Thats amazing! Really hope they add this [yesnod]
Nice! I worked on SF Great Adventure's "Freefall" back in the late '80s when it was fairly new. Would be very nostalgic to see it in the game, as there are only a few left in parks around the US.
Building a recreation of Geauga Lake (Six Flags Worlds of Adventure). Will upload it when complete this fall. I even put the original soundtrack for this particular Freefall into the game thanks to @PsycloneSteve https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIEyDY3LKpc
I made one using the coaster with vertical lift and drop. But didn't finish the supports. You did a great job. RCT3 has a CFR of this, and Theme Park Studio has a freefall as well. My local park Dorney Park has the Demon Drop from Cedar Point. It was originally built in 1983 at Cedar Point. So was Great Adventure's. I think theirs is gone. You should upload that to the workshop. I would love to use it. I could figure out how to build the coaster on it to make it a working ride. At the part on the bottom of the drop where the cars are flat on their backs then reverse and go vertical to return to the station I would twist the coaster track sharply downward to take it to the station level. I would have to have it curve off of the main structure in order to curve it down and back to the station.

Agreed , you should upload this to the workshop .
In RCT 2 and 3 in had 8 of those things side by side, launching at the same moment. I cant wait for this to be in game.
This isn't a launched freefall, it's an Intamin 1st gen freefall. The cars get hoisted up a vertical lift in the tower, then move out and drop down the curving drop, leaving riders on their backs, then the car reverses down a drop and returns to the station, becoming vertical again. my local park, Dorney Park has Demon Drop from Cedar Point. They rebuilt it at Dorney in 2010. It was originally built in 1983. RCT3 has a working ride from CFH Rides. Here is the page with a vid to show you how the ride works. Theme Park Studio also has one, but that game seems to be dead. http://cfhrides.wixsite.com/cfhrides/free-fall I might be able to make this a working ride using the vertical lift coaster.

Well, I made a working ride with it using the vertical lift coaster. What I did is have the cars leaving the station and go around a loop to the back of the tower, then up the lift and then down the drop then veer off to the side and loop around a very tight loop, then down to station level and return to the station. It functions very similar to the real ride with just a few differences. At least peeps will be able to ride it now. There already was a coaster with the structure, but it didn't go up the tower. Mine does. I had to delete some of the X supports and bars where the track goes through the tower. I wish though that there was a vertical lift coaster with 4 seater cars with just one row of seats.

You're probably talking about this: http://rct.wikia.com/wiki/Reverse_Whoa_Belly_Roller_Coaster
This ride is based off of Mr. Hyde's Nasty Fall from my hometown park which is now defunct

There are multiple ways to add an existing coaster track to this model to at least have something for people to ride. You can do what Robert K has done, add the torque coaster (Like what I did in the model posted to the workshop), or something else; however these are just ways to have something function within the structure. Hoping Frontier adds the real deal!
