RCT Discussion / The big guide

Thanks for the explanations guys! Now, I just need to know some simple things. Like...how do you do this? I'm talking about the glass and floating blocks.

What park is that?

Um yeah. Guys. What about making a Beast section of NE on the main site, not on the forums. Im sure that the NEgt would love to help. I think that it would be cool and add all the more to NE. Im up to help with the graphics. So yeah lets see what we can do. Ill run it by Iris.

ye that would be a great idea but i wouldn't be able to do it all alone so id need help from aeroglobe and WME etc if they wanted to.

Yeah, I'm up for it. Just tell me what to write, and I'll get it done ASAP.

Generally, I'm best at Beast hacks and I'm okay at DragonsIOA. I don't actually use Dragons, though, I use the SGM, since it seems to have most all of the same functions, but is much more stable.

But, yeah, I'll be able to help.

I could help out a lil. I'm not the best hacker in the world, but I can do all the basics, and I'm decent at figuring out how to duplicate hacks that other people have done. Don't know the first thing about winhack though...

I agree that a Beast section would be cool especially since it gets more use at this site than any other site.

But I'm still wondering if anyone can help me out with the disappearing track thing. I would sing your praises if you can show me how to do it. Anyone at all. You can e-mail me or pm me if you like.

EDIT: I don't know if a Winhack method would help me WME since I doubt I could figure it out. I tried winhack once a long time ago and I couldn't make anything work.

i guess i could do a "winhack explained" kind of thing... i think i´d like X to help me with it.. it wouldnt be beast tho...

Oh, about that glass window thing, how do I get it to a different height? I can only get it at base height....

Umm... "Stack Scenery". I explained that, but you had "already figured it out".



...

If there was going to be a Beast section on the main site, what kind of tutorials would be featured? There has to be basic stuff, but what about the advanced stuff?

I can think of:


[*]Speed Switches (Non-Spike Reverses, see "Pahoehoe Flow" in Horstmann Labs - Pufferfish)

[*]Halfpipes

[*]Train Splits (Soul Tear)

[*]Rally Ride, gravity coaster, etc.

[*]Stuff with the bumper cars

[*]What "Downwards Launch Mode" and "Upwards Launch Mode" really is.

Turtleman's new park....

you use set base height because it lets you put it at any hieght for the windows.

How do you bounce a coaster back up a track, such as in pufferfish's Horstmann Labritory.

OK, I think this is it, because I've tried it once (on accident) and it should be more successful than the impulse (you know what I mean).

1) Build the track.

2) Stop the track where you want it to bounce.

3) Build the track of the same coaster backwards along the track of where you wanted it to bounce. This means you have coaster track, and then track going exactly backwards from it.

4) Test. You won't know it works by simply highlighting the track in the construction window like a track merge, you actually have to go and test this.

I believe that's it, because I found it out trying to build a train split ride (which was abandoned).

Is it possible to have a coaster run sidways on the track? So you can have a "sideways" coaster?

Turtleman

From what I know of? No. There might be a WinHack way, but there is no other.

Great, plz do.

Thx
