well,what am i supposed to fill it with? i have 3 kgs left...

That statement sums up what a noob is.

YOU HAVE THREE KGS LEFT BECAUSE YOU HAVE EMPTY SPACE!!!!

YOU NEVER FILL A CHASSIS, YOU MAKE A CHASSIS AROUND A BOT!!!

i don't think we are getting through to these noobs guys. we need to do a noob starter guide. and attach it to the confirmation email when they try to register, so they actually read it.

that hurt sage...haha just kidding,buuut if i build it around the bot the motors in the back hardly fit as it is, the black battery fits by a pixel,aaaaand i cant think of a dif design. and yes i am a noob,thanks for pointing that out :D

Sage · « **Reply #102 on:** February 16, 2009, 04:43:18 PM »

sorry.

it's just a poorly designed chassis that makes it look like theres a lot of empty space.

i dont know how to explain it to you, but there is a much better way of doing the same thing... you'll just have to figure it out on your own.

It would just be like a privacy policy on other websites. Scroll down, click read, and don't read it.

Instead of Having those "Type this set of letters" thing, we could have a simple question like:
"The worst extenders are?"

So the answer would be: Square.

(I also promote it to be in full grammar to get rid of those illiterate newbs.)

how about you mount the drive system and weapons on a snapper, or a servo disk

good idea duck,but it wouldnt be middleweight,it would be heavyweight.

and one new bot.
thee name: Quick stop(no not the gas station)
i got the idea of the name,because how it stops the bots with the front plows,while the ram plates weaken thereweapons,or wedges, and the plows on the side feeds the bot to the spinners. i would put 6 spinners on each tribat,but i think i reached the 7 rule thingy? anyways here is the inside

and here is the front of it:

haha it kinda looks like a butterfly because of the plows on the sides...anyways and comments and suggestions welcome,yes peoples even sarcasm,flames(well maybe not) but you get the idea.

and can somebody tell me how to do splashes? because those look cool and i wanna make one for my botm entry. (secret so shhh)

I like it.

You'd be better with less armor and more than 6 irons.

Sage · « **Reply #113 on:** February 21, 2009, 09:37:44 AM »

put the irons directly on the tribars, because the extenders make them 5 times weaker (200 HP vs 1000 HP)

as for splashes, it just takes practice and a good program. I got photoshop off youtube (people give it away for free) bu GIMP is aslo good, and thats legal.

what i do is take a bunch of battleshots, crop out everything but the two bots, put them all in a 700x800 background so they cover the whole thing, set their opacity at like 66% or so, make the background cool with different colors and textures. thats the background. then i take three different shots of the bot (or however many you want, but you dont want to cover up the battleshots in the background too much.) i crop out the bot's square, and then use the magic eraser tool in photoshop (gets rid of the color you click on.) i move those images to my splash, give them an outline with the blending options, and move them around to look good. then i have fun with the name. the names can be whatever you want, so i can't tell you how to do that.

VS + One Center Wedge = Unstable.

add the weight also and maybe, if not obvious the armor it is using
