  1. :POne thing I can see straight away is that your sections are too big, by making them smaller you get more control, and tighter, more fun transitions :PI must say though, your supporting was great and is miles better than mine, that's always something I've loathed/struggled with.Ah also with yours, the block sections need to be sloped downwards so the cars restart again, also I think 25mph+ is just a tad faster than the speed Fury goes through it's blocks :lolHonestly, it's great for someone so new to the game!
  2. Of course not, I do the same One thing though which would help you with this ride, change the coaster type to the Gerstlauer Bobsled and you will see a lot more of the pumps, it happened to me, I created a fantastic spinner, it was relatively smooth, I uploaded it and it got slated for being rough, turns out for some reason the ride is smoother when the Maurer Sohne Spinner. It's still my personal favourite when creating rides on NL.Also, with the trees, enclose your whole ride in a tunnel (Right Click, check the tunnel box) and if any trees, track or supports are in that, then there in that "reach area"Also, you can get the ride spinning to lock at a different point. :PIt could possibly be the reason it seemed so fast on the brakes was the POV which "can" speed things up, if there was a way I could download it I'd love to take a closer look.Hope any of that has helped, I'm not trying to sound like a know-it-all, I really am not and my coasters are far from brilliant, just some tips I've picked up over my time playing the game.
  3. Interesting, first time in a while that Chessington has reached capacity and Thorpe hasn't, ?
  4. If thats one of your first coasters thats really, very good :PA couple of tips.-Shaping was off in quite a lot of places, meaning G's were crazy, this will come with experience- The brakes were WAY to sharp at the end and the cars went way,way,way to fast through the block brakes. - Trees etc were a little close, but added a nice landscape. - There were quite a few pumps, but to be honest these were hardly noticeable considering its a first coaster.That looks like a lot, but really it was great for a first coaster.
  5. Ah I guess :PThat new theming is pretty good , hopefully more little bits like that are going to be added.

    Oh...Wasn't expecting huge amounts but possibly more than that. Although then again when your re-theming an area themed similar to pirates, to a pirate land, what do you expect.
  7. Awesome TR, excited for my trip next week What is this Rita interaction thing ? Also, sadly I think your right about Nemesis being the best thing we'll ever see. Still love Thirteen though

    ^ I was just going to mention that, I've not seen any pictures at all. Or even written reviews of the new ride/ re-vamped Pirate Falls.
  9. ^ I think your website's very good :PThere are a few things I'd change, for example some of the ratings, personally I think are incorrect. But that's my opinion, and also the queue for Battle Galleons is apparently usually between 20-40. Whenever I have visited, it doesn't matter how busy, even in the middle of summer the queue for that has never been over 5.Other than that very good :(Edit: By the ratings, I mean for example, Air is apparently as thrilling as Oblivion

    ^ Oh brilliant :PThanks
  11. I have looked for train tickets to Chessington, and it's too much for me as well, and still nowhere near £130. It seems the time which we would all be travelling to get to the park for when it opens/closes is when tickets are most expensive.

    ^ Definitely, they did exceptionally well when the weather conditions are taken into account, it was rumoured the snow put them back something like 4 weeks, and for it to still be open on time was fantastic. Not only that it's been pretty reliable for a brand new world first.
  14. James6 replied to Sheepie's topic in UK Attractions
    ^ Yeah, the amount of work done in the 2 days before opening between boot camp and opening, was astounding. (Not that I saw from myself, reported from a friend )
  15. I have got to see this , how many do you have ?
  16. Looks great for first proper ride , But the shaping of that turn in the last picture does look off, would be surprised if there wasn't a G spike there.
  17. http://ellen.warnerbros.com/Get a look at the queue and re-themed Flying Unicorn. I am still amazed by this, can't wait to try it out
  18. James6 replied to Sheepie's topic in UK Attractions
    Yeah they do board it

    http://www.towersnerd.com/features/games/sims/files/th13teen.swfAwesome Thirteen sim there Gives you a good idea of the ride if you've not been on it. Also shows the awesome theme tune
  20. 2 new huge coasters have been built in the States, Intimidator at Carowinds and Intimidator 305 at Kings Dominion.Both open today.The main one I wanted to talk about is I305, its the 2nd/3rd (If include one in Japan) Giga coaster built and it looks incredible. The amount of airtime and the quick transitions look fantastic! Shame we'll never see anything like it in this country. Only POV I could find was this one from TPR, so thanks TPR. What do you guys think ?

    Kobra currently unavailable guys
  22. I agree with Electric Bill about there being sections within the asia area. As I think the area would be huge if Mystic East and Wild Asia were combined and also, one is oriental one is Ruins/temple like.
