  • Ever thought of becoming a rollercoaster designer? So have i. After meeting one a few years back, the legend that is John Wardley who has designed rides for Alton Towers, Thorpe Park and more, i asked him what the best way into the coaster design industry was, and he replied to first learn No Limits 2. So that's what im going to do today. Watch as i (horrendously) build a rollercoaster using a professional software, for the first time.

    I hope you're going to make more yt content on nolimits2 since it's really fun to see you use it. Also, i recommend watching a few tutorials on more advanced parts of NL2 first so you really know what every different tool does. I also did the same thing and became pretty decent at building coasters

    Pro tip: straight track is easy, click twice on those blue orbs and select the strict option. Do that for the next blue orb as well and the track between those 2 orbs is perfectly straight. As mentioned earlier, select heartline on the trains tab in the coaster settings.

    No limits is so hard at first but with practice you can make rides so much better than planet coaster if you do use it again I'd recommended using quad view when building

    The fact that Wardley himself suggested Nolimits 2 is absolutely amazing. You should definitely learn how to use FVD++ to design even more realistic coasters in the simulation.

      @DigitalDan It's bassicly a 3rd party software that calculates the way the track should he shaped tor you. However, it's absolutely not nessesary. I hand build and get the same results

    • @Gliese710_
      @Gliese710_ Před rokem +1

      @digitaldan you input the forces you want the ride to pull and then it designs the track around that, you can then export and import the track into nl2 and it’s almost perfect with very little smoothing/editing. It’s harder to learn than nl2 imo but im also smooth brain.

  • @capyybaraa

    Hey Dan. When making the ride use Heartline with the car height to make the turns more smoother/flow. Also learn to use FVD+

    Don't worry about the first 10, 20, 30 rides not being great, but keep doing it until you find your style and method and also, what really helped was posting in the NL community and ask for feedback and you'll improve each new ride!

    when your track banks on launches, brakes, etc, use the roll feature and just leave it on 0. it keeps it strict, or just make it strict.

    Two tools you *really* need to use:
    "Strict" nodes: Double click a node, and set it to "strict". If two adjacent nodes are strict, then the gap between them is perfectly straight.
    "Depump Verticies": Highlight an area of track, and under the Element tab select Depump Verticies. This will modify the selected track to make it nice and smooth, removing the janky transitions in your current coaster.
