Coasterdude, I have to say, Rouge Rattler looks amazing! Far better than anything I have ever put together.

That being said, I tried my hand at custom wooden supports. I don't like many free nodes. What does everyone think? I tried to model NTG.

Nice job trying to model off of NTG, as it is not the easiest ride in the world to try and model off of (i would know since it is my home park). Going to be a fun competition indeed.

That is really looking good!

I love all the entries so far! This is going to be a tough competition indeed!

Looks like the three of us are going to have some difficulty with this one.

I am sorry if this has already been said but if someone could tell me if you can alter the terrain and move the supports inside the template :?:

You can not alter the terrain within the template however you can allow supports to go outside of the template boundaries. You are more than welcome to terraform outside of the boundaries and add 3d objects (trees, rocks, etc.) in other words make it look pretty. :)

I think this one turned out better. Sorry for no rails! I am trying to figure out an appropriate color scheme for "Ragin' Rattler".

OK thanks but could someone tell me if the supports inside the template which we have to use can move if we wish or do they have to remain where they are. :?:

EDIT: "Remember guys, you can modify/move existing supports, just not delete. Just try to keep in mind where paths are/where the supports are really needed. You also must use at least the four provided structures, if you wish to add more, you are more than welcome to; the extra structure is outside the template for a reason."

Clarification please.


must stay where they are as in that turnaround section and over the path. those two areas must have stilts at one point or another, but the structures can be moved and modified, did that help?

It will be difficult imo, but if you wish to, that is completely up to you.

Question: Can we place flat rides in the do not build areas? For example placing that tower drop ride where it's located in real life

Sorry thought of another one: Can 3D models also exceed the 120ft height limit, like if i were to put flags on the lift hill? Thanks

Not that much longer. The hype is starting to build in anticipation of these creations.

Just thought I would upload the progress of the supporting phase. I have also decided to name this Revenge of the Rattler

Im not sure why the envelope wont attach to the train... Never had that problem before. Maybe import the coaster again and try to attach it that way.
