Trains ain't naked no more.

Nonsense. LIM motors can be used to propel a train vertically. It's not impossible. Infact, far from impossible.

True, but side mounted LIM's can't handle the curved top and bottom. So I still recommend changing it for a chain-lift.

Yes. But if the side mounted lims were to propel the train fast enough, then it would make it over the top no problem.

Looking good bob_3.

That's not the issue.

The issue is the fact that the fins on the side of the cars can't pass through the LIMs unless they're in a straight line, something which they are not at the top of the lift.
 
^Damn, bet me to it. Lucky really...

Anyway, I'm trying to get to grips with Wings 3D. Once you have picked parts of it up it's not too difficult.

It's the complex stuff now...
 
^ I have been thinking about making a Wings3D help thread since so many are starting to use it. With Q&A, a bit of FAQ and maybe some tips.

Would this be appreciated?


I have today asked for help with the cartexture for Project Power, as a step to get it ready asap.
I have a exam in Electro Magnetic Fields before I will start, and after that I have a few days before school starts again.
 
^It certainly would be. I'd like to know a few simple things that I just can't figure out.
 
Proximity: Breach - Another update. 3ds coming along nicely now. Still lots to do, so some textures are missing etc.. Anyway, so here are some new pics and the project page link:

Insane.. those supports on the drop on the left hand side.. way too close... also on that valley right in the bottom center..
 
peely - I'm loving the ride. I really like the 3ds and I think that the helix looks pretty mental. I'm interested to see the finished thing now.

Insane - Apart from the small support issue, which isn't really a biggy, I'm really liking the look of your ride. Especially that s-bend hill.
 
Oooh.

I don't know if it's me, but peely, that immelmann looks mis-shapen, but it might be the angle.

Looks nice and kawasami like Insane :D
 
^I see what you mean about the Immelmann. It may just be the angle, like you said, however it looks to me as if it has been heartlined in some way.
