Making the Roller Coaster

The roller coaster was made by firstly creating a basic path for the roller coaster to follow using the shape tools. To join these different parts together, the shapes were made into editable spline, moved the paths in line with each other, attach the splines and then weld the points together.

The loft tool was used to create the the tracks of the roller coaster. A basic shape was drawn to show a cross sectional view of the tracks then this was lofted along the path already drawn.

Using the cyclinder and box tool the supports of the roller coaster were attached.

This roller coaster was placed on a basic scene and then the carriages were made by simply using the box and chamfer box tool.

A path constraint was made with the carriages and the path.

This created the animation of the roller coaster
