How do you make Interlocking Corkscrews? - aecrouch2016 - Oct 31, 2015

I haven't been able to find a good tutorial on how to make interlocking corkscrews for B&M tracks. I am looking for a step by step process. Silvarrets How to make a Realistic Coaster tutorial series doesn't really cover that. The in game (even the larger corkscrews) seem so rough. So it would be appreciated if someone could make this tutorial or share a link to one they would recommend.
Thanks in advance.

    The corkscrews probably seem rough because your coaster is entering them at too fast a speed. Try slowing them down a bit (MCBR's do that well). The best example I can think of for interlocking corks off the top of my head is probably Medusa (Six Flags Great America I think.... not sure) I know it is featured in RCT2 and since both games use the same grid and the floorless coaster has relatively the same pieces it is easy to transfer it between the two.

If I can get a picture of my current project's corks without showing much I'll post a pic [EDIT] I tried adding the picture and it is really small, not sure why. That's how I make 'em though.

Ok thanks Maverick! I've never been and only know the Six Flags coasters from what I've heard

I may actually do a tutorial about this in a bit, it can be done relatively quickly Smile
