KPWoCkAxX Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 The brake before the airtime hills is to slow the ride down because it got too violent over those hills. It may need to be adjusted so that it dosen't brake as hard. The vrakes at the start are to give it that TTD feel. Waiting for the launch builds tension and besides it's better than launching right out of the station. To do it I put 3 block brakes set to the lowest speed and half way through the ride put another, that way when one train is halfway round the track another is launching.

Six Flags Enthuseast Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 ^I like it! I did the 3 brake thing when I made a dual station for that same type of coaster. I'll try that next time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six Flags Enthuseast Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 ^I think he's just working on renaming/theming that coaster. I think it'd take awhile to do that with the magnitude of the coaster and talent of KPWoCkAxX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPWoCkAxX Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 ^Aww Man! You make me feel so appreciated! Unless you mean that in a bad way..... But seriously, since the last update all I he done is finished the supports....... I'm finding it to be more and more difficult to post whilst work on a Composition for my Music GCSE, loads of Art coursework and a tonne of other coursework. I'm doing alright so far..... Â If I can I'll update tonight. If not then well, who knows when it will be. Thanks for keeping interest anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPWoCkAxX Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 Phase 2 Update 2 Â Well, Here it is! Â I have finally finished supporting the flyer and am beginning to theme it. I can't choose a colour scheme at the moment so I'll change that later. Â I had to make an adjustment to the turn over the station but it's all fixed now. As you can see all the supports are done Hooray! Â This is the Entrance building. The station will be split into two parts. Another view. Â Well, that's all for now I guess. Thanks for looking!

Kalepi_Konei Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Try a Mauve (dark purple or a light purple) kinda color for the track, and keep the supports the same. I think that'd go good with that barnhouse kinda twister theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BelgianGuy Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Really nice job on the coaster and the supports, I can't wait to see the complete area when it's finished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBru Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Oh wow...I LOVE it! Â Definitely the most creative flyer I have ever seen, and it looks just...amazing. (I'm liking the theme, as well.) Keep this park going; it has incredible potential! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Hmm....... Nice job! Oh, and I DID mean it in a good way. I think the queue could be a little bit longer (Ok, yes a tiny bit more, like 2 or 3 tiles) if you wanted shorter trains. Longer trains could have a bit more than that. Still, great job; can't wait to see what happens with the park next! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPWoCkAxX Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 Thanks for all the great comments guys! Six flags, I'm glad you meant it in a good way! Â I'm preparing the next update as we speak, I hope to post it tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPWoCkAxX Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 Phase Two Update Three  Just another small update to keep you guys interested. I've got some more finished and I am beginning to start work on the whole mining town.  To Do: - Landscape Flyer - Theme Flyer - Start to build mining town - Finish lighting up the whole park so far  Well, I said the update would be small. There's only two pictures to show you. I've basically just done more work on the whole entrance building and area.  I've constructed the Exit building and the exit path. I just need to add a bit more theming to the inside of the building and i'm done.  Another view.  By the way, I've actually changed the colour scheme to fit in with the theme more so I'll show you that in the next update.  That's all for now. Thanks, KP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BelgianGuy Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Can I ask you how you make your supports so cool because I combine steelworks and steel jungle1.2 and I don't even get close to that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steffen_Dk Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Really really nice theming, but I don't think that the track colour fits the abandoned mine style. In my mind it should be more brown-ish coloured. Â And BelgianGuy - as I see it, he's just using Steeljungle. It's rather hard to handle the first times you use it, but suddenly you realize how to use it correctly. That was what happened to me. Â Â Â EDIT: I now I read that you have had the same thought as me concerning the track colour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPWoCkAxX Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 Bodn't worry, the colour has been changed. Thanks for the positive comments guys. And yes, I only use Steel Jungle. And like I've said before it's tedious to start with but you look at pictures of rollercoaster and you see what's what and how to build them correctly. You'll get the hang of it, it just needs practise that's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPWoCkAxX Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 Update Four  Man, can you believe it's been over a week since I updated!  Well, not much has gone on really... I've been experimenting with different scenery to see what I can come up with.  I'm sorry but I don't really have time for much tonight, my Disc Drive's been playing up  The good news is I've changed the track colour on the flyer! It fits in better now I think. And Stallion got new trains! Also, the entrance to th park got connected with the new mining area, it's a long path that needs to be themed still but I'll finish it I promise!  Anyway, bring on the pictures!  Are those building foundations I see? No, of course not. It's a building base, foundations are dug into the ground.  I've done a little bit of landscaping and added some foliage on the flyer but it's nothing special.  And finally Stallion's new trains.  Sorry that's it for now. I'll try and get some more up tomorrow.  Thanks, KP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Stallion's new trains are pretty cool. The choice of color for the flying coaster is "interesting" (good-interesting, not bad-interesting), and it seems you used my suggestion for a longer queue. Just make sure you have enough trains to handle long lines! Keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBru Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Looking good! Â What did Stallion's trains used to look like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlmereStars Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 waaaay better track colours!!! Â the buildingbase looks kinda big, I'm looking forward to see it getting build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPWoCkAxX Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share Posted November 27, 2008 Thanks for the awesome replies guys.  Update Five  I'm keeping the ball moving with another update. Again not much to see, but it'll do.  Only two pictures tonight, sorry.  Well, the walls have gone up for that building, I've tried to make it look less blocky by giving it different height levels. I'm not sure I succeeded though.....  As you que you pass through this tunnel that goes under the second floor.  Sorry that's all for now. More Soon (I hope!) Thanks, KP.

Six Flags Enthuseast Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Hmm...... It does look a little blocky, but not bad. It is interesting (again) though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BelgianGuy Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I like the new colours of the flyer and I'm really looking forward to see the full section, maybe throw in a flat ride or 2 to fill some space other than just buildings. Keep on going!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPWoCkAxX Posted November 29, 2008 Author Share Posted November 29, 2008 Thanks for the replies. Don't worry though, I know the building's blocky but i'm working on it. Also, more flat rides will be added.  Update Six  I've only got pictures of the finished building really... It's not much I'm sorry but progress has been slow.  It's big..... Waaay big.  View from behind.  View from the front right.  And finally an overview shot.  Well like I said that's it..... Sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
