
-
NP buddy, anytime.... make sure you hang around an enjoy yourself, showcases offer big amounts of suggestions and tournaments are always great too ;)
-
Apparently S-32's didn't work, so here's a clean stock (courtesy of Sage): http://raw.gametechmods.com/Shhhh/Robot%20Arena%202.rar
-
I'm at 90 % now so.. This version that "JoeBlo" Will crash? D:
-
Only the second one. The DSL one should be fine.
-
its worth a try as I use that one of S32's all the time ?
-
Oh ok, I remember reading that it crashed somewhere.
-
It did crash. :( DLing G.K. 's Version. I'm on XP pro SP3, Incase that would help.
-
Question.. If both files (JoeBlo's And Sages) Are both 89.0 MB exactly, Then.. What exactly doesn't crash them?
-
changes within the program files (we do it a lot) or corruption
also what error message are you getting ?
-
Well, I deleted it, 90% again so, I'll tell you when it's done in about 2 minutes.
-
Ok.
-
YESSS G.K I LOVE YOU!! If only you were... Like me... XD But it's running now, I'll play with the stuff to see if it crashes, Gaah, So lovely, So DSL in a few. =3
-
Weird, I just downloaded that S32s version and it worked fine, the funny thing is that the URL of S32s link is the same as the one I uploaded.
-
So, Screwed around with a bot, And i'm back from 5 epic battles, So.. Can anyone teach me on DSL? =3
-
Take screenshots and make a showcase. That is the easiest way.
-
Hmm? Sorry i didn't understand that? Take screenshots of what and do what with said frozen pixels? :)
-
Take screenshots of your bots, showing the weight and insides, convert them to something other than .bmp’s, and post them in ‘kcdowdy’s DSL Showcase’
-
Oh your talking about showing them off, I'm talking about installing DSL (That was funny) So yes, Think you can help? :)
Btw, I just edited the C.R.U.S.H Bot and deleted that one bot on rookies that i never use, Ever. And made my own experimental bot, Hope that still counts as "Clean"
-
I don't entirely get what you're trying to do.
-
Well, Alot of people have some mod on Robot arena 2, Called.. err.. DSL-TC 2.0 Or something, I was wondering if i could install it, Bots with that many parts looks very interesting.
-
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=1LTTSSJ4 Should work
-
This forum gets a perma place in my bookmarks, Fastest techsupport ever. Thanks so much G.K, JoeBlo :)
Edit: Gonna play for a hour while it downloads.

Between us, we cover every day, 24/7. :P
-
2 minute warning before it's complete... More like 1:45 But.. Anyway, How exactly do you install it or, Do you know a thread to point me in the right direction?
-
You just need to unrar it.
-
Quick question, Do i just drag the contents of DSL 2.1 into my robot arena ? And overwrite all?
And what is the patch?
-
no, keep it as a sperate game. Ignore the patch, and just run the exectuable.
-
Phew, I was at the overwrite all screen, Thankfully, I canceled out, Thankiess =3
-
Also its always good to keep 1 completly clean stock version and make copies of it if you add/change something.
-

Totally agree! Please keep one version of your game completely stock and un-modded. That way you have a clean version to lean on and copy if things get screwed up. Always remember to save your bots and back them up somewhere often.

I seriously laughed at that... because it is true. :P
-
On the download page for DSL bots (Because i honestly have trouble building :) ) What does this mean "(You will also need DSL components) (https://gametechmods.com/forums/../Robot_Arena2/bots/DSL_v2.0_AI_bots.zip)"
-
It's fine if you just out them in DSL. You would need the DSL components if you were adding them to stock.
I've just had 2 power cuts!

Been having them all day, the world is going to end, We are doomed, Basicly, Grab a gun, And go out rambo style. :gunz: :gunz: :beer:
