I'm building a looper that will have one Immelman, one corkscrew and one heartline roll.

The crest is a little uneven, and the pullout of the Immelman has a sharp spot, and it wouldn't hurt to add more crossties. I want to see what's next, so please continue.

^Yup yup mmhm. Follow that advice. Also, can you make your pics smaller, they take forever to load, and lag up the screen.

Plus, the Stengel dive (Gump please do not bash me if it isn't a stengel dive!) needs some flexies.

I don't know how will I fix the crest but i'm going back to that part. Thanks

Ok. Thanks

Did you bash BlackKitty

^ haha lol

No it ain't gonna be a corkscrew, Lol!
BTW thanks.

UPDATE:

I've lowered the pullout of the Immelman and remove the Stengel Dive(Blah blah blah I don't know what that element is, please don't be mad at my lack of roller coaster intelligence)

I am being honest, it looks alright, the drop looks nice, the Immelmann looks small but nice, and the turn looks alright
only thing is, I can see you're using one of the bottom connectors that would usually have a Flexible rod in, to hold the corner in place. Put a flexible rod through the circular holes in the middle to compensate for lack of flexi on those crossties (it's the last 4 or so)

To be honest, I liked the previous one. But if you must keep this, the supports on the pullout are extremely weak.

Automation is my specialty
 

If only I had more space/pieces/time.

I read it so I am posting but I do have a issue (but not on topic really). It is about your title, I used to do a title like this then this thread came up. I would advise you to read it because it helps.

I don't really understand what you're sayin, please don't be mad.
Anyways Thanks.

It does move like .125 inches, I put a support beam at the back of the support. Thanks.

It's alright that you didn't get my last post, and that wouldn't have made me angry xD

That corkscrew support looks awesome, can we get a picture looking through the cork, sort of like this:
http://upload.wikime...rkscrew1_CP.JPG
Because you can see any bumps on a corkscrew from that view.
I like it :)

I've changed the corkscrew to a overbanked turn and i'm not following the original layout.

Nice corkscrew support. You asked to be harsh, so I'll do my best to be so. First off, the turn looks very weak, so try to strengthen it some more. You should also try to connect track mainly via flexi-rods, to be able to have stronger track. The transition from the turn into the corkscrew is also bumpy, so you need to smoothen it out. Do you think you could also get a picture going diagonally through the corkscrew, because you don't have one like this atm, and it needs to be a circle when looking though at a 45* angle. The immelman looks very good though, and the cork looks good from the pictures you have. Good work.
Thanks for shortening the name also.

Edit* Forget everything I said about the corkscrew, now that you removed it.

I couldn't make the layout with the corkscrew and the heartline roll even better, if I still include those elements my speed isn't enough.
Anyways thanks for commenting.

1.The turn does shake but it is very minimal
2.Ok
3.The transition is really bumpy, i'm gonna fix it
4.Thanks for sharing your opinion.

looks good,
but don't get to far away from your lift! you might get out of speed!

p.s. your orange connector at the top of the overbanked looks ugly

20 pictures. That is a lot for just an overbank. Anyways, I really like the flow of this, just make the overbank about a yellow skinnier, and it will be perfect. If that doesn't work, then make it a hammerhead.
