Alright, the topic is ready, my pants are on :baffled:, it's ROBOT SHOWCASING TIME!!!
First up is my lightweight, Sit'n'Spin'n'...Stuff:

Thanks dude! :gawe:
How do you like my lightweight? How can i improve it? I'm all ears.

As far as bots go, It's been done before.
Stock Really hasn't been made to showcase robots like that in a long long time. Almost everyone plays stock very very differently from your style.
I'd really recommend you get DSL2.1 or DSL 3-alpha. There are a lot more components to use, arenas and other fun stuff.
-
Read this. (http://beetlebros.gametechmods.com/ra2techs.htm)
And this. (http://beetlebros.gametechmods.com/ra2stats.htm)
Basically, replace the mud tires w/ shinies, the battle axe with razors/irons... and get rid of the pink battery packs.
-
Yeah, what he said.
If you look at other stock showcases, they use many glitches and other various techniques which is much different from real life style robotics.
Your best bet would probably be to download and get familiar with DSL2, then check out some other showcases (Scrap Daddy, Virus Bomb, ty4er, Thyrus, etc) if you want to follow a real life style approach.

Here's the internals:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/64508Sit'n'Spin'n'...Stuff Insides2.JPG)
I used snapper loading to get the new weapon head, and the ramming sheilds are meant to protect the weapon support... sort of.
I'll be back later after i get another replica done... in STOCK!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:
-
The first one was built to the weight limit at least, and its not bad for IRL, just a little generic.
Dont feel like typing some huge advice text block for the mw this late at night so I'll let someone else do it.
-
Whoops! I didn't even pay attention to the weight limit! Again: :facepalm: :facepalm: I'll fix that later.
In the meantime, here's a robot some what less "generic":
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/39373Rusty.JPG)
Here's the innards:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/42653Rusty Insides.JPG)
Again, I'll take any advice. ;)
-
I like where you are going with Rusty, but it could use some major adjustments. These include:
- The wedge is not that great. Use a small wedge on an extender on a blue snapper. This will save lots of weight for stronger weapon burst motors and more hammer weapons.
- Use a snowplow for frontal armor. This is crucial for hammers, as their weapons fly in from the sides as opposed to the front. No frontal weapon means that there is nothing to protect the chassis.
- Use a stronger burst motor for the hammer weapon. This will allow for more weapons on the hammer and allow it to function as a proper srimech. As it is, the separate srimech is just a waste of weight.
- Eliminate the RAD motors and wheels and only have two-wheel drive with HP Z-Teks. This saves weight as well as battery power for the burst motor. Keep the shiny hubs, though
- What armor are you using? Stock only has two viable armor options: Plastic and Double-strength aluminum (DSA). DSA is attained by not selecting any armor, thus providing you with a light armor that is stronger than steel. Only use plastic if there is absolutely no weight leftover for DSA. If you selected an armor besides DSA, this will ruin the glitch. The only way to re-apply DSA is to re-build the chassis.
- You only need a single supervolt for this bot. The extra pink is barely helping if at all, so you might as well remove it.
Also, don't post multiple smileys in a row. It makes you look like a n00b, which, based on your replicas, you certainly are not.
-
You seem to have chassis space management down, which is certainly a good thing. For your second thwackbot, you could shrink the chassis a little more, mount your weapons on a baseplate anchor and get more of them. You only need one black battery for it as well. If you need to, you could probably stick a second arm out of the back of the robot so you deal damage from more than one point.

