2006 NL Tournament (Round 1) - RESULTS pg 58

Does the station as a whole have to be within the box or just the track from in the editor?

Guess I could do a 3ds to work around that anyways if I had too.

^(answered in the Q&A section already)

Ahh. Gotta redo quite a bit now. Considering its finished.

On the comments for my coaster, some guys said it crashes, but it dosnt, it is as safe as any B&M, one guy said its a steel coaster and the lift supports were to wierd, points off for originality and safety now? I count one bump at the end of the first major air time hill, and people say it was "veeery jerky".... I put the time to make the lift supports and now I am told that they are to wierd and to wooden like... Geez.

^Thats the nature of the biz. I can give it an honest rate if you would like. Just know it'll be pretty honest.

Yeah, getting crap from them is annoying, but you know what your doing, so if you give me what they give me I will know the reality of my track. So yes, I would like an honest rate, constructive critisism is always good.

alrighy - Ill do it now.

Update: I think my track is final...time for the next few stages. Yes, timing is final as well. No stopping ever - anywhere. Slow on the brake run but hey, you do what you gotta do.

Theoretical RPH is around 2380.

6024ft of track with 3 trains of 8. Only 225ft tall as well - didnt even use the max.


Dragon Fly - I rated your track. Tried to include as much helpful hints as possible.

Oh, no, you don't have to put them away , i was just joking,
just glad i atleast inspire SOMEONE

^They're right... there are supports within the 20 ft range. However, it is VERY close. That, and the fact that after further research, I have discovered that the actual maximum height of real trucks is about 15 feet, and I have decided to let it slide... this time. Everyone else, don't push your luck. Dragon Fly barely got away with this, and that does not make it tolerable.

yeah, it was kinda odd have trucks 6 meters high...

Dragon: You're DOES crash. Not sure how you did it but you have 2 trains on the main circuit at once...

Yea, his crashes because he has no brake section. Im almost done mine, Here are some pics.

^love the blue/white scheme,

and perhaps i should have (C)'d the highway sign, look at all the profits i'm missing [:(]

Blue and white is pretty much just classic by now. Especially with a couple of the rocket coasters lately making such fashion statements.

I seriously doubt im going to get my ride done. Im just bombed down with graphics coursework to do, and that i have 2 units left to do in a month for art coursework, along with my AS science coursework! Its just suddenly gone OMG last few weeks at school, CRAP! So yeah, i will try and get my entry done, but i doubt i will. I still only have like 2000 feet, as i just dont have time. When im not doing work i want to be with mates, so yeah, i probably wont finish.

That's too bad Jpecool. This happens all the time. You come and enter a contest then you come back saying your not going to finish. Well have a hard time trying to finish at least. It's true, school does suck. It doesn't pay off either.

Thats definetly not true here atleast. We don't want to be stuck working at McDonalds all our lives.

Yes, some people do work at McDonalds, but you see they have no ambition in life and even if they do complete school with good grades, they might end up doing something crappy for the rest of their life.

Now as of me, I literally failed all of my exams, now I want to be in the computer scene so I decided to go to college, I was good at level 1 so I got moved up to level 2 within a couple of weeks and now getting a merit mark on nearly every assignment. Going to level 3 this year and University. Now all this includes me learning Math and English at the same time. I got my cert through the post today and passed! [:D] Equals to the same as a "C" GCSE, so in the end school is complete rubbish and a time waste.

Thanx man, and you definetly get total credit for the highway sign.

[coolbeans326]

my ride is at about the halfway mark. I need to do a helix, a couple of overbanks, and a bunch of hills, then heartline it and then the track work should be done. I'm expecting all that will be finished by monday, then I can start on the supports.[:)]

I just want to let everyone know that I will be on spring break for the next week, so my availability will be limited. I'll try to get on as often as I can, but I doubt I will be able to route interent access into my tent...

For dragonflys' track, it didn't crash at all when i rode it.

Yes it does crash...if the simulation wouldn't stop there would even be three trains crashing into each other.

cjd, just to clearify something, in hopes of not getting disquailifed in case of something so careless.....are 3ds allowed in the station zone outside of the give box? IE, stairs, queue, etc.

Yes. Queue and stairs can go out, just not the building.

I have finished my track!!
