The "What Did You Just Do In NoLimits" Thread

Oh a Spinning Coaster? These are such a rare treasure in NL2. In fact a NL1 recreation of Winja's @ Phantasialand was what got me into NL in the first place. I really adore the corkyness of these things. Maurer's Spinning Coasters will always have a special place in my heart. So underrated.
After a little hiatus due to some much needed vacation time this is FINALLY coming to a close. Only a little bit more tweaking and then it will be ready for download and I cant be happier to say that. With that being said here is a little image and if you haven't seen it yet, a video. Stay tuned.

I really like that layout a lot, Tim! It actually got me thinking about a spinning layout I attempted and never finished.
I had a few ideas of what I wanted to do with this ride. I had a 70s disco theme in mind, it was going to be great. I just lost interest in it, though, and I think THIS was one of the main reasons:
I just got so frustrated with trying to pull off the spine on this noninverted loop. I could have just used the XCar spine (which if I ever come back to it I might end up doing), but I just didn't want to deal with the rails looking off when it transitioned between the two rail types. I tried my best.
I like that a lot, good job!!!

Looks a lot of fun :

^Are you planning on making this coaster infinitely long?
He tried that. His computer said no, and crashed.
I really want to see a program made that auto-generates a jet coaster with the correct transitions and does not collide with itself. Then we could unleash the true power of the dark side...
Can TheCodeMaster do that? I really want it done!
^^^Wonder if Jetcoasterfan has ever thought of joining the NL2dev team. That way he wouldn't have to bug the devs about making it powerful enough to need to run on a quantum computer so he can make a 1000 mile long jetcoaster
I would love to do that. I could test and try to push the current build to the limit with this
Or my 26 mile long "I'm Sorry" jet coaster!
are you going to do supports? :D
Started to work on the supports. What do you think of these y-supports?
Also, I promise that this will be the last post of my project in the WDYJD thread (unless there's a question). I'll start a new thread specifically for these so that I won't annoy people too much.
You would be better off making the support an X shape. It would be stronger.
Yeah, two thicker vertical beams with X shaped cross bracing should do the trick and look nice.
^The real Schwarzkopf supports are this thin. These are 12" pipes.
I changed the name and color scheme of my Kingpin coaster to Aces Flyin'.
My custom togo progress.
The foreground is actually quite reasonable, I think.
Working on a little something that would be sweet at Lagoon.
I found this REALLY bizarre funfair very old No Limits 1 coaster called Hellbender. Wishmaster made it. It is on Coastercracy from 2009.
Just look at the layout and elements! I am currently reworking it with new supports, new base grid and a sized down layout using the coaster saved as a custom element.
It's ugly but I like it.
Can you please make that a funfair coaster and use a grid underneath the coaster like in funfairs?

How many negative Gs are there on the bottom of the first drop?
I bet the Beast's designers wish they could have done that.
