The "What Did You Just Do In NoLimits" Thread

...and then yesterday I finally finished smoothing it. So will need to do NEW vids, at some point...

I got the software that transfer drone photos into detailed 3Dmodel may helpful for recreation

Tweaked this ride and updated the video

Pattaya Park's Formula One coaster recreation

I never seen an Mine Train coaster with a chain driven hill with a corner.

You have now! lol

Off ride view

Thats so close with the original.

Finally got round to making a video of one of my spinning rides. It didn't seem to spin that much on this video, so I tried doing it again, and again, and again. Maybe the physics simulation isn't as accurate when recording a video? It gives a reasonable impression of it though.

Wrapped up this one today!

I...reinstalled it. I've been a NL user since day 1 of NoLimits 1. Got NL2 on release. Dabbled here and there. I have NEVER completed a coaster. Not one. I just haven't had the time to devote to it to learn it. But I figure I do now, and there should be plenty of tutorials around to help me along the way.

Oh - anyone from the old RCT forums from forever ago - I know there are a few of you around here. I'm Apollo's Chariot.

Welcome back! :) I think we have a good range of creative people in the community. Some are real professionals and some are new to the game. In between there are all levels and colors that lie in between. Which is a good thing.
Not everybody have to be a pro from the start. If you can't finish anything, the level at which you would like to start may be too high. Above all, you shouldn't forget the fun of it. In my opinion there are very nice coaster and parks that are very minimal but decorated and lively.
Beside that, if you never be satisfied with your projects.. start with simply a coaster that is fun or totally over the top. Without the defined shaping of a special type of coaster manufacturer. Just do it :D
In most cases, you´ll even don´t need the technical knowledge and you can make a great coaster with a very few vertices.
Put some trees around it, a bit of landscaping, perhaps, or some of the rides. I think sometimes the hardest part is to getting started and work on from there.
Make revisions. Put your coaster by side and look at it after a few days. I am sure you will get some ideas and see, what would fit to make it even better. Or what will help the immersion. But as i said, do never forget to have fun! Start small, go big! ;)

Nice supports! I can see they took some time to create.

My progress. I have put in over 4000 objects.

Do you ever get paid to place soooo many track nodes close together and in such large amounts?

That Knightmare recreation looks really great! Love the work on the supports, must been a pain in the a**. Great work!

Newbie so please be nice. Here's my first attempt at a spinning coaster. I used the park from 5HOP7 but in no way is this intended as a submission. I didn't get NL2 until last week! I realise this is unrealistic as a "transportable" coaster but I had fun trying to make it. I did manage to produce a somewhat reasonable track layout within five hours but getting the station and the MCBR escape structure built took MUCH longer. Constructive criticism welcome.

Why yes, the lack of live music and concerts due to the pandemic has been getting to me, how could you tell?

A second coaster very much a work in process. This is an inverted coaster set in a valley. I'm reasonably satisfied with the track but a couple of kinks to work out. The land form is close but lots of scenery, rocks trees bushes etc still needed. Have not started on the supports.

It is done

^ I can only guess that you've kept adding to it, and it's just continued growing since we last saw it, when it was just a baby..
Nice work.

^^Do you even make coasters anymore or just concerts now? I couldn't imagine having nearly enough patience for making that. Wonder if you'd absolutely need an RTX graphics card to even stand a chance at having frame rates above a slide show.

To be honest, it's just I'm really burnt out of making coasters after all these years, so it may be pretty few and far between when I work on them.

I don't think anything short of a super computer could run with without lag. When the lighting and stage itself is on its own way off to the side with no other scenery, it runs mostly fine, but when you add in the audience, stage shell and particle effects for the pyro, no chance.
