Foxy Roxy Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 About 2 weeks ago, after an amazing trip to Six Flags Great Adventure, I had an idea to build at a recreation of the ride. Personally, Nitro was my favorite but that's already in the game so a recreation of that would be pointless. However, the idea fascinated me and I thought of trying it in RCT2. Instantly I thought of an LIM launched ride but I strongly dislike building them. I figured out that if I edited the ride stats through 8 Cars Per Train, I could make the lift any speed I wanted and decided to raise it up to 128 and build it to spec. It turned out kinda... bad. I got about a 4/3/4 rating so I decided to use my imagination. Unfortunately by this point my trainers started acting up so it isn't up to spec anymore. But here's an example. SCR32.BMP Kinda Na Results SCR28.BMP The "Launch Track" SCR29.BMP Top Hat SCR31.BMP Break Run Then I decided to have a little bit more fun with the idea. I started the same way as normal on a Floorless Type and made some creative initiatives. Egyptian Exodus, as I've dubbed it, has an Egyptian theme except I couldn't find a nice enough paint job so... sorry about that. (Oh I've also thought that the name could be potentially offense, there is no meeting behind it) SCR12.BMP Egyptian Exodus Results SCR13.BMP EE Top Hat SCR15.BMP EE Bowler Hat SCR16.BMP EE Freefall So after all that, I've decided to do more than the whole "Go fast, go up, go down, repeat ad naseum" and decided to be a little more creative. I decided to take an idea of real LIM rides like Poltergeist and The Joker's Jinx but make them a tad more tame. I'm not adverse to using inversions but I feel in a ride going as fast is it is in the tight space that I designed it, inversions would feel a tad shaky and be overly uncomfortable. SCR27.BMP The Ravager's Results SCR18.BMP Ravager In Action SCR19.BMP More Action SCR22.BMP The Crossovers Those are what I have right now. If any one would like to offer suggestions they'd be gratefully appreciated. The rides down below may/will need the use of a trainer, the chain lift speed must be changed to what I've specified and "No Height Limit". I've listed the ride type and the lift speed required. If the speed is not changed the rides will not function properly. The biggest downside to these rides are that the reliability of the rides disintegrates rather quickly, especially Egyptian Exodus, so keep an eye on it and make sure to get them inspected often.

dmaxsba2408 Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 That is quite the tangled mess of track you there on the Ravager. These types of tracks really are not my kind of things but they are fun to look at. Hope you scale it back a bit and try your hand at building something a little more realistic in size. Good luck with your future coasters and as always HAVE FUN, that's what it is all about after all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dotrobot Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 ^ It's not about fun D: It's about torturing yourself with rct2 to make it so good until you realize it's overdone and you explode and your guts hang on the celing fan. That's what it's about and yes if you don't realize i'm being sarcastic by now you have a mental problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
