New Update 2.6 Released
The new hybrid coaster comes in two variations. One normal version and one LSM launch version with headrests. There is now a total of 43 different coaster styles included in the software. The new wooden support generator was completely rewritten to fit the new hybrid styles. It gives great results for inline twist inversions out-of-the-box, and only in rare cases manual adjustments are required. There are more new features and optimizations included. Here is a shortened list of the update change log:
- New coaster style: Hybrid Coaster (standard)
- New coaster style: Hybrid Coaster (launched)
- Two new parks demonstrating the new coaster styles
- Completely rewritten Wooden Support Generator
- Automatic supporting of inline twist inversions
- Automatic wide supporting for heavily banked tracks
- Special patterns for new hybrid coasters
- Normal patterns for standard wooden coasters
- Generates bolts and nuts
- Rectangular steel beams can be without paint
- New MSAA anti-aliasing option

Here is a shortened list including the most import changes
- Improved Linux/SteamOS/Wine compatibility
- Improved automatic occlusion system resulting in higher framerates in some parks
- Several optimizations in Mac port resulting in higher scripting performance
- New flat ride Wave Swinger
- Progress bar when taking poster screenshots (pro version only)
We are still working on a larger free update that will contain a new coaster style called the Hybrid Coaster. It will definitely come out, but we may take some more time. We are trying to finish it before Christmas 2019.
Update 2.5.7. released
Here is the list of the most important news. The full list of changes can be seen inside the program (Main menu -> Info -> What's new).
- New flat ride Ranger
- New flat ride Sky Hawk
- Script Parameters
- Video file playback on materials
- Various demo objects that demonstrate the new script parameters:
- Area Music
- Onboard Music
- Video Screen
- Fire Effect
- Area Music
- 360° Equirectangular Video Export option with Professional License*
- New bottom accented spine type on Twisted Coaster styles
- Manual focus distance option for field of view effect
- Improved fog effect with dynamic sky
Both new flat rides are recreations of classic fun fair rides. They are highly detailed with realistic sound effects. Also, they can be operated manually. Check out the Doppel Looping park where both rides were installed.
The new Script Parameter feature is a fundamental new option that will improve the usabilty of new scripted objects in the future a lot. They will allow the user to customize settings of the objects through the scene object instance panel, which can then be processed by scripts attached to the object. There are a lot of possibilities.
* The Professional License upgrade can be purchased on our website nolimitscoaster.com
Update 2.5.6. released
Users with high resolution displays (Retina/4k) who prefer running the program in Window mode, may try out the new Window Half Resolution option, which is available when a display with a high resolution is detected.
Setup -> Display:
Display Mode: Window
Resolution: Half Window Resolution
This special window mode makes the program render at half resolution which can tremendiously improve framerates, especially on laptops (e.g. MacBooks with Retina displays).
Full change log of update can be seen inside the program (Info -> What's new).
Now available for Mac! New Update 2.5.5. released.
