More progress on the coaster at Islands of Adventure. It looks promising so far, I'm excited to see the full layout come together.

EDIT: More pictures and a layout?

Here's the top down of the entire area, I tried to outline the support placement, and while a big chunk of the layout is blatantly there, there's still a large chunk missing. There's also a few spots where the track seems to link up, but I can't make much sense of it.

Anyone feel like giving it a try?

NoLimits 2 Fairground - watch new rides live on YouTube!

Extremely impressed from first impressions, the only main issue I had was understanding some of the dial's in the op booth due to them being labelled in german. I dont know if its possible or not to use those little info boxes at the start to change how the text is (i.e. replace the mat depending on what option is set) or not but it would be a welcome change

it´s really sad that the tüv had to restrict operations on infinity. back in 2016 when i first rode it, they had it inverting twice (full rotation) but without unlocking the seats, allowing them to swing. the year after though it unfortunatly changed. since then it goes around only once but unlocks the seat in the end. in my opinion the cycle feels a lot shorter compared to the first time i rode it but there´s not much i/we could do about it..

it´s absolutely great, never experienced as much hangtime or such strong forces

LMAO, there are plenty of Tagada there in Europe.

As for the number two, Flyman, it's back to a regular Star Flyer this year at La foire du Trône (it's currently there). But I rode it last year in the flying postition... My oh my it's indeed one of the most terrifying experience I've had. First of all, you're held by two thin steel cables and it's just scary. But also, you have nothing to grab once up there, even your suit is rather "flat". Granted I spent most of my time hands up on roller coasters and such, but still...
When the whole thing slows down, it sends you swinging forward a bit and it's really an out-of-control feeling to be linked to two thin steel cables wiggling and nowhere to put your hands on.


Unrelated but on topic, this Facebook page, Sad Maschinenbau Gmbh, is filled with videos of fairground rides shot in a factory environment, AKA without external noises or music. It's excellent for hearing the sounds of the machines... or steal them if you're making a simulation.

The "What Did You Just Do In NoLimits" Thread

Finishing up environment work on Skyliner and fixed up some of the track oddities:

To finish off the project, I'll be adding a custom station, a custom logo to the front of the train and headlights (sort of like Helix has).
As for which direction I should go on the station's design, I'm not sure. I'm thinking something modern and somewhat minimalistic would look good with this (something like Dragster's station's arch design in particular).

Let me know what you think about the ride and maybe give some suggestions - I'd like to see where I can improve this project :)

Also - I've noticed that for some reason, it looks a lot faster in the video than it actually is in-game. Is that because of the motion blur effect while recording? edit: Not sure why the video came out so dark - It was not like that in-game.
