So all the bots in the team have to be flippers then?Yes, I am hoping that having to re-build Grog the Warrior as a flipper will increase originality :P
I like flippers!Great! Pick a team to build if you'd like
I will help you in every way possible.
I'll do the north polars if that's OK.Fine
Any at all.Pick one then!
A while back I turned all the XTRA bots into flippers too, want those as-well?
Can you include weaponed flippers? xDYes, hybrids are fine, as long as the flipper is still the main weapon
OK, I will have...Red ZoneDamnSparkDamnHexDamn
Hey, why has vertigo got 3! Could I do Spark anyway, since you have 3!
If not, I will do... Steel Yard Dog.

Repost after long edit.
O.K then, can I have team dragon (I have interesting plans for ronin in particular).Sure
I'll have any random team you want done.Pick, or do you want me to randomize :P
Just any one that seems unpopular.black storm
I'll do Team Z.Great!
Can I add a Team Havok?1) Not yet, I want the primary teams done first You are fine to add your havok bots in the extra bots in each team though
Also I'll do Hex and/or spike heads.
MetaGon?
Team HexFine
I'll take team MetaGon.Fine, oh,and I'll corect the spelling :P
Wait, this is DSL? DAMNIT.(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/42761160076_o.gif) OFCOURSE!
I'll take RIOTGreat
Wait, this is DSL? DAMNIT.Er, yeah
Vertigo, am I allowed to BFE the chassis height?Yes
I thought we were using the original chassisNo
Here's team MetaGon. Not showing insides, but see what you can decipher from just these pictures.Send plz

WHY MUST THIS BE DSLFrom this, I assume you are no longer doing this, so I've removed you from the AI team, if I have assumed wrong, just tell me, and I will put you back on again
I think it would be cooler if it were stock. I'm sick of DSL, so I don't know if I'm gonna do this.
Hmmm...I think I'll give Good Ol' Boys a try, if you don't mind. Not sure how good it'll be, flippers are far from my speciality. But this gives me a reason to get better at building them.Great
I can do High Voltage.Great
the SCRAPpers
I'll do North PolarsI think that 2 teams would be a maximum per user, untill I'm sure that nobody else wants the remaining teams
Give me anything that isn't done already.prehistoric
Actually, I'll stick with Prehistoric.Fine :P
Noooooooooooooooooooo...Fixed
I'll fix
What is the Epic Showdown Arena? Maybe we could use the Jousting Arena, you can get it on RFSHQ.I want OOTA-able arenas only

I tend to be a bit more picky having studied/ completed courses in Graphic Design...Well, the pack is still DSL, some DSL references should stay (hopefully :P), but I was hoping for it to still have a reasonably large "contrast"
I dont mean to step on toes here, I will have a play around myself if you like but let me give you some tips/ feedback encase you want to try it yourself again...
your images are stretched (the warning stripes) thats a big no, no for a non vector image.. you would be better to tile it (I have seen that image before from google :P) it is possible to tile it.
the light blue on the splash is to conflicting and in your face.. you can break it up with another colour between it and the stripes but the bight clean colour against the "dirty" looking warnign stripes doesn't work IMO.
do you want the DSL references to be included or done away with all together?
What colour do you think would look better on the splash? I chose blue for the sort of "Sky High" look
plans-Definetly! The more original thedesigns are, the better!
BerZerker-Small JX flipper
LugNutZ-dual JX flipper with spikes
Jabber of EyeZ-quad JX flipper with spikes
Zer0-LW invertible flipper (one BSG fires upward and one downward, its invertible)
Zealous-HW Juggler/flipper hybrid
Zychic-MW grabber (flipper and hammer both on one burst motor, if this is allowed)
Just need to know whether we can use grabbers or not (FoF style bots) then I can make my team.
What colour do you think would look better on the splash? I chose blue for the sort of "Sky High" look
blue is fine just not as conflicting as you had it before
make the tradition between dirty looking warning stripes and a blue background smoother,, the bright clean light blue doesnt work unless you have nice clean warning stripes with bright yellow (you can probably find these easy enough)
here is one I found with a quick google search
http://s3.amazonaws.com/pixmac-thumbnail/traditional-warning-stripe.jpg (http://s3.amazonaws.com/pixmac-thumbnail/traditional-warning-stripe.jpg)
rotate it 90 degrees and it will tile perfectly and look a lot nicer.. just dont resize it unless your using a good program (not paint or anything)
then you can get away with your light blue
All teams are filled up now, but help with the UI would be useful :PWhat colour do you think would look better on the splash? I chose blue for the sort of "Sky High" look

