[NL] Askepios [Download Now Available! Pg. 2]


Recommended Posts

For my first new coaster in quite a while, I have decided to build a semi-compact wooden twister. I have the basic track layout finished, but will likely make a few changes and alterations before the final version is complete. I plan to add theming of some type, but I'm currently undecided as to what the theme will be.

 

Any comments, questions, or suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

What I like to call the figure-eight helix.

So here's a new update. The ride is close to completion, as I am keeping the scenery simple. I do not plan to add any 3DS objects, so the final product should be somewhat similar to this, but with supports.

 

Changes:

- Reshaped turn near end of ride into a Stengel-Dive-like element

- Smoothed certain track portions

- Added terrain and desert theme

- Reshaped end of ride from a simple turn into an s-curve/helix; also lowered final drop multiple feet in order to fit new terrain

- Reshaped both left-curving drops from/near lift hill

I hate Mars Volta but love this coaster. Arent they supposed to be an experimental/like electronikais/ screamo. A better experimental band is Circa Survive or Mujse is also a great experimenta band
The Mars Volta is neither electronica or screamo... They're a blend of lots of genres, and their singer is high-pitched but he doesn't scream.

 

If you've only heard a few songs, its not a good way to judge them; their stuff is so wide-ranged that you're bound to like something!

 

But overall, if I had to say, I'd call The Mars Volta a blend of Punk, Jazz, and Latin... and although Muse is good and I don't listen to Circa Survive, you can't compare them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...Anyway, glad to see you like the ride.

Sorry for taking so long -- I've been busy. But at last, the coaster is finished.

 

There are a few bumps and pumps here and there, and a few other problems that I couldn't really work out, but the ride is not intended to be totally realistic either.

 

Best ridden in the Sunset environment, with Improved Friction (NL 1.6)

 

Enjoy!

That is one of the most insane NL coasters I have ever ridden!

 

The pacing is unbeleivable!

I would have use the continuous roll at the top of the first and second hills, it would flow alot better through the transition.

 

A few minior pumps, but that is to be expeced with a track as aggressive and twisty as this.

 

9/10

Glad to see you like it... But I don't think it would actually kill people.

 

Serious injury for anyone not in great shape? Maybe... but maybe I'm just crazy for thinking that it's really not that out of control (especially not compared to my old wooden monstrosity, The Flying Dutchman (it's on here somewhere)).

 

Either way, I think I've succeeded... my goal was to create something over-the-top, and here it is!
