Dave Id Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 I think that RMC stole an element design for the outwards wave turn from some random NL2 designer out there, and didn't give credit! I can't remember who it was, but I'll post a link if I find out where the proof is It is quite an honor to have your design be used by such a great firm, but he should have gotten paid at least a small amount for it I guarantee you more than one person used that element way before NL2. Wait...you're saying he should have gotten credit for taking two of their original elements...that had never been used before, the outside banked turn (Outlaw Run) and the wave turn (Outlaw Run)...combined them (on a game)...and RMC should pay him? The other side of that argument would be that his design was derivative of an original RMC design in the first place. Just remember, for every design that we see from RMC, whether it be virtual or built, they probably have tens or hundreds in the computer and filed away that didn't get used. (But hopefully will some day)
PixelRush Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Is that me you're talking about? I posted a similar turn on their Facebook and THEY LIKED IT (literally). Coicidence? I think NOT. Yeah, I thought it was you but I couldn't remember where I'd seen that! BTW I'm Zergei on NL2 Forum
BDG Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 The steel towers have arrived, made by Vekoma...
coaster1000 Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 The steel towers have arrived, made by Vekoma... Oh man, even the lift will be rough.
Guy T. Koepp Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 I am very much enjoying these video blogs about the construction. This coaster is going to be amazeballs when it is done.
PVA62 Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 I am very much enjoying these video blogs about the construction. This coaster is going to be amazeballs when it is done. Seems like they are using a different approach to building this coaster. Getting most of the bents in place before laying any track. Seems like the Dollywood RMC did a combo of both at the same time. Did Outlaw Run or Goliath get their framework done then place track? Or maybe I just missed an episode where they did lay some track here on Wildfire. Anyways this coaster, as Guy said, will be AMAZEBALLS!

You must remember that when the construction stopped because they lost the permit all of the production of the rails stopped in the US as well. Getting things restarted takes a bit of time as there are other projects RMC can't ignore. That is most likely the reason for the lack of rails so far.

DoinItForTheFame Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 ^well that was a d tailed update! I mean, it does at least show the start of the lift hill supports. Which appears to be a truss style support structure after all.
RCT3Bross Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 It's really odd to think that an American manufactured ride in Sweden has a connection to the small land known as the Netherlands. Great video's I just love how they keep us up to date like this.
rcjp Posted March 11, 2016 Posted March 11, 2016 Interesting... I had no idea what was the weight of a lift motor and chain. Pretty impressive
Arn'O Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 This coaster is looking just too amazing! Hopefully we can get a RMC someday. I think i have to take a ship and go to Kolmården this summer....
deguy123 Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 YESSSSS!!! Can't wait to ride this in September, planned a trip to Copenhagen & Stockholm but worked this in between cities!
viking86 Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Really excited to see track being put in place! So excited to have an RMC being built in my neighbour country!
Arn'O Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Really excited to see track being put in place! So excited to have an RMC being built in my neighbour country! SAME!
