Just a topic to share gamertags or whatever, or a place to discuss video games in general. Thought it would be useful to have a list of all the members usernames so we could add each other if we wanted.

Chatterbox / Concerned
« on: January 09, 2009, 01:42:19 PM »
I don't know why I'm discussing this here but just looking for input. On the 24th of December I  experienced a panic attack, rather severe. From that day I have become worried about everything that doesn't feel quite right with me. I become so concerned that it is a serious illness or disease that I get horrible anxiety. Today for instance, I have been having a dull to sharp pain in the chest, and I am so concerned that it is a Heart Attack. I'm only 22 though. :/

I think that most of the symptoms are just my anxiety but I have become so concerned that it is almost constant worry. Looking for any positive feedback, if any of you have experienced similar things or have any tips for the chest pain. :( I'm starting to become depressed and such, I don't know where this could go.

General Support / Vista + Nvidia + RA2 = No?
« on: December 19, 2008, 12:26:16 AM »
I have got my game working just fine on my older computer (windows XP), but it runs slower than I would like it to although its still playable. My newer computer has Vista and a Nvidia card but RA2 will not work for some reason. I can get to the team selection screen, but if I try to select one it freezes on me, same when I try to start a battle in exhibition. I have installed the correct patch but it hasn't helped at all, any ideas?

Tournament Archives / TGTT - The Grand Team Tournament (Ideas,Entering)
« on: December 14, 2008, 09:23:54 PM »
I have wanted to try a tournament for awhile, but I have been having computer issues. It will be a pretty simple tournament. There will be 8 teams of 2 people, each person will build a bot in a different weight class (LW,HW). It will be set up in 2 different brackets, for each round you win you get a certain amount of points for your team, as follows:

Lose any round: 0 Points
Win first round: 2 Points
Win second round: 4 Points
Win third round: 6 Points

At the end of all the battles, the points will be added up and the team with the most points wins. (Not sure what, might just skin some components or something) Basic rules:

- Stock (not realistic)
- No cheat components
- Regular combat arena without hazards
- Tournament cannot start until we get 16 people.
- I will choose the teams by random, you will decide with your teammates who builds what class though. You can decide on a team name if you wish. If you are matched with somebody you don't want to be with then talk to me.
- When I get 16  entrants and the teams announced, there will be 3 weeks to build bots and such, may be longer if required.
- I would like bots to be AI'd before hand, but if you can't I can do it.
- After 3 weeks, I will need some time to create a splash and get the bots all ready to go, but I'll post videos every other day unless something urgent comes up after that. (I do have time to finish this)

You can enter now, I will accept entrants until we reach 16. There cannot be more than 16. This is also to discuss the rules and such.

Current Entrants:
<><><><><><>
1. R1885
2. Sage
3. H@zm47
4. 70hemicuda (No Bot)
5. Naryar (No Bot)
6. R0B0SH4RK (No Bot)
7. System32
8. WhamettNuht (No Bot)
9. Reier
10. man manu (No Bot)
11. kill343gs (No Bot)
12. Scrap Daddy
13. infiniteinertia (No Bot)
14. Somebody
15. andrewm0304
16. Madiaba (No Bot)

Working on balancing the teams right now, now have 8 bots so it should work out.

Existing Games / Trackmania
« on: November 18, 2008, 02:40:32 PM »
Anybody play it by any chance? Its a huge online racing game, and its free. :O

I've been in rooms where there are 150+ people racing on the same track, the offline mode is great too because there is a huge track editor with hundreds of pieces to build creative tracks with. If anybody plays my username is just andrewm0304. It has great graphics as well... check it out if you like racing. ;) I'll post links to some of my tracks later.

Existing Games / Fantastic Contraption
« on: October 27, 2008, 05:05:09 PM »
Have any of you played this game?

http://fantasticcontraption.com/

Maybe we should try a little competition. Create an account and try level 20 (unpossible), then make sure it works and save your work. It will then give you a link. Lets see who comes up with the coolest design, post your links to your contraption here and we can vote! :)

Or you could just try the game, but a little competition would be fun.

:O I can't play right now, but somebody should try to upload a bot and see if it works.

Stock Showcases / andrewm0304's Bots
« on: August 05, 2008, 02:58:06 AM »
I just recently tried my hand at making some more bots, here are two from a new series of bots called Galaxy Bots, which will include the eight planets. I'll probably submit three of them for Gigafrosts new pack.

The first one is a simple LW, Earth:





The second UrAnUs, an okay MW, but it does have some extra room. It may not look like it, but it does fair damage even though the spikes are not facing forward much. I'm not sure if I should switch them to spiked clubs though...





Nothing exciting, but comments are welcome.

DSL TC Showcases / andrewm0304's DSL Bots
« on: July 11, 2008, 02:13:32 AM »
I haven't played DSL until I found out about BBEANS4 for some reason, so I just started to experiment with bot designs, and I think I came up with one that is alright. I'm not sure if the spikes and skirts around the bot will help though...

Just another bot I was working on, the thing on the top keeps it from getting inverted more than helping it when inverted though.
