I just have one picture so far, and it is for the lift. I'm using blue rods because I have more of those than I do of yellow or granite, plus it just looks cooler IMO.
Well, here it is:

Oh, you're making it tube supported? That's gonna be a bit difficult.
it'll look better though

Nobody's ever done this coaster tube-support style for some reason.Oh, you're making it tube supported? That's gonna be a bit difficult.
Thanks! We'll see about that, haha.Good luck, the speed wi be hard to keep. I know as I have recreated this also.
Thanks, your honor.i have recreated this ride last year at the time. It was hard with box supports, my trains were running great, until the ran like crap and never made the immillemen properly/ I still need to finish the final video, but I not feeling it, and I'm to lazy to do it! Good luck on this!
The track is going to be supported like crazy. It shouldn't shake AT ALL actually.It'll also shake more
Thanks, your honor!nice! the lift looks amazing! make a nice recre!
I'll do it better than 'right'.not if he does it right
Thanks for the comments! From last time, I've finished the lift and made the holding brake. Here are pictures.

Comment! Criticize!
Awww, nobody commented .
At least there is now an update!
UPDATE.
From last time, I have got all the way to the drop. I know about the support in the middle, that is a temporary support. It will be replaced with an upside down V support. I don't have a video, only pictures, and I'm still trying to fix the brakerun. I believe the pullout is in proportion to the ride?
Here is the curve. If you ask me to, extra X-ties will be added.
An overview of the ride so far.
I will try to work on the automatic station gates today. I will be using RWT's tutorial, should I shorten it so that there is only 3 gates instead of 5? Or should I leave it as is? Since I'm working on the station, can someone get pictures of the interior and exterior of the station please? Especially interior. Also, can someone find/take pictures of the que line and the exit path?
That is all! Give me comments or give me criticizes!

Also, don't double post. It will get you less comments and backfire on your thread.

I hate to be rude, but I can't see a thing.
Well you can see it, But please have better lighting next time. I think that will make it easier to see

Blame the camera! For some reason, it can't take pictures during the day.I hate to be rude, but I can't see a thing.
Fixed it! Although I forgot to take pictures of it .Yeah the pullout is but not the transaction from holding brake to drop that is a big no-no. The pullin to the drop needs to bee bigger like this.

Oh OK thanks for the tip! I fixed the curve.The holding brake curve is way too small.

Update! A small update, but an important part of the ride is pretty much done: the station. It has automatic gates, and well, I'll let these do all the talking:
And here is a video, I'll try and get it to be timed better, but it is the general idea of what I'm trying to do here.
Give me comments or give me criticizes!
That's all for now.

I need help on this. Sorry if you thought it was an update, I just need help. I was looking at cg987's thread and so some of the comments are saying the pre-drop curve leading into the holding brake wasn't turning to 180ยบ, so if it isn't then what degree is it? Can someone please draw like a shape of that curve? Also, could someone draw me the layout from an aerial view? (I know the layout, but not where things go) Help is appreciated!
Why don't you study the coaster itself? Draw your own pictures instead of having other people draw you pictures.
I have been studying it for months, it's just that I need a view from up in the air, so that I know where everything goes, this way I'm doing it right. I have been drawing pictures, but I'm troubled with the uprising curve into the MCBR. I know it's at an angle, but I don't know what angle it is. Sorry. I don't like asking help from members, not that they don't give good help or anything, they do, it's just that I don't like having other members have to take some time off their schedule just so I can get a helpful picture of the ride that only benefits me and not them. I really wouldn't ask AT ALL unless I really needed it. Sorry if I sound stubborn and I'm not listening to a word you're saying.
