DSL v2.0 Glitches And Errors - Post them here!!
« on: August 27, 2006, 11:47:20 PM »
Okay guys, if you find any glitches or errors, I'm sure the Beetle bros. would like to know about them.  I've had the game for a day or two now, and have caught two errors/glitches so far myself ...

Error/Glitch # 1: El Diablo will not load onto the game - instead, he crashes the game.  (El Diablo, btw, is Bot5.bot on Team Black Storm, Team4 in the AI folder.  Not like I was looking or anything ...)  I've tried an exhibition match, pulling the robot out of the AI folder and putting it Robot Designs, and even tried using the El Diablo from DSL v1.2 - all crash the game.  So far, this is the ONLY robot to do so ...
EDIT: Reinstalled the entire game, layered it as follows: RA2 1.0, RA2v1.2 patch, DSLv1.0, DSLv1.2 patch, DSLv2.0.  Works fine now ...

Error/Glitch # 2: Rookies Team Sting Ray 2 vs. Red Zone Team Red Alert in the Cave Arena Exhibition match.  Long story short: After a quick batttle, Red Alert pushes me off the cliff into the death pit, and follows me in.  Who wins?  (Trick question!)
Answer: I do, because the death pit in the Cave Arena is no longer an "instant death"!  Even though your robot is apparently "impaled" by the spikes, you can still drive it around!  And I DO have picture to prove this, if needed .....
EDIT: I copied the cave arena over from my DSLv1.2 install, and it works fine.  Now it's back to an "instant death" pit.

EDIT: Error/Glitch # 3: Elevator on Space Station was not working.  It would rise slightly, then drop with a crunch, and would continue doing so for the length of the game, stranding me on the bottom floor.  Copied arena from DSLv1.2 install to replace it, and it works fine.

When dragging the controls into onto the controler there are event pics shown.  Nothing big tho.

Try reloading the game, guys - try doing it the way I did.  Btw, if you've built any robots already, move the Robot Designs folder BEFORE you do the reinstall, otherwie you'll lose them.

When I was beta testing I told that event thing when dragging switch and if you alt tab out of the game and CLICK the game on taskbar, the game crashes. If you use alt tab again the game won't crash but all the wheels and motors are now loose and you have to place parts right on the right pixel so they would be attachable.
I was Da beta tester Da da dada DA, Da. And that felt good.  :mrgreen:
