Hi Zazu long time no see

I know that it's the 1287659th time you read this question but......more or less a RELEASE DATE???
I'm waiting NL2 to restart designing[;)]
Thank You in advance Phyter!

^this

Haha, I have noticed a decline in the number of quality rides being uploaded or even given construction threads.

It's true for probably quite a few of us. I doodle all of my rides before they ever reach the NL stage, and most of them now I'm thinking up things that are going to be perfect for the improved terrain and tunnels etc. on NL2, so I've put them to one side until NL2 comes out... they're beginning to pile up

I have a theory that n00bs who upload tracks that are not rated (tho ideally they shouldn't upload tracks until they get more experienced) don't know what to improve on so they keep making the same low quality rides as before (or they do because they don't like criticism), and some of the crap tracks that do get rated, the comment is something like "booooring" or "this sucks. It could be better" without really explaining, and further discouraging the uploader.
And giving ratings might help give people a better idea rather than blindly downloading, tho it might also be good to download a high or low rated ride anyway just to see if it actually deserves the rating it got.

I'd make something but I don't have the goddamned time ugh.

The staff of this site is always open to ideas on how to bring up the rating percentage for this reason. If you have an idea, PM one or all of us and we, the staff and maybe the VIPs, will talk about it.

^ I for one have been here for quite some time. Lately I've noticed that my current floorless contest has gotten an astounding amount of attention. Much more than I would have expected. Yes, that is in part due to our current season. Kids are out of school and such. However, the contest HAS done a good job of boosting activity, as well as getting some otherwise "burnt out" designers very interested. I will continue to do contests similar to this one in order to play my part in boosting site activity.

I have another jet coaster that the supports are almost finished on. My jet coasters are certainly better than most of the noob coasters that are uploaded on here. I always put good detail into them. I cannot wait until No Limits 2 that will allow 3d catwalks on any piece of track.

You can do that now, cool5. Just change all the segments to brake sections and check the box that says "hide brake device". Play with the settings so it's not changing the momentum of the coaster, and ta-da!

But the default catwalks look so lousy and they are not as tall as the wooden catwalk railings. The NL2 automatic 3ds catwalks will look so much better and they will automatically connect to the track. I hope that they can be customized for my jet coasters.

I hope so too cool5. I hope so too.

How about an update?

95% done with it? WOOOO! Tho sadly I don't think I'm going to do too much with scripting unless maybe someone is kind enough to write some detailed tutorials.
With all the professional features and immense rays of awesomeness, my biggest fear is the price. It sounds like it could get pretty expensive. I worry about that more than the release date being unannounced.

$50 or GTFO.

I want to make a whole park of playground slides that I can virtually slide down with the walkmode feature.

Here goes another 5 years of trying to make boulder dash.

God, I can't wait. Now, since the language used to script the animations is custom made, does that mean we're going to see some sort of documentation on the features that are totally custom made? I know it borrows from Java and C# but will it only borrow from those making it only technically custom made and not a true custom language?

NL2VM is a fully custom language based on popular object oriented syntax. The API is fully documented and the reference including in the in-game help guide.

Very nice. I can't wait to fool around and make some totally awesome animations.

this is making my benis hard

Yes, I'm going to need a better computer.

I may lose a good deal of my life to this...

that just made me re-excited for this, if thats an actual word.
on another note, where can I find a real flat ride like that?
