The Official NoLimits/NL2 Help Thread

[da1daonly]

thanks but can you not do it by hand.

[jarmor]

you'll be there forever doing that

[Loefet]

^^ The only way to create "cat Walks" are by using the "woodmagic" autosupporter, there is no way to do it in any other way.

[haux]

Boy, I wish there was a threadall about getting help in NoLimits.

 

You have to be specific. Do you mean the wooden catwalks that automatically come up when you make supports by pushing Ctrl R?

[da1daonly]

Sorry I should have posted there. Yes I do mean wooden catwalks but is there a way do make them by hand.

[Loefet]

^ No.

 

Catwalks can only be made by the woodmagic.

 

But if you only want the catwalks, then just add a wooden supports on a section, and then remove everything but the cat-walks.

[AlmereStars]

there is a way, but you'd already died of natural causes (age) before you finish it. if you choose the "wooden beam" support and add a lot of supportnodes close to eachother and close to the track you should get a catwalk, but making it really takes up a lot of time, I suggest the woodmagic "shortcut"

Exactly. I'm merging this.

I just finished my first NL coaster!!!!! Only I can't figure out how to put LIMs on my LIM coaster. Can ya'll help me?

1. Make a segment that is transport

 

2. Give it the right settings (speed, acceleration)

 

3. In the track settings, change friction wheels into LIM

 

 

(Did you know, brakes and stations can also use LIM's)

Or just make a normal segment and press Ctrl+3+X. I prefer using the Ctrl commands... And those commands are:

Regular Track: Ctrl+1+X

Station Track: Ctrl+2+X

Transport Track: Ctrl+3+X

Lift Track: Ctrl+4+X

Brakes: Ctrl+5+X

On nolimits my screenshot dont show up in C:\Program Files\NoLimits Coasters v1.6\screenshots my windows is vista, does anyone know why its not showing up

[haydawg149]

Okay so I'm trying to create an impulse, and I want it to have a holding brake but it isn't happening... I've got the speed limit set to 30, cuz if it's any lower the train will just slide down the spike, and the deceleration set to 4 g's, with a 2 sec holding period. Can anyone tell me what's wrong? It just doesn't want to work, idk what's wrong.

 

Thanks in advance.

[jamesissoocool]

Post the file and i'll take a look.

Can/how do you launch a coaster backwards in NL?

[haydawg149]

there ya go.

[coasterlover420]

No Limits doesn't allow the train to stay stopped in complete stops for shuttle coasters. I don't know why this is, but with any shuttle, the train won't stay completely stopped for more than an instant, even if you set it for 4 or 5 seconds...

[jamesissoocool]

It will stop if its a continous circut

[DisconnectTheDots]

I wanted to add fog into my no limits coaster and I know (think) that you use a translucent texture for a 3D object, but I have not been able to find any or figure out how to make a translucent texture. If anyone has a translucent texture or knows a place I can find one, that would be great. Thank you.

How do you make a heartline roll and a zero G roll?

Ive been trying forever but i cant get it.

[DBru]

^To add to that, how do you make a good one WITHOUT using tools?

[edboxer]

I bought NL on Saturday and have been playing with it. I tried upgrading to 1.7, but the graphics on the coasters I had built went crazy, so I uninstalled 1.7 and reinstalled 1.6. Is this a common problem?

 

Also, I am building a woodie. I tried to color the tunnel black, but it keeps coming out white pine. Is there a trick to coloring wood?

 

Is there a database of coaster recreations?

[DBru]

^For the coaster recreations, your best bet is http://www.coastercrazy.com.

 

You have to be a member there to download anything, though...

[jpekari]

I was wondering, I just got the object creator yesterday, but when i go to open it it sais

"Run time error'53':

File not found:msvbvm50.dll"

 

I don't how to fix this.

[Force 310]

Downloading the .dll file from here worked for me.