The armor is DSA, and i'll try to use the smileys less repetitively. As for you advice, it's EXACTLY the kind of advice i wanted, so thank you.
Is this any better?
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/98055Rusty.JPG)
Here's the insides:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/34734Rusty Insides.JPG)
And while i'm at it, Badnik, i couldn't get Sit'n'Spin'n'Stuff two arms in the way i wanted, but I've improved it nonetheless.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/41561Sit'n'Spin'n'...Stuff.JPG)
And innards:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/61295Sit'n'Spin'n'...Stuff Insides.JPG)
Also DSA.
And finally, my very unusual but awesome HeavyWeight, O-Bladerator:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/23384O-Bladerator.JPG)
Heres the innards:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/45358O-Bladerator Insides.JPG)
Yes, the weapon is a vertical spinner mounted on a servo, and the reason why is where things get unusual.
Here he is in action:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/18200O-Bladerator In Action.JPG)
The whole weapon system can rotate 360 degrees, meaning he can be inverted yet still use his weapon.
Fragile and unorthidox maybe, but it works!
Armor is steel :frown:, and yet it STILL is underweight. Any ideas?
-
You don't need steel armor, you can use DSA (double strength aluminum) by not touching the armor tab at all. Lighter and stronger than steel.
The new SnSnS (lol, it's a taken acronym) is much better, but you could still save weight by making your wheels external (in turn shrinking your chassis more) and mounting the weapon on a baseplate anchor.
I like the creativity behind O-Bladerator, but it'd look and work better in DSL I think.
For Rusty, the wedge would work better if it was symmetrical, and if the hammer had more spikes on it. Sacrificing those spike strips should help. Again, make your wheels external, the less chassis exposed the better. I have a pretty good MW hammer around here, maybe I'll showcase it to give you some ideas ;)

Thanks! S.N.S.N.S uses the snapper in order to get all those weapons on, and i thought that protected wheels were better within the chassis rather than have external components. The side spike strips on rusty are there to avoid getting stuck on his side, though i could just change the chassis or something. I will definately get the symmetry on that flipper fixed, it kinda bugged me anyway. I'll do a DSL showcase later.
On a final note, would you be interested in me making a 180 degree hammer bot in stock? it uses a method i thought up myself, and may never have been done before...
Again, thanks for the advice! :mrgreen:
-
Also, for O-Bladerator, use four smaller ice picks as opposed to two larger ones. Both sizes of ice picks have 1000HP and 157DP (Damage potential, a relative measure on how much damage this weapon could do. In Stock, this ranges from 100 to 183.9, but the range is much wider in DSL 2 and 3, 150 to 425 and 125 to 1019 respectively), but singe picks have half of the weight of a double pick. Alternatively, you could use irons, razors, maces, axe heads*, or bear claws*.
As for rusty, you could prevent it getting stuck on its side by placing the Z-teks farther apart from each other. The wheels might do the spike strips' job as well as their own. This could also give you a place to put the supervolt.
*Axe heads and bear claws have normals, which are areas the weapon can do damage with. For example, sawblades can only do damage with the edge and will do nothing with the flat face. For axe heads and bear claws, these normals are the axe blade and the tips of the claws respectively.
-
One thing I really want to say: Rusty 1.1's wedge should stick out more.
There are other things you can do, but most of them have been said.
I like your creativity, though.
-
Is there a mounting system you can use with a snapper and not an anchor? I fail to see much difference...
-

Badnik:
With a snapper, you can snapper load and/or eFFe the components on the extender. Although this is probably unnecessary, since the components can be attached in the manner that they are without either of these techniques.
Tommy:
With the weight saved from replacing the snapper with an anchor, you could replace the sideways razors with irons. This isn't something I normally would advise, but since irons are much larger than razors, the irons would reach past the ice picks. Additionally/alternitavely, you could replace the supervolt with a nifty, since a nifty is more than enough to power that bot for three minutes. This method gives you the opportunity to learn how to stack control boards inside of Nifties, which is a very popular trick in the Stock community.
-
Whoops, thought i had posted these earlier.
I've made some upgrades to S.N.S.N.S and Rusty 1.1:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/72432Sit'n'Spin'n'...Stuff.JPG)
S.N.S.N.S is MUCH more compact now, apparrently, i didn't need snapper loading for the weapon to be put together.
I'll try iron spikes next update, so don't worry.
Here's the internals:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/84403Sit'n'Spin'n'...Stuff Insides.JPG)
Here's Rusty 1.2:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/91363Rusty.JPG)
And his internals:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/7933Rusty Insides.JPG)
Thanks again to everyone for the advice, keep it up! :bigsmile:
I'd also like some more forum members to assist, so that i have some more variety in opinions.
-
Rusty is much better. Next step is replacing all your angle connectors with regular extenders. It saves weight and provides more places to mount weapons.
-
Also, replace the ramplates with snowplows, adding more extenders to spread them apart if necessary. This provides for a wider defense for less weight. You may need to rotate the extenders so that the snowplows face forwards. Ideally, you want a setup like this...
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/56914Wide Plow Setup Demo.png)
...where the black extenders represent 60cm extenders, the red one is 40cm, and the square ones are 20cm (note: do not use square extenders that aren't 140cm long; they have the same HP as round extenders for more weight, except for the 140cm ones, which weigh 5kg). Both ramplates and snowplows have 1000HP and varying sizes, making them equally applicable in their own ways. In this case, snowplows are preferred thanks to their width. This will take up more weight if you use it, but it will help protect from those meddling horizontal spinners. For the wedges, you could either use the blue SnaperII's or use a Snapper2 (the blue snappers weigh 13kg, while the Snapper2's weigh 22kg); a DDT is best suited for a weapon, not a wedge. as for replacing the angle extenders with regular extenders, remember that each small interval in which components are rotated is equal to 10 degrees, so to rotate something 90 degrees, rotate it nine of these intervals, often called "clicks".
I can see this bot coming together quite nicely. It is already improving, and quickly, too. Then, once you get good, you could learn to AI and enter tournaments. Keep up the good work, Tommy!

