| I knew it's possible to do it! I lazily experimented many times before and never achieved. Really cool. |

| You used to be able to do that by making 5' transport sections over the whole ride, with the acceleration off, but that killed FPS. They changed that for a recent update. I too would like to know how you did it now, as I have 2 Intamin woodie tracks that would benifit from the technique. That said, you did all the work to figure it out...so I wouldn't be offended if you didn't want to tell. |

I was trying to make an Intamin PreFab rail texture in the environment editor, but I need some kind of texture outline.
If anyone has a texture outline for the rails in no limits, or the game's texture itself, please send it to me. I would love to see this with a PreFab texture for the rails. |

w00t! I figured it out...
Whoever has the time to do it for a whole track, though, has some serious issues. In order to do it while maintaining normal gravitational speed would take 3 or 4 settings adjustments on every single segment, when each segment is only about a foot-and-a-half long. Pretty ridiculous... after doing the math, if you did this for a whole coaster, it would take something like 7 hours, and that's only if you can make a complete segment adjustment every 10 seconds.

Yeah, but the ties still show up as a solid texture. |

| Does the same problem arise with each of the several types of transparent textures compatible with NL, cjd? |

| Transparency has always worked fine on my coasters' object files, just not when I tried to make the supports transparent. It looked like it was trying to load the supports, and then after about 30 seconds of trying to load, NL crashed. And I was using TGA, which was the same type used on the transparent objects, so I highly doubt it was the file type. |

| I now know it's possible, whereas I thought it was only possible before one of the recent updates. Therefore, if I want to figure it out, I can experiment like cjd did. Please stop trolling. |

Trolling? Lol.
Trolling is showing teaser pics and then not providing additional information.
Care to share Sloane? |

Can't you make the ties disappear if you have the segments too small?
Also note that the ties are still visible on the lift segments. |
