3ds Max Track Importer for No Limits 2
NoLimits Coaster

PvM posted on December 30th, 2017

Hey everyone,

I created this little plugin for 3ds Max that lets you import spline data from No Limits 2 and create your own custom track profile. It can be used to create custom track looks or to create a clearance envelope for your tracks. I added a couple of predefined track styles but you can create your own if you want.

What can it do?

  • Import detailed model from your track
  • Add mapping coordinates for striped rails etc.
  • Add your own track style

Currently not supported:

  • Tracks with diagonal cross ties

I also currently haven't included any clearance envelopes but they can be created using the small instruction included in the readme.

Included tracks:

B&M:

B&M Invert:

Arrow Style Corkscrew:

Intamin Mega Coaster:

Intamin Pantheon Track (MK2)

Meisho:

Morgan Classic:

Morgan Steel Dragon:

Premier:

RMC Raptor:

S&S:

Senyo Kogyo Dive Coaster:

TOGO:

TOGO Ultra Twister:

Vekoma Junior Boomerang:

Vekoma MK1101:

Vekoma MK1101 Invert:

Vekoma Suspended Thrill Coaster:

update log:

1.1:

  • added connector ties
  • added the ability to connect the start and end of the track
  • fixed the scaling issue caused by different world units in 3ds Max

1.2:

  • fixed importing crash with very small numbers
  • combined the 2 versions of the script into one that works regardless of unit setup

1.3:

  • added connectors between ties
  • added 5 more track styles including Intamin Mega Coaster, Premier plate and beam style, RMC Raptor and S&S track

1.4:

  • fixed the flipped normals issue
  • improved the UVW-mapping option
  • track now comes with textures
  • track is recolorable within the NoLimits editor
  • added 2 track styles: Vekoma Junior Boomerang and Meisho

1.5:

  • hopefully fixed the UVW-mapping problems
  • added the option to generate mapping coordinates for track styles with the rails on the inside of the ties.
  • added 3 track styles: Senyo Kogyo, Vekoma STC and special thanks go to Tyrush for providing an accurate model for the Intamin MK2
  • Updated all the templates to 3ds Max 2021

Please let me know what you think of it. Any suggestions, track files etc are welcome to make this plugin even better.

Can you look at my requests like: Schiff mouse track and Arrow Mine Train track?

I don't have the money for 3DS max. can it work with a non-full version of the software? Or maybe get the trial and it will stay when the trial ends

Yes, you can use the plugin with the trial and you won't need a credit card as Jetcoasterfan suggests.

no actually, I've still been trying to play around with it but I haven't been able to get anywhere...

Would you be able to send me your .csv file in a pm? I tried recreating the problem by changing my system's decimal notations and switching between the metric and imperial system, but with no luck. (this used to be the problem in previous versions).
