  • Overview in simulator

  • Two more of whatever you want.
• Remember the coaster limitations
• Be sure to have it done by December 28th, and sent in, to allow me to organize voting.
• Tools are NOT allowed.
• All G-forces must remain with-in the 'yellow' zone.

There may be more rules as questions are asked, but for now I need to know who is going to be entering.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

I am most definitely entering.
One thing: I think that the "Most Unique" and "Most Original" awards could probably be combined since they are so similar.

[Spitfire]

I'll enter.

[Pyro]

I will enter, Nut I really dont understand the "No Taller than 75'" Rule. Why is that? That will make most of our elements small and have al lot of negative G's.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

^ An excellent example of this could be Intimidator305.

[fantom]

Basically a mega-lite comp? Sounds good. If tools are permitted, I'm in.

[TripleHelix]

I might enter. All depends on if I even start it though, lol.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

Are tools permitted? I personally don't think they should, but you decide.

[JPCoaster]

I'm in!

______

[SwimZONE]

No tools are permitted. Read the above reason why.
JPK, and TH are in. Fantom, just tell me if it's still a yes or no through PM.

[Pyro]

Are any inversions allowed?

No thanks. I wouldn't dream of doing this without AHG. Good luck everyone else though.

[< Antinos >]

100% hand made is the way to go for me. I would enter, but I have bigger fish to fry, like a giga coaster

[JPCoaster]

Can we have scenery?? like lake and trees...

[da master826]

I plan on entering, but I will most likely lose.

[Pyro]

Also, Is Custom 3D objects allowed? I have no clue how to do it but I really want to learn.

[nitwilly1]

if i can get my NL to work i will enter.

I wouldn't see why not.

[fantom]

Before in your post you stated the reason for tools not being allowed was that not everybody had tools and/or wanted to download them. 3Ds fall under the same requirements(you need the software, and this costs money unlike tools). Not to say that you should allow tools, but I'd like a better reason after that.

Anim8or Free 3D Animation Software

[SwimZONE]

By tools, I meant mostly the track enhancing ones, like AHG. It isn't going to affect any contests, so it'll be fine.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

I don't really think that 3d objects would affect the ride very much, other than add special details to certain parts of it. Using track-enhancing tools, on the other hand, would make a huge difference, so it would be unfair to use them.

[SwimZONE]

I'm closing openings for this on December first. Be sure to re-read rules before you start.

[< Maxlaam >]

Get me in,

one question does it have to be a hyper or megalite-ish, I see quite a few differences between those two.
