Pretty neat. I still think it would look better with a thwacking tail rather than the chainsaw thing it has now personally but other than that it's very nice

That's weird. We never had that problem when we did the tournament.
IDK if it was an issue with the host's PC or something with parsec. I'm tentatively assuming the former but IDK

I just noticed that the only taskbar'd browser is IE or Edge, too. Don't suppose you could go ahead and kill whoever the host was?
*Edit:* And he still has that windows store thing pinned to his taskbar. Not to mention he was playing RA2 windowed, in the first place. I shouldn't have been able to see this mess. I feel ill.
in his defense ra2 seems to crash a lot more in fullscreen when hosting with parsec.
Believe me, it was crashing enough as it was. Basically every fight crashed at least once on loading.

Made an update to Speed Demon. Swapped the doubled up colson wheels for rubber wheels which are basically the same width and slightly larger diameter wise. This allows the bot to run upside down now, and also freed up a bunch of weight, which allowed me to give it bigger discs with a much more potent tooth setup, as well as increasing the chassis armour, which is now Ti5. Very happy with how it both looks and performs now.

Turns out there's also an android APK available of parsec, which basically means that you don't even need to be on your computer to join multiplayer games. You'll need to connect a keyboard to your phone somehow (I had an OTG adapter laying around), but a bluetooth one should work too. Tested it by connecting to my own laptop and while there were some stutters and the stream quality wasn't great, the actual input lag was minimal despite my non-stellar internet, and the game itself was very much playable.
Probably not as major as the other uses of the software but I thought this was another pretty damn cool feature to it.

I also like Sir Morphalot a lot. Particularly the disc design, and overall compactness of it. Nice job Neon

Looks good. I'd personally go for smaller wheels, like 2 vlads so you get similar width to the n12s but a smaller diameter, but otherwise looks pretty neat, especially for a first extenderbot.

VS > Bar, both look awesome like the rest of your creations. Your showcase is a great source of inspiration for newbies like me!
Thanks! The HS has been ditched now as like just about everyone else I much prefer the VS version. Hearing that I'm inspiring newcomers is awesome. Never would have thought it possible when I was starting out

Now we need another one in Gulf livery.
I've done other bots in a sort of pseudo-gulf livery before but now you mention it I may have to go back and have a crack at a proper gulf livery Maybe i'll follow that up with a JPS or Rothmans livery to complete the holy trinity

That racing car color scheme 
Been wanting to make a bot with the martini racing scheme for a hell of a long time...

Not gonna lie but the horizontal bar looks so boring. The vertical flywheel is the place to be, I love it.
agree with philippa, definitely prefer the vertical setup
that being said, looks great
Definitely agree with both of you. Much happier with the vert, though originally I didn't think I had space to make a vert, as a VS or a lifter was the original plan for the weapon. It also happens to be an absolute beast in VS mode too which also helps :D Thanks for the feedback though you guys

Double post but IDC because it was buried anyway :V
Made a vert config of Speed Demon with dual perm 80s for the discs. Also upgraded both configs to 4 NPC fasts from regular so now it actually lives up to the name.

This looks a lot better than the bar.
I agree. It works a lot better too.

New bot. First proper skin basically ever. Always wanted to do a bot with the martini racing scheme so here one is. Super underpowered as a bot but I don't really care because I'm really happy with how it came out looks wise.

I looked at it and was like "damn that's an awesome HW flipper" and then I read "CW". I'm blown away. How you get these things within weight is beyond me.

If I had the ability to rep people, just know that I'd uprep ya for being one of the most underrated IRL builders in my honest opinion. Catharsis and that croco-bot-thingy look fantastic. :D
This bot is to pure! I love it!this bot makes me think we should make a tournament where its only the most adorable bots
heh, cute

Ladies and gentlemen, after a long delay due to outside interference....Orc's Wars New Blood Heat A is finally here! Today's episode features Thyrus, NeonCalypso, PrimevalBrony, Kaiser, Tashic and RedAce!
A great start to the new blood competition! Rejector really impressed me with how it blends looks, realism and combat effectiveness into one bot. That's what I'm always going for with my bots, to varying degrees of success  . 2 deserving heat winners though All in all looking forward to the upcoming episodes!

Not the way I would have liked to win but I'll take the victory anyway.
Aslo joint 1st in stock and 2nd in IF. Not too bad.
