I use a small beam for the connectors and on a normal support I would use large beams for everything else.What you saw in my pic was just that.
Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

Sounds good. Hmm.. I think I made literally all my supports medium, do you think I should change them up to the large ones?

I think the large would be good...most of them do look a tad small IMO.

Okay. Resupport the entire ride with large columns or do a specific section into large?

usually the higher up the hill, the larger the supports.

Sorry, It also has to do with the amount of stress being exerted on the track. In other words, areas with more G force may have larger supports. (I hope I didn't screw up again lol)

^ improvement. B+

I also would have excepted:

allowable distance between supports due to immovable obstructions on the ground or other reasons to spread out supports.

This ride looks like it's really coming along. Keep it up, and I want to see the release of this coaster. I'm impressed that you chose to recreate a ride.

A little news update: I'm trying to get the scenery and the supports up as quickly as I can. Intamania offered to help me with the 3ds, but I'm still trying to do some myself, but I'm not very good at it.. I'm slowly getting it done. Its a work in progress, I just need to keep working on it rather than putting it as a side project now.

Just wanted to give you guys an update. I'm leaving today for Charlotte, spending the night, then going to Carowinds for Coaster Stock, but I'll be back on Sunday.

Thank you Slosprint and Gouldy, I'll keep that information handy.

Hzgarfield - It might be a little bit, I may try adjusting it later, but right now I feel I need to get the scenery and the supports all adjusted as I can.

HKatzCoasters - Thank you so much, I'm slowly getting it done, but I'm still trying to work on it as I can. Thank you! I've never really done a recreation, but I just wanted to try it out.

Really it would be 16 to really simulate them, since there is 8 cars with 2 rows per car. But i know 16 is to much so yeah i have to agree try the 12 cars per train.

Im not for sure if they do this on Intimidator, But i know on Diamondback in the station the only thing there is wheels to make the car move no clamps in the station but i'm not for sure if they do this on Intimidator, i'm just thinking of another way to make it more realistic...
