G'day,

Yesterday i just found out

that there was a NoLimits Mac version out, I was wondering if it helps the people on

these forums to plan their new models that they are making out of Knex.

Also i was wondering if it was a good spend of money, today I have recieved some

money which could pay for it but i'm still not sure

I tried it out and

the graphics look rad, even though there are only like 5 tracks you can choose from, i

already have thought of new things i could do with knex.

post your

thoughts

Have a Merry Christmas and a Great New Year

Carlo

There is a mac version of NL? I went to the site a

while ago and I thought it said that there was going to be a mac version but they gave

up because it was too hard. I sure hope there is a mac version because my PC sucks

and the NL demo wouldn't work. My mac definately could handle it.

You can use the program Virtual PC to plat Windows

games on the Mac. I used ot have it but we got a PC. I got bored with RCT2 and

how it is not very customizable in terms of coasters. The pre-made elements get

boring and recreations are hard.

I have been making Knex coasters in NoLimits for a

very long time, almost every coaster that i release in Knex is available in

NoLimits......

Its a great buy, the editor is a little hard to understand at first,

but its great, I love it....

I was just checking out the demo and it seems that the

editor will take some getting used to but it looks like a lot of fun. Are there any limits

though like how high your coaster can go? Do you have to include adequate supports?

What if you only have a few supports so that relistically the ride couldn't stand?

I'm just curious.

What OS version do you have. It only supports Mac

OS X 2.0 or later I think.

You gotta place vertex things and ground blocks.

You gotta click and drag from each vertex.

Well, its hard to explain how to make custom

supports, but to make prefab, you click on the supports buttons (should be pretty

evident where they are) and then just click on the track..... before you try to make

your own coasters, be sure to read the help file that comes with it, its very informative

as to what everything in NL does.....
