freefallXL Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 (edited) It´s an old trackwork of mine. You will be attacked and hurt by violent bumbs and higly lateral g forces. The theming is also a very old 3ds-skill of mine. It´s at all dangerous to drive! So be carefull, if you dare! http://www.themeparkreview.com/game_exchange/track.php?id=1851 (it´s an nlpack.

djbrcace1234 Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 This was actually a very fun one to ride! Only issues I had were the loop's pacing. Seemed a tad slow on it, but the ride really did pack a punch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freefallXL Posted April 11, 2011 Author Share Posted April 11, 2011 Thank you It was made as beta, after these years of practice of NoLimits, i´m think about to rework the track and the whole project. So, any Comments are very welcome =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freefallXL Posted April 11, 2011 Author Share Posted April 11, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRe4SbvJ5Mk The video is only a preview. In the space environment you can´t see the supports (of NoLimits). But trust me, .. i have made a few ... if you do not trust me: Here is another picture. There are things around of this "room" where the coaster is running. I can make some pictures of this area, too (if needed). It´s only some *space* =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freefallXL Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 Thank you all for your comments! At this point i am collecting some ideas, how it can be better. I really want, at least at the end of the year, to have a final project out of it. The "BetaVersion" is still from 2007 and i think i´m a bit better now, to building coasters and 3ds. So even if updates don´t coming that fast, i´m still working on. Further comments, critic and something else are welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freefallXL Posted April 24, 2011 Author Share Posted April 24, 2011 I changed the title of this thread, because i think, it´s better to post my projects in only ONE collective thread. It don´t need to exist, 1oo Threads of my ideas and half-made NL tracks. Well,.. here is a new creation. I was visiting the "Hansa - Park" in germany a few days before and was flashed by the Gerstlauer Eurofighter "Der Fluch von Novgorod". So i decided to try, to build a layout. Also i was amazed, about the Gerstlauer project at Fuji-Q. So i tried to build that new "element", here a picture: Where the tunnels are,.. there will be later some buildings.. to telling the story. I do have a first POV, but please remember: This ride is still under construction. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVTVFQGPoc0 The coaster is not smoothed out. YET! I work on the variables and the speed. But maybe it´s worth to present you a first feeling for the ride and also a first impression. The story will follow... Comments are welcome, criticism and suggestions, too! "HAve FUN!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericm95 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 That eurofighter looks great so far. It's a tad bit pumpy in some areas, but you said it's still under construction. I also see you added the weird element from Fuji-Q's eurofighter. Great job so far and keep it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BkkMan13 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Holy trombones in a pogo-stick factory! (If you know this reference, good for you) very very nice, I love the detail in your rides!. To be honest I think Alien might look better if you changed the track to a Premier Rides LIM Coaster style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueerRudie Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 OK: Sixty points of -total- awesomenss for creating the 'funk-t-fied' Fugi-QUEUE element. Out-freakin-standing. Just out of curiosity: How did you 'bend' the element up to get the banking/track profile to match that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The coaster is very compact so it will take a time. I don´t use any tools, i like it hand-built. Holy trombones in a pogo-stick factory!

