question: why did they decide to re-do the entire ride? i'm talking to someone who says there was a structural failure in the ride somewhere (no accidents) so they closed it and re-did it. but he also says the ride was schedualed to be scrapped anyway and completely re-built. BUT, he says the layout and everything will be the same as the last version. now, either he's wrong, or what i've heard is wrong (i heard it's going to be completely different). so, why would disney demolish a good ride, just to pay tons of money to have it re-built? OR is it true that it's going to be completely different? can someone PLEASE clarify this![:D]

cuz if they didn't, an accident far worse than what happened to TM would have to SM. But, the new layout is different, from what I've heard. But it was a disaster waiting to happen, that I know for a fact, my uncle works for the company and they sometimes get like info on upcoming attractions and crap.

thats what i thought.. however, even though they found a reason to close it early, why were they going to change it to begin with?

something new I guess, to impress the coaster community? Impress the guest? Only GOd and the people who made the decisions know.

I noticed your fps was only 5 in the first pic. Looks like that 3ds work needs some optimization.