... Or he could use the dirty one and make a background similar to the Starcore one (dark blue, stars etc).
I wouldn't mind helping with some bots or UI stuff.

I am remaking Hanky Panky and have made it have a wedge that gets under EVERYTHING in NAR AI!I highly doubt that, there will always be a bot that gets under it.
SM:
BOT - 300 is great!
I'm a bit worried how Diablo is going to get under anything It can get under the DSL Devil
I would like to see the flipper be more of a main weapon in CEU OK, will work on it
The last three are excellent!
Whathttp://beetlebros.gametechmods.com/bbeans/matches/5/InsultInjury_PitA.wmv (http://beetlebros.gametechmods.com/bbeans/matches/5/InsultInjury_PitA.wmv)
OK, might have time to skin the rest tomorrow.I'm OK ATM, but thanks for the offer
If you want, I can do another team to lower your workload.
Do NOT, use mag snappers!
But bsg's are lighter, are just as powerful and drain less battery powerDo NOT, use mag snappers!
They aren't that bad, and I can think of at least one instance where BSG's will only fit by making the bot overweight.
IIRC I never said I wasn't working on my team ya know.The last I heard from you, you started complaining about this being DSL
I thought that Dad Dog was OK, it got under many bots in DSL and rammed/flipped them OOTABig Dog's Chasis is HUGE and it only has one large JX, on a HW, this isn't nearly enough, I know you can build SO much better than this
I'll remake Manic Mutt for you, but why make such a deal over mags?
Is there a way you could keep the scoop, it looks so much bigger than those puny plows.
I will remake the MW though, It will have a scoop but it will be Beta powered.
Meh, you should stop judging wedges by DSL, most of them are skirt hinges.DSL is a wedge war :P
Damn, green is ugly.
*Runs in*
Did I hear someone say "skinned"?! That's my job! :P
@Vertigo - Shoot me a PM about what I could do with the UI.
Damn, green is ugly.
LIAR
Opinions aren't lies.......I don't care for that puke-green myself though.Then you're saying that reality is subjective?
No, I'm saying that Nary wasn't lying by saying green is ugly.Opinions aren't lies.......I don't care for that puke-green myself though.Then you're saying that reality is subjective?
I offer my skinned BSG's for this. Damn, green is ugly.I accept, yes, they are ugly :P

Now I want to do more, but no spaces.
What about "Robot Arena Reincarnated" from DSL?
- Twiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisted Arena (With permission from GK)
Thanks- Twiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisted Arena (With permission from GK)
Please feel free to use both.
It's on the exchange.Great, now I can make a team RA2TC (I only had 5) :P
I chose to use the one I did in the team as it is more original.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/693WIIDE.png)That looks great :D
Is this the building style you want or should I aim for more realistic looking bot?

Very nice Joe! Might I even go so far as to say pretty?Nice to see some original designs there :D
I've got about 1/2 my team built. we've got
Goldfish--Rammer/flipper rebuild of Hammerhead Shark. Nothing great, but it works
CHUD Runner--Fullbody flipper rebuild of Blood Runner.
Pooh Bear--Forward flipper rebuild of Grizzly Bear.
I'm also playing around with CHUD Runner 2, Bud The Chud Runner, A SHW version which is a really bad idea that has many glaring weaknesses, but I've had more fun driving it around the arena than any other bot i've ever made.
Oh, and an as of yet unnamed bot that is a piston flipper. Not effective at all, but you asked for originality, so I'm trying. :P
I gotta build one more and then i'll have a team for ya.
If I may make a suggestion, there should be some inertia-powered axle flippers in here too, like Ludicrous Speed. Would add some nice variety in the designs.Yes I agree, I'll make one for the North Polers
:trollface
Needs moar violence. And cowbell. :p
But its SkAI High not SkAi High...

