Dash - B&M Hyper

Ok, so I haven't even touched NL in the past few months after the release of Outburst, but I've had more free time nowadays so now I've decided to mess around with it and this is the creation that came from that.

I don't have a name for it as of it yet, so any name suggestions are welcome. As well as color suggestions, colors are not final.

The Stats:
Length - 4740 feet.
Height - 194 feet.
Drop - 192 feet.
Inversions - 0.
Speed - 73 mph.

Trains - 3 trains with 8 cars per train. Riders are arranged 4 across in a single row for a total of 32 riders per train.


Pictures here

Looks cool! Nice B&M loveliness [:)]

I think that the colours you have at the moment are pretty dandy actually, the only thing I would say is that you might try and find a colour that goes well with the track and spine, rather than the grey.

Names... hmmm, the colour of the track makes it feel like mythical water beast type feel, so maybe something like Leviathan?

le.vi.a.than ????????? noun
1. (often initial capital letter) Bible. a sea monster.
2. any huge marine animal, as the whale.
3. anything of immense size and power, as a huge, oceangoing ship.

Maybe?

Thanks Dan, I'll keep the track colour and pick out another one for supports, also I will keep the name in consideration. I like it.

I also have some new pics up on the NLDC page.

There is already a NLTR competition coaster named that by Ish.

Look really awesome. Can't wait!

Go see just how many roller coasters are named that. I counted 10. Maybe a less common name, krazyt [;)]

If the name fits the ride, it shouldn't matter how many people use it.

At the end of the day, I will pick whichever name I think fits the ride best. Besides finding a good name that fits the ride and hasn't been used before is pretty difficult.

Anyhow, I'm done with support work and Ive posted a few more teasers on the NLDC.


EDIT: Some new screens are up on the NLDC page showing new station work.

The station looks like it's gonna be sweeeet .

Proper loving the lighting in that night environment, like it's being lit up for underneath, pwnsome!

How about Atlantis?

"A legendary massive city under the ocean, is finally unearthed and it turns out that they actually had the technology to make an undersea roller coaster, and it has now been taken on land, re-built and is waiting for it's next discoverer...

Take a ride on Atlantis"

How does that sound [:P]?

You should try coloring the small connector pieces you have from the support columns to the track the same color as the track, so it actually sorta looks like B&M supports. Just a little something to try out.

Hmm, ride names... Marina? Dash? Steel Sperm-Whale 2000?

I'm kinda clueless there, but beautiful looking ride so far.

Hmmm, I quite like the name Dash....

HEY!!!

How about Atlantis?

"A legendary massive city under the ocean, is finally unearthed and it turns out that they actually had the technology to make an undersea roller coaster, and it has now been taken on land, re-built and is waiting for it's next discoverer...

Take a ride on Atlantis"

How does that sound ?

Did my totally awesomely, awesome, of awesomeness, awesome, story of Atlantis get ignored? NOO!!!

*sob,sob... [;)]

I like the story itself but I just don't think it fits in with my coaster very well for other than the color maybe.

Thank you though
I still appreciate it.

Hey, I threw somethin' out there for ya!

Take it or leave it...turns out to be leave it

I put up some more pictures on NLDC.

Let me know what you guys think.

Nice station platform, and it looks like the layout is fairly nonlinear for a hyper. You'd better be releasing this soon so I get a chance to ride it!

Damn, that one station pick looked real from thumbnail size. Can't wait for the release.

Don't worry Kevin, I will be releasing it this Sunday.

That station looks REALLY nice. So does the ride. Looking forward to the release!

Thanks, I'm just working on some final details now.

I saw the station picture, and was like, "O_o 3ds. Me likey!!"....then I saw the next one and was like, "OMG those are supports!!! O_O". The same thing happened with the one picture of the ride, with the one train just cresting the drop and the other airtime hill in the foreground. It looked SO REAL in the thumbnail, it was incredible!!
But I am really liking those pictures overall...can't wait to see how the ride turns out!

Well, realism is what I am going for...



EDIT: I present you Dash.
Please leave a comment/rate. [:D]

SO, funny story...I clicked download, and then tried to open the zip file. "This zip file is invalid or corrupted." Wanna fix this? [;)]

EDIT: It must have been my computer...all better!
