what i see look really good...the shaping of the hills is good...but i don't like the wood texture in the station...maybe you could make it slightly darker and musty

See the difference in the transition?

It's not a big mistake, it was enough to catch my eye tho.
Still not bad, tho.

I'm not being rude or snobby, or anything. But I'm still not entirely sure what's wrong with the transition. My drops quite a bit bigger with a slightly steeper drop angle, but it still looks very B&M to me. Even with that picture. It might be more comparable to Behemoth's drop as I have a banked bottom bit.

I'm not trying to cause an argument or anything and I'm always looking at ways to improve on my ride building! But I'm still a little confused. Am I missing something? If you have the time, could you PM me about what's wrong.

If it's the TOP of the drop though! I did have trouble with that, this IS my first Newton coaster.

EDIT: I think I see it now.

Yes, I did mean the top, it's a bit flat and doesn't transition that nicely into the actual drop part. It's like there's 2 different segments...
How exactly did you make the drop?

Not a bad looking cave, what type of polygon did you use for the mist?

The queue is finished now, just details such as signs, details on the paths and foliage need to be done. And The ride will be released on SUNDAY, APRIL 11th

A view from the track of the station and the queue entrance.

The queue passes into the castle and out round the back into the orchid before returning into the castle up into one of the towers, where stairs lead up to the loading platform.

Just a random picture I took, of the ride's three biggest hills, the MCBR and the second helix.

that ride is practically sexually appealing.

Whoo, that is one beautiful ride, I was actually going to release a Hyper coaster...or invert named "The White Dragon" to kind of act like the Dragons are battling each other.

But...I don't think my handbuilding can match a Newton 2 B&M Hyper. What do you think?
"Don't be a disability"... yep, still keeping that. :P

Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

Dude, the atmosphere is fantastic. This coaster is looking really great. You sure are lucky to have such a talented friend to collaborate with. Good job.

My favorite Hyper,great work!But what is this box in the cave about?
All RCCAs should be RMC'd. And that event shall be henceforth known as the Rollercaust.

Dude, as much as I agree with you, that was uncalled for. He has a right to believe whatever he wants.

And Tidus, there's no way handbuilding can match this [;)]

The box in the cave was to position the cave! I forgot to take it out!



Actually I forgot to ask Andre to take it out, but alas he is at work. I'll reupload it without it later in the week, but for the time being, ignore it please =/. Sorry people.
