I first made the beta burst battery ages ago, & I made some mistake & it turned out white.
the map name isnt the same as the one in the GMF.. you need to decompile, change and recompile

And then when I clicked Continue, the game crashed. =D
I had that before in my DSL.. umm I dont remember the crashing though... maybe the game thinks if you cant make it out the test arena without destroying your robot you shouldn't be playing :P

back reading is your friend  I said some pages ago if you delete "Alwaysvisible = True" in the text file the burst will be invisible in game play but still visible in the bot lab (like batteries)

some of you guys probably should have read the other thread before posting :P anyways I will move all the posts here since they were off topic The BBC must still have the rights to more series than just extreme 1 surely?
Or did they have to buy the rights back from channel 5?
In which case why didn't they buy them all?
interestingly enough I believe BBC never sold the merchandising rights to RW which was a contributing factor of its cancellation (new network couldn't make anymore money off it)
Well that's interesting (assuming it's true ofcourse).
Also, does anyone know who owns the arena nowadays, I heard that one of the teams bought it (storm 2 IIRC), but I do know there was some controversy around it, mentorn tried to block the deal I think.
I know a heap of the wood floor panels were sold as collectors items (seen some on ebay from time to time)
I dont know if they were old ones or the last ones from the end of S7 though

Strange, i'm even more confused now than when I started this thread
The original arena is gone forever, thanks to various things:
http://robotwars.wikia.com/wiki/Robot_Wars_Arena
The only bit of it I know still exists is the bit NFX (?) has.
The wierd thing is, I was at a RL event in October '09, way after the arena had been destroyed, and I asked Ed Hoppit specifically if they had the arena, and he said that they had.
another thing to throw in the mix is there is more then 1 arena....
there was the smaller original one then a larger one...
I know for a fact one's floor was divided up into many wooden sheets and sold as collectors items (as mentioned before) but dont know which one, then no doubt the other ended up scrapped
but that could have just been the set ? the arena itself would just be the inner low walls and base holding the floor... not all the polycarb, catchnets or crowsnest's...
anyway probably shoudl open a new arena discussion topic.
We also don't know what is meant by "set"
Gauntlet perhaps?
And it was ed hoppit who had apparently bought the arena to continue using it for robot combat, so if he owns it he wouldn't have found the "set" in the basement and thrown it out!
Maybe he owns a different arena?
But again if thats the case why haven't we heard more of it?
And I know i'm going off topic in my own thread joe, but it is rather puzzling
We should really have a what the  hapened to Robot Wars thread

Are you suggesting BFE ?
maybe... AAM is what all the hip kids do or maybe a game that has a whole pile of components with modified collision meshes to allow overlapping... but who has something like that *looks away*

Infinity Arena has a plane floor
thought as much though never used the arena myself :P I think that it also has a lot to do with luck. Sometimes my bots can outwedge Hot Wheels easily but later the same bots will struggle so these factors must play only a minor role in the "wedge war".
sometimes I dont know what your doing with the length of your robots :P but its not a case of longer the better (as some would wonder if thats what you think :P) but a long design is said to be better then having the drive close to the wedge.. but honestly I spend most of my time killing robots before they can get a wedge under mine so I dont test this stuff :P
