First Look: Ultimate Coaster X
Vložit
- čas přidán 25. 08. 2024
- Ultimate Coaster X is a new (free!) roller coaster simulator that doesn't quite measure up to the depth of games like NoLimits 2 or Planet Coaster, but for a game made by one person as a Java excercise, it's very impressive, and it has one of the most well-developed coaster builders I've ever seen. This video serves as a introduction/review/timelapse build to the game.
If you're interested, you can pick it up here:

The framerate drops on the POV are not the game's fault, that's me not knowing how to properly record things. The game has been running smooth so far.

Thanks Silv for doing this video! I'm glad you enjoyed your experience with my game, and hope you find that the experience only gets better with upcoming updates! The community has been incredibly helpful and constructive for me so far ( :
Awesome job! Out of curiousity, have you used a framework or have you build this from scratch? Because doing this in Java is amazing. Nice sound quality as well, sounds as if you are on a real coaster.
Also, some small idea, I loved the ability to be able to controll my coaster in No Limits. Food for thought? :)
@@KennethDC1337 Yes! I used the framework libGDX (i am quite a fan of it!) and yes, I think a control system would be great to add ( :
Of course! Thank you for an amazing game, and one that's free to boot. I'm very impressed with it so far!
Nice game, want to see what it will look like in the future considering this game is already good as is !!!
Awesome 1 man job. Glad to see coaster fan helping other coaster fans off the monopoly of Frontier. CRUSH THEM money-junkies.
Very nice coaster builder, really hope you succeed in turning this into a full game, maybe even themed park game.
That coaster is more smoother than any coaster that I ever made in planet coaster
Same here!
@@Silvarret exept for the lifthill.
I've noticed that Ultimate Coaster X makes the track SOOOOOOOO Smooth for some reason
Made by one person and is still better than roller coaster tycoon adventure and world
Throw Rollercoaster Tycoon 3DS and Rollercoaster Tycoon 4M in there too, for good measure.
Silvarret haven’t seen them and I don’t want to, I like my eyes very much
@@LiamLizard-nl1rv Forgot Rollercoaster Tycoon Touch, too :)
Silvarret ouch sadly I saw that one
And RollerCoaster Tycoon Joyride on PS4's PSVR (there is no reason it should be given the title RollerCoaster Tycoon when it's not a Tycoon game).
...I would not be opposed to seeing a couple more vids on this, especially with more updates! Given what you can achieve in PlanCo, it would be awesome to see what kind of coasters you could create with this builder.
I like the coaster builder in this. Looks much easier to make a smooth coaster here without having to resort to unorthodox and tedious methods like in Planet Coaster.
15:29 HE SAID A NAUGHTY WORD
Oooooooooh! :O
💸
PG13 grants me one naughty word per video. Every once in a while shouldn't be that bad, I'm not too worried about demonitization.
@@Silvarret can we try for two naughty words next video
@@KevinSiebert I won't push for it because I don't like swearing a lot, but if you think about it, "weenie" is a pretty naughty word that I say quite often.
the reason why the supports get more dense towards the bottom of a drop or on tight turns is because of the forces of the train pushing on the track. because the G-forces are greater in those situations the force exerted on the track by the train is greater.
i would definitely suggest this to people trying to learn NL2 seems like a great learner to give people the basic understanding of how NL2 works
VR support...
Free...
Yep, sign me up. XD
... Though I need to set up all my VR stuff again.
Also my main PC is currently out of commission and the backup is 13 years old and is barely coping with playing youtube videos at this point, much less trying to run a VR setup.
(Though ironically I did just that when I first got my hands on the original rift dev kit.)
This simple spline system should have been the way you build coasters in planet coaster.
Its the best way to get a smooth track and to implement continuous roll.
I hope for PlanCo2 after Planet Zoo with a better Coaster Builder.
This looks very promising. It's already got a better lineup of coasters than many programs already out there, and it's only early access. Also the auto-smooth feature is really cool. I'm hoping this eventually becomes a full game with park-building options.
My wishes came true, more realistic than planet coaster but simpler coaster builder tool. YAAAS
The audio sounds really great!
