Hi Guys.
The WRL tournament will soon be underway.
Here are the rules for nostalgia:
Rules:
1 No cheatbot2 robots allowed.
2 If a robot causes a Havoc Explosion during a fight and it results in the other bot(s) losing, then the bot that caused the havoc explosion may be disqualified depending on its reputation. (So if it’s caused a havoc explosion before, then it will be disqualified but if it was just an odd thing, then it will be excused and it will have a rematch)
3 All robots must follow the realistic design rule.
4 Robots are allowed a maximum of 2 weapon systems or more depending if they run on 1 control.
If a robot uses glitches, then it will not be able to enter the competition
5 Robots who get destroyed by the House Robots by staying in the HRZ for more than 10 seconds will go out, but if the house robot attacks when the robot hasn’t been in the HRZ for more than 10 seconds and they get destroyed, then the robot will be judged up till the point when it got destroyed.
As it says above, it will have some House Robots in it.
It will be like Robot Wars, First round of the Heats, 3 way fight.
Then, its 1-on-1 All Or Nothing Combat (You lose, your out!)
I'll try and get some pictures and videos up ASAP.
If your new to all of this, then dont worry, feel free to enter, i feel for you (Im kinda new)
I have talked it over with ACAMS, before any of you ask.
It will be AI.
You can AI your bot if you like, just send me the Bindings.py script for your bot to me.
If you dont know how to AI, then i will gladly do it for you.
The tournament will start sometime next year.

Urjak- Purple Pest

Bye Guys!
Wham
-
Wow, sounds cool. I would definatly be willing to enter.
-
Cool, thanks!
-
-Rules 3 and 4 do contradict (burst stacking allowed but realistic rule)
-I hate house robots
-What's with that rule 4, maximum of two weapons?
I'll still give it a try. Great that ACAMS allowed it.
-
Ok, then maybe im a bit wrong.
You'll have to get used to the idea of House Robots, as they will give the thing a unique twist.
Your allowd a maximum of 2 weapons as thats pretty much the AI limit.
Burst stacking is staacking thing on a connecter on a burst, like on ACAMS video.
Its my first hosted event, so wether it will be any good is far beyond me!
-

Burst stacking is stacking thing on a connecter on a burst, like on ACAMS video.
1-Only 2 weapons on a HW? You mean weapon systems, not components? ( Because nearly all DSL HWs have more than two weapon components).
2-That's not the realistic rule if two components overlap by burst stacking.
-
1-Weapon systems, thats what i mean.
2-Ok, ill change it.
-
Okay, I'll enter the one I have in RAW now.
-
House robot, What is it ?
-
a big robot that is in the arena in the robot wars events. it attacks you if you go next to it and sometimes freely.
EDIT: Joe, I would consider the arena/rebuilding it before entering.
-
Mutant Dragonfly 7 shall enter.
-
The arena will be the RA2TT arena.
Im making the house robot right now, i'll try and upload pictures ASAP.
-
Acctually, could someone make me an arena for it, please?
-
I'll still give it a try. Great that ACAMS allowed it.
It is still a LONG ways from being approved.....look at the last several posts. this is just the break the ice post and the date will most likely change. I still see several rules to work out.
-
I'm in.
-
I suggest that this tournament and all future tournaments be 2 out of 3 (like BBEANS) Single Elimination......tournaments lasting 4,5, and 6 months is starting to get boring and old.......especially with new people wanting to start a tournament every week.
-
I'll give it a go.
-
Why do you morons keep saying that.....you have not seen the arena....you have not seen the house bots.....heck you don't even know whether it will be 2 out of 3 double elimination......2 out of 3 single elimination.......or one loss and you are out....OR WHAT!
This tournament will not start untill ALL the rules are plain and clear and AT LEAST one of the current tournaments completes.
Besides, who thinks WhamettNuht (https://gametechmods.com/forums/member.php?u=3196) is smart enough to make the house bots stay in their corner untill you are in the hazard zone for 10 seconds?
HUH? HUH?.......ANYBODY?
This Tournament is not well planned and I am afraid to say the ELBITE tournament needs details worked out too.
Finish the current tournaments as soon as possible then worry about new ones.
-
All I said was I would be interested in it. Jeez
-
I would like to see the arena too.
-

Well, let me tell you ACAMS.
Ive hacked tha game so that the AI's dont go after me at all!
So, whos the idiot now, eh?
And as for you other guys, thanks for having interest.
I'll try and get as much information up as i can ASAP.
Cheers!
-

I would suggest not pissing off ACAMS. Especially when you need his approval for a tournament...
-
Uh oh...
I dint mean it like that, well, its self defence, really!
ACAMS, I know your not an idiot, but it really hurts me when you take me for some nobody... (although, i guess its true, im an only child and i live in Essex, which is like some latin word for Crap Hole)
WHY DONT ANYONE TRUST ME, WHY?
If i can run my own You Tube series, then why cant i do something like this?
-
Don't go emo Wham. Just do your thing, and PROVE us and ACAMS that you're worthy/useful. You'll get respect here only like that.
I have nothing against you but it's kinda like a guy that says "my bots are good" and that doesn't showcase anything.
That said, you already have support from several builders here.
-
I love you acams. have my babies plz.
-
Thanks Naryar.
Im making a video at the moment of the arena and House Robots.
I'll work on it later today or tommorow because im going to my cousins Confirmation now, so i'll see ya.
-
(And please, goose!)
-
I honestly don't care what the tournament is like. I just love competions, and the chance to show what I can build.
-
I would love to see a vid of the house bots just sitting still and then charging violators who cross the line. I would like to know that my stupid AI bot does not attack the house bot and ONLY goes after the bot it is supposed to.
I would like to see the rules updated and one of the other tournaments finished so this one can start.
I am all for tournaments and plan on joining future tournaments, but the rules must be clear and we can't have two tournaments starting a week and one finishing every six months. If we are gonna have this many tournaments starting they will need to be single elimination and over quick.
-
I want to be in the rumble too.
Btw, The registration isn't til Dec. 1st, and by then, BBEANS and Raw will be done and ELBITE will be starting.
-
how about...nO?

I actually have a basic Idea of how it could work. put a hit zone(like the saw/fire turn on zones) in the arena. "if not in zone pretend other bots are being counted out".
He could use mostly recycled code.

