New Track Update Nov 30

Finally completed a coaster track. Its gotta over banked zero g roll. More pics will come.

Pretty much got the cat walks done, just gotta do the MCBR and transfer track. Then I am onto the station and terrain.

your catwalks looks awesome....and what program you use?

Still solidworks, learning so much still.

I don't think I really like the banking on that first dive loop. I think the first half looks too vertical and the banking too quick. If you used Newton, well, you might as well leave it. I think fun factor is more important than worrying excessively about correct shaping.

^looks similar to hair raiser to me..

Ya the banking is different, it was kinda my goal at first to make some unique elements, hence the dive loop zero g roll and immelman. I gave up on the track work so there is a bunch of problem here and there that could be fixed. I just wanna get a coaster done instead of shaping it forever.

Got some work done on the storage shed.

Got a staircase in now to. Prolly gonne be done with this model.

everything looks so bright and shiny, what does it look like inside the sim

Workin on that now, I dont know what good settings are, but it wont look like it does in SW.

Heres some editor shots. Next up is the terrain, wish me luck.

That station with lots of stairs up to it looks like my Japanese jet coaster stations.

the green is maybe a little too bright. add a little grey and lower the brightness a bit

Looks really good but I'm with Turbo on the green being a bit too bright.

Okay I'll see if I can dub it down a hair.

Not much of an update visually, but this was alot of work getting the terrain to conform to the shape of the cement trench. Now that I got that figured out I should be able to smooth it out and get some good shaping going.

What I have circled looks like a really painful and headbanging transition. The rest looks amazing though.

Wow u guys spot everything. That had to be there like that cuz I needed to shift that helix out so it would line up straight with the station. If I had 5k/hr more speed I would of had other options. It rides smooth to my surprise. Reminds me of an arrow transi.tion.

I think it looks perfectly fine

I really like it, just remove the corners that stick above the ground and you'll be good.

Looks good to me The angle can obscure how things ride, so as long as it rides well i'm sure it'll be good!

Still workin on this, and still a whole lotta nothin. Definatly the most complex shape ive ever made.

Well I kinda give up on the double cork terrain. Maybe next coaster will be better. But I moved onto the easy stuff for now like the rest of the terrain, and experimenting with fences. Heres a bunch of screens.