Erm...Have any of them done well in a tourney?
Enigma X, 3V=3IR, E=MC^3???
I'm planning a team, in which there will be the flippers that have won, or have done well in tournaments
So far I have:
- Smashbox 2
- Terminal Force
- Bulldozer 2
Do any of you have suggestions for the last three places?
EFIE? I can send you the new one if you would like. Its at least predicted to do well in COTT. XDSorry, I'm only including LW - SHW
if this comes out i will dl it :)It will
ARGH!I don't want two teams full of Havoks :P
I can't get Team Hex looking any good.
They all look like mis-shapen Havoks!
You just keep readin' my mind don't ya!Mwahahahahahahahahaha...
It OOTAs better than Havok 3 (My last JX flipper before this AI, that's how long it has been!)See, its much better when you don't use mag snappers :P
What about Urjak's CC3 winning bot?That was front hinged?
SM and I decided to split Robot Arena Reincarnated between us. That ok?Yeah, thats fine :D
Pretty much, without going overweight.Ah, OK, thats fine then
'Bout time I showcased something I suppose :P
*snip*
Are Athrobotics/XTRA bots already taken? I'd like to do them if not.I'm not including AW/BW in this, because they can't really be built effectively as flippers, you can do the XTRA bots if you like though :D
Thanks :P'Bout time I showcased something I suppose :P
*snip*
That is, by far, the most optimized LW flipper I have seen. :O
I'm not including AW/BW in this, because they can't really be built effectively as flippers
YesI'm not including AW/BW in this, because they can't really be built effectively as flippers
If I prove you wrong, can I make the arthrobotics team? :P
My AW flipper that I just made is able to throw LW's OotA. :Do_O, pics please!
H18s smatzone is BEHIND the betas. Necause thats where its best :]
i think you would be better off without the metal hinge and with stabilizers, better drive, or more ants.
its not like your going to get into a wedge war in the aw class.
use 24 bit..Nope, didn't work
if it still doesn't work then proceed to delete paint.net as it cannot achieve such a simple task :P

What about a ludicrous speed style flipper, I don't think one has been made yet
OK, its either that or the normal oneWhat about a ludicrous speed style flipper, I don't think one has been made yet
Robokillase is.
I don't like the arena, personally.
Does anyone else feels having so many of KM's Havoks will ruin the originality concept?Yes, I have asked him to only include them in one team...
Erm..Yeah, thats what I thought, I just filled it with colour, and I thought I'd see what it looked like
Actually looks horrible. No offense but it looks rushed and messy.
damn.. a warning would have been nice..You wanted to do the UI? Erm, yes please :D
no offense of course *wipes blood from eyes*
If vertigo needs a hand I am not that bat at PDN.Its fine
Might actually AI some stuff soon. :PI have 4/5 of my teams AI'd (including a secret team)

