Thanks!this looks very nice good job! I have nothing to complain about. and I see that you moved your building spot:D
Thanks! I didn't make the chain too tight so the car can go up the lift snoothly, and it does!WOAH. It looks really good! The drop is really smooth. You should probably make that chain lift tighter, so that the train doesn't get stuck on the lift.
Thanks! It would be impossisble to make that ride out of VV!Very nice Eurofighter design! Gotta admit, when I saw the thread name, I thought it was a recreation of Apocalypse in six flags!
Yah...... I wont make a batwing, I just made a dive loop. Ill show it to you right now!don't make a batwing loop as the first element since they're not to high irl make it the third or second element to get a longer layout
Well, update time, got the dive loop, here it is!
Test Vid!
Comment Please!

Thanks! I dont want it to be taller because I want it to be a high speed dive loop. I made it a tiny bit taller but that is it.You should make that a lot taller. The overall shaping is good, and I like the supports, but it should be close to twice the height it is now.
Thanks!Looking good so far, hopefully you will finish this time your project >.<
I wont make a batwing, and yah, I know they are too small. The first inversion I made was a dive loop. Anyways, Thanks!As good as this looks, I personally don't like the look of a batwing on a eurofighter. At least make something else first. A batwing is usually a not-so-tall element. But your shaping is very nice;)
It is not a start of a batwing, it is a dive loop. Anyways, Thanks!Apart from the batwing being too small and a bit uneven, I'd say everything else is good.
Here is a new element to my ride. I guess an inverted top hat. Well, here it is!

Thanks! Actually, the funny thing is it is easier to make twisting track with that spine. Also, the spine looks more like a spine you will see on a gerstauler eurofighter.I think you may want to try a different backbone. It's extremely hard to explain why. with that backbone, you can't really change your shaping all that much, and you have more track-twisting possibilities if you used your drop spine. I like your inverted top hat though!
Thanks!This is a fantastic layout, I did not expect an inverted tophat at all!
Well, I got most of the MCBR done, here its is!

Thanks!With the backbone you use, you can only achieve a certain amount of curve with that spine. There is a limit to how far it will bend the track, unlike your drop spine. And also, that spine will bend your connectors, which then over time, will reduce the connectors ability to snap onto rods and stay there. I just trying to prevent you from having to throw out parts ruined from that spine. But I do like the look of this coaster so far
Update time, I got the drop out of the MCBR, here is what it looks like.
Please comment!

Edit: I really don't think you'll have the speed for a batwing. How fast does the train go through there?

If you want perfect shaping with this spine, i suggest you use only one specific rod. I see in one picture, near the end of the MCBR drop you used a red rod instead of a gray rod for curving your track. Change it to a grey rod and you'll have a nice drop
Remember we said to stop talking about the spine, also, that red rod is used too not make it straight or sharp, you actually are supposed to put the red rod there. Anyways, I changed the spine on that drop to Bballers spine. Just stop talking about the spine already though. Its not helping.
