Since the other topic about this was lost, here it is again...my newest and best coaster, Riven! The 235 ft. Intamin hyper is expected to be released during the first week of Jan., after over 3 months of work, figuring out AHG, smoothing track, terraforming, supports, etc.
The track was 100% hand built, then put through the AHG (first for me). The supports (when finished) will be 100% hand built, and will later be put through the auto-flanger. Stats to come later.

Here are some pics of what i've got so far, the ride is nearing completion: http://www.nolimitsdevcenter.net/p2911

The trackwork is 100% done, the supports are about 85% done and the scenery is about 30% done.

Also, i really need somebody to make a 3D tunnel for me, i can't do any more supports until i have a proper tunnel in place. It's only a small segment of track, and i would be willing to donate points. It would be greatly appreciated. Here's the part i need a tunnel for: http://www.nolimitsdevcenter.net/i23855

Anybody?[:)]

Lastly, i am looking for testers to give me any feedback, good or bad, on the ride so far. If you want to test, just leave me your email and i'll send ASAP. But don't ask for it unless you actually want to give feedback. Thanks!!

Thanks thundermat. Once again, I really need somebody to help make a tunnel for me. If you don't think the ride would be worth your time, i'd be glad to send it to you to check.

Any feedback?

Riven....great name. Great puzzle series as well. The Miller brothers did something absolutely fantastic. Read any of the books? The book of Ti'ana was awesome.

Anyways, nice lookin ride. Too bad it would be almost impossible to theme it to the books...

^Actually, I haven't really read any of them. I just have the game for the PC and thought it'd be a pretty sweet name [lol] Maybe I'll get around to reading them sometime.

Also, GerstlCrazy, I sent it out already. Looking forward to feedback! [:)]

I have tested this track.

First off, might I say that this was a masterpiece of a true genius!

T: Absolutely no pumps or quick jerk movements! Perfectly smooth. I love your return hills and I also love your second hill right after the first drop, amazing airtime. Your low-ground high-speed turnaround was amazing and smooth as well! I might add that you should probably keep those last few segments 4-Pipe segments instead of the 2-Pipe kind.

A: Great air and adrenaline! Your first hills as a group threw bunches of excitement at me, and I am a big lover of airtime, which those hills provided as well! I also love positive forces which were DEFINITELY in your turnaround! Great job with the first half.
Your second half, the return hills, were great! Packs of air and twists and quick direction changes! I like the dive into the tunnel and especially the air that comes after it. Again, I would keep those segments 4-pipe.

O: A layout I've never experienced, but there has been similarities (You really made this your own with all the extreme banking manueveurs). The duration had plenty of twisted banks and great hills. Also, amazing turnaround. I really love the hills that come before and after, and it's extremely smooth!

Technical: 9
Adrenaline: 9.5
Originality: 8.5

Average: 9

Great Job, Coasterguy77!

Wow, thanks for the detailed rate! I'm glad that there was also a little bit of advice on how to make the ride better, too. Thanks a lot man.

Any other testers (or somebody who would be willing to make a tunnel for the ride)?

Ok, i've done every single bit of tweaking, supporting, etc. on all the track up until the underground section (thanks SFMM homie for minor adjustments), and i can't really progress at all until there's a tunnel for that underground bit. I was hoping to get this out early January, but until there's a tunnel, it won't really get finished. So, could somebody please help and make a tunnel for me? I have no idea how. Thanks.

It's sad how this topic has been read 150 times and no one has offered the 3D a tunnel for you...Someone who's read this must have been a 3D genius. I have an excellent idea for you and it's a little exaggerated for finding a tunnel artist, but you seem desperate at the time.

This will only work if you're a member of CoasterSims. You may have already downloaded the package, but if not, download the Chaos Theory package, and run it in the sim. Go to that shoutout board before the queue and look for people that worked on the tunnels. Than ask someone there if they could do it!

Haha it's a little big, and probably not necessary, and maybe even impossible, but I'm just trying to help!

lol thanks for trying to help, but for some reason coastersims won't let me log in anymore. I guess i could try and find a tunnel from another track that fits and ask permission to use it...probably would take a long time, but i guess it would work lol

Ok, forget about that plan..Nobody could just take a bit of time to help me finish this ride up? It's not like i'm asking for a ton of 3Ds, just a small underground portion. You would get credit, i would donate points to you, and it would help me out A LOT. If i had any clue as to how to make tunnels, i wouldn't be asking for help...but i have no clue, and i know that a lot of you are really great at that kind of stuff. Could anybody please make a 3D tunnel for my ride??

..? This topic's been viewed over 200 times, and not even one person could take a bit of time from their busy lives to help me out? I don't wanna just bother everybody, but it really doesn't seem like a huge deal to make a small tunnel. Could anybody please make a tunnel for me!?

If you realy want it that much, why don't learn how to make it yourself. I find it kind of rude how you almost demand that people should help you. I'm sure most 3ds people have bether thigns to do than to help everyone that asks for a underground tunnel or station, and do you know hoe many that asks for underground tunnels and other 3ds? And do you know how much work is involved in making a tunnel like that? Sorry if I sound harsh, but I just found it rude how you expect everyone to help you.

Actually, Nosferatu has an excellent point. I have actually been working my ass off to figure out how to make tunnel. When I do though, you can bet I'll get you one, coasterguy77!

Yea, i know, if i knew how to make one myself i definately would.I tried to learn how to use the object creator and tunnel maker, but I can't really figure it out. Still trying though, and i really don't mean to be rude at all, sorry if it looks that way.
