Might as well just use the RAT2#2 arena, they call it "The Tournament Arena" for a reason.  I think Badnik has a version with no saws, if you so desire.

I still like the idea of using a skinned BBEANS Arena, myself.

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.

Yes, that's the one I mean. Its low walls would give flippers and rammers a chance against spinners and axes.

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.

AWESOME  I like the skin, it's simple and doesn't upstage the pretty little replicas, but it's still good looking in its own regard.  Gonna start working on my design, I want it to be a surprise so I'll tell you when it's finished.

Sounds like an interesting choice, Badnik. What will you use for the disc?

Question: can I use the Bigger Max Sphere patch?  My robot is big, and I can't get a component in place without it.

Big? Now let me guess...are you entering Black Widow? That thing was bigger than Shunt!  ;)

No walker for me,  But my replica is pretty big in real life, it was over 2 metres in one of its dimensions.

I think I know which one you're talking about, but I can't for the life of me remember the name of it. I might just enter Shunt, for the kick. XD

I think so, most DSL tourneys allow it I think.
