Discussion / How happy were you. . .let EMERGENCY know who it's daddy was?

Now I know most of you folks are all elite now and hardly play stock, but do you remember EMERGENCY?

That bot nearly put me in a straitjacket, as it was like a magnet stuck to yo uand just repeatedly tossed you across the arena. I eventually built a bot for the sole purpose of beating the sh!t out of it. It was just a big purple square, with 6 wheel drive and not one, but TWO spiked-club hammers driven by burst motors, and it had a formidable array of spikes across the front. I christened it, "Tough Proposition". I would have made it even larger but I reached the games weight limit. I managed to get that blasted EMERGENCY in it's side and drove it into a wall, and then proceeded to beat the daylights out of it. It got away, and came at me with those dreaded flippers but, by a stroke of luck, I managed to drive into it head-on and trapped it's flippers in the upwards position. Then I let my hammers loose again and gleefully watched as I smashed it's flippers off. I was so happy that it was quite frightening and almost disturbing.

General Support / Noob questions

Hey folks. I've only recently discovered Robot Arena 2 and it's pretty awesome. Took me all the way back to my memories of Robot Wars as a kid.

Now, I've downloaded a whole host of mods, but  I can't get them to work. As an example, I downloaded a pack of real Robot Wars bots but I can't use them. When I go in to the game and go to the workshop area and go to "Import Bot", I can see them there but when I click on one of them to access it, the game quits out and asks to send an error report. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
