The NL2Cast: Episode 14 - Rocking with Zampano

Hey guys, I'm not sure how may of you are familiar with the NLCCast, so for those who don't know, it's a podcast that myself and a few other members have been trying to launch over the course of the past year, completing 6 episodes. We're hoping that'll change with this new update! Join us on Wednesday for a brand new cast.

As some of you may have heard by now, the NLCCast has grown into the NL2Cast. What does that mean? Well, we're now attempting to bring the entire NoLimits community together, from the NoLimits-Exchange to Shyguy's World to the Creators Lounge, and everywhere in between!
In addition to rebranding ourselves, we're also overhauling the podcast itself. For now, we'll no longer have a live, camera-centric podcast. Instead, we'll be recording an audio-only stream, which will be released (ideally) every Wednesday. I know this probably raises a number of concerns, but I think you should hold off on those until we can all see the finished product this Wendesday.

Pre-recording an audio-only stream will likely reduce a lot of the problems with recording live, along with making it easier for us to schedule.
Now for the best part, a quality boost! The main goal of this rebranding is to increase the overall quality of the content being produced for you guys, the community!

Feel free to drop any comments below, and we'll see you on Wednesday!
Thanks for reading!

Great move guys, and good to hear it's still going, I thought it had almost fizzled out! I look forward to your next episode.

Have seen an episode or two, it was enjoyable!

[Coasterkidmwm]

I'll check it out next time around.

Sounds interesting

Here it is! In our new format, the NL2Cast Episode 7! Joined by nSeven, we talk NL2, IAAPA, communities, and more! I personally think this is easily the best podcast we've recorded to date. Check it out!

Listening to it now! Just a piece of advice, maybe you could have like a table of contents? That way it would be easier to listen to and know what each podcast will be about.

^Wonderful idea, the podcast has been updated with timestamps on both YouTube and SoundCloud.

Speaking of which, we're on SoundCloud now!

Hey everyone, it's that time of week! Get ready for the NL2Cast Episode 8 tomorrow! We'll have Bjorn Hilding (6flagsmaniac) with us from previous episodes. Good news! We've upgraded our equipment. Both Mike (nSeven) and myself have purchased new microphones, and we're hoping you'll enjoy that quality boost. Check back here tomorrow for the release!

In the meantime, head over to the official NL2Cast Facebook group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/nlccast

This week's NL2 Cast is up! This week we talk with Bjorn Hilding to help us practice speaking with a 3rd member on the show, trying to get used to not interrupting each other and keeping things clean. You'll also notice quite a large bump in the quality of our voices, as Mike and I purchased new microphones.

Also, enjoy the timestamps we've included this week to skip around to your favorite parts.

Check it out here!



Don't forget, PLEASE keep the feedback coming, we love hearing what you guys think and what should be changed.

Absolutely loved this weeks podcast! I enjoyed hearing about the music opinions as well as the maintenance fees that also go into designing a ride.

Great work! I am looking forward to the next!

I'm glade you like is Blase!


Hey guys, I know many of you were expecting a full podcast today, and to be honest so were we. We did record this week, but after facing time constraints and technical difficulties I just wasn't able to edit in time for today. So, rather than give you all a sub-par podcast, I figure now is as good a time as any to give you our first "Rewind" cast. In our Rewind videos, we'll take delete conversations and other miscellaneous outtakes from previous podcasts, and compile them into a short little mini-episode. We plan on releasing these Rewind casts on days like today where a full podcast just wasn't able to happen for one reason or another.

Our main goal here is to keep giving you guys something new to listen to every week, and I hope we're able to continue that streak!

However, we have a bit of a Christmas present for you all next week, and I hope we can make it happen! In the meantime, enjoy our first NL2Cast Rewind!

Sure! We've got a list going of potential guests, we'll add you to it!

Hi everyone! First off, thanks for your understanding last week, it just wasn't possible to put out a whole cast given the circumstances. However, I told you we'd have a bit of a surprise for you all this week. This week, we've got Tom Zeliff (a.k.a ride_op), one of the main developers of NoLimits, on the show with us to talk about:

-The past, present, and future of NoLimits
-Roundup 100 prizes
-Nitpicking on NoLimits-Exchange

Join us tomorrow for the full episode!

It's that time of week again, the NL2Cast! As you all know by now, we've got Tom Zeliff (a.k.a. ride_op) on with us this week! Check it out:

They mentioned TogoFan!!

Hey everyone! It's Wednesday, and that means we've got a new episode for you guys. This week, Mike is sick, and technical difficulties prevented me from finding a replacement quick enough. So this week, I've got a guest alongside me that is able to provide a different perspective on theme parks, roller coasters, and everything that goes along with them. Enjoy!

The SoundCloud version will be released tomorrow, hopefully, alongside another announcement.

edit: Made youtube playable <3

Wednesday is already lingering in our future, and this week we'll be having Tom Zeliff and Kevin Stone on with us to discuss the winning entries for the 100th roundup!

In the meantime, don't forget to check out our Facebook group to get the latest updates on the podcast.

With only minutes to spare, Episode 11 has been uploaded before midnight PST. Our scheduled releases on Wednesday continue! Anyways, check it out! This is probably my favorite episode yet. It was great having most of the NoLimits development team on with us to talk about the Roundup 100 winners.

You guys really sound like your enjoying it, which makes it really listenable - good job!

Keep up the hard work!

Thanks mkingy, we try!

Hey everyone, this week on the NL2Cast we're joined by Elias (A113) to talk about his project, Citt?? Alta, and how to create a themed area in NL2. Everything from planning around people, the importance of kineticism in themed areas, making mechanically sound rides with elevated theming, and how to package that all up in a very multi-layered park.

See you all on Wednesday!

Just a quick update, I think there was something going on with YouTube yesterday. The podcast took roughly 12 hours to fully upload and process which...shouldn't have been the case. Either way, it's up now, and it's a great episode! A113 was an awesome guest and we got into some pretty interesting conversations! Check it out below.

Timestamps coming soon!

^ Wow this time, let me say props to all those providing such "fruitful" talks, which literally make me think that I should be an impressive NoLimits track designer someday. Then I will keep trying to please a lot of NoLimits fans by posting decent creations, though my version is an old "1.8" due to specification for a laptop. I was able to have mixed "positive" feelings after listening to their conversations.

The audio was superb!

[mkingy]

I enjoyed the wide variety of opinions and angles you managed to get - I think A113 certainly provided a good contrast of opinion in many cases and it provoked some good conversation.

Just an FYI for all those expecting an episode this week - from the facebook group:

Hey guys, no podcast this week, unfortunately. The streak has been broken. This week was my first week back at school, and that combined with work has kept me more than busy. On top of that, our planned guest decided they weren't interested....without telling us. Just a rough week in general. Hopefully we can get things back on track for next week!
