@Pwn - Lol, maybe, who knows? ;)
Would be great to do a collab though lol :P
@Joe - No problem, just a quick question :)
Say, if you wanna collab sometime, im useless at UI ;) lol
 
With the AI, im also hoping to introduce some replicas of real AWs, BWs & FW/HoWs.
So, look out for a few of them aswell ;)
Another thing i may need some help with is putting all the existing stock parts (or some of them) as cheatbot2 parts.
That way it restricts building to only light-weight parts.

Thanks all :)
@Joe - I think i used serges compiler :S
All my bots (so far) dont seem to havok much.
Quick question joe - do you have any AW suitable arenas?
I could do with some more places to test out the ais lol :P :/
@Jonzu - My finnish friend, Valo is correct for light isnt it? :S Lol I love the finnish language XD

None so far.
The only issue with components being too small i think is the lego wheel (Just drives weird :S)

Modifications / RA2 - Valo Version
« on: March 13, 2011, 05:50:17 AM »
Hi all ^_^
Hope no-ones forgotten about me lol :P
Sorry i havent really been posting much on here lately.
Just sorta left the forum for a while (found things where starting to become WAY too spammy and political!)
But, after having a dig around my comp, i found an old pack I was working on, and so I thought before I do leave for good, id finish this one off ^_^
I will of course be needing some help from some peeps, but tbh the easy stuff i can take care of :P
So, heres what the plan is:
RA2 - Valo Version
For the finish among all of you, you will of course know Valo means 'Light'.
So, basically (i appologise if this has been done already in my absence :S) my idea is for a pack that is speciafically designed for the lighter weights.
Yes, I know Joe was planning something similar, but I decided if no-ones going to do it - i might aswell!
The 3 weights im mainly focusing on are-
Ants
Beetles
and Hobbyweights/Feathers.
Heres what I have so far:

Components:
For the component side of things, i would like to achieve 3 things:
1 - To be able to combine both stock and some DSL parts together
2 - To make some stock and dsl parts smaller and lighter to suit the lighter weights
3 - To make some custom parts for the lighter weights
I have used some of my parts from the old RR AI pack for this one.
Some parts still need some work (Mainly the Lego Wheel).
I also forgot a component from that list - I made a micro Z-Tek motor.
The S-Tek Brushless motor :P (Can be seen on BEAR later on!)
 

AI Bots:
So, as you can hopefully see, I have done 4 AI teams so far.
Theres a few others but they are currently being skinned (or was being :P)
You can see the 3 different weights.
The AI teams will be realistic versions of the old stock bots.
Im hoping to make bots that will be fun to watch (like the real bots!) and that are also at the same time destructive (for some bots, anyway, the new BEAR certainly is desructive!)
I'll be working on all the stock-reworks.
Im also hoping to get some of you guys involved, with a few extra teams.
I'll let you guys loose when all the components are finished :P
 
What I will need major help with:
Theres a few other things id like to accomplish with the pack.
This time, i dont want it to be an add on, i want it to be a complete mod (Like backlash).
So, one of the things im hoping to achieve is to change the weights around a bit.
So, rather than the old LW, MW & HW cats, i will hopefully be changing it too:
Antweight - 125g (Think thats right? :S)
Beetle Weight - 175g
Hobby/Featherweight - 200g
So im hoping to basically chance the max weight allowed, the names of the weights and the max weight catergorys.
Hopefully someone can help me with this?
Another thing I may need help on is some of the scripts of the game.
For example, i'd like to have the Height Adjuster reach lower heights without BFE, maybe a bit more of a zoom in BotLab, and to introduce some new armour (Acetate, Cardboard, Paper, ect.)
And of course, one of the biggest things i'll need help with is the arenas.
I admit, I am completely useless at arenas!
If anyone is good at them and wouldnt mind helping, it would be highly appreciated! :)
Anyway, thats whats going on.
Im hoping to at least finish just 1 thing on this game before i do leave lol :P
All opinions, comments, and offered help is much appreciated :)
Thanks

Yeah, but we was quite lucky to have found a steel stockists near by who sold us 2 1m x 1m 2mm steel sheets for £20.
And the stuff is quite robust - its what I used to make the poker on Alejandro (And thats only slightly bent!)

And also the name of my dad :P
@Vertigo:
A MW is acctually perfect for my team because:
A) Its not too heavy, and my dad has back problems
B) Its smaller than a HW, and we have a VERY small garage
C) It would be more fun too see when facing Iron-Awe lol :P
And unfortunately hardox is too expensive :/

@Badnik: Why would I nickname it after my dad? :P
Anyway, people, here is probably my last update for this year!! O.O
I'll start robot by robot :P
 
Hunter Reloaded:
Yes I went with Reloaded :P
Anyway, im sure some of you know what design I may be going after, but last night I had an ipiphany ;)
Since I want to try and make HR strong enough to take on the spinners at the UK FW Champs, I had one idea that I could do to use their power against them.
La Machine ;)
Yep, basically, a scoop attachment at the front, then when the fight starts, just run at the opponent, and hopefully flip them out. Simples.
And hopefully the rounded design of the scoop should add some strengh behind it, which will be important if my opponent reaches full speed.
Then I can jus run at them, hopefully topple them a bit and let physics take its toll lol :P
As for weapon without scoop, Im adding spike to the front (just if I want a little drive around in the arena during a fight lol :P)
Or (depending on weight) a little spinning drum at the front ;) (bit like tornado lol)
 
Alejandro:
Nearly done - all I pretty much need to do is get the new drill motor in (or find a drill motor that wont drain all of the current when firing :/ )
I also want to strenghen the front wedge up by adding some steel support underneath.
I also have an idea for a fairly cool paint job :)
 
Artemis:
Well, shes now got to go to D3.
The new one is planned to be a bit like Chaos 2, so that should hopefully be effective lol :P
 
Crime Scene:
I will hopefully make a start soon.
Basically, im planning a bot like RC Doorstop (Steel Conflict I think :S)
 
PropellANT:
Well, atm he's sitting in a freezing cold garage lol :P
He's ready for the new year :D
 
TeeTh:
He's made a start.
ATM we have a frame with motors and crusher servo.
Dunno when he'll be finished but i'll be sure to keep you posted lol :P
Im quite excited about this ant, should be interesting :)
 
And, depending on how things go - robot and cost wise, I do have an idea for a MW ;)
An pnumatic axebot called HeadShot :P
But I first have 4 FWs and an AW to finish off :P
Should be fun when the MW, 4 FWs and 2 AWs are done - getting everything in the car will be like a game of Tetris more than ever hehe :P
Anyway, theres the update, and hopefully the next one will be in 2011! :D

« on: November 27, 2010, 03:25:07 AM »
yay I got the one award I hoped I would achieve  :gawe:

Hunter as best replica is... (no offense to wham) a bit of a kick in the face to other guys who put in a lot more effort (sonny, 123, dragon or mike) given it was only a wedge box which he could take perfect photos to make skinning easy...

but still congrats to all...

Well you know what they say, simplicity is the best way forward lol :P
