Eurofighter - - station update - -

[Dirk_Ermen]

Hello everyone, I've been creating the last few weeks on a eurofighter coaster. This will be different then other but on some spots still the same. [:)] I used the swarchkopf track for the eurofighter. Looks way better then a B&m sitdown or a hyper coaster type. I Kept the cool Barrelrolls on the ride but i replaced the looping with a simple vertical hill, that will give enough ejector and floater. I also created 2 total new rolls for a coaster. I don't have a name for both yet but one is rolling in a helix upside down, drop and another helix. The second is kinda a zero g roll only then from 45 degree to 0 degrees.

Here is an picture from the whole ride:( pic size: 1280-1024)

[V] my next ride was going to be called the eurofighter also . Because it contained an extremely high g inversion that tiwsted in a very VERY compact way that only a eurofighter could pull off and it was going to be called a "typhoon roll" (typhoon because that is the name of the eurofighter), looks a little like you got there first though hahaha. I'm still going ahead with my ride though, I'm going to start making it as soon as I get my new computer after christmas.

This looks cool though dirk [:)]

I believe that he was probably inspired by this which I started a few months ago

More madness to follow after that I have done there.
BTW I wasnt trying to hijack your topic Dirk PRoject looks good. Id like to see more of these rides myself.

[Dirk_Ermen]

to be true, i was really inspired by ur ride. [:)] I noticed that more people started to create an eurofighters so i though. I'll build one too[:)] And as you can see it comes out pretty neat allready [:)]

Don't forget my vil-svinet
i can't wait to ride all the eurofighters

[Dirk_Ermen]

just to tell to everyone, i will put the construction temporary on pauze because some contests i'm working on. I will tell when i start again with construction.

[Dirk_Ermen]

project running again[:)]
Here's a new picture: http://members.home.nl/ermen.dirk/eurofighter-1.jpg
I tried to create some realistic gerstlauer supports. What do you guys think?

ps. Need 2 testers. Please no newbies, i'd like to have a good discription from how you like the ride. Not only: Good ride, well done. Also i'd recommer to have someone on msn. Easier for if i don't understand it really...

looks pretty good Dirk, cant wait tll you upload it! I would say i would test it but i dont really have experience with a Gestlauer ride so would not be able to rate that well! sorry. I will do it if noone else wants to in the next couple of days, its just it would be more reliable if you had someone that had actually ridden a Eurofighter! lol.

The element that the car is on in your latest picture looks amazing, i have done something similar on a B&M floorless, but i never uploaded cos it wasnt smooth!

hey i will test
pm me and i will give you my email!

[Dirk_Ermen]

you got pm android [:D]

If you want another tester I'll volunteer

[Dirk_Ermen]

u got pm [:D]

New update: Check out my project page:

I created a nice smoke tunnel to the ride, and added a concrete floor. Because the concrete floor i had to add also own footers.

Give your opinions. [:)]

Nice tunnel. Good work!

[gouldy]

ahhhh, now you know how to do smoke tunnels dirk. I hope the tunnel on my track is even half as good as that one! Looks nice [;)]

[Dirk_Ermen]

gouldy, the tunnel for your track has to be covered with terrain [;)] and i need to play then first with anim8or more to get a good underground one.

[Dirk_Ermen]

After about 20 rides on the coaster i can finally tell some g force stats and i've finnaly thought about the element name of that roll down.

G stats:
Vert: +5.7 g
Vert: -1.8 g
Lats: 1.4 g
Acc: 1.7g

The name of that roll element down is:
Toxic Turn

Lol nice work i tryed a few of thems i like the tunnel and how the toxic turn looks i guess the tunnel will slow the fps down hahaha lol

[Dirk_Ermen]

well, actually the tunnel is still on a good fps. I don't really manage slowdowns...

if u need a tester ill gladly do it, since u did test my ride....

I thought you could get the g force stats by opening the track in the construction kit and going to the overview panel
