Spend most of my enthusiast life being told how incredible this coaster was, but when I finally got on it I was left confused. The layout is repetitive and the airtime was kind of jerky and nor massively enjoyable. Plus it seemed so slow around the corners I felt gravity pulling me down...
I know from experience, Air and Nemesis run very differently and faster on hard wheels, but they are very very loud (illegally so). So this maybe a case of that as you can see in the videos this thing is LOUD atm. There is a tendency to do this when testing in the cold to prevent the danger of...
OMG <3 IT'S SO GOOD. It's so uncharacteristically un-B&M for initial test runs. I can't get over how it flies over the top of the turn around. It's actually made me think MAYBE the layout is so short because it's actually super intense.
Have been working with @parkscape_design to come up with the object creation. The station is inspired by places of worship I've visited over the years, I love the large scale of them and imposing design. It's been really difficult to get this right, so this is still just a draft so far, but I...
Trim is on one normal air-time hill after the speed hill.
This thing flies! I love it, I wouldn't be suprised if they find a way to slow it down though, if it runs like this on a cold day, god knows how it'll perform in the summer. But all in all, exciting for the intensity enthusiasts out...
Ha glad you guys get it! I've had some backlash due to the scale elsewhere, which, when I'm so passionate about what I do with NL found it a bit disheartening, because it's actually exactly what I had in my head lol. Decided to stay away from them for the time being
Just figured out sometimes...
The Deity tower is taking shape! Bare in mind this is just an early draft without the detailing, but I wanted to show the scale. I know it might be a little unusual to build a 200ft station for a coaster, but I've always loved travelling and looking at places of worship and be in awe of the...
Just wanted to share some progress done by my collaborator (parkscape_design on instagram) who's taken my sketches and concepts and delivered the starts of a beautiful station design. Here I give you the temple of Deity, worshipping speed, height and force =P. Excited to see this come together...
Thank you guys for the support <3 Just recently got my macbook working with NL properly so gone back into it while I work on Infinity. But thought I'd just share this that I managed to capture. Looking back I had no idea how I had the patience to do this layout, esspecially as this was my first...
Ok, done faffing, need to get back to finishing this. I'm now working with someone to get this as the full ride experience I have envisioned. The actual track is complete, so watch this space for updates.
This is a really interesting thing that I thought about before I worked with rides. But honestly from experience and literally sitting at an ops panel monitering how long a ride takes to complete a circuit, this is not a myth at all. Rides definitely run faster in the heat and towards the end of...
Just wanted to show the first layout draft. It DID have a snappy exit to the turn then into a wave hill. This was super ugly imo compared to how it ended up. I did go through 21 drafts though. I do like showing the progress though as I think it's always important to show the thought process...
I kiiiinda get what you mean with the lead into the helix. It's actually more difficult to get that flat section right in FVD, but it also allowed it to lie more flat. I like the break though, it was intentional almost like a "beat" in the pacing. Also after riding Fenix, I actually find the...
Little video of the song that the ride was going to be named after at some point. This is a ride for those of us that would happily hide in a park and find a spot to watch a B&M gracefully glide around all day. And this video is meant to capture that vibe.
I know you love positivity as overly negative forums can be really nasty and I'm a massive backer of Alton and Merlin...
BUT, it looks so cheap! Dark rides have really moved forwards in recently years and this looks like it coulda been built 20 years ago.urgh
