(((jakizle)))

I'll help you out. It may not be the best idea to start NL with a recreation. I find that it's best to just start with a coaster of your own creation.

If you want to chat with me about NL tips, I could contact you on AIM. Let me know if that would be something you'd want to do.

Oooooooooh so thats what "SKC" was

sirry i didnt expand SKC is Superman Krypton Coaster

suggestions for help.
I've noticed you get more feed back when you have people on your MSN or AIM buddy list when you send it to them from that. SO I reccommend you go that route until you get decent enough to get about 6 ratings on your rides, which is then a good time to start submitting your tracks, so that way you can get a wider range of critiques on your ride. But it is through people on your Messenging system where you learn the most.

oh, thanks...it was full of pumping and the drop was way to unsteep...

yeah but your supports were good and all the buildings and stuff

im stuck on a new coaster im building the first drop i realized im out of room is there a way i could move the entire coaster back to give me space?

i decided to not do anything with the superman coaster because i used it to learn some things its wicked horrible anyways!

screen of new ride : http://nldc.interfix.net/p1084

uhhh . . . work on your supports, and for the SKC work on supports, but on SKC are those custom elements or did you use the games???

Go to the toolbar at the top, press edit, then on the drop down menu you should be able to find the "select all" feature. It should be right at the bottom. That will select everything, now click on the ride, and drag it where you want it to be moved too. It will move your whole ride through the area, allowing you to place it in a different spot, giving more space to carry on the drop.

BTW, i wouldnt make supports until you've finished track work. That allows you to edit the track if needs be, without messing up previous work.

If you need any help, feel free to PM me. [:D] Just giv us a shout. [:D]

ok thats a good idea
im prolly going to delete the supports ive tried (first drop and 2 hill) and leave the trackwork cause it needs a little more smoothing
go up to my nolimits page (link above) cause im adding 2 more screens

i am realy new to no limits, i tried making a coaster but it was completley flat, it had no height at all lol

you have to change your view to like 3d so you can acctully make it go up

I edit the way the track is shaped for turns from the top view. Then switch to left, right, front, or back view to raise and lower the vertices.

No limits is one of those games that you have to truly take time to learn. But, to get you on your feet, a good thing that I like to do is use all views of the track. Check on your work by switching the views, and do it often.

I would do it about every time you add a vertex. I also check it in the 3d view when every vertex is added.
