Title: CCAI Release & Competition

Click Here To Download CCAI 1.0 (http://filefactory.com/file/ah1a2a0/n/CC_AI_Pack_exe)

it is recommended that you apply this to a new dsl 2.1

patch for the background for those using a resolution that doesnt match up the menu

you can download it here, just specify the location of your DSL2.1 with CCAI and hit unzip and it will install itself into your copy of CCAI

http://filefactory.com/file/ah1a8eh/n/CCAI_1_1_Patch_exe (http://filefactory.com/file/ah1a8eh/n/CCAI_1_1_Patch_exe)

Full information on this AI pack can be found here (https://gametechmods.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2075)


Now I guess your wondering about the competition ? well basically you could have the chance of winning the following prizes

(http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s36/westcoastdrags/emc-rtprizes.png)

these are replica components (the description was actually copy and pasted off a website selling these motors) and they are a bit faster then normal E-Tek motors but fear not as I have tested then and they dont glitch like crazy.

how do you win one of these you ask ?

basically I have hidden a message somewhere in the game and you have to locate it, it could be absolutely anywhere... so your not completely lost I have an image of where to find the message... only its completely warped

each day I will unwarp the image a little bit thus relieving the location a bit more, this will happen for up to 5 days until the full image is shown, the competition will run until someone can notify me of the messages location and tell me what it says

anyone can join in and there is no limit to guesses (but please dont spam with stabs in the dark) first person to find it gets themselves a prize that is legal in Clash Cubes 3

Final Clue:

damn I had a feeling that would happen.... its one thing I didnt ask the beta testers to check, basically to get the spray paint effect I wanted I did it on the background so by the looks it gets messed up on some resolutions... I was working on a proper TGA menu but the program I was using decided to kill it... and then time caught up with me

also I forgot to mention it is recommended that you apply this to a new dsl 2.1

Can I stack this onto the NAR AI?
Title: CCAI Release & Competition
Post by: JoeBlo on August 12, 2009, 06:55:19 AM
this will overwrite the first 15 teams and the first team of your Team HQ so it is best to put this on a clean DSL2.1

also in an unexpected outcome SSG has won the competition in 2 hours lol I wont revel its location for those who still want to find it

and you have got the game to run ? or does it crash on boot up ?

Post by: System32 on August 12, 2009, 08:24:37 AM
Seriously, You made that WAAY to easy.

Even without a proper DSL DL, I can tell it is in the components section. Warp it more next time.

Post by: JoeBlo on August 12, 2009, 08:48:30 AM
that would likely be an installation issue... did you open the exe and choose your clean copy of DSL 2.1 then hit unzip ? that should install it on your DSL2.1 ?
Title: CCAI Release & Competition
Post by: Pwnator on August 12, 2009, 08:57:47 AM
Gah. You fooled me with All Terrain Train (its nose is in the opposite direction, by the way). XD

Heh. Found it. Just had to place it where people don't bother looking at, don't you? :P

I did not do that first time but when i did it....
nothing happened.
CCAI HATES ME! XD.

Post by: JoeBlo on August 12, 2009, 09:44:55 AM
if you specify your DSL 2.1 and hit unzip it will then pop up with a message saying it has been extracted then its done

Hey JoeBlo just wanted to say that the pack looks great. I just d/led it.

2 Things:
1: Where the walls in CC2 that high in the CC2 Arena?
2: Thanks for including Death In A Box 4 in the pack.

For everyone else; DIAB 4 was my original entry into CC2, but Super SnS was better, so I just entered Super SnS.

Title: CCAI Release & Competition
Post by: Somebody on August 12, 2009, 12:56:30 PM
:-(

Poor you.

Here is all you need;

Have a DSL 2.1 game
Drag CCAI Pack 1.0 Download into game folder.
Right Click Icon of CCAI Pack that you just downloaded
Select "Open"
When it asks you if you want to Run the .exe or not, select "Run"
Wait a little bit
Done

Yes, it only worked for 3 minutes then it crashed, afterwards, i coudn't even play any of my other packs.

Post by: JoeBlo on August 12, 2009, 06:36:56 PM
encase anyone is lost it IS an exe file so you only have to double click the icon not try to extract it, when the small browse window opens find your copy of clean DSL 2.1 (just select the file nothing else) then hit unzip and it will install everything to your game

Post by: TriTon on August 12, 2009, 08:55:06 PM
I have it running now, but Joe, is this supposed to happen?

Post by: JoeBlo on August 14, 2009, 08:20:16 AM
I cant really say a thing but maybe get a new DSL copy ? you didnt delete the old DSL folders and replace them with the extracted files did you ?

from my understanding, DSL isnt loading the arenas into your game, either as they are not there or an Issue with DSL itself

try again with a new version and let me know how you go :-D

also for those still trying to guess the hidden "easter egg" for fun the image has been unwarped a bit more (might be giving a bit to much away now :P)

Title: CCAI Release & Competition

I redownloaded it 3 times, i still get the same thing.

EDIT: I finally got it working, i had to move all kinds of stock and DSL files around. The only problem is that i'm stuck with the DSL menu.

Can I still PM in to get the prize?

...Come on now, you can't not see the "Export Paint Template" box in front of it.

Fun fact: There are a handful of bots in the stock DSL AI that have secret things hidden in the same place as All Terrain Cube.

Another fun fact: 99% of the bots I skin nowadays have something there too.  Usually something silly.

Consequently, there is a 99% chance that there is at least one other bot with a secret message in the CCAI. ;)

Oh, and good work on the pack, Joe.
