hey, can you test next update? i have had a lot of testers.

Thanks btw

UPDATE!

I have modified the transition in to the flat section (-G's to 1.0 G) to make it longer and smoother.


For all you people saying the drop looks off, i compared my ride to T Express and it seems very similar imo.

Hm, Doesn't look too bad, but it seems like the turn into the drop was a tad linear... Doesn't look to bad though compared to the T-Express vid.

Hard to tell with such slow FPS. It doesn't have to be exactly the same as T Express though, of course. As far as drops go, they have some similarities, but El Toro =/= T Express =/= Colossos. Not necessarily speaking to you Jcoasters, but in general you'll be fine if you make sure you note the similarities between the rides of the given style, then use that as a starting point.

Thanks for the feedback guys, but as i am not as experienced as you dcs, I would really appreciate it if you explained in further detail how to make the drop better. After just watching a mounted pov of El Toro, I noticed it even has that pump that mine does after it curves and starts to drop. Pleas elaborate, It would be wonderful.

Also, sorry about the low fps. I have a shitty computer and i am going to build myself a new one soon.

"Not necessarily speaking to you Jcoasters" means what I said doesn't necessarily apply to you right now, it's just a thought that could be helpful to someone making any element.

I am a blind old man [V]

UPDATE!


I have deleted and started over on the drop. I have modified the drop in Newton while I was looking at a picture of T Express. Please comment and criticize.

Looks good

Put catwalks on just ONE side only, not both sides and make it switch to the outer side of each turn.

It will have Intamin style catwalks.

and yes, it will have black hole tunnles at the bottum of the first drop

Update, I changed it a bit but i think i need to modify it again. The first part of the drop does not look round enough

I Have decided to cancel this project as, It is too big of a challenge for me. Once i become more skilled and have the skills to tackle something like this, then i will

That sounds reasonable. I am working on a prefab project and they are also extremely hard to support and im not sure i care to finish.
