Please post the NL file of your coaster in this thread. To do so, follow these directions:

1. Click "Go Advanced" for the posting options

2. In the text box, post:

• Coaster Name (if applicable)
• Track Length
• Special Element used (be descriptive, but brief)
  
  Optional:
• A succinct description of your ride.

3. When finished, scroll down in the post options, under "Additional Options" and look for "Attach Files". With this option, you can directly upload your raw NL file with your post. If this option doesn't work, you can use alternate methods to post your coaster, however.

4. Post, and judging will begin as soon as you post to get the judging done as quickly, but efficiently as possible!




Here's a more illustrated version of the directions:


Step 1: Type in the information about your coaster.



Step 2: Click "Go Advanced".



Step 3: Scroll down to the "Advanced Options".



Step 4: Once here, find "Attach Files" and select the upload.


Step 5: For the NL File directly, click on "Choose File" and select the NL Coaster/Pack and click the upload to the right of the screen. For those who want to go through an upload-website, you can paste the URL into the URL boxes below, then click the upload to the right of that.



Step 6: Don't forget to preview your post so you know your coaster has been successfully attached to the post.

So here is my entry.

Coaster Name: Mission To mars
Track Length: 1063,59
Special Element used: 1st Drop and 2nd Air hill with banking

And I have made a video.

[Unendingride]

I did all the steps, but when I'm in editor and I upload a file, there is a lock above the icon and it won't appear when I want to upload it. How do I fix this?

[LaMbChOpZ]

^ Your file could be too big. I'll send you my email and I'll try it for you.

[Unendingride]

Oh, I know how to upload it. Nolimits is the problem. When I got to load it, there is a lock sign on it. When I go to uplaod it, all the ones with locks on it can't get uploaded online.

[jespercoasters]

^ I had the same problem save it somewhere in my lybaries and it should work.

[Unendingride]

Here we go:

Name: Fire Pit
Length: about 3900 ft.
Height: about 150 ft.
Lift Element: Horseshoe lift (invented by me)
Special Element(s): Stengal Dive, Pretzel turn

[IonZer0]

Sorry, not going to be able to finish... just take me off the list.

[A.S.C.]

Same here.
That's what I get for going all out on scenery.

1. prometheus
2. 3267.46 feet
3. direction changing 150 foot first drop,a winding 85 degree turn after the first drop

Optional:
4. this is a ride that will blow your mind with tons of twisting turns and daring drops. you may think twice while at the top of the lift hill. the feeling of no supports below you gives riders the real feeling of floating on gravity

here is the video:

Nice drop you got there......

I'm having some troubles, I had to use Anim8or to correct the shading on my station, but it loses my textures (especially that badass sign I made )

Here's what it looks like in NL:

Here's the sign:


Just keep it in mind when you mark the ride.

[LaMbChOpZ]

Yeah, that drop looks very, very similar to yours....

I WILL BE POSTING THE VIDEO SOON! IT IS TAKING 258 MINUTES TO UPLOAD TO YOUTUBE, BUT AS SOON AS IT IS DONE, I WILL POST IT HERE!

That's fine, just edit the video into your post.

We will. If anyone else has this problem, feel free to post it as well. Don't forget to upload a video (or the raw file) to your post! In the video, if you choose to do one, you can point out and show key parts of the ride/scenery you'd like to show us.



Deadline is in less than 9 hours unless extension is needed. If less than half of the coasters aren't posted by the deadline, there will be an extension of 3 days, to allow for the stragglers () to get their rides in. I will be going away for the weekend, so I won't be able to check anything until June 3rd. My fellow judge and I will try to get your scores compiled and posted before June 14th (2 weeks after deadline). Best of luck, and get those coasters in and PM me if you are going to drop out instead of posting in this thread (along with any other questions you have regarding deadline, etc)

[sonicriders789]

Nice drop you got there......

yeah i realized that when i watched your video. trust me, i didnt copy your drop. i actually finished the coaster about 2 weeks ago. i just altered the ride to work for the contest. you can even look in hte no limits thread and look at "halo" by Sonicriders789 to see that it is just different colors and that it is the same ride as the one i posted for this contest. trust me, i didnt copy you. i said the same thing when i saw your video.

[RideOnKI]

I would enter my I305 recreation if it complies with the rules, but it's nowhere near close to done.

[Britfag]

Hey LaMbChOpZ, I am not at home now, but my home has lost its internet connection until monday, unfortunately, the supports arent done, and I am not going to be able to finish them until monday.
I dont think it's fair to extend for just one entrant, so I expect to be dropping out.

I will be posting the ride anyway, just monday/tuesday, it'd be nice if you guys took a look at it anyways (I havent made NL for ages, and y'know, criticism is helpful! )

[LaMbChOpZ]

^ No don't quit. I don't even have half the entries yet, so I will allow a 1 week extension, but we can't push much farther.


The new deadline is June 11th, 2012.

[sonicriders789]

Is it ok if i add supports to my ride then re enter it? It wasn't supposed to have supports because it is in space so i thought it would be cool kinda like a gravity thing but i have decided that i want them

[LaMbChOpZ]

^ Up to you. If there's a reason why there's no supports, then you can explain it. If there's no supports and no explanation why, then there might be a really really small deduction (maybe 5 points, max).

[Britfag]

Okay, I was only saying that if you can't extend I cant compete!
I'll get it done asap
