V2-dude Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 We all know about Vekoma's three woodies; Thunder Coaster, Loup-Garou, and Robin Hood. We all know they are famous for being smooth, comfortable, and loaded with airtime. But there is something many of us don't know; Vekoma only does the train design and ride construction. The rides were actually desinged by two different companies. What if Vekoma did the actual designing of the track and supports? The result would probably be this rough 500-foot tall, long boring helix possesing, supports and track in the face smacking, 100+mph death machine. Edit: Scroll down six posts to download updated version.[/b] Vekoma Woodie.nltrack Version 1.0 And just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, this coaster doesn't use those awsome Vekoma woodie trains, it uses Morgans! The 500+foot tall hill. A look at one of the "face smackin'" crossovers. The ride's insane helix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShoubraStreet74 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 LOL. That coaster was hilarious. -20G airtime. heh heh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking86 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Thundercoaster is definately not smooth, comfortable and loaded with airtime. It used to be good, but now its rough and slow compared to what it once was. Alot of the ejector air is now gone. Its still a good ride, but no where close to what it used to be a few years ago. They need to get rid of the Vekoma trains as it wasnt designed for those! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timpowes Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 I don't have NoLimits, but when i saw the 500+ foot tall drop, I started to laugh. It looked hilarious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V2-dude Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 For those of you who liked this one, I have started construction on a steel coaster version. This one is just as tall, and when complete, will be around 10,000 feet long. It will have more turns and face smackers than the woodie, and travel through "miniature" courses of Zonga and Mantis. Be afraid, be very afraid.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timpowes Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Omg hahahha I can see where it goes in/out... But I can't see how it's going inside all those tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V2-dude Posted April 29, 2006 Author Share Posted April 29, 2006 I have taken time off of the steel coaster to make this updated version. The turn after the first lift is now banked outward, and there is a part near the end that is so rough, you have to see it to believe it. Vekoma Woodie.nltrack Updated version. Umm... yeah. Outward banked turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterAddiction7 Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Nice coaster... It seems that you were bored with creating realistic coasters, so you decided to make a deadly one. Great job! P.S. I like the drop on the woodie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V2-dude Posted April 29, 2006 Author Share Posted April 29, 2006 ^I've only made one realistic coaster, so I'm not really "tired" of making them, I just thought it would be interesting. P.S. The steel version is done and is undergoing testing, so expect it very soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterAddiction7 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Oh, okay. Great coaster, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmcnsf Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 WOW, that woodie looks sick, with that first drop, I bet it is REAL fast. Can you make a video of it? I would love to view it, but I dont have any other coaster games other than RCT2. Hugs. Mikey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V2-dude Posted May 4, 2006 Author Share Posted May 4, 2006 Making videos in NL is a bit beyond the scope of my knowledge, but maybe someone else can make a video. So, if anyone can POV this coaster and the steel coaster "Vekoma Extreme", it will be much apreciated. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeow Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 i guess you would have to hold down the screenshoot button forever then some put all of them in chronological order somehow in a really complicated manner. or you could get a video camera and plug it into the audio and video input thingy if it has one and record it. it would be very weird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