[/COLOR]He could use mostly recycled code.
I think it's do-able too. *Weird timing, cause I just spent 4 hours figuring out how the immobilization coding works.* Goose is right... can be do-ed.
-
COOL.....I start sh** for 2 seconds and it gets you smart guy's working for 4 hours!
I doubt goose could make a bot exchange if he tried!
-
I thought he tried over the summer.
-
This should be moved to Epic Fail in Off Topic :tongue:
-
I think Whamettnuht is planning for the house robot to be human-controlled. That makes it easy for for the house bot to sit patiently until a bot enters the zone. You can also easily change the AI's priority so they ignore human players.
-
but if the house robot attacks when the robot hasn’t been in the HRZ for more than 10 seconds and they get destroyed, then the robot will be judged up till the point when it got destroyed.
This may need an explaination then!
-
What if it gets counted out though?
-
What if?
There sure is a lot of "what if" at this point and time, but like I said I am all for tournaments, but I don't want to hear any crying later.
The rules need to be updated before entries start is all I am saying.
I also see several problems with ELBITE Tournament and want to see it done as smooth as possible and as quick as possible as it looks like it will be a long tournament as is. I plan on joining both of these tournaments and will have my entries ready soon.......BUT I don't want a SHW house bot attacking me and I WILL EXPECT my AI bot to avoid the hazard like I would. (which I know is possible, I just want to stress it)
-
I don't want either, Robot Wars was unfair enough and it would be a cheap win for the bot just to push the opponent into the house robot.
-
I can picture coding that would enable the bot to :
1. sit/only move in certain areas,
2. keep itself from being counted out,
3. attack any bot that came within a certain radius of it, and
4. go after any bot undergoing 'immobilization coutdown'(ACAM's idea).
CB, I didn't think of it being 'User-controlled', I thought it was AI. But could be wrong.
Nar, I agree, some; like when that bot attacks the players arbitrarily. But having it 'AI-ed' (no human bias), and having it sit there like a lurking, pro-active 'hazard' seems fair to me....
.
-

Really? What problems must I resolve? I'll fix it as soon as possible.
-
I see you have edited the rules and they look nice. The only thing I am worried about now is the time it will take to do three tournaments in one.
-
someone should recreate robot wars...
-
Yes, i will be controlling the house bot (Wow, i go for a few hours, 2 and a bit more, cousins confirmation and school, and you guys have mannaged to produce 2 more pafes, lol!)
Um, I mannaged to get it so that they dont attack my robots, but i dont really get what your talking about with the AI-s avoiding the HRZ, and besides, the HRZ are where the robots start!
Can someone PM me on how to do it, please :-)
Im quite busy for the MINUTE or 2, as im doing homework (Yes, im still in school!) and then i might be working on my REAL LIFE robot with my dad.
-
Say, if i send someone my HouseRobot, then could they do all that house bot ai stuff?
Infinitenertia: I was planning a DSL Robot Wrs for YouTube way back, but didnt really get round to it. (Which doesnt say that i wont do this!)
-
I think there should be a better method to implement the way the house robots acts during battle.
It should be based off of a random generator in the coding (perhaps roll 1 out of 25), and every time that "1" shows up, the house robots would enter the fray and attack everyone. All the other variables can limit it to just staying in its zone and wait for other bots to enter it. Of course, it would re-roll after every event so you would never know when they would attack.
-
You were right, CB; User controlled.
But I agree with Gig on this one. I think an AI would be much more unbiased (which is what I didn't like about RW's house bot).
W-nut, it's you tourney, and you can do as you please. The AI/py to do this is possible but would take some time and effort.
-
Whatever the case W-nut, I'll enter.
-
Thanks guys!
All i need a a complete How-To guide on doing it and then i'll be ok!
And how do i make the bots avoid the edge of the arena? (As thats where the main HRZ's will be) Or at leats not enter thier Start Zones again.
-
I want to try... but is there an unwritten rule about being too "Newbish" to enter? I think I should start somewhere.
EDIT: I didn't necessarily join in August, but I left my old account inactive for too long. I joined in September last year.
-
No, all newbies can enter, you need to start somewhere!
Be prepared to take on the big guns, though!
-
I'm in.
-
I'm in, I've already made a killer heavyweight rammer in DSL!
-
I still can't find a good bot to enter...
...Possibly Grim Ripper 4 (to be built and i have the design in head right now)
-
Okay, I just need a finalisation of who is entering.
Thanks.
My dad, the houses computer expert, im second, is trying to fix my computer right now, basically he's tuning it again, then copy my files over and if they have a virus on them, then a friend sent me a link for a programme that deletes viruses, esspecially the one i have.
When thats all done, ill be setting the tournament up a bit more.
-
Please post a pic of the house bot when you can, and also, I think that 10 seconds is to long. maybe 3 seconds or so.
-
Well, i'll have to start the house bot all over again, so be patiant.
-
the house robot should just be a chassis with a huge horriszontal spinner on it. let it just hang in the corner so bots can just be pushed onto it
-
Hmm, that idea has some potential in it...
Im thinking along the lines of Matilda, or Dead Metal...
-
Post a list of entered people on the first page please.
When should we send our bots.
-
Man Manu this is called a "hazard". not a "bot" that will get immobilized in 15secs if it can't move.
EDIT: i'd like to see the house robot too
-
Oh, bots should be sent by atlleast the 1st of December.
But you can send me your design now so that i have time to AI it. (And have a look around it, so i know what my house bot will be, fwahahah!)
-
I will wait for the house robot.
-
I think I am going to have to pull out of this tournament. But I could help if needed.
-
Oh, why?
Trust me, i really am working on the house robot and deciding on the arena, but ive had that virus for the last 2 days, and then before that ive been on holiday.
Okay, if you want to help me, you could start by finding what to do with this House Robot AI'ing.
-

I'll also enter as soon i've seen the house robot and the arena too.
I trust you but i would like to have the most adapted bot.
-

