Armor Addon
« on: July 14, 2008, 03:00:52 PM »
THIS IS FOR ZANA DSL (50%)

UPDATES:
taking out gooses armors because i think that no one realy uses some of them and all of these armors are better
also i will ask acams about his dsl2 armors or im just going to have to keep them in there and take the punshiment...

Ok so i am making a armor addon for robotarena2
and i want to make a temporary team or perm if you want
for it so i can finish it
i hope some one can help...
so far i need the following:

textures
&
previews

so far i want it to work for example like plastic armor it puts a texture onto the bot i want to do that and i need previews for the armors so these are the openings

textures designers
empty

cfz and codding:
Zana

Beta testing:

Idea people:
every one who joins in on making
this will be under this...

so if you want to help

just ask if you can and i will say yes enless there is 2 many people...

PROGRESS:
cfz and coding: 99.99% (the 0.01% is we need premission from acams for his armors also because we need it to addon to dsl2)
textures: 0%
beta testing: 0.01% (i tested it with my textures and the textures dident work and the previews did look like anything)

for current cfz and texture designers and beta testers
read this:

CFZ DESIGNERS:
We need premission from acams if we can use the armors
he made for the dsl2 because i want this to be an addon to the dsl2 and we need to add the default ra2 armors for people who dont have dsl2
--------------------------------
BETA TESTERS:

no work this moment but if you are good coding or textureing you can also work there :mrgreen:

--------------------------------
TEXTURE DESIGNERS:
we need the following previews and textures(and some of these may be rediculus but its for fun so dont mess with me some of them are for real)(all of these are textures and previews example bamboo armor is bamboo armor preview and texture)

bamboo armor
dragon scale armor
treebark armor
rubber armor
slate armor
turtle shell armor
coconutshell armor
marble armor
lucite armor(i want this to be see thru not invisa)

The only immediate problems that I can see are:
-that if you have both DSL and stock armors, people will choose the DSL armors because they have more hitpoints for less weight
-partially transparent armor won't work because you have to edit the .bot file to do this (and even then I don't think you can make it partially transparent but I'm not 100% positive)
-I don't think you can make your own reflection map for custom armor so sparkling won't work
-there is currently no way to use the reflective property of shiny hubs without editing the .bot file

Anyways, good luck and if you have any questions feel free to ask.

im just adding stock because maybe the person doesnt have dsl2 and they have normal ai and everything so im just think for the other people so it doesnt crash the game when they play agienst ai's...

and i realy dont care about the see thru just i need it to be like the plexiglass texture for the plexiglass for one of those bots on the ai for dsl2 there is one plexiglass look under extras after putting in cheatbot2...

i could try to work on .dll or python file or cfz that will fix the reflection map problem i know alot of stuff about adding .dll and not much about python and i know medium ammount on cfz

You can make custom armor, but if it's not plastic, aluminum, titanium, or steel, you can't make it apply a texture to your bot.  That information is in the exe.  If it was possible to make different types of armor that applied new default textures, you can bet there would be Carbon Fiber/Garolite and Wood armor in DSL.

Good luck on this venture, Zana. Venko says he's gained access into the exe. But I think it's at the binary level. Whenever he gets back from school work, we'll see...
Input is appreciated. :)

Well that sucks I was hoping one of them was like trytaneim the one armoer that can sand up to my lazer bots and the dragon armoer sounded nice but he's not here crud. how can you make or edit armor already I search and nothing try some of the downloads and they don't work.

I haven't played around with armors but quoting from this thread

Youcan make custom armor, but if it\'s not plastic, aluminum, titanium, orsteel, you can\'t make it apply a texture to your bot.  Thatinformation is in the exe.

you can edit armors however... decompiling RA2.cfz and edit the armor definitions or BFE is another option which also wont mess up your games armors
