I have some everyday regular questions : -The arena s hazards will be ON or OFF? -So the final showdown will not be a KotH type match? What arena for the 1vs1 non KotH battles you will use? -Explain better : however if there is a conflict between two robots at the end of the match, a battle will take place in order to decide who moves on to the next round.-You need to show us the Bye bot too. -We need your stance about the use of the newly discovered/unlocked cheaty 140 cm - 5 kilos square extenders. -We need your stance about the newly discovered uber stack glitch (components (batteries, other motors) stacked inside a motors). -Is the custom armour shine banned? -Change your rule about the controled movement to "at least 2 powered wheels", cos you are allowing the 1WD HSs for now. Also, what about half-crawlers? -Make you stance about "Cheap Norris" type bots. http://i.imgur.com/e4KaPO9.jpg <-- the second bot -You will need to iron what is "interchangeable weaponry" to avoid future problems. I have some blind spots in my understanding of how this rule will work. Sorry, for me being a "tournaments rules nazi". The only thing, that I don't like, is LW, MW would be better. But other than that, it's a OK tournament with some new/cool stuff. I plan to enter tho.

There was/is a reason why I'm a proud fan of PS (after the PC of course)

No matter how cool it looks, I'm still not convinced how that anti-HS has enough weapons to beat a HS straight on.
I used a tricky smart zone and AI, so it spins only when the enemy is pinned. So they don't spin/show and get destroyed when the HS is not yet pinned, the casters are taking the hits. I just wanted to demonstrate a good anti HS hybrid concept.
I know the point is to pin, stop spinners and then reach the extenders and tribars but still 8 weapons, attacking a HS face-on ?
First, I never said that this is some kind of an uber good bot (it's showcased after all), second, I always test my bots. So it's "OK" with what it supose to do, 8 flail irons on enhaced HPs are enough to kill a not spinning HS. The number
_____________________________________________________________________||
of weapons is not the most important part always, the bot showed under \/ has less (4 lousy razors), but it's way more effective in ANY aspect.

Is that a chassis drum?
Yep.
I have never seen that before.
That's a bot from me from 2008 I think.
If it spins, then I  you.
Yep, the bot "moves" "relatively normally", and thanks!
It can be improved A LOT, but I'm lazy. It just needs more stabilizers, just in case. It's not very combat worthy tho. The DDTs flips him, when the arena is loaded, then my tricky mechanism makes it moving, since, if your bot is sideways, you can't turn with a normal drive system (RA2 engine limitation), you need a crawler or the system of this bot. The turning of this bot is not that great tho. But what the  , it's still cool.

...Freeman Episode 2...
What's this? And what you mean? A new bot :  The way of the spinja : Spinjas live to serve their master, they are an anti HS specialists. They are trained to stop the spinning of the enemy weapons, while their flail weapons keeps damaging. However, the spinjas are very vulnerable to an enemies armed with wedges. The first legendary grand master, which invented the way of the spinja, is the ancient Japan master - Bad Nik the 96th.  And some random collage with screenshots, made while I was making/testing my bots pack :

-You forgot to show us the weight.
-Which Starcore, 1 2 3 4a 4b ?
-And what are the results from your testings?
-Always remember to provide the info I mentioned for your future bots.

dude don't leave
...I'm not leaving for now...
Chill out, I just want my bots rar to be ready, not to make it in the last minute.
But you must understand, that this is unavoidable at some point in time for EVERYONE in here...
you're one of the best stock builders we have
Ho-ho-ho, just you wait to see what "nightmares" my "bots pack" will have...
Thanks! Everyone, thanks for the kind posts btw, I really appreciate it.

[a general advices]
Dude, you forgot to include/post the info about the bot, along with the pics. Now we have to guess (making it hard to give a proper advices) the bot armour (plastic or DSA ?), the bot weight (what free weight you have left to spend ?), how much stacked batts (2 pinks I supose ?). Make a habbit to yourself to include that info for every bot, cos this is making our job (to give advices) harder.
Do you test enough your bots? Install some hardcore AI pack and test your bots vs this pack, this way you will see your bots flaws and you will get an objectively estimation about the quality of your bots.

