| I see pre-fab supports. Get rid of those and make your own. Looks like the lats could get pretty high in that turning section after the lift. Make sure it's within reasonable limits. If you don't know what that is, go do some research. |

| I know what Lateral G's are and the g's are within limits. Wow never knew that changing pre fabs to custom could take this long! |
A big drop is a good drop. |

| Just because you know what the forces are doesn't mean you know what reasonable limits are. What are the max forces on that ride? |

| No, it's obviously 96563909.999G vertical, 48721039421.223G lateral. |
HA, I DON'T HAVE A SIG - wait, what? |

The layout isn't even right. Try looking at bing maps and compare. The shaping in the first part is all wrong. Have you been on the ride or at least seen a POV?! you said this would be released in October. Don't spend 20 minutes on it and let it sit on your hard drive until then.
It doesn't even look like an Arrow. Arrow would never do that quick S turn before the second lift. The second lift is perpendicular to the first. And the 3rd is parallel to the second. The overall length I can tell is too long just by looking at it.
Hell, I know all this and I haven't even been on the damn thing or SFOG!
Spend some time on this. Look at pictures for shaping techniques! Get the length of the track as close as possible as well. Upload it when you can't tell the difference between your track and the POV. |

| Here is another thing. Every time you make a coaster, you don't need a topic about it. |

| I've never even heard of this ride before, but it is Arrow so its possible 1.7 is also in real life,also 2 vert Gs is quite possible too, considering its a mine train which are never forceful . on another thing you defend yourself with pictures but your pictures do not correlate with each other, if you show an ariel view of the real ride, show the exact same ariel of your ride, if you defend yourself on s-turns, show real s-turns, then yours, not a crappy piece of scenery |
What are these for? |

| That's true. 1.7 could be a possibility on an Arrow, but I doubt it would be sustained for any real length of time. Are those lats sustained or is it a quick peak? |

| Alright, I was wrong. But, why do you only have right angles? The first lift appears to be 45 degrees to the station. In you're rec it's perpendicular. Stuff like that is what you want to look at. And it STILL doesn't look like an Arrow. |

| No it is perpendicular, and the mine train track is the only one in the program. |

*Facepalm*
Not the track type, the shape of the track. It doesn't look anything like Arrow!
I can clearly see in the bird's eye view that it is NOT perpendicular! What you have outlined is the shadow of the lift. Looking at it again, nothing is perpendicular or parallel really.
This is why you need to stay away from recreations for a while. Build a realistic coaster that is your own design. Work on the characteristics of each manufacturer. Hell, I ain't even got it down 100 percent and I've had the program since 2004! |

gforce: USE THE BIRD'S EYE VIEW! IT WILL HEL... You know what.. I don't care. Do whatever you want...
Here's what I meant to say: Thank you for making these beautiful ride recreations that are flawless and look EXACTLY like the real rides. This ride looks perfect and I think it's ready to upload, but make sure you spend a few more minutes tweaking it. I really am glad that you have taken our advice here at coastercrazy. I'm sure that our highly regarded members here will bow down to you and your skills.

No, you don't. The layout and shaping is wrong. The layout is close, but STOP using the grid so much!!!
It's too smooth to be an Arrow! |
