Use wedges (skirts on hinges) if you want some protection against flippers.
But this is a poker (piston bot), and the main issue is if you fire your pistons, they can flip the hammers, and your bot too.

I just sent it.
Inf tweak it if you want. And I was lazy, I didn't put the RAPTOR decal and the claws, just the red steel paint job.

Sorry for the double post, but I needed to show it. Inf here's my first Raptor replica:  Two blacks (didn't stacked anything), DSA. Four snowplows (the lower two are attached to the snappers, one plow for each snapper). It has a total of 8 axes going through the snowplows, as a ram hybrid (more than a pusher here) Both of the hammers have 4 razors. The axe-pointy tip duo on the side is the same on the other side, supposed to be an active defense against HS's. Tell me if it suits you, if not i will try to make it better.

XP for ever.
I don't know why Microsoft produced some crap like Vista. They should focus on Windows XP corrections/patches, and eventually release a SP3.

Really nice for a first bot. Few empty space, that's good.
What are the skirts on axles for, besides sticking to the name?
EDIT: if you find a good upgrade (perhaps like putting a front wedge, and titanium is more efficient than steel) you could enter Mutant Dragonfly 3 in RAW.

-color of character/components Character is entirely bright red. -gender Male -hair style Bald (no body hair at all, being nearly a reptile) -voice type Deep, low-pitched, kind of low roar -depth (muscle? - slim? - obese?)

Wears a blood-red leather apron. Most common headgear is his liked welder's mask. Has a good bunch of accessories. Metalworking tools (hammer, pincers, hand drills, metal saw), a blowtorch, and several dangerous chemicals such as gunpowder (it can burn too) or even thermite., EDIT: sadly don't have the time to finish now, will finish it tomorrow, and I will finish the drawing too.

Ahem.
Read-Only is an option that you can generally tag/untag in the Properties window (in the right click menu)
Read only files are files that can just be read/used by your computer, but not modified.
A lot of RA2 files are read only, including the Components and AI folders.

Well then rebuild the chassis, i don't know...
Ah, and one last advice: you could already know that, but titanium is the better armor, I mean it has the best armor/weight ratio. Then plastic, steel and finally the worst metal ever, aluminium...
EDIT: ah, and it would be cool if you'll compete in RAW. It's DSL HW.

Use the Gametechmods image uploader (link to it at the homepage)
About your bot:
-AAARGH empty space!
-If I'm not misunderstood, it has 4 long black batts under the disc: then, the ant batt is useless. You have enough power with 4 long batts.
-Cheatbot2 (stock) control board! Use only the rectangular blue CB, or the tiny one.
-These wheelguards are pretty frail and heavy... I would suggest using steel skirts.
-By the way, the anchor with 5 attachment points is heavy, very heavy, and you just need one attachment point . Use the baseplate extender red-and-black thing you just attached to the 5-AP anchor, way lighter.
-Use grippier (like Vladiator) wheels, because this thing is really slow. Unless you don't want a faster bot of course.
-The weapon motor is fine, but your bot has very few weapons for a MW. Add more teeth on that disc or else they'll fall easily and your bot will be useless..
Ah, and of course have a look at the other showcases.

Oooh, DOAM wedges... AND a good bunch of empty space.
There is gonna be a lot of VS in the tourney for sure.

Yeah, Sage is running out of competitors...
..if you are a decent DSL builder, of course.
EDIT: Robo, you better watch out. I think you know the ground clearance of a hypno wheel with NPC's (left and right) sticked to the baseplate?
EDIT2: But if you win, because I know your wedges are good, HazCon could hopefully tear the loser's bracket.
EDIT3: I agree with you on at least one thing: Ham-mer Sandwich can't beat DOAM.

Hmmm
Naryar builds somewhat unstable bots (I will send a very fast ram, a VS, and a SnS)

Getting DSL was a PitA, but it's really worth it. Especially if you like realistic bots.
If you got a torrented version of RA2 like me, get the download version of DSL, I think.
It crashes occasionally, or lags, but otherwise works fine.
EDIT: Did you remove the "read only" of all of your RA2 files/folders? It helped for me.

Great work. I wanted a flame hazard in the Combat Arena.

You mean WindowBlinds?
Hey, the same thing happened to me.
I just think it's because the company are greedy morons and the thing won't work.
I gave up long ago.

insulting one of ACAMS threads... Saying that when you annoyed ACAMS more than me? He's not Megabyte or TDS, that said.
