You didn't say you were missing an actual fight, just bits the camera man thought was boring. I was thinking that ment stuff like the neiboughs robots and me trying to get Scarifier's axe working and tings like that, which we also missed some of as we thought it was boring too. The only actual fight we didn't get was the Arachnophobia vs Fragmentor fight because we got on tap was about 10 seconds at the end of the fight.
I have the robowars tapes here some where. I've got till 5pm moday to find it I supose.

Its made for a dvd player more as I have no idea what your computer has.
BTW Tim is there anything good you can say about this overpriced buggy disk. lol


First off if i didnt mention it someone els would and just thought youd like to know of any potential problems with the disc before you shipped the rest out Wink

Secondly as i have made it well clear the dvds rock Very Happy

Thirdly they are not over priced they are VERY good value and i think you should be charging $20 for them plus postage to all the poeple who are just putting in there orders Twisted Evil

And lastly i have copyed them 100.000 times and sent them to america where the robot market place is now selling them and i get 90% of the proffit lol Laughing

hey all,

got my robowars dvd's today and its nice but the menu doesnt come up.

Theres the whole intro of the robots deal with that hideous music and it gets to the screen saying robowars 2 etc etc and thats it. Nothing else, Tim says its meant to fade to a menu but it doesnt.

I was still able t watch some matches but its annoying that i cant get to a menu on both discs.

I am using a PS2 to play it also.

Seems to be a prob with reading menus on PS2 so will look into it some.
Dont know how many of you are just using playstation but worst am thinking could just remove the menus so you could watch all the fights and be able to skip through them. Dont know yet

just got our DVD today
didnt play in the TV computer drive wouldnt read it.
the dvd burner picked it up ok though.
the way the menu is done is weird and messes some player programs up.
and the 2 minute intro was a bit of a pain till i found the menue button in the player i was using

Youre not making any sense here Jake and congrats on finding the menu button. lol

Thanks to those that have shown their appreciation for puting this together.
Good to know some people are realistic and not egotistic.
It was done for your benefit after all as the alternative would have been getting nothing so thanks for the thanks.

So far no one has even mentioned any of the fights.
THeres about 9 fights that are edited from 2 video cameras.
Just wondering if this made it better or not, any comments.
I mean any constructive comments.

Thats cool. I can appreciate that the software I used is a couple of years old and that the new version would have probably fixed these issues but couldnt afford to update so had to manage with what I have.

Sometimes you can only work with what u have got but wil have to find a newer version of this software ultimately.

It seems that the playstation is an issue but someone has told me that it works on X box. Anyone else tried.

Picked mine up at the post office on friday... wow.
Realy clear, good sound, etc.

Maybe just a wide shot (or whatever) of most of the arena as possible during a rumble ?
Is there anything like this of Robowars 1 ?

Best $19 I have spent in a while... Smile

Hi Im In Scotland what are the chances of getting one sent this way ? I know that it is hard for a couple of reasons ,eg £ in to $ and all the postage and packaging all the way to europe , and i can only pay by check
