News / Chamonix & X-Men: 2 New NE Designs

Thanks for all the feedback for my design.

I am very pleased with the outcome, and I really enjoyed building it, and that's what matters.

These designs were both incredible.






In that they were so terrible.

Marshy, it's just so overdone without any real meaning, which is what bothers me. I enjoyed the coaster a little, but not a whole lot.

Kumba and JKay built a very neat coaster, but that was one of the shittiest theming jobs I've ever seen.

fake "block sections"

Why stop at fake block sections and how about people actually make real ones? Sure the block brake in rct isn't adjustable but mcbrs do have to slow the train down a little, it was explained very well on John Wardleys web page.

Corky, if you make all your corkscrews and loops at the same speed, there's no variation amoung your coasters. Different manufactureres have different pacings for the same elements; intamin corkscrews are taken on average much faster than B&M ones which in turn are faster than vekoma's which are faster than Arrows, all on the average coaster from these manufacturers. Theres just so much more to realism than just copying somebody like sa's or aero's styles that people these days don't see, when I see true realism such as beagle's park in the ad district be criticized at the same time.

that is all.

I wasn't saying your corkscrews and your loops should be at the same speed. I was just saying you don't necessarily need to have your inversions speed up as the train goes through the layout. But I use certain target speeds for different elements, and that's how I design my coasters. But the target speed is different for a different inversion type.
