Title basically sums it up: I'm working on recreating the impulse coaster at Valleyfair. Over the last six months or so, I was working on another recreation that will require a lot of 3D work - something I haven't done in close to five years. This seemed like an appropriate track for me to do trackwork on quickly as I readjust to using object creator (old school, yo).

As for how elaborate I plan on getting with the scenery, the plan right now is to finish the station and then add the queue. While I would love to add Wild Thing's turnaround, which is near the front spike and pathway, I don't have the means to do so (But would welcome someone's help if they were willing!). The pictures explain themselves.

Cool. I'll look forward to this project. Only judging from initial pictures so I'm sure changes were bound to happen, but perhaps your supports could be more blue and less purp.

It looks good, but you need to theme the hell out of it, or add surrondings at least, in order for this to be a good project. These rides usually don't show much talent. Except, your supports do btw.

At least they got up and put the effort into pissing in my coffee, unlike some people.

Spent the majority of my Saturday on this project, yet it feels like literally nothing was accomplished.

- Added the basics of a piping system for the launch
- Made the support color a bit more accurate (thanks for pointing that out GerstlCrazy; it was one of those things I did quickly, and then grew accustomed to after hours of looking at it)
- Shaped the atrium/concrete and added fencing around the perimeter

It's really weird haha, when I saw the pictures it looked right, and in the back of my head I remember them being the purple tint as well, and then later it Random Roller Coaster-ed on RCDB and I was like.... wat.

Looks really cool though. I don't necessarily think this needs to be obnoxiously themed to be a good project... Object heavy rides like the WT recreation in the community make my computer run badly lol. And your recreation looks fun either way.

Perhaps there was a nicer way for you to say that, but you're absolutely right. Hopefully with enough work, I can release a track that is able to best your 3.92-rated track (doubtful, but I can dream). You have to keep in mind that not all the members here are on your level - creatively or intellectually.

Purely speculation.... but I think you're living proof that too much masturbation can make a kid go blind.

I think they're all trying to be sarcastic and funny. But they forget that sarcasm doesn't play well with the internet. Many fights are caused this way.
