Fenrir - Intamin Hyper - A7XandCoasters 6/18/10

Fenrir is a Intamin Hyper that I coincidentally created and ended up really loving the layout. It combines a number of Intamin Hypers mixing the modern and classic designs.

You're not an early 90's black man. You live in one of the Dakota states. Thank you for your time.

Progress has been slowly made, as well as a change of the layout.

I plan on adding some custome 3ds stations but the only 3d program I have is Object Creator. The only real problem I'm having is I don't have any quality textures. I found this site

http://www.cgtextures.com/

Is there any way to get any of these textures into OC? Have any of you used this site?

Paste the textures into both the NoLimits objects folder and the "OCTextures" Folder that comes with when you download the Object Creator. I must warn you the textures will not work if they're not at the correct size. It has to be at 32x32, 64x64, 128x128, 256x265, 512x512, 1024x1024, and so forth (can be interchanged; i.e.: 512x128). I've used the site too, it has some pretty decent textures on there.

That's great news. Is there any way that the texture sizes may be changed after being downloaded or must the textures be exactly as you say before the download?

Download GIMP [dorkhat]. Shift-T to resize it (click on the chain symbol by the two dimension boxes if the image is not proportional to the required image sizes). It also has a feature also if you go to Filter > Map > Select "Make Seamless," and the image is seamlessly tileable:)

wow the drop looks awesome and original. nice color choice as well. Really looking forward to this man!

Yeah, I agree, very original drop. Can't wait to see more of it! Keep up the good work.

Wow,the first drop looks freakin awesome,can't wait to see more pics!

Fenrir is comming along nicely. I had to redo the layout but I'm back on track and now making some great progress with the supports. The supports are very inspired by traditional Intamin style but I guess you will see a little "creative edge" in some spots. But mostly everything is realistic to what Intamin has put out in their designs.

Oh looks really gorgeous!But the awesome first drop is still there?I think in reality you would need OTSRs to ride it.

looks awesome but why dont you use the 4-tube track for such a big height?

[AyTrane]

The 4-rail track doesn't have anything to do with height, as it does force and support distance. That being said, I would recommend it on those big hills.

I would really like to see this coaster in other color schemes,maybe with a orange track and black supports,just a suggestion...
And I guess that the drop is inspired by Expedition GeForce.

^I dont think so because it has a about 270????????? twist and EGF has only 48?????????

^ But it's still inspired EGF. Its generally the same concept for a drop.

OK I can see that the supports are inspired by EGF too They look good. Do you need a tester?

^hmmmm not yet... I might need some in the future but as of now, I don't have a particular desire for one yet. Thanks for the offer though.

PM me if you need one...

Lolz rate whore supports.

Way to be constructive. [:)]

[Coasterkidmwm]

Sorry I hate rate whore supports. Just move the pole over a bit, you don't need to frame the track below.

Eccentric and odd supports are an adjustment to a locale problem (see Great Bear), not "doing something different" for fun or whatever. Flat grass is not a locale problem.
