I've been working on a Mack Megalite for the past few days and I'm really happy with the result. I need to keep seeing projects through to the end like this one.

The trackwork is completely done but the supports are still WIP, I feel like I'm getting there but I don't think I have truly matched Mack style yet.

The track twists under and around the lift almost the entire ride.

I used a 2nd coaster to make the 4 rail track, the only problem is that Intamin track isn't as wide as Mack so the rails don't exactly line up.

I really like this turnaround, feels very "Mack" to me.

I wanted some interaction with the lift and station, this was the result.

Again, supports are still WIP, anybody know of a new style Mack that doesn't have a ton of scenery so I can see the lower to the ground supports?

I was working on a station but the scripting that it would require is just outside of my capabilities, so this is mark II.

I love how this station looks. Let's hope I don't ruin it with textures. :shock:

How could I go about editing a material with NL2MAT to make it glow?

This station looks like a set of Greek pure white buildings! Keep that color! :D

^ I know it's a Blue Fire clone, but looks pretty different. Obviously showing that well-customized sceneries are everything to entertain riders! ;)

Well, I went to open sketchup to find that my file was gone. No big deal, I still have the .3ds export to texture everything. I imported the .3ds model and this was the result....

There are no words to describe my anger right now. 3ds Max can load the station component but cannot export it. I'm just going to release it as it is because I don't have the motivation to completely recreate that station. It's a shame but sh*t happens. I promise a much more complete project soon!

Thanks for the sympathy Oscar. It's good to know that I finally have the ability to impress the community. This won't be the last you see from me!