How well does the mega plow work for a lifting device?
-
Rusty 1.2 could use a few more weapons. Put some more on by using the side points on several 20cm extenders instead of one long extender
Is Sit'n'Spin'n'...Stuff invertible?
-
How well does the mega plow work for a lifting device?
They don't work too well as lifting devices. But seriously, making this a flipper would end up being a waste of weight, hence why I suggest you use a SnapperII instead of a DDT. If you can, you could also try to add one more razor to each hammer arm, assuming you use a 20cm extender in place of the angle extender, although don't worry if you really don't have the weight..

Yup, and it was pretty hard to get the chassis height compatible with Z-Teks and use Shinies.
I'll be presenting us 3 ALL NEW robots as well, each very different in design.
Stay tuned! ;)
-
Pardon my double post, but it's important.
I've only thought up of 2 new robots, and they may be the last ones i will showcase in a while, for I intend to do a DSL showcase.
So here they are. First, my signature bot T

And his innards:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/11363Death Grip Insides.JPG)
That's all for now, be on the look out for a DSL showcase of wierd, ineffective bots. :dance:
-
LW looks really good, but on the HW 2 Blacks will be enough to power it. ;)
-
Death grip looks nice, but you really don't need the weapons on the back. Most AI scripts have the bot meeting the other bot head-on, so these rear weapons are of little use. Also, put some kind of front shielding on the bot. This could either be snowplows or ramming weapons, like the ones on the back. As I said before, hammer bots have weapons that attack from the side, so they need some kind of frontal protection.
-
I HAVE RETURNED!
I've been trying to get Death Grip up to the weight limit, but he's STILL under-weight.
Does ANYBODY have ANY suggestions on another type of bot I should try and build?
-
Try a Vertical Spinner. Those are fun.

Wow, I was actually thinking the same thing! Stay tuned, you may find a rather "interesting" design coming your way. :mrgreen:

I'll work on that a little later. In the meantime, here's my VS, Vertigod:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/83377Vertigod.JPG)
As always, DSA.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/26665Vertigod Insides.JPG)
The reason I used ballasts is because the huge weight of the weapon system meant the robot kept tilting foreward, sometimes even doing a cartwheel if the weapon touches the ground.
Also, the Samurai Swords act as stabilizers.
-
Nice bot. Although there are things that need improvement. First off, turn the Z-Teks 180 degrees. The discs will help to block attacks on them. Also, angle extenders aren't very good since they are heavy and don't have that much HP. Your only option is to find a way to spare 40-50kg for either plows or ramplates, since any good or long-reaching HS has the potential to rip the exposed extenders right off.
-
gross

