If it comes to it, I might have to go to my friend's house and try to finish it there. Either way, I'm finishing the tournament even if I don't get my next tournament promoted to a major level one. Expect some work next week, and wish me luck!Awesome! Glad to see you persevering in the face of adveristy. 884

Luke's bot Toe Crusher gets wrecked by Christian's bot Knee Breaker, so in revenge, Luke hijacks Knee Breaker, kills Christian, and frames Brian. 885

Here's a thread for any appearances of robots or robot combat in other TV shows
Team Coolrobots had their bot Knee Breaker guest star as a murder weapon on CSI. The victim, murderer, and accused happened to have the same names as the team members (Christian, Luke, Brian). Read into that what you will. 887

I can only rember one, but it's a big one; getting the Holy Cow in Katamari Damacy. The most rage inducing thin in the game, and I finally kicked its ass!

Real Robotics Discussion / Re: robot wars talk anything to do with it« on: May 12, 2014, 02:22:39 PM »1. This is why I suggested the arena panels like in 2005 and roboteer pods. Insurance... Touchélet heavyweights have spinning weaponsThat's a matter of health, safety and very high insurance bills.have a main UK tournament that gets televised and keep the other events untelevised?Good luck finding a station willing to take RW on. The production of a series is a huge huge risk, the producer had to take on about 100 thousand pounds of debt just to get Series 1 off the ground. So that's a bit different than airing reruns. Perhaps they could get some kind of educatipn grant by replacing philippa forrester and jonothan pearce with engineers. Or they could get an embarassing photo of Sir Alan Sugar, and blackmail him into funding it. 891

Your choice of robot should be a secondary decision. You should decide on some techniques you want to teach, and choose a robot based on that.

So, here's why I haven't posted any new replicas in like 3 weeks, I've been working on this the whole time. Hopefully you'll agree it was worth it. It's one of those bots with a tiny chassis and a body made almost entirely of components.

General Support / Re: Probably not the 1st (or last guy) to ask this. But its irritating« on: May 10, 2014, 10:07:18 PM »Its DSL 2.1, I added the robots Tommy put up for download in the replica thread, and now it's messed up.Did you just add robots, or some new components too? Because it's the wheel components that cause the reversal. 894

When you upgrade to DSL 3, all of the wheels get "reversed." You'll have to fix each bot individually, or migrate the wheels over from an old copy.

Navigating your Robot Arena 2 folder is a very useful thing to know, and you certainly can't draw a skin if you don't know where to find it.i think he went for rhino because of how easy he is to do this is a school for learning how to build replicas better not watching tommy buildOn the next one, you should show some skinning outside of RA2. The in-game tools are only good for marking purposes. 897

Custom Components Showcase / Re: Pay Tribute With Replicas« on: May 07, 2014, 10:35:27 PM »My "expertise" is just patience and concentration. There's no secret to my crude technique, it's just hand-drawn pictures made by stretching the BMP's by 400%, then zooming in really really close and not stopping until I'm happy with every single dot. While you may not be completely happy with the final product, anyone who can turn on a computer can at least produce something skin-wise.I do agree but c'mon Sonny. You are an expert at skinning but don't be harsh on people who are beginning. I can barely skin so I'd be pretty pissed off if I got criticism like that.Meh, it'll come out 4:00pm tomorrow, British time. Remember, i can't skin or make decals so bare with me.Even if your skin looks bad, people will appreciate the effort more than if you dismissively say "I don't know how to do that." Even plain old MS Paint is capable of wonderful things if you put forth some effort: 899