It looks like the original no limits.
Needs a crashing animation
This is how I wish planco was. I like how no limits does it but it's so complicated and I dont want to spend the time to learn it. This seems like a nice mix between planco and nl2.
Actually this guy should be hired by Parcitact or something. This coaster builder looks amazing!
After a long break from RCT3 and a bit of struggle for me getting into Planet Coaster, I can't wait to test this. This looks to have enormous potential. Thanks for the showcase, Silv!
Great job on the video though!
If you're really into coasters you should just buy No lImits 2. It's actually quite easy once you get the hand of it and is by far the most realisctic compared to any other "game" currently available.
Looks crazy good
This looks awesome, honestly, at least for what it is. I really like the coaster builder system, I don't think I've seen anything quite like this before, and there have been quite a few coaster builders before this. Thanks for spreading the word, I wouldn't have known about this game otherwise.
That definitely looks promising :) Hopefully we get to see some awesome rides from you in this game as well :)
I cant tell if its there, but a No Lateral Forces button for banking would be nice. Also maybe a station building.
This is to simulate real life physics not so much as decoration the creator of this said. He created this to realistically simulate real roller coaster rides.
Reminds me a lot of the first NoLimits program this, shows a lot of potential
Wow! One person made that! I take my hat off to he or she who made it. It looks pretty good and runs really well. I see what you mean that it still has room to grow, but it looks really stable. I hope this person keeps working on it. Since you've reviewed it I'm sure a lot more people are going to check it out.
Mom can we have no limits 2? No we have no limits 2 at home. No limits 2 at home:
I also want to say this looks like a great game and it is very impressive that only 1 person made it.
It reminds me a lot of Aircoaster for the iphone
This actually looks the exact same as rct 3 graphic wise
Nice vid! Love the smooth coaster ride. :)
harder than i thought man
If only Planet Coaster can have a coaster builder like this...
What makes this better than planet coaster may I ask? Also is this free?
Salvage Productions This game is free and I didn’t say it’s better than Planet Coaster. I think the coaster builder is better than the one in Planet Coaster.
@@808CoasterLife Ok so everything is free for ultimate coaster x? Does it have programmable lights, because that's what I'm looking for. And this looks more realistic than planet coaster.
Salvage Productions I’m not sure about it having programmable lights and everything being free but I do remember Silvarret saying it’s free.
@@808CoasterLife But the owner released a video of pragamable lights?
Almost looks like no limits in a way ,but I’ll try it, because it looks pretty solid. Nice vid and introduction on this game
A part of me was kinda hoping that this was going to be a sequel to the one made by the Disney Imagineers.
Looks really good! Might get it over the weekend
I'm curious as to what turned you away from No Limits. I know it can be overwhelming when you load it up for the first few times, but within a few weeks of playing I'm sure somebody like you could make some incredible things. There are also many videos on youtube that could help you figure it out.
I was considering no limits 2 but this ui is much easier to understand
Looks promising, I think it might get into a great final product, but the problem its just one guy developing this, so it might take a while
Definitely off ti a good start
Please make more videos on this!
Please do more!
It’s crazy that this game is free
Hey silv, I loved this video and I’m gonna get the game myself. Please make more videos 😃
Honestly, this is better because it is basically no limits 2, but simple. Honestly, i'm not good with planet coaster especially because the rides can be smooth but sometimes they will have choppy banks.
Don’t get me wrong
I live videos like this and parketect
But I would love to see you back in planet coaster and with all the new things that have come into the game since you last played
It would be great to see you do a realistic park in planco like you did with koali beach
I hope you take my advice and I think a tone of people would agree with me
Give this man a job at RCT
ive been playing the mobile version (android) for a while as a great simulator for on the go.
Impressive.
Looks intuitive and "easy" to build in.
In a weird way, this sim actually reminds me a lot of Scream Machines! I wonder if anybody else remembers that one...
Wow, that’s such a good game! I am gonna install it!
Would be so cool if you could export coaster layouts from NoLimits 2 and this game to Planet Coaster. I wonder if that would even be possible?