gross
In what way? I know it's not the prettiest robot in my showcase, but stock bots tend to look kind of "messy", to say the least.
-
Alright, time to dust off my showcase and present to you guys my greatest stock bot yet...
THE SAVANT!!!
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/79723The Savant.JPG)
A 36 HS, my very first. :mrgreen:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/2969The Savant Insides.JPG)
What do you guys think? :gawe:
-
This thing has far too many batteries. A single black will power it fully, two blacks will ensure that it stays strong for the full three minutes.
Try to use the blue Snapper II's instead of the servos. Snapper II's are lighter than any servo, and, being counted as burst motors, can be adjusted more easily than servos.
Razors are good weapons, but they aren't commonplace on 36HS. In fact, I made a 48HS that used 48 razors (it is in my stock showcase and is called Razing the triBar). More ideal weapons for a 36HS include maces, iron spikes, and bear claws*.
Those wheels are not stock wheels. They are custom components, which are, more often than not, banned from tournaments. Replace them with either shiny hubs or grannies, if shiny hubs don't make the bot invertible.
*Beware, bear claws have damage normals. These normals are on the tips of the claws, so make sure that these are facing the direction in which they spin. Irons and maces do not have these rather crippling normals.
-
Re-read these:
Read this. (http://beetlebros.gametechmods.com/ra2techs.htm)
And this. (http://beetlebros.gametechmods.com/ra2stats.htm)
That's a good try, though, as it is technically a 36hs. rnifnuf said everything that needs to be said.
-
Clean download of stock (https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=4)
Firstly I'd recommend downloading that because you've got your custom components muddled up (although tbh those wheels look like reskinned grannies idk)
I'd recommend two blacks for this, although you probably could get away with 1. The chassis can be shrunk a lot by removing the nifties and stacking the blacks.
As rnifnuf said, blue snappers are the way to go. They're lighter, can be adjusted more easily and have 2 AP's, which allow you to actually build your entire bot off of one if you so desire. As well as this you can shorten the extenders and snapper load everything on to make your bot a lot more compact, making it harder for popups to ohko you.
That's it for now, work on that first and then we'll see what your bot looks like :)
-

Those are reskinned grannie wheels what are you talking about.

They are? I was not aware of that.
Either way, shiny hubs are better wheels, but stick with the grannies if it isn't invertible with shiny hubs.
-
You can make it invertible with shiny hubs very easily, the chassis only needs to be a few ticks tall to fit in snappers and blacks

Advice?
-
Good job cutting down empty space! I think you could get by with less armor and a few more weapons though, depending on whether you want an HS or a HS/rammer hybrid.
-
No need for 90 degree anglers, just use the sides of round extenders.
-

Based on this, Couldn't you stack the ztek within the black and add another weapon? I'm not that good at stock, so don't take my word for it too much
Edit:z-gem? God damn typos
-
Looking a lot better! Good job on trimming the chassis :3
At the risk of making it more generic, you could attach the drive to the snapper too. That would give you more weight for a bigger ramming rack or weapons on the spinner. Also as Wacky Bob said, try avoid using angle connectors. Extenders do the same but are lighter.
Good improvement though :3

You NEED a chassis wedge for it to be a popup/work as a popup. Right now it's some sort of a lame hammer. Aside for that, it looks rather well built.

Flat-fronted "popups" can actually work with more armor. See eFFe's Teh Generic!
https://wiki.gametechmods.com/index.php?title=Teh_Generic! (https://wiki.gametechmods.com/index.php?title=Teh_Generic!)
Granted, it does have a slight incline, but it still works more by getting bots in front of it, not on top of it like a normal popup.
-
But is anyone impressed that I beat the Psycolone pop-up challenge? :confused:

It's not a massive 'challenge', more of a standard for building MW popups.

Weapons should be the other way around: maces on the inside, irons on the edges. The way you have it right now makes the maces useless until the irons fall off.

Thanks. I'll improve it once I go back to my dad's, since it was saved on the computer that I have there. I'm gonna try and improve my stock capabilities. BTW, is there any faster method to stack? It takes me about 5 whole minutes to stack to black batteries.

Why mud tires? Grannies should work just fine.

Umm... how do I post images again? That's how long it's been since I've showcased something.
I've got an IRL stock I need to show off.
-
Here's an IRL bot I made. I plan on making some more to be used for Barangoat's AI bots. This one won't be used because it might be too powerful for stock replicas to handle.

Also, how do you make custom decals? I REALLY need to know.
-
I come back to stock with a beautiful IRL bot and I get no response? Not even criticism of making IRL stock, just straight up apathy?
Guess I'll have to keep trying. :dumb)
First here's MystrSyko2. I built him for a friend of mine, who needs new stock robots.

