That drop transition looks weird, quite unrealistic and Newton-inspired... That's why you should post frequent updates of the making of the ride if you use Newton?????????, so you can be adviced on how to do this or that.
But I guess that now it's too late...

Anyway the supports look quite good, maybe a little bit too complicated but well.

The drop looks nothing like Expedition Geforce... Mostly because he started his banking transition during increasing poisitive verticle g's. I really don't like the shaping of the drop either LeFlo. Supports look good, and as far as I can see, the rest of the ride looks decent. [:)]

The whole ride looks like something you spliced together in a matter of minutes in Newton2...I hope it comes out better than it looks. All of the transitions are too short except for the ones where it's really obvious - the big airtime hill. That looks wayyyyyyy too pointy and like the sides are far too drawn out.

Inspiration did come from Expedition Geforce, however my attempt was to collaborate both a banked top hat/Expedition Geforce drop into one. The ride pulls an average 3.5 g's at the bottom of the drop. For the record, i recently got no limits and this is my first NL/newton 2 design. I have previous experience in Scream Machines and RCT2 so i will be using my knowledge of these two programs and my education obtained from my multiple years in physics and calculus to create the best design as possible.

UPDATE: Supports are still in progress and hope you all enjoy.

It looks like a typical newton2 track, intamin, snappy/small transitions. Yet this is your first ride? what ever happened to the days when a person really had to work hard to get good at this program?

I have attempted various designs with No Limits in the past but was not pleased with the smoothness of the rides. Therefore, i began work with RCT2 again. Some of you may know me as Pacificoaster on new element. A park that i have in progress is Starpointe Park and Resort. However, getting a new laptop with vista limited the hacks that i could do. So now in 2011, I recently learned newton2 and this is my first serious desingn.

I really like the colors. That drop looks a little weird, and some transitions look like they need to be a little longer. Next time you do a newton coaster, before you start doing supports let people tell you what to fix and so on. It will make your coaster look so much better in the end.

Well its ok but you are going to get POUNDED for alot of your shaping and trackwork. As a designer your goal should be realism, unless of course you are creating a fantasy coaster, but people want a good realistic ride, that looks nice and had more effort than you put into their ride. It should take quite a bit more trial and error to get exactly what you want from your ride.
