if you can, use the in-game paint functions to make the skin a tad dirtier and rougher, makes the skin more realistic like that.

If the wheels don't clip then that's more or less IRL
clean up the skin though, the background color is so hideous with the decals. 1403

See, here's my problem with this kind of logic in IRL, though it would be useful, it would be like building a SHW and entering it into a HW tournament with the excuse: "If I had Titanium instead of Steel then the bot would be a HW so it's legal." or building a bot with some crazy steam powered system that is unreliable and excusing with "Oh it would work if I x and then I y but I can't x or y so yeah."

As for the wheels/drive motors, they're damn near perfect. The attachments for the wheels themselves aren't perfectly centered and that's probably the problem. ![]() ![]() ignore the cheatbot burst, I'm going to change that back. I dunno, it doesn't look as good as the previous ones.That might be because of the weight limit, doesn't allow for much decoration without sacrificing effectiveness. I had to make Plazmic redo the skin like 3 different times so for his troubles, I'm keeping the skin, ultimately keeping the chassis. In any other case I would've scrapped the bot and rebuilt it.I was going to make a flipper out of it but there aren't any burst motors that fit that gaprebuild it Anyway, I'm reverting it back into a wedged pusher and I'll make the center better looking. 1408

I was going to make a flipper out of it but there aren't any burst motors that fit that gap except cheatbot and I don't use cheatbot... Those wheels however I'll fix, I didn't notice how uneven they were.

Feast your eyes!
It's your demise! But please, don't cry EVERYONE DIES! I am Jester, a royal fool also a killing, destructive tool! I bring sorrow, destruction and fear, I eat your children, and digest your tears! ![]() So here's Jester. He has Ti3 armor, he's a pusher wedgebot type thing, and yeah not much to say here. He's a tough little bugger. ![]() ![]() Insides. I put most of the stuff up front to make the bot wedgier, it's probably not wedgier but it's a placebo effect leave me alone. Not the fastest bot out there but it gave plenty of LDAI's LW's a challenge (which plenty of them failed) oh, right, it's also IRL. I don't think I need to say that anymore but yeah I'll be doing almost entirely IRL now. 1410

Upon hearing this, the Wayward Beast growled with rage! "My rearward armament is insufficient to the tastes of The Mighty Naryar? Hephaestus, I command thee to procreate new rearward decorational armament!" Hephaestus scoffed. "He's your predicament, not mine." The Beast lunged, seizing Hephaestus into its grip, threatening him with its drill. "That was a command, not a suggestion!" And so, the Forge-god Hephaestus sighed, and created for the Beast, claws, to be attached to the rear. ![]() Those are made of Hexplates, matilda teeth and cutting teeth. ![]() I'm having fun writing these descriptions in a story-type format, leave me alone :P 1411

So I didn't get any screenshots of it but it's worth mentioning, because if I did get screenshots it would've been amazing but it happened so fast.
But anyway, I was doing a rumble in the RW arena, can't remember any of the other bots but I was using Assassiness and I was fighting the 8th circle (I play on LDAI) and it was rolling around on its ends and spikeballing and so, I went to go ram into it because its chassis was exposed, and I didn't notice the arena flipper there, and so as I'm charging at it, the arena flipper pops open, sending Assassiness into a midair barrel roll, and ends up hitting the bot right in the chassis, while in mid air. It was so perfect... I wish I could've screenshotted it because it looked so beautiful... 1414

I now pronounce thee manliest IRL builder, may thou be worthy of it's noble title.And this title, I shall fight for, and never allow to tarnish! I wasn't sure what to do with the rear, looking over it again I could play around with flipper extenders and see what that yields me. Simply awesome. Why don't you have an LDAI team yet???That's sort of what I was shooting for, and whenever I get my team done (got 1 more on the way and then I only need to build two more) they're yours if you want them. 1415
DSL TC Showcases / Re: Kossokei's DSL Bot Showcase« on: January 05, 2013, 03:09:46 AM »That looks really nice but invincible half sheet armour isn't really IRL, the skin on it looks like the sort of thing I'd expect from a heckboy novel aka awesome and really fitting!I think I know what you're talking about with the half sheet armor; That's actually 2 aluminium sheets attached to a skirt hinge; the top hexplate armor made the bottom look really... naked, I guess. Couldn't fill in the middle one because the hypno teeth are just a tad bit too big and it'll collide, and that'd really be unrealistic. The beater bars on the end of the aluminium skirts are just there... probably castors or something, I can't entirely remember why they're there. Thanks though! ![]() 1416

A wild Doubumplepost appeared out of the tall grass!
Doubumplepost: A DoublePost-Bump type pokemon. sorry I'm just trying to be creative with these Anyway... Woe to you, O' Earth and Sea... I present to thee, Wayward Beast! ![]() It's a HW drill type bot, from the depths of ![]() ![]() Stare, stare into its mouth if you have the willpower! Its fearsome drill is composed of 2 titanium extenders, 4 hypno teeth, 1 RAZOR and a piglet, and can/will drill its way through bedrock if need be! ![]() Gaze at its decorations, they bring you in! ![]() Ahh! Look at it! Look at its guts! Is it not amazing?! 4 ants, hexplate armor on a skirt hinge, NPCF's, Vlad wheels if you could not tell... It is truly a work of the Chaos Lords! 1417

Probably could be a little wider...
you could also try offroad wheels, they seem like they'd be closer to the wheels in the picture 1418

Chassis wedges are perfectly IRL, Skirt hinges when used like in (insert Final Destiny-ish bar spinner from LDAI here because I can't think of any of their names at the moment), it's fine, ![]() I'm done raging now. Sorry. 1419
DSL TC Showcases / Re: Naryar's DSL showcase - Guaranteed 95% manly« on: January 04, 2013, 05:01:22 PM »No, that's not his point.maybe the exposed wedges but bursts ? why should I put them inside ? it's not like they're exposed.Burst motors don't exist IRL (Image removed from quote.) Burst motors don't exist IRL, so it looks retarded when you put burst motors outside of the chassis instead of putting them inside, giving the illusion that there's (in your case) a piston mechanism inside. Other than that, PLEASE don't use faggoty door hinge wedges... they are IRL but the way that they are used are much different than the application that I see them in... say, LDAI, and it's just a really cheap way to make an overpowered IRL bot. You can make the case of a skirt hinge setup like Slamjob and Biohazard has their skirts set up, but skirt hinges and door hinges aren't applied like that 60% of the time I see them used, therefor not really IRL. 1420
