Mirage Invert Contest - Results p. 14

So much for originality. I thought everyone was making the Intamin SLC, not the Vekoma SLC.

Anyone got a B&M?

I did. But I scrapped it because it was so awful. I dunno what happenned, but I just can't do 'em anymore. And my SLC is looking cruddy as well. Argh.. I shall not give up!

Me, me! I'm making a B&M!

Damn. Screw SLC too. I'm going for a concept of my own. So hah!
Originality will prevail.

I'm also making a B&M.

I'm sorry about dropping out. Reasons?

A. I'm an idiot who doesn't know what to say and when to say it.
B. I downloaded this thing from a website called www.internetgamebox.com from an ad on this site, it's a spyware program. It looks cool, the page is well designed but what it does is it maxes out your CPU. Meaning your computer is working at full capacity no matter what you do. Like, you'll have paint open and your CPU will be at 100%. The other thing it does is it actually tracks the websites you go to and gives you pop up ads based on that. So if someone links you to it, don't download it. Now I can't even use NL because the editor and sim go SO slow I can't tell one thing from the next, finding pumps is like looking for a needle in a hay stack.

Sorry, I'm -LAME [:)]

I'm also building a b&m.

^Cool

Haha I was just playing with the lameness thing. If your issue is spyware try spybot search and destroy (just google that), it works for most things. If that doesn't work try adaware.

wierdly im building a vekoma. its based on jubalie oddersy (spelling?) and its big fast and thrilling. ive tryed to keep the layout fairly simple thought with you saying it needs to be intence but not too intence

Arrrggghhh!!! My pacing sucks after the MCBR and the forces are????????? well????????? on the limit, this sucks big time! But nonetheless, I'm keeping my track style even though some of the elements have excessive hang time.

I am just creating my own style... not based on anything...

^I'm with you. All I'll say is that it's a fast-paced B&M, forced right to the limits [:D]

I have a vekoma SLC with the elements a little edited to be different...

Can I still join? If so, I'm in
(But this is my first contest ever... OOOOOOH, IT'S SO EXCITING!!![:p])

I'm building a coaster (can't remember the type) and it had 6 inversions, but 1 of it was giving me 3 Lat or so, so I had to remove it, and another one (just a plain inline) is at least 1.8 Lat, so lots of work to do...

Just keep trying...

i'm in...no garuntees tho, jsut somehting to pass the time

Anyone going to show some teasers?

Sobek, you use a lot of elipses.........

As for mine, I've been busy with work and my car. Will get to it though.

I still need ideas. Mine isn't coming along at all.

I know... [;)]

I tried the flat roll thing and didn't want to pass 1.2G lat but noticed that with a 4 seat inverted, you either have to let the train go along it very slowly or it needs to be huge.

Therefore I built my own roll called a SOAFeR (Sort Of A Flat, non zero G Roll)! [:p]

I know, I got mine OK, but the speed (around 50 km/h) was far too fast for the small roll I made.
For that, I made the roll longer and longer and longer until the G's went under 1.2 Lat... And therefor it's (I guess) the worlds longest inline [:D] about 94 meters [:D][:D][:D]

i'm finding it exceedingly difficult to get a barrel-roll, or a corkscrew under 1.2 lats...i've changed the height, lowerd and raised the banking, etc...nothing works, except making the worlds longest heartline, which deffinetly doesnt fit. any tips?
