Zero G Roll...

Everytime I make a zero-g roll in AHG it turns out not what I want it to.

Ex: A zero g roll I made in No Limits using AHG.





As you can tell, I color code what I put in AHG.

This is what I want:





See the difference? AHG is lifting the inversion section too high so it looks wierd shaped. Any suggestions on how I can fix that?

make the entrance peices before you want the flip pure red...then make the inversion ssection pure green....if thats does not work ....then make the filter higher!


do not make anything black....unless your ntrance seg. or exit. seg are turned which the should not be cause they shouyld be straight....filter about 800

I turned the inversion section pure green and the entrance and exit to the inversion pure red and set the filter to 800. But when I loaded the result in NL the inversion never inverted. Lol.

I have done that tutorial like 1000 times. It's great for making straight zero-g rolls. But not for making inclined zero-g rolls.

then increase speed input....the heartline generator calculates it as an overbanked turn and it needs to be re shaped lower and a little more curved....increase spead if needed

Make sure you have the correct heartline distance too. That could throw things off oddly.

I increased the speed. It did invert but it still had that odd lifted shape to it.

[hyyyper]

then lower it

The AHG rebuilds the track using the input track as the heartline for the new track -- thus radii will change. You need to compensate for this by making valleys slightly tighter than usual, and hillcrests slightly larger. Your other problem is that you banked the zero-g incorrectly. It should start banking sooner, so that the speed of the rotation increases, then decreases when the track unbanks.

Looks like your problem is that you hand heartlined it beforehand.

I didn't hand heartline it.

I could tell if you showed a picture of the input file.

or he just stole the element from somewhere.
