Afternoon, I recreated Thorpe Parks stealth recently and have a short video of it, I'd say it's the most exact replica remake of a rollercoaster I have made on rollercoaster tycoon3 and I tried to make it as real as I could. Check out the video and the others too,
The Information :
The height of the real ride is 205ft, my remake reaches 200.72ft, the top speed of stealth is a supposed 80mph, the remake reaches 80.75mph, obviously you can't calculate the acceleration in RCT3, but I'm hoping it's close to the under 2 second mark.
One thing I have noticed on other remakes is that when the coaster drops from the 205ft, it curves down to a airhill, many remakes made the mistake of putting the track just after the drop before the airhill as the same height as the accelerating runway, whereas the realcoaster, the track is lower than the runway before it curves up to an airhill, confusing I know but you'll understand.
I've never seen a decent airhill on RCT3 remake of stealth and mine is no exception, I would retry the airhill but what I've got is what I've got. obviously the real airhill dosn't straighten at the top but it was the approach I took to it.
The Supports: I'm relatively please with the custom supports I added to the remake as stealths supports are fairly unique and not like your standard TTD/KK design, please take a bit of close attention to them and tell me what you think.
Scenery: About halfway through the video you'll spot the entrance to stealth which is what I'm pleased with, it's all a bit out of proportion in terms of size but the general recreation is there, I wanted to spend more time on the station but it was getting late so I decided to wrap it up before I fell asleep as my RCT3 crashes when loading so when I make these coasters I make them in one go.
Lastly I am aware that the whole track is actually a dark blue before it merges into the white top hat, however I felt that black was the closest I could get to the dark blue of the real ride.
