Re: Kings Island NL2 (Vortex video uploaded in You Tube)

I uploaded a video on YouTube about Vortex. It's the least I could do now that it's closed. I took the opportunity to improve a few things: The color of the cars is updated. I had used the same color as the supports before. The Vortex logo on the front car is ok now. And last but not least, the revo...

Re: Kings Island NL2 (Phase 2 First Update)

I started to work on the train. It will be my most detailed models yet. I'm still working on the locomotives. Both Engine 12 and 19 are currently being built. Engine 12 will be animated and roll on the rails while Engine 19 will be additional scenery (and will most likely be parked in front of the f...

Re: Kings Island NL2 (Phase 1 released in the exchange!)

I finally completed Phase 1 of Kings Island NL2. I'm glad I went to the trouble of adding tiny details to Vortex. Now that the ride will removed at the end of the season, such a recreation will be the only way someone could ride Vortex. Here are screenshots of the latest additions, starting with a b...

Re: Kings Island NL2 (Update 2019-09-14)

Still progressing. I decided for a more thoroughly detailed approach to the pathways and park accessories. This will result in a great contrast between what's built on one side of the path and emptiness on the other side. But that's part of releasing in phases rather than in one shot. Because of thi...

Re: Kings Island NL2 (Update 2019-08-28)

^ The idea is to keep adding to the park. It would be more interesting this way. But we'll see what people say after the first or second release. If the majority of people experience lag on their PC, then maybe I'll switch to separate parks. I have also to consider the increasing package size file. ...

Re: Kings Island NL2 (Update 2019-08-18)

I have been working mainly on Vortex station as the pictures will tell. I also performed some scenery and script tests for the train and White River Canyon. Those are not pictured yet. Not all the tests were conclusive. I just want to make sure that I'm ready and know what I'm doing when I start pha...

Re: Kings Island NL2 (Update 2019-08-12)

After a short break, I resumed work on Kings Island NL2. I finished the supports for Vortex and started on 3d models. First, a glimpse of what will become the train. It may not look like much, but this will be the front wheels of the locomotive. I had to make sure first that it fits the rails. Howev...

Re: Kings Island NL2 (Update 2019-07-22)

Incredible Job with that station!! How long did it took to make it? I did not count the hours... fortunately This last week, I have been mainly reworking Vortex, correcting mistakes, tweaking the track and a lot of support job. It is about 75% done. When done, I'll jump in the 3d modeling for the s...

Re: Kings Island NL2 (Update 2019-07-22)

The station is almost finished. I'm just struggling a bit with the contraption at the front which used to be a fountain. Regardless, I'm quite happy with it.

being as this is my homepark, i am speechless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cannot wait to see the updates from here on out! Thank you! I'll try to update at least once a week (or more if possible). As for the error, the Vortex loops both go to the right. XD It's hard to say without...

Re: Kings Island: The NL2 recreation

I am still working on several aspects of the Beast. This will most likely be the most intricately detailed coaster of the park. One challenge I made for myself was to do as much as possible with NL2 supports system. The Beast is perfect for this as it is pretty much all wood (station, catwalks, queu...

Kings Island NL2 (Vortex video uploaded on You Tube)

I decided to embark on a long term project. The complete recreation of Kings Island with all it's coasters. Phase 1 is in the making. My intention is to release the park in consecutive phases. (instead of waiting forever for the completion of the park) Phase 1 consists of: The Beast, Vortex and KI t...

Re: Purple Moon

Hi, although I am not very active anymore in coaster building, I took the time to make a nice video of this track. I added new lights inside the tunnel. It's more interesting this way. And I renamed the track Purple Moon. Watch the video here (search Purple Moon) or on YouTube: Spez1964 _2 Visit als...

Re: Thunder Dolphin, LaQua park, Tokyo

I did. Still, I need to change some settings and details inside the 3D modeling software to make it work. Reworking the Big O is probably my next task. Either that or finishing the structure underneath.

Re: Thunder Dolphin, LaQua park, Tokyo

First, thanks everybody for the feedbacks, I appreciate a lot! To Paradox: I'm studying the script provided in NL2 and hope to find the right way to adapt it to the "Big O". However, if things stall too long, I will certainly ask one of these guys for help. I don't want to stretch this pro...

Thunder Dolphin, LaQua park, Tokyo

This is a project started in NL1, now converted to NL2. I began working on this re-creation a (long) while ago and it still in the making. Hopefully I should be able to release it within a few more weeks...hopefully... It's a massive amount of work to say the least. Here are a few screenshots of wha...
