[color=white]MConte05- Hey, you did a real good job on the Roller Coaster; I like the over all feel of the coaster (going fast/slow at the right part… And no long straight-aways! YAY!) When I first watched the video, the first thing that I noticed was that there were no places for the people to sit! Where are the seats? Also, ounce the ride started, I noticed that the bars do intersect into the car; like you said… But, as you said, if you had some more time…[/color]

[color=white]Sir Vulcan- I really liked you Roller Coaster, you used the environment, better than Colt did (IMO) and I love how you had all the drops and turns, looking as though you were going to hit the side of the hill at any moment. The cart that the people would ride was decent… But the main thing that killed you in the race for first place was the fact that the textures on the ground and sky were not as good as they should of been (but I do commemorate you for actually doing textures, it helped with the over all feel) The main thing that bugged me was the sky texture, and how you had this nice cloud texture, but than the water texture was right there (up in the sky?) with it… The water texture was good, but some more animation would have been better. The ground texture was your best, but it would have helped if you added some more objects into the scene, such as a broken down wagon, or other old western objects. But then again, you seemed to run into the same problem as the other people… The Lack of Time![/color]

[color=white]Colt- Best out of the whole competition… Not much to complain about, the one thing that I did not like was the cart, which the people would have been ridding in, though it had a good texture, (very shiny) it did not seem like something that would be on that type of ride. But than again you clearly werent going for the reality of the simulation from all of the JoFs (jumps-of-faith). Although there was that one part that bugged me there was lots that really impressed me… I really liked all the extras such as the signs at the beginning, and the details such as the rocks, and the environment… I liked all of the excitement such as gaps in the track, but it sometimes it was followed by a sew seconds of climbing up a hill, which lessened the excitement. Very good job and I hope to see more of your work in the future![/color]

[color=white]Yan- Nice job, It still has the unfinished look, like most of the Roller Coaster’s in this competition. The one thing that I was a little disappointed in was that there were no support beams! But your rides car was very nice, and it is good to see someone doing the stand-up coaster theme, I could see it being so much better if you, like more people, had more time.[/color]

[color=white]FrankFirsching- I really like your Roller Coaster over all but if you had some more time, Yours would of gave colt’s a run for his money… The Coaster ran very well on the tracks and (IMO) had the best seats/riding cart out of the whole competition. It is too bad that you did not have time to finish, and put in some textures… Over all I liked it but, it could have been so much more…[/color][/color][/font]
