I wanted to make this coaster and share it here because the Ride Exchange is STILL down, at least for me. It is called "Maximum Overdrive" and has a maximum height of 590 feet (drop height is 547 feet), and spans almost 13,000 feet of the park I made it in.

There isn't a download available yet, but here are some pictures of the ride. I am planning to make a download of the park I made with this ride in it (it's 256x256 BTW). So here you go:

You may have to zoom in to see some lettering; it isn't hard to find the button ENJOY!!!

I plan to extend the ride by adding a tunnel, adding more air time, as well as a few more helixes. I'm also going to put a tiny lake wit ha waterfall and have the coaster go through that.

Ridex v2 is closed while a reported bug is diagnosed and fixed.

...as soon as the bug is tracked down and eliminated, you will be able to upload your coaster into the Ridex.

Not everything about this recent upgrade was a good thing...

Okay... here's an update: Unfortunately, the waterfall and tunnel plan was a no-no. So, as a last ditch effort, I removed the waterfall and landscape and added more hills and helixes for the roller coaster. This plan worked, and my Excitement rating went up, fairly slim. Whilst I did made some sacrifices (as my Nausea rating goes up to High). Here are some more photos, and I now have a view of almost the entire coaster (NOTE, not the entire park is covered in trees, just the coaster; i'm too lazy)! Whoever comes and actually reads this, ENJOY!!!

Nice stats!!! Great job on the extreme excitement...

I built a coaster like that once in the Extreme Heights scenario. Maxed out it's height (at the time I wasn't using trainers). It was awesome. In a little less than a year 5000 peeps had ridden it.

Once again, NICE! Too bad no one is reading/replying to this topic. (trust me, I know how that goes )

WOW!!! That is EXTREMELY huge and exiting! Nice Job!

Added screenshots of the transfer track; I forgot to do so before, and I've made a food court and a souvenir shop near the coaster's 547 foot plunge. Here you go:

Oh BTW here's an Easter Egg for you: I misspelled Souvenir in the game; I just realized that when the red line was underneath it. Darn!

I've raised the Excitement Rating!!! It's over 11!!!! Seriously!! Dang, when I took the picture, the "Window Title" text got in the way. Hope you can read it.

Still just as good but more exiting.
