And I really don't think that's a good station for a woodie. I think one with a solid structure like most woodies is preferable. Don't use a jet coaster station please.

I wasn't trying to make it like a jet coaster station.

Idk, it kinda looks like one.

It doesn't have huge girder beams under the station and doesn't have weird brakes.

Shake It Hard?

I'm not saying the whole thing, it's just the base under the station track. It's just beams holding it up and it looks odd, especially for a wooden coaster. You should make a solid station house.

What I did with SeaBreeze (which turned out pretty well), was I kept the simple station, and built a support station around it. I think that would look much better for this. I have to say it does look like a jet coaster station right now. Instead of the box shapes, try using more triangles.

Even use thunderbolt's station as a good example:

That's a bad idea. If you have "Shake it hard" in big letters like that... well, let's not go there...

^I'm not talking about lettering. I mean the roof shape. Another point is to make the station feel more enclosed.

Is this better?

Now it looks like a giant concession stand (although i'm not sure what a concession stand named shake it hard would be selling)

i hate to say this, but i'm proud of cool5 for not designing a stupid jet coaster. This actually looks halfway entertaining.

A little better. Try making the staircase in sections, like this:



And support it like a wooden coaster, not a steel coaster (the staircase, of course).

Also, by more enclosed, I meant something like this:

I added more vertical beams to the station to enclose it more and split up the stairs into two sections. I added wooden frame work under the stairs.
Where I have the arrow, should I extend that support down to the next support?

Black = Must add details

Lower the roof from blue to red

Green = suggestions

I'd go even lower with the roof, to make it match the brakerun's roofline.

^^, ^ agreed. other than that the ride that -->cool5 is making seems pretty good. well done so far, but par attention to freddie, he seems to know a lot about woodies *snickers* (but seriously)

This would look really good with some big trees around it (larger than trees included in Nolimits).

I am starting a even faster coaster with a ravine part.

Shouldn't you finish what you started?

[gouldy]

can you finish one before you venture off into something altogether much shitter.

he's cool5, his mind cannot stay on the same thing for more than 30 seconds.

Finish the first one please. It was looking really good!
