All the transitions are as arrow as possible.(or at least the best I can do.) Any, I spent all day on the supports for the lift hill and first drop.

I think the shaping is a bit weird, from the angle I see it, but looks pretty arrow to me!
The loop should be shaped a bit different though.

Its looking so much better!

Just an idea, I think maybe you should PM kyle about releasing you park to Premium Users before the actual release. So far we have 3 parks (Batman Arkham City, Six Flags Florida Adventure, and Project Manteesha) that have been released to the Premium Members. I think you should give it a go also!

I'll think about it but I'm nowhere near ready to even release it to a few people. There isn't even a single complete ride yet. lol

Those vertical loops look pretty damned good. That's excellent since the in-game smoother tends to make everything more circular and you do NOT want that on Arrow vertical loops lol.

Also I'm messing around with darker color schemes what do you think? Is the is better or should I go back to the Red/White.

Your Batwing element looks smooth unlike the typical one that seems a bit bumpy.

^^ From the entrance to the bottom. Looks much better than the same element in Google Photo Gallery. :D

I'll rework the bottom of the batwing but I just started working on supports.

Lift/Drop supports are finished!

I'm starting on the turn between the loops next but does anyone have any good pictures of arrow loop supports on the Seven Inversion Coasters? I'm not quite sure how they work, so I'm waiting for the end of those. Here's what I have so far on the turn, They're not done yet though.

Batwing looks awesome! Really liking that profile, definitely nailed that Arrow look with the first drop.^^ I do see where the transitions are a bit soft for a traditional Arrow coaster but yeah 2014. Why make the same mistakes when we know we can do better, it's not a recreation ^^ Looks awesome, pop a helix in for S rank o/

Arrow can do subtle transitions if they want to. What I never understood was how the suspended coaster tracks have all of this fluid banking and stuff everywhere and on their other rides they were like "lol no". Always a mystery to me.

Maybe it has nothing to with the design of the coaster, but have the track itself, I think perhaps the style of the track has some kind of manufacturing flaw that made those transitions necessary.
What are these for?

I always assumed that they used the Center of the rails to bank their suspended coasters instead of banking around one of the rails themselves. The suspended track is definitely smoother though, I wish they could have updated to the Tennesee Tornado style track earlier, they might still be around now.

Anyway, I finished the curve and Mid Course Supports

Next up is the loop supports!

Looks really good! I'm a fan of the darker colour scheme personally but that light blue is pretty cool also. Good job on the support work too!

I'm still not sure which I like better. Hows the one I have know?

With the loop supports finished all I need to support is the batwing. After that I'll start work on the Station and other stuff.