Though if you want any opinions of the UI..I may just do that, if I have the time :P
The text color you have in the sig images looks really nice and classy and much better then the bright orange, I'd suggest making the actual UI the same way you have done the sig. ;)
He's redoing the DSL stuff, not stock.
Yeah, the second would be easier, but how do I make navigation? :P
Yeah, the second would be easier, but how do I make navigation? :P
Correct me if Im wrong Click...but it would be the same thing you told me to tweak on the CCIV arena in the python? with the python walls?
No, well not for now anyway
I have ideas, all will be revealed once v1.0 is released :PNo, well not for now anyway
If you did do that, it could be 1 or 2 teams with totally unique bots, to not make it too repetitive. Though finding unique (and effective) flipper designs would be difficult.
Bots like Roadblock and Storm 2 that use the shape of the chassis/robot to flip the competitors.No, they are not allowed
As seen with SII it is possible to OOTA bots.
Piston flippers?Yeah, thats fine
RLF?(https://gametechmods.com/TournamentFiles/botm/feb11/004.jpg)
VS flipper.
A VS but the weapons are replaced with non damaging things.
Like Mako's hammers replaced with flipper segments or wedges.
What have I sent so far?You've sent me Black Storm, which I've just AI'd :D
There is a beta version out for the AI teamCould I download the beta? Or is non-public?
The full version should be released on March 5th if everything goes to plan
I will make the rookies
Why so sad?I will make the rookies
D:
Then you've not installed it right
SKBT, could you send me your team using a differnet uploader please (and your RA2TC2 bot)?
Thanks
This is turning into King Mushroom AIHow, he's only got 2 teams :P
At least they're not all Havok robots.Yeah, I didn't want 6 of them :P
At least they're not all Havok robots.Pretty much the Lesser of Two Evils though, I must admit :rolleyes:
I thought you guys were doing flipper rebuilds of the DSL bots?
Can I build some teams?No
I DLd the beta but it crashes.I installed to a fresh copy of DSL.Can you give more information please, when does it crash?
Ah, very good point
For the PREHISTORIC team to work, you will need to put popup.py and bountyhunter.py into your AI folder
Can you change the black to something that blends better?This better?
I like it otherwise.
Works now, my DSL was massed up so I downloaded a new one off sage's sig.Ah, very good point
For the PREHISTORIC team to work, you will need to put popup.py and bountyhunter.py into your AI folder
Mine crashes when I try to start it, ditto with NAR 2.4.

Works, and is a blast. A little easy though, TBH. Just put Steel 120 sheets on metals and you have the best wedges = Game over.
Still, more fun than DSL, NAR or Stock.
You can just be lucky with metal hinges, it's perfectly possible he has.But wedges, no matter how good they are, will always slide right over wedges of another bot, no wedges get under everything
You can just be lucky with metal hinges, it's perfectly possible he has.But wedges, no matter how good they are, will always slide right over wedges of another bot, no wedges get under everything
He won't have beaten all of them, aspecially since the beta includes two of the very best teams in the pack
I disagree, when this is complete, there will be 19 teams with 6 bots in each. Thats 114 botsYou can just be lucky with metal hinges, it's perfectly possible he has.But wedges, no matter how good they are, will always slide right over wedges of another bot, no wedges get under everything
He won't have beaten all of them, aspecially since the beta includes two of the very best teams in the pack
With the right wedge, he is able to beat every bot in here. That's just how it is.
Your bots weren't in the beta
TBH the three beta'd havok has surprising wedginess
can you skin my bots? im laazyI can do so, send them over
Vert, look at the post above yours.I am on half term now, if Scrap sends me the bots, I can skin them, AI them, all tomorrow
Anyway, too late now, I am not here all week.
I'm having trouble with Pon2(the moo)n, doesn't really work.It doesn't have to hover you know :P
Actually, how would a hover flipper work? It'd just be too high
Ah, but it would still have trouble getting under anythingActually, how would a hover flipper work? It'd just be too high
Axle wedges.
My stuff you need is done, I just need a skinner to service certain bots for me.I can skin if need be
G.K., if you don't mind, I've slightly changed Pure Love so its less havoky

you really dont need to post the same thing and every update in all of your threads you know..Yeah, but a lot of people don't check the playground, and some peoplehelping with this aren't involved with RA2TC2, so I just wanted to make sure everything was clear :D
And sorry yoda, but overall your team was a bit too wacky XD, I may use a few bots from it though
Team Dragon
RIOT
Half of Robot Arena Reincarnated (Topnot, Pon2n and Recyclops done)
Half of Arthrobotics (Pure Love, Robokillase and Peer Pressure done)

Im glad somone is making a flipper mod. RA2 does not take flippers well. Its all about how much "damage" is caused. When will it be done.
