Hey everyone! I've been a lurker here ever since NL2 came up and I just got my copy today after being incredibly inspired by everything that everyone is doing here.
Now to get started and learn all this since I haven't opened NL1 in about 5 years :/
I'm Tallon, if anyone goes by actual names here.
Hello learning curve!

Thanks all! Turbo, I feel rather honored you came to my little old thread after watching some of your videos and looking at your work!
And thanks everyone else for the warm welcomes!
cool5, I looked at your Jamp Up Land thread, and I have to say its quite impressive! looks like it could actually be built somewhere in Asia!

Thanks everyone! The forum is so inviting!

I do have a couple of questions:
Are B&M Inverted coasters heart lined anywhere other than zero-G rolls? followup, Is there a way to only heartline a SECTION of a coaster in the NL2 editor, while leaving the rest of the coaster as COR?
Looking at multiple angles of Montu's Immelman, and Alpengeist's Cobra Roll, it would seem they are not TRULY heartlined, but slightly lower than the center of rails; but obviously the zero-g rolls are perfectly heartlined...




ALSO....I have no clue what this points/bank thing is...?

The points bank is a place to put your points that you earn from posting in the forum, rating coasters, and other site related things so they cannot be stolen. If you wanted to steal points from another member, you may only steal 10% of what they have in their hand and it's not always successful

B&M inverts have a heartline of -1.1m which is consistent throughout the whole ride.

Just in case you need the link
points.php
If you haven't found it already, you can find the link to the points store by hovering over the "Forum" tab with your mouse, and then by clicking the "Points Store" button on the drop down menu.

As for what are the points and the points store for?
Well, I can't say anything yet, but just wait, something new is around the corner, just a bit more to wait.
