Just pratice, pratice, pratice and eventually your skills will get better. Also if you go into your No Limit's file, there are some tutorials and guides there. You could also watch other people's videos and that can give you ideas and a basis of how to start your track.

We have a nice articles section here with multiple tutorials. Some may be a bit outdated, but you'll get the general idea.

Dude, download some good tracks from this site and use them as examples, copy the style and shaping of the tracks. Eventually, you'll just get better as it as you practice.

That's true. I've learned by practicing. By looking to others and remake those coasters. Tutorials helped me the first time, but now I have to practice if I want learn.

Click on help and stuff in the editor and they have basic tutorials on the web for you to use. When I first got it i found it so hard and annoying, so i left it for a while. Then I came back and learnt the basics like how to make a station and a continuous circuit. Then I started to do hills and simple thing like that. After that I found out about the elements in the no limits folder. I started to add them in and after a while of practice, there you have it! As i started to get into more technical stuff like tophats and barrel rolls and stuff like that I started to use AHG. Its extremely simple to use and helps a lot. So yeah just work on it and if you start to get annoyed leave it for a bit and go back to it.

I'm still pretty new to NL but I have to agree that you need to practice at it. I have downloaded the tools but I haven't used them too much myself. I think that if you can get the core functions of NL down then it will help you be a better builder. It has somewhat of a high learning curve but you will get it after a while.

i practice like crazy,,, theres never a time when i dont have atleast 3 coasters being worked on at the same time. so basicly what everyone else is saying. pay attention to what other people do, and practice... even to this day i still can't make a decent coaster... mediocre is best described for my coasters.

NL takes a while to get used to. Like everyone else said, practice, and eventually you will get it.

When I first got NL, I didn't even know how to get a single peace of track there. But after I messed up whit it I started to get a hang of it. I still ain't that good, because I don't know how to get the pumping awy from my turns, but practise makes better. I guess...