Agreed 100%. Really.
-
Okay, still working on him.
-
yo i already got my bot built and i am entering
-
I'll enter.
-
if there's any spaces left i'll enter :-D
-
meh whatever. put my name down. doubt this will start though...
-
I'll enter I guess. Get ready to get run over!
-
I just need to build something unusual (but still deadly) and it'll be good.
But Wham you should really show us (or at least tell us what is) the house robot.
-
I join too!
-
sign me up if there's any spaces!
-
I got a bot built, but there is one problem. It has a spining disk that narrowly touches a battery. The amount could probably be taken out in real life with a pocketknife just shaving the plastic. Is this okay?
-
I'll enter a NON CHEATED bot
-
Don't get all worked up about it, I might not even use it. I need to know if the arena has sides or not. I could change it if I wanted too anyway, and it would blow your bot out of the water most likely anyway. I have other bots if Wham says
1. No, it is not allowed
2. there are no sides on the arena (i.e. closed arena)
-
I got a bot built, but there is one problem. It has a spining disk that narrowly touches a battery. The amount could probably be taken out in real life with a pocketknife just shaving the plastic. Is this okay?
Yes, this is okay, but in real life it might damage the battery, wouldnt it?
Anyway, send me your entries ASAP, okay, so then i have a head start into AI'ing.
Thanks
-
Haha, just missed it.
Put me down in reserve =P
-
Okay, anyone interested in the rumbles?
-
I am.
Can you sign in for the rumble if you're already in the normal matches?
-
I'll enter teh rumble. I have a modification in one of my bot designs I'd like to test out.
-
Okay, both of you are in seperate rumbles.
S32, are you willing to enter the main compotition aswell?
Plus, could i use you point scheme as a reward for winning the tournament?
-
I would rather not submit a bot until I know what the arena is going to be. Will it be the normal Wild Robots arena?
Also, I want to be in a rumble!:biggrin:
-
OK, i've put you down for rumble 3.
The arena has been requested by me, and im hoping for:
Combat Arena:
4 pits in corner
Hammer
house bot zones
Plus, i hope for the walls to do 10 or so damage if a robot gets flipped into the wall.
-
I think you can use different bots for classic tournament and rumble?
Also I'd like to know the rumble's arena.
-
The Starcore Arena is for you! Wide open space, with two flippers in the center. Also two hammers at opposite corners and it is also easy to OOTA another bot!
Perfect for honeymoons and Family holidays. Book now at System Airports today!
-
ROFL!
The rumble arena will be the same as the classic tourn. arena.
The robot that you use in the normal tournament will be the one that you use in the rumble, oh, hang on, i have an idea! (BRB!)
EDIT: Back, go to page 1, it has idea on there.
Get PM'ing each other! :-)
-
Put me in for the rumble.
-
Anybody want to team up with me?
PM me if you do.
-
Remember, your team needs a name, so that i dont have to call you both names, its one name (Makes life easier for us all!)
-
This is indeed going WILD.
Wham i'll just suggest making a "super tournament" like ELBITE (classic deathmatch tournament, rumble tournament, and team battle tournament) if you want to go like that. But no need to the same chassis setup rule.
... oh and who's my friend here?
-
OKay, then its now a SUPER TOURNAMENT!
I've asked Gigafrost if he can make me some decals as a reward.
-
And do we really need to enter the same bot for all tournaments?
Because i difficultly see a bot that will succeed in all of them.
-
Unless you're fighting a lot of bad bots.
Hey, Could I team with you Naryar? I have a few Ideas for the team match.
-
Yes, thats the point!
A robot might not do that well in the main tournament, but he might do better in the rumble, like Kan-Opener for example.
It gives robots a chance to show them selves more.
-
Reier, wanna do a team?
Edit: My bot is sent.
-
Oh, Man! Sorry SB, but Urjak already asked me. If Wham holds the tourney again, we can team up. Sorry.
-
I would be willing to parcticiapte in the Rumble.
-
Thats okay.
Does anybody else want to? Please someone, I really want to do a team. My bot will be on my showcase soon for those who want to see it.
-
Oh well i'll go with S32 then.
-
Brilliant. I'll prepare the PM.
-
Nar & Sys32?!? The world's coming to an end!!!
-
The world's coming to an end!!!
You just gave me an awesome team name. World's End?
-
Nar & Sys32?!? The world's coming to an end!!!
yea.....no.
I love team tournaments.
Put me on the list.
-
I will do it
-
I would love to do this kind of tournament!
just not with you as a host.
-
Hey Sage, you want to be a team?
-
Hey, thanks guys, remember, i need you to tell me both members and your team name in a PM, ok.
I have Somebody's robots, remember, all bots must be in by 10th December.
Oh, and thanks for the nice words of courage, infiniteinertia! ):-(
-
Is it alright if Urjak & I are on a team?
-
Reier, you and Urjak are a team, just need team name.
-
We're still thinking about it, we have a few names & need to select one.
-
Ok.
-
Me and Sage are a team, no name yet though.
-
We're still thinking about it, we have a few names & need to select one.
Y'all can be "Born Losers" and fight to get to see which one of you is Brutus Thornapple.
-
I'll enter. And where does it say anything about teams?
-
Where theres 4 places.
-
I'm making a team with S32.
-
Okay, so i think thats now 3 teams, i need 1 more, HURRY!
-
Crap... I should have entered. TTB would have been ftw.
-
You can still enter if you like, do you, gig?
-
i'll do the rumble and the team thing. Anyone want to team up?
-
I am a team with Sage
-
Yes, we know! XD
-
i would team with you scrap, but that might be unfair. somebody already asked me...
-
OK I'm in. I'll team up with scrap
-
Not sure exactly what is going on with the teams. But I am open for a team mate.
-
Me and Jules are a team.
-
I'll enter. If I still can...
-
Team mayhem is supposed to be 4 teams bt i don't know if Wham can increase the size.
By the way, y'all know that we are allowed only 2 weapon systems on our bots?
-
I'll enter a bot. I'll try to do better than last time (i.e. more time and testing invested).
Wham, I don't know if I've the time to do all you asked for a new arena (like the 'RAW Arena'). But I'll try to make something for your tourney.
-
Team mayhem is supposed to be 4 teams bt i don't know if Wham can increase the size.
By the way, y'all know that we are allowed only 2 weapon systems on our bots?
By that do you mean there is a limit to two weapon motors.
-
Thanks Mad, just something simple would be good, but it has to have pits! XD
I can try and add 4 more teams, if needed.
Plus, if your bots arnt in by 10th Dec, you'll be dissqualified from the tournament.
Your bot is limited to the amount that i can AI, which is probably howmany motors on 1 controll, and maybe a shrimech.
-
Wham what are you talking about? You said "2 weapon systems maximum"!
Or I didn't understood the weapon limit thingy..
-
I just did, sorta, its hard to explain.
EDIT: I wont be doing that much for tonight, as i'll be sleeping round my nans, and she doesnt have internet.
-
So it just means that you can't have more than 7 different weapon controls?
It's pretty much obvious. I think none of the bots will use more than 4 controls.
-
Exactly
-
DSL Heavyweights = I'll Either enter a T O U R Q E 2.0 or Some random Popup...
@Scrap- PM me what you think we should enter. I got some Team Names as well.
-
Ahh, Hell. I'll enter for the Tornament also.
-
Sorry I haven't sent in my bot yet Wham, I'm finalizing & Aiing it.
-
Infernal Contraption 3 will just need some more tweaking and i will enter it.
-
Hey Naryar, would "Team Starcored" be a good name?
-
No.
I thought to "World's End" (see Reier's post about our union) or even "Team Unprobable" "Team Unpossible"
-
Any body willing to be my teammate?
-
wait? what the heck? Do you have to have a team mate? why has everyone got a team mate?
-
Sage, what do you think we should name the team?
-
No.
I thought to "World's End" (see Reier's post about our union) or even "Team Unprobable" "Team Unpossible"
Or Team Rejection. After all, out bots are based of Rejected's creations.
And I've seen Reier's post about our team, he's just acting smart.
I've got a pic of the new version, I'll PM it to you, and send the bot in tomorrow. After about 10 other enter, I'll make the bot public.
-
Good grief Sys32, I wasn't making fun of your team. I just thought it was sort of ironic how you guys teamed up when you argue so much. No offence or anything.
-
quite a lot of your posts have been attempts on my self-esteem.
I just don't trust you, is all.
-
...Ditto, sorry.
-
Sage, what do you think we should name the team?
Team Sage.
-
I'm looking for a teammate...
-
I'll be team-mates with you RS.
-
@Man Manu: you need a teammate only if you want to enter the team mayhem. See first page.
@S32: Team Rejection looks neat, although we could come up with a catchier and more fear-inducing name..
@Wham: You Wild Robots site definitely needs to be fixed.
Mad + R0B0 = Robotic Madness!
(that means: I'm soooo dead)
-
@S32: Team Rejection looks neat, although we could come up with a catchier and more fear-inducing name..
Strong
Titanium
Armoured
Robots
Could
Obliterate
Robots;
Even
Destroy.
Starcored.
-
oh well, judging from your impressive wordplay skills, i suppose we can take that.
Did you get my PM?
-
Yup. I like what you did.
-
On the first page where the list of people entering is, those who have (Bot recived: No) next to there name means just that, those without it means i have there bots.
And, if you want to enter the Team Mayhem or Rumbles, you'll have to enter the main compotition first.
-
Team Sage.
...
Team Wild Maybe?
Also, clean out your PM box I can't PM you.
-
Hi!
I'm new in Robot Arena 2, and I want to join this championship.
Whamett, can you explain me what I have to do? How I send you my robot?
Thanks! (I'm a spanish user :biggrin: )

