Ok, I just finished the track. Not the smoothest, but I believe that it's at least half-decent. The supports will be entirely custom. I will then use the auto flanger to generate flanges. There will be alot of detail and work put into them. But the env and terrain are yet to be created... I should try the tracksmoother. Thanks Buster, for those tools. [:)]

Edit: IT WORKS!!! THE TRACK SMOOTHER!!! THANK YOU BUSTER, THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!!!!!

I'M ALMOST FINISHED, I'M ALMOST FINISHED, I'M ALMOST FINISHED!!!!!!! Just gatta add a little water fountain. But I don't know how. Oh, and does it have to pass tunnel testing? Mine doesn't, but I consider it safe. Some support beams are pretty close and stick right in the tunnel. But they look very safe when I have the car there and pause it. It would probably measure to the safety lanes if it was in the station.

Edit: I just invented something I call "station testing" It works well for inverts on unbanked sections. ALso, there is "catwalk testing" It probably doesn't work on banked sections, but it works as a vertical test for inverts and maybe a lateral test for noninverts.

my coaster is looking freaking awsome, now all that needs to happen is me scrambling to make good supports, now does it have to have tons of custom supports and can I have some prefabs without being dinged for it?

You can have prefabs where they fit. But I recommend you don't try putting a prefab support on top of the drop [:p]. Just use custom supports where you think it is need. Then you won't be marked down, but you'll of course be marked up for full custom support work.

About a week after the deadline. This gives me some time for judging and setting up the new ride. Besides that you all also get a little break from designing [approve].

I'm just about finighed. I uploaded it at coastercandy but tested the DL and it didn't work. I think the server has a problem.

Actually, my stupid bro is DLing this 3 gig crap and the internet is running at a snail's pace. I wish the stupid thing would just give less "power" to his DL and more "power" to other's things.

Otherwise, the server has a problem. Why can't I upload it here? Because I'm not allowed to upload env's, objects, or whatever essencial items that come with the track, even though a woddie without those objects woud be more that twice as large of a file. I think we should just allow peoplbe to upload whatever they want, but limit the size of the file to 2 megs or 1.5 megs or something.

Sorry, but I'm going to have to break the rules. CC isn't working but I want to do more than just email it. I want to show it to everyone. I probably won't upload it just yet.

WWS, please don't ban me. I see thousands of other peeps who do this and they get away with it.

Edit: Sorry about that. My bro stopped the DL. It should work now.

Another Edit: Please mark me as track recieved.

I fold, takes to much effort with the supports, and not enough time, but I'm still gonna release my ride.

Ok, now whose the winner? [lol]

Edit: when you judge my ride, do notice how much tiem I spent into teh supports and landscaping. I know the track is short and lacks smoothing, but I'm not really good at that. So please don't judge it by it's ratings.
