Hello all,

Been working on a Vekoma shuttle for a while and would just like opinions on what you think of the layout. It is basically an L shape but this part is my main focus as the ending is simple. I think the loops need to be little tighter but unsure.

the loops look fine in my opinion, but the lift could be a bit steeper
What are these for?

The lift could be steeper. Also get rid of that little lip/hill coming out of the station. From what I can see though that looks pretty good.
YES!

Cheers guys I'll make that lift steeper and remove that drop out of the station :) I'll work on track color later tonight and post several screens. Custom support work will start tomorrow and have some pictures to work from :)

Once again thanks :)

Here are some updated screens. The lift is steeper for the inital drop and the little hill out of the station has been removed. I have included and shot from another angle. No idea of a release yet but working on supports soon.

You could make the second lift a little steeper so it matches the first one

I think that the lifts are fine. Personally I would go with the yellow and the blue. Good job so far. Great stuff!
YES!

Just a few more screens. I have used prefab supports in the screenshots just so you all can get a rough idea. I will be doing custom supports for the ride :)

Car texture looks real nice. I want to see how you do that.

I used a template. You can download the templates from http://www.nolimitscoaster.de/index.php ... load#tools

Then just use a photo editing program like Gimp and so on to make it look like how you want. All of the textures are available in your nolimits car texture folder if you need them such as x-car and so on :) and thanks. Just started on supports now.
