In the first picture the first turnaround looks very pumpy, also the overbank looks like it could be a little pumpy, or maybe have high laterals? but everything else look good.

Looks interesting.

It probably doesn't all need to be 4 rail track though..

Nice ride; solid design. It looks like you even have a bit of a pre-lift section as well. The only thing I might say right now is that the far turnaround looks like it may have some awkwardness/pumps, but otherwise seems like a good coaster.

Hm, yeah, it's 46 m (150ft) so thats not really a Giga then. About that turnaround, I'm building my coaster completely by hand, and the turnaround is almost smooth. Not totally, I'm not the world's best builder. The G's are good,though. And yes, it has a pre-lift section. [:)]

^Sorry, things like that drive me crazy...

On the other hand, your coaster looks good. How is the pacing?

Srry for the dubblepost, but I've tried my best on the supports and I want to know what you think about it.

Image

Btw: I know that one support is weird, that's because of the track underneath it. Will be changed. And flanges will be added at the end.

Pull the nodes a little bit higher, because now you have these holes in your supports.

That's just No Limits, I cant help it (unless I make hundreds of extra nodes for every single support, but thats not neccesary to me). By the way, if there is anybody wo could help me with some smoothing, that would be apricieated.

^should've asked before you started the supports, but if you're willing to correct some of them, I'd be happy to help you.

The ones you have in this thread are all .png images, which I don't think can be uploaded to the NLDC. Try uploading your original screenshots, they should be .bmp files. NLDC will even resize them for you.

The supports look great.
