Sue?

That is one of the people on my sisters soccer team. Heartbreakers is the name of the team, hence the name of the ride. There are 14 1-car trains for each person on her team. And sues player number is 1, so her car is in front. The numbers go from 1-27 but the numbers are like 1,2,4,6,8,11, etc. Any other questions? Lol! Thanks!

Dude sorry i'm just going to let them be...

I've tried the sky car top hat supports but there aren't enough pics to tell where the footers are. Sorry, plus it's already flanged. I know i said the top hat would be 85ft..turns out ti's 114ft

NLDC page has some mroe shots with the scenery which I don't feel like uploading. I made a station...which may or may not be too long, I mad eit in sktchup and someone is converitng it for me once it's converted we'll find out.

Station:

notice the clever Interpol logo windows :lol:

 

[A-Kid]

I like your coaster there. I really want sketchup pro, but it costs money doesn't it?

Wel peeps, another project is comming around the corner, or rather, around the mountain: Project Thunder Mountain My previous project, Goliath SFOG, is really rough in the helix, so I've decided to put if off for a while.

P.S. I am looking for people to help with theming around the coaster: Project Thunder Mountain Help Forum It is for CS members only, so I can talk to them live.

Not the final colour at all, i haven't had a play with that yet. This tracks being a right anoying thing to smooth and tunnel test though, damn thing.

That looks interesting. Here is a little sneek-peek of the progress on Thunder Mountain:


Looks cool, eh? Also, those are my first cartextures too.

 

[Jer]

well with Antics done I decided to sit back relax and build a classic.

and what more classic than a coma inducing, head splitting. skull bashing Arrow!

Of course this means scaffolding on the lift with I happen to suck at but thanks to andre I decided to build it all form scratch!

the first of 3 scaffoling blocks that will support the lift hill

First drop with the worst trasntition ever that gently reaches +1.4lats then suddently changes to 0.2!

 

[Xpress]

Hmm, those supports are just a bit too big. You should use the size 2 suports, which will look better. They'll still hold it up, but will look better.

 

[Jer]

Better man?

and now to show off mroe of the ride I give you...the only on arrow bad transtiton gallery!

^The surprise ending!

^the pile driver into double coma corckscrews

^ The 5g immelmann thingy of OMG I wanna get off!

i'm currently looking for testers...drop me an IM, PM, or E-mail

disclaimer: after riding ride I am NOT leglaly resposible for any neck, or back injurys you may have recived!

 

[Xpress]

Yeah, that's a lot better than before. Looks even more realistic. But that "Pile Driver" might be just a bit too much, don't ya think?

 

[Jer]

the lats go to 1.6 and they're still green.

then agian I modded my g limits to more realistic numbers

it was based off that lovely transtiton you see in the background

I think crappy track work is crappy track work, no matter how much you try to disguise it as "It's an Arrow! LOL!", and is just laziness on the part of the builder.

 

[Jer]

so it's laziness trying to make a ride look more like rides built company it was modeled after?

I know newer arrows like TT and X were heart lined but this is ment to be a classic. Of course needless to say it'll be good crappy trackwork and not crappy crappy trackwork, the transtitions will be bad but there will be as little pumping as possible and the g's will be realistic.

 

[Lain]

Oh. That's alright then. :lol:

I'm doing/done but can't be arsed with the supports a rec of one of the arrow clones, and it has similar characteristics.

 

[Xpress]

Hmm, if that turn has 1.6 lats, then that is going to hurt. Try to make it either longer, or higher to get rid of the lats to keep them under 1.2.

 

[Jer]

The lift scaffolding is done.

 

[Xpress]

That looks a lot more like a vecoma scaffolding. But it would look better if you connected them with the small "L" shaped beams, like on the top bracing.

 

[Ormerod]

Jer, I admire your patience, I cant be arsed supporting so I just make woodies

 

[Jer]

^^you mean connecting the sides? or connecting the tops of the scaffolding?

^thank you, it's a lot less tedius than it seems, it's jsut really reptetive and boring.
