Funky Hipster - Mega coaster with loop

[TilenB]

This is my 3rd coaster till date, originally, it didn't have the loop, there was a dodonpa-kind top hat instead of it.

Overall look of the coaster, supports on the first lift hill are 100% custom

Turn before the loop

Support sure look wacky, but I'm learning

First drop

Final helix

Coaster overall

Supports are like on woodies

Looks painfull but fun.

Yes, but for a 3rd coaster it's pretty good. What's with the long straight near the end, can't you add a bunny hop or something?

 

[Thekingin64]

What's up with the lifthill? It splits into 2 for a rather pointless drop.

Looks good though.

I know you are trying to be creative but if you eliminated that second lift section you could shift the entire coaster toward the station and then not have as long of a straight nothing track.

Also, are those brakes before the turn into the loop?

It's definitely not mainstream

 

[Thekingin64]

Corners near middle need banking, station is huge and that first drop is still pointless. Unless there as makeshift trims, the chains after loop aren't needed.

Chains don't work that way in NL anyway...they can only propel the train, not slow it down (as in real life)

They sure can, that's what the Deceleration value is for on the lift settings.

Sorry, but this is SO bad. You really need to work on your tracks a little more.

How constructive.

 

[Snoo]

Brake runs and MCBR's are 9 times out of 10 perfectly straight.. and 10 times out of 10 on B&M's.

How constructive.

I do hope that was intentionally hypocritical.

I just think that he/she needs to work on their track work a lot more. Using "I" for straightening and Ctrl (cmmd) + G on the curved segments to smooth transitions.

I'd also watch a lot of No Limits Coasters on YT to try and get a grasp of how to create some more realistic ones. For this, I'd also start making more realistic coasts than just fantastical layouts that sprawl everywhere.

Tah luv.

Who said that its B&M, its Hopkins
