Discussion / Brainstorm!!!(Mountain climb plateau level)

« on: October 23, 2004, 10:01:56 PM »

I have thought of an awesome twist for DSL 1.2 or even for modders to do, make a level for hill climbing like in real life.  This would allow us to make challenging bots with suspension and mutliple wheel drive and drag bars etc.  It would be cool, then there could be a platform at the top to fight.  The arena would like this:

                                               TOP

                                           __ _______
                                         /                   \
                                    __/                      \__
                                   |                               |
                                  /                                 \
                                /                                     \
                          ^^^                                      ^^^
                        /                                                     \
                    ^/                     BOTTOM                       \^
  Bot#2       /                                                                 \         Bot#1
--------------                                                                    ----------------


This 2d model is accurate to the fact that i want there to hills only on the two sides, an nowehre else, i want the opposite edges that the bots are on to be nothing.  There needs to be high walls on the outside of this level for sure though.

This has enormous potential, and if I had the know how I would do it myself, I would want this to be extremely challenging but not unrealistic.   There would be atleast three stages of difficulty on the mountain.  The person who got there first could guard the side the other is coming up on.

PM me, email me or add me to MSN or... even feel free to post in this thread(lol)

If anyone is willing to take my proposal seriously, I would be thrilled as I am a huge 4x4 and offroading fan.  It adds a totally new element to the game and this could become big online as well.

I would not want there to be points for staying on the top the longest as I want it to be a brawl all over.  Any questions please post.

Let me know what you all think,

Thanks,

DSL TC Showcases / IVIUSTANG's Bots

It is pretty evil lol  :evil:

But here is my friendly bot lol, it is useless but can go full throttle on mars without leaving the ground.  It may even be the first bot with suspension.  

Called....  "All Terrain Train"

This is my first version of this bot, but expect more!!!

General Support / a question about crashing

"1024 RAM only costs $1,024,000 "


your kidding, its only like $200 here, btw your overlooking the fact that RA2 has always been unstable and has crashed before and after events, even for me.  I think it is mostly game related, nothign to do with comp or the mod.  But a good comp won't stop crashes, but will increase performance substantialy.

Discussion / Has the Patch improved DSL?

« on: October 15, 2004, 04:50:04 PM »

Generally I feel the patch has helped in all aspects except for engine speed and the DSL bars now have way less HP than youd expect from a solid iron bar.  Totally wrecked an extreme bot I made.  But great job for the most part.
