At my new home park, Six Flags Over Another State, construction has gone vertical on a new ride. All I know is that this thing is inverted. It could be Intamin, could be B&M, could even be Vekoma. Who knows? Maybe tonight, construction will be further along.

I really hope it is a Hebei Zhongye Metallurgical Equipment Manufacturing Co.,Ltd ripoff coaster.

Looks intamin

Always wanted to create this kind of construction topic - I shall be following it closely

I believe a Custom Beijing Shibaolai Amusement Equipment Inverted is Also really good

Sorry for the delay, there should be a construction update tonight. Progress looks great and I hear the designer is 100% open to suggestion.

After vertical construction has begun?

haha, funny but cool way to do the construction topic. me likey. I suggest that you show more of the ride.

It could be a head banger. JK
Great Supports, but are you able to make a wingover first drop followed by a cobra roll, and then a kamikaze curve?

Sorry once again! Construction is really moving on the lift hill. They basically have the first drop completed. It seems to take a bit of inspiration from Banshee. (Sorry mkingy this is a B&M)[;)]

I'm going to break character for a minute. hzgarfield posted a similar way of doing a construction topic that blows mine out of the water. His is on nle and has full scenery, supports, and track pieces on the ground. My goal is to make the scenery and then build the ride inside of it. Don't expect a large update for awhile. I really want to simulate the building process of a real coaster. I might even release a B-Roll and then "finish" and release a few weeks later! [:D]

Could this be Banshee's male counterpart, Banhee?

just finish the whole layout (Track and supports ) And export using Ck and took it apart using sketchup

The park has noticed me lurking a lot around construction. So to shut me up they gave me two pictures of the station area. They covered up some parts of the track as they are not fully complete and don't want to spoil the surprise. September 25th we should have our announcement!
Here it is, FireFly.

Also, here is an actual construction update. We have a loop! I hopped the fence and took a picture from underneath the loop to really see the progress (I'll add L Bosch's track connectors when the whole thing is done) Enjoy!

Maybe it's just me, but something about the shapig of the loop seems off.

Looks really wide...?

Yes the loop is too wide, need moar teardrop

On it! I'm done with the teaser style topic. My track isn't good enough to pretend its already pro level. Besides raising the entrance angle on the loop, any other suggestions to fix it? (This is exactly why none of my supports are connected.
