I was about to tell you to reach out for the devs in order to include this into an official update for NL2, and then only I read the end of your post. So thrilled for that! Wishing you luck with the project. ;) Maybe you can reach out to Irvine Ondrey Engineering , they might be able and happy to he...

You can make a 360?? picture out of it.

But as far as I understand, it's especially useful to fake reflections on 3D objects.

Okay that's good to hear. I kept picturing those horrible B&M torture devices on this thing, and that would kinda ruin it for me. Indeed, I had this fear also. I rode one wing-rider (Raptor) and a few Vekoma MK1212 train, and was always more or less bothered by the vest restraints: it keeps on ...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that NoLimits?

That's an interesting hole in the building lol. I like the hig banked turns I'm seeing so far. Looks like the park is trying to mimic this. https://i.gyazo.com/4948c0011a942c009560be69ad100e18.jpg It's actually more than that! I recently heard that these two (Movie) parks were correlated. The new S...

The smashed potato loop is teasing you right here:

Dude what.

3.8g will be reached in that turn.

With a launch speed of 80km/h, there will be 3.7g at the entrance of the Immelman-loop (the official name for this inversions, don't ask), and -0.2g at the top. Hangtime!

Fun fact: A lot of real coasters don't pass the "clearance test" on catwalks, so they sometimes use "finger warners" like these ones:

Honestly I think this is a standard design, all Kumbak trains have the same kind of feel to them. I never thought this was custom to fit a theme, but maybe you guys are right. About Stampida as the whole, as surprising as it may be to some people, I really enjoyed my rides on it (with those exact tr...

Those awful kumbak trains were nicely themed. Wha... What? https://parkvault.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/stamp2.jpg If the theme they were going on is "a 21st century torture device", well, ok they nailed it. But I thought the theme of that coaster was a western stempede of some sort. :lol:

^ Do this ride is still there nowaday?

By the way, Tourbillon welcomed its first passengers:

No, Mack is also thinking that as well, as they confirmed it was a new type. Not to like kill any speculation here, but do you have proof of MACK saying this? Actually no, I just heard that from someone. I think they asked Mack at IAAPA or something like that. But I mean, look at the track, catwalk...

Questions are always the same. I got the first two right by luck (I don't speak Dutch) and then the third one wrong. It let me enter the contest anyway. But I tried it again and got the three right, only the top sentence changes, otherwise it's the exact same page where you enter your email address.

I agree. And I would theme it to space and call it Deep Space! Oh wait.





Seriously I think this could make a great experience, it's just that the simulation is messed up.

You clearly don't know french people, straightbanana!

They had a contest over Facebook for people to choose a name.... "Timber!" was my entry!! (originally spelled "Tiiimber!") As the name isn't officially announced, no winner yet. To give credits when it's due: That was my dad's idea. Basically when I told him the rules and the the...

Smiler has exactly 26 cross sections (vs. 58 for Taron), that makes 52 passes (vs. 116)..!

Wow, that's a major bump over here. :) But I have made a new version of my Arm-Lift (see Kaloha just above), this time including two arms for a decent capacity. I introduce you the Arm-Lift DUO. It took me two years to figure out how to manage the two arms at a time, but here I am! https://fbcdn-sph...

Tsunami's first two loops are round too, actually:

I think the opposite, Gerstlauer does A LOT of heartlining.

It's not even round though :lol: its squashed from the top haha That's what I thought at first too. But I think both the angle of the drawing, and the fact that we're accustomed to see tear-shaped inversions leads us wrong. As for the rendering, no, it seems pretty solid. Look at the supports, they...
