Here is a park that I have recently finished, a loose interpretation of Central Park in Manhattan...
^Here it is overall. There is a financial district, residential, Broadway, Greenwich Village, Park Avenue and fifth Avenue sections.
^There are two entrances at either side of the park for those weary peeps who "just want to go home!".
^The financial district with the tallest most substantial buildings.
^The "Central Park" section is reserved for the coasters and are run out of these efficiant bays, easy to clean and police.
^Here is a place to take a nice walk or just to sit. There are three separate paths that only intersect at the ends to discourage the "peeps whirlpool". lol
^This large glass building actually came from a previous build. I call it "the birthday cake" and it will become the park's Grand Central Station with two underground monorails.
^The residential/professtional district. This was actually modeled after Chicago, inspired by a shot at the beginning of The Bob Newhart Show.
^Part of the Village.
^Macy's. I have since repainted this in Macy's red.
^The Trocodero nightclub.
^The Taj Cineplex.
^Tiffany's
^4 tiered strip mall.
^Yankee Stadium complete with baseball museum.
The New Camelot Theater.
I have many more pics, but don't want to overload the post, lol.
Have fun in The Big Apple folks!
EDIT: I don't want to give any criticism yet, as I'm a possible judge if you decide to just submit it. Sorry
EDIT: In fact I decided to leave it for now so that geewhzz won't lose his work of having prepared the download for this. geewhzz, can the submission just be turned into a regular db addition perhaps?
Do what ya' gotta do guys, that's okay I have other parks to enter and I think it's most satisfying just to have the parks downloaded so people can have fun.
Also, should I have entered it as "previously released"? I didn't know if you meant here or at other sites or what.
Thanks, (and I guess you can comment now, lol.
Thx
I'm a little confused by the part where you mention the coaster stations though. I'm guessing this is meant to be a scenario file, but why not put in the extra time to build the coasters and release a finished park instead?
In any case, this is very well done I think. I like your style. Hopefully you've got more parks in the works.
Thank you very much Ed! This was my first real "urban" build and I am now making coasters for it in a parallel park I use instead of the coaster designer.
I always open up a test version of an elaborate park and glad I did because I found that the roadway tiles flash when cars run over them. Had to tear all that out, took a couple long nights, lol.
There are a lot of grass areas and one might wonder how I am going to hire an army of gardeners to tend it... Most of the grass is covered by clear pathway and won't grow.
Most of it, those woven path sections I left uncovered because I do like the look of fresh-cut grass.
Here are some more pics...
^ A small, but exclusive resort. (That houses two car rides, lol. Things are not always as they appear in the big city.)
^ Some scrapers that were built outside the park just to fill up that skyline.
^ The Palace.
^ Vista Bank. (Cash machine around back.)
^ Every park of mine has a Big Ben's.
^ The second entrance.
^ More filler scrapers.
Many of the buildings are just glass boxes suitable for small coasters like Circulator. (But let's face it, many of the buildings in Manhattan are just big glass boxes. (It ain't the Spanish Riviera, lol)
A lot of these pics were taken during the build, so there are a lot of details in the download you don't see here.
I will release a version with the park full of coasters. I have about a dozen that are custom fitted for it now.
Thanks guy!
Thx
although not well as executed as it couldve have been. it's really nice and i love it.
Okay...
Um... can I just put in a park and not care about accolades...?
I have one now that has been at 25% approval since submittal a few days ago.
Thx
Okay, thank Ivo, sorry I'm still so new here.
Here is a coaster I built for the New York park: Rush Hour...
Overall...
That's what I ended up with, this was the original concept for the build...
"Rush Hour"?
The idea was that at the bottom the trains rushing back and forth would resemble busy commutor trains, there are four separate coasters there. They got a pretty high rating. up in the 8s, but I still considered it a failure.
Later I would have built New York style skyscrapers between the tracks and a busy commuter scene.
I'll go back and build another coaster like that though, sucks when your computer dies on you and you lose everything...
... but then we rct folks are used to that, lol.
Thx
