What's up commenters and lurkers!

If you've hopped into the cc chat you will know that I share the progress of my lesser known or even unknown rides to get feedback and also for fun, so pop in sometimes, say hello :D

I needed to take a break from Nordland and do something different. So here is my new project: Infinity.

PICS WERE HERE, BUT PHOTOBUCKET IS TRYING TO FORCE ME TO BUY. I WILL NOT. CHECK LOWER IN THE THREAD FOR PICS

It's fast, it's slow, it's forceful, it's relaxing. This has been one of the most fun rides to make so far because of the layout and it's only going to get better. I plan to be adding custom triggered audio in certain places in the ride and I also hope to have someone make a few 3D objects if the time comes that they are needed. I will take care of lighting and such, I will also take care of the environment which will be set at dusk and will look quite beautiful once I'm done.

As usual, comments, questions, and concerns are always welcomed and appreciated :)

The layout looks massive!

Is that huge, quite round loop, a hang time loop?

Well unfortunately I just realized the way I WAS going to do the spine will not work. I'll either need to make them with freenodes and beams or not at all and go the simple route with the really thick spine. What do you guys think?

Looks good Turbo - a tad unrealistic given the cost to build this beast however!

As in the spline that you have on the launch? I think the thick spine will be okay - otherwise there might be a 3D option?

Eh honestly I don't think so. The max height is at 53 meters while much bigger rides have been built. Even after the supports are finished, terrain is done and the theme is good I'm pretty sure it'd cost less than some of the hyper's and giga's out there today.

I'm going to try the thick spine and post what it looks like tomorrow.

Mmmhm might be the angles then I guess giving me a false sense of height. However, hypers have much more simplistic supports (with the exception of Steel Dragon obviousely but thats $52 Million dollars worth of ride) which some lot of this ride, with the inversions, isn't going to benefit from. I mean, Hollywood Rip Ride Rocket cost $45 million - and given the amount you put into theming you put into rides I think it's quite comparable.

Actually this ride will have minimal theming. I only plan to theme the station, queue, and plaza. The rest will be in natural looking terrian

Quite bummed about the spine. Oh well, Here's what the new one looks like

It'll be for high forces and for big top-pieces of gaps between supports (haven't placed them up here yet)

I think that spine looks pretty nice :D. You could always try layering the track with another track style to try and get an interesting spine. I could also help with 3ds' if you want.

Sup, here's a little update on the spine work. I'll be doing a lot with it and it is already coming out nicely :)

And another update, Afro85 is working on some 3D stuff for the ride, I won't be sharing that but I will say that it is coming along quite nicely :)

As usual thoughts, concerns, and any feedback is much appreciated

Looking good, but I think you should stop using photobucket.

I would agree, I can't see anything that you used photobucket with. The imgur ones came out just fine.

Got some pics to share with you beautiful people (Note it is still a work in progress)

Overview

Image

Looking up before entering (the transfer is no longer there)

Image

These canvases are awesome!

Image

PRESHOW!

Image

Choose wisely

Inside the current station

This ride will include onboard sound, countdown to launch, voices from other people other than me as ride op and as generic recorded onboard audio. There's a lot I and mr. Afro85 are working on and he is doing an AMAZING job, I am really glad to be working with him :)

As usual, comments, thoughts, concerns are always welcomed and appreciated
