I like Ian's idea. The seperate bot type section may be tricky due to the fact that it seems like there's been several new bot types pop up in DSL over the past year or so. Like we have FSNS, TRFBD, flail rammers, etc. Then there would have to be a category for hybrids too.

There are several stock AI packs and there has never been a complaint.

It's the first time I handled the new image uploader and the pics show up quite small. What size should I choose? 800x600?


They're just preview thumbnails. The old image uploader is working again now, though.

This show reminds me of a PS1 game I used to have called Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots Arena.  Was one of my favorite games and had it until one day I was playing it on my PS2 and my klutz of a kid sister knocked my PS2 off the shelf it was on and as a result ruined the disc.

They also had a toy line released alongside with the game.  I remember having X-Cavator and another robot by the name of Head Case.


If I'm remembering right, that game is hecka rare. As in, worth some green to collectors.

You may not, but the rest of us are sick of waiting for your stubborn ass to start this.

(Image removed from quote.)

 Use the GTM image uploader Trov and I linked then copy the link into your post (most people do this anyway).

How can you assume that? I don't do it like that because it's more hassle.

Either way, it would be nice if it were fixed.

We need that plugin that makes it so images don't show up in quote until you click the link again too.

I can't hardly even see the picture. And when I click the picture, it goes to postimage uploader.

Chatterbox / How do you get money?
« on: March 20, 2013, 09:18:49 AM »
Where do you work or how do you acquire money in other ways?

I work at a little sh**hole refractories plant. I work from 7AM to noon Monday through Friday. The pay isn't great, but the health insurance is awesome.

I also gather scrap metal occasionally for a few extra bucks here and there. You can make a good amount of cash if you sort it first instead of just selling it all as shredder scrap.

Oh, and the occasional sexual favor.

But I bought "Monster Jam" from steam today. Physics are horrible, and the game is just unrealistic, sadly.

Yeah, it's rather disappointing.

About Ian's bot... I talked to Jonzu on Skype and he says that the robot was merely a clone. He built it himself and submitted it for the tournament.

I do admit that I used a bot that was built by Somebody as a base for a bot I recently showcased. I gave Somebody full credit for any part of the bot that he built. The only reason I did it was to test a theory I had about a weapon setup, but I don't build in stock anymore and I cannot stack to save my life. The bot was never entered into a tournament and the bot file will most likely be lost at some point anyway.

As far as direct bot file copying, it has never happened, but if it did happen, the builder would most likely lose all credibility and respect from the entire community. So they would gain nothing.


Other than that, I don't have anything to say about this because frankly, I don't care either way.

I'm with Ian on the boxing tournament. It sounds like an awesome idea. Maybe it could be our version of RCL.

It's called junkmail. Everyone gets sh** like that. Especially when you've used that email to sign up for anything.

It's not a transparent layer, but to make the effect you screenshot the insides of the bot top-down and map it to the skin template. Then you put semi-transparent layers on top of it.
I know that but when I do it it just looks like I didn't put armor on top.

Set the opacity of the white layer lower.

Also I'm not sure if taking her home would've done any good because the engine was too badly damaged to repair it. 



You could have always found a different motor. They're not that expensive these days.

if youre trying to pause and find some sort of controls screen you should probably try P. in 95% of pc games the pause button is either ESC or P.

To my knowledge, there is no pause. It isn't needed. You just stop the vehicle.

If you want to change maps or whatever, you just hover the mouse in the upper left corner of the screen and a toolbar will appear.
