Hi Rune!

IMHO the shaking is not too strong. But I would make the crystals much 
bigger, while using not so many of them.
And how about adding some switches, some more rails, etc.? Perhaps 
even make it look like driving through an old mine, with bars, some 
rusty tools and so on (don't forget the skeleton *g*)

Keep up the good work,
Florian

It looks even better than before. The camera shake is ok, adds realism. The only
negative comment I can think of is that the sleepers between the rails are
ghostly in the mid and background. Also the rails seem to float in midair with
no support. Other than that it is impressive with a good atmosphere.
Looking at it in full screen the camera shake does seem a bit violent but at
100% it looks ok. It must be a mater of perception / field of view. So if it
makes me feel uncomfortable then it works. :-} Nice one.

Regards
        Stephen

Better, reminded me of some of the myst trilogy cut scenes

That is so cool.  How did you manage the seemless loop?  It doesn't seem 
like we're going in circles?

I think the shake is right, it's just a little dry.  Motion blur would make 
it real, unless you already have that.

OOOPS!  I saw you answered that already in your first tunnel post, sorry.  
Your technique works great.

I think the shake is a nice touch, but personally I think it is a bit much.
A little goes a long way.

Yeah, I'm a bit blank with that one. Any ideas how the rails could be
supported? I don't think it would look right if the bottom of the tunnel
was flat.

Thanks!

I agree on both. It's done in the next version.

That's a bit above my ambition level. I only want to make thinks that
can be automated with scripts. I'm considering the bars, but I'm not yet
sure how to go about it.

It only requires having 'supports' (cylinders or boxes at it's simplest) exending
every so
often from each rail perpendicular to the rail at that given point, and making sure
that they
are long enough to extend 'into' the tunnel floor.

BTW, I think the shaking is a little too strong.

Very impressive.
