Thanks for all the help guys! Note that battles will always be stretched if you're not using a 4:3 resolution.
Ah i see. Thanks for the heads up. I was kinda confused on that since i saw a few threads from some users claiming to have 'fixed' it. I was really just looking for a way to have the battles be in true 16:9 that wasnt stretched but im guessing thats impossible.

Hey all, this might be a bit of a noob question here, but is there a way to run RA2 in widescreen (16:9 prefrably) without the graphics being stretched out, both in the UI and in battles? Ive searched the forums but the method i found for editing the ra2.cfg file always seems to result in stretching the graphics out rather than just widening the camera angle for battles. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

New bot! This one was by far the most difficult out of every other bot ive done, not only due to the difficulty in making it work at all like the actual robot but also in terms of skinning because of its awkward shape. So... heres Donald Hutson's Diesector!

Will you also put these on Bot Exchange?
I would, but theres a few problems with that. I modified a few components in the game when building OS and any game that downloads it would have to use those components too. It could mess up your pre-existing bots. Additionally, there isnt a section in the bot exchange for bots made in the RW mod.
There is, however, one for custom bots
The issue isnt so much the custom bots but the amount of custom components that they have been made with. It would take a large amount of time to manually separate them out and bundle each bot with each custom component. I havent been able to get the bot exporter tool to work but if anyone wants to give it a go, i can try to send over a copy of my entire game.

Made two replicas over the past week, Apollo, which is a reskin of Wham's Kronic, and Original Sin.

Made a few more changes to Original Sin. Resized side stickers and changed the wheels and wedge Looks a little more accurate now.

TELL ME YOIR SECRETS IMMEDIATELY
Photoshop, photoshop, photoshop. but seriously, just practice, ive had experience skinning parts in older games so this isnt the newest territory for me. It also helps trying to visualise what parts go where and how it will look when put together. First time building and skinning a bot from the ground up, this ones Original Sin.

Im aware the tires arent quite accurate, the dimensions are little off and i skipped over the gap behind the wedge but this is the best i could do in the botlab, oh well.
Awesome. And the fact that you build that with RWRA2.
Also, just wondering. Are you interested to start doing original bots with DSL?
Thank you, but im not that interested in that area at the moment. Maybe in the future though, but for now I really enjoy the arcade battling feel of the RW mod and all my bots are just attempts to round out the roster on there with some of my favourites that were missing.

Actually Amazing!
Thanks! That Apollo is 
On a side note, however, I know there is a version fo the mod with bots like PP3D and Carbide, but I can't find it, would you please mind sending me a link?
They are in the bot leaks pack or something like that in the downloads section. Its for use with RaRW2 so just copy the files over to the game and you should be good. Im not sure the story behind it but those and a few others werent released together with the regular pack, possibly due to rights issues? Its a shame really, i think there are probably a few more bots out there like Pulsar and Ironside that never got released and probably never will

Due to this being Ra2RW and not DSL. Gonna move this over to "Custom Showcase".
Forgot to mention in the previous post, I agree this is some wonderful skinning work. Keep it up
Ah sorry, my bad. Thanks for the heads up.

Looks really incredible dude, welcome to GTM!
Looks really incredible dude, welcome to GTM!
Thanks guys! Whose Carbide is it flipping?
Nice work on the Apollo skin!
Thanks, the Carbide was from the bot leaks pack in the downloads section. This appears to be Ra2RW, yes? Correct me if I'm wrong.
That is correct. This Apollo was specifically made with the intention of looking like a part of the pack as well as playing well alongside the other bots from Ra2RW. I know thats not what the creators wanted people to do, but Apollo is a favourite for me and my dad so i definitely wanted to have it in the game somehow.

Hey all, ive been a lurker on here for a while, but im not sure if this counts as a bot to showcase, so please correct me if broke a rule somewhere. So this is my first reskin and its one of my favourite robots, Apollo. Cant have a Robot Wars game without the series 8 champ right? Basically, its a reskin of Kronic (since theyre essentially the same bot) from the bot leaks in the DL section, made to look worn and in line with the other bots from the RWRA2+ mod. There have been very minor changes made to his internals, but the bulk of the bot is unchanged from the original. Took a fair while in photoshop but im very pleased with the results overall. It was quite a bit of trial and error on my end since it was a first attempt.
