... an Arrow kind-of jet coaster with stretched inspiration from Steel Phantom! I haven't touched anything NL related in a while, so I'll be honest when saying this isn't at all very exciting. I paid more attention to making transitions and shaping interesting. My goal was a variation of Arrow Mine Trains with a sign of jet coaster in there.

I freaking love these rides. Can't wait to ride it. Maybe different track colors though? A113's jet coaster is almost the exact same color.

After all the current contests are done I think I will start a Jet Coaster contest.
Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

I can't really tell but your turns look like they're made too nicely. I'd need better picture angles to tell. You're doing that goddamned annoying emo thing where you post artsy poop instead of something people can actually help you with.

Also make sure you lift hill crest is tight enough. They're usually tighter than you'd think. Again this is a "can't tell from pictures" moment.

All RCCAs should be RMC'd. And that event shall be henceforth known as the Rollercaust.

I'm sorry man, ha I know you really hate it but I'm not really looking on pointers on how to improve this one. I'll just upload in a couple days and tell me how to improve from riding it, better that way anyway. I suppose I'll make another similar one later on.

Also make sure you lift hill crest is tight enough. They're usually tighter than you'd think.


Something I feel I tried my best on, but now that you mention I might wanna edit them up a bit. My shaping is mainly Arrow-derived, so when you say 'tighter', do you mean closer to an 'L' shape or close to a 'C' (little lead-ins)?

^Nope, starting them right now. They're going to resemble Arrow's style (to the best of my extent and motivation certainly)...

It's understandable that this directly isn't a Jet Coaster, but I had to [dorkhat]

I'm sorry but I can't help but think this is a cop out for avoiding the creation of a true Arrow.

If you really want to recreate the feeling of a true Arrow . . . use any RCT . . .

I'm perfectly fine with a "kind-of" style for Arrow in No Limits. Really nailing the Arrow style is an exercise in horrible transitions and nonsensical banking, which are things that you can do with tools, but it just makes so much more sense to not. I'm a bit more interested in seeing an "interesting" coaster than a 100% Arrow accurate coaster.

^^It has the genuine Arrow feel to it, trust me. I know you won't be thoroughly satisfied, but nor thoroughly unsatisfied [;)]. The only reason I even threw 'jet-coaster' into the equation is because of the speed and lack of inversion. As clearly as I can make it, this is an Arrow roller coaster that does not invert and is not incredibly exciting. An Arrow with hints of jet-coaster. Shoulda tried to make that more clear in the first place, sorry =/
