not a fan of those rmc supports. They look a bit thin. and the lift is also a bit steep.

Thanks for the comments guys! The steepness is sort of necessary since it's the closest you'll really get to this type of lift hill used on Goliath at Great America (which was really the inspiration for the coaster). I guess it's not 100% accurate but it's the closest the game will really allow. Here it is from another angle with a comparison. I was actually quite surprised at how well that worked out. I figured trying to mimic Goliath would be sort of a shit show.

Maybe add a couple of additional crossbeams on the actual lift section, make it look a little more solid/supported, I'd also suggest using the layering technique a number of other people have used on RMCs (see X...., and maverix).

EDIT: also, for a closer recreation the catwalk should be light brown

Pretty good copy of the lift actually. What else could you do?

The rest of the screen is fairly good, feels like Sunset Vista a bit, like a step up from that park, but a step down from the rest of Emerald Point. I think the buildings need some more character and details.

I thought of that actually, but those really work better for Iron Horse conversions of old coasters than custom RMC's like this one (and Goliath). The wood coasters have a thin steel rain on top of a bunch of planks of wood, the iron horse coasters have a huge steel (I-Box) piece so it's more fitting for those I think.

Here they are side by side for comparison. I mean, to each his own, everyone has their own style but I don't see the need for it with an RMC woodie.

I think it looks good, its also nice to see new methods for things that are relatively new to RCT instead of sticking to the more common methods of creating something as its good to experiment ! nice work man

Those trees look a lot like how G Force would fill his parks. I think they're too overpowering.

Love the queue overlooking the little pond with the drop. Superb atmosphere.

Awesome Q and coaster. Do the facade buildings serve any purpose too?
