Steel Phantom recreation [NL]

[xChris125x]

Here is my Steel Phantom recreation, by far my best and most involved project to date. Below are some picture and a video. Please let me know what you think. Enjoy!

 

A download which will include the correct car txtures is in the works.

Wow, that's pretty good. However, some minor hiccups:

 

- The first drop's beginning came too early and was a little tight.

- The second drop's apex seemed a little dragged, and the angle was a little shy (but I could be wrong).

- The corkscrews on the batwing weren't rounded (like Arrow) and didn't feature a "linear" roll-to-time ratio (like Arrow).

- Some parts were a little too jerky, some parts just barely didn't have that snap (too smooth, due to beziers).

 

Honestly, these are very picky (especially the last two). You did very nice in recreating the Phantom, and really getting it's feel. I could really see parts in it that you recreated that I saw in many witnessed POV's, such as the bottom of the first drop, snappiness of the hill coming into the loop, etc.

 

Basically put, just shy of perfect. But of course, in NoLimits, it's insanely hard to get perfect (because it's practically impossible). Great job.

Thanks! Yeah, I had been tweaking the track for so long that at some point I just had to consider it completed. I know it's not exact, but when the POV is run parallel with the real POV, it's very very similar and that had me satisfied.

 

I'm having trouble saving the file with the car textures. I'm trying to get it up as soon as I can.

Oh wow. Incredible. I've never rode the coaster before but compared to POV's I've seen this is flawless. I want a download. Really badly. Even without the car textures. Please.
