DSL BBEANS AI
« on: January 05, 2011, 10:14:03 PM »
UPDATE:  The pack is released!  Link: http://beetlebros.gametechmods.com/files/dsl_bbeans_ai.rar





It's been a long time (some might say too long) but it's nearly here!  I just have to put all the files together and possibly make some in-game events.


(Yes, I put some orange in the background UI so I didn't have to go through all the .gib files and change all the highlights and text from orange to green.  Sue me.)


Here's the breakdown of what you get in the pack:


- All 128 bots that competed in BBEANS2, 4, and 6
- 31 additional bots that were replaced, disqualified, or too late
- The Electric Arena 2 and both versions of the BBEANS Tournament Arena
- New music used in BBEANS match videos (not the same ones in the stock pack either)
- Of course, a few easter eggs (but they are WELL hidden this time... you won't be able to find them just by looking through the new files  ;) )


And a further breakdown of the teams.  Some are recycled from the stock AI pack, others are totally new:


(Bot order goes LW, MW, HW, LW, LW/MW, LW)


The Champions
"No time for losers, 'cause we are the champions!"
Death of Angels 2, Hazardous Contraption, Smashbox 2, Death of Angels (original version), The Hummingbird (drum by Sage, replaced with DoA)

If you don't see your bot (or any bot for that matter) on that list then post here.


Also, how many people want new BBEANS-themed in-game tournaments in the Team HQ?  I did some for the stock pack but I don't want to bother if nobody really cares about it... I can recycle all the prizes from the stock pack so making them in DSL won't take long though.  What do you guys think?

Nice, CB...  Done some work here.   Thanks much for your efforts. :claping
 
It's very nice to see the effort still put into this game.
 
I'll check it out when it comes out (or before if you want)....  :mrgreen:
Input is appreciated. :)

YAY

I'll be the first to revel all of the easter eggs :trollface

And about Cirque de Malheur, it is OK but Cirque du Malheur sounds better.

Edit: Wait, it's not released yet ? Damn. Oh well.

Yes, I agree that Cirque du Malheur sounds better, but Google Translator gave me "de" so I wasn't sure it was proper French.  Will change.


It will be released probably within a week or so, I just want feedback on the inclusion of in-game events and to make sure I'm not missing any bots.

NP. Didn't really have the mental capacity tonight to read through your whole post of work,... just glad and thankful for your (and others) tenacious efforts... :)  Nice surprise to find back here.

You might want to make a poll for the BBEANS-theme in-game tournaments.

Personally I don't care. It's a cool addition, but really it's only candy and serves no practical purpose.

if you want my opinion I have never played in game DSL tournaments.

its only really fun with realistic stock robots fighting the original AI.. otherwise repairs are too annoying..

Indeed, repairs are good on component-low robots (like stock AI) but when you start to spam razors or have 60+ components on a bot...

Yeah........  When it comes to in game tournaments, it's heavy components all the way.  The repair cost is the same rather you are repairing a DS light or a 70kg sledge hammer.

Well I'm not really looking for a majority here.  I'll put in the ingame events if there's even mild interest since it's not that much work.


I know very few people do them (I don't know how long it's been since I did one), but it does make for a unique challenge and requires a totally different style of building.


In fact now that I think of it, it would be interesting to make a "Ingame Tournament Challenge" thread where you try to win ingame tournaments against Nar AI or Starcore AI.  With non-popups.

That would be especially hard for somebody like me who only built one bot type ever  :confused:

Ministry Of Silly Names. :gawe:

I did actually have a stab at the ingame tournaments in Stock BBEANS AI. It did get quite annoying when you ran out of time on your razors. But then that was all that people ever used, since sledges were worse than useless in Stock. I think it might be a bit better in DSL, with the wider variety of heavy weapons available for effective use.

actually was my original idea for Backlash Online

have a passcode or such shown at the Golden Sawblade screen and race to find it out and submit it

only problem is everyone will just look in the files themselves and not bother playing..