And here's Bart Baker, whose music is probably the most savage and hilarious in all of Youtube.

I'm gonna try making a robot based of Eric Cartman from South Park next. Wish me luck!

Im scared of Mike's bot... only due to the face.
Still both are beautifully made. Nice job.
-
The ramplate assembly on the VS looks nice, but that's about it.
That Mortis thingy looks really great, though.
-
IRL Stock is very rarely done outside of Banter Wars, but even with that in mind, I think the VS looks great.
And of course you clone Mr. Psycho for... well, Mystrsyko. :P
-
Thanks for the input guys! I didn't get my Cartman bot finished, but I did get some other stuff done:

BigJigglyPanda, based off my favorite youtuber. That's a picture of his face.

Then we've got this:
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
OMG ITS RAZZORR!!!
Actually, it's Johnathan PIERCE. Get it? Pierce instead of Pearce? Haha...
I figured I'd make him a crusher, since he loves talking about Razer's "crushability factor" so often.
-
Jonathan Pierce looks funny ngl
-
These are fun. Probably as good as stock IRl can be.

Yeah, probably. It'll be a while before I get back into DSL. The lack of component options in Stock makes things much simpler and easier.
Here's Cartman:
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
He initially was going to be a HW overhead spinner, but the design would've been ineffective in the HW class
Then there's Angry Video Game Nerd, one of the original Youtube let's-players.
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
Adorably enough, this little bot hops in the air every time his weapon fires. A bit of a design flaw, but it's not worth fixing. I like the design as is. Small bot with heavy hammer.
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
I'll probably turn this into a MW in the future.
-
Wut, No Luv?
Here's Rick Sanchez. Might be my deadliest, most good looking IRL bot.
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
He can even self-right using his spinner.
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
The next bot is called Hard Pounding. He was going to be a SHW clamp-bot but was too difficult to design. So I just made him a poker.

Quite enjoy the extender work on Sanchez

Thanks, I'm quite proud of it myself.
Here's an upgraded BigJigglyPanda, equipped with rollbars and smaller flippers.

Here's something slightly less impressive, but kinda meme-ish:

I bet it's satisfying as hell to watch that roll back onto its wheels
-
It is.
I recently challenged someone to a stock IRL match to see who's the king of Stock IRL. He claimed to be the king and he had some skills to back it up, so I spent the past 2 days making my entries. Since he's already sent his bots, that means I can showcase mine, so here they are:
Bull Frog:
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
I TRIED adding a sri-mech, but it meant sacrificing the cosmetic extender-work that was necessary to deem this bot IRL. So, I decided to just add a sri-mech in the next model, if I ever plan to.
You're Boned:

A Judge-style axe bot. Good mix of speed, style and strength. Not sure about potency though. Unlike Bull Frog, this guy has a srimech, in the form of two bladed arms at the back that lift up.
ZiggityZagg:

This guy's the bruiser of the group, as well as my favorite one. His "srimech" consists of him running his weapon whilst turning at the same time, causing him to tumble back onto his decorated wheels. This bot is a lot of fun to play with. I will admit that he's a little bit of a try-hard design.
-
I might be kind of screwed tbh.
Bull Frog is cool

Thanks! Bullfrog was the hardest to make.
TBH, I went all-out for our challenge. I saw your remake of Ripblade and knew I you were good.
-
I fell your VS is the best-looking robot, I also like how you made up for having a wonky tribar on your HS by making everything angular.
-
That last one is awesome
-
Thanks!
Here's a make-shift walker design. It CAN function, but sometimes doesn't. It's really finnicky.
(Based off a DSL walker bot design I made years ago.)
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
Also made a MUCH more functional 4 pod shuffle bot.

There’s a bot like that in RedForge. I like your design.
-
Can you make a video of them working? I'm curious on how the first one works.

Unfortunately I can't make a video, but, I can give the bot file. The shuffler is easy to handle, but the walker requires patience, and again, tends to malfunction. But it IS capable of working sometimes. It turns fine, it's just moving forwards and backwards that's difficult.

It's awesome you made a walker and shuffler. I think I will copy the mechanism on DSL using DSL components for a different bot if you are comfortable with it, and then put the walker or shuffler I made for PVP or something if it's available

Holy...

Sure.