Hola
Si tu REALMENTE nuevo, entonces yo sugeriría conseguir un poco más expirience en RA2, antes de entrar en estos torneos, la vuelta al foro, le hacen unas preguntas sobre el robot de toma y, a continuación, al llegar al Beetleweight sobre el foro, me gustaría sugerir a continuación, entrar en .
-
I don't know Spanish at all, but i understand two things in his post:
-Wham, post count doesn't matters. He doesn't needs to be a BW to enter a tournament. (I can be mistaken here)
-I agree, Keln, you need to gain experience before getting in a tournament like that, or else your bot will get quickly owned. No offense.
Show us what you can do.

The google traduction sucks, I dont understand anything xD
I am not totally new, I play the game for many months, and I a experimented player.
The next text in english please :biggrin:
-
Ok, well, if you have DSL, then i'll explain the rest, if you have stock RA2, then download DSL, and get used to the components on there.
-
I can answer all questions about sending a bot. First of all, Do you have WinRar? You need it to send a bot.
-
I have DSL, and I have WinRar :approve:
-
If you want to enter this tournament keln, then ok.
But, the bots that ive had sent in so far are LETHAL!
-
Can you show me any robot who can participate in the tournament?
-
Sorry, all robot designs are unseen untill the tournament, or unless the creator shows you them selves
-

Only I ask for an example. What limitations have the tournament, I want see this.

-Wham, post count doesn't matters. He doesn't needs to be a BW to enter a tournament. (I can be mistaken here)
I don't think it does, because Condor33 & I were both AWs when we entered RAW.

Heres my entry. (https://gametechmods.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1076&page=4)
Its near the bottom. This will give you a basic example of what to expect.

Keln:
Build a:
DSL Heavyweight
Make sure you build to the weight limit, and not over it.(800kg)
Make sure that it is realistic; realistic means that it could be built in real life, which means that nothing passes through anything that it couldn't in real life. (motors, batteries, etc.)
Make sure that it is good.
Look through the other showcases for tips, tricks, and ideas.
Start a showcase to show us your skill.

Thanks Somebody, thanks R1885. Now, I am starting to build my robot :bigsmile:
-
Agree 100% with Somebody.
Also, don't use any replica-only parts for your bot. Sorry if you already don't, but just for checking.
-
what? Hang on... So my entry can't use hypno blades, typhoon spikes or hypno wheels?
-
I think Naryar only ment the overpowered ones.
-
The cheatbot2 ones.
-
oooh. Well that's ok then
-
No CHEAT replica parts.
Edit: whoops, didn't see the 2nd page.
-
Matthew, me and Naryar have both agreed for team Starcored as our name.
-
Who's Matthew?
-
WhamettNuht is an anagram for Matthew Hunt.
-
I need help... (I had'nt created the robot :smiley: )
(http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h241/k3ln/u.jpg)
How I change the direction of the motor?
-
See the bolts on the motor? When you click them, thay become the atacthment point. Also, why do you have Domianter2 up there? He uses custom parts.
-
in the components picture on the right, click on one of those see through tan things.

The robot had incluyed in DSL mod. Only I use the robot to show an example for my problem.
Sage, see here:

The second picture is another motor that I can change the direction.

*AHEM*
-
*AHEM*
Is the unic doubt I have from the game :biggrin:
-
Ok, thanks all for the help! I solved the problem!
We meet in the tournament!
-
I prefere Matt Hunt, but please just keep on calling me Wham please, thanks.
Ok, if you REALLY want to enter this tournament keln, then i'll put you down.
-
So, any other people singing up for this?
-
Wham, I am pretty sure that me and Sage will be "Team Stormbreaker" (based on the Alex Rider series)
-
I liked that movie.
-
I take it that those who want to enter have entered.
I know im being a bit of a nag, but when your robots ready for combat, send it to me.
If your new, and dont know how to send me your robot, just PM me.
If you have sent me a robot, and have made a new better version, then feel free to send me the new version, but im only allowing 3 resends, then thats it.
Ok, thats all of the news so far.
Wham
-
I just need to put my bot in a .rar, then I'm ready.
-
Anyone want to be my teammate?

https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/Mutant Dragonfly VIII.rar (https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/Mutant Dragonfly VIII.rar)
I could PM it to you if you want, but my computer's not working right, And it might be a while.
-
I have been drowned in Homework lately, but you will get the new version soon.
-
If I don't get RA2 up and running again. I wont be able to get a bot ready.
-
same with me; homework wise. ill whip something up soon.
-
Yep, homwork is a pain for me!
Thanks those who have sent me they're robots, i can start AI'ing them.
Remeber, its DECEMBER 10 when sending in robots finishes.
EDIT: Do you guys get half-days like i do?
We only have to do 4 of our normal 5 lessons, i love Fridays!
-
Lucky bugger!

