Newton or Editor?

Newton or Editor? I see people all the time using newton. I just got it and i have no clue with what i am doing but, im wondering if i should stick using the editor or should I learn how to use newton. Basically im wondering which is easier and better.

I think its better to build with the editor because every noob can build a good coaster in newton

Not true.

I suck!

I usually build in the editor but for my current project I'm using newton because of the size of it.

Fixed.

Even if everyone used newton we'd still have tons of noob coasters on here. Smooth and good are two completely different things.

id still learn newton, my latest one is a newton coaster but i still like to build in the editor too. both have there place

The thing with Newton, for a first time user, it's hard to actually build what you envision. Most rides come out differently, it's hard to get the feel of a ride correct with Newton, unless you spend hours watching videos of the elements you want to emulate. Hand building leads to hours (in my case years) of smoothing to get the desired effect.

Easier and better are almost always two different things, so you shouldn't be asking us what YOU should do, but rather you should be asking us how to achieve what YOU want to accomplish. There is no easy way to make what you want using either method.

@guitarplayer673: yea youre right sorry

Seems like coasters with inversions get built with newton or the bigger ones are built with it also. Probaly learn how to use newton if I come into a project I need it for.

That is not true. Most noobs make the shortest transitions and make it the roughest ride you could imagine. I used to do that.

My view is this: A handbuilt n00b coaster will suck. A Newton-built n00b coaster will suck. However, the Newton one will at least be smoother.
