Lansera (swedish for launch) is my new project, as i couldn't get a grasp on the style for my last project. I'm planning to include some new elements and keep it somewhat compact.

not to be buzzkill, but from the looks of it, i think i can see a bit of a shaping issue with the immel... That will cause some lats.
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.

Actually, not at all. The g's are all very low in that immle. It's in fact shaped quite well.

And thanks, I love that cartexture, i finally found my photoshop disk!

I can't see anything at all in your pictures. Why don't you uploading some that actually SHOW the element so we can judge if something is shaped correctly. I can't assume something is shaped correctly just because you say it is, I need to see it!

Also good ******* luck keeping the G's down.

This is gonna come back bite you hard in the ass, loser. When you say this...

...without showing us a jusitification, you're deliberately ignoring advice. And when you upload the final ride with an immelman that is 'in fact shaped quite terribly', you're at your own loss.

Hard Hat Area threads are for us giving you advice and discussing your coaster. Your lamely whited-out pictures aren't giving us anything.

Well actually, what is whited out is just land. You're not missing anything in those pics, it just looks cooler that way.

But you need to accept the advise experienced builders on this site are giving. They can help you a lot (unlike on my leviathan thread) :D

omfg, just send us full element pictures! Your not getting it, there are a lot of experienced roller coaster designers on this site (not saying I am, but I can see shaping pretty well), and were here to help. When you say "G's are very low on that immel", I take that as your lats are going to be somewhere between 0.4 and 0.8. Think about it. 1 G is your own body weight, if you have a 1.5 G lateral, your being thrown pretty hard.
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.

Looks a bit sharp at the top. How do the G's stand?

Quite low. That really only looks sharp because of the angle.

Just as I thought it would be [lol] Banking needs to begin rotation before the peak of the element.

When it comes to laterals, though, it rests at 0Gs without force. So yeah, 1.5 lats is alot. Even 1 lat is pretty significant.