Actually, thecodemaster already exported coasters from NL2 to UCX. Unfortunately getting them to PlanCo is practically impossible though as far as I'm aware.
seeing an awesome, free, one man project that is this good and polished along with a dev that's really open, active and receptive makes me sooo moist
On a serious note (which may annoy people) but please consider putting a price on the full release if that's possible. Even if it's only 10 or 15 . I don't think it would be unreasonable and I reckon people would pay it. Maybe release a full demo version that restricts some features, then a paid full release that unlocks the rest. You definitely deserve it
Ever going to complete your series in Planet Coaster or just making anything new in Planet Coaster? Just curious.
If Planet Coaster's builder was like this, I'd actually play it.
Just curious, what screen recorder do you use because every time I try to record, It looks ok but in game while recording, it looks really good
Hoi lekker bezig man
Of course there's a number of things which, you know, would be much better which I would take the time to do if I gave enough of a fuck to improve this layout, but
~Silv 2019
I'm no engineer (working on it lol) but I would guess more supports in valleys because of the added weight of the G-forces working on the train and the track
Underrated game
L2MOH does it load up for you?
4golive _ havent downloaded it yet
Way better coaster builder than Planet Coaster, pretty smooth!
Mateo theres also a planet coaster style editor ( but smoother ) on mobile
Nice Video!
Can you get this for Mac? I have a 2011 MacBook Pro so I can’t run bootcamp and get windows. If someone could help because I want to play this sooooooo much. I play RCT3 and the iPad ultimate coaster all the time. Pleeeeeease.
This impressive for a free coaster simulation game, it features more than what Planet Coaster offers
i wish Frontier Dev. would look at this game as a reference to improve for PlanCo2
I spent more hours building coasters than i did in PlanCo, that tells you PlanCo2 needs improvement, Yes I do still love PlanCo
but this game offers a bunch but i prefer No Limits 2 over this, even tho if you cant afford No Limits, Ultimate Coaster X is the way to go building realistic coasters, I honestly think Frontier Dev was aiming towards thrillville style, but again i think Frontier Dev should take PlanCo2 to the next level and make it realistic as No Limits and Ultimate Coaster X into one game but keep the same concept as the 1st PlanCo game but have more DLC's like adding water parks, imagine PlanCo2 looks better than No Limits 2 with better options and features
Ok Imma shut up now so you can continuing scrolling to the next comment
Woah.
For me, holding z isn't working to make the control points align
I guess valleys would require a lot of support because those are where the coaster has a lot of kinetic energy (speed), and all g-forces that a guest experiences in for example a tight corner have to be countered by an adequate reinforcement. Depends on the coaster though I think. If a coaster somehow creates extreme forces in a high place, it's even worse because the lever is so long. Or the supports there just have to be thicker and with fitting angles.
Speed doesn't matter, only g-forces do. A high section should also need a bunch of supports for stability, but what usually happen is that engineers create an arc so the track kinda support itself. And it is usually sections of track with little to no g-forces (0g) - although I assume they are designed to be able to hold the train weight in case of a stall.
@@KingRCT3 I knew someone would note that speed alone doesn't do much, which is why I specifically mentioned g-forces resulting from high speed cornering. I guess I didn't build the bridge clearly enough.
Looks nice!
Looks pretty cool, but I think I’ll just still with NL2 for now.
How did you get the option to click on the space in between segments? I’m trying to get a starting point and it’s not working
When I click away it does not show the actual track it still shows the lines
Make more Ultimate Coaster X Videos!!!!
I wish they would make it available for mac
Hello! Im just wondering how you can select the division in segments, because i am having trouble with that.
Thanks to anyone who responds ))
Ok I’m gonna get it
Hopefully it will have smooth coasters and not motion-sickness max 20fps like Planet Coaster
anyone else having trouble riding the coaster? whenever I click on "ride" it doesnt work and nothing happens
I only have the cyan line can you help? Great video btw!
When I hold shift I can’t bring it up! I don’t know what is going on but it’s getting real annoying
Hello I an't open my creations in my folders, when I try to open it, it doesn't work !
a little help ?
