Okay, sure... Why not? What exactly is so wrong with it that it deserves to be described as "not looking good"?

Do I really have to say this? :D

Wow...
Start with the Textures, very low Resolution, looking like I don't know, I wouldn't ride a Coaster if it's Track looked like this...

It's extremely low Detail.
I'm mean working low-poly is greatly okay, but low detail, hell no...
If the original NL2 Tracks and Textures look better, you're doing something wrong here...

Do I need to add more?

One last day to go guys! Get those coasters finished! (Im looking at you code)

^^ You're mixing up two things here Brett. I remember that other concept you're talking about, but that was another model and for the heck of me I can't find a video... I think it was erased from the surface of the Internet, ha.

i could have sworn that was this guys model... yeah i was trying to find the video of him talking about it but it appears to have gone.

I had to rush it it to finish, but it's in.

Sorry it’s been awhile!

I've been hard at work writing. I received several suggestions that I should expand the scope of the book to be about the resort as a whole. After doing some thinking about it I decided that would be the best way to go. The last book written about Saltair was written over 30 years ago and this year of 2018 is the 125th anniversary of the resort. Which makes a perfect time to release a new book about Saltair. My book will be much more in detail then the book written 30 years ago. There will facts and figures never before discussed before and have been lost until now. It will explain where the name of Saltair came from, the resorts that came before it and then how Saltair came to be. The new working title is the Lost History of Saltair. It will still contain all the information on the roller coasters. I am hoping to have it finished and released by July 4th. I will work on being better at keeping all you awesome donors in the loop. Because thanks you awesome donors I have been able to gain access to images of the resort and of the roller coasters that have never been published before.

Thanks Again and I will send more regular updates!

entry #2????

(not in 24 hrs no lol)

Others havent been having the issue, so I dont know how to help really

The main template is not extracting for me.

Peregrine by JoeLimits2 and me

I have this figure 8 coaster in NL2 now. I downloaded it from the defunct NLE.

The story of the figure-8-loop coaster is a bit strange. It was not designed by Schwarzkopf. This mistake appears often in books or on websites. This causes maybe in the fact, that the model looked really like a Schwarzkopf coaster!!! The concept was designed by a german showmen, Mister Pötzsch - he owns the patents for the two figure-8 elements, the standing eight and the laydown eight. It was calculated by Werner Stengel but wasn't built due to the high forces. A model of the ride has been displayed at some trade fairs at the Zierer booth. Zierer has no own track fabrication for tubular rails, so I think that maybe BHS was planned to produce it. But Anton Schwarzkopf worked some time for BHS as a consultant

Don't want to spoil the "What did you just do"-Thread with this monstrosity. Discord-People already know this probably

I finished this up if anyone is interested. POV

Not to be a downer but I agree with Emonadeo. Id definitely post pictures of your coaster first so people know what they are working with and what the scale of work needs to be done as scenery can be quite time consuming. In my opinion, I suggest giving it a go yourself with perhaps Google Sketchup as it is quite easy to work with and then asking for pointers/help once you have something to show.

Let's have every user on this forum appeal this project daily in a round-robin manner. Here's is my contribution to express amazement:

This looks better than Disney.

Can you provide pictures of the current state of the coaster? That might be helpful for potential volunteers to judge whether it's worth the effort.

Code, that Custom Track is not looking good.

I want to start my coaster in the station in full manual mode using a script. Then I want to hit some keys to do this

3 - Close Gates
2 - Close Harness
1 - Disengage Floor
Enter - Dispatch

Then I want it to reset when it gets back to the station so the user can hit the keys again in the correct sequence to dispatch the car. My coaster is set to closed circuit and it is the only train on the track.

Any help or suggestions would be great. Thanks for your time.

^Precisely. Made a NL1 version of that using the 'camera on the side of the car' method, which doesn't take G-forces and clearance into account.
