Here comes:

"Redunzelizer's Public Prefab Purgatorium Preview - V 0.6.0 (Peta)"

The 'Prefab Purgatorium' is designed as a 'Razor Edge Swiss Army Sledgehammer' for ultimately punishing, torturing and thus completely screwing up any possible NoLimits 'Prefabs'. By using this (and possibly invoking a bit of your imagination) you now will at last be able to do multiple serious harms to your prefabs as follow:

Remove various characteristics (banking, roll-settings, etc.)
Straighten a prefab while keeping original track lenght and heights.
Scale total or independently by X-, Y-, Z-orientation.
Rotate by any of the three axes. Set values by degrees and slope.
Apply a constant slope onto the track while keeping other values.
Reverse the whole prefab (ride backwards) or invert banking.
Force begin or end of prefab to be 'flat' (=parallel to ground).
Split segments mathematicaly correct by user defined value.
Trim & Cut prefabs to gain or reassemble parts of them.
Extend prefabs automatically with correlated straights.
Connect different prefabs (with some mouthwatering options!)
Clone certain characteristics of other prefabs and apply on yours.
Extract segments and save them as single files automaticaly.
Create straights, bows or user defined segments by values.
Create parabolic hats by setting desired G-forces at given speed.
Analyze some characteristics and data of prefabs and segments.
Exchange Prefab data via CSV-Text-files with spreadsheets.

and there may even be some more...

Download from:
[EDIT] Please see later posts within this thread for most recent version(s)!

Download is a '.zip'-file: 'rndzlprp060.zip'. This 'rndzlprp060.zip' will have the following contents:

- 'rdnzlprpinst.txt' Installation notes, in english and german. Plase read carefuly!

- 'rdnzlprp060.exe' The 'Public Prefab Purgatorium' programm V.0.6.0.
Put the 'rdnzlprp060.exe' into any directory of your choice. Your NoLimits installation directory or alternatively the NoLimits '\elements' subdirectory are strongly recommended for your convenience.

- 'rdnzlprphlpe.zip' Very incomplete html-help in english. Please see installation notes for usage!

- 'Purgatorium_Demo01.nltrack' A simple demo track.

Some notes on this release:

There is still much work to be done yet. So it's not yet useful to wish or recommend something for the 'Purgatorium'. Don't even try. I simply won't respond at this current state of developement.

Your comments on any bugs (and ther're lots and lots of them!) are very apreciated. You will see some debug information within the status bars. Please include all these (four) values as well as the prefab-file you were working on in case you may report anything to me. Thank you in advance!

Ther has been another intermediate release of the 'Prefab Purgatorium'. -> V.0.6.4

Most interesting new feature is the ability to change the views to bigger screensizes. On the fly! Any time! While this is still described as 'experimental' some people with larger monitors may find it very useful.

The documentation has also grown a bit. I have included another example in the 'Basic Torturial' (Building a neat helix).

Please download from:

and have fun!