It's a good game but when I go to Vr mode a menu opens up and it can't be closed. I play on Oculus I don't know if that affects it
how do you like switch the track to chain lift and station and stuff
I miss jagerhorn and your japanese park bro :(
Is this available for Mac OS or just Windows?
Vr support welp downloading it now
You should try building something in No Limits 2. This game has a big potential. : D
I've had it for years now, but to tell you the truth, I'm just not good enough at it to make any videos of it, I think.
@@Silvarret Give it a try. You never know : D
Do you know if this game has been discontinued? The dev might have stopped to work on mobile.. any news??
Looks rly good.
Too bad I can’t even build a coaster in it since my computer’s the equivalent of a potato.
This game runs really well, you should try it!
Maybe once I get a better PC. Although I’ve heard that the mobile version is better, but it has microtransactions.
I have this on mobile, it is in the app store. But mobile the graphics suck, a lot of bugs, only 4 track types, and it would crash every few minutes. So glad this is on pc.
Is it on apple I really want it it’s my fav game I hope it really is keep these vids up pls respond to this comment I really want to know or will it come on apple soon than Vr
11:28 wonder what that looks like :)
didn't this start as a app on the google play store called ultimate coaster
Yup, this is basically the PC port.
really gooode
When the mobile game comes out before the PC one XD
What happened to jägerhorn?
That's up next, actually!
As for what happened - I forgot to save progress on the last episode, lost motivation. I've just been getting back into it recently.
God, i am sorry to hear that! The worst nightmare for creators :( But i am so pleased to hear you are going to continue it, i am actually hooked to that series, and sometimes i get in youtube just to look for any new episode of it. How could not anyone? It's simply incredible all the effort you are putting onto it.
Btw, did you do anything related to the track transfer building? Or it remains just like we saw in the previous video, when you first built it?
Hold up, maybe the next video might also be the long-awaited Parkitect coaster tutorial. I'll see whichever I finish first. Anyway, I'm ready to start recording the new Jägerhorn video.
I haven't done anything with the transfer track! Not sure if I will, I built it all wrong but I doubt there's space to actually fix it.
Just wondering.... Would it be crazy to rebuild a new set of transfer tracks, instead of rebuilding the whole building around them? Like, you did your tricks to build those transfer tracks to begin with. I certainly have no idea how hard it could be to build them again, because i ignore if the colission tool would mess up, or there is no space between the transfer tracks and the station. I don't know, but still is a minor thing to worry about. The whole project really deserves a whole lot of atention. Simply astonishing. Amazing. Wonderful. Je t'adore.
How to download it please teach me
Is it released to quest 2 vr set?
Can it do launch coasters?
Will this ever come to Mac??
I know it's in beta, but I'm sticking with Planet Coaster.
He wasnt at all saying it was a replacement. Just that it was good. I think it could be good for coaster designers if they wanted to make something quick. No limits is slow, and planet coaster is not smooth. This is the best of both worlds.
I think so far there's a niche for all these roller coaster simulation games, and they don't necessarily compete with each other. Planet Coaster is great for making theme parks, Parkitect is more gameplay-focused and like the original RCT's, and this game is only good for quickly making decent layouts and riding them - though it excels at that! If this game's target audience overlaps with anything, it's probably NoLimits.
@@Silvarret it does resembles No Limits a lot, but then again it might become a really good coaster game!
@@kimjunguny Planet Coaster coasters can be smooth if you take time to smooth each coaster after you create them
@@jroc2k Nope the transition are not smooth and everyone knows this. No matter if you use 4m smoothing or the smoothing tool for days there is still a jerk in the camera. This game has none of that.
Anyone have the Android app?
the first part of that coaster is i305 lol
well, i already bought nolimits2 ^^
It's free
I think that's still worth it, NL2 is made by a team of developers over a time span of 8 years I believe - it's much more in-depth.
@@rubrixie7340 yeah i know, but i´m very used to nolimits2 by now, will still take a look at it but will probably stay with nolimits since it just isn´t hard anymore to build something in NL, at least for me, so the point of ultimate coaster being easier to use just isn´t a selling point for me :D
