NL 1.6 Screenshots

If it improves realism and controls G's better it does matter. It is done on real rides for a reason.

I doubt it. It might have the white outline when you run it in the editor, but that's even worse than the sim because you can't speed it up. (Even more so because of the gentle gradient and slow speed of 4d lift hills) And anyways, all this is assuming there will even be 4d's in this update.

If we are going to get 4d i'd think it would preview the rotation for us when you have in 3d the onride button on. And then manually scroll over the track with the arrows [:)] Also ol????????? could show the rotation with some arrows or something to enable on the tracknodes. [:)]

We'll see [:)]

Do you realize how difficult it would be to heartline a 20ft./6m. wide train?

That's why in general B&M's have more exaggerated, slower, or more forcefully lateral elements, because the cards are much wider. If the new 4D coaster in Asia, features cars that are less wide, it would be easier, but still difficult.

It's just as simple to hearline 4d coasters, just less effective. The way to heartline 4d's is exactly the same as heartlining any other coaster with the same heartline distance.

That's what I meant, but their more difficult to design because you have to keep the forces large so that the G's don't get out of control.

wow, this is almost enough for 4d heartlining to have their own topic [LOL]

Why a 4D if he already designed the "unicoaster"? http://www.unicoaster.com ... [:)]

Why not? Just because he has made a similar type of coaster dosen't mean he shouldn't make a 4d.

FLYERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very Very cool, though I do still have the selfish thought of "Aww they arent B&M"

Yeah, I would have prefered B&M too. Ah well, a flyer is a flyer.

o_O good find ivannovitch, i think the unicoaster is definatly gonna be in the update, remember simularly the motorcycle demo came out, and then the style was avalible in the next update

Lol, shoot me, but I prefer the look of a Flying Dutchman instead of a B&M Flyer.. [:I] Great job, NL-team!

[Dirk_Ermen]

awesome, It was kind of expectable that we're going to get Vekoma flyers [:)] Can't wait to try them out [:D]

Me too! But you have to remember that Ole and the crew has a deal with Vekoma, not B&M and Intamin (yet at least [;)])

Nevertheless, awesome!

there is probably more scope to build a better layout with the vekoma flyers, But you still might see B&M flyers as well.

True, but I still prefer the style of B&M flyers. They just seem so much more sleek. The vekoma ones are far too square and boxy IMO. Now, what I want to see is a video clip of the trains dispatching, it'll be interesting to see how NL does the seat rotation & restraints.

I think we should be happy that vekoma is nice enough to help ole with this. I don't see B&M helping Ole on this.

flyer of lay-down, the principle is the same, only you start in different status,

You all said i was wrong aswell, when i found the faq page mentioning 4d's and flyer's

^Yea but no one said you were wrong about the flyers, just the 4D's. I said flyer from the get go.

We didn't say you were wrong, just that the FAQ page didn't prove anything.

It seems they're getting more done then we all expected ... hopefully it'll be out before the end of the year.

If he carries on at this rate, then it seems very likely.
