Phantasmagoria Of Flower View - Dueling B&M Looper

[kimahri]

So, yeah... I made a new ride after a while.

It's a Touhou Ride based on the 9th game which is a Vs type shooter where there's 2 screens and you have to beat your opponent by shooting fairies on your screen to make little bullets on the other and charge your Spell Meter which, when filled to a certain amount, let you charge it up and send a pretty pattern of bullets onto the other screen. Thought it would be fitting for a Dueling ride.


Anyway, The ride is 2 B&M loopers named after 2 characters:

Reimu Hakurei (Red, White & Black)

and

Shikieiki Yamaxandu (Blue, Purple & Yellow*)

So far they both have a Dive Loop, Interlocking loop, 0-G roll and a interlocking corkscrew with an asortment of twists turns and other goodies.

*Supposed to be green Will change later

Update!

I've finished the layout and I've managed to make it end more or less in sync with very little tweeking. The landscaping is also pretty much done, all I need to do with it is hide a couple of bits sticking out and I've also started supporting these beasts.

Not really happy with the Queue's atm. I'm probably going to delete all of it and smooth out the landscape so it fits better and make a better entrance.

It looks to cramped imo

I do like how big the ride is though!!

^I think in a strange way it'll look less cramped when all the supports are up.

If you were to look at just the track a lot of wooden coasters, you might say that their layout was cramped, but because of the supports you see a big wooden structure that looks fine. Because is a huge ride, it'll need considerable supporting, and hopefully you'll get the same effect, but with metal.

Of course, I could be wrong :wink:

The coaster is cool, but it's not themed at all, and the queue is disgusting, so fix it .

Teeny Support and Queue update since I was fixing a No Sid for SVD error and that made me bored.

I have no idea how to do the top of the Dive loops

May swap the Entrance and exit round and cheat the exit be building it underground

Now lets respond to feedback.

The games this is bassed on get pretty cramped with bullets of death. Maybe this is a good thing :3
