Well i like it anyway. It makes it quick and easy once you know what you are doing. its a very nice progame i think and for some reason fun to use.

When 1.5 is released maybe you will be able to DL the update for free if you already have NL, or pay $20 for the 1.5 update plus all Tia's tool, ya know like a package. Maybe she is planning to have all the tools part of the update and you have to pay for them (unless you already have em) for macs.

I want to learn how to use elementry. I can never smooth tracks by hand very well. But I don't know any of the formula crap. I think elementry is a nice tool actually. It makes NL more professional. And the best part is that newbs' tracks will be smooth.

Ya those on PC's......

Skill will still be involved in making great coasters because most people will only be able to make fundamental elements such as loops, helixes, etc. w/ elememtary, and almost noone wiil be able to make elements like buster or gouldy still.

From What I have heard, the 1.5 update will include heartline reading, which is in the elementary program, right? Maybe that means its close to being released!

The new update will read the G's from the heartline position yes. But these programs aren't really linked. The elementary program includes heartlining because it looks like a real coaster should do.

Well it doesn't neccesarily "include" heartlining, the user still has to make the neccesary formulas to let the program heartline the track...

Actually, I saw this screenshot of it. Someone was making some straight track that leads into an upcurve. I think that learnig how to use elementry will make a huge difference in my tracks, especially since I suck at smoothing.

where is the original track smoother, i really need it

I'll get a link.

Be sure to thank Buster. He's making neat tools all the time.