I KNOW! XDDDDDDDD

Here's my bot, The Crippler
https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/3101The Crippler.zip (https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/3101The Crippler.zip)
EDIT: I'll be in rumble 2 as well
EDIT 2: Anyone wanna team with me?
-
The Crippler ([sarcasm]or shall i call that The Crippled?[/sarcasm]) crashes my game...
I hope it's not custom parts.
-
Mine aswell, you'll need to do a re-send.
-
Have you installed that Robot wars Replica pack?
If not, That is why your game crashes cause of the flippers
I'll enter an other bot which is better
https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/Da Mauler.zip (https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/Da Mauler.zip)
OFF TOPIC: Wham, I love your replicas of roaming robots. PLEASE DO IRON AWE 5!
-
I get the feeling that it still uses custom parts. It crashed my game.
-
Crashes my game again.
NO CUSTOM PARTS IN A TOURNAMENT. DSL 2.0 ONLY.
Thanks.
Ill enter a NON CHEATED BOT
EDIT: VV QFT at S32's post before mine VV
-
The crippler crippled my game. And Don't use parts from the robot wars pack!
-
From looking at the still from the HQ, its also unrealistic.
-
GET THE 2.1 VERSION THEN
-
Oh sh** I've done it wrong again.
-
GET THE 2.1 VERSION THEN
I did, and it still crashes my game. If your using custom parts, it will still crash, regardless of 2.1 or not.
-
What a coincidene, i used to have Alphasims RW Ai pack installed!
Do you like my new replicas or the old ones?
And yes, this tournament only allows DSL components.
Im hoping for Iron-Awe 5 to be in my pack, if i can get help with a flipper component.
-
Found out what was wrong
I WAS USING ODD DRIVE MOTORS!
https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/1983Da Mauler.zip (https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/1983Da Mauler.zip)
-
Nope, this is your 3rd re-send, 2 more that dont work, then im disqualifying you from the tounament.
EDIT: This one also crashes the game.
-
MY LAST GO!
https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/Da Mauler FIXED VERSION(note if this does not work I withdraw.zip (https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/Da Mauler FIXED VERSION(note if this does not work I withdraw.zip)
-
:D I finally PMed my bot Wham. Hope it works...
Geo, I noticed the frenzy hammers on da Mauler. Are they the normal ones or did you accidentally use cheat hammers? I don't know if this will mess up the game, but it's a possibility.
-
MY LAST TRY!
https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/465Da Mauler FIXED VERSION(note if this does not work I withdraw.zip (https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/465Da Mauler FIXED VERSION(note if this does not work I withdraw.zip)
They are not cheat hammers, they are 50kg
-
Hey! It didn't crash my game :D. Looks like you're still in the tourny.
EDIT: Wait a minute, it's unrealistic. Fix the motor so the hammers don't glide through the wheels.
-
not realistic.
-
More real now
https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/Da Mauler Improved.zip (https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/Da Mauler Improved.zip)
-
I don't see any problems, except that the hammers still hit the perm motor. I don't know if that's considered realistic or not so I'm going to leave you alone xD.
-
Sorry, but im affraid its un-realistic.
Better luck next year.
-
@Genocide: Sorry man.
@ShadowArts: Want to be teammates?
-
He's still in.
Nope, this is your 3rd re-send, 2 more that don't work, then I'm disqualifying you from the tounament.
Those bots did work, but just were unrealistic.
So, all he needs is a Realistic bot.
-
flame-throwers are fine right? even though the game messes them up.
-
S32-Ok, im giving him 1 more chance, if it isnt realistic, then thats it.
Sage-Flame throwers would be ok, but the game messes them up.
You can try a robot with a flame thrower, if you want, but will that alone be any good? (Ive had some of the scariest spinners sent in so far, HS, VS & FBS!)
If it messes the game up, then you'll have to do a re-send.

i thought this was a team thing?
personally, i don't really care if i win this tournament. just wanted to make a flamethrower.
when i said the game messes them up, i meant the flames. you see what i mean. doesn't mess the actual game up.
-
There is one part setup like RAW or BBEANS, and one part that is team, and 1 rumble part.
-
With the amount of Spinners I'm expecting to see in this tounament, I's say it's just like RAW.
-
Yeah... Again HS and VS with god damn huge ass dual perms and a 150kg+ weapon on it? And possibly 2-3 Pinball clones?
Boring. And not that scary IMO...
-
Heh, that remends me of the entire LW starcore devision.
-
Well, im trying to desperatly make this as unique as possible (House bot, you lose your permanantly out, 4 rumbles instead of 1, and team mayhem!)
With my game, the flamethrower (Bobs) make the bot go into a big black void (Literatly)
You know what i mean, the game messes it up, sorry!
Im hoping for not that many spinners, but ive had 5 spinners and 1 poker (Reier)
-
I'ma work on my bot tonight. A popup.
-
I am entering a saw bot, not a huge Dual-Perm VS. I will send it in soon Wham.
-
Thanks, thats what i like to here, a bit of a difference!
Also, if anyones interested, i have done some cartoon robots, heres the link:
http://s367.photobucket.com/albums/oo114/Team_Hunt/Cartoon%20Style%20Robots/
Please comment!
-
Not bad, not bad at all.
-
Thanks! :-)
-
:D Those are niiiice. Especially with the limits of Powerpoint. Hehe, sorry.
-
Im using Powerpoint!
-
Since nobody has commented on the prizes, I think that a go-through to the semis of the next tourney would be the best prize.
-
Agreed.
-
Hey, Apparently My points are a prize.
Hmm...
-
Crap... Sorry for such short notice but I think I am gonna have to pull out of this tourney. For ELBITE's sake of being started on time. I don't want to do the same thing I did with the release of RA2GE.
Buuuuuuut, I can still do the prizes. I was thinking about creating a golden sawblade, some pre-released RA2GE LU decals, A custom sound pack, and COLOR wheels (sequel to my COLOR extenders)! Let me know what you think...
Ignore what I said in red... I found out that I still have some time. I will talk to Scrap for team names.
-
OHH, golden sawblade decal, me likey!
Text on 3 different ones with the event names (Main compotition, ect.)
-
How about the Golden sawblade as a part?
-
______
0..|..0
.._|_..
The scales are even (I like both ideas!)
-
Hey, do them both, then give Second place members only one, which they can choose.
-
______
0..|..0
.._|_..
Again
-
I've finished the golden sawblade and the grand prize decal. The winner is able to win both the blade and the decals but 2nd and third place must choose a decal type (It's actually a badge I made but with different color variations). However, vista is refusing to add in an extra point in the sawblade for its other side (like DSL's chewblade) and is causing errors... I might need to send it with only one point unless someone can help.
-
Windows XP man, Vista is useless.
-
Agreed. I will send them to you some time today.
-
Windows XP man, Vista is useless.
i has vista. i like it. no problems yet.
-
I mean for scripting RA2. It is a tad unstable considering that Vista ALREADY has to automatically configure itself in order to run XP games. I don't know why but I even decompiled the DSL version of the chewblade, re-compiled it (no errors) without changing anything, and played the game. It shows up but when I click attach, it crashes.
It only does this when I add a second attachment point into the coding.
Perhaps mad knows about this issue (-.-)
BTW Wha- You don't mind if the sawblade is sparkley do you? Like, glittery...
-
Hi All
@Gig-Good to hear that the awards are done, thanks!
No, i dont mind if its sparkly.
BTW-My cousin has Vista, and the game works fine on his LT.
I have XP, which of course works!
-
Xp ftw!
-
wtf?!
-
Xp as in Windows XP
-
Yes Gigafrost, the realm of which you speak of is very true.
very harsh, very maddening, very true.
-
@SB-Oh, i get it!
-
I don't mean to be naggy and rude and all, but, since the deadline's coming up...
Did my PM ever make it to your inbox? I sent my un-AIed bot in it. If you'd like I can easily just post it here xD.
-
Havent recived anything yet...
-
10th December? I should focus all my bot building into Infernal Contraption 3 then.
-
Okay, I re-sent my bot. The problem's probably just newbie error.
-
I'll send you soon my bot.
But, before 10th Dec, can you on the first post
- show the house robot (if any)
- tell finaly which will be the arena.
i do not found that in all these posts.
Thanks.

Send me this gmf too, and I'll help.

Wham can't disclose this info yet cause I'm currently working on some of this stuff for Wham.... seeing what can be done in the time frame available. So really the balls in my court more than his right now... Maybe I could employ your services Phil.

