Yes but remember mac users cant use the new track style, there is no mac 1.5 yet. Good idea though.

Yea, well I can't change that for you, I just want to allow the PC users to be able to play with the new update instead of having to work with an "old" trackstyle. You'll just have to use the corckscrew for now.

I have managed to find the time to lay down a decent layout, but I really did have to do it quickly because I had to do a design sheet on an A1 sized piece of paper for the next day. I really don't see when I am going to be able to find the time to smooth it or do the supports, I'm going to have to just do bits whenever I can......this track is gonna be so rushed [lol] anyway, must go, I have ICT coursework to do [:(]

All new 1.5 track styles are allowed as of now, it was a good suggestion, now everyone can mess around with the new update, besides that the LIM launched indeed makes a good trackstyle for this challenge.


Thanks. BTW, I just went here to ask that.

Edit: Might I request that the dome be redisigned to fit the grid? I'm having lots of trouble with it. There's like a constant "war" going on. One part of the track wants to be with teh grid, butt eh other part needs to fit the dome. So they aren't aligning very well, and its' quite annoying. Oh well, probably too late for this.

BTW, the concrete texture does not tile really well.

Can I make an exit path by lowering the land under a part of the dome? It won't affect the ride at all.

Damn... this allways happens... I totally forgot about this contest. I had my track finished up to the MCBR almost 4 weeks ago and then turned to some other stuff as there was so much time left. Unfortunatly I completely forgot about this and now I won't have enough time to finish.
Why do contests have to 4 weeks? I allways forget about those...
Oh well... Not the first time that happens to me and probably not the last time either.

To say it short: I'm out.

Buster.

Can I use the dome object on a coaster if I give credit? Who would I give it to?

Well, I'm sorry, but I won't get my coaster ready until tomorrow!
I've just been too busy the past few weeks.
The (boring [V]) track is finished already, but it wouldn't look very realistic without supports, would it?

I have to drop out. [flush]

Check your mail [:D].

My track is no where near as good as it could be, because I have had SO much work to do over this supposed "holiday", I havent had very much time for play or infact for anything other than work.......*sigh* Anyway, it was a god challenge and I did enjoy it, cool contest GFA, thanks [:)]

Mine should be in your mailbox now!

Sorry, but school really took some time and I forgot until about a week ago, so it's sub-par for me. But I'm glad I auctually got something done, for once.

Was a cool contest, by the way.

Wow, big turnout, huh? I guess the qualifier idea didnt exactly help, oh well, good luck to Gouldy and Unfortunate_Smiley!

Well that's a tad disapointing...

4 entries. 2 rushed. 1 late. Out of 16 qualifiers. Wow.

I think we should include s.kko's, cause at the time being this is pretty sad (well, it would still be pretty sad with only 4 tracks, but it would be less sad).

Ah well, good luck to the rest of you all!

I think that the qualification round was a good idea, theres only a few people that have entered a track because the rest have had to drop out due to unforeseen circumstances, it can't be helped. But still, I'm looking forward to the results, good luck to e-man and unfortunate smiley [:)]

I can't say much about the results at the moment, I am quite busy with some graphics orders, but there are only 4 entries which is great for me [lol]. So it shouldn't take much time to do. I'll try to get it done when I have some spare time, probably will be done around mid/end next week.
