Butterfly - Recreation Coaster

[Dirk_Ermen]

Yes, I have been working in secret on a butterfly recreation! The entire recreation is build on the images that Heege Freizeittechnik has on their website.
Since today the first people have seen screens and the final progress. Now it's almost finished. First off a couple screenshots of the current state:










Known Flaws:
- Original Trackwidth: 0.54m : Current Trackwidth: 0.9m
- About double the size cars.
- Huge chain return sticking out. (Can't cover that up. Taking away the chain doesn't look well imo.)

Whopping Track Info:
Top Speed: 32km/u (19.9mph)
Max Pos g: 2.2g
Duration: 44 seconds.
Track Length: 23,04 meters (75.59ft)
Track Height: 5,42 meters (17.78ft)
Drop Angle: 30?????????

Who can can guess as first what part of the ride still is missing gets 500 points. [;)]

For the rest comments are welcome. [:)]

The catwalk under the track at the top?

I know what's missing from your post...


Shame, shame for doing something this disgraceful

Looks pretty good. The only thing that bugs me is that I feel you should of put an exit on the opposite side of the entrance.

Nope, On the rides that I have based off the recreation. They don't have it. I do know that catwalk is there on a few butterfly coasters so I'd count this answer correct.
So there is another 500 points to win [;)]

I guess you've never seen one of these butterfly coasters for real? They have all the entrance and exit at the same gate. It's a self opp ride. If there is a queue, than the people that are lined up make room for the people getting out.

Looks great! Are you going to change the wood texture in the enviornment editor?

Oh, and it's missing the brake fin [:)]

Do you know these boat jump rides,I think they're from the same manufacturer,I think I'll try to build one of those,they're pretty fun to ride,and they're self-operated too,but I can't find pics of them...

I found it,they're called nautic jets,I think I'll recreate one of them:

I think I'm going to change the texture eventually, but it's hard to find a good texture.

And no, it's not missing a brake fin. These rides are only slowed down by the wheel that's on the bottom. [:)]

Hey, I told you my idea on the trip and apparently we had the same ideas. So yeah, in order for me to steal it. You had to tell earlier about it than me. So that I knew about it.

1. Edit your posts, double posting doesn't make everyone happy [;)]
2. How will you ever recreate the jump into the water and then the dragging backwards through the water? I have slight idea's how that could be recreated. But it will never run as a real nautic jet. [:)]

Oh love,I totally forgot about that...

[slosprint]

I have an idea! [/mestartswork]

Things I think that are missing

1. The Paybox/(self opp)Dispatch button
2. The lifthill motor

It's nice when people with down syndrome can challenge themselves and really make a great recreation of such a complex coaster.

The winner is option 1, you'll get the points [;)]

I have tried the 2nd option in looks but having just a black/gray rod there was too ugly imo...
