For some reason there is a major slow down in people uploading tracks. You guys uhmm tired, not inspired, busy? Something? Any reason why you guys are not pumping out coasters as usual?

i haven't had the time, nor the dedication. I'm in a real coaster rut because What i wanna do requires a better 3DS program than the free object creator from, it's all quite depressing [:(]

i'm now busy with 3 coasters so you'll hear of me later. but i'm just working all the time i'm looking at the computer screen (and that's alot) but i've got inspiration, motivation, time enough etc. just working on 3 coasters at the same time. that was because i got too many inspiration [:D] i'm mainly busy with the supports. first i did like 99% prefab supports. but now i'll try to do 100% handwork!!

FYI...trueSpace is a powerful 3D program with many of the advanced features common to 3DS Max and Maya, including importing/exporting 3DS. It used to sell for hundreds of dollars, but Microsoft bought the company that makes it, and they now give it away for free.

You have two coasters that are half done you lazy a-hole...

As for me, I believe the reason for the national coaster slump is due to the fact that so many new methods of design have been released, like H;sak, FVD, and Newton... Many of these programs take a lot of time, patience, and effort. A lot of people (like Jensen) don't want to take the time to learn the new and improved ways of building.

EDIT: on another note, there hasn't been a good contest idea in a long long time... Those normally motivated tons of people, not only for the contest itself, but for other ideas as well.

Waiting for a better auto-supporter. Now that I can get decent tracks without spending a month on the trackwork, I don't support. I don't have the effort. I hate it.

i would be working on Nolimits more if it wasn't for the fact that i do not have Nolimits on this computer i am on now, which is a shame.

LOL. This is cute, you guys.

Strange. Others tone it down and I bury myself deep into 4 serious projects [lol]. IDK, I've got Vital, a woodie, a euro-fighter all in the making. But yeah I agree. Haven't been seeing too much in general while I'm sure that it's just a phase.

hmm. well. to be honest i miss the old days.. there used to be lots of really original and inspiring tracks here, now the site is overrun by generic crap.. sure , these new rides get good stats in the sim, and are "smooth " but i dunno, they just look hokey. and then the whole "x brandname coaster company" wouldnt make a turn like that or.. on "____" the ride doesnt do that .. no poop you little douchebag, thats called being creative. occasionally someone like bobcoaster or steve benham will upload something fantastic and it'll get ripped apart by little punks who spend the day looking at the internet so they can be self proclaimed "experts" .. so i guess i'm just dissapointed that this has gone from an enthusiasts site to something of a fanboy vs fanboy thing.. it kinda discourages me..
