Alpine Bellum - Wooden Coaster (Update 1: WIP)

#1
Hello, my friends!

I am making a new wooden coaster because with the buying of a new computer, I lost my GCI I was working on Frown

Anyways, I have added the station, coaster (obviously), and supports. High Definition Picture time!

^Some of the supports glitched and disappeared in this photo.

Anyways, thanks for looking at this! Feedback incoming hopefully.
I need a new signature.

Not that bad, but if this is suposed to be a "GCI" Woodie, than the whole layout needs a decent amount of rework. In this case it wasn't so smart to start custom support work.

Currently the layout hasn't any pacing/flow in my eyes. Steep first drop, a spikey first airtime hill, another smaller airtime hill (that is good) than the turnaround, but everything build in a row.
Not really interesting for the guests i would say.
And the same happens, after the turnaround, three time bunny hops, all in a row. Nothing special.

Woodie's are the grandfather/mother of coasters, so they should be fast, rough and interesting and also a good looking overall.
And if you build custom supports anyway, than maybe you should think about to use the "Wodan-CT" from the PEP-Team. So you have more variety of track parts to build the layout more interesting.

Also you can use this "How to build a GCI" tutorial for some helpul hints.
It's made for RCT2, but all these techniques can be also used with RCT3.
Because the basics are the same.

But thats only my thoughts about it.

So long, Cobra

To start, this isn't a GCI Woodie. I said in the beginning that I had another GCI that I lost. But otherwise thanks for the comments.
