Veryyy cool. The hyper looks like it's gonna be a good one, and the invert is the perfect complement. I like where this is going.

Looks like you're pulling that idea off very well. 0G through the loop looks awesome :D

In the first picture the shaping looks really odd. Might just be a weird angle cause it looks good in the last picture.

I like the look of each track, but the hyper seems really small and they look very jumbled being that close to each other. Otherwise I like it.

Idk the exact technical problem with it but I can tell that it starts to unbank a bit too early. Especially compared to a real life version of a similar sized immelman..

Looks like someone was inspired from marathoning Goliath at Deep South Bash! I was having so much fun!

You were there?

Haha I think I rode the back seat at least 10 times without getting off. Doesn't top the 30+ from 09 or even 2011 though

Ehh i still think it just looks a tad awkward. Montu has a larger radius at the top so its able to start unbanking earlier. But thats just me being anal im sure its fine..

The invert looks fantastic. If anything, the only discrepancy I could point out is that B&M airtime hill being too sharp and steep. What do the forces look like on it though?

you have to remember though Kyle, that that Invert is so unlike the others in so many ways that you can't really use it to compare it to NL coasters. I think think this project looks great as usual but would be even better for NL2, especially if you could time that wing-over and drop combo.
What are these for?

I know my shaping isn't great, but I'm not trying to be super right on with these like I am some of my projects (ride of steel for example).

The mega is actually pretty forceful, like Goliath is. 3.5 in most valleys, -0.5 on some hills.

Looks very neat so far. I hope you're going to export the ride as an object so you don't have to do supports twice.

Yeah, I'm supporting them both in ONE file. Mega is already done, now I'm working on supporting the .3ds invert in the mega track file. Then I will just save a copy and replace the .3ds invert with the actual track in the same exact position and place a .3ds mega where the track for it used to be, again in the same spot. These screenshots came from a test of that and it worked perfectly! The supports on the 0g roll were the bait.

Will you be adding paths and such to both the coasters or leaving it fairly 'bare'?

Plan is to have a 3d road and parking lot made, similar to SFOG. Anyone able to make these? Should be really simple.

Yeah I was on New Hotness! I think I might have talked to you a little bit. I hung out with Amber for a little while on the trip. I also participated in Robb's video about how gay you are, hahaha. Yeah I thought Goliath was sweet. Front seat ride for me, I got about 12+ rides on it that day.

Coasters look great by the way.
