After months of absence from NL2, I decided to make a Cedar Fair inspired scene. The main goals of this project were to use 3d models in a project for the first time, and to get motivated to build in NL again. Feel free to judge harshly and write any comment/criticism that comes to mind.
Intimidator: Building Tech - Most good. A few pumps and bumps in places (I have those too, they're difficult!). The only two things I weren't thrilled about were your first drop because it seemed a bit much in the back seat, and I didn't like the awkward little turn over the exit of the first hill. G's were otherwise well controlled and the ride felt like it should. That portion seemed a bit forced but looking at it now I don't know what else you could have done besides one of those S hills. No complaints about the supports or the blocking or anything.
Adren/Fun - Neat ride that did exactly what it was supposed to do. Bravo on the inclined immelman turnaround that was kind of in a pit. That was well executed. Ride was decently fun and it didn't seem to predictable. Ride Theme/Originality - You said Cedar Fair scene and I got a Cedar Fair scene. I guessed this was going to be called Intimidator and it was lol. Ride looks nice in it's setting, very good subtle use of terrain. The station reminded me of Raging Bull's station at SFGAm. Why no lift motor at the bottom of the lift like most B&M's have? I just thought that was a little bit odd in addition to the black chain return. Good job on this ride overall! ------------------------------------------ Afterburn:
BT - Okay first off, -1.6 and -1.5G's on the first hill is a bit too much. I get that intamin makes lofty rides, but that is really really pushing it. I know rides like Maverick are really intense but they're walking a fine line and have short little trains for a reason. Aside from that, the supports look pretty good but they're a tad light (not enough poles close together) on the closing twisty portion of the ride. Why didn't you ever use the box spine on this ride? I found that a little bit odd. A couple of pumps and bumps but nothing major.
Adren/Fun - Neat ride echoing the megalite rather well without flat out copying its layout. I like the twisty section, it reminded me of Maverick. Just next time make sure you don't make the hills quite so violent. Remember the inclined immelemanish thing on the B&M you made? It feels like you made the exact same thing on this ride but only in reverse. Be careful of that. You don't want to repeat yourself in the same park!
Ride Theme/Originality - Fit in well with the whole Cedar Fairish theme, and it had a different layout while I was still able to tell what you were going for. ------------------------- Park As a Whole: Good execution, just make sure you don't forget to include the 9000 trash cans Cedar Fair is known for next time! Also, both of your rides use the same S turn in the brakes ending. Be careful of that and don't repeat yourself.
