zburns999 Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 Hey guys, haven't checked in here in a while, but I wanted to stop by to post my newest RCT2 design, an Arrow Dynamics custom looper called Ogopogo. Featuring a quick helix drop, two enormous vertical loops (much in the style of Tennessee Tornado), and a pair of back to back corkscrews high above the waters of "Lake Okanogan," below, Ogopogo is sure to deliver the thrills. Also featured on the Canadian themed map is Niagara (an Intamin drop tower), Bear Attack (a Zamperla Mixer), Algonquin (a Huss Top Spin), and Over the Falls (a motion simulator). Download by following this link: http://www.nedesigns.com/design/ogopogo/ Please note that the logo and park overview were made courtesy of the New Element release staff. Oh, and some additional pics... The park is completely peep friendly, too! The above pics were from earlier in the construction process. Enjoy! Please feel free to comment and criticize. Thanks guys.
mightbeawannabe Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 Please excuse my ignorance but what the heck does Ogopogo mean? I've seen several coasters named that now and don't get it. Afterthought: It looks very nice and must have taken A LOT of effort.
Goliath513 Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 ^Download the park and there is background info on that mentioned in the park write up. Great work Zack. I already posted my thoughts on NE, but "great work" just about sums up what I wrote in detail there.
CorkscrewFoley Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 I thought I was the only one who had a coaster named Ogopogo...but mine was always a shuttle...now what is ogopogo spelt backwards...
mightbeawannabe Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 I can't download it, as I only have RCT1 and 3. Could you just say it on the boards please?
Goliath513 Posted May 27, 2010 Posted May 27, 2010 ^ I guess I wasn't clear. There's a separate word document file included with the download that has all the info. You don't need RCT2 to view that.
dmaxsba2408 Posted May 27, 2010 Posted May 27, 2010 I really liked this, it was so nice to see an old Arrow type coaster win "Design". Congratulations My only complaint is in the area of the transfer track. The coaster hits the brakes so hard and in my opinion is traveling way to fast in that area even after the brake slam. Hope this inspires more giant loop Arrow coaster in parks down the road.
zburns999 Posted June 6, 2010 Author Posted June 6, 2010 Thanks for the replies guys. Much appreciated! Glad everyone enjoyed the ride, and yeah, I certainly hope it does inspire some good Arrow designs in the future. As I'm sure is made evident by my avatar, I'm really pretty fascinated by Arrow Dynamics, so I would be pumped to see more RCT players show Arrow some love haha. And dmaxsba, I suppose you are right about that transfer area, but to be honest, brutal pacing and transitions are really what I was aiming for here haha. Thanks again for the comments. Oh, and mightbeawannabe, just google it or check my readme. You'll find all you need to know Basically just a Canadian Loch Ness Monster, in short.
Bob! Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 I downloaded Ogopogo yesterday, and I really enjoyed it! The whole ride is amazing! Well I think you're gonna inspire me for making up some Arrow things in a near future ... Congratulations for your New Element Design!
djbrcace1234 Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 I'm still trying to learn hacks like those, but it is such a great design! So far all of the work I have seen from you is flawless. Everything you have built that I have seen is very realistic. Keep up the good work!
