Resetti, Phoenix Wright, R.O.B and Oregon Trail are by far the best. Maybe I should've entered my PacMan or Pyramid Head, at least they're based on the games.

I restate, by comparable I don't mean 'the same'. It's not replicas, it's knowing a bot that has a similarly functioning weapon system. But seem as though it confuses most people for reasons I don't know I might remove it.

It was in the first post, but the files seem to have gone down from Rapidshare. Nary may need to re-upload it.

I'm sure it's fine, I just don't think it'd be so great when AIed as a clamp.
2629
« on: August 03, 2014, 06:53:58 PM »
I have it set as open. It probably looks better closed but the grabbing isn't so great, so I have it set as a chomper :P

I'll try stuff out, but I imagine I'd have to use 60 degree flippermakers which I don't really want to do because of how they stick out. Other news, new top panel for dog.  10/10 better srimech, and cooler looking.

You don't have to find a comparable bot, you just have to know that type of weapon system was used on a real life bot - eg no beater walls on pistons. It goes hand-in-hand with the bots must not be more effective than they would be in real life rule.

Nah, he dropped them to me for testing and AI bots (some of these might be).

1) What's wrong with Ironforge? If you guys tell me I can think about changes.
2) What's wrong with having a comparable bot? It just means you can't have beater walls etc
2636
« on: August 03, 2014, 02:05:32 PM »
Reviving this, but switching stuff around a lot - no more judging panel (I will be judging HEAVILY though), and switching to Ironforge HW IRL - bots MAY NOT be more effective than real life counterparts, and must have a comparable real life bot.

It shouldn't. I should've probably explained - it's the Red Pyramid (Pyramid Head) helmet from Silent Hill 2 (the game not the movie thx), with the Overkill blade representing it's Great Knife.

Less effort went into this but it's something I wanted to do.  The Great Knife swings over the helmet.

I attempted a Pacman. It is ugly and won't be entered.

^ New members aren't exactly usually jumping into Stock or DSL-S - look at yourself, Chicken.
This list existed in most people's minds already. As 09 was saying to me yesterday, not a lot of 36hs are entered in tournaments as almost a 'gentleman's agreement'.
