How do you create zips for environments, cartextures, etc? Also, when makin 3D objects, do you use CAD or somethin?

CAD isn't what you'd want to make your 3ds files in, go with anim8tor or blender.

You can use a Winzip program. And any 3d program that can save as a .3ds file would be good.

you have to add the files that you want to the zips like:

right click on the file --> Winzip(if thats what type of unzipping program you have) --> add to zip file, or if you have a pre-existing zip then you can add to name.zip, and that will include all of your files in one zip.

However, the only extra files you may include in a zip on this site are your track, woodies, or cartextures. Nothing else, or if caught then your track will be deleted. If you want to include extra files you may link them to www.coastercandy.com but be sure to give a link to them in the description of your coaster.

For anim8or or blender, you can get the programs here:

-Blender -- www.blender.org
-Anim8or -- www.anim8or.com

Im makin a coaster now. I will have a regular version for the people with slow comps, and a zip version with cartextures and environment. Also if you upload a track onto here with an environment, when someone downloads it, there isnt any environment, will that also happen if you already terraformed it into a zip file and uploaded it onto coaster candy?

you can upload tracks with or without terraforming doesn't matter along with cartexture(s) in a zip file.

Environments 3ds and other additional files should be uploaded at coastercandy.com. Just upload them there first and link to the additional files in your coaster's description.

environment is something else, environment is like fog, dusk, night, you know, requires a skybox to make those environments/themes, terraforming happens to the track and is stored in the track file and doesn't require extra files, terraformed tracks can be uploaded here without a prob, environments and all you can use www.coastercandy.com to upload the environment files there and add a link to your track description so that people can download the environment files.
