TPR's Game Exchange "Track of the Week" Contest!

[the ghost]

Good game, Wheelchair! I'll be back next round... hopefully with more submissions as this was my first submission to the game exchange. This is fun though... and log rides aren't really my thing, so hopefully next time its more in my element. A dark ride contest would be fun IMO.

Honestly, while participation was down a bit this week, the entries were all top notch. Great stuff guys!

Sweetness.

[the ghost]

Awesome... I've already got a concept for this... let's see if I can pull it off.

 

BTW the rides name/concept is Jabberwocky

[Wheelchaircoaster]

I like the sound of this! Cool! A coaster, a B&M TOO! I am in this one too. I really am so happy I won! YAY! I am so excited for my Club TPR Membership! lol

[tdub96]

I'll be in too. I'll try to find some free time. Gotta help my buddies out with the contest entry though too.

[Six Flags Enthuseast]

Congrats to Wheelchaircoaster for winning! I was impressed with all of the entries I saw. I just wish I would've been able to participate as well, but thanks to my computer, I probably won't be able to for a while.

[xDooZx]

Congratiulations Wheelchaircoaster.

 

really deserved this win even if I wished ghost's one would. great work!

my hypers aren't that cool but well im going to try...

[VegasCoaster]

Congrats! I started a submission on Saturday but couldn't get around to finishing all the theming so I didn't wind up submitting it. Probably give this one a try though.

[the ghost]

Jabberwocky's dead, but my new coaster rules!

[Wheelchaircoaster]

BRONCO!

 

Fly through the wilderness on this wild & crazy bucking bronco. Speed through and race away from the poachers and while dodging, twisting and turning rocks,trees and cliffs. Ya'll see what I mean when you ride this here sucker.

Hey guys,

This is going to be my entry into this weeks contest. I am surprised to be the first one entering. The due date seems to be closing in! Everyone should hurry!

 

So, I think this coaster has super amazing airtime! Please download and tell me what you think.

 

Here are some more pictures! I'd say it's more like Goliath at La Ronde so it's not over 200ft but is still considered B&M Hyper in my eyes.

ENJOY! THAT AIRTIME!

THANKS!

[VegasCoaster]

Here's my submission for this week: Quetzalcoatl

 

No theming aside from the station, but its the coaster that counts, right? Take a flight on this mythical winged creature if you dare.

[QueerRudie]

I just posted my entry for this week, titled "Twisty!". I wasn't too concerned about the ride being a realistic B&M per se, but just focusing on building something compact with good pacing and a sensible overall ride storyline. In terms of speed, I wanted something more along the lines of Timber Falls' Avalanche but I did allow for a place where the train slows down enough for the riders to catch their breaths, and the ride duration isn't too long for the speed to get boring for the riders.

 

Here's the link, for some reason the file's extension has been removed so in order for it to work, please edit the name to add on ".sv6" to the end:

[Wheelchaircoaster]

These all look amazing! Good work everyone!

[VegasCoaster]

I can't open Bronco due to some missing object ID, but it looks nice. Any custom scenery or anything else that might be causing that?

[grrt]

These tracks all look great! I wish my RCT2 weren't so rusty or I'd blow you all out of the water. Oh well, I guess I'll have to wait for another RCT3 track...

[SoCalCoasters]

RUBY

 

What I consider to be the "Great Bear" of Hyper Coasters, Ruby combines the classic out-n-back feeling of a traditional B&M with the out-of-control sensation of an Intamin Hyper.

 

Oh and -2Gs Of Airtime!

Hehe, good stuff phatage

It's because you need custom ride cso. Download Chaotic, and Ripsaw from amazing earl: ae.rctspace.com/List-Frames.htm

 

It's in the real rides section. Sorry about that. lol! I'm evil for forgetting!

[accelerate]

Awesome... I've already got a concept for this... let's see if I can pull it off.

 

BTW the rides name/concept is Jabberwocky

 

This is why I didn't turn in an old coaster I made, "Jabberwock."

 

So here it is.

I finally completed my entry.

 

My entry for this contest is called the Giant. Inspired by the coaster of the same name included in No Limits, the Giant is a B&M Hyper coaster with intense positive, negative, and lateral forces, several large hills, and a 5,840 ft long layout. It has 3 trains for efficient operation and a yellow and red paint scheme (yellow track, red rails and supports). Are you ready to conquer the Giant?

 

Here's the link to the download, and I posted a link on Facebook. The download comes with the transfer house, station, queue, exit path, catwalks, and entrance plaza.

First of all: Sorry for the late entry, but i was stucked in my "Abitur" Examinations about the whole week. I hope there will be some votes at least.

The Final battle has begun.

Good vs. Evil

Coke vs. Pepsi

Atari vs. Amiga

Pirates vs. Ninjas

Black vs. White

or just

The trance Side vs. The Other Side!

 

This weeks entry of mine is called "Diversity", besides the rides themselfes are named "The Trance Side" and "The Other Side".

How you might have concluded, you are dealing with two duelling Hypercoasters, underlined by the strict determination of black and white.

 

Here goes a first screenshot for getting a little impression of what I'm talking about:

 

Overview.bmp

An Overview.

 

As you can see, the tracks are very tight fitting to each other.

 

When I finished designing the coaster itself, I thought it would be cool to widen the theming of black and white to the whole entrance/queueing area:

 

Park Entrance.BMP

The main entrance building along with a few shops and relaxing locations.

 

Because of stupid and/or tired peeps i had to add a few Information Kiosks for selling out some maps.... stupidos!

 

Infoarea and Zengarden.BMP

The information area and a shot of the garden.

 

Sooo, but now we'll take a closer look at the coasters, first, the main entrance of the coaster complex, where visitors have to deal with a huge descision: black or white T-Shirt? O: Also on the shot are the last turns and the brakes area.

 

Main Entrance With Trains.bmp

Wohoo, two trains at once!

 

After splitting here, the visitors follow a path along the coaster area and head up to the station itself:

 

Entrance With Departing Trains.bmp

And again!

 

Sync is just given if both trains are nearly filled with the same number of riders, nice balnced here, when the trains passing the air time hill:

 

Trains Taking Zero G Hill.bmp

I guess it's harder to get a shot with just a single train!

 

I wasn't about to get inspired or even rebuild a real B&M, and you may forgive that it's only 175 feet tall.

 

Here goes the game exchange link, no custom scenery nor any addons needed:

Have fun and please take the little time left to rate those ones.
