SOS PLEASE HELP!!!

ok ppl i need your help. on no limits how do you guys build your own buildings. please reply as soon as possible!

You need a program like Object Creator or Anim8or that allows you to build and export objects to .3ds format. Then you add them into your ride in the editor with Scenery>Add Scenery Object.

well there are two ways...

1) build things using the supports in nl (free)
2) build things using a 3ds program (free or purchased)

It all depends on what you want to build and how realistic you want them to look. I have and still use both of these methods to build things for my coasters. If you need help on specific things you want to build there are many people here who can help you.

Use .3DS Files. There are various programs to create these, i know that Sketch-Up from Google is one of the more popular ones.

I just started using Sketchup Pro 7, It works great and it's free.

Good Luck.

Pro isn't free.

the trailversion from 450min is free

ok thanks. i think iv heard of that b4. and r u guys talking about the google sketch up cuz i looked it up there and and thats kinda all that came up

yes we probably are talking about what you think it is, just search google sketchup and then the first link, you'll find that google sketchup 7 is free.

ok thanks

Heads up for SketchUp: The shadows are really funky in the nolimits simulator. If a wall ist hit by the sun it;s almost always completely black. I made a pretty nice station but it didnt look that great in the simulator :/

This is because Sketchup doesn't export to .3ds very good. You need to export the objects in a program like 3ds Max.

Wings 3D seems to work well with NL and it is absolutely free. A .pdf tutorial can be downloaded from the Wings 3D site as well to help get you going.