*blowing out the dust from this showcase* before I leave permanently.
I'm gonna hate you for this :<
I will have to (I also want to stay, but...), when I start a job and concentrate on IRL stuff. If this is another thing that only works on your copy of the game I'll be really mad though.
Impossibru, so don't worry  I can rar and release my RA2 copy, but I'm 100% sure, that the variations from a player to player are PC hardware based only, so there is no point, but if there is enough interest, no problem to do it, who knows, maybe I unlocked somehow some very rare bug I was not much around lately, busy with putting an order in my bots exported folders, so I can say now for sure, that my "ALL EVER VENKO'S BOTS RAR" is ready for releasing to the public It contains EVERY new or old bot of me, ANY, even the most secret one, if something is not in the archive, this means that it's totaly lost forever. It was 1 very long week of unfair fight with : checking/testing, exporting, removing anti-ballasts, adding names/renaming, wireing, finishing unfinished bots, deleting duplicates, sorting by some criterias, adding bots previews, and so so on... I can get back to the building now. I'm a bit bored from RA2, but I still build :  An art bot. GF with akimbo crowbars. I exported the texture directly from the HL1 Gordon model. I'll not release my bots for now, cos I'm not leaving for now. And always remember, that I will not leave without saying goodbye to the forum.

After the PC, I'm a fan of Sony, so I know about PSX. Also :

Of course, that most of the people with ANY sence left won't buy that s***. Not sure for the very young retards, but anyway... You all missed the big thing here. As a PC user, I'm concern that the s*** e***** r****** b*********** f****** n**** u*** m************ from MS will apply that s*** to Windows, if no one oppose them. Then, other companies will apply this "uber monopol dictatorship greedy politic" slowly (it's allready applied from years if you ask me), then other industries outside of the entertaiment industry. And one morning we will wake up in a world worse than s***... So better start throwing rocks at every single retard that buys that s***, cos with his retardness he contributes for the misery of the others, that's why the world sux nowdays btw.

Lets just hope, that Domanating can't participate, so everyone else to have a chance this time.

Welcome back.
Just a small advice :
Crop your pics to the 3D bot view only, this huge .png-s may loading forever on a slow net. And show the info such as : the armour type, the weight, the batteries - as a text in the post.

Back on topic...
So, is everyone agree so we can start this, as it is?
Jonzu, what is your opinion as a host?

On my HP laptop the pause key works perfectly.
As for your problem, you could use an external keyboard on the USB.
I use sometime.

@ Jonzu :
Since, this is unsolvable (we lose one entrant in every case), I'm going to act as a gentleman and propose the real solution :
I'm removing my complain, go ahead and start it as is, Badnik's bot is not that scary after all. C2000 could increase my chances drastically, but I have the habbit to not enter with my best bots anyway, so really, go ahead like it is now...
@ Iahn :
My bot is better than Zombie, it will probably beat the UD 1 vs 1, but the rumbles however are very chaotic and everything can happen.
@ All :
Jonzu, your rules doesn't even say that your robot needs a controlled movement, it doesn't even mention any movement and doesn't forbid bumble balls. "AW-The grenade" anyone? So he better start this, before he mess it up even more...
77
« on: June 03, 2013, 08:14:35 AM »
So, if Jonzu allow 1WDs we lose Ianh, but if 1WDs are not allow we lose Badnik.
How can we solve this?
That's what happens when the host changes the rules...

*crowd booing*
I'm 100% sure, that you changed the rule during the signups, trust me, I'm a "tournament rules nazi". I wanted badly to enter with C2000, but your rule stoped me.
But the biggest problem here is :
Where is your post to inform us of such a drastic rule change during the signups? So you don't have a excuse like "I changed it weeks ago, you all had enought time to change your entry".
79
« on: June 02, 2013, 06:28:23 PM »
Signups are now officially open.
The signups are open from THAT^ date. Which means, that Jonzu changed the rules drastically during the signups. The problem is, that even if this change was a long time ago and we had the chance to re-enter, this happened secretly, without a post to tell us that the rules changed, if I saw this earlier I wouldn't entered with Shiny. I'm NOT complainin' about Badnik96's entry, his bot is not THAT dangerous even with 1WD, he should be alowed to change his entry if Jonzu decide to fix that, but don't ban him from the tournament, cos he don't have a fault about that. I'm complainin' about me not entering with this : Cheapatron 2000

« on: June 02, 2013, 08:18:11 AM »
Sorry to be a party breaker, but there is a problem with this tournament. First, I wanted to enter with the 1WD "cheapatron 2000", but Jonzu deny and added the "2 powered wheels" rule. Then, I had to made another bot, with a 2 powered wheels this time = AW-Shiny. Now, I see that Jonzu removed the "2WD" rule from the OP yestarday, and even alowed Badnik96 to enter with a 1 wheel spinner. Probably Jonzu don't want to reject Badnik96's entry, and he changed the rule secretly, but I'm on my watch to save the day Sorry Badnik96, but... Jonzu, what the man? Don't make a double standart, 1WD is a huge advantage, fix this somehow, it's unfair this way.
