Alengeist V2.0

Due to the success on my origional Alpengeist recreation (http://www.coastercrazy.com/track_exchang ... p?tid=8471) I have decided to move on with version 2. This will be the same track, only modified. If anyone is interested in helping me out, please let me know: rotmr1@yahoo.com

Here is a list of what I need:

-Photos of the station, queue, transfer track area, scenery surrounding the ride (including bridge), and on-ride photo booth
-Someone who can make 3D's
-Testers


Also, does anybody have any good tips on making a good wingover?

im gonna search for some pics and i love to test heres my email extremespike123@hotmail.com

Well, you could use elementary to make the wingover. But I'm sure that's the politicaly incorrect way.

well i go to buschgardens more then any other park and im a big fan of alpengeist i basiclly know everything bout it how everything is so if you need any help ask away.

^ same here

i have a picture of the station in my head but not on film or anything.

basically its just brownish, and theres some skis and stuff laying around

and theres an black board on the wall thats says like, names like Seymore butts, but like i forgot what they are, and yeah, on your first version, theres no brakes after the first drop, and going into the MCBR is a little bit fast. the only other 3ds you might want to look for is the ice creavese like things on the last helix

Actually, there is a brake just after the lift (look at the track above the level catwalk):

Maybe it was turned off on your visit?

The track will be sent to testers sometime today. Keep checking your E-mail.

Screenshots soon!

Would anyone like to do some 3D's?

if i could i would just ask someone dont wait for them to respond to this they'll never answer

New screenshots added! Please let me know what you think.

is ride heartlined? because if its not i think it should to get the correct feeling of the zero g. and the track work definatly looks right i jus hope its smooth

I tried sending the track to you. I think there is something wrong with you E-mail because I tried to send it through my regular E-mail and Yahoo. Both times it bounced back.

From what I understand, for the most part inverts are not heartlined, with the exception of zero-g-rolls, which are not 100% heartlied.

heres my email again. . .coasterfreak3@comcast.net

and just heartline for the heck of it makes it alitte bit more realistic

They are heartlined. It's just quick transitions and it's hard to see with the inverted track.

Still, it looks realistic and like the real thing and the G forces are in check. I'm not goingto rebuild the entire track to heartline it.

Don't worry, it will still be a great ride. [8D]

^ the brake just never makes noise, thats why i never notice it, plus, the trains in real have an extra car in front with no seats, so its covered up when you have the chance to see it

Define in check. They can be under 2.0 but thats not considered "in check" for the coaster type. They are heartlined and, like Woodie Man said, its just harder to tell. Part of that is being closer to the track than on other coaster genres.

I dont think its hard to tell.

Plus, if its a recreation, just resize it to be slightly bigger, then AHG which will shrink it back and voila - heartlined track which is accurate to the real thing.

Well of course YOU don't.[;)]
