i love how the coaster dives under itself all the way to ground level and does the third inversion. It seems that there is a lot of kinetic energy left where this simulation ends, so there will probably be room for a fourth inversion, hopefully a zero G stall :D
The layout is roughly a triangle, the third inversion ends along one of the triangle axes. I disagree, an inclined helix has plenty of room in the center of this layout which is entirely open and right where this inversion is ending. But, I don't think a helix will be added, but I do think one could.
CaRoLiNaFuRy325 It won't be a wooden coaster anymore since the track will be Steel, but will break all those for hybrid coasters. Probably longest as well.
CaRoLiNaFuRy325 Lightning Rod actually has wooden track, this does not. Six Flags considers all of theirs hybrids (except Goliath) so this will be as well
Can I ask you some No Limits questions? How are you getting the transport wheels to be horizontal w/the safety bar over them? Is this a coaster type I am overlooking or a detailed object from cdemstr? Do you build in metric or imperial? I typically build in imperial and then just convert the length measurement to metric for the crossbeams and connectors. However, the connectors in metric or imperial never match up correctly, especially on banked turns. This happens to me even if I build the coaster in metric from the start. Whenever I add the lift object and associated triggers at the beginning and end of the lift, the zero car on all the trains stops working. Have you heard of this problem?
1. The transport wheels on the "transfer" area are from TheCodeMaster. They're in the same pack as the rails came in. I believe they're under Details>Wheels from the download. 2. I build in Imperial and just convert to Metric for the connectors and crossbeams. Never had an issue with them to my knowledge:/ 3. Nope, haven't had any issues like that. Best guess would be contacting TCM if the problem continues.
That is awesome that it's going to have 3 inversions!!! All I can say is if I ever go to Cedar Point, I certainly hope this ride will have over the shoulder restraints if it's going to go upside down. For me there are 2 exceptions for wearing lap restraints when it goes upside down are Sky Rocket (Kennywood) and SooperDooperLooper (Hershey) it's because they're short and they zip through the inversions. Sky Rocket is a little scary since it goes upside down more than SDL with the lap restraint. SDL only has one loop, so it doesn't bother me one bit.
sportsygirl8 no RMC coasters have over the shoulder restraints and plenty of them go upside down. This one will 99% not have OTS restrains. Lap bars are better, more freedom and less restrictive. Adds to the fun of not being in control and having your hands up.
Some people prefer over the shoulder restraints to feel more secure but with a lapbar only it adds to the thrill, just your opinion on the restraints :)
Yep, that is me. I feel more secure in an over the shoulder restraint when going upside down, on the wooden coasters I'm fine with seat belt and lap bar.
I always wondered why nobody hardly rode this coaster. every time I rode it, there were no more then 10 people in line. just in a far away place I guess backed in a corner.
kepler240 for most it just wasn't smooth enough. 15 years ago there was always an hour+ wait. Since then they've added so many other great coasters, it just didn't compete. Also, the RNC track coasters are phenomenal.
I take it you recorded a raw video then. What do you use to render/edit? I'm poor and a tigh' skate (plus my computer didn't want to download movie maker, although something might have gone amiss while downloading the installer so I should probably try it again, but idk) so I'd like to find something free or inexpensive if I can, that's y I ask.
ItsConnor It is a hybrid coaster by Rocky Mountain Construction. What they do is put steel track on wooden coasters to make the ride smoother and do inversions. Go and look on youtube for roller coasters like Twisted Colossus, Wicked Cyclone, or The New Texas Giant for references.
ItsConnor wood coasters invert the same way steal coasters do, the track pulls the trail along, and the wheels keep the train on the track, the material is irrelevant as long as it can physically support the stress, Hades 360 is completely wood and inverts, and anther gg woodie does, along with a few of the rmc Woodies like Goliath
I'm looking for a launch to be installed on the lift hill. There's no evidence yet that shows it can't be added. However that double up after the first drop can't have too much speed going into it. But to be thrown over the top of that height would be unreal.
As cool as a launch would be, with as many issues as Lightning Rod has, combined with the fact that the angle of ascent on rmc mean streak is roughly 45 degrees, I don't think it's gonna happen. Cedar Point is not generally known for taking risks. Records maybe, but not risks.
