Robot Wars 2013 AI Pack

[WhamettNuht]

I tried one version of Mortis already, but it failed massively. Now that I have this new method under my belt however, I may consider it


As for the video, I'm trying to stay clear of videos as the detail in them is not the best.
And I think I would prefer to do Terrorhurtz instead of Killerhurtz :P (Terrorhurtz just slays IMO)

You will? Fantastic- if it helps in the development, I'll be happy to send you a working prototype of it I made some time ago. It's got quite a good method behind it for the axe which accurately replicates its speed, so hopefully that can help you with it.
 
 
Still, I might have an idea for X-Terminator's textures. I'm in touch with the chap who currently owns it on Facebook, so I can certainly ask him for some photos of it, if you'd like.

If you made a Major Tom replica I would love you forever.
Anyway I reckon a Barberous rep would look really good or maybe a disc-o-inferno rep.

[WhamettNuht]

I think I have an idea as to how I could do Mortis, so none needed :) As for the pictures, if he is able to get some, that would be MASSIVELY appreciated! :D

OK then, that's good- looking forward to seeing it ready.  :D
 
 
In return, I'll go and ask him for you. One good turn deserves another, after all.  :P

Nobody ever makes Killerhurtz replicas anymore. Terrorhurtz is EVERYWHERE.

[WhamettNuht]

Thanks! :D I'd need some side ones, back, front and top :3

Done. I've requested at least five different shots (Top, Front, Back, both Sides), so once they come through, they should be all right. Glad to be of assistance.  :D
 
 
EDIT: If a Cassius II replica is planned as well, I've got several different photos from different angles, for similar purposes. If you need them, just let me know, and I'll be happy to provide them.   :P

[Merrick]

I'm guessing this image is absolutely no use to you. I don't really know anything about textures or skinning, but this is pretty high-res.

[Jonzu95]

Wouldn't the Flywheel version be better?

[WhamettNuht]

Thanks a lot GF :D


And it might be ok... we'll see :P


And Yes the flywheel version kicked ass, but I really need just a couple more axe bots in this :P

[akshaylan]

I think I may have missed the suggestions window since this thread exploded into life overnight, but Dantomkia would be nice. It's my favourite robot.

[GoldenFox93]

Thanks a lot GF :D


And it might be ok... we'll see :P

Glad to be of assistance. Hopefully they should be here in a day or so, and as soon as they are, I'll send you them.
 
 
And that sounds very good, too- if you need any help with it, just let me know.  :D

[WhamettNuht]

Actually would you mind sending over the pics of Cassius 2 that you have? I MIGHT see if I can make a good enough replica of it :P
I have an idea as to how I could make it, and it should be somewhat easy... but I would need some good images for the textures :P

......and a million pants were soiled in anticipation.

Quoted for making me laugh a little... xD

I'll be happy to! Here we are-

 
Overall view
 

Rear View (Showing the workings for the spike)
 

View of Front (Shows the general shape)
 

Pit View (This one might come in useful for planning the colour and layout of the flipper)

Those are my main ones, but I can certainly provide more if necessary. I've also got this here to give a guideline on the general shape and capabilities- set it to 480p for best results.

[WhamettNuht]

Thanks, would you also happen to have a pic of the back with armour and one of the logo?

[akshaylan]

About the UI, I have done the main menu and exhibition match, and am half way through the bot lab. However, I doubt I'm going to get time to do the TeamHQ and Multiplayer, so I need someone else to do that.

-Stuff I will do
--Main Menu
--BotLab
--Exhibition Match

- Stuff someone else must do
--TeamHQ
--Multiplayer

[WhamettNuht]

That's great! :D If anyone wants to help speed up development and help with the other 2 UI's, that would be MASSIVELY appreciated!! :D
Would you mind posting a few pics akshaylan? :)
