Le' Monstre (11/8 Pic Update)

yea like what you tried to do with Le Monstre ! and you made me go back and make it perfectly round again![:(!]

If you need help making turns perfectly round, try this:
http://d1jlserver.dnsalias.net/CCDev2/pub_fileinfo.cfm?fid=736
it includes a 3ds object that's a perfect circle, so you can place it above your turn (in the top view) and move the controll points until the track matches up with the circle.

i may use it later but i got my prelift a perfect circle again YAY

Yes, but you could have just saved another copy of your original and if you didn't what I did then you could have reverted back.

i could of but i didnt

Edit: I made the lift taller! Le' Monstre now stands a whomping 267 with speeds up to 89 mph[:O]

http://nldc.interfix.net/p1181 look at my SWEET turn, oh yea i forgot that turn was made with elementry[pshades]

It's hard to see exactly what that turn looks like. Could you give a closeup of it please?

well why do you need to see it closer?

http://nldc.interfix.net/p1181 there i got a closer pic of the turn and read the stats on the pic to see how awsome this turn is!

looks good. btw, did you use the HSAK for that? Also, looking at that screenshot in the editor of that turn, I'd advise using 3 segments for it, that way it's unlikely to have as much pumping.

well i used elementry

Nevermind. I'd still recomend having 3 segments for that turn. Just run it through the AHG with a heartline of 0 and set the number of segments to 3.

ok then, question on all your rides you use like a lot of segments and when i try to do that it pumps like crazy is that because you make your ride go through the AHG?

yeah, it's not a good idea to use that many segments unless it's made with elementary or AHG.

ooo so thats why your ride has so many well could you run it through the AHG when im done

Sure, but like someone said earlier, make it as smooth as possible, and the result will come out better. [;)]

No offence but why dont you run it through AHG? Its free to download, and its better if you learn all the aspects for future rides. Just a thought. BTW AHG is really easy to use, apart from on really odd elements.

well i downloaded it but i dont get it, it looks hard

Read the read-me, that's why it's there. If you need help, send me a PM I guess.

ok looks for a pm in the next few days, im getting a little farther im still smoothing, and im adding an air time hill pics tommorow i guess

when i do ahg, all i thought was speed needed to be calculated. But when i enter a ride and its speed, i always get an error. I know thats it is m/s and that you divide the speed (kph) by 3.6 to get the answer, but i still get errors

You have to make sure that the coaster is NOT a complete circut, has no speed altering devices (lifts, launchs, brakes, etc), and that the heartline is what you want. Also it's better to use higher perscision value, they result in a smoother transition, but make sure you remove ALL pumps, as the AHG will only magnify those (depending on perscision value).

i like the track smoother cause i have to hit one button!!!
it actually made my new ride flow very nice so far!

huh?

I tryed downloading that track shaper thing from coaster candy but it didnt work any ideas?

i got it, you place the things in objects
