This is exactly what I was wanting to learn! Thanks. I don't have solidworks, so I'm going to try it in Fusion 360 and see how it goes. Any chance you could share that script? :D
Hey, hope somebody sees this considering this video is 4 years old. When i try to import the track data into solidworks, i get an error message saying something like: "At least two adjacent points are too identical or too close from one another." I have tried to increase the distance btwn points to 1.1 but nothing changes. Any help ?
Could you clarify what you mean about the down X, Y, and Z to get that fourth curve? What did you subtract from the up X, Y, and Z? The heartline height? Or just how much lower the track's spine is from the centerline between the rails? My sweep is getting all wonky when I try in SW and I'm wondering if using that fourth guide curve (the "down" curve) would help. Right now I'm just doing centerline and the rails.
Thank you very nice I couldn't find the script that extracts the spline track.. Can you download or purchase a script? and install it in the program? and how's that
This is really useful and awesome. I'm trying to print a coaster myself, but I'm useing Autodesk Inventor (it's free because I'm a high school student). I'm thinking about making videos of this process and posing them on RUclips, but it's such a large project that I don't know if I could manage videos and school and the coaster. Inventor is not nearly as good as solidworks, I don't think you can import a bunch of cordinates like that. I'll look though. But I think I'm just going to make the spline manually in inventor. I've already done so for half the coaster. Besides, it doesn't have to be perfect it just has to work. That's my goal.
Nathoni Zamboni sounds like an awesome project! You can always come back after and make the videos, that’s what I’m doing. I haven’t used inventor in years but I’m sure there’s got to be some way to import the data. I’ll have to look and see.
Thank you for posting these videos! I see the holes you add on the ends of the track segments, can you go over how exactly you will join them when printed? And what exactly is the track rails made of? It looks like pneumatic tube or boden tube. How do you join it to the ribs?

I spy CopperHead Strike. ;P
Coaster Labs lol I’m very busy with other coaster projects as well. ;)
Pardon me, mind you to explain the rotational part of that csv file
Would you consider sharing the file that does the process automatically?

this stuff would be awesome if it didnt cost me 1k dollars to run

When you import all the individual track spine data, is there a way to automate the modeling process or does each segment have to be modeled by hand?
Is there some sort of affordable version of solid works? It’s soooo expensive
Thank you very nice

Great job! Could you make a video of the process of making the track in NoLimits? Thanks for the videos!
can u make a tutorial for the track making im really confused
I'd love to see some new videos man!

I use Inventor for HS too but it seems like it would be awfully hard to do. You should post however!
@@epochemu3505 I think I will post a video about it. It probably won't be anything fancy or a tutorial, just a summary of what I have so far.

How do you bank the square spine on the Batman track?
Can you use tinker cad for this?
It is posible to auto cad?
Is there any way to do this in planet coaster?
M Blaty no because planet coaster is a game
This is amazing!!!! I can’t wait to do this!! #lifegoals 😍😍😍
