Mack Launch Coaster - LiveWire! (5/9/15 TEASER!)

Coaster Hero wrote:

Really cool teaser! I loved the public warning sounds, nice touch. I also noticed you used Hexagon Force but slowed down and with a lower pitch! (I used that song a while back as onride music on one of my RCT3 coasters!)

Thanks! It actually started out as me playing around with some audio/video effects, and I just decided to roll with it and make it a teaser, haha. Hexagon Force is already such a cool song (it actually served as the original inspiration for LiveWire!), but I wanted something slower and more dramatic for this - turns out it sounds amazing at almost any pitch/speed! It was hard to pick one for this teaser, different ones all sound so cool

Everyone coming here, Teaser Time! Happy to see him updating pieces of info! Can't wait for anything that will happen in May as a (big) surprise!

All aboard the hype train

And my personal favorite:

In addition to the things you see in this teaser, we've got a new partnership in this project along with Blase and I! Though that information shall remain disclosed for now, just adding to the suspense

Now that school is starting to finish up I finally am able to get some major modeling done! Next up texturing, station, and then finally adding in last minute details!

I think i'd personally like to see a larger Mack launch coaster, so I would chose an 80 mph launch if it were up to me

Is this large enough for you? Not 80MPH, but eh, it's close.

Elucidator looks great too, awesome job! And glad you like this coaster too, it should finally be finished within a month!

"...brand new, state of the art vehicles..."

[TTD03]

Awesome work guys! And love the subtle ride advertising Goku!

^^ Looks like an improved version of "Storm Chase Vehicle" - I love this concept!

[mkingy]

That car looks fantastic haha Great work guys!

Riot vehicle? Also nice fence in the background.

More of a "custom storm chasing vehicle" (aka what the coaster trains would look like in real life). lol

The fence is actually from mkingy. It came in the original file RCT3rox sent me so I figured why not use it

Yeah, those fences were way back from when mkingy helped me out before I learned 3ds!

[mkingy]

Yep Happy to still see them in there! I should probably make them a public release I guess.

[Blase Rhine]

The storm is coming

Just gonna leave these here

That looks incredible! Nice work guys!

[Blase Rhine]

Thank you! Just wait, there is a ton more coming

[Paradox]

optimize it pls

[Metazoanhaddock]

I'm sure they will optimize it to the best of their ability. That being said, having a higher end computer will probably help too....

Sadly when I began work on this I didn't know how to optimize models. Being taught by several people recently, I went back and did the best I could by adding clippings and LOD's to almost every model. It added, for me, around 10 more fps by doing this.

A high end computer will definitely help out much more as Meta stated.

Looking awesome guys

I can't afford a higher end computer. Rip me.
