BorisTF Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 I've got 1.6, but I don't know where the track smoother is or how to use it...I've got a heap of old coasters to fix up! Can anyone help? CTRL+G when you have a track node selected...just be warned it changes some segments of track quite a bit...
Vekoma Fan Boy Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 WTF!?! I stll didn't get the e-mail!
coasterdude5 Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 If you have an AOL account, CHECK IN YOUR SPAM FOLDER. It's almost a guarantee it will be in there.
steel Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 ^what makes you say that? I think it looks awesome, I cant wait to DL it! It's a little sucktastic. The new brakes and trains are cool, but there isn't that much to it. I'm in love with the new steelie tunnels, and the Hydra recreation is a godsend. The spinners are okay, but there aren't any recreations. The flyers are over-rated, IMO. Here's what you get: Custom B&M invert Doppel-Looping - Shwarzkopf lap bar only Flying Dutchman - Batwing recreation Custom B&M hyper (fps-eater) Custom Maurer-Sohne spinner Custom Gerstlauer bobsled Custom Gerstlauer spinner Hydra recreation Custom Vekoma flyer The water isn't showng up for me and I can't figure out the zoom feature. It's pretty much just the previous version with spinners, flyers, and brakes. I must admit, I did have fun turning Euro-Mir into a Maurer-Sohne spinner.
Vekoma Fan Boy Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 Hold on. The people who got the e-mail and update, did it say ANYTHING about beta-testing?
165loops Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 I have no idea, if I could help I would, I have to wait a few days until I get it, I got 1.55 in may so......... Only if I waited
Worm Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 Not to me! (its just so much fun turning normal coasters into spinners!)
weatherkid17 Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 I emailed the company and asked where my email was. This is what I got back: You will receive the updated version for free, because you bought after 06/01/2006. However, due to technical issues, we can send out the free updates earliest at the end of next week.
TheKlockster Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 I didn't get the email either - but I have the Mac version - which won't be out till Christmas.
CP_RULES Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 I can't figure out the zoom feature. If your talking about the new camera views that follow the train around, they're really cool and can be found by pressing "E" more than once in the sim.
coasterfan200692 Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 I have a question, it may have been answered before in the thread but I dident feel like reading all 22 pages to see. Do people who have the NL receive the update free of charge? Or do you get it but still have to pay for it? I dont know anything plase tell me.
WillMontu Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 If you purchased NL within the last few weeks, you get the upgrade for free. If you have had the full version for a while, you can get the upgrade for half-price. If you don't have a registered copy (or are one of those sad and pathetic losers who have an illegal copy), you need to pay full price $30. Check your email for more details.
coasterdude5 Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 I got it and I'm not dissapointed really, but I'm not sure if it was worth $15. Just didn't add as much as I thought it would. But that's just my opinion. The zoom feature is probably the best part, looks really professional.

vjgx Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 Well, I got NoLimits about 4 days ago, so I'm assuming that I should be getting the update email soon... Is it a problem if I have not yet gotten it?
Vekoma Fan Boy Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 ^They said due to technical issues they will send out the free versions sometime next week.
MARK Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 I'm having a ball with the Maurer Sohne Spinning coaster! It's great!
Worm Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 Here are a few pics of Kraken: Floorless Trains back Cool new blur effect Geeky pic with technical things at the bottom...
modelmaker Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 Small issue, is it really that bad with the frame rates?!?
BorisTF Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 Small issue, is it really that bad with the frame rates?!?NO, most people I've talked to (me also) have had a great framerate increase
