Faux Pas Woodies

Would it be possible to create a "faux pas" woodie using one of the steel coaster types given?

I ask this not because IF this can be done. I know it can... I ask this if it would logically work during simulation mode.

I noticed the more supports that are added, the lower the frame rate drops in certain areas. If I were to take a coaster-type, and just go nuts with supports so it creates the feel & look of a wooden coaster, would it actually run at a decent frame rate, or would it drop to around 10fps??(given, a Geforce3 & 1.4athlon).

I want to know this so I don't spend 20 hours creating supports and finding out that the coaster won't even run smoothly when in the simulator mode.

Why don't you just wait until Ole adds woodie support, which is has stated he will, and save yourself 20 hours of work anyway.

Umm... because it won't be out for awhile (couple months minimum). His first priority are fixing bugs, compatibalitiy issues, and other minor system issues.

Besides, ya can only make so many steelies before you say "Man, I need something 'different'..."

...Wondering what the 2002 season holds for all parks...

I don't know about it being a while until we have them... he had said in the chat at thrillspot that he had been getting ready to test them... so that may be a clue that they will be out very soon... if they do come out soon Ole better be sure that he has new sounds for it because if he is planning on using the same sounds to pas for a wooden coaster then he is crazy.

I got my e-mail response in about 5 minutes...

I understand this may have been a little faster than most.

Someone made a woodie that was just a Schwarzkopf coaster with the complex-supports every couple feet. It looks pretty close to a woody, at least from far away.
