Ceruleus - RMCG Wooden

I took a break from my GG, and then I've also taken a break from that as well as my GG break, which is Butterfly my Dutchman. This is what I've been playing with. It's a rather insignificant project but I thought I'd advertise it a little bit pre-upload as that seems to make a difference in download number. I had shits and shits of fun making it to be honest, and it has thick inspiration from the RMCG's renovation to Texas Giant. You'll want to imagine that the track-type uses the Iron Horses. Supports will get little attention. Few 3Ds I expect but it's mostly just a reliever of sorts.







*General comments welcome - to be uploaded in a week or so

If you want i can make a custom track texture that looks like the iron horse track. In a nice blue shade. Looks very cool id love to help.

Love volunteers.

yes? no?

*Gotta love Kyle

Holy poop, Kyle! That Iron Horse track looks awesome!

lol it looks so wierd when its banked because the shadows are in the wrong places, do you care? or should i get rid of those shadows. And why is the world lighting coming from the bottom? It makes it look like night time.

^The shadows look fine. Even during banking in general they still make the Iron Horse look authentic. Don't worry about that I don't think it will be too blatant.

I changed the sun position so it doesn't look like every other roller coaster uploaded.

Uhhh well i hate to burst ur bubble dude but having the sun be underground is kind of unrealistic lol.

Bubble is burst...

i would reconmend using only one side of catwalks, kinda like on tx giant.
but i love the blue iron horse
the shaping on that up hop to overbank looks sexy

Well I'm having more help to figure this out. Meanwhile miscellaneous support work, random other misc. etc. things. Meanwhile, I think Kyle did a stand up job with these rails...




LOL the rails are so good

That is schmexy but the sun is still underground.

If I was you and actually going for the look then I would delete the ties...It still looks really weird with the wood ties there when all the real ride (NTG) has is steel ledgers:

Yeah the ties are very strange looking.

I'm having someone help me. After I changed the sun setting, poop hit the fan.

Jakizle - I wanted to do that but how do I?

[Metazoanhaddock]

i can do that

just change the texture

I hear that doesnt work. The only way i know to do it is what i did on my coaster. And that took way too long.

Well if it requires changing a texture on an environment that would take me way too long..........

so lol ;P

[Metazoanhaddock]

done, sent, check yo e-mail

Thank you tons Meta. Very appreciated.

You changed the ties too oh god I just noticed it lol. Looks great.



We have liftoff. I'm gonna do mild work with the supports just because it's moronic to upload any ride without some support work. Plus they just don't look very good right now.

anytime, happy to help

I know the H-beams that NL gives me aren't as large as the ones that ledge for NTG's track, but I'm turning them into H-beams and graying them, does this look good enough to execute the whole track in the same manner?

YES it looks soo sexy. Just extend the ledgers. Theres an easy method i can tell you if you dont know one already.
