Hi,

I would like to know what is the right friction on FVD for the Intamin New Gen because I put more than the height of Kondaa and the Coaster hardly reaches 110 km/h

Hey, you probably won't see this but where can I get my hands on the circle from your handbuilding bible? Haven't been able to find it anywhere... Thanks!

I made one - been meaning to release it for awhile. Thanks for the reminder. I don't know what the original one in this thread was in terms of size but mine has a 40 foot radius - simply scale to whatever size you need.

I spend about twelve hours a day at this theme park
Drive myself in, first in line for short waits
Ride, round it up, rank them up, 388 up
Wish the tickets weren't a lousy eighty bucks

You create it, you share it, we feature it!

Do I use the hybrid coaster for the contest

Wasn't able to take part in the original Springlake park Contest; excited to take part in this one!

First contest I’m gonna compete in, wish me luck!

All times are pushed back to August 3rd to leave time for the Springlake Park competition.

Updated Times:

Part 1: August 3-17

Part 2: August 25-September 8

Part 1 Results: August 24

Part 2 Results: September 15

Super excited!

Judges will be selected soon DM me on Discord if you wanna be a judge.

This is my first contest, so suffer through this with me.

This contest has two parts, the first part includes making a wooden coaster. The winner's coaster will then be used in the second part. The second part will include making a RMC Conversion of a coaster from Part 1, which will be the final coaster used in the judging.

PART 1

A blank park will be used to create a wooden roller coaster. There are no rules except that a Non RMC wooden coaster must be built. (No RMC Topper Track) Custom styles may be used, but must be checked with me first. (DM me on Discord AquaBob#6969 I'm also on the NLC server) Custom scenery and terrain is encouraged, and all layouts must be custom.

PART 1 JUDGING

Part 1 will be judged by me and a set of judges. These will be judged based on layout, smoothness, scenery, terrain, quality, and uniqueness. They will not be judged on how well of an RMC it will become so DONT MAKE IT THAT WAY! IT WILL NOT WIN!

PART 2

Contestants will create a RMC conversion of the contestants choice of the Top 5 from Part 1. The parks will be available for download. All terrain must be kept with minimal changes, and scenery can be changed. The regular or launched RMC type may be used, or a custom style. (Again, check with me for custom style)

PART 2 JUDGING

Part 2 will be judged by me and the same set of judges. Results will be released Friday August 13. These will be judged on layout, smoothness, scenery, terrain, quality, uniqueness, and how effective of a conversion it is. (How much of the original supports are reused, etc.)

PRIZES

PART 1

1st Place - $10 Steam/Amazon Gift Card

PART 2

1st Place - $15 Steam/Amazon Gift Card

2nd Place - $10 Steam/Amazon Gift Card

3rd Place - $5 Steam/Amazon Gift Card

RULES

Terrain Change from Part 1 - Part 2 is not allowed, except some minor changes that are necessary for the conversion.

Scenery Change from Part 1 - Part 2 is allowed.

Custom Track/Trains are allowed but must be approved by me.

Handbuilding, FVD, and 3D Modeling are all allowed for the track construction.

Terrain and scenery are encouraged, as they give extra points in the judging.

Reconstructions from IRL Coasters are not allowed.

Extra points for color scheme, name, theme, and certain elements may be used.

Launch coasters for Part 1 or an added launch in Part 2 are allowed.

Transfer track and a storage shed for every train must be built.

Participation in both Parts 1 and 2 are mandatory.

Good luck everyone! Feel free to DM me or ping me in the NLC server!

There’s enough room to build there but you’re right there’s not much room. That’s part of the challenge

How many tall is the gap between the red and green boundary? Because you can't go below the red line there isn't much height to work with.

No since that’s not an in-game style and requires custom scenery

Create any coaster you like from the in-game selection only (light pattern creator single-rail coasters are allowed)

Does this mean that TheCodeMaster's RMC Raptor style is allowed?
