This thread is to start off the NL forum since the new forums are up.
To keep this short, as I'm sure people have already read the old thread, etc I am just going to give links to screenshots, etc..

Feel free to post a reply with any comments.

Also note that this video requires the 3ivx D4 4.5+ codec installed, if you do not have
this codec, then you can goto http://www.3ivx.com/download/windows.html and then download/install
it to view the video correctly. It's quick and painless.

It also requires the MPEG-4 codec, and if for some odd reason you're still using a very old
windows media player version, you can grab it by clicking here (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/forpros/format/codecdownload.aspx)

:: Notes
Track was made in NoLimits 1.6, so using it on an earlier version may have different speeds which may result in hitting a redline or higher g-force.

Track was downloaded over 2,000 times from various sites including RCPro.

This version (released prior to Maverick opening), includes the heart line roll.

All defects are already noted and well aware of so you do not need to spend time letting me know as this version will not be improved or redone as I lack the time to do so.

Great recreation, I'm glad you kept the heartline!

I'm sorry, this is not even close to a resemblence of the real Maverick.

I like the good effort however.

For more details contact Real (on WWS). He knows almost everything about Maverick and how it is supposed to be built.

Actually, I think this is a splendid recreation! I downloaded it a while ago, and it is awesome! :)

^Just wondering Intamin, have you ridden Maverick?

Yes, in every seat.

That's why I love Intamins! :p

IntaminFan007;

I know this ride isn't all that great. And no thanks, I won't be contacting Real.

I made this ride prior to Maverick being finished, and I haven't been to Cedar Point to ride it yet. Therefor it's only natural for it to not be a perfect recreation as going off construction pictures where the ride is uncompleted is rather hard. I was updating the track as the real rides construction progressed the best I could.

I am well aware of all of the issues with the ride, the fact this version has the heart line should be an indication it was done long prior to Maverick's opening and/or testing.

And the second fact, that I hadn't played NL in over a year prior to doing this. So my skills were also rusty.

On note, I also take offense to your post, so if you don't mind, if you don't have anything nice to say in threads of mine, then as the motto goes, don't say anything at all. If you can better, be my guest. Ty.

And thanks to everybody else that supported the project before the new forums, glad some people at least liked the recreation. :)

I remember riding this a while ago, great recreation. Simply amazing. I hope I can see more from you in the NL area, although I know you're very busy!

I know some universal NL tips on drops and shaping of hills I could show you.

This is just amazing. Especially considering it was made before the ride was completed!

I liked it alot, but the Horseshoe roll was way too flatened, and so was the stengal dive. Both need to be about 15-20 feet higher. But this is pretty impressive regarding that this was made before the ride even came out, good work. :p
