Help with basic scenery and path design. - Corkscrew - Nov 5, 2012

If anyone is really good at designing parks with scenery and good at making the paths looks real tight, can you help me? Thank you! Smile

^ It doesn't tell me how to Custom Support but thanks though. =D

I'll just tell you in a single post. First, add vertical bars about five tiles away from each other down the whole track. Leave a "1h" amount of space in between the support and the track for the support connector. In the space you have left, put a 1h bar at the angle of the track slope and the color of the track. Now add diagonal A-frame and V-frame supports along the track. Use mostly supports in this shape: /| or |\. To take away some more boring, use really creative supports from time to time and when you come along a place where your support intersects with the track, don't be afraid to try something different. I really experimented with one of the supports in The Old Mill.

There are some great tutorials on youtube for supporting wood, and steel coasters, but remember that every coaster type has a different support job. Like the support job on a B&M Wingrider is different than an Intamin Wingrider. The support job for a B&M Invert is different than a Vekoma SLC. Also if you're doing a clone type, look at photos of a real coaster of that type to look at the support angles, and placement.