Austin Cauley Well nobody is perfect. I'm sure they'll eventually fix that. Dollywood is one of the most expensive parks to visit. Negative guest feedback could take it's toll. That's the bottom of the hill so far tho on Streak. It's passing over other track. After that, it could change angle on its way up. Just sayin. They could put a dark tunnel on that hill too. I'm bein creative here.
@Austin Cauley, I mean, clearly there isnt going to be a lift launch, but Cedar Point isn't known for taking risks? Millennium with it's high speed cable lift and first coaster over 300, Top Thrill with its hydraulic launch and first coaster over 400, and Maverick with its two LSM launches (and removed heartline roll) were all essentially prototypes. Huge risks.
All points well understood. So here's my last stand...Twisted Colossus is a mad success at Cedar's nemesis, Magic Mt. That was clever what they did. These guys are all about one-upping. I just don't think a highest lift hill is quite enough. I think there's something more for the Streak we haven't seen built on yet, whether on the hill or after. But it will be great no matter what. edit: and it won't injure my back ever again!
No offense but I think that name is terrible lol. _Key Master_? That just doesn't sound like a coaster name. The main rumors are that it could be called Centurion or Railblazer, but those don't really sound very good either.
LOL Cedar Point trying to keep up with Magic Mountain!!! Twisted Colossus was first and much better. This looks cool, though when it's done. This appears to be a new trend in the Coaster industry to revamp older coasters. Hopes this keeps happening.
Man! I love the part where the track just ends! That's the thrill I expect from Cedar Point XD
sza
Yeeeeee
The designers clearly played lots of Roller Coaster Tycoon.
i love how the coaster dives under itself all the way to ground level and does the third inversion. It seems that there is a lot of kinetic energy left where this simulation ends, so there will probably be room for a fourth inversion, hopefully a zero G stall :D
There is a lot of speed left before the MCBR so I'm guessing a suprise element may be added before
Kevin Ventura there will only be 2 inversions before the mcbr
Doesn't have to be an inversion... it could be an EPIC g-force helix
Kevin Ventura do forget you have to follow the route of the original layout. There is no place in mean streak were you can do a helix
The layout is roughly a triangle, the third inversion ends along one of the triangle axes. I disagree, an inclined helix has plenty of room in the center of this layout which is entirely open and right where this inversion is ending. But, I don't think a helix will be added, but I do think one could.
Why are you here impressing us with accurate NL2 creations? Have you not considered actually getting interviewed by RMC?
(Pssst, add two hidden block brakes at the end instead of one, to get rid of the annoying pop-up at 1:08)
Definitely should have let the coaster launch off the end of the track into chaotic destruction. Otherwise, great vid.
So basically what you're saying is the end of Cedar Point's new coaster ride means the end of your life?
TheNapkins3 A thrill like no other!
Holy crap, this makes the ride look even more insane! Nice work!
Awesome job, this ride is gonna look so sick when it opens next year!
That looks absolutely fantastic!
This is looking real real good.
This coaster already has 1 minute of pure ride time and it's not Even done yet!!!! This is going to be one insanely long great ride.
This will be one of the best RMC's out there
Ew Lucio
I need to ride this smooth and badass ride next time I go to Cedar Point
Do you think there's gonna be a fourth inversion?
Simonthan I believe so
Simonthan - I certainly hope so!
I hope we get a zero G stall, those are so much fun!
I think I might be a zero g roll again but I also think it could be something we haven't seen on an RMC. Like when maverick had the heart line roll
If you are saying this coaster will be 218 feet, THAT WILL BE AS TALL AS THE ORIGINAL WORLDS TALLEST WOODEN ROLLER COASTER, THE SON OF BEAST!
Nice work with this!
The airtime on this is going to be insane!
you should make a RMC Georgia Cyclone animation since its possibly getting RMC'D next year
How’d you do the RMC track in No Limits?
Hi there, is it okay if I use this POV in my video as well?
how'd ya know almost everything?
RMC can tell by the way the supports & beams look from pictures
how many records this gonna break? tallest. fastest. most inversions on a hybrid coaster.... steepest drop (my guess is 88 degree) what else?
CaRoLiNaFuRy325 It won't be a wooden coaster anymore since the track will be Steel, but will break all those for hybrid coasters. Probably longest as well.
