Three years ago, I released an AI pack known as DSL Reborn, which was to replace the original AI included in DSL to greatly improve for testing your bots against anything that would be included in most if not all DSL-IRL tournaments.  Looking back, while it still accomplishes the goal I made, it does have some flaws with bots that haven't quite benefited from special component packs such as DSC's IRL Components, which is used on 99% of all bots in DSL nowadays.  So I decided to remake it all from scratch, and hopefully everything turned out well.  From the builds themselves, the new and improved AI that said bots have, and even other aesthetics included to benefit.  This pack might even get a patch to even get updated depending on where DSL 2.31/DSL 2.2 CE Update (or Whatever is happening with that update) goes and included for improvements.  That being said: Yes, I would feel fine with this pack being included inside that update project if that's still in development, and it might even get an update in that very patch so who knows.

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy this pack, and thank you all.

Hi.



...Yeah, I'm not so good with names.

I bet a few of you guys are aware about this as I have showcased this about a week ago, but here it is.
All the bots in this pack were built and skinned by me.  Massive Thanks to Thrackerzod for being a cool dude and beta testing this.

This is an AI pack where I've rebuilt the first 45 stock bots in DSL 2.2 with an IRL style.  I've done my hardest to make them as authentic and accurate to the original as possible.  This pack isn't really meant to test how good your bot is but more-so giving you more IRL bots to fight than just replicas.  If you want some updated bots that are meant to test how good your bot is, then get something like NAR AI 3.1.

NOTE: This will replace any bots in the first 3 slots for the first 15 teams.  The Bindings will also override any custom teams that you may have added on from the first few in DSL 2.2, so beware.

If you're curious on what the bots will look like once you download them, you can find all of them here.

Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy the pack.  :)

Edit: And the expansion pack which adds two new teams which have the remade RA1 Reincarnated team and the Arthrobotics team is released.

Just simply copy and paste these files in the current RA2 with your current Reborn AI folder and you should be good to go.

Nice, I'd maybe add "Redace's DSL Reborn AI" to the Title so it doesn't get confused with any other similar named packs.

I think this fixes the one biggest issues I had with DSL, for one how all the bots were like "oh I'm going to add skirts so your wedge will be useless", it really felt like they were all trying too hard, and some of the original designs were also completely thrown away instead of trying to keep it close to the original while still being a good bot. Of course this still changes some bots but most keep their original design and really look good in IRL, only critique would be that some of the skins don't look as good, at least on the image posted here.

Tried out some bots, the stock ones seem to be a bit slow(then again the other ones are slow as well, probably just a DSL thing) but otherwise look designed nicely, love how you added a flail to Stingray. Steel Yard Dogs Lightweight has armor around it, right? I saw something flying off and shortly after that the game crashed, probably a one time thing. Only other thing I noticed is how Emergency's Flipper sadly isn't as powerful as Stock's(or at least it didn't look like it would be that strong).

nice job man

[R01]

Are there any plans to update this? I think some stuff could be adjusted a little so some bots don't have slow turning while others race around at game breaking speeds.
I've also had a rather high amount of crashes with Coal Miner, did this happen during testing as well?

I didn't even know this existed... Goddamnit. I need to test this ASAP.

[Lightning S.]

Merry Christmas everyone!  I managed to get the Expansion Pack up and ready.  The download is in the original post, but you can also click here for it as well.

Please report back if I have missed any obvious errors.

Topknot II, Pon2n, and ScootOrDie their startup is backwards but its g8 m8.

For those not aware, I have been working on an update for DSL Reborn AI so it can be a little more modernized with a lot of the components used and style of building I have come to nowadays.  The new Download Link is inside the original post.  I hope you enjoy.  :)

Sorry, have been out of the game for a while so I feel like I'm missing something.

I went to download it via the link but got an error message: "the archive is either in unknown format or damaged".

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

It works fine downloading for me.

What ISN'T working is several robots that keep crashing the game even though I've added all the recommended components.
