Stoksy Posted July 6, 2009 Author Posted July 6, 2009 I just started trying out supporting the 4D coaster, IMO it looks alright, I know they need a lot more work, I'm just wondering how they look so far and how I can improve them. Supports. More supports.
BelgianGuy Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 First of all never forget the footers and mabye not overdo the lift supports and make the raven turn supports a little bit more connected
CoasterMaker96 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Great park. i'm not going to criticize the supports though. I think that doing that would ignore the designs of the rides. Can't wait to see what else you come up with.
Stoksy Posted July 9, 2009 Author Posted July 9, 2009 Well, I've spent about an hour custom supporting the 4D coaster, and I'm about half done. I also heard this on the news this evening... Stoks Co. have come under great criticism after rumours about the company demolishing Runestone. This is what Mr. Stoks had to say:We felt that the park could not afford to spend money on a roller coaster that would not be featuring in the park's Grand Opening. The workers and myself believed that possibly selling the roller coaster to another company would be the best bet. This gives me the idea that Stoks Co. could be going into debt. Even more supports.
Thelegendarymatthew Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 You know if you want help making better supports, just ask your freindly Matthew Coaster Co. They layout of the ride is un-realistic, but I love it! It is highly insane, and I would love to ride it!
Mochtroid Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 The supports look very cool, but i'd add some more crossbars to them. On the raven turn's very top supports, you could add crossbars to give headchoppers, and the lift supports need more crossbars. Looking great though, keep it up
Thelegendarymatthew Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 ^Yeah, thats probley whats missing, and the fact you have footers at the top, and in the middle of some supports
Stoksy Posted July 10, 2009 Author Posted July 10, 2009 ^ I think that's only on one of them, which I have fixed, the others look like there are footers, but they are on a different square. I have finished all the custom supporting on the 4D coaster (FINALLY). Here are some of the pics. NOTE: On one of them there are two that are unsupported, I have finished them now, just not at the time when I took the pic. The unfinished entrance. As well as supports, you can see to the right of your screen there are two supports from the original coaster. Even more supports. This concludes todays update. More supports. The unfinished entrance. As well as supports, you can see to the right of your screen there are two supports from the original coaster.
sfkk339 Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Man, The 4-D coaster's station is terrific! Awesome Job!
Stoksy Posted July 11, 2009 Author Posted July 11, 2009 ^All will be revealed themeparkman25 Stoks Co. are proud to present the unvealing of the park's second completed supported coaster (Shiva has ONE more custom support, I've just never got around to it, lazy I guess ). eliXair Type: 4D coaster Makers: S&S Arrow Colours: Dark Blue, Teal, Black supports Total 'air' time: 6.00 secs Drops: 10 Inversions: 5 Highest Drop: 36m/118ft Ride Length: 1252m/4108ft Ride Time: 122secs (2mins and 2 secs) NOTE: I have changed the makers to S&S Arrow.
themeparkman25 Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 ^Arrow made the first 4D coaster with X but then that same coaster put them under when SF sued them. Arrows assets were then bought by S&S in Utah to create S&S Arrow. Intamin also makes the 4D but it is not like the kind in RCT.
Mochtroid Posted July 11, 2009 Posted July 11, 2009 You still should put crossbars on supports, mostly on the ones under the lift hill.
Stoksy Posted July 13, 2009 Author Posted July 13, 2009 Started working on the park, after playing around with different building designs on an NE workbench. I have just installed a new restaurant called Hantei, it is a little japanese restaurant selling noodles and soybean milk. Please comment and criticise. Hantei restaurant, beautiful scenic gardens have been placed just in front of the restaurant. This has been here for a while...
