hey folks,

I started this thing while I was bored but I decided to continue.
It's m first real woodie...also my first build with elementary. I dunno if it was made before but this ride has a triple up. that pulls from -0.4 up to -1.4 g vertical of course. There's no banking done yet. I'll also build a custom stationout of supports. Like the ones on bobcoasters tracks.

I would appreciate some feedback.

Nice layout quite nice for a double out and back. The tunnel in the station and the turn into the station look weird as the turn must have an extremely small radius. It's nice to see new out and backs and it shows that other people must have appriciation for them other than Trackwalker and I. Looking good[approve][:D][approve]!!!

of course it's not done at all, I just connected the curcuit so that the train is running. And like I said I will make a custom station with a tunnel so that the track runs under the station.

Some more pics added...the supports are almost done and I hope they look good since I put a lot of work into them. And forget about the station out of supports...it looked ugly.I'm now going to make one out of 3ds.

Thanks to Kev for giving me permission to use his tornadic environment, it looks a whole lot better with it.

Thanks TCon, I really appreciate your comment, cause if you like it, most other people should also:p the lateral bracing on that second turnaround are almost done. I'll post some pics tomorrow.

How far did you get on your comment PumpMeUp? you can just post it in this thread also, no problem though.

three new pics added including the logo jpecool made. All that is left now are some tree adjusments and tweaking of the station settings. I did some more custom support work on that last turn. The station is also finished bt somehow the OC use a wrong texture for the roof of the station and I wasn't able to fix it but it still looks ok.If you still have a idea of what could be changed to make it better in any way feel free to post it in this thread.

Any comments are highly appreciated.

Release date: probably 4.9.2005
