new thrill ride under construction

[Dirk_Ermen]

i'm working on a new thrill ride in anim8or. This time it will be fully animated [:)] But also this is first an low capicity ride. Only 2 arms, If the ride is totally done and no problems i'd might add 2 more arms to the ride for higher capicity [:)]

Here's one screen with put'n the ride allready in action also you can see how the arms can rotate:


You can see that it still doesn't has colors or seats on the ride. Of cource, the ride will get that all, and hopefully i will be able to animate the restraints too [:)]

So what do you think about it so far? [:)]

Wow! Your the best person at anim8or!

WOW u really put some thought into this!

How does get on your ride? looking cool!

i've made today a full drawing of all mechanisms that i've planned to work around the ride and while the ride. I'm hoping to get everything working that i want, some things i'm sure to get working but some like working restraints not really. I'd first need to ask something on the anim8or forums if something is possible. But i will scan the drawing asap and i will show it [:)]

It looks good Dirk. Hope you can finish it the way you wanted it.

If you designed this ride by yourself, I'm gonna have to say that I'm impressed. To bad the anim8or renderer is so slow. I made a 2 minute movie with it, and it took over 4 hours to render. Maybe you can have 8 seats per arm? Having 2 seats back to back, and to seats on the edges facing the back to back seats? That's just how I would do it.

it's fully disigned by myself, i was thinking at the skyswat ride and thought can't i make some kind of traveling ride from it. After thinking and sketched i'd came up this idea so far. I'd might still extend the ride. with some cool features [:)]
I'll try to keep you guys updated on everything that will happen [:)] Now only hope i can add a nice texture on it [:)]

i can't wait till the animation is done. like i said on the art forum, i'd ride that in a heartbeat!! [:p][:D]
