That would be dumb. Your entire car would be that picture. Just open a cartexture in an editing program and build over it. Thats what I do.

What do you meen by that? i want just letters or whatever on the front of mine. Nowhere else.

Heres what I did for this:
http://nldc.interfix.net/i11283

Steps:
Enter Paint.
Open 4 seat hyper cartexture.
Go to the no limits editor.
Get the red, blue, and green values of your train.
In paint, create a custom color.
Enter the red, blue, and green values.
Using the bucket and brush, color the section above the wheel that color.
Find a cool font.
Use the Abc tool with a see through backround.
Draw a box that fits in the right place of the train(About mid section)
Type in what you want on the train.
Size it so it fits the way you want.
Save cartexture as your ride name into the cartextures file as a PNG file.
Go into the editor.
Hit coaster setting.
Find trains.
For each train hit apply cartexture or whatever.
Find yours, and apply.
Your done!

For different colored trains, make multiple colors with all the steps above. I hope this works.

cjd, I know you allready said "no", but let me ask again...

I just now saw this topic (and the other one where I should have signed up); any chance that you could let contestants in, allthough they never signed up, in the case that (like allways) a couple (20+ I bet) of contestants fail to submit an entry?

Buster.

PS: I would understand if you don't change your mind now, but be warned that I WILL have to change my title to "undefeated champion"...

And so how would you entering now or not entering change you from winning everything like you do anyways?

He dosnt win everything, Just everything thats no limits, I'd play a game of hockey with him, see who is the champ of that!

Plus some of us actually want a chance.

^Yeah, I am sure he is kind enough to let you or some other guy win, if the same guys wins it all all the time, it just gets boring, and one sided, we want a variety of winners.

Can we have two stations as long as they are both in the box with the "X"?

yay done my track work for my (hopfully) final version!

Might B worth looking at this:

http://www.digital-experiment.de/tutorials.htm

yea you can count me out due to lack of effort, sorry lol

Thanks coasterteddy i cant find tutorials for nl anywhere else



edit: well..since everything on that tutorial that you have to downlaod doesnt work for me, i cant do it. But thanks anyways.


edit again: Also, does anybody know how to get the 4 seat hyper coaster cartexture into the cartexture file? For some reason, every time i go into paint, it's not there.

You can't use paint, it doesn't support the targa graphics file.

Buster, I'm sorry, but I can't change the rules mid-contest. I said that registration was over on 2/25, so I have to stick to it. There are a lot of people in this round, who signed up within the time limit, that would be VERY upset if I let you slide in after the deadline. Sorry that I can't let you in, but that's just how it is. I hope you will come back and try again next year.

Yes

Can we have a mobeius coaster? With both stations in the X place?

Yes, mobeius coasters are technically allowed.

I'm just to busy im out sorry(I wouldn't make it passed round 1 anyway.[:(])

Well, my ride is almost done. Hopefully get it uploaded tonight!

Wow man, that was pretty fast. Unfortuently due to alot of work today I only did 3 or 4 supports. Hopefully they'll be done on Sunday. But I still can't wait to check out your track.

Well, if you're that curious, log on to the AIM account you've got listed and I'll shoot what I've got over to ya...

Ok, my entry has been uploaded HERE: http://coastercrazy.com/track_exchange/de ... p?tid=9609

(cjd, I forgot to put Round 1 in the title...sorry)

I only ask for everyone to do that so it is easier to find them when I go searching the exchange for stray tracks.

I've got some screenshots of the new supports, now extending up to the double-up. I've also included a pic of the cartexture.

cjd, perhaps we all should put not just "Round 1" in the name but something like "R1-2006" , so you don't get confused with other years entry's


EDIT: just one question, is this allowed?


and then i mean the palm trees, on the ground the palms don't touch the road, only the leafs are hanging over the road a bit

@ hyyyper

May I use your road, too?

can we get rid of the template supports, or do they have to stay
