Meretrix Offline
OK, there is a scenery GOD over at Atari......he just created.......
COLORED LIGHTS!!!!!!!!!!!......best of all, they are little blips that don't actually show up, so all you get is gorgeous ambient lighting when it gets dark.....
this person, who goes by the screen name DarkRidePerson, is my new hero.........
this changes everything...........take a look..............

i was thinking today: this could not be beter but it can...
What don't you like about it.....Personally, I'm having trouble with keeping the Adventureland section fresh.....it's almost done, but I have gone in about 3 different directions with it.....having the colored lights mixes it up a bit at night......when building during the day.....it's been taking a long time just to get each building looking "right" without looking like every other building.
Comments, or fixes would be appreciated. -

I've been hoping for these ambient lights to show up one day...
They look terrific!
You're listening deano; THIS is the FUTURE of NE!
Great job meretrix, and for the repetitiveness of the buildings during daylight, maybe try to incorporate more colors in a way.. They always add some variation I think... Could also be as in flowers (has anyone over at Atari made decent flowers yet?!)..
Good luck with the remaining of the project, it already looks like a winner!

Trix, I'm surprised you don't work for Disney. It seems like you know the parks backward and forward. Excellent job. -

i'm not sure, but i think he means "is," not "can." judging by his previous statements.What don't you like about it.....Personally, I'm having trouble with keeping the Adventureland section fresh.....it's almost done, but I have gone in about 3 different directions with it.....having the colored lights mixes it up a bit at night......when building during the day.....it's been taking a long time just to get each building looking "right" without looking like every other building.

I would take out some of the colours of the ambient lights - the green doesn't fit. Maybe stick with two complimentary colours, the purple and aqua look very good together.
Apart from that, it looks very good.
Can you please link me to the download for those? -

He translated it literally from the dutch language, and that isn't always the same in English. The same words sometimes don't have the same meaning. What he tries to say is something like: "I thought it couldn't get any better, but you've just did it".
I love this. This is amazing. This adds amazingly much atmosphere and realism to the game. I'm beginning to like RCT3. -

How does this area look during the daytime?
If those lights still shine, I imagine it'd look very odd indeed.
I agree with Turtle about the colors of the lights. You've got too much going on right now.
These new screens are good, but SpaceMountain still blows me away. The rest is kinda meh, though I don't really have too much suggestion wise because I don't have the game. -

I got this too many lights crit at Atari too, so I'll explain my reasoning behind it. During the daytime, this area is actually very "dark and sinister" looking, very jungle-ish and sort of overgrown. At night it's vibrant and colorful, and here's why. I have moved all the Peter Pan references with the park to Adventureland, including the flat ride, so I wanted it to have a really light, kaleidoscopic, magical feel to it. At night it really becomes a sort of "haven" for the Lost Boys.....so that was my rational. If you don't agree or like it that's fine. I think it's cool.....the more I get into this land, the more I'm grooving on the dichotomy of it.
Cheers. -

It definitely has a "young" looking feel to it, if you get what I mean. That's good, and it does fit your explanation.
