Impulse (Yeaaah, original eh?)

Firstly, sorry for not updating the thread on the other coaster I was making, the vertex glitched and it was in the middle o the coaster so I couldn't continue it -.-
Anyways, this is my next one, it's UNREALISTIC, no inverted impulse coaster (thats not a shuttle, I think) can hit over 300 feet and 100 MPH. I can't post pictures yet but so far I have the launch up 340 or so feet, and it does a barrel roll then plummets to about 40 feet, right over the launch at a 90 degree angle to a 300 foot loop, so yeah, its unrealistic, BUT, I still was trying to make sure that it is smooth and the g's won't kill you. I'm making the supports and so far I'm near the first hill up. I'll post pictures when I get more posts, and insert you thoughts under herree. Thanks!

... no replies after 2 days, but I'll keep updating anyways.
Well so after the loop, it goes to a Immelmann (?) and then the first brake run. it goes to a 180 dgree turn back and enters a double barrel roll in opposite directions.
Pictures at 20 posts...

People aren't responding as you have no pictures up (I know you can't post them yet).

Just describing is pointless as we've no idea whether it looks smooth etc.

It looks incredibly misshapen and unsmooth.

Yeah, the supports are a bit OTT.

Have you used CTRL + G to smooth the coaster? Also...use more segments to make elements. It looks like you've only used a couple on every element, use more and it'll make it so much easier to shape them correctly.

Look on rcdb for similar styles of coasters to emulate supports.

Eh?
Misshapen eh?... Well I'll be darned...
Anyways, yeah I realized that while looking at the pictures...
Thanks though, I think I'm going to restart :)
Restart as in... same plan, but more time...
but it's not as bad as some other ones... and I've just gotten used to it, but thanks! I'll post when I've gotten some progress.

Just keep working at it. I've been playing No Limits for years and I'm still learning things about it. I've never been 100% happy with any one of my coasters (and I've made hundreds). It's one of those games where I don't think you can ever be perfect at.
