Title: GTM World Cup 2020
Post by: Jaydee99 on March 05, 2020, 01:59:20 PM

(https://i.ibb.co/GJJt7MZ/GTM-World-Cup.jpg) (https://ibb.co/pPPR2KH)
(Bad logo ik)

Can't remember when the last World Cup was, if there ever has been one

So I plan to make a tournament where GTM members send in their robots in honour of the country they come from.

How tournament will work:
A knockout bracket for each country that has a member with an entry
The winners of knockouts go through to another knockout bracket
Up to 5 havoc restarts, robot will be disqualified after 5
Reskinned RW2016 Arena OR Reskinned Trauma Pit (Unless I can make a custom arena OR someone wants to make one for this)

Build Rules are as follows:
DSL 2.2 IRL Edition (Download here: https://gametechmods.com/forums/downloads/?sa=view;down=495 (https://gametechmods.com/forums/downloads/?sa=view;down=495))
IRL Heavyweight (800kg)
OBJ, BFE and CF are allowed
Skinned components are allowed as long as they are separated (do not overwrite the original)
No clusterbots

You AI unless you can't and then I will for you



Entry details:
No limit on entry spots
]
One entry per member
I will be entering (sorry)

Any tips or advice that would help the tournament would be much appreciated

What if multiple people from the same country want to enter? Can’t some of those people help represent other countries? Example: I have Israeli dissent, so I could maybe represent Israel.

Please read the first post again


I'll dumb it down though, there will be a knockout bracket for every different country. The winners go through to the main knockout bracket

Hadn't though of this, if you wanted to then yeah


Good thing noone is from croatia :muscle but infact depression as its a sh**hole country:

If you're the only one entering from Croatia then no need for a qualifier
I am letting people choose

Possibly the worst (most meme) ruleset I've seen over the past 12 months 😂

The standard tournament season ruleset was created for a reason, you know. Consider using it.

I'm trying to change the rules on the first page but gtm keeps screwing up my text
Ok changed, still no multibots allowed that has not changed

Much better, although RIP my plan for an 8 mech disc ring spinner. Reminds me of International Wars (https://gametechmods.com/forums/tournament-archives/international-wars-sbv/msg735060/#msg735060). Looking good!

Why is this the first RA2 tourney I’m interested in entering? I need to build Hell-Bent on every platform, so I guess might as well start on the RA2 version now.

Although signups are not open yet, I have received the first entry. However the robot doesn't work and when edited the robot doesn't move (sorry Kaiser I won't spam your PMs anymore lol)
On a more positive note, skinned the Trauma Pit:

Helping out rather than just insulting, if he has anything better then why not.
But I expect nothing less from Kix.

Anyway, as we're using the DSL2.2 IRL Edition (download from here: https://gametechmods.com/forums/downloads/?sa=view;down=495 (https://gametechmods.com/forums/downloads/?sa=view;down=495)), Kaiser's entry has been accepted.

I get what you're going for, but the floor skin is too contrasty and bright making it harder for people to see bots. If you wanna keep the atlas theme, maybe go with a old-school sepia map (like the one pictured below)?

Cool it's just some people don't want their bots made public which is completely fine
That's to say we get past the signups stage

As far as the arena, it'd be nicer if it wasnt stretched and such low res. TheOrcCorp might be able to give your the resolution of the OW arena just as a reference given its high quality

your original file has to be the same res or higher, otherwise it just looks blurry/stretched out

i really think you should just stick with the default skin at this point tbh
