General Support / Slight issues with Camera Angles and Fullscreen

« on: May 08, 2010, 11:53:37 PM »

I'm trying to play NAR AI 2.2 with my system (Win7 Home Premium 64) and it won't allow me to play in fullscreen. Is there any way to fix this, or am I stuck in windowed mode?

Also, while in windowed mode the orbit camera (F2) does not work correctly and routinely goes out of orbit. Is there a camera angle that can keep it hard-line behind the robot without it acting on its own accord, or will I have to figure out how to make said camera angle?

DSL TC Showcases / COOLRUNNER's Craptacular DSL Showcase!

Most of you don't know of me. However, if you were ever at RFSHQ, you may remember me there as a very amateur robot builder in RA. Now, I come here to show you the good, the bad, and the ugly (which will likely be most of my 'bots) as I'm not very experienced with DSL.

Well, now to show my first robot, The Dark Knight!


Weapon: 4x Gothic Axe on 2 100cm Discs, Powered by an E-Tek Dual Axle; also an 80cm titanium front skirt
Motors/Wheels: 2x Backlash Wheels on 2 Team Whyachi Motors (Drive version)
Batteries: 1x Long Black (mistake, I know) and 2x Ant Batteries
Armor: Plastic 5

Here's a picture of the innards:


The robot has some issues (Mako-style flipping when the motor starts up) and easy tipping. Also, as you can see, I am just over the weight limit for the MW division (which is where I want to get it to).

So, do you have any ideas, thoughts, or n00b!!!! comments?
