New B&M Standup (name pending)

OK, I don't have a name yet, but I have a layout, a color scheme, and some screenshots. Note: I didn't finish the supports yet, but I am working on it. I didn't finish all the terrain either.






































This coaster is very smooth for SM, but in real life it might have a little headbanging. Oh well, I'd still ride it because I don't think it's even as bad as Mantis.

The cork looks smooth...I hope it is. Nice job.

If your trying to get a better rep around here I wouldnt be so cocky as to say "awesome standup" in the topic name. Just my opinion.

Ok, I changed the name to "New B&M standup." And Hyper_Goliath, I do think that cork is as smooth as any cork could possibly be in SM. Usually corks have pumping at the top. This one doesn't. In order for the top to be smooth though, I had to alter the banking types. I altered them many times to get the smoothest overall element I could get. The transtion out of the corkscrew kind of wiglles the train sideways, but hardly noticable. You'd probably just get a little headbanging like on most real life loopers. I still think this ride has some smoother trackwork than a coaster like "Hydra" at Dorney.

Dude, how can you get any smoother than Hydra? Hydras trains do "shuffle" but the trackwork is absolute perfect! Its easily one of the smoothest rides ever, period. Its just those dang floorless trains and their crappy vibrations.

Talon is probably right on par with Hydra and maybe smoother since the Invert trains tend to run a bit smoother overall.


How many segments make up that flatspin?

Three.

Ok, guys! Tell me what you think of the name........."Prarie Dog."

(Because prarie dogs stand up.) Or is that corny?

[Coasterkidmwm]

That is the best name ever.

brilliant

Yeah thst quite a good name.

Wow, that is easily the best name I've ever seen...

I though it looked like a 0g, not a cork.

Somehow, the lask of enthusiasm makes me think you guys don't like that name.
Go ahead and tell me if you don't like it, I don't care. I actually have a better name in mind.

Regarding that element, maybe it is undefined. I think it's more of a corkscrew personally because it's so wide and drawn out. Call it what you wish, it is the most fun element on the entire ride. I am going to finish the supports later and possibly upload it in the morning. The only trouble I'm having is getting 3 trains to run continuously without any E-Stops. Any suggestions?

adjust the station waiting time. try that...

so far its looking really good. cant wait to download it...

Thanks. I will finish the supports tonight. Sorry for the delay, I've been busy with schoolwork and SATs and crap. I should have it up by tommorrow.

BTW, I am sticking with two trains because I tried many different waiting times on the station and it would still eventually wither E-stop, or have a collision.

Here's a POV. Just a small tip: Let it complete downloading before you watch the video. That way it won't consantly be pausing.

Please tell me what you guys think, and if there's anything at all I may be able to improve.

Looks pretty good, nice layout, looks rather smooth, and the colors arent bad either, good job!

NO, that's my fish tank![lol]

so when are you uploading it?

The SM engine at its best.

nice ride, it looks really good especially cause of how SM renders it. But yea I like the layout, it seems realistic. Just make sure you heartline everything widely because stand-ups are hard to make comfortable.

[Coasterkidmwm]

Yeah your video was barely heartlined.

btw that dropout from the MCB looks like a DOOSEY

What does that mean? [confused] If it means something bad, then you don't know anything. It's an awesome drop and is the type that would give you the stomach feeling. The back even gives a little airtime on that drop.

Anyway, you brought this up at just the right time, because my ride is officially done, and I added some terraforming and greenery that will take your breath away. You guys will be able to download it within 10 minutes.

FYI- I made the cork a tad smoother, but it's still a headbanger for sure. What standup isn't?

Nope, two different things. Airtime is when you are physically lifted into the air due to negative g's. The stomach thing happens on certain drops, when they are shaped correctly. Two completely different sensations. Airtime doe not usually affect your stomach.
