Paradox posted on December 23rd, 2017

Post news and construction updates for new rides, coasters, and parks for 2018 here!

I'll start with the new prototype being built at Vekoma's factory. It's rumored to be a tilt coaster, a spinning coaster, or a water coaster, but who really knows at this point.






Found this on the r/rollercoasters reddit:
http://themeparkfreaks.eu/2017/12/breaking-energylandia-bevestigd-rmc-en-wil-ook-een-tilt-coaster-bouwen/

It sounds like Energylandia is due to receive a tilt coaster and a launched, inverting water coaster. That vekoma prototype track could be for either. :)

Also according to the article, they will be building a ground-up RMC hybrid and a mine train (Presumably Vekoma).

Idk, I think it will make for a pretty cool "holy sh*t I'm gonna die" feeling. B&M dives make it feel great in the front row but kind of lack that feeling in the back, it'll be a nice change in pace to have the entire train trimmed while going down a 60 degree angle followed by a beyond vertical drop.

The "What Did You Just Do In NoLimits" Thread

^ I know right? Also, how do you make a custom env file?

Staff edit: Please use a ^ instead of quoting the post right above yours. Especially when it contains pictures. Thanks!


Reposting the POV of my B&M Hyper because apparently the link from my phone did not work.

Anyway, I think I have to work on the track - I might want to learn FVD++ soon. Any tips?

^ Freethebear was telling me about this, I tested it and it works fine. It doesn't seem to be an NLC issue, as it's just a link that goes directly to steam that the user enters. I tested the one bear sent and it worked fine

Collection of concept art, layouts and other real world material

Bringing a beloved thread of mine back to life. Enjoy random finds scattered all around the Internet, related to real rides or considered concepts.

I'll start with a patent I just found: Watercraft amusement ride

It looks like Pulsar isn't it?

A water ride, a shuttle, magnetic launch... Yeah, totally! Although... this patent is from 1996.

From this documentary I've yet to watch, member Blue Bumble Bee on Coasterfriends found a familiar sight within the Gerstlauer factory:

Yes, "car textures"!

Now feel free to post your own discoveries, or things we discussed in the previous topic that we sadly lost altogether.

NOTICE: NLE has been permanently shut down
General

Having spoken to Matt in the past, I know that he would never have intentionally wanted this to happen. That website was set up to replace CoasterSims when it died, most people here don't even remember those days and what Matt did was pay homage to that original site, which sadly died due to 'Real Life'.

I feel the same has happened to NLE. It was never his intention for it to die, he had big, bold plans and I remember talking to him quite a lot about it when it was in development. A chat room was planned, something which was a HUGE part of CoasterSims. He had plans for a track tennis system, heck, I was the last person to run Track Tennis and a Three Blind Mice contest. Matt had big hopes and plans for NLE and it's gone as a result of him moving on, expanding and starting his career in web development. He sadly lost the passion for what was a great website for the interim. NLC looks set to be fantastic, but let us not forget what Matt did and the sheer cost of running and hosting a website of that size. Matt did a great job and for that I thank him. I thank all those who created CoasterSims and got me into this community and helped me to expand and develop my ideas and rides (most which were never released) and I thank those who have worked hard tirelessly to develop NLC. I look forward to being a part of the community once again, it's been a few years.

Thanks Matt, next time I see you, I owe you a beer. Thanks for the great ride!
