New Roller Coasters

Hey guys, I'm currently working on a park that I intend to put about three or four rides into! I've only just started creating the park and the first ride I've begun work on is going to be a dive machine. I've got to the stage of completing the vertical drop but I have hit a brick wall at this point.

So, do you guys have any requests that you would like to see from a dive machine roller coaster? If so, leave them below and I'll create the idea that I like the sound of the best!

Thanks guys, Alex

I would love to see some pics.

I don't know how it would work out, but, I think a vertical loop on a DM would be pretty cool.

Okay, I can do both of those. First I'll make the vertical loop and then I'll get a picture up for you

And how do you upload images into comments on a post like this one?

click the "reply to topic" button then click on "upload picture." the picture type to upload is .Jpg. to convert to a Jpeg type I use paint.

Or the paperclip in the top left.

If you do a vertical loop, do it like that new eurofighter in japan.

Hey guys, here are the pictures you asked for

Anything else you guys want to see from a dive machine?

The loop looks a little too narrow, like you might have issues with clearance on the entrance and exit. Also a side profile would be great because the one picture of the loop makes it look like an almost perfect circle.

Looks strange cause most dive machines at the top of the lift hill have a turn before they make there drop.

^ Yes but it still looks like the loop would have wacky g's because of hte way it is shaped, the exit is normally much further forward than the entrance but that view makes them look like they are almost even with each other.

You're right there, the entrance and exit of the loop have insane g's! Any way to reduce that do you know without making the loop too large?

You want the loop to look like this http://www.rcdb.com/617.htm?p=577

Oh I see! Thanks a lot! I'll make the changes and upload the photos tomorrow!

Yeah when you take a picture of the loop take it from the side.

Here is the image of the new loop.

I have also created the turn just before the vertical drop. What else would you guys like to see from a dive machine?

The latest addition to the B+M Dive Coaster I am creating! This track should be done within a few days now as my exam season is over! Let me know what you think of the section I have added in. The new section consists of an airtime hill, the first brake run and the second vertical drop. Any suggestions for what I should add in after the second vertical drop bearing in mind the station is off to the right of the image and I need to start heading back that way to end the ride nicely without a ridiculously long brake section

Well, here it is! The track for the B+M Dive Coaster is complete! I'll be working on supports for the next couple of days and should have the track finished and uploaded by the end of the week!
