ReForged AI Pack - Version 2.0 In Development

[RedAce]

Special thanks to Lemonism for making this awesome logo.

Reforged v2.0 is now currently in development.  You can still download v1.1, but be warned, it is horrifically outdated and might not live up to current standards for Ironforge.

If you do want to help with rebuilds, then more power to you, and I'd absolutely appreciate it.  But there are a few rules to address:

1. It must be built using like a Standard bot. (Standard is pretty much competitive DSL or Ironforge where it's competitive but it must be realistic.)

2. Biggest rule change here. Best come best serve.  Ultimately I think this will be the big thing to help with version 2.0.  I'm mostly making this rule so the bot can actually put up some sort of fight.  Like better than ReForged 1.1 anyway.

3. Keep the style of the original design as possible for the main LWs, MWs and HWs.  The rest will be AWs, BWs, and SHWs inspired by the themes of the teams.

4. I'll be doing most discussions for designs in a private discord server.  Send me a PM on GTM or discord if you want a link to access.  Mostly so I can keep things organized and everyone there can discuss things in a "round table style" for lack of a better term.

UPDATE: 8/22/16 - The Pack is released and updated!  CLICK HERE TO GET THE PACK

I am absolutely sure that everything is included and working here, but I do ask nicely for anyone to report any errors I made and overlooked.

Some features of the Reforged AI Pack (Also found in the ReadMe):

- 54 Recreated bots from Vanilla Stock RA2 (duh.)
- 45 Extra bots that not only are additional LWs and MWs, but AWs, BWs, and SHWs.
(All AWs and BWs labeled with an "AW -" and BW -" on their name, and SHWs are labeled with a Purple "S" on their file.
Check the "Change your Weightclass.txt" for more details on how to do this)
- 6 Bots that are inspired by Robot Arena 1
- A large selection of Arenas not featured when you first download the game.
- New component skins for AI bots.
- 25 Brand new events and prizes for Team HQ.  There are some that's inspired by actual GTM tournaments or some that are original.
- Some new menu graphics.
- Brand new sound effects.
- Some easter eggs for those who can find them.  Good luck finding them though.
If you somehow manage to find them all from WITHIN the game (or at least how you can), then I might give you something, but I ain't telling you what something is.

Thank you very much for all of the help and enjoy!

Well, naturally, I got The Boxer sorted if you should want it :P Love the idea.

[G.K.]

Yeah, this is an excellent idea.

I'll do anything you want me to do for it - and i'm especially interested in .gib UI editing now I've done it for the first time. I've also got my eye on building Spin Bonker.

[Reier]

I'll see what I can send in
don't expect too many from me though, especially with school starting here soon

Up to you guys if you wish to do it. And thanks.

I'll probably give something a go.

I've got a whole day off tomorrow, and have been meaning to get back into Ironforge. I'll try and work on some stuff. :)

I would love to help out, but I honestly don't feel that confident in my skinning abilities. I will see what I can do.

I would also like to suggest a rather punny name: Stock AIronforge.

Do I have to make the LW/HW as flippers or can I just turn them into popups like restocked did?

I'll save name suggestions for later for when I make Logos and the like, but I like what you gave to me :)

Deal. I'd prefer for the robots to stay to their original bot type and have it stick out from the rest because of that. Yet flippers have a bit of  disadvantage since all the arenas are pretty much enclosed, which I could prevent with Arena selection. So your choice is whatever you want to do.

I'm sure the rest of the community would be happy to muck in on some skinning if your bots were right for what they were rebuilds of :)

there are some bots in stock which are more popup-y already ie dementia

I was going to say, I'm not confident with my standard building but I'd be happy to give the skins a go

Thanks, Lemonism! I really appreciate the offer, and I'll most likely take you up on it. In the mean time, I call dibs on Tornado, and I have a really good idea for Tailwhip, though it involves changing the bot type.

[RedAce]

We have our very first robot in the pack! Craaig has taken The Boxer. I'll put up an update to indicate what has been done so I don't post every second what has been done.

rnifnuf: I'll put you up for both, and as long Tailwhip doesn't deviate too much from it's original design to where the only thing in common is it's name, then go for it.

EDIT: Oh, and I pondered a thought when getting stuff organized. You know Tunnel Rat? That sample bot when you first download Ironforge? I think it might make a good Coal Miner, assuming 123STW is cool with this. Any objections?

i wanna do the GOOD OL BOYS MAN

[ty4er]

gonna try backyard ripper and little metal friend

[RedAce]

090901 and ty4er: Done and done.

By the way, I've already gotten myself an almost complete Ninja right now. So if you wanted to claim it, Would you can say you got...

*put on sunglasses*

Ninja'd?

[Thrackerzod]

I'd love to contribute, but I'm not really very good at Ironforge (check out my showcase).  It'll be a while before I get back to my computer, anyway.

[Somebody]

This might be a reason for me to download Ironforge
