Honestly, u seem to have a lot of empty space on pops v2 (more than what is needed) and most good(if not all) pop ups have wedges on snapper motors

 
With the chassis wedge being such a sharp angle, it kind ofmakes it hard to put anything inside the wedged area.

Off-Topic Discussion / Adobe CS3
« on: June 16, 2009, 04:05:35 PM »
Does anyone know where I can get Adobe CS4 or even CS3 for around $300.
 
I might even settle for CS2, so if you know where to get it for around $300 let me know.
 
I know, I'm crazy for thinking I'll find it this cheap, but just seeing if you guys might know something I don't.

Discussion / Custom AI Packs
« on: June 16, 2009, 03:55:54 PM »
I know this sounds similar to what LRA2 was asking, but it's really not.
 
How do you write the .txt for a custom AI pack? I want to take the best robots out of each AI pack I have and combine them into a single pack. So how do I go about it?
 
By the way, I'm not going to put it on the forum. So if anyone thinks that I'm going to try to post it as my own pack, Im not. I just want it for personal use.

Anyone have a link to a stock tournament that they would suggest?
 
I have looked on the Tournaments forum, but it seems all the stock tournaments' entry periods are up.

But, you've been getting better. I strongly suggest you download Starcore v1.0 if you haven't already. It's quite hard at first, but having tougher opponents really helps you improve.

I already have Starcore v3.0.
 
And tankcat... yes you have made that clear and I have been there.

I'm really starting to get the feeling that I am one of the oldest people here.

So am I right about this?

Hmm... you may be right actually. If there are any tabletop or king of the hill tournaments, and if i could get someone who knows what they're doing to AI it, it might still have a good chance.

At first glance I thought Tenderizer was a re-made version of the DSL S3.
 
And even though you say it's too powerful, I love the cage-type-thing on Bulldozer :D

I figured I'd catch alot of crap over the cage on it. It is a waste of weight after all.
 
Quote from: Pwnator;44130
Bulldozer isn't that much of a failure. This time, put the servos on linear actuators so it can life while scooping. If it's too fast, swap a pair of motors for axles instead.[/COLOR]

Tenderizer feels like the old Alien Queen. XD
[/COLOR]

The only problem with that is, if i were to get rid of two of the motors, then it wouldnt be any more powerful than other 4WD bots.

CoW4RD has a good skin. Could be better but it's still nice.

Yeah, most all of my robots get a similar scheme once they've been tested and are worth taking the time to skin.
 
 
 
I really thought that I would really catch crap over Bulldozer, but you guys seem to actually like it.

Stock Showcases / HurricaneAndrew's Showcase of Scrapped Failures

This showcase is special. It is devoted to all the robots that I have put time and effort into, but for one reason or another, just didn't work out. They are all unique, but they all have one thing in common:  They have all been scrapped.


Bulldozer:  Originally meant to be a powerful pusher for Tabletop and King of the Hill competitions, but I soon realized that it was so fast that it would simply launch itself into the air when it hit another robot, which in a tabletop match, doesn't do you much good.






CoW4RD Revision 2:  This revision of one of my earlier bots, CoW4RD, was more of a test bot. It’s build was fueled by my curiosity about the “Project Trinity” glitch. I found out that I didn’t like the idea as much as I thought I did. It was scrapped before it was even finished.








Hang Tougher: This was an experimental revision of my most successful bot so far, Hang Tough. I felt the spinners needed to be more powerful. I soon learned that this way is not the way to do it.






Scrambler:  This one is already posted in my main showcase, but it failed hard enough that it deserves a spot here. As I have said in my main showcase, I got the idea for this robot from a carnival ride. It was supposed to be a super powerful HS, but instead it’s a super powerful failure, because it is impossible to control.






Tenderizer:  I had gotten sick of always building underpowered HSs, so to do something different I built this VS. It turns out that I am not very good at that either.
