Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

Hello again. I'd like to present what will be my last update before Monday's release. First, some information:

Name: CYPHER III
Designer: DC High Heat

Coaster Type: Intamin AG Suspended Catapult Coaster
Propulsion System: Linear Induction Motor Launch

Top Speed: 77mph
Height: 205' 10"
Max Drop: 198' 11"
Track Length: 3322' 3"
Ride Time (Station to Station): 1m 47s
Ride Time (Launch Start to Brake End): 38s

Track Design/Construction Method- Newton 2, Auto Heartline Generator (AHG)


Some important notes before release:

-This ride is intentionally designed to be short, original, and intense in the style of other launched Intamin designs such as Furius Baco, Storm Runner, Volcano, RITA, and Kingda Ka. The ride time keeps excitement up while maintaining reasonable cost. Here's a comparison:

Ride Time (Launch Start to Brake End):

RITA: 25s
Kingda Ka: 26s
Storm Runner: 30s
Furius Baco: 33s
CYPHER III: 38s
Volcano: 44s

I fully expect to get destroyed for my length, despite the fact that I think these stats show CYPHER III as one of the longer rides of the given style. I hope you all will consider trackwork detail, pacing, and overall quality along with stats *in relation to* real life counterparts. I'm fully open to discussion if you agree or disagree, so please feel free to comment and allow me to reply to any thoughts you may have before release.

-The "Watch Your Head" sign on the side of the train, as seen on other rides such as Volcano, only works correctly on the loading side of the train. Because of constraints with No Limits cartextures, the other side of the train displays a mirrored sign. It's not very noticeable while the ride is moving, so I decided to leave in the extra detail despite the issue.

-Please don't expect Thunderhead Falls; my focus was on overall quality and ride excitement, not a huge amount of scenery. What I've done is what I feel makes the coaster itself as realistic as possible (generally speaking: station, queue, pathways, electrical/mechanical additions, footers, lights/trashcans/benches) without going overboard with theming.

With all that said, I think the ride really came out well, and I can't wait to release for you all to enjoy riding as much as I have designing! I'll end with a few more pictures:

Questions and comments are welcome!

I really like how this ride is presented. Short, simple, and it looks realistic. And I like how the 3ds aren't the main focus of the ride.

Thanks, I'm glad. I made sure trackwork quality was as good as possible, with lots of details that I hope people like you and others will appreciate.

Idk if it is just the angle but one of the footers in that 1st pic doesn't look quite centered.

You call him immature by responding days later just to call him so? Incredible.

I'm sorry I don't look at the same thread every day examining it. That post could of been from today or a week ago, I haven't seen the thread since I posted last and I don't look at post dates. And besides, hes a special situation, he finds something to comment about with some of my posts for absolutly no reason at all.

Don't be stupid as much and you'll get less reminders.

I fight with whatever is given to me.

And to make my post worth anything, since ckmwm obviously doesnt believe in any such thing, is that ground texture custom? The colors and 3d's textures look great.