I don't know much about arena scribbing, i've just invest AI yet. what are the special needs for the house robot ?
maybe it shoud be an immobile (or very slow) bot, never count down immobilized, with a 'laserGuided like AI' (not tested yet) . It has not to be too strong, this is championship, the winner must be the better bot, not the more lucky one. We should also told the AI of the challenger not to fight the house bot, but this may need to touch 'all AI'.
Another yet developped AI for a house bot should be pillar.py
about my available time until 10th dec, i've only got time between 12h and 14h for the next days, all my evenings are reserved yet and i work by day.
Or maybe, a simple fight, in a simple arena may please all the challengers and there's no much work to do !
-
Wham, did you get my entry?
-
Sent my bot in. According to the front page now, plus me and H@z, there are seven people in the tourney. C'mon guys, you have a week to get your bots in.
-
C'mon guys, you have a week to get your bots in.
Send mine, whatever the fog around this tourney.
-
Hey all.
You'll have to understad that im in UK, so when im asleep, you guys are all typing away!
Most of your bots are in.
Website STILL hasent been made by my dad, so, if it doesnt get done, i'll either:
Make the goddamn thing myself (It WILL be crappy!)
Ask someone for webspace (ACAMS perhaps?)
Or post the fights on a thread.
Good bots so far guys, keep em coming!
If your bot isnt sent in by at least the 8th, im sending a reminder to you, if not in by the 10th, YOUR AUTOMATICALLY OUT! (Unless i check my messages on the 11th, and it was sent in on the 10th!)
-
You might as well just post the fights on the thread. It's not worth the hastle of making a new website just for posting some fights on it. Although it would have been better.
-
http://www.zymic.com/free-web-hosting/
Also, you get your own domain name.
-
Umm, Wham? I teamed up with ShadowArts, not H@zm47.
-
Oh, ok then!
On your PM you said H@zm47!
-
Odd, because I checked the PM I sent you, and I did not see H@zm47 on it.
-
HR will be completed by tomorrow... I can make custom HRs right?
-
When is the bot-sending period over?
Come on guys! Send those bots!
-
SB:
Im being strict now, if your bot isnt sent in by the deadline 10th Dec, im disquallifying you from the tournament.
-
@R1885:Ok, well at least things are sorted out now.
@Gig: Yes, it can be custom, if you mean like a custom head for it something like that!
Plus, due to Naryar, it must be 800kg.
It needs to be good, as i want it to last for at least 2 series (Im planning another one, next year, maybe a bit earlier, due to the holdiay season)
@H@z:Thanks for clearing that up for me! :) (Yes, SB, it is 10th Dec)
-
Just don't accept the really crappy entries if you want it to be good.
Or if you want a Spinner from the West entry for the fun, it's your choice.
-
SFTW robots are good, as it makes i more fun!
EDIT: I was talking about the house bot about it being good!
-
Wham, InfCon 3 will be sent that evening.
-
I was really asking if the HR are going to be custom, like they don't have to be like the robot wars bots. Anyway I understand.
-
@Nar:Nope, no mail
@Gig: Oh, ok then. Do what you like, i dont really mind!
@All: In adddittion to Naryar's reply, COME ON, SEND IN THOSE BOTS, THERES ONLY 1 DAY LEFT, IM SENDING WARNINGS TONIGHT!
If your bot isnt in by 2morrow evening, im DISQUALIFYING YOU from the tournament, FOR GOOD!
EDIT:
Warnings have gone out, im suprised at how many people havent sent there bots in.
If you have a good reason like family business, work or you just forgot, then thats ok. (If you forgot, i dont blame you, i forget everything, except this!)
And Gig, i've sent you one too, but if you dont enter, then thats ok, i'll understand, due to making the prizes and decals.
The rest of you who have warnings, GET A MOVE ON!
-
I think that you should give extensions to some (Naryar, etc.)
-
EDIT:
Warnings have gone out, im suprised at how many people havent sent there bots in. GET A MOVE ON!
i think many people have doubt about this tourney. You annouce an ambitious program, but by the way we did not have seen many things (arena, HR).
My advice : Start your championship soon, even with 10 or 12 bots. that's enough to have fun.
Then people will see you can conduct such a challenge to its end, and better than all, you'll have gain a precious experience which helps you and will attract people for the next season.
-
Arena, HR are not ready as yet of.
If it should come to it, an extra week will be given for those who havent to send in there bots.
-
I sent mine in, and I would like to be in the Rumble.
-
Why the heck we would be supposed to send our bots that quickly if the tournament is half-ready?
I must repair my DSL.
-
Wham, am i allowed to change my entry?
I reckon i could build something better in a week
-
I'd like to enter the rumble too.
I also think you should consider giving extentions to certian members, like Naryar. He has a legitimate excuse that he could probably not avoid. Plus, it would be a shame if we had no chance for a re-match.
If I were you, I'd extend the deadline to Sunday at Midnight PST. That would give people the weekend to send in their bots. Having a deadline on a Wednesday is very awkward.
-
OK,
@H@z: Yes, you have a few more resends available.
@Nar, R0B, ect: Ok, the deadline is now Friday next week.
On the Saturday im gone, so Friday is the last chance.
-
I will send in the HR soon enough, I was thinking of a Huge SHW walker/drive bot made out of custom parts. I'll see how it turns out and send the components and stuff to you...
-
Cheers Gig.
And Nar, DONT have a go at him for it being SHW, HW house bots are hard!
-
Yeah, I suggest 2 weeks extra, so that most people can get their bots in.
-
if its not to late ill enter.
-
Sure
-
I decided came back one dang day too late!!!!!! GAHHHHHHHHHHH!H!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry for over use of exclamation marks, but I felt it was the only thing that could show my frustration. !!!
EDIT: Wait, apparently we have more time. Okay.
-
lol okay that was pretty funny..
-
I'm getting out of this - my DSL seems to be ruined and I don't even know if i will play DSL again.
And this just because of the god damn Teams folder...
-
Ooooo...Sorry about that Nar. I feel sorry for you. =(
-
... Crap.
Anyone wanna team up with me then?
-
Hmm, thats a shame :(
-
... Crap.
Anyone wanna team up with me then?
I'll do it.
-
Sure.
-
LOL it works now, i imported Hazcon into the Rookies (AHEM), but it i create a team it doesn't wants to import a bot there!
I have an idea, will keep you informed.
-
Same happened to me, you have to create the folders for the new teams yourself.
-
I'd like to enter a rumble Wham
-
I hope my bot doesn't get raped lol.
-
ill do a rumble this is gonna be great. ill have my bots as soon as i get them AIed.
-
I hope my bot doesn't get raped lol.
Depends of your bot.
Anyways, my DSL works but it seems i've lost most of my bots, i might re-enter if this does suits you Wham. HnM 3 is gone and this is pissing me off, but not InfCon or HazCon.
The deadline is next Friday right?
-
Yep.
Good to here you may be entering.
I'll put your spot in the tournament as Pending Definate Entry. (You may/may not enter the tournament)
Things like Arenas and HR are nearly done (Cheers Gig and Mad!)
-