PivotCoasterVideos lighning rod is still consider "wooden" for media purposes it will be a wooden coaster..... for enthisiasts etc its a "hybrid"
CaRoLiNaFuRy325 Lightning Rod actually has wooden track, this does not. Six Flags considers all of theirs hybrids (except Goliath) so this will be as well
www.coaster101.com/2017/06/13/redefining-roller-coaster-types-modern-era/
For the love of John Allen.......not this again.
How many g's were achieved on that top hat?
Awesome, I feel its going to be a Amazing ride, for 2018,, Thanks Guys,
If there is that much space left in the middle they should add like another ride there if the waiting line will not be that big
What top speed did you get from this simulation? Nice work btw
Can I ask you some No Limits questions?
How are you getting the transport wheels to be horizontal w/the safety bar over them? Is this a coaster type I am overlooking or a detailed object from cdemstr?

Just ran a TH-cam Doubler on yours and the CP Official On-Ride POV and Aces is all I have to say!
Railblazin' through that layout
I am not sure how I feel about that new element right at the end. I wouldn't want to be the first to ride it
mulchennui lmao
This is going to be an insane backseat coaster 😂😂😂
Wow so accurate!
God that's going to be intense :P
Is this an upcoming coaster of did you make it for fun?
Joshua Cagle this is the monster being built at Cedar Point right now! Opens May 2018:)
Nice Recreation of Steel Vengeance

Oh, I see. That is a good point and with it going so fast it people may not realize they've gone upside down, which may not bother me then.
Some people prefer over the shoulder restraints to feel more secure but with a lapbar only it adds to the thrill, just your opinion on the restraints :)
Yep, that is me. I feel more secure in an over the shoulder restraint when going upside down, on the wooden coasters I'm fine with seat belt and lap bar.
Amazing!
I always wondered why nobody hardly rode this coaster. every time I rode it, there were no more then 10 people in line. just in a far away place I guess backed in a corner.
I never rode on it, but a lot of people told me that it hurts your back unlike any other ride.
kepler240 for most it just wasn't smooth enough. 15 years ago there was always an hour+ wait. Since then they've added so many other great coasters, it just didn't compete. Also, the RNC track coasters are phenomenal.
AMAZING
The ending made my heart jump XD
How long did it take to record the video? or do you know?
0MindSwept0 - only took a couple minutes to record. Rendering took twice as long lol
I take it you recorded a raw video then. What do you use to render/edit?

Wait isn't it a wooden coaster how does it invert

effinchad there are no block brakes at the bottom of the lift, which would be required for it to be a launch incase of a rollback
All points well understood. So here's my last stand...Twisted Colossus is a mad success at Cedar's nemesis, Magic Mt. That was clever what they did.
These guys are all about one-upping. I just don't think a highest lift hill is quite enough. I think there's something more for the Streak we haven't seen built on yet, whether on the hill or after.
But it will be great no matter what.
edit: and it won't injure my back ever again!
I think their going to call it the key master because... they're coming! The gatekeeper and the key master
No offense but I think that name is terrible lol. _Key Master_? That just doesn't sound like a coaster name. The main rumors are that it could be called Centurion or Railblazer, but those don't really sound very good either.
Its a ghost busters refrence and they leaked a pic of a beer mug themed to the ride with the name "Iron Horse"
I thought it would be called steel vengeance but could be wrong
it is called Steel Vengeance lol
airtime hill after the zero g roll!
I always thought coasters at cedar point were safe...
LOL Cedar Point trying to keep up with Magic Mountain!!! Twisted Colossus was first and much better. This looks cool, though when it's done. This appears to be a new trend in the Coaster industry to revamp older coasters. Hopes this keeps happening.
shawn teller How I see it is that Twisted Colossus is more of a family RMC hybrid while Mean Streak 2018 is going all out.
Yeah
I really hope that there's only 2 inversions
They should name it the Prospector or Gauntlet
cedar point needs to lay off rollercoasters after this one, they been getting so much of them
Kxng Magico stfu
Looking at this vs. the real thing, something is going on with #TheyreComming
(number)TheAnswerIsInTheQuestion
Sssssswwwwwweeeeeettttt
this one is fake hope y'all know that
jordan s I'm at Cedar Point this week. It's actually pretty damn accurate when you see what's in place so far.
