Hey, this coaster will be an Intamin Hyper. I've been playing with elementary for quite a while now, so I've decided this will my first uploaded coaster using elementary. Just so you all know, this thing is intense. It reaches +4.9-5.3 g?????????s depending on the seat. It also has some extreme ejector air; the first hill hit -1.8 g?????????s in the front. I think it is turning out really nice, and had some nice elements, and so far, one unexpected pop of ejector air. If it gets done in time, it could possible be themed toward Halloween. It will probably also have some custom underground tunnels. Any comments would be nice.
Sorry, I don't have a name yet.

Looks good so far.

Maybe The Reaper as a name if your going with the Halloween/Spooky sorta theme.

I like what I've seen so far. Keep going with this project and I'm sure it'll turn out nice.

It looks nice so far. Just one nitpick, you probably don't need the 4 tube box track on most of the track, 3 tube triangular track would probably be enough for the majority of your layout.

^ what he said. You dont need much 4 tube track at all. Looks good other than that, and seing as it is made with elementary we can expect it to be smooth. [:D]

Changed some of the first half today. I removed the two helix's after the small bunnyhop, and replaced it with a small turn, another bunnyhop, dip, and the MCBR. I decided the second half should have lots of airtime, it also has some ground-hugging curves. Should be updated by tomorrow night, I'm not on my own computer right now. Oh, colour scheme has been changes slightly, rails are now a deep red.

-1.8 is almost too strong. How long are you over -1.5?

I reworked the beginning a while back, the first hill on hits -1.5 g's; that is probably the most intense spot of air on the ride thus far.

P.S. With elementary, how do you make a non-invertine corkscrew with the HSAK, I'm clos, but van't really figure it out. Thanks.

Ok, finished the track today. I'm now starting to terraform. Hopefully I'll get an update by tomorrow.

What do you guys think about Cerberus for the name; it's the watchdog of the underworld. It has three heads. Anyway, if I use that name a colour change would be in order. Something dark...

Did a search on google for Roman and Greek gods, Cerberus popped up and I liked it.

Cerberus.... Is that the three headed dog from roman mythology that guards the gates of hell?

I love roman and greek mythology, I dont believe in it, but it is interesting.

Ditto. I obviously dont believe in it, but it is interesting to read about and debate upon. Plus alot of it is just really cool in premise even if its VERY far fetched and crazy.


But who can deny the coolness of 3 headed dragons?!

To be more specific, it's the three headed giant dog that guards the Greek underworld.

Still a cool concept! I also like greek mythology, some of the stories are so interesting. I also like how they made stories to descripe natural phenomenon that they didn't understand, such as the story of Persephone and the seasons.
