Nice job! I love the accuracy of the supports and the two chains. How did you do the chains like that?

A word of advice: When making POV videos, turn off depth of field. It's distracting and confusing.

Thank you! :D
About the chains: I used like 3 different coasters there (Vekoma minetrain for the "old trains", LIM coaster for the track and the Zamperla bobsled for the catwalks, i think). So the vekoma was completely invisible (The rideable one), and i used the LIM for the entire structure, made the lift with normal track and "overlayed" 2 chain sections with se same shape on the lift and made them invisible (their chain will show anyways) and i disabled the anti rollback thingy and moved both sections sideways so it gives the illusion of two lifts on both sides of the non invisible track :D
Then in the simulator i just selected the "structure" and put both lifts running (it has a "removed from track" train so i can controll the lifts even without having a train on the entire track) and then i switched to the "real" ride.
I just made a mess here D:

^^^I love it, man! It looks extremely polished and well done. I even decided to put it head-to-head with the real thing and see how they compared. Yours fell a little behind starting at the twister section, but other than that it's brilliant. The trackwork is just spot on.

Thanks! When steel dragon had the old trains it ran a bit slower, those B&M are way faster!
Aaaaand i feel i made those helixes too big anyways xD

This is my new project. its a mack rides big dipper. the idea of this project was to make something like a communitycoaster. i made it using instagram and the function to vote for two different things like the hight of the coaster or if it uses a launch or lift and so on. i really liked to create something with so much restrictions.
tell me what you think ! it will be released soon.

Ahhh. I see what you mean now. I thought you found a way to use instagram to make the layout, lmao. smh at me. I'd eventually want to participate in something with restrictions.

Just an idea I had for a compact, triple-launch shuttle. I'm not really a fan of the Skyrocket II clones, so I wanted to try something similar on my own merits. I gave myself a box (80m x 30m x 35m) that I wanted to fit my track inside and went from there, knowing that I wanted to squeeze in a non-inverting loop.

Inspirations are Abyss at Adventure World, Hangtime at Knott's Berry Farm, and Gold Rush at Slagharen.

^^^ This looks awesome, the only thing that arises some tiny kind of uncertainty is the roll rate of that non inverted loop roll, but it's hard to tell without seeing it in motion, from the pictures it looks very tight at least.

^^ That's also kind of interesting.

I quite like that.

I have finished my Crystal Beach Cyclone recreation. It's built completely from scratch (not the one that came with NoLimits) using blueprints, photos and videos.

^ That's skill.

It's slowly but surly coming along. I had to do those I/H beams twice.

Edit:
I'm also doing a name change for this one. I've researched and Amnesia Haze is a sativa. So, I'm going to change the name to Pineapple Kush since it's a Hybrid.

^^What a beautiful re-creation.

^I like what I'm seeing so far but I think those rail colours could be significantly more vibrant. As it stands they look pretty dull and washed out. A bright goldy yellow and less sandy green might suffice.

I finally get a critiqued comment. Thank you Bolt789. The rail colors being dull was intentional before I researched on Leafy that Amnesia Haze is a sativa. That was the name of the ride before I decided to change the name. I was planning on using pipette to get colors of a Pineapple, which I haven't done yet.

Here is a video of a GCI I quickly made in 2 days that fits into the area that Carowinds is currently clearing out. I'm not even sure if it is going to be a GCI but I hope you enjoy it none the less!
