crispy Posted August 3, 2005 Author Share Posted August 3, 2005 yup, the official post starting the competition should be up VERY shortly    there are no design elements that are off limits, unless the rules forbid them, but this wooden contest has no rules forbidding them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Okay, so will you have more details on changing the excitement ratings for soaked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clinksalot Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Okay, so will you have more details on changing the excitement ratings for soaked? Â Yeah, all the details you'll need will be on the post when it is made. Which should be very soon now. Â Okay, I thought I'd have a go so this is my first proper attempt at this. Â This was made in Regular RCT3, and as I'm crap at naming coasters unless I'm theming too (the theming gives me ideas ) it's called Woodie of Death. (Which is better than what I WAS going to call it, Test ) Â I'm really happy with how the loop turned out, it has just enough speed to get round and leaves you looking towards the ground for a few seconds. The spiralling helixes turned out pretty good too I thought. Â Finished off with the traditional Water Splash and that's about it. There was still some space left to play with but I didn't want to fill every grid square for no reason. Â What does everyone think ? Â Just out of interest here are it's stats in both RCT3 and Soaked!: Â RCT3 Excitement: 7.09 Intensity: 7.90 Nausea: 4.59 Â Soaked! Excitement: 6.37 Intensity: 7.88 Nausea: 4.58 The "Woodie of Death" from a decent viewing angle. Aerial view of the "Woodie of Death" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clinksalot Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Great coaster Simon! Not as good as mine though! Only joking! Â I still think my suggestion of changing the colour to black and white and naming it "Helix the cat - The Ride" would have much better though!

kenshinmac Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Thought I would just share my attempts... I've got Soaked installed so needless to say hitting 7 is a little close to impossible... But hey I thought I would get some feedback anyway. BTW if you guys want me to post the track file just ask.

Â Very cool coaster, the figure to achieve for excitement in Soaked! is likely to be 6.3 so you are extremely close with what you have so far. Â It looks very crazy with lots and lots of banked intertwining drops. VERY COOL Â Love how different peoples coasters are looking ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenshinmac Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 You know the thing I don't get is the ride is 1:32 and the thing says it pulls 23 seconds of airtime... :shock: Â I just don't really see how that is possible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Well it's likely the messed up Soaked calculations, Frontier really seem to have messed them up. Â Hopefully they'll fix it in a patch soon-ish. I made an official bug post on their forums.

coasterdude5 Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I am so mad!! This coaster is so awesome and look what the ratings are! So close! Ugh!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Can it be above 7.00 for excitement and below 9.00 for intensity! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy Posted August 3, 2005 Author Share Posted August 3, 2005 LOL, sorry, no, but that is an AWESOME coaster   its all the steep drops, if theres anywhere to place brakes you might want to try that, but it just looks intense   awesome though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I know, I was just kidding. I'm working on it now. But the excitement will be raised since I have soaked, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy Posted August 3, 2005 Author Share Posted August 3, 2005 YOU DID THAT IN SOAKED AND GOT THAT HIGH AN EXCIMENT RATING!!!!   very nice  if you changed to articulating trains, it would be over 7 excitment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Ok, I'll do that, I'm also going to put in more brakes. I like having a challenge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clinksalot Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I know, I was just kidding. I'm working on it now. But the excitement will be raised since I have soaked, right? Â MAN, 6.99 in SOAKED!!!! that is incredible coasterdude, that would be in the High 7s in RCT3 definitely. Â It's a shame that the intensity is so high, I doubt you'll be able to get that down and keep the excitement up because of the Soaked calculation bug. You definitely should be able to beat the 6.3 excitement needed for Soaked! though with a lower intensity. Â REALLY cool looking coaster though Good Job!
