Can anyone please convert my Google sketch-up files into 3ds files for me? I do not have enough money to purchase sketch-up pro. PM if you can do so please.

Sorry if this has been answered before, but how do you get 3d's made in SketchUp into No Limits ?

I know corkscrew at CP has a sensor as the train is dispatched is a pedal is still down will cause an alarm and stop the train on the lift.

From a ride op stand point I hate Magnum's station. the giant pillars block the view of the train.

Most rides if they have been built before 2000. If the ride operator lifts off the dispatch button while the ride is dispatching, the train will stop advancing. But scary none the less, we would call this an operational at Cedar Point and the person at fault would go to crowd for the rest of the day and get a Step (a document showing what happened). I'm guessing this happens here too, since it is in the same chain. ^^^they must check the every harness in case it is malfunctioning since the last dispatch. ^they should but this wouldn't of happened if the just took the split second to look, and the order of clears was messed up if they dispatched while people were checking the train.

That's B&M's version of magnetic braking. It's been used before (Diamondback,and many others )

Windseeker is at the halfway mark. =D From Knott's Facebook http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?fbid=10150187254510876&set=a.104124665875.103406.10286130875&type=1&theater

It was great to meet you Thrillrider. And I'm glad you at least enjoyed MS a little bit this year

Introducing Drac =D i hope you enjoy http://www.themeparkreview.com/game_exchange/track.php?id=1941 yummy *supports done by Patrick McGarvey*

I'm a bit biased on this one but Mean Streak. ( the Queen of "Everyone loves to hate category".) Before being assigned to it last year i never was a fan, but it grew on me last year, and now I'm the ATL this summer for her

IMO Hersheypark has one of the better coaster collections in the country esp. compared to SFA and Dorney's collections. I do not see where they are short changing themselves if they go with Intamin or B&M. To me they are just adding another great coaster to an already spectacular line up. Also if they do go ahead with this layout I think it would be a great use of space.

Mine is a link to my track, I just deleted the url after the link popped up. It goes right to my Mean Streak 2.0 track. but i can see as to why you thought it was a link directly to the exchange.

lets see these are all at CP Maverick Top Thrill Mine Ride Skyhawk Thunder Canyon Mean Streak Magnum Corkscrew Wicked Twister Witches Wheel Monster It helps when you test ride in the morning Plus its a great way to wake up

]I was asked by a friend recently to come up with what I thought Rocky Mountain Coasters would do if they were to refurbish Mean Streak. So I started out by re profiling the lift to 171ft tall and about an 85 degree drop. If you want to find out more please download and post what you think about it (as of right now I don't have any video editing software so a pov is unavailable at the moment. unless someone wants to make one) *sorry for the quality of the pictures. My screenshot folder has never worked properly so cell phone photos will have to suffice* On to the photos. Complete layout 171ft at an 85 degree drop One of the 110 degree turns http://www.themeparkreview.com/game_exchange/track.php?id=1798 Enjoy

It used to be a maze for little kids but that has been since move to the old Pirate Ride building as a permanent maze. but during the winter months they board it up still using the same walls for the maze and use it as a off season maintenance building. They do the same for the picnic shelters up front, but use tin sheeting for the temporary walls.

^^ not to mention, one of the more famous coasters, The Crystal Beach Cyclone had steel supports.

2011 - Mean Streak Asst. Team Leader. I start May 7th . 4th year both in rides and at the park 2010 - Mean Streak / Corkscrew 2009 - Maverick 2008 - Thunder Canyon/ CC Mine ride/ Skyhawk I most likely will be back next summer but will be moving down to Tampa once I graduate college in Jan 2013 and hopefully get a job in Bush's Planning and Design dept.

^ 6 train op on Maverick is the most efficient with the way the computer is set up, with 5 trains the train that loads in the back of the station doesn't park till after the first train is almost unloaded and reloaded. after working it for a summer we saw what was best for the ride and anything less then 6 there was a lot of standing around.

I believe they said that all 5 were delivered at the same time when they released the photo/ video of the one being unloaded.

I'm guessing a hunt, IMO Where (sort of like Jurassic Park) escaped Dinosaurs are roaming around.
