Maybe this will start... Maybe it wont.
 
RULES.
 
1. DSL HW
2. Cluster bots are not allowed.
3. The brackets and battles will be in heats like robot wars.
4. Replicas have to work like the real thing (although some replicas may be allowed to pass this rule)
5. Walkers can be 1200KG, shufflers do not count.
6. Only robot wars replicas.
7. Some BFE allowed (chassis height and shape, but it has to be like the real thing)
8. No AAM, Zero G or Narmour.
9. No stacking batteries, control boards or air tanks.
10. All other glitches are allowed.
11. No metal hinge wedges.
12. Skinning is allowed but you have to send me the parts for it to work.
13. 4 way fights.
14. No multibots.
15. Cheatbot2 is allowed.
16. There can only be one replica of each bot (meaning if I enter Napalm you guys cant enter napalm or if S_M enters The spider you guys cant enter the spider, basically you have to be quick)
17. No making replicas of bots that are already in DSL.
18. If a havok the match will be reset, if another the bot who havoked loses.
19. No added metal hinge wedges or skirt wedges (Look at Cassius 2 from replica wars for an example)
20. Custom components ARE allowed but they are not allowed to be overpowered and you HAVE to send them to me with the bot. Overpowered components will be disqualified.

Anything I've missed?
 
Heat 1
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
 
Heat 2
 
1.
2.

7.
8.
 
Heat 3
 
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.

I've gone for 16 bots because it usually takes a long time for me to get entries.
 
Also, I lost the previous Robonova arenas due to a computer virus a while back. If anyone has the R2 arena could you please send Thank you.

Why no battlebots replicas?
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: Badnik96 on November 04, 2010, 03:59:08 PM
*Will probably enter Double Trouble once this starts*

And are skinned parts allowed?

You should go for 24 bots, than a losers melee to find the fourth finalist (the 3 heat finalists fight each other in a rumble), replica tourneys fill up fast.
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: Stagfish on November 04, 2010, 04:17:15 PM
Skinning will be allowed but i'm not sure about 24 bots, I dont like Ai'ing much.
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: GoldenFox93 on November 04, 2010, 04:26:01 PM
Well, you can safely bet I'm entering! If it's DSL RW Reps, I'm in.

Post by: GroudonRobotWars on November 04, 2010, 04:33:53 PM
I am probably entering Plunderbird 4.

Too many rep tourneys ATM IMO

Post by: SteveM4 on November 04, 2010, 05:52:21 PM
Are bots from the earlier series allowed: series 1 - 4?

well I agree, they have had a sudden spike in popularity (I blame Badnik :P)

but saying that is like saying too many DSL tournaments about yours..

good to see you still using my logo too

I believe, that cheatbot2 components are allowed?
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: Stagfish on November 05, 2010, 02:23:26 AM
I changed the rules about cheatbot2, they are allowed but a chaos 2 part isnt allowed on a chaos 2 replica ect.
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: JoeBlo on November 05, 2010, 02:40:31 AM
just use the traditional "no making replicas that are already in DSL"

what Joe said and I`ll enter.

or if S_M enters The spider you guys cant enter the spider
^LOL^
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: Stagfish on November 05, 2010, 11:48:29 AM
It was an example.

Anyway the rules have been updated.

Although there were very small amounts of spinners in robot wars except in the last series.

nah, just do we Ai or you
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: Stagfish on November 06, 2010, 10:43:28 AM
I'll Ai, although I would prefer if the entrants Ai'ed as it will save a lot of time.

Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: Resetti's Replicas on November 06, 2010, 03:48:37 PM
You've got 12 yes answers.  Wait till it reaches 16, maybe 18 to be safe.
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown

You'll have another yes if I can enter a battlebot replica. :P
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: NFX on November 06, 2010, 04:41:38 PM
Which Battlebot rep are you wanting to build? =P

Would I be allowed to make a Corkscrew II rep?
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: GoldenFox93 on November 06, 2010, 04:49:32 PM
I think you would be. I mean, Corkscrew did appear in the Commonwealth Carnage event, did it not?
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown

Root Canal or Brutality depending on if I can get Root Canal to work.

Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: GoldenFox93 on November 06, 2010, 06:46:35 PM
And I've finally decided the rep I'm going to make. I've made the robot itself, and now I'm going to skin it.
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: Badnik96 on November 06, 2010, 06:57:21 PM
May enter Mini Morg in this too, depending on how it does in RA2EW.
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: GoldenFox93 on November 06, 2010, 07:26:58 PM
Entry sent for approval. Nary, you're going down.
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: Resetti's Replicas on November 06, 2010, 07:28:20 PM
wait, we're sending entries already?
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: GoldenFox93 on November 06, 2010, 07:35:23 PM
Come to think of it, no not really. Still, my rep worked well in testing, so I thought I'd sent it early to save myself a job later.
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown

You can't completely circumvent the Signups stage, GF93. =P Not even someone with a rep building record such as yourself.

Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: NFX on November 06, 2010, 07:52:34 PM
It's cool, I get them. D'you think I should enter with Comengetorix, or build a better rep?
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: GoldenFox93 on November 06, 2010, 07:53:46 PM
I say enter with Comengetorix, I think it's a fantastic rep!
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: NFX on November 06, 2010, 07:54:36 PM
So I shall. Unless I can make a better one.

I could enter Shunt! =D
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: GoldenFox93 on November 06, 2010, 07:55:21 PM
No, Shunt'd be better as a house robot. Or for Sumo events.

"Lobster in Reverse!"
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: NFX on November 06, 2010, 07:57:43 PM
But Shunt took part in the House Robot Rebellion. =D I just want to enter it into a tournament.
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: GoldenFox93 on November 06, 2010, 07:58:35 PM
I still think Sumo might be a good idea, you know.
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: NFX on November 06, 2010, 07:59:24 PM
Alright, mum, I'll put Shunt away...=P

Post by: Stagfish on November 07, 2010, 05:23:43 AM
Ok, Theres sixteen people wanting to enter and my rules have been finished (I think) so i'm going to put the green tick.
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown

NFX YOU MUST ENTER SHUNT
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: NFX on November 07, 2010, 06:57:15 AM
I will either enter Shunt or Comengetorix, I haven't decided yet. Probably Shunt, though, just for a laugh. =D

The bot you sent me has a front lifter and a flipper ontop, I can either Ai one of them or Ai both of them except they will flip at the same time.

Wasn't the nose on an axle?
It was a lifting front panel mounted on two axles either side of the front wedge.

Just wire them separately (Fire1 and Fire2, weapon1 and weapon2) and use OmniMultiZone.py.

I'm not really a fan of the Tabletop arena for tournaments, because it makes the combat too random in a 4-way melee (small arena with no sidewalls means that all of the battles degenerate into pushing matches.) 

Perhaps consider using the Replica Wars arena?

Thanks NFX. Did you like the paint job? It's a part of the bot I'm particularly proud of   :heart_smiley:
 
And Stag, I like the sound of a three-way final. If it's Ming 2, Diotoir and Bolt from the Blue, I'll laugh  :D

Thanks mate!
I look forward to seeing how it does in the arena, with a lifter, a flipper, and a ramming spike at the back for winning on points if necessary. Unfortunately didn't have the space to make it jab, but I made up for it by putting some extra propulsion in the front- two extra drive wheels on ants underneath the nose   :P

Also, do you know what you're entering yet?

Do you mean the one from BBEANS6?

@Stagfish, inside the "arenas" folder, each arena has its own folder.  It's just like skinning components, you will find some bmp's for the floor, and various other objects.  Word of advice; don't paint the floor black or the robots will blend in and be hard to see, use light grey for best results.
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: GoldenFox93 on November 19, 2010, 02:41:54 PM
Yes, that's the one I mean. Its low walls would give flippers and rammers a chance against spinners and axes.
Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown
Post by: NFX on November 19, 2010, 02:43:03 PM

I found the RA2T2 arena extremely easy to reskin, you just change the .bmp files. Remember that the floor gets mirrored in the game for some reason. I can't remember how I edited the file path names in the GMF, though.

Title: Re: Robonova Replica Showdown

The Judge Burst may havok if your flipper clamps down on another robot.  Always use the Spring Loaded if you can fit it.
