Well I know Hansixx kicked my ass lol, so I won't go super extreme on this one! All I'm going to say if that I've got a 90 degree drop, and an interesting inversion.

You never know... GFA beat Hansixx in the first round of the match-up contest last year. Nothing is impossible. (although hansixx is, as always, the favorite...)

*Trumpet Blast*

[^]!!!!DONE!!!![^]


It's called Iris...because I listened to the song "Iris" (Goo Goo Dolls) about 50 gazillion times while making it. The car texture has an eye in a pyramid. About the only really distinguishing features are the 25 mph lift hill (launch hill?, the MCB's that keep the car moving at the same pace (30 mph), and a very strange conglomeration of helix elements that becomes a tangled mess and was a real b**** to support. The supports are 100% custom, although some of the parts near the ground have hand-built copies of prefab supports (the single pole). I guess that's it... oh, BTW....go ride it. [lol]

Later Foo's

Kazan is nearing the final phases of construction. After 5 hours of work on the lift hill supports, I finally finished the beastly task of safely supporting the massive loop at the top of the launch. In the end, the launch wound up with traditional hyper supports, and the loop ended up being a massive tower of steel pipes with 4 arms extending out of it to hold the loop up 325 ft in the air. I have taken out the underground tunnels, due to my lack of 3ds skill, and gone in favor of a trench design. The track is smoothed to near-perfection, and is bound to create quite a buzz. I'll see you all on Monday, with the end of this massive project.

I believe you can if you spot some dumb mistakes. Read back on the first page. I'm not sure if I said this, but I finished my ride, it's called Tweak. Go check it out in the track exchange.

Buh, need to take a time out. Those supports really take a long time [;)]

And I have a few questions:

- Why is everyone putting terraforming in it? I mean, it's for SFMM, it's not that they're gonna build a giant mountain. I was already thinking of making the ground texture look like a parking lot, that would have been realistic [:p]

- A hypercoaster with inversions? Keep it real [;)]

Owe well, still good luck to cjd (who's ride is completely different from mine) and MFkiDD30

See you all tomorrow...

[lol] @ me, I had to re-read the rules right now to make sure the idea I came up with is ok to do. I completely ran out of time and to top it off, the track I was working on all week, stopped working today, so in the past hour I made an entire hyper coaster with three train operation that beats up MF and to top it off I make uhmm somewhat new thingy, and uhmm also I am done with the supports and the ride is smooth to my knowledge as well and all g forces are in check too [:D] I need to do some testing and then I submit, I got till 3 pm tomorrow anyway acording to the times GFA posted.

WOW, coasterke. That track was a whole lot better than I anticipated. I think GFA is going to have headaches trying to choose between our tracks. AWESOME JOB!

I just noticed that I can't upload trackpackages including 3DS here. I'm sorry for doing this... It was my first upload and stupid me read the rules after the upload...
Unfortunatly I don't know how to delete my own ride. So, if it needs to get deleted, please go ahead and do so.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Buster.
