There is a tool called the auto heartline generator, which banks the track and splits it into multiple segments. Someone else will provide a link I would guess.

Try the topic search button though too. I've seen about 5 topics on this in the last few weeks.

What don't you get about it? Be more specific about your problem and people will be able to help you. And yeah, like Woodie Man said, you can always just search for it. Questions about this have been posted hundreds of times, I'm sure you'll find the answer in one of those threads.

Just because a coaster does have tons of segments it doesn't mean it's always smooth. If you insert a crappy track into the AHG, you will get a crappy outcome... (but then heartlined...)

If you want something smooth. Practice is the key. You don't need 200 segments in one inversion for that...[:)]

Any number of things could cause that. What exactly do you mean by 'weird' and 'messed up'? I can't emphasize this enough, you need to be clear about what your problem is if you want people to give you useful advice.

Try using a higher filter setting. It's the bottom box in the AHG. about 100 should be fine.

You have to use a part of a coaster, not a full circut ride. Like from lift to brakes.

You also need to actually have the correct speed settings. It's in meters per second, so you need to convert it from mph of kph or whatever. There's a converter at the bottom of the NLDC coaster calculator. http://www.nolimitsdevcenter.net/calculator I'm not sure whether you have to be loggod on to get to it or not.

For some people, yes. For others, like me, it's elementary. But if you don't get AHG I doubt you'll have a lot of success with elementary, its even more mathmatically based. And even then, it still takes a fair bit of practise to be good at using it properly.
