GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #1262 on:** April 04, 2013, 06:09:07 PM »

I don't know if this'll be considered a bump or not, but does anyone know which page the new El Diablo replica showcased here was on?

All the previous updates have been building up to something, and now that the round tank treads and the axle extenders are done, I've finished the new El Diablo!

(Image removed from quote.)

It's now a MW like the real bot, and it's also much more dangerous. The drum is low enough to hit any wedge that tries to get under it, and unlike a lot of replicas, it actually has a decent number of weapon components.

In case you're wondering why the drum looks different, it's based off of this version of El Diablo:

http://www.robotcombat.com/images/bbsf02/large/el_diablo.jpg

Next up: Firestorm. It's about time I started AI'ing these new replicas, and I decided the first team is going to be fire-themed and include Bob, El Diablo, Firestorm, and an as-yet-undetermined SHW (Alcoholic Stepfather?)

This was found on Page 38. You can use the search bar to look inside of the thread that you are currently viewing.

Ah, OK- I'll remember for next time. Thank you!

Is the DSL out yet?

There's a beta version to use.

This looks awesome but it still hasn't been released

Okay, seems that reading a post is quite the challenge here.

To anyone that is planning to ask if DSL3 is there yet...
Click this link: https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?topic=13584.0
In that topic, click the spoiler button. It contains more spoiler buttons. Click them all and reach the beta release of DSL3.
Download it and install as told in the included .txt file.
Enjoy and don't ask annoying questions.

A good skin can make or break a replica. Consider Bob made.

Finally, I can do this under-appreciated bot RA2 justice.

Bob will be appearing in the next beta release. I plan to have at least one, possibly two teams of AI replicas for you to fight. The first team will be Bob, El Diablo, Firestorm, and Alcoholic Stepfather, and the second one will probably be Backlash, ???, Nightmare, and Minion. (Need to figure out a MW VS to use. Or a MW flamethrower/fire-themed bot and put El Diablo on this team.)

This will be in addition to various bug fixes and rebalancing.

MikeNCR · « **Reply #1273 on:** April 17, 2013, 10:13:01 PM »

If you want middleweight vertical spinners, there's plenty to choose from. VD5, Professor Chaos, Heavy Metal Noise, Besta, Locust, Stewie, Terminal Velocity, Village Idiot, etc...

Bob looks great, btw.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #1274 on:** April 17, 2013, 10:21:48 PM »

Village Idiot is awesome and needs more love. I suggest making it. :D

Scrap Daddy · « **Reply #1275 on:** April 17, 2013, 11:46:22 PM »

Bob looks great.

ps. Sunshine Lollibot

Virus Bomb · « **Reply #1276 on:** April 18, 2013, 12:08:11 AM »

Bob looks great.

It would be cool to see VD5, Professor Chaos, Besta, or any other modern VS in DSL 3 IMO.

Heavy Metal Noise

Oh derp, I totally forgot I have that one.

I totally agree that all those other MW VS would be awesome, but for the sake of time I think HMN will be the MW on the VS team.

TheUnknownRobotics · « **Reply #1278 on:** August 08, 2013, 01:09:02 PM »

IS it out yet? If not, then I have to say..... I CAN'T WAIT!!!
I'm new to THIS website, but to robotics, not really. I really want to check out Razer, and any other new robots in the arena! Can't wait bro, can't wait!

HurricaneAndrew · « **Reply #1279 on:** August 08, 2013, 01:12:59 PM »

There is a beta release.

https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?topic=13584.0

Most of the AI bots don't work since the AI is still the 2.1 AI. Just download NAR AI 3 or another AI pack that has been made for DSL 3 Beta.
