a little help

can i have a little help with the no limits coaster editer. i cant make flips or corkscrews. can anyone help me. i just joined a week ago so i dont know much about it but i think i got it except flips and corkscrews.

For custom inversions, I don't know. But if go go to File, Insert Element, there will be some inversions that come with the game.

To do it custom you can make a Z like shape with the track, you really only need to use 3 vertix's but some people use more. Then you highlight the section in the piece, switch to side viewand then raise the vertex, then add a 180 roll and with a bit of tweaking, bang. Otherwise ust do it as above

i saw downloading others i think i got it. any further needed help ill ask. thanx

You can go to www.coastercandy.com as well and download elements others have shared, just make sure to give credit where it is due when you post a track somewhere. To insert, click on the last vertice (blue dot) you have created, then click on File -> Insert Element in the editor. Select the element you want, adjust the size, etc, and click "ok". However, making your own is much more desired as it gives you practice as well on making elements!

how do u make ur own. since u made it in time. i wont kill u if u take long.

First you need to be sure you own the licensed copy. Then, I would begin with downloading other coasters and take a look at them in the editor. This may help you get a feel for "how to" design. Of course, you can always go to "help" in the editor (top toolbar) and get some tips etc. This is how I learned, and am still learning ... but the #1 way is to practice from what you pick up from others.

IMPORTANT SAFETY TIP: Do not try to post a track that is not yours ... it will immediately get discovered and you will be beaten about the head and ears ... violently!

how do u make elements that's wut i want to know!!!!!! TELL ME! or ill send an evil clown

Being a dork will get you no where clown-boy. Grrrrr
The Edge explained it perfectly about 7 posts above this one. Learn the basics first though ... and then start making elements.

Do you know how to bend the track or anything? make bunny hills, lift hills, drops, ect...? If not, then first learn the basics otherwise, it's just like making anything other. If I made an element I thought was smooth, I'd save it for future use. You should do the same. As for actually saying how to do it, it's rather hard to explain. Just look at other elements and insert them and then try to mimic it. That's my best advice.

i how do i get an element. all i want to know how to do is learn how to corkscrew,cobra roll,and flip. that's it!

I'm trying to help him on AIM. Hopefully it will work out, but it's really tricky to teach this stuff as you all know :-/.

Not to mention teaching it in words ... did you get it evil?

you can use the REL option if your track makes wierd twists, it's makes the node exactly on the same roll as the last node. For loops, go to top view, make a Z with nodes select the midde node and raise it in one of the side views. It's actually very easy. Also if you want to learn how to bend your track read first the manual, then it's not so difficult anymore! Also don't yell at us, because of that you have now allreqady a bad reputation on the site. Were not a help desk, we are just members of a fan site. We help you if we want, and if your acting like stupid and yell at us. We maybe don't even want to help you anymore! So please be nice and don't use us as a help desk, i've helped you a bit. but we can't help you more then done now allready....

edge how do u do a 180 roll. and gotenks sucks at teaching he didn't know the diference from a node and a beizer bar. he gave me a fricken headache.

Hmm, all you members here might want to know what's going on. I'm going to put the most important part of the conversation below (some words censored). Also, I took out a lot of it (some parts not marked by ...) because this was much longer at first.

I hope WeeWeeSlap lets me keep this here, and I hope this doesn't take too long to load for some of you.

evil, have you been using the relative roll button at all when working with inverted track?

And crap dude you have one bad attitude problem haha.

To be honest, I think its a lost cause with him haha. It sort of sounds like he meant the standard supports by the brown line

Yeah, that's exactly what I said near the end before he starting cursing at me.

Goten ... bless your heart man. I would have stopped at:

evildemon4384: o know i dont care about the physics

dude well he got me really frustrated. has anyone tried reading my name EVIL CLOWN. and besides i was practically falling a sleep dont blame me. he wouldn't get straight to the point and he kept getting things mixed up. he didn't tell me enough detail. can someone teach me how to do this simply without going off subject and someone who doesn't get things mixed up.

Dude, go to HELP in the editor and use the help tools. They are there for a reason and will certainly explain things as fast or as slow as you can read and comprehend them. Geesh ...

You are really starting to piss me off. YES, I DO blame you for asking for help, then not listening. I spent my FREE TIME trying to help you. I did not go off-topic, I explained everything to you so you would be able to build stuff correctly, and so nothing would be confusing. I did NOT get things mixed up. You are the one who thought there are 6 feet in a meter, and you were building your entire "track" out of supports. Please just give up already and either try to learn, or don't and realize that you are an idiot.
