So I was thinkin, and I realized that I had never really made a good B&M sitdown before. That led me to start playin around and all of a sudden this came up from it. I'm givin it the name Monstar right now and the way its going, it shouldn't take long to finish.

It's a pretty traditional B&M and all hand-made. I figured since I haven't made a good B&M, why not make one and release it with new trains.

Here are some pics.

Looks pretty good so far. I personally think it might be better to make the first drop start before the turn ends, just so it has a slightly better flow, but still gives some air in the back seats. I guess something similar to Kraken is what I've got in mind. But hey, I can understand if you did it to build suspense or something like that.

yea I actually lied when I said everything is hand done. It is, except for the little turn at the top. Since the elementary makes such short segments and I included a lead-out on that turn, I divied up the first segment of the drop enough to where the last segment of the turn/first vertex of the drop have equal handles. From there I smoothed it. The turn actually ends at a -2????????? slope, so it'll give you the flow you're lookin for [;)]

And dont make everything so 90 degrees pat. The drop, the immelman, the next turn, are all parallel to the grid lines, No flavor...

It's pretty easy to get screenshots of that quality. Turn on anti aliasing, and reduce the pictures to half size.

yea I have a X800Pro and my res is set to 1280x1024, so I'd hope it looks good [:)]

and I'm picky about draw distance. I haaate seeing poor quality track off in the distance so mine is always set to high.
