I cant download the patch due to error 1628: Can't complete installation. Thats all it says. Possibly because I already have version V1.2? I remember something about needing to have a CD in the drive in order for the patch to work...I think download version users have to put a disc in the drive to install the patch (any old disc).

Battlebots had "better" robots than robot wars did. Robot wars had more "creative" robots than battlebots did. Some Robot Wars bots competed in BattleBots, and they didn't as good as they did in Robot Wars. Hypnodisk was one of the robots that caused the most damage in RW, but that was only in the first few seasons when all the other robots had poor protection. In comparison to BB, the robots in robot wars were far less destructive.
What do you mean ""better" robots"? Robot Wars had the most powerful heavy weight flippers in the world. Take WBC and Gravity for example. And don't forget RW had some nifty rammers and spinners.
I'll have to disagree with you one the flipper thing...The matador=THE most powerful heavyweight flipper.

I could have sworn there was someone on AceUplink a few years ago that had the developer tools because he worked on the game. I can't remember his name right now, and he's been gone for quite a while. Good ol' Blake (Dummy)? If so, I think he made those tools himself, but he did work on the game I believe. @ Kadz, I kinda miss AU as well, although it was a breeding ground for tyranny and dictatorships...but other than that it was a great place.

I found by watching RW and BB numerous times each that although I am American, I think british robots (the good ones) are generaly more creative and more effective than American robots...I'll make a comparasin now.
Heavyweight 2 time champ Biohazard, nice design...low profile.
Razer, much cooler looking, 9 ton crusher...winner in my opinion.

if you want crazy realism, build a replica of an airplain Tx for the controller, pistol grip could work as well, but there is less functionality for some stuff.

That was assuming I would be able to make the downloaded version... but almost nobody replied to my thread, and the people I've contacted said they'd do it but are taking a ridiculously long time to get the info to me.
If I don't get that UI info within a few days then I'll just not make a downloaded version! I was almost done with the beta report and then I had to go away for a freaking week in the city (no RA2 here)...I'm coming back on Monday, and then I'll finish that report and send it out.

there is a chain saw on rfshq Ok, Dude...Please don't bump topics unless you have something very important to say. The last post in this topic was from 1 year ago. Just saying. and yes, there is a Chainsaw on rfshq...The late but great Lu-Tze made one that didn't really work too well, but it's as close to a chainsaw as any modder has ever come.

Will 2.0 sopport 600 series nVidia cards? I have one. I'm assuming if the old version of RA2 does, this will.

Wow, nice CAD! I see you added some more aluminum for the weapon support...should be a lot stronger now.

This isn't a sneak peek to DSL-TC 2.0 but I wanted to give you something before you get totally bored. I AI'ed my Spike Beetle II and it isn't as good fighter as when I'm driving it but it is surprisingly mean opponent even it looks quite dumb when it is moving. You have to choose carefully your bot against it.
Well... that wasn't much AI'ing, copy and paste few stuffs and then wrote few lines text but still.
So here's the thing. It's a video of Spike Beetles fighting each other. Original Spike Beetle got bit beaten up but it can easily win 2x Spike Beetle IIs against it.
And talk about lack of sparks... :shock: Here you some sparks. :twisted:

You need a clean copy of the RA2 and install the patch 1.20 into it and after that you'll be able to install the DSL 1.2 into it. But remember to install the DSL mod to different folder and then drag and drop all the dsl things from it to RA2 folder and then overwrite them.
yea i know that
but where i get the 1.20 version :?:
EDIT: forget it i found it but i have to wait for finish the download of ra2
cuz my brother eliminated it :P
EDIT2: isnt another way?!
Ok first thing, you already asked this question on another topic, don't do that, please. Second thing, why would you want another way? you downloaded the patch, and your bro deleted your RA2, you are downloading a new one. so what's the problem, you have all you need. Here's a bit of advice I usualy give to newbies who start out on the wrong side of tippical forum edicut. ALWAYS READ TOPICS AND FIND ANSWERS BEFORE YOU START ASKING QUESTIONS...DON'T BUMP TOPICS FROM LAST YEAR AND ASK A QUESTION THAT IS KIND OF LIKE WHAT THE TOPIC WAS ABOUT. I hope you find this informative and not take this the wrong way...I want to help you.

I thought it was ok to bump a thread provided you had something that contributed to the discussion. *sing* You may be right...I may be crazy...but it just might be a looonatic you're looking for...*

Ok so I didn't look at the date but still it was the top topic that day so technicly not a bump... plus isn't a bump more like when you post in a topic a month or two old and pop it to the top of the page wehen it is ont the 50th or something? The last post was from may...that's almost 2 months ago...and it was like the 5th or 6th one down (this forum isn't really that active, so, there can be some posts that are months old, but still close to the top. I'm just advising you not to do that, people can get more pissed at you than I did.

Point.
Weedy's taking "pure stock" to the extreme of "Can this be built in real life?" Answer: no. Ain't no way in real life to overlap motors or put one inside another.
On the other hand, because it IS a game, there is ALWAYS going to be some "cheating" involved with the parts. Consider a simple flipper. You can build a box and put a motor in it, and use an extender that goes through the sidewall of the chassis to the flipper - in real life, you'd have to cut a slot or some kind of hole for the extender to go through. A spinner would need to have a slot cut all the way around the edge, or at the very least have a hole on top for the motor shaft to poke through. Technically, there's already a fair bit of "legal cheating" going on since all of these things are generally accepted as part of the game.
Bottom line is: Pure stock? No. Game stock? Yes. Well, said my friend. but stock is usualy defined as without the use of custom components, and nothing else. I have no idea why Mr. Weedy thought that stock meant relistic, because it doesn't...Those bots can't be made in real life, and as Spyguy over here said, practically everything can't be made in real life with RA2...It's not supposed to be...It's nice to try to make things more realistic, but if you don't, there's no penalty for it. Those bots are stock, end of story.

ur joking right? a combo of those two? most bots don't do well on the mars arena and the obstical course is too laggy and half of it is messed up (ie: fall through "solid" walkway to an imposibal escape...) But I had that idea... somewhere here... look for it in the arena request or ideas thread or uh the dsl 2.0 preveiw topic... Bump? you havn't learned have you Tygron? I learned not to bump topics like a month after I joined a forum. knock it off. EDIT: Maybe I exagerated a little, it's nearly 2 months old, but still a bump none the less.

Odd ..... i have all those packs, yet the game still crashes whenever I try to load Snow Burst. I'll go through everything again and make sure I'm not missing anything.
hmmm....let's see. I could have been a dumbass and left the anti balasts in there (cherry flavored's anti balast)...and I might have used Alphasim's Steel square extender...I don't think that I did, but you might as well try.
ah crap that was me...will someone turn guest posting off? lol.
