Robot Wars RA2 - OFFICIAL MOD

[HereticBlue]

Moved post to the page for convenience:



Hello lads, had a brilliant weekend helping out with the Robot Wars Northern tour, made brilliant friends and had my first experience battling thanks to Jarvis, letting me fight Ricochet against himself driving Flow, Explosion, Satanics,  Beauty 2, Tiny Hurtz and the Toon raider lads' lifter which I didn't catch the name of. I managed to give them all a good run for their money, slamming them around the arena and Beauty 2 losing a wheel helped. All the robots bar Ricochet and Explosion were conked out and and almost got the latter into the pit before the radio signal started glitching.  I only lost to Explosion on a crowds decision so I have to admit... I've been bitten by the bug and in a few years time I defiantly will make a feather and take part.

Had a brilliant laugh during the event with everyone, enjoyed being part of the pit crew and I can honestly say I am absolutely shattered after loading the arena and robots into the lorry for the past two days. :P but if the lads read this then you know who you are, a massive thanks and hopefully I'll see you again soon.


Back to the business you GTM lads are interested in I can present to you Alien Destructor and Big Nipper.(at last)

Daleksec7 made the claws so yous have him to thank for that, our first joint project and the rest is my my doing. Alien Destructors jaws were abit of an arse but I managed to pull them off quite well I think!








Next up in line are Toon Raider 2, Dystopia, TillyEwe 3, Bulldog Breed and the newly upgraded Ripper which I believe non have you will have seen yet. I would like to make Noisy Cricket, considering how kind Dave Weston/RazerDave was throughout the past couple of days and for giving me a lift home last night after the meal but he doesn't think it's worth it... So we'll have to wait and see.

Daleksec7 has been working on Shunt, Sgt Bash and Firestorm so expect to see them shortly. I have and I can honestly say you will not be disappointed!

those are some very nice looking reps

[Badnik96]

This is some fantastic stuff. Keep up the good work guys!

[yugitom]

The tour sounded awesome, dude. Big Nipper and Alien Destructor look very nice. Can't wait to see more replicas.

[ArtyomTDO]

These, along with the others, are just... Amazing, even with a few years of practice in CAD, I don't think I could even come within a mile of how good these are. By the way, if you don't get the chance, once my heavy is done, feel free to have a go, tbh, you'd probably drive a lot better than me anyway. (I've had horrible radio problems in the past... Mainly, pointing the stick towards the top right would go forwards, but bottom left was spin on the spot :/ )

tl;dr next year, if you haven't already had a go with a heavy, feel free to have a go with The Procrastnitron.

I wonder any of the Burst motors can make a CO2 effect and can wear down and cannot self right like beast couldn't after flipping ripper lots of time before getting flipped itself

Yeah, it's easy to do. Just edit the sound files to play a piston sound. Also the burst motor will eventually stop firing with power if you don't supply it with enough battery power.

[Jaydee99]

They're amazing

[FOTEPX]

Heretic, you never cease to amaze. Every time I get concerned, you just come out with something new and completely blow me away. Shine on, you crazy Heretic.

[helloface]

So how are all these going to work in game? Will certain components and panels break away, is the whole body going to come off and reveal a generic box chassis, or is there going to be some collision mesh trick?

I'd like to request the Tiberius series 1 2 3 and 4 I made the original Tiberius with a servo motor with t connected extenders to stop the crusher go 360 degrees

[Knight]

Nice work, HB. Can't wait to see more of Daleksec's work as well. Just curious if Big Nipper works like to real thing.

Also, good to know you had fun during the Northern Tour.

Don't post requests unless you're planning on paying for them.

[Camaro Kid]

Awesome work as always HB. Can't wait to play around with both. Good to hear you had a great time during the northern tour aswell

[cephalopod]

Live events are great, good to hear you had fun. The new bots look great by the way, and I'm very much looking forward to seeing DS's Sgt Bash :)

[Jaydee99]

He's already done tiberius 3. Wham did tiberius 4. I agree with Knight.

[HereticBlue]

Sorry, this is just a quick post.

Thank you everyone for the appreciation. bigbigger, I will only make Tiberius 4 if Ed Hoppit allows it. I do indeed offer services for designing custom components ect but I do not make replicas for people unless they own the robot themselves. Same thing regarding 3D printing, unless you yourself ask the roboteer for permission to have a model.

ArtyomTDO, massive thank you for the compliment I really appreciate it. I will be coming along to Barnsley if your attending, it would be great to meet you. :)


Anyway, here's daleksec7's Sgt Bash and Shunt. And Wham's Bigger Brother modified to resemble the real thing more.

[freeziez]

[Mouldy]

YES!

Shunt! I'm going to play the hell out of it. You're a beautiful man HB.

Also, will the scoop move on Shunt? And what about the flamethrower turret?

[Jaydee99]

Oh yes!

[daleksec7]

YES!

Shunt! I'm going to play the hell out of it. You're a beautiful man HB.