Yea, Wham, I live in Mass., and we just had a bad ice storm that knocked out major grid lines along with allot of local ones too. My house has not had electricity since Thursday night. So I'm just struggling to keep the pipes from freezing right now. I'll get back on the arena to finish it as soon as things become less chaotic here.., hopefully a couple days. I'm at a neighbors house now. K-3's situation is probably not much different.
-
Since we're off topic... LOOOOOOOOOL at the n00b's head in the wafflemaker.
-
That's a very productive Wafflemaker!
-
If you don't mind Wham, I would like to change my entry.
-
Was kill343 hit by the storm too?
-
Totally off topic...
But western MA got hit the worst, down southeast here we didn't get it nearly as bad.
-
We're just getting our first snow of the year here. It should be about 3-4 inches overnight, and nowhere near what you guys got back east. The last really bad storm we had was about 12 years ago, when it snowed about 4 feet overnight.
-
Sorry to here about your weather situations.
If you want to change your robot, just send it to me.
The weather down here is just really cold wind, and i mean REALLY cold!
Every mourning theres frost on my schools sports field.
Any puddles have frozen over.
And the deadline has been changed to Thursday next week now, due to me going on the Saturday, so on Friday that gives me a final chance to AI any of your bots.
Sorry if theres any inconvinience.
-
NO! PLEASE! IT CANT BE TRUE!!!!! FROST ON YOUR SCHOOL FIELD?!?! NOOOOOO!!!!!
-
YES! IT IS TRUE. And if you were where I was on Friday you also would have seen nearly an inch of ice (total, as in, all the way across) encasing EVERY TREE TWIG. Then it started to get warmer, and it was raining ice in my backyard.
-
Only 1cm of snow this year, we had it last year, but the year before had 4 inches!
-
Its snowing here as we speak.:biggrin:
-
Wham, is it alright if I change my entry a little bit? It's only a modifacation to the hammer setup, everything else is where it was.
-
Sure, go ahead.
-
Thanks, I'll send it ASAP.
-
Ok guys, your time for sending in your entries is...
UP!
Thanks for all those who have sent me your entries, those who havent, then you brainless gits!
See Ya next year!
Then the tournament will start!
Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year!
Wham!

You have 17 people in the tourney, and I can see this working easily with 18. Are you going to out a byebot type-thing or leave a space open in one of the 3-bot battles?
What will is going to happen with the extra spaces in the rumbles and teams also?
-
Hey-hey-hey, wait for me!
I just sent to you InfCon 4 - and to fill in the blank, i'll enter the third rumble.
InfCon isn't a rumble bot, but still, i have my chances (if the other bots don't gang up on me).
-
And 18 people is perfect for the bot rounds that Wham wants.
-
Hey, I guess that means our team is still valid! Wham, waiiiit!
-
Just gained some electricity, so I'll have this arena by 1st half of next week. Go ahead and organize stuff, Wham.
-
Aw man, I should have sent Crashman...
-
Aww man! I thought it was end of december...
-
when does the bloodshed start approximately?
-
Well I wonder why he DISAPPEARED now that the tournament is ready.
-

Glad to see you back.
For my bot i think i sent it to you via PM, but if you didn't got it, i'll AI the thing, especially as i've got time.
Whatt's the deadline + house robot + arena?
-
Oh yes I am very anxious to see the house robot.
-
Oh yeah..... there is a house bot. :|
-
Sorry i havent had much time to work on it all.
Mads working on the Arena, so ask him on how its going, and Gig is working on House Bot.
-
I could help you with the HR construction if you don't have time.
-
You do know that me and naryar did make a team...
-
If anyone else wants to be in a Team I'll do it.
-
If anyone else wants to be in a Team I'll do it.
I'll team up with you... my bots in already.
-
Well, i changed my mind and will enter HnM 3, because he's actually invertible unlike Infcon and makes seriously more damage.
Will be sent that evening.
-
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!
-
Ok.
Happy New Year All!
-
HnM 3.2 has been sent... even more invertible (although a really crappy bot if inverted), more realistic, and more armor!
-
Send us the splash!
-
And the House Robot!
-
I wont be doing any more tonight, I dont feel that good at all.
Plus i start school tomorrow, so getting things sorted out will be limited.
-
Updates?
-
Updates?
House bot and arena are looking very good. Just some final tweaks to the wall size and house bot programming and then SpyGuy will finish it up with some nice graphics. I'm working on making the walls (can't say) and (can't say). Then Mad will make the walls (can't say)-like with (can't say) and (can't say).
So it's coming along. And don't bother Wham, he says he's not feeling well.
-
Shoot 'em on over to me, Sage - I'll set ya up right. Do you want to give me a broad guideline to go by, or carte blanche to do what I think would look good? Either way, I'll probably do like four or five different ones, let you take a look at 'em .....
-
You already have it, SG. But I'll send you the whole thing tonight.
Had a couple things to discuss with you about it.
-
Ah, okay, so that was the floor ...... sent ya a PM about it.
-
Thanks guys. and tell Wham that I hope he fells better.
-
I feel better know, thanks.
It was just a cold coming out.
Update on how things are going:
All bots are nearly AI'ed
The Arena is nearly complete (Thanks alot Mad!)
New update on prizes, the 1st place winner will get seed No. 1 in my new You Tube series, Wild Robots Series 3 (aka, Wild Robots Returns) which will start after WR Live!.
If you want to see the old series of Wild Robots, go to You Tube and type in Wild Robots, then all my vids should appear.
The tournament will be starting soon, thank god!
-
Awesome!
-
I decided to enter, just for the sake of it!
Also as a reserve, just incase.
You'll be glad to here the arenas practically done, AI'ing is also nearly done, so the tounament will be starting in Feb 1st.
Good luck entrants!
-
Umm, Splash?
-
Yep, that would be nice to make a splash, and FINALLY the arena and the house robot.
-
House robot is in the arena file.
I'll try and get splashes done soon.
-
Good.
-
Please try to do it ASAP. I really miss having a tourney going on.
-
For now, im going to put the names of competants robots next to them.
If your name doesnt have the name of your robot next to it, i need you to confim it.
-
The arena is still in its final touches. I just finished up some camera work for better angles of the sides, and am going to work on texturing the walls. Mad says the programming is almost done, and the house robot is looking good.
-
My Name doesn't have it's corresponding bot.
-
Wham, I'm confused about what you just said.
-
Wham, It's MDVIII, not MDIVVV.
You can just call it MD8 if you want.
-
I sent the reskins to Mad - hope y'all got 'em okay .......
-
Yea, I did. Thanks,... and as always, excellent work.
-
Best name = Immortal Corruptor
Yes, it's Mutant Dragonfly VIII - and Urjak's bot is Purple Pest. (not Puple)
Also Wham, i want to enter into the last rumble.
-
Mine is Haunt 5.1.
-
@Sage: Ok, thats good to here. I'll be using orbit quite a bit, so bair in mind i dont have a scroll wheel on my mouse. Plus some angles of the pit would be good.
@System32: Your robot is...
@Somebody: Im putting the names of robots next to thier makers, so that i can now claify all the bots and get rid of the messages in my inbox! Thanks for telling me the name of your bot to clarify.
@Reier: Typo problems fixed.
@SpyGuy: If you want the WRL logo i did to put on the skins, just say.
@Naryar: Ok, Best Name in awards after, and you have been put in the third, so that it is filled.
-
My bot is Facemelikeafool.
-
Ok thanks.
-
Yah, shoot 'em over to me, or set me up with a link.
-
Mine's Archy 6 not 4, Wham
-
Here's the new 'HouseBot' arena. The HB is totally in the arena.GMF, and run via its arena.python, thus leaving it open to 4 bot brawls. I cannot begin to explain how much work this arena took. And I'd like to give kudos to SpyGuy, CB, Sage, Tovaner, and Serge for beta testing and feedback; to SpyGuy and Sage for skinning.
It is a square semi high-walled arena:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/49436Arena_1.jpg)
Some features:
1. Dangerous corner pits that start closed,... but open at 2:00:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/15689Pit_1.jpg)
2. Poly 'Blue-Sheild' glass walls for easy viewing.
3. It has 2 housebots. They both are invertible and randomly roam the arena:
The first is called 'Drill Sergeant'. It is a 4WD SHW HouseBot, with 2 nasty horns and 1 large, spinning drill bit. It can quickly dismount tires and components.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/97759Drill%20Sergent_1.jpg)(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/78733Drill%20Sergent_2.jpg)
The second is called "Collateral Damage". This is ACAMS' cool Jeep with monster wheels that will climb most any bot. It is also a SHW 4WD, but it has a huge bush-bumper mounted on the front, which is pneumatically fired out at obstacles in its way. Whatever is in it's path will become 'Collateral Damage':
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/25910Collateral%20Damage_1.jpg)(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/92317Collateral%20Damage_2a.jpg)
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/58681Collateral%20Damage_3.jpg)
4. One of these 2 HouseBots will randomly appear at the begining of each match.
5. The HouseBot moves on its own randomly: Forward/Reverse, Left/Right.
6. Each bears and wields its own potent weapon.
7. If Hazards are turned off, the HB will remain immobile and up off of the floor (out of the action).
8. Nicely positioned 'Static' cameras(thanks Sage).
9. Conveniently positioned 'Watch' cams that 'zoom in' on the action.
There are some minor adjustments to do on the arena yet, so don't ask for it till the tourney is finished.
Mad.
BTW:
1. I'll do the same with the GUMBA Arena....
2. There's an 'ACAMS HouseBot' Arena coming., where ACAMS.bot patrols certain zones of the arena.
-
Cool!
So the HRs are sort of like the rover in the mars arena? (Exept they can do damage.)
-
Wham, set me up with the WRL logo. You have a site I could d/l it from, or you just want to email it to me?
Glad to help anytime on the skins, Madiaba.

