WIP!!!

When I load the coaster in the editor, it says that some objects can't be found. But there is only one .nlpack file in the Dev Center.


What objects are there? There should only be the rocks and the water objects. (maybe use the CK to see what's missing?)

Yeah but the rock objects won't appear in the editor or sim. I just realized that. I don't know what the problem is, but I'm sure I can fix it by myself.

That's weird... the track packager won't install anything but the water.

EDIT: I had to go through and install everything seperately instead of all at once. Weird, huh?

The size is 256x256 so I can't make it less pixelated, unless I can use a 512x512 texture. The one I got from Teorti was 256x256.

It's not the size that's limiting it, if you open the texture file you can see it. (without zooming in) Maybe you can use some blurring/line/curve tracing filters?

Sorry for the recent delays in getting the next turn up and ready to go guys. I injured myself at the gym and have been out of action for the last week.

Hyyyper, I sent you a private message about your turn.

Awwww, Please dont tell me what he put there has to stay. Im not bashing for the poor tech, but that just doesent fit on the ride at all. Its a HYPER.

Not only does that not fit, it's extremely dangerous. There is a reason there aren't inversions on hypers. There is very little holding you in. The lap restraints on B&M hypers may be enough but this would be just painful. I'm sorry but this really just isn't acceptable.

Not to come off as an ass, but who gives a poop? its a sim, meant for fun

you can edit it slightly, i guess, but keep it mostly the same(like make it lower, or something)

really this has to go IMO plus there are two rule violations only slightly but still they are violations. You hit 1.7 lateral and -1.7 vertical.

WTF, who did that one banking transit before the turn that leads into the inversion? whoever did that really needs to revise it, it's atrocious. Oh yeah, the radius of the turn is rather too large. (and it pumps alot too) As for the station, I regret not doing it on my turn, support scenery looks like crap, whether it was well shaped or not, and plus there's the wasted polygons.

Edit: No offense hyyyper, I just dislike supports used for stations and pathways, it just doesn't look good IMO. (but you did a good job without 3ds anyways)

I think we should vote on whether crash's element stays.

democracies are a b!tch, arent they?

well if we do that, then will have to redue everything until it is just the way YOU want it. believe it or not, this is a TEAM effort, and if members are arogant and want to do this and that to other people's work, well then you dont understand what a team is all about.

no offense attended ofcourse.

nah, what would be the point of having a ref then?
I'm reviewing the track now.

And for everyone, please send me private messages about concerns with the track in the future instead of voicing them in this thread. That way there are no chances for people to get upset and for fights and arguments to break out.

Unfortunatly I have to deny crash2108's turn. The g's were little high but within reason. The reason being is because more than 'one' element was built. Crash2108, if you would like a more in depth explanation, feel free to contact me.
I have also decided not to penalize crash2108 as it is partially my fault of not being online much during the last few days to try and correct the problem.

Ive got a question, can we support any part of the track, or does it have to be the part following the helix.
