Re: Traveling/Rentable NL2 Coaster Contest: Start Building!

Sorry to dig up and old thread. I was searching for an old post and realized I abandoned this. I want to apologize, years later, for never judging. I didn't run off with your rides lol. Likely around this time is when the I.D. program was kicking my ass and I had to separate myself from a lot of wha...

Re: Traveling/Rentable NL2 Coaster Contest: Start Building!

If you'd like to upload, go ahead. I'll steer my eyes away from any ratings given as to not bias the scoring.

Pifke: you do have until Sunday night if you've got some free time.

Re: Top Thrill Dragster Possibly Down for the Rest of the Ye

Kingda Ka's launch is straight up savage. TTD's doesn't compare. TTD's launch stops accelerating so quickly that it almost feels like a moment of deceleration. Kingda Ka cranks you faster and faster in 4-5 YANKS and you're speeding up until the end of the launch run, which is where the difference i...

Re: Traveling/Rentable NL2 Coaster Contest: Start Building!

I'd prefer you do your own work. Unless other contests believe I'm being too strict, I'll say no, but you're free find and receive help with that sort of thing; just do it on your own.

I updated the original post with the due date! Anyone who wants to try may participate and submit. I'll provide an email to submit to probably within the week/few days of due date. @skyscraper: as long as it is not longer than 2 minutes at the completion of 5 laps, you're in the clear. If not, reduc...

Re: Traveling/Rentable NL2 Coaster Contest

Yup, most of the Rentable cranes went just over 57 so a 55' grounded footer would work just perfectly.

Re: Hacksaw::CCI Terrain Woody

Yeah that would make sense-the way you have it it looks too skinny weak atm. Yeah idk about your block issue. Maybe the brakes are too weak and it's coming off a block? I've sometimes had remaining issues when a block section is sharing the point where the end of the track connects to the start of t...

Re: Hacksaw::CCI Terrain Woody

Your block sections may not be long enough. Make sure they're a bit longer than the train, and setting them to trigger/function middle of train might do the trick. Also, I personally might make that whole section over the lake steel supported instead of just base touching water. Seems like a decent ...

Re: Traveling/Rentable NL2 Coaster Contest

Alright, after poking around a bit, I've got some details and more specifics to share. I really don't want to limit anyone's vision here, so the only rides I won't allow are any styles that seat more than two people wide (see below). I want everyone to keep in mind what would be cost effective, so: ...

Traveling/Rentable NL2 Coaster Contest: Start Building!

Playing around with the idea of this: objective is to design a modern, fun, innovative, tiny, traveling coaster. The contest would have a length and height restriction. My idea is for contestants to make 3 rides, a euro fighter, a spinner, and a 3rd of their choice to adapt into a tiny, functional a...

Re: 2017 No Limits 2 Tournament - Vekoma Challenge/Curveball

Emailed/Submitted/uploaded/nervous

I used the HD Foliage pack, but it doesn't show up on the listing when I go to package the park. I hope it packages, cuz I used a lot of that. I'll have to test with a friend, not part of the contest.

PS. The auto response email displays a 2016 graphic

Re: RMC Mean Streak - 2018

I'm hoping not. That sounds far too cheesy. I'm hoping for stampede, which is a nice subtle name for a wacky ride. Really I'd love Evil Streak, to help keep the Streak name alive.
