Now all we need is a way to get rid of the stations and have the cars just on the track

Viking - This is possible. Just make the station a separate ride, merge it with another coaster that is the layout of the ride, and merge it back to the station at the end of the ride. Make the working ride (that's only a station) invisible, and lower a straight piece of track from above it (going in the backwards direction) into the correct position.

Wow, those were some good questions.

Viking - your hack can be done with a combination of hacks, and I've explained how in your post in the red letters. In fact, I've done it in the past.

RCTNW - I had to do more research before I could answer this fully, so that's why there was a delayed response.

Anybody who hasn't seen the post RCTNW made, and my response to it, it would be a great idea to scroll up 2 posts. Anyone who has anthing to contribute to this discussion, I strongly encourage you to do so. Any ideas you have to offer could be the key to making it work as desired 100% of the time.

Can you please do a Tutorial on it with pictures. I am still confused.

Edit (Aug 26, 2005): I haven't forgotten about this, but I had no time over the summer due to work and vacations, and lately I've been getting settled into college. It'll come in time.

This hack can be done of flatland rides too, which I find makes them actually more realistic than with entrance/exit buildings. But don't open the construction window of the ride after this hack has been done or you will get and error and the game will close down. (I learned that the hard way.)

Are you able to provide a little more information about the error you got? I haven't encountered this problem at all while using this hack. Maybe I could find a way to fix this issue for you.
