General Support / Judge.py not working on a bot
« on: September 27, 2018, 10:04:58 AM »
So to help a host out, i decided to ai my own entrant. Used Judge.py, and a line from dsl replica
Bot retracts the hammer, but never fires/self-rights it.
What did i do wrong?
AI Line:
    list.append(("Poison Berry","Judge",{'MotorID':85,'StartAngle':math.pi*2,'reload':3,'nose':math.pi*2,'radius':0.5,'topspeed':100,'throttle':100,'turn':60,'turnspeed':2.5,'weapons':(88,)}))
BOT:

Lol, my 2000th post, yay

General Support / OBJ bot crashing when opponent hits it
« on: August 12, 2018, 10:38:42 AM »
Made a bot using sketchup/blender. Bot has over 80 faces, and it crashes on a first collision. Funny thing is that ive built bots with more faces, but they didnt crash, so what is wrong?

Tournament Archives / Kris is planing on hosting a tournament
« on: July 30, 2018, 11:31:35 AM »
Yup. As you may know i ditched Brothers in Arms due to one reason. My PC was too weak to record.
As i finally got myself x360 controller, i could use xbox recorder
Result i got from recording was that fps didnt fall.
Vid for proof:
Now the plan is:
Either Restart Brothers in Arms, with new entries, as i wasnt happy with some bots
Or start a new tournament, with Battlebots style bracket, and House bots (which alongside Shunt, you will build, prolly 4 of them)
This is my dilemma, so i made a poll.
Cheers, Kris

Tournament Archives / [DSL IRL, HW, EU only] That Parsec Thing
« on: July 09, 2018, 11:15:46 AM »
So... I got a new router!
I was planning of hosting this since that parsec rwra2 tournament, the problem was that my network was sh** (with speed of 8mbps) now that i have 10 times the speed i might even host a tournament. Me, MrBK, and Mystic tested parsec and everything was nearly flawless (except ra2 crashing few times). Due to distance/latency issues, this will be EUROPE ONLY with 16 spots
So this tournament would be held on August when i buy myself a better pc. You would receive a Discord link after sending a bot as VC is required (mic is not needed, as notepad communication is not good). Another thing is that this would be streamed on twitch
Rules for tournament:
DSL 2.2 HW IRL
16 entries, 1 entry per person
Cheatbot 2: only motors,l and those are: Overkill motor, Flatmotor and judge burst.
Extenderbots allowed, as network isnt really affecting network
OBJ, RA2CF allowed.
No weapon spam
No burst spam (OW rules)
Arena would be multiple Robogames arenas with Battlebots music
So, anything i missed/forgot?

What does this mean about my other tournaments? Well, if this goes well, ill resurrect, BiA with fresh enteries.

Other Tutorials / How to skin components (with pics)
« on: April 30, 2018, 04:07:28 PM »
This tutorial shows you how to skin a component
First of all, you need to find the gmf of the component in components file. (In this case a 106 saw)
Easiest way is this:
1. Attach a component on a bot (Best way would be if it's the first bot in the first team)
1.png

2. Locate the bot in the Teams folder (mine is Teams0/bot5), and open it with Notepad++
2.png

3. Locate the component line you want to skin (usually its the last component in the bot file as you added it last)
3.png

4. Locate the component in the Components folder (just copy the name.txt line and paste it in search bar), copy it to the desktop, enter it and look for the model line.
4.png

5. Locate the gmf file and copy it to the desktop.
It should look like this:

DECOMPILING, SKINNING, COMPILING AND USING THE COMPONENT:
I suggest using Serge's decompiler & compiler... Thing you need to do tho: 1. Set compatibility mode to Win XP, 2. check "Run this program as administrator"
Decompiling:
Open decompiler, select component, name it as you like (NOTE: You need to add .gmf as it doesn't add by default)
Skinning:
1. Open the decompiled gmf file with Notepad++
2. Locate the bitmap line, copy the name of the bitmap (in this case sawblaze.bmp), and name it as you like (usually line 41)
 
6.png

3. locate the old bmp file (one you copied), duplicate it, and rename it as you  named it in the gmf (in this case ooh)
 
7.png

4. Skin the bmp as you like and save it
 
8.png

Compiling:
Open the compiler, select the decompiled file you edited, and compile it. Name it as you like (NOTE: You need to add .gmf as it doesn't add by default)
Using the component in RA2:
1. Move the compiled component in the folder original file was
 
9.png

2. Open the txt file you copied to background
3. Change the model gmf to the one you compiled (Optional: Change the name if you want to)
 
10.png

4. Rename the txt file as you like and move it to Components folder

Open RA2 and test the component

I hope, i helped someone, or atleast tried to. Enjoy!

Modifications / DSL 2.2 components (Barely in disscussion)
« on: March 04, 2018, 04:04:09 AM »
So i've been doing some stuff in Sketchup and i thought of making components for DSL so here they are
Beta pile.jpg

Left to right
Hammer handle - You'll be able to stack em to make a longer arm, you will be able to attach it sideways or front.
Angled Hammer Arm - Explains for itself, you will be able to attach it sideways or front.
Disc - Teeth are included, but you will be able to put DSL ones
Hammer - Will do damage on both sides
Crusher - Yay it crushes
Crushing teeth - Just an idea, multiple angles on attachment points
All (but Hammer Handle) will come in various size
Thoughts and ideas?
