Modifications / CCAI Release & Competition

« on: August 12, 2009, 04:32:58 AM »

Click Here To Download CCAI 1.0

it is recommended that you apply this to a new dsl 2.1

patch for the background for those using a resolution that doesnt match up the menu

you can download it here, just specify the location of your DSL2.1 with CCAI and hit unzip and it will install itself into your copy of CCAI

http://filefactory.com/file/ah1a8eh/n/CCAI_1_1_Patch_exe

Full information on this AI pack can be found here


Now I guess your wondering about the competition ? well basically you could have the chance of winning the following prizes



these are replica components (the description was actually copy and pasted off a website selling these motors) and they are a bit faster then normal E-Tek motors but fear not as I have tested then and they dont glitch like crazy.

how do you win one of these you ask ?

basically I have hidden a message somewhere in the game and you have to locate it, it could be absolutely anywhere... so your not completely lost I have an image of where to find the message... only its completely warped

each day I will unwarp the image a little bit thus relieving the location a bit more, this will happen for up to 5 days until the full image is shown, the competition will run until someone can notify me of the messages location and tell me what it says

anyone can join in and there is no limit to guesses (but please dont spam with stabs in the dark) first person to find it gets themselves a prize that is legal in Clash Cubes 3

Final Clue:

its to late now.. you cant change bots after the splash is up, somebody is only able to do it as he sent bindings for a robot but not the wrong bot file

believe me when I say a lot of preparation work is going into CC3 but it wont be running as close as CC2 did to CC1.. I am going to space it our a bit more (I have another tournament idea I am going to do next)

CCAI is just around the corner so watch this space :-D

I am doing all the AI so I cant update the first page

Urjak, yeah I know you sent bindings but I just havent added you to the game yet as I ran out of time in my night.

ssg, yeah I have added yours with your bindings, NP there

sb, yes you did send the wrong MW robot and I did aiing for it lol but no problem RR should pass it on to me or you can just forward the pm from your outbox to me.

mine is likely going to loose first round.. it was more of a fun bot thats pretty to look at rather then combat effective

this site as mentioned above http://beetlebros.gametechmods.com/ra2techs.htm is your key to stock building it is full of usefull things to try out to improve your skills.

also DSA armour is the best thing yet...

Double-strength aluminum armor. This is a handy little glitch that gives you armor as light as aluminum, but stronger than steel.

To get it, simply don't apply any armor to your bot. Ignore the Armor menu. The armor the game gives your bot by default is just like aluminum, but it is twice as strong and it isn't shiny (the tell-tale sign of DS Al is to paint your bot black and rotate it around - it won't light up).

also dont forget you have 800kg of weight at your disposal so use as much as possible :-D

not really appropriate considering we were on the topic of Gyratory Reborn when Condor said it

Edit: not a whole lot longer to wait, I just have to AI Urjak's bots and Mine and then test & tweak everything

CC3 will be DSL MW so basically everything on the teams will be moved down (except the lightweights) and put in there making it a proper AI Pack format (LW, MW, HW, then 3 extras)

Other Tutorials / Wedge testing: What's under RA2's best wedges?

« on: August 11, 2009, 02:57:51 AM »

I think as click mentioned before it comes with placement too ... also you have to build a bot to back up an awesome wedge so I dont think luck will be on the table

Tournament Archives / Doomed Bots

« on: August 11, 2009, 02:53:50 AM »

Thats pretty lame IMO, unless it has to go in order of the row his bots are in, which isn't as lame. Also it doesn't have the same internal parts.

everything is the same except 3 robots have a second ddt next to the original but other then that its just what is on the ends that are different... I dont want to get in an argument over it as I respect you and your opinion but

it seems that the going way is that is someone makes something different from normal that can provide results it is considered cheap winning ? Sage got it from BBEANS 5 but really it was only another way of doing something ?

its is nearly imposable to build something that can beat anything it will encounter in its same weight class so why criticize something when theoretically it still has the odds of losing ?

anyway thats just my opinion
