Great Job...

I wish Unreal Tournament 2004 (Unreal 2 Rev. A engine) was out. Not till Feb. most likely "when its done" :(. Its suppost to have lots of support for things like vehicals of that nature, but already has a physics engine that is by far one of the best (Karma Physics). If it was out I would of probally started working on a match simulator. Oh well, probally next year.

UT2003
What I can offer if anyone is intrested, I can make a map of the area and probally make it for DeathBall. Nag me with a PM if intrested.

i don't mean to nag, but have you made any progress on the program yet?

Re: USFIRST Simulator 2004 (Play the playingfield in 3d)
 

This is a great program. Wowowow, what a great program. Can't wait for your next release. *soon hopefully* :)

Re: USFIRST Simulator 2004 (Play the playingfield in 3d)
 

Theres an idea. Inspiration to make a Half-life map in svencoop. Reskin headcrabs to make small balls, Houndeyes to make big balls, and gargs to make robots! *evil, mad scientist laugh* :D :D

Re: USFIRST Simulator 2004 (Play the playingfield in 3d)
 

Sorry, we know youre probably busy with your own robot like the rest of us, but I was just wondering, when do you plan on letting us know when you update the simulator...i mean, you dont even have to, but at least let us know it wont be happening so we wont be anxiously awaiting...thanx

its been to long , id like that ;)

Re: USFIRST Simulator 2004 (Play the playingfield in 3d)
 

I have a feeling we'll be seeing a newer version at the end of build season, or just afterwards. Building a real robot takes time, ya know. :)

Re: USFIRST Simulator 2004 (Play the playingfield in 3d)
 

Yup, i bet he has got some serious work to do with the program or with their robot, anyways, once we have our robots functional then it will be time to try them out virtually ;) .... still anxious for the next release tho

You mentioned needing PHP programming... I'm your man! I'm not sure what PHP would have to do with the program itself but I could definitely make a mean custom website or a scoring system or something. I dunno. I made a high score program for that pinball game that ships with MS Plus and Windows XP (http://www.iamnafets.com/pinball/) which is kind of cool. What team gets the most points in 2 minutes against 3 other players. This reminds me of a Maya competition where you have to build robots to certain specs within Maya and then have like autonomous battles with them. So fun, but GEEEZ WHAT AN EXPENSIVE PROGRAM (not talking about free). There, I'm done rambling.

I agree with everyone else this is great.
The only problem is when im in class and should be doing work but instead playing this. Goodjob

Re: USFIRST Simulator 2004 (Play the playingfield in 3d)
 

It is really fun to fly your robot off the screen and then try to get it back by just imagining where it would be if your screen was larger. It is also fun to start in the center of the field, spin really fast, then lift off straight up while still spinning, and then waiting for it to come back down.

EDIT: I flipped a goal!

Re: USFIRST Simulator 2004 (Play the playingfield in 3d)
 

Well...i really truly honestly don´t mean to be obnoxious, but i´m gonna give up waiting for the 2.0 version of this simulator...taking too long, if you ask me! If its finished only after the competition it wont be as fun, u know???

However, I congratulate you for your efforts...it (the simulator) really turned out awesome!!! And good luck to your team...!!! -Im being too harsh, you probably have your own robot to deal with huh :yikes: & school too i suppose

L8R...dont 4get 2 visit R website!

Re: USFIRST Simulator 2004 (Play the playingfield in 3d)

Re: USFIRST Simulator 2004 (Play the playingfield in 3d)
 

Hi! This is my first post. Great program. I had lots of fun w/it. :D I was wondering, you have said several times that the new sim release would be out in a few days and it isn't! I'm sorry. :( I probably just couldn't find it. if you did release it, please tell me where it is!! :confused:
