I'm a bit tired after 3hrs of work on it, so I'll take a little break, here's the pic:



Much more stuff to be added like doors, painted walls, train, water reflections and more.

Good night for now...

Reaching out to embrace the random.
Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.

I embrace my desire
to swing on the spiral of our divinity
and still be a human.

This is looking good so far. Looks to me as if its from Rollercoaster tycoon or one of those many tycoon games.

haha, exactly what I was thinking. Add some coasters in and a ferris wheel or instead a city or something... just looks a lil dull without anything. Also, mnaybe you could animate the train coming out or something and stopping at a station... dunno. Just some ideas.

This would look really sweet if you could see the little mini coaster rolling around the track.

(BTW... edited your thread title so you don't look like a moron for spelling "The" wrong)

"Spaz" .. that's a word not used often enough.

Thanx for the memories, spaz.

I think the train part is moving way to fast. Make it go faster on the downhill parts and slower on the uphill parts. Also, you should make a station for it to stop at. I would also make the coaster longer and more interesting. Right now it is kinda dull.

The clouds look great. Nice job on those.

Looks great. The door blending in with the bg works well.

The speedy train reminds me of the Monorail Simpsons episode.

Changed your thread title from "The Rollercoaster Room- Final edit" to "The Train Room - Final Edit" so peeps don't think you're a moron for thinking a rollercoaster is the same as a train. Why it ever got changed from "The Choo-choo Room" to begin with is beyond me... made me think of little Ralph Wiggum ... "You choo-choo-choose me!!"

Gee, thanks pixelblink.
Actually, my first idea was to make a small train moving around the room, with a locomotive creating smoke puffs around it, but then I got bored with it and decided to make a roller coaster instead. But who the hell cares about the name right? From now on the rooms I make will be named joint 3, joint 4, and so on, to avoid further confusion.

Slowing down the animation makes it look choppy, maybe I'll add a few more frames to it later.

If it's a roller coaster you should make it larger and include a loop and a station. Unless you want to "pretend" the stations underground. ;)
