Here are some early shots of my newest project, Predator. This is at a pretty early stage, so I haven't even done any banking or anything yet, but, here's a taste anyway.

Oh cool! Looks very twisted and fun, leave some lats in there too! Nice trick for the changing of the rail colors.

Do you do your banking last??? Ive never tried that before, is it a good technique. I have always done it as i gp along as then it can lead in to the next element!

Well, with the tools you don't have much choice, really.

I dont know if you noticed this, but on either side of the wooden coasters in the coaster type section, there are rides called steel coasters [lol]

I enjoy wooden coasters far more than steel coasters, both to ride and design. Simple as that.

I just did a test version with some rough banking, and this thing is starting to look REALLY cool.

Okay, one final pic for the night.

I just finished the layout (no banking yet), so here's an overall shot.

One more pic...

Trackwork is DONE, banking is done. Yes, the second hill is banked to the outside. Yes, all gs are in the green. Yes, it is a first for a woodie. Yes, it is cool. Very, very cool.

Thats my idea ;)

Nice to finally see someone else do outwardly banking hills. I did it on Quatro as a test, nothing that extreme, but it gave an interesting feeling thats for sure.

Looks like a great example of what tools can make, now I just wish they would port them to macs [:(]
