Project Umbrella.

ARGH! I still can't use Wings I have no ****ing idea! And those tutorials are really crap. sorry!

 

[Lofty]

Xpress one word for your coasters, and I don't mean this ina nasty way but...

Ewww!

Looking good Insane!

 

[Hixee]

Anyways, I like the cartexture as is. It looks good.

Wrong, again.

I'd leave them as the default NL ones they're much better.

Insane - I agree. Wings is difficult, but then I'm sure once you've got the hang of it it will be easier.

 

[Xpress]

Why would I use that **** cartexture?

The thing is, is that it appeals to me. All that matters.

 

[Snoo]

Then why even post anything if it only appeals to you? No one wants to see **** that only you like.

 

[Hixee]

^Well said.

 

[Xpress]

This is an open site, is it not?

A little something I'm throwing together, to better my smoothing skills.

 

[SFMMMan]

^You mean your AHG skills?

 

[Xpress]

No, my smoothing skills. AHG doesn't smooth anything, other than the track bankings, if they're rough. I'm probably going to put this on NLDC, or give it to someone when, and if I finish it.

 

[Hixee]

I really hope it doesn't have two loops.

It's probably just the angle and it won't be a loop, but that second one looks shocking.

 

[Xpress]

Actually, it's like a "normal" floorless. Loop, Dive Loop, Zero-G-Roll, Cobra, Corkscrews/Flatspins.

That would be an interesting loop though.

 

[Hixee]

^If by interesting you mean painful then yes!

Dam after uploading this pic, just seen the supports in the backround on the lift hill.

 

[SFMMMan]

^What's wrong with them? They look a tad unrealistic, but otherwise, they look pretty good.

 

[Hixee]

^They do look a little wierd. I would suggest looking at Fahrenheit.

Looks pretty sweet so far though...

I have marked the points where you need to fix the supports, tho 2 on the drop should be moved so that the connection and track node should be straight.

Other then that, you can't use those LIM:s on the way up, you should change them (and the brake) to a chain-lift and remove the brake on the drop (add a deceleration force on the chain-lift instead).

The rest looks pretty good though.

Nonsense. LIM motors can be used to propel a train vertically. It's not impossible. Infact, far from impossible.

But a lift chain is more effecient.

Hixee, no it wouldn't be painful. Just feel a bit wierd. You need to broaden your thinking.

 

[Echoes]

Nice work all.

Insane, I really like how the supports wrap around the side of the drop. It will give it a more "claustrophobic" feel, I'm sure. :lol:

I'm afraid to say it Xpress, but that's my opinion. I think it would be uncomfortable.

True, but side mounted LIM's can't handle the curved top and bottom. So I still recommend changing it for a chain-lift.
