tiger01 Posted January 8, 2012 Posted January 8, 2012 ^ Thats an interesting concept! Just out of curiosity What gave you the feeling that B&M's should have larger spines? QR - Just because he showed us a pic of part of the coaster dosnt mean we can't be creative and make names for the rides. Here are some suggestings... Screaming Eagles Raging Raptors Pythurai (made up ) Raging lion Not that amazing I admit but can spark new ideas and inspiration.

OK: From my Masters Degree in Marketing Science, courtesy College of William and Mary: In order for you to properly market a product, no matter what it is, you need to know what the product does, how it will fit into the marketplace, and it's specific use. Without that, you are aiming blindly into sales- and possibly failing to sell your product right. In other words: If you don't know what the coaster does other than race, what's the point in naming it. Is it a twister? Does it duel? Does it have special effects? Is the ride family friendly? Is the ride in a themed area? Does this ride have any notable firsts? Will this ride be a record-setter? Is the layout of a particular shape or design? Will the ride have a specific niche in the marketplace? Could the ride be used for tie-ins to other marketing endeavours? Will the park be adding any particular theme to the ride itself BEYOND what the park has already? Is the ride part of a series? Could the ride be sold as a production model? Thus my statement before: I see a brake run, and a lift hill. I don't know of anything else of the ride, so coming up for a name for it beyond 'Racer' is just about impossible. If I had the answers TO those questions, I could come up with a more appropriate name, instead of random names that might not make sense for the project. R.D.

Also I got the feeling it should have it because a giga has some very high G's, and it looks cool!
buckaroo234 Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 (edited) So i was messing around trying to re-learn RCT2's legit physics vs RCT3's BS physics, and this happened. I don't know if its any good, but it serves my parks' needs as a capacity monster. SCR1.BMP I guess it's a Schwarzkopf inspired coaster SCR2.BMP SCR7.BMP Also played around with a shuttle loop. Edited January 9, 2012 by QueerRudie
QueerRudie Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 Looks very nice, Pup- but I'd make a few revisions to the Schwarzkopf triple-Looping: Make the helices larger in diameter- your riders will thank you for it later. A very nice start- and I'm looking forward to seeing your skills improve in the future!

Hopefully I fullfill your needs some more with this shot *EDIT* The name I'm using so far is Wolf Pack
QueerRudie Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 With a layout like that... you need something even more terrifying. The layout and 'base colors' are dark, combined with a bowl-style racing profile of both dueling and interacting rotary curves. The trains, with the numerous high-low elements looks like it's interacting with the terrain. Rapid direction changes, airtime hills and other profile variants makes me think of weather... and more precisely a tornado. Looking at the size of the ride, it's a pretty bulky monster, so a tornado of large scale, and most likely, destructive. I'd go for a name like: F5 or FJ5 (As in the most severe tornado on the scale) So the ride's outside/platform side sign would read, in bold letters (Color would be signal red, outline in black) F 5 The undersign (subtitle) would read "Maximum Destruction" (Color would be Warning Yellow, outline in black) R.D.
AlmereStars Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 @QueerRudie: F5 is cool! Got a lot of ideas with that.. Maybe I'll start up After Effects again! @coastercrazy 9:
jakecallan Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Very heavily Maverick inspired ride. I also edited the layout of my custom track coaster.
stereohead Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 ^ That looks amazing! I can't Wait to see all the details! ^^ I would Really like to see more of that mavErick-ish ride. This is the last tWo preview pics I will show before I stArt an actual thread. I don't want to abuse this one. This area of the park will be of a tropicaL theme. Who knows what else is coming? More surprises shall be in sTore. Transfer Track and Station Overview of the Area so Far

More surprises shall be in sTore. Those clues look really similar to the ones from Parc du Tarbes in La GARGOUILLE's viral campaign... Anyways, the ride looks interesting, as it really reminds me of California Screamin' by the structure and ride style. Can't wait to see what you've got!

I hope its not actually a problem though, I am not going to go as in depth as you did, I just wanted to give a small, quick hint at what else is coming.
Thelegendarymatthew Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I've kind of started a park. The plan is going through a time line, but I'm not doing a year by year basis (I'm kind of just placing things down, without worrying about dates, but at the same time keeping things in there era) Anyways, here is the "big coaster" of the park. I'm thinking Germany for the location of this park, as Sweden and Norway have kind of been used up by the last few parks I've done. Kanonen, is an out n back wooden coaster that has a lake in the "center" of it. There is nothing else done other than the track
Jerrykoala2112 Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Preview of the new Schwarzkopf looper I build called "Show Your Teeth" SCR26.BMP
GriffyTiffy Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Holy airtime! Looks like Alpina Bahn combined with a looper! I like!
QueerRudie Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Looks good, Jer- but I'd eliminate the straight section in the first drop- let it be more fluid overall. And why the name "Show Your Teeth?"
Jerrykoala2112 Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Looks good, Jer- but I'd eliminate the straight section in the first drop- let it be more fluid overall. And why the name "Show Your Teeth?" I originally had it without the straight section, as I prefer it like that too, but then the 2nd turnaround would overlap on the lift hill... So I had to add in that extra segment. Show Your Teeth is from a Lady Gaga song, called "Teeth" (Show Me Your Teeth)
griffonj2022 Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 ^Funny...I read that at started singing "show me your teeth" too. I really like the color choice there, it's a winner!
Jon Sabo Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 ^Love the detail work! Here is a photo of an Egyptian-theme park I've been currently working on. http://themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=61231 Project-Egypt
sureblah Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Still a work in progress. Anyone have any color scheme suggestions? Or name suggestions? Right now, all I can think of is "The Elements" and "Fjord-ish Coaster."
Thelegendarymatthew Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 ^It looks like there is a bit of extra braces there. Other than that, it looks good. I say keep the colors. I don't know serious I'm going to get into this project. I'm just kind of doing medicore stuff at the moment. It may or may not pick up, idk.
