General Support / Re: Robot Arena 2 is lagging badly?

I don't know why this could be happening (you could always try a fresh install of RA2) however I do know that the 'graphics' setting actually doesn't really do anything to my knowledge :P

Well, I downloaded it. From what I can tell, you've put a lot of effort into it, however there are some striking issues.
1) The music and images seem to be to your taste rather than anybody else's, personally I really wasn't into it.
2) The music itself clashed over all the menus, and was all copyrighted.
3) At the end of the day it does just appear to be a mix of components and ai with random music/ui that you've mainly stolen. But it does show how much effort you can put into it, and I'm sure it could do fairly well with adjustments...




EDIT: Also, it crashes whenever I try to load Crasp Drone 2, a normal DSL2 bot.

I think you probably answered your own question about why it's happening when you said you got a ton of addons :P I imagine your game is getting very messed up. I think your issue is probably with the AIs - if I were you, start again with a clean copy but only install 1 AI pack, and make sure that the pack doesn't conflict with your other stuff - for example, don't download a pack meant for DSL when you don't have the DSL components etc

I imagine a few of you have tried this already, an f2p 3rd person shooter with awesome weapon customization that's just come out of beta.
Tried it? What's your setup?
I'm still trying out a few things but currently use a Rifle with the Pyro payload and a Beam with the Heal payload and a couple of scope/magazine changes on each :D

Oh my...

Don't use piglets for drive, use the blue control board, use multi-extenders instead of baseplate anchors, don't use ballast, I wouldn't use the rulers like that, if it needs balancing you'd be better off making the chassis much wider and Y connectors suck. Just put the motors on 2 separate multi-extenders.

You're still retarted for going 50 mph in the snow. If your speed meter is broken, why aren't you being cautious? I remember you bitchin at Britfags cause they don't use winter tires and then you list one of your reasons as that you had a summer tire on. When Andy went into a ditch, you said lol americans can't drive even after he said the road was covered in ice, then you go and list ice on the road as one of your reasons. If it's too dark, did your brights on? That reason tolerable though. And so yes, there were reasons but you can't be serious that every time you've acted like every other country can't drive and that Finns get the biggest boners while sitting down and turning a wheel, there wasn't reasons backing up those accidents aswell.
This is what they call Karma...

All I have to do is pay 300e to my friend and then we can just laugh at this accident.


"HAH I CAN'T DRIVE HAH"

The lack of responsibility you're taking over your own list is phenomenally low, when you're the guy that messed it up and expect everyone else to fix it.

Why hello there GTM
I am very pleased to announce that Thyrus has contacted me with regards to finishing this tournament...
Of course, I accepted.
This was a highly anticipated tournament in the eyes of many and I am very glad Thy has decided to finish it off.
It is important to note that he will not gain a host point for this tournament, or regain a previously lost point.

And so, with that, I'll leave you in Thyrus's capable hands with more updates as and when they happen :D

I'm going to be sharing a house with another GTMer in September, terrifying stuff.
Which one? I'll go out on a limb and guess Craig.



You'd be right but...

it's all "I love you" week one then break up the next month. Plus the dreaded "Facebook relationship" is a high possibility.

I imagine, from the look of the wheels underneath, that it was designed (all that time ago, I still remember seeing Sphere and Atilla for the first time hah) to tilt forward and be a wedge from that angle, tilting the back up.

Jonzu you silly goose. You copy pasted that list I posted, which I said was my list of people who are (in my opinion) inactive - didn't you realise you were deleting yourself? :P

Ok, this is probably a stupid idea, but I'm gonna post it anyway.

I was thinking of doing my own tournament because why the hell not, and decided to plan it out in a similar vein to Craaig's Robot Wars 2005 idea, by basically building a successor to a competing robot, but this time in either Robot Wars and/or Battlebots.

However, your choices of robot to build is limited, in that the competing robot must have been completely trashed up and destroyed in their final appearance, hence the new entry is an 'Orphan'.



RULES
- DSL 2.1
-Heavyweight/HW (Up to 800.0kg)
- IRL
- WhamettNuht's Robot Wars 2013 AI Pack Arena
- 3 minute matches
- No NARmour
- No AAM, NCR glitch, Trov Glitch, etc
- You are allowed to BFE the chassis height, but no other BFE allowed.
- You cannot be entered until a bot is received and accepted.
- You may upgrade a robot any number of times until signups close.
- I will AI your robot for you, if you don't know how. However, don't complain if I don't do it right, I only have basic AI skills.

BATTLES
- 16 Robots, in Robot Wars Series 3 format. Single Elimination
- 8 1v1 fights in round 1, then 4 fights, etc.
- 1 Havok restart, 2nd time eliminated
- There will be grudge matche requests and possibly a rumble (time permitting) after the tournament.

CHEATBOT2

Here is my entry, Son Of Robogeddon:



And so, to signups! The rules above may not change. You have 3 months. Enjoy! :)

It's funny. Before this post was made I was considering entering a axe/hammer robot into the Swords of Glory tourny. Unfortantley, it is indeed difficult to make something using an axe as it will probably not be as powerful as something like a shell spinner or flipper which most robots will probably be. I mean, the only robot I recall from a major tourny with a hammer was Smashbox from BBeans 2. (I can't properly remember the robot and only RECALL it being a hammer.)


Implying you're entering an IRL tournament with the intention of making something effective. Make an axe/hammer. They're fun.

A lot of the guys on there are now inactive, and some (eg Deinemutter7 - now Elementos) are now active. Just so you know.

As a quick suggestion, could we change the Memberinfo template so that avatar can be inputted with an url instead of automatically being set to Serge's site, since he has removed the gtm avatar functionality?
