A little Eurofighter I put together using Newton to put my newly learned anim8or skills to work.

If anyone could please convert this track to a 3d, that would be so amazing!

the crest for the lift hill looks misshapen, are you sure that's right?

Yeah, it is most likely misshapen. I haven't really messed with it yet.


EDIT: Is this better? I tried to match it to Saw...

Ignore the random section of 3 tube at the very bottom, that got changed.


And can anyone convert this to 3ds for me?

split up the top lift segment, raise the middle vertex up a little bit, and then use auto smooth, just a quick fix.

your lift hill isn't straight...

also the top is really sharp off the top of the vertical section of the lift, then flattens out, then is really sharp at the top of the drop again, try to make it more rounded and symmetrical.

So I should do the old flip a circle 3d on its side trick to make a perfect circle? I didn't think that the tops of the lifts were that round...But having never ridden a Eurofighter and only seeing a few pics, I guess I could be wrong.

Now better? I flipped a circle 3d on its side to shape the top, I hope it's correct now.

what are you using to build your coaster because you could make perfect lift hills using HSAK... and purgatorium
So, my friend came up to me the other day and asked if I wanted a frozen banana, and I said no, but I want a normal banana later, so... yea.

Hand building lift/brake run and Newton for trackwork. I don't understand all of those equation filled/elementary tools.

fair anough, and the crest looks ok now, best to use more than just a couple segments if you wanna get proper shaoing
