Tempest - B&M Invert

Hey all,

For the past couple of days I've been working on this biatch, and it's actually turning out pretty great. I've always wanted to build one, but never really had the inspiration to because I couldn't make any good B&M elements. Finally newton2 has arrived, and I created this. I don't want to say too much else, so here are some teasers.









Took me a really long time to get the ending right, but it's done now, and I'm happy with it. Also, just to be a bit cocky, I think that the immelman came out spectacular. It just feels and looks so right.

Anyways, if you have any thoughts or comments let me know because they would be extremely appreciated.

Colors and name a pretty final, but if somebody has a ragin' suggestion, who knows. Thanks a bunch to ianko66 for the colors. They came out GREAT.

@ Gerstlcrazy: I couldn't fit in the little straight section that you loved. Just did not work with the layout. Sorry man!

That first pic made me cum.

It's um... very realistic....yeah. Everyone remember not to criticize the ride when you rate because otherwise the emo clique will unleash its wrath upon you.

I fixed it for you.

The straight section was awkwardly done anyways. Glad you omitted it.

i like the 1st inversion...it looks really cool

How many times do you have to edit your post just to get attention over some lousy joke?

I had a look at the ride, you are all going to really like this

If you ignore the bad shaping lol

Looking forward to this.

I love how almost all of us are ignoring him.

BBBuuuuttttt, Matt that post made me laugh.

I hope you're going to terraform under that drop? If it is just gonna be 30ft up in the air, it would be disappointing.

The ride looks pretty decent though, although there doesn't appear to be any real creativity to me. Finish it nicely though and it will be pretty good.

^ Well, I might also point out that this is my first attempt at making a B&M Invert. I realize that this may not be the greatest coaster on the planet, but this is what I could do as a first time attempt. Maybe that will give you all a little more sympathy... lol

And yes, I will terraform under there.

^How did you make the corkscrews? Every time I try I get a really bad transition at the apex, it's deadly.

^ There called Wing-Overs, and there pretty simple. Just take a multi-zone force, have a lead in and lead out of about 3.5 G's, and the middle zone should be about 1 - 1.5 G's, and rotate about 300 degrees.

Wing-overs, corkscrews, same diff really. Thanks though, I had a tough time with them.

They're not the same.

How original.

LOL that picture made me laugh.
Anyway, Flickstah, not only do you need to set the G's correctly, but if you're using N2, you will probably need to use a custom timewarped transition to get the right shaping. I've never tried it, but that's what I would guess. I don't believe that the default transitions will do the trick.

^ ... You just use a multi-zone force? I'm not quite sure what you mean when you say "a custom timewarped transition."

^ For extended control you can use timewarping to edit the tension and center of the transition (roll, lateral, and normal forces respectively).