To be honest I think Alien might look better if you changed the track to a Premier Rides LIM Coaster style. Thank you! I like the reference ! To change the coaster style is a fabulous idea! Now, as you told, yeah,.. a Premier Rides LIM Coaster would really fit better. "Alien - The Ride" needs a lot of love. Thank you for your great idea. It´s all in one a longterm project. Built in 2007, and i think it will reborn in 2012. OK:Sixty points of -total- awesomenss for creating the 'funk-t-fied' Fugi-QUEUE element. Out-freakin-standing. Just out of curiosity: How did you 'bend' the element up to get the banking/track profile to match that? Thank you, too!!! ...at first it was a cobra-roll,.. and i searched for better layout ideas. Then i remembered of this freaky element. So i tried to bend the cobra-roll. I have now a clue how it COULD be work, especially the g-forces. Not easy at all to think into. To build an inverted tophat first and to "bend" only the "Top", to the side, is surly the simplest way. /o\ i hope i did answered your question right. If not, i´m sorry "Der Fluch von Uelzen - The Curse of Uelzen" will telling you the story of my Trip to the Hansa - Park. Not very serious, i promise to make it funny enough By the way, if you like details, i will upload another track today. The coaster called [freelancer] a ready-made project. It´s the coaster, where Climax will be in the summer. Climax is also nearly ready. Because the layout is close to "VanHelsingsFactory" in the Movie Park Germany, i will wait and drive the real coaster first. If you don´t know what Climax is: http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=57954&p=1010693&hilit=climax#p1010693 <- If you´re looking at the thread: Please forgive me the crazy opening. It was my first thread on TPR and it wasn´t a perfect start after all. So long, so good. This are my only projects, in which i will spend my time. And don´t worry,.. they all will be uploaded. Darn, didn´t know i have so much to say Thank you for the nice comments again!!! I hope it was at all understandable, my writing. Next stop will be the uploaded [freelancer]-project in the TPR exchange. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ EDIT: [freelancer] download: http://themeparkreview.com/game_exchange/track.php?id=1901 Don´t forget to watch "the good bye video" on youtube,... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xW8hWQt_tnM ...a friend of mine did made it, because [freelancer] will be replaced.

tiger01 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Thats amazing! Love it!!! I rode Spinball at Alton towers yesterday and this looks so much better.

Especially the speedy close the the ground bits. You've turned me into the little child I never was! Thank you so much Never forget the child in yourself. And never ever see it too serious. Life is a simulation and has NoLimits =D My projects aren´t perfect but comments like this makes me happy and give me a big smile on my face. Because i like it THIS way! I´m really glad, you like what you see and i hope it is giving some people some inspiration. If it is so,.. it´s more than i was expected. ___________________________ Update: "The Curse Of Uelzen" - byfreefallXL - *Version 4.0* ...still some track work to do, but here is a version which is a bit more smoothed out. Enjoy the ride! Ps.: Sorry about the support in the track ...but it is only a simple preview ;D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4liOOs49oTM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freefallXL Posted May 6, 2011 Author Share Posted May 6, 2011 Sorry for the doublepost,.. but i have a problem I did a "recreation" in the last 2 days: Superman / la Atracción de Acero (http://www.rcdb.com/1366.htm) I do have the original Length (3608' 11") and Speed (62.1 mph) EXACTLY in NL, but the height (164' 1") is lower than the original. If i work with the original height, the lift is too steep and the train too fast (or the complete track, too long). Now, my question: Is NL too fast or is the real coaster lower than 164' 1"? Here are some pictures: I would appreciate any help ThE pOv! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AWNbK6r9ZQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Of Spades Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Wow, that's a fantastic recreation, great job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJClarke0912 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 This was pretty good for a handbuilt. It had it's weird spots with banking and transitions, but this recreation was done quite well from what I could tell. It would have helped if you didn't put a fish-eye on the viewing angle, as that distorted a lot of the elements. If you are trying to go for a "realistic" approach with the fish-eye, I'd recommend not using it. NoLimits actually already has a slight fish-eye on the lowest FOV setting. Also, given that computer monitors (or YouTube video frames) are a limited viewing angle, increasing the FOV won't give the "broad, like real-life" viewing angle efficiently. Just leave it at the lowest FOV so that it looks like a recorded video. At least that's my recommendation. This ride looked pretty solid though!

Twister II Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 If you are still having problems with the speed, try messing around with the friction. I know there is an option in the game to turn on/off 'improved' friction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freefallXL Posted May 9, 2011 Author Share Posted May 9, 2011 I thank you a lot for this helpfull comments!!! Here the update of 2 Versions: NOTICE! I tried to use the *fish-eye* to *simulate* a pov - like the TPR - Onride. But i will make the upcoming videos, *without* (to give it a try). You can decide what´s better. Because you *must* watch it XD So i want to find out, how you like it Again, thank you for the comments! Now,.. the ProNs! *with the better friction* http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQ0lYn5yQDY *without http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xn1zS-eKM2w Here and there, are a lot work to do and the track needs still some love, it´s only an update.
