Off-Topic Discussion / I return!
« on: September 15, 2017, 05:50:10 AM »
*thunderclap in the background*

Greetings! Now that I'm back at college, I decided to start coming back online. (As it appears to be the only damn thing not blocked at college, for... some reason or another.)

Discussion / Current meta?
« on: January 12, 2017, 06:33:25 AM »
Hi, guys, it's Red here, back from the grand aether that is my life to drop myself back into the pit of disease.

So, I'm just wondering, because I've been away for the best part of a year, what's the current meta-game? What's the mod that's being used the most? What's this retooled shiznit like?

*sighs* it's like being a noob all over again...

Game Development / Fire emblem hax (in progress)
« on: September 15, 2016, 06:19:22 AM »
So, this is a project I've been working on for a little bit. I'm taking the base Fire Emblem 7 (otherwise known as just 'Fire Emblem') and I plan on producing my own maps, story, and might change a few gameplay mechanics. So far, I've made some basic text edits in Nightmare (with... Interesting results...)


I'm in the process of coding in some maps, characters, and weapons. I'll do a commentary here of what I've got up to, and may post a short demo when it's done.

Thoughts?

So, yeah. I dabble in some art, mostly drawn, but today, I'll post a wee bit of pixel art. Granted, what I have done is take some existing parts, splice 'em together, and recolour them, so... Yeah. Cool.



I know the eyes are a bit weird, but ehhhhhhhh.
Anyhoo, thoughts?

Existing Games / Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood
« on: April 23, 2016, 06:38:58 PM »
Hey, anyone remember this game?



I remember it well, considering it was my first trip into the rpg genre, and I looked at it again recently, and it is a decent entry level rpg, and a damn fine sonic game. It is a shame that the sequel is stuck in limbo, due to copyrighting issues with a staff member regarding the comics, and the similar designs in SC. Although, Sega barely acknowledge this game's existence, anymore, which is a shame, as this game is decent.

The art is great, the music is... Questionable, at best, the graphics are decent, for DS, and the story is pretty good for a sonic game. There are some twists here and there that genuinely shocked me.

Definitely worth picking up, especially considering it's relatively cheap to get pre-owned

8.5/10 better than boom

DSL TC Showcases / Red's DSL of tomfoolery
« on: April 10, 2016, 11:42:47 AM »
So, I finally make a DSL showcase. 'bout time, eh?


So, I'm currently in the process of making a bot for the "Rival Rumble" tournament, and I was tasked with building a clamp. Hopefully, DG doesn't cheat and use this bot to counter mine.



[/size]
(spoilered to prevent cheating)


So, any tips to make this bot better?

Discussion / Question on bot types
« on: April 07, 2016, 02:31:18 PM »

I have recently submitted a bot into the "Rival Rumble" tournament, and I was given the bot type "clamp"



Here is my bot:-





Now, Thrackerzod is unsure on what the type of this bot is, and is cautious when entering the bot into the tournament.


So, my question is, do you think this bot is a side-hammer, or a clamp? (see poll above)


Thanks in advance for the help,
Red


P.S. if you think it is a side-hammer, could you please give examples of a clamp, just to ensure I can make an actual clamp in the future.

I know it's yet another total noob question, but how do I actually GET dsl 2.2? I need it for a challenge, so can I have answers as soon as possible, please!

Thanks,
Red.

Existing Games / Kingdom Hearts Series
« on: December 16, 2015, 02:33:37 PM »
For anyone not in the know, the kingdom hearts series is a series of games created by the maker of Final Fantasy- Tetsuya Nomura- and it blends together the unlikely combination of Disney and Final Fantasy. I sh** you not. It may sound really weird, but, seriously, once you play it, you'll understand why it works better than you'd think.

Thought it'd be a good time to make this, due to all the hype for Kingdom Hearts III, as well as the hype for 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue.

Stock Showcases / Red Blur's "slightly stocky build" showcase
« on: November 11, 2015, 03:42:45 PM »
So, my friends, a new frontier!


Yes, I have journeyed into stock, and HOLY CHRIST LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THE COMPONENTS!


So, anyway, my first bot is called Nuclear Dooky, and, with this bot, I have taken on a new form of presenting it (as I have become slightly more adept at using mspaint)





Yes, it does look rather crap, but it can beat most of the ai lightwieghts relatively easily.


It has titanium armour.


Thoughts? Tips?

Chatterbox / I have... an apology to make.
« on: November 08, 2015, 04:34:23 PM »
Hey, guys, it's me, Red.

So... I have an apology to make. I've realised that I've been... Less than helpful to this community (posting, frankly, sh**e advice; falling for troll bait; being a general asshat etc.), so, I am making this thread to apologise for the amount of sh** I have poured into this community. I am also making a promise. This promise is that I shall strive to become a better member of the community. After all, some people have been drawing parallels between myself and a member named Sparkey. By my research, this is not a good thing.

Apologies, once again, for being a total wanker, and I hope to be a better member in the future,
Red.

Discussion / More total noob questions by TRB!
« on: October 23, 2015, 06:47:19 AM »
So, I have seen posts mentioning something called "multibots", which just makes me think there is more than one chassis for a bot, which, as far as I can tell, is impossible. Will anyone help me on what a multibot is, and possibly direct me to a tutorial?

Once, again, sorry for being a total feckin noob.

Discussion / Chassis paint glitch! (halp meh)
« on: October 13, 2015, 01:20:07 PM »
so, there I am, trying to make a bot for a challenge versus the almighty thrackerzod. My bot finally nears completion, all I needed to do was place a good skin onto it...


Then this happens.





 :vista:




Any ideas on how to fix this, or do I just have to try to copy the same bot over again?


(Btw, this is a new design of mine so shh...)

Discussion / Question on custom skins
« on: October 03, 2015, 05:12:30 AM »
So, if I used, say, a custom-skinned blade or hammer (no extra buffs/debuffs added, just cosmetic changes) then would it still be able to be used in a tournament?
