^ None that I am aware of, unfortunately.

Hi! Since I'm not sure which thread this question belongs, I'll ask it here.

Does anyone know where I can find the old NL2Cast episode where they talk about the Roundup 100 winners? It appears to have been taken down from the NL2Cast YouTube channel along with all of their other episodes. Even if the podcast series has been cancelled, I'd really like to listen to that particular episode if it's still available somewhere!

Is there a way to use an FVD exported element in a backwards mode? I've created 3 parts in FVD, the first part being the foward part, the second being the backwards part which I want to connect to the back side of a fork switch. So is there a way I can connect it correctly?

Thanks guys! That's really helpful. Money is no object (recently taken early retirement) so at least I don't have to worry on that score. I actually run it on an XP PC at the moment. I also use a Win7 PC for other things, and did try a year ago to install NL2 on that, but there was some strange hardware issue (can't remember now) and I had to abandon it. I should say that I am reluctant to ever move on from Win7, even if ceases to be supported by M/S, and I'll resist that to the death, ha ha! Anyway, I shall pass all those specifications to the people who I get to build it for me, and they can sort out all the vagaries, e.g. Direct X (never understood what that was all about!) There used to be a lot of bluffers setting up PCs years ago, but now - in the age of "gaming" - hopefully they're ll a bit more clued up in my area. Anyway, thanks again!

Pro Version question about bogie distance. I see fintamin made a nice chart on bogie distances. I assume this is the left to right distance not front to back spacing of the axles. If it is the gauge does the type of coaster change the export spline left and right distance numbers? Or are they always the same no mater what coaster style you build and export?

thanks

U might try to send him an PM directly. He can answer that.

Hi. Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere on the site, but I've decided I need a new PC to get the best out of NL2. Already I've discovered that certain coasters only play with top grade hardware, so could anyone please tell em what specifications I should be looking for? I'm guessing (a) processor speed, (b) amount of RAM, and (c) video RAM (or whatever it's called)? Anything else? Thanks for any pointers!

In case anyone else has the question here is the answers to my questions:

gauge is from center of rail to center of rail

bogie distance is from car 1 bogie to car 2 bogie

export spline is always the same as it only follows the geometry of the centerline. If you change the style of the coaster you can see that the gauge changes but the centerline remains in the same position (I assume the left and right splines do not change either)
