Cheap brands are cheap for a reason after all.  They are made to barely work out of the box, and not intended for customization. 

Which brings me to the next point?

Any manufacture recommendations? By dirt cheap I mean cutting out the install costs the price is a significant smaller amount I want to maintain quality of anything I stick in my computer..

Also, I don't believe this is the doom of stock.

Many of you are looking at the wrong side of the "Stock Apocalypse"..

As I explained to Sage its this half baked messy situation we have now that could drive players away..

Once you have a clean simple cut rules we can go on peacefully with our lives again.. we basically have to come together as a community and make a simple agreement about it.

As it stands now Sage and Scrap can technically use it in existing rule sets as its not listed as an outlawed glitch and fits within the "All building to be done in the botlab"

Now obviously tournaments can make up their own personal rulesets around it but general building standards/ rules and the case if nothing is specified (or forgotten to add) its all up in the air.. Same with the 140cm extender.. tournaments make specific comments about it (becasue we never came to a yes or no agreement)

Why I mention this is remember Sage and I slipped in the 140cm extender in our winning BOTM? no rules prevented it as it fitted within the ruleset of AI / Hidden parts unless specified otherwise.. now its not a big deal but something like limitless stacking is.

Fun bit of trivia about mine

"Nitro Freak" is the name of a real life Nitro Funnycar in Australia


If I didnt start an hour before the deadline I would have skinned the components..

Ok so im getting sick of low end gaming, I run games through

http://canyourunit.com/

And my computer meets the games I want to play in all departments except graphics card.

It doesnt take an expert to figure out this is due to the fact I have no Graphics card :P Only the onboard graphics chipset.

Now I was going to take this to a computer store empty my wallet and walk out poor with a new graphics card, but I found then dirt cheap and brand new on eBay.. the catch.. I have to DIY install.

Now I am pretty sure I know how to do it but I need to know from some guru's.. Does the on-board stuff cause problems? I mean like.. if I was just upgrading my card, you uninstall the driver, pull the card out, stick the new one in, install the driver and your good to go..

How do you do it with onboard? do you need to remove anything or if there a free sport asking for something to be plugged in..

He obviously has found the vid, as I said, he can see deleted posts

That wouldn't make a difference he obviously deleted the video off his youtube account..

I shall preserve the secret though..  ;)

There was a vid Scrap posted just before that partially showed how it was done and partially showed proof it worked

Then it disappeared from this thread..

Folder "Opponent Gear" has the Emergancy wedge inside it

1357
ANYWAY....it is there and is not disallowed, so who is to know if it is AAM, or axle glitch!

I AAM when I KNOW it can be done effee glitch (snapper loading), because it saves time.

Didnt you just answer yourself there?

@Joe
Yes I get that, but it is still stock but just a patched version. Stock showcase should be split in 2 sections if this would happen to go into effect though. Perhaps "RA2:Developer Release" and "RA2 Stock: GTM Release"

I wouldnt want the "NarAI effect" when the 2 got jumbled up all the time..

I started building it as Robot Arena 2 - Ultimate Edition (or simply branded "Ultimate" for short) and it had stock parts, AI parts, etc included and marked so people knew what could be used in rule sets along with other bits and pieces and an updated UI.. (similar to the old just a bit more modernized) Also as previous mentioned I wanted to add ACAMS AP mods..
