Razer no idea. But the other 2 are probably what I said about bindings - if they start facing backwards, it's because they were built backwards and the 'nose' value in the bindings has to be changed.

There's more than likely clashes between the DSL and RW Razer and WBC - sounds like a components clash for Razer and a bindings clash for WBC.
For example, if you've still got the DSL WBC bindings in the file with the new one, whichever the game finds first will be used for both bots, regardless of how (or what way round) they're built.
With Razer it could be edited components using the same name. The claw's attachment point could've changed for example to beach it like that.

Looks alright. Can't imagine it spins all that fast though with all those heavy hammers on the 1 motor? Could be wrong though. And yeah, those stabilizers should probably be strengthened.

Yeah, I've never seen 1 single chavvy guy wearing skinnies. I've seen hipster-y/cool/whatever guys but never chavs. Iunno maybe the definition of chav has also changed from the old days of Burberry and tracksuits to essentially hipsters.

I'm not sure that makes them 'chavvy' though :P
Besides, fitting jeans are normal jeans. I have trouble finding decent skinnys/slims.

Fitting and/or skinny jeans are SO comfortable. It's like another layer of skin rather than pulling massive fabric-y tubes around with your legs :P
Also show some leg? What the hell do you mean? Like, the shape!? :')

I think skinny jeans look chavvy

Wow, if this is common consensus, things have sure changed since 2006 when I started wearing them and the only place a guy could get them was the alternative/emo shops.

General Support / Re: Where are the hex plates and skirt hinge located?

« on: October 13, 2014, 03:12:43 PM »

Thanks for the constructive post KW...

Hex plates, just get them out of DSL I would guess. As for the skirt hinge burst, Sonny might be using the one Wham made many years ago. Your best bet is to make a direct copy of the skirt hinge but upping the values in the text file to that of the judge burst or something (the skirt hinge is actually a super weak/slow burst) and renaming it to whatever Sonny has his set at, unless his replaces the original, in which case just change the values.

I can cross my legs in skinny jeans.

With or without losing circulation in your legs?

Without. Maybe my legs are magical. I sit in the most awkward ways pretty much all the time and I'm fine.
