The White Dragon- NL2 Hyper Coaster

[Blase Rhine]

Hey everyone I figured I might as well post a thread for this ride eventually so why not now? Some of you may have seen this in the Skype group chat already so bare with me.

*Before asking, yes, this coaster was very much inspired to go along with bob_3_ (RL Rides) The Red Dragon Hyper Coaster. Think of it like The Beast and Son of Beast. A huge thank you to bob_3_ (RL Rides) for making such an amazing coaster one so much that inspired me to begin working on this project.

I introduce to you The White Dragon, a 240 foot hyper coaster that features 5 airtime hills, a Intimidator-like turn, an overbank turnaround, and overbank into a 4 g helix, and some high speed turns.

Story (based on bob_3_'s The Red Dragon): Many years later after the first event between The Red and White Dragons, A young boy is strolling through a cave and notices a huge stone coffin like formation, Intrigued by this he walks up to it and reads the inscription carved in the rock, Bude op???? st??pa??, He will Rise Again. Not knowing what just has happened he runs home in the village. The walls begin to shake and The White Dragon is ressurected from the dead. The White Dragon storms out of the cave onto the nearby town, He begins burning down the village in a search to find his killer, The Red Dragon. The Villagers run to the castle and speak with the king about the dreadful White Dragon. The King sends out a message to all the peasants. For those who conquer The White Dragon will gain the riches of a lifetime. The brave villagers set out to conquer the beast and all have failed. Now its your turn, can you conquer the White Dragon and gain the riches or will you die trying?


Work began in early May as I began brainstorming ideas for my next project. Looking through the exchange and old forum threads I found bob_3_'s The Red Dragon. My mind started wondering what if there was a White Dragon track!? I knew I wanted the track to be a Hyper Coaster from the beginning so with that in mind I began drawing out tons and tons of layouts until picking one that was most realistic and thrilling.

This project will feature custom music, textures, and 3d models.

Same

does the top-spin ride actually move and is it rideable?

Haha! Love this! Very humbling to know you've been inspired.

I'd love to see more of the layout.

Maybe we should release both my re-master and this on the same day...

Yep it moves and you are able to control it. There is a control panel with how to use it next to it! So far it is not rideable...

If only we could have this ride over here!

is there a set release date yet?

[Coasterkidmwm]

Looks like something that would exist at a Busch Gardens park. Very nice work so far.

Yeah at Busch Gardens "Europe"! This could be a dueling B&M with Alpengeist - European Style, as well as Shambhala with Dragon Khan - Oriental Style!

I am very sad to inform you all that the file got corrupted. I was planning a release for today, however I don't see how that is possible. Luckily I had a backup with the coaster just no scenery... I am doing my best to add everything back and hoping I will be able to release this soon! Thank you all for the feedback! It is much help!

Update: Thanks to Tallon, I have found the old file so everything is back on track!

Glad to hear that!

^ Sad to hear! Esspecially as The Red Dragon will be released this evening, we could've had a proper battle on our hands! Keep us updated.

[mkingy]

Fantastic to hear you've recovered the track!

@bob_3_: Seems like you're getting me wrong. I was happy to see the file recovery!

Ah I missed the edit at the bottom, mustve scanned through. Excited to see this =).

This is why I dropbox tracks after a certain point.
