    Ooo, I cant wait to see the whole layout of this coaster, this little teaser looks great! :D

    And TBH, I would like to see those blocks colored, it adds to the screen, if they are just gray, it will just blend with the paths and gray brick support walls. And its not like coloring them would be "unrealistic", you can paint concrete, after all ;)
  • RCTFAN%s's Photo
    Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant the actual blocks themselves as opposed to the colour (although the colour did need changing and grey would work well).

    I just feel that there is no need to pronounce the lip of that tunnel. I'd prefer if it was parallel with the ground plane and to see trains just erupt out of the ground unexpected, whereas if you can see the lip then it defeats the object. Of course if you want that then that's fine lol, however i feel that the foliage border works well enough.

    P.S love the overview too

    I would make the grey walls brown. Will be different than a boring grey tunnel...

    Purple/Yellow inverts if I remember right (the duelers).

    EDIT: Nevermind, they weren't duelers. It was Coyote Hills. Sorry bout that. But yeah, looks good. :)

    I can't really get all that excited about a tunnel but the 4d looks good.

    sure you can. pretend the tunnel is full of free beer or something.

    James, could you fix the download for coyote hills, or send me the park? I'd like to see it now that intamin has gotten me interested.

    I'd like to see that too, just to compare. I think it'd look good.

    The screen looks good as it is though, good to see a 4D, they're pretty neglected.

    Try this one. I'm pretty sure it works though however I can't test it right now.

    free beer?? I'm there.

    ^that download works btw...
  • RCTNW%s's Photo
    ^ Sorry guys, no free beer, at least not in the tunnel! We do have free beer on the swim-up-bar in the shark tank next to Thresher though! :)
  • woofenskid%s's Photo
    free beer, just make it past the sharks!

    is the beer really worth my left leg?
  • RCTNW%s's Photo
    ^ The sharks want you to think it is!

    Besides, the cost of Beer in the park will cost you "An arm and a Leg" anyway.

    I know, bad joke but woofenskid set me up for it. What was I supposed to do, let it slide!

  • JDP%s's Photo
    ^Screw theming. I don't like 4D coasters at all buts it whatever, I think it looks pretty good. :)

    I find one of your supports unrealistic, as footers are supposed to go into ground, not 21/2 feet of concrete.

    meh, that's fine. Who's to say that's not a 21/2 foot thick I-beam coated in concrete; which considering modern tunnel construction is far more likely anyway.

    The fact that you built a 4D deserves major kudos anyway because that shit is tough (assuming you included seat rotations, etc).
