Hi all, I'm new to RCTGo, and I'd like to share a WIP of one of my recent works: Bounty Hunter.
It's a racing rollercoaster of the Hyper Twister Coaster model.

Without further ado, here it is:







So, I'm kind of stuck on what I can do to improve it further - I'm still far from calling it done, but I don't know what to do next (aside from changing the supports, but I still need to learn that to begin with).
Does anyone have any tips?

So, I've finished replacing the supports for Bounty Hunter, here's the result:







And... I feel like I've effectively ruined it.
The sleek and compact design is no more, the supports are everywhere and you can hardly tell the track apart.
Getting the supports even up there was a pain simply because of the compact design. As you can see, I had to use several H4 supports just because the H8 and H12 would intersect with other parts of the track. Wouldn't want my peeps to get a headache now.

What do you all think?
PS. Note: I realize I forgot to add the Flanges, but seeing as it's almost 2 AM now, I don't really feel like doing that either. Flanges postponed to a future update.

i think the problem is that you use a lot of 4H and 8H pieces. you can use vertical supports with an 8H support coming off of it

i wouldnt mind having go at supporting it for you

Hi Super Moose, thanks for the offer.
I'd like to take you up for that, but only if you would support half of it, so that I can "mirror" the other half.
If I get to see an example and have a go at it myself, it would be much more efficient for future coasters than having everything done for me.
I really do appreciate the offer!

Do I need to upload my custom track save file to my profile for you?

yeah, just upload the park file. that way i get the tracks and scenery

Okay, several days later, screenshot time.
I've made some progress, but I'm not entirely happy with how the scenery is turning out.
It's rather hard to build scenery around such a compact coaster, because you actually have to put it around the coaster, and it can't really interact with it either.

Short story that I'm trying to make with this coaster, is that a group of bandits are holding up a town, the Sheriff has his hands full, but then the Bounty Hunter comes along deals with the bandits.

With that said, let's move on to the screenshots, and I'll go about what I feel about them myself after each.
The big picture:
This should give you an idea on what I'm working on, or trying to make. I've picked a dry, rocky and sandy soil texture, because that is what I, as a media manipulated European teenager feel it used to look like back in the old West.


The town:
It's still a bit bare, and the buildings are simplistic at best. I've got a Saloon scenery structure, a bank that doesn't remotely look like one, and a Hotel that could as well be a dog house. Still, it's just (I try to use that word carefully) the side scenery, while you're riding the coaster it'll be the least of your worries. It would be a good way for the peeps to walk around there to immerse themselves into Bounty Hunter's story, though.


The Bandit's hideout:
I used a The Last Outpost scenery structure here, and dressed it up with a few bandits and bisons to make it a bit livelier. The packs of dynamite should add a nice touch to showcase that they are, in fact, the bandits. As you see on the big picture, this hideout is basically set up just outside town, near the train station.


Showcasing the supports and filler scenery
I've been helped on the supports and did the brown ones myself. Once again, Flanges are a project for another time, they're just "finishing touch" details, in my eyes. The filler scenery is basically to give the other side of the coaster something. I really don't know what to do on that side. the backside is filled with most of the important scenery, but this leaves the other side with next-to-nothing.


Catwalks and tiny interactive scenery
I've changed the catwalks from double sided everywhere to left side/right side only. The visual glitch you get from overlapping textures was a pain for me, so the perfectionist that I am had to get rid of it.
I've set up a small showdown between two bandits and a sheriff under the coaster. The intention with this was to showcase that the sheriff does have his hands full, but also to make the story a bit more dynamic.


And that's where I'm up to now. If you have tips, advice, or possible CS sets that would match my theme perfectly and add some variety, I'd love to hear about it.
Thanks for reading and all the help I've been getting so far!

I thought one coaster took a lot of work. But two for a dueling coaster, that takes so much more work and determination. I'm still learning about supports (to be honest) so I don't think I would be the right person for feedback in that area. However, I do like the over-all-design of the coasters and the scenery sets you are using so far. If you are interested, I have some additional custom scenery links I think you would like. If the links don't work let me know. Please keep me updated. Can't wait to see the finish project.
