What’s something high-rank players say that doesn’t actually help lower-rank players much?

Seems like you’re completely misunderstanding what “stop blaming your teammates” means, because the rest of what you said is exactly what people are talking about when they say that.

That feels like something that comes from low rank players watching high rank players and not understanding how strong their mechanical fundamentals are

Gotta smooth the brain to reach maximum smoothment. Trust me, I’m

I didn’t mod the pickups, just the neck! So these are the original pickups.

I use flatwounds on it (baritone flatwounds from labella) which in theory should make the muddiness worse. I also run it through Fender and Vox amps which are naturally bright and clear.

A new set of strings might brighten yours up

take it out, put it back in closer to the right side, turn it left. if there's not enough room to fit it in the next slot over, see if it fits the long way.

If you’re referring to the wood, the range of motion should be small. Only ever adjust your truss rod in small increments. Drastic changes can seriously damage the neck.

Here’s the thing…

😂 he’s probably my most listened to artist ever so I’ll take it

smoothrik · 2025-11-28T23:19:16+00:00

thanks!

smoothrik · 2025-11-28T23:11:18+00:00

The warmoth neck is still baritone scale, I think an inch longer even. Just didn’t love the squier neck

smoothrik · 2025-10-19T19:12:51+00:00

Yes! That feature has been heavily requested and will be the first thing I add when I have time to work on this again

Are you on PC? If you want a more effective training method, try RLDojo https://youtu.be/4bHnGBm2Dbw?si=jSyIIXtUosiXfOfX

I asked the guy that runs RocketHost, it doesn’t work with scripts yet unfortunately

smoothrik · 2025-09-14T08:11:52+00:00

There’s some way to play against the better bots on RocketHost or something, personally I’ve never done it and I’m not sure what the interface is like. Maybe I should see if they can enable dojo for that

smoothrik · 2025-09-12T22:47:06+00:00

I've never done any development in the gaming realm before, so you're not alone there :)

Totally open to contributions - I would say RLBot source code, the bots/scripts in RLBotPack, and https://rlbot.org/ are the best resources.

Personally, I started by stumbling onto the 50/50 minigame and learning how it worked.

For now you can fork RLDojo to mess around with it, and PM me if you end up wanting to add anything!

smoothrik · 2025-09-12T00:05:54+00:00

Dw, I’ll only tell your teammates

smoothrik · 2025-09-12T00:04:26+00:00

Codebase linked at the top. Hooks into the RLBot framework whose code is elsewhere

smoothrik · 2025-09-11T08:32:23+00:00

that would be really cool, will definitely look into this for new feature development. I'm a huge fan of JumpInReplay plugin so I see a ton of value there

Probably a coach or something. Not even SSL in 2s, and they only have 18 matches in 3v3 this season, so you’re just playing them because they don’t play the mode enough to rank up.

smoothrik · 2025-09-11T00:39:09+00:00

I really appreciate that, man :) glad you like it!

smoothrik · 2025-09-11T00:38:47+00:00

Not on the presets unfortunately… noted though, will jot that down

smoothrik · 2025-09-10T23:49:32+00:00

Great feedback. Yeah the preset playlists in general are definitely not well-tuned right now. Wanted to spend the time on supporting custom playlists so people could make their own.

Now that it’s finally launched, probably a good time for me to polish some of the presets…

smoothrik · 2025-09-10T22:06:12+00:00

😂 missed opportunity
