The Exodus- Premier/Giovanola Hyper

At this point, i have no projects that I have any motivation to do except this one. This is my take on a Premier Hyper coaster. For their ride premier sub-contracted Giovanola to help produce the ride much like intamin used to. This is basically their batsturd child.

Teasers-


(See below)

Those trains look great on Box-Spined track. The rails look very nice too. Can't wait to see more. ;)

Layout

Thanks i agree^

Yay this looks original. The good kind of original too.

Way to copy A113's High Noon with the track/train style though. [:)] But nobody has "officially" done it yet, and most of all it looks really cool.

I'm fairly certain that I've now contracted eye cancer.

^yeah idk how that happened

This looks great. The box spine detail however seems a bit too much for Giovanola but it adds some complexity too the track. Good luck on the supports. ;)

Looks very unique! Those cars on the box spine track are quite awesome.

Looks really good, the spine you've created looks really nice. And the layout looks well thought out.

3ds station/color scheme concept. Im thinking I like "The Exodus" or just "Exodus" as a name.

Station?

Supporting has officially begun! more to come... Any criticism or comments are appreciated as always.

What to say if not keep going on? Seriously Kyle, each projects you have are original and very well executed! I love following their development. =)

Ok I refreshed the page and it posted my message again.... I'm cursed on this board, sorry guys. [xx(]

Wow thanks! Yeah im planning on actually finishing this one too which should be a bonus.

Anyways.. Im conflicted as to what looks better:




What do you think?

Gray rails, for sure. Also, I understand the inspiration, but I thought this was a premier hyper? I think the Giovanola supports on the lift need changing. I would say come up with a new style for it, but that's me.

Station is beautiful though.

I think they are here to stay.. Think about magnum. Arrow designed, supports made by B&M. My ride is designed by premier, subcontracted by giovanola. Plus, premier has a very similar supporting style on their larger structures. It was also the most convenient way to support the lift because there are alot of cross overs, which just so happen to fit perfectly into the box structure but not any other. Thanks for the input though. However, If it really becomes a big problem that people complain about, I will change it. Thanks for the input though!

Gray rails for sure but I'd either change the supports (I'd use something similar to the supports on Chillers spikes) or change the colors because right now it looks too much like Goliath. Also I think that your station doesn't really match the name (which should just be 'Exodus') and theme, it looks like a more Spanish architecture style as opposed to a more biblical look. Those few thing aside it looks like a great layout with some cool elements.

Exodus is not referring to the bible. It is referring the actual word that means "journey". I Can always change the station texture a bit though. Here are some revised supports.

Everything you said is all well and good, but I thought I'd share my opinion [:)]

But where did you hear that? I can't find anything online about it. Plus, did B&M even exist in '89?

Edit: Also I liked the 'X' boxes better than the 'A' boxes.
Edit again: And I didn't even notice that you mentioned the subcontracting in your very first post oops.

I liked the 'X' boxes better, too. But the color is better, I don't want to see the same color-scheme than Goliath/Titan.

^I changed the a structures so they are thinner and less bulky, and now the supports look much more elegant, while retaining the premier style. Support work is flying-

New Flanged Supports-



Most recent progress and colors-

So I finished the station but I cannot get the double sided textures to work... The only way can export them is as geometry and that kills the fps.

JK fixed.



Also Is that color scheme gonna stay?

I think the shade of orange is a bit generic to Giovanola. Maybe somewhat lighter?

Otherwise... I am dumbfounded.

Thats it for tonite though thanks for the support! Ill play with it first thing in the morning.. Before i head off to sfne to hit up goliath
