BUILD YOUR OWN BOT!


Hello All,
A new fun-based map for C&C Renegade is well on its way to being completed soon. However, its missing the most important things... The Robots!
As you can tell from the subject of this thread you've probably gathered what this is all about.

This map will be be released in different versions. The first version will be released in time for the next 3 Hour AOW presented by Warrior Nation and will just have robots(GDI) vs robots(Nod) style gameplay.
Versions after this will have pretty much the same format, however with more Arena features, bots, house robots & theme.

Who can take part in this?
ANYBODY! You don't need 3D Design skills, though it does help.
You can submit your robot design in what ever format you feel is best for you:
- 3DS Max model
- GMax Model
- A hand-drawn concept.
- A 2D Graphic Design Tool Software (submit as JPG, GIF or PNG).

Design
All submitted robots must have the following characteristics:
Weaponary (Maximum of 2):
- Saw
- Chain Saw
- Flame (limited ammo)
- Spikes
- Axe
- Hammer
- Spinning Disc
- Mace
- Drill
Please note robots with a Flipper or Crushing Razor will not be in the first version, but can still be submitted.

Body
- Wedge (though cannot be driven onto like a ramp, yet)
- Box
- Cone
- Other (If it looks good, its fine)

Style
Must be stylish as possible from looking really silly (comic-ful) to looking really mean and tough!

Armour (This is a perfect balance of strength + speed. Materials probably not accurate to the S/S numbers, reference only.)
This is scored on a scale between 1 - 10.
10 = Strongest/Fastest
1 = Weakest/Slowest
- Plastic (Strength(1), Speed(10))
- Wood (Strength(3), Speed( 8 ))
- Aluminium (Strength(4), Speed(7))
- Carbon Fibre (Strength(5), Speed(6))
- Copper (Strength(6), Speed(5))
- Stainless Steel (Strength( 8 ), Speed(3))
- Titanium (Strength(10), Speed(1))

Wheels
- Standard Rubber Wheels (2 or 4 or 6)
- Tracks
- Legs/Feet

Name
You can name it any thing you like, so long as it doesn't contain swearing or sexual references (Its a bitch ain't it?)
The bot and designer will be credited in the Readme.

Submission Format:
Robot Name:
Designer:
Armour:
Wheels (type and total):
Weaponary:-
(1)
(2)
Link to 3D Model / Screenshots / Concept:



If you create yours in max/gmax, you may add the wheel bones to it and test it ingame, however on submission I do not require the LevelEdit settings, just the model.


Don't think theres anything else to say except for, HAPPY DESIGNING!

Oh, and if you're wondering what the Arena looks like, take a look at this video I did about a month ago:

Good Luck,

Andy / WNxCABAL.

For those of you doing this, i created this saw blade for everyone to use. Anyone can use it, i don't need any credit.
It's available in .max and .3ds so can import it into gmax as well.

Heres a pic

Yeah. I'm waiting for kamuix's forum to get fixed before I release it. It's been done for about a week.

If I make a concept sketch of this bot idea I've got (Well, I'll make it in Unreal and do a fly-around video of it, but I can't get it out of Unreal and into Max) would someone make it in max for me? (This won't take long...)

In with Entry #3!

Robot Name: Walking Destruction (Yeah, that can get changed...)
Designer: CarrierII (Needs a manufacturer...)
Armour: Stainless Steel
Wheels (type and total): Legs, Four (4) Feet
Weaponary:-
(1) Thrustable Spike (Goes forwards, can be aimed)
(2) Saw Blade (Goes down when fired, can't be aimed)
Link to 3D Model / Screenshots / Concept:

I threw this together in Unreal, but I can't use 3DS Max to save my life, so if someone could reproduce it, that would rock, if you need wireframe screenshots or anything, I'll make them for you Smile

A 5.41 MB Concept Video

Enjoy!

Edit - I can't count... 2 entries before mine makes this the third...

How long did that take you exactly?

Plus, if you could post the wireframes and any textures used.

Wireframes comming up, errr, that took me about 50 minutes... (yes, the construction's of awful quality, it's only a concept) why do you ask?

Those textures were meant to be placeholders because the default texture in Unreal sucks, I'd use something nicer, but I'll get them out anyway.


Attached.

This will prove to be interesting, I would enter one of my robotic bosses form Renhalo, but I would have to make the a LOT smaller (and rescale a lot of animations and stuff like that).
