Tonatiuh

This is my new special creation for Xmas!
A funny SLC by Vekoma:
height 41m
max speed 88 km/h
max g force 4,9 g

I'm paying attention on the layout to create a clean and realistic one.
Japanese theme.
First pics here:

That looks really cool! Might you consider changing it to a flying coaster?

SLC's are not AHGed.

the cross over looks pretty close. is it tunnel tested?

^Do you know that his is AHGed?

And I think you mean to say SLC's aren't heartlined. No real roller coaster type is AHGed.

....sorry teacher. ill try harder next time. [:I]

look at the Inline twist which looks like a zero g roll. it looks heartlined.

I'm looking forward to it, Barone. I expect we'll see some excellent objects later on as well, no?

I tried but to make a good one (with more flying position) vert g's were really too high.

0g roll is heartlined...I'm not sure about the other parts...it looks good and quite smooth with this version but I'll try.

Cross over is tunnel tested and it's ok.

As always some nice objects will decorate it![:D]

Here is the complete layout:3 trains run perfectly.
This time I'm particularly satisfied 'cause layout has the right length for a Vekoma and all transitions are pretty smooth.
I tried to create no repetitive elements and the result is quite short but funny!
As you can see main elements are a loop,a cross cobra-roll,a 0-g roll,a flatspin,a small inclined dive-loop and a high speed helix.

Now I'm going to build supports and start 3ds.
I think Kumali style is going to fit good[hello]

This was another abandoned project that I decided to continue after my short period of silence.
My trip gave me new inspirations and I wasn't satisfied with the japanese theme.
I found some nice textures for an Aztec scenery.

I changed the name in Tonatiuh.
Here some pics of the new version:

wow, that's really nice. Glad you continued, can't wait till it's on the exchange

Me neither, looks great, just like a real SLC!

Hi,I'm not too far from the release.
I have to finish cobra-roll and lift supports and to complete scenery....

New pics of the result:

hey, that looks awsome. i cant wait to see it. [:)]

It really does look amazing, looking forward to it.

I love what I've seen from the pics! Everything, from the track, the scenery and the supports! I hope you add flanges, though, cuz that would make the supports look even better!

Yer add flanges, but your own, never autoflange.

I usually use auto-flanger but then I absolutely work on them....'cause it changes many things.We need an update for that!!!![approve]

I think I'm going to upload the ride tonight.

I know that Cobra-roll supports look a little bit unrealistic for the Vekoma style but,for those who are going to rate it,pls don't judge it too bad 'cause I got mad and this was the best solution I could find!
I think it's more important that there is no collision with tunnel test[lol]

Awesome job man, I only have one thing to say here...E-mail this design to Vekoma! [:P]

For the rest check my rate..

Many thanx Gav
