Update 1.6 will be huge. All the coaster styles with low detail levels that were made for the very first version of NoLimits will be redone for 1.6 with much higher quality. Also there will be a couple of new and complex coaster styles including flying coasters and spinning coasters. A couple of more coaster styles and features not presented here yet, might find their way into the program, too. Originally, 1.5 was meant to be the last update and we wanted to concentrate on NL2 but we could not resist to bring out another update. A lot of internal discussion was made whether 1.6 should be free or not. Until now every update was free for every customer using NoLimits from the first version on, since end of 2001. We came to the conclusion that 1.6 would be worth some bucks and should not be free, but we will give customers of previous versions a discount. The price for the regular full version will not change, so people not having NoLimits yet will be able to buy 1.6 for the regular price. Customers of the previous version will receive a discount email offer to get NoLimits 1.6 for the discount price as soon as it is out. The discount price is not set yet but will not be higher than the half price of the regular full version. In all cases everyone who decides to buy it, will receive a full installer setup file with a new key. This cannot hurt, because the updated files will be large anyway and a lot of people might not have the original setup file any more.
Now lets get back to our screenshots. This time we show the new 4-seat across inverters and new standard footers for steel coasters. A lot of time was spent on recreating the real cars. Thanks go to Tom for his time on recreating the real thing as precisly as possible. Kudos also for Phyter who again did an incredible job in texturing it. Kay 'Buster' Grossweischede created the new footer for steel coasters.
