snow

does anyone know how to make what would look like a snowy object that i can build a mountain out of? does anyone know where i can find a pre-made object? i'm trying to make a ride simmilar to disneyland's matterhorn but can't figure out the 3ds part. thanks![:D]

Damn u! everyone seems to be dulling my idea, thats 3 ppl now wanting to do something similar

anyway, i built a mountain once i can send u that... , or u can see how im doing my bobsled ride, http://www.NoLimitsDevCenter.net/p3353

Does anyone thing we could export RCT3 custom objects into NL?

oh wow, you're mountain looks great! how did you make it? i cant figure out the object creator to save my life. your ride is also much more intense than mine. so far it has a top speed around 20 mph but i hope to get it up to 30. good luck with yours! how do you make those 3ds?!!

3d max

basicly, the main caverns are insideout boxes..

is there a download link to 3dmax? is it free?

LOL! Is it free? No, (from the website) it costs in the range of $3,495. Maybe you can find a better price if you look around a bit. On Amazon there is one for $800.

EDIT: I found a copy for $379. here is the link:

holy crap! that's about 379 out of my price range! anyone want to make some crap 3ds for me? lol...

I've downloaded the trail version and checked out all the features of 3d max, it's more likely to be used as animation software than just to create simple or complex 3d objects. This is why I rather just stick with the NL object creator by gravimetric studios. I'm not a 3d freak, I only like it when my rides looks and feels good. I'm looking forward to the new version of object creator allot though.

Why complicate things when you can achieve your goal the simple way.[:D]