if you're talking about the logo in the center of the arena, I actually made that... is there a different logo?
-
That housebot thing is cool as heck.
Maybe it could be done with the RW arena for DSL V3....
-
Oh yes, I was wondering about that. It would also be cool if we could use the housebots too.
EDIT: BTW, when can we expect the splash
-
I like this very much. Nice work guys
-
SG, I have those skins, they're for the "ACAMS" Housebot arena... and they're beautiful. NP. Mucho gracias. I'll PM you about some more dermatology. Send the bill to ACAMS.
Reier, Yea, they are like the rover in the mars arena, but they are cooler looking, have controlled tactics, are more powerful, and armed nastily(if that's an adjective).
BTW: There maybe a third HouseBot option in this arena. A Laser seeking security bot, called "Refried Beams". If you get in it's range, will lock onto your bot and sizzle it from the inside out. Hehe. Little more fine tweaking to do...
..
-
I'm sorry, Sage ... didn't know. Great floor skin. May I please have a copy of that one to add to my collection?
Mad, I think Acams is prob about ready to kill me by now, especially after the poster (thanks for fixing the link. btw ...). I mean, what other nasty and devious things could be done to his avatar .....? . o O (GIve me time, I'll figure something out ..... :p)
-
Arena is pretty good for my HnM and it was a best choice than InfCon 4.
Was expecting an open arena (seeing Wham's passion for RW), but the house robot was a HW at start !
...Whatever. Can't wait for the splash.
-
I personally like Hazards in arenas. Hazards are added for 'action' sake. These HouseBots are like moving Hazards, (which is what made them so difficult to tweak and code). Both BB and RW had Hazards that your bot should not come near, while RW also had Hazards that would draw near to your bot. Thus Hazards, that like AI-ing, add to the variables that determine the match's outcome. That's why some Tourneys have no Hazards at all. But many Tourney's do have Hazards, and now there are moving ones...
My one issue in RW, is that I didn't think it was real fair that a person controlled the HouseBot. This could cause, and at least imply, bias. Thus these HouseBots are programmed autonomous, meaning that "Let the cow chips fall where they may".
BTW: In the GUMBA arena, I put no Hazards,.. only a influencial field that tends the bots to interact/battle. The RAW arena is also without Hazards.

I didn't save the floor in a photoshop format, so i had to go through and remake it. But when i finished, I noticed it looked a lot better with a background! Anyways, i included both of em.

Bit of bad news.
I loaded the latest arena on my game, now when i open my dsl game, it gets to the first splash screen, then freezes my whole computer, i cant even do ctrl+alt+del.
This is annoying me and confusing me.
Ive gone through the possible reasons, AI, ect.
-
Wham, Don't fret it's not that hard. It works fine for me and the beta guys. Get me on MSN (with a mic.. hehe) and we'll get things where they belong again. Sorry, I assumed,.. I should have included a ReadMe too.
-
IDK wham... works great for me. lets see what i did. hmm... i opened the .rar, open the sounds folder, dragged all the files into the games sound folder, went back to to the main folder, open that, and dragged all those files into the games arena folder. i then went in game and pressed 'pittsfield arena' and it worked.
-
Did that.
Its probably the AI, i did add a new team, which i know how to do.
-
Wham is up and going again (AI-ing issue)...
Need more help here, PM me.
Go, Wham...
...
-
So when does the thing starts?
-
Any news?
-
AI'ing is all that needs doing.
Should start soon!
Arena pics, matchups, fight vids, ect. will all be in a new thread (Coming Soon)
-
Yay!
-
Sweet.
-
Can't wait for the splash.
-
awesome :)
-
Updates?
-
Well, ive been fighting a very bad cold for the last 3 days, but AI'ing is getting there.
I'll be making a new thread for all vids, splashes, prizes, predictions, ect.
EDIT: I'll be doing a Team Terror, so if anyone wants to pair up, just say.
EDIT EDIT: I'll be sorting mathes out soon, and i'll be maing the ByeBot.
-
These tournaments where the front page is always edited are always confusing...
I see Rumble 4 is empty. Does that mean it's possible to join, or is it already starting without it?
-
Yeah, I think some bots could enter the rumble.
-
Get well soon.
-
@Redl: Hmm, ok, if you're not on the main compotition list, you can enter the rumbles, just because im kind :)
@SB: Thanks! :)
-
Thanks, and get well soon.
I had to do a search on the whole thread to find out if the tourney was stock or DSL. : /
And what weightclass.
Don't say, I know now. ^^;
