    keep it 50x50 so you could finish it

    let's say i've hired a contractor to help build the park


    Anywho

    screen below: picture of a coaster (guess what type :evil: ) and i dunno if i want it so i thought i'd post a tease and if it is more positive then negative response, i'll keep it. so sorry for it being unfinished, nothing in that screen is final except the coaster track lol. still more details to be added.

    anyone?

    Change of the topic name (I think?) has resulted in my overlooking of it.
    Or perhaps I just overlooked it...

    In any case, the screen is too small to really justify any comments, though I like what you've done with the stone to achieve the "ruined" look. The coaster going through also is a neat element. The colors are a bit off, even if they go with the rest of the area. The stone and yellow just don't go too well together, imo. Also, the wall appears very thin, though I don't know what to do about that because making it thicker would ruin the ruined effect (pun intended).

    Anyway, larger screen = more comments.
    Usually.

    Eh. What you have is good. I like the grey stone on yellow.
  • Dixi%s's Photo
    I like it.
    I like the ruined structure effect, but its more impressive being right over the path like it is. The screen is too small though, Im not a fan of teaser screens, theyre pretty pointless IMO.

    Also I'd keep it small, I bet you dont finish it if it goes past 50x50, and after all, a small gem is better than a large rushed effort.

    Excellent, looks really ruined like a tornado had just ripped it apart or something. Nice idea putting a dive-machine in there too, great work man.

    Looks really nice yeah, although there's little to see...but well it does look good :)

    hobbes: It's getting changed to something else cus it's not the name of the park but one of the attractions instead (see below). I did try mucking about with thickness and i couldn't get anything detialed enough, so now i've scrapped it.

    Turtle: Thanks but it's gone now.

    Adonis: true. at the moment i am concentrtaring on one area and it's nearly finished so if i carry on area to area i can change the size if needs be.

    X250: LOL thank Skeikra for that idea.

    Splash-O: thanks but i don't wana show too much off the bat cus it'll ruin some of the surprises.

    Okay cus the last screen was pretty small i'm gunna show another smallish one to a) keep you interested and B) cus i'm bored right now.

    This is the station to Kinakute, the parks Dive machine. It's open air and the queue meanders through some buildings and terrain eventually finidng it's way over the track and down to the station. I've whited out a section which basically is just gunna have some landscaping and the passage down to the station which i haven't got round to yet + there is some detail missing and supports but apart from that its good.

    EDIT ** forgot to mention that the queue on the roof is for the fastrack and normal queuing.

    Queue on the roof? Genius!
  • tracidEdge%s's Photo
    i love it.
  • Turtle%s's Photo
    Very tidy. The colours all work well, and I like it.
  • Dixi%s's Photo
    Very nice work.
    Its detailed, but by no means chaotic. I like the look of the station, and the mudslide looks well executed. I think the door way looks slightly odd, but I cant put my finger on just why, maybe its because the queue line is not split once it goes through the archway.

    Keep truckin' soldier, your doing a good job.

    Damn, how many names has this project had?

    It's some pretty good work, but thats no suprise, you have always had skills, just you have yet to ever finish anything big, I hope this park will change that.
  • JKay%s's Photo
    ^I agree

    You're doing a good job of keeping people interested in your park without showing too much. Or, in other words, effective advertising. I really like the newest screen; great attention to detail.
  • Phatage%s's Photo
    You're getting really, really good at this. My only suggestions are that there should be higher fences between the line and roof, as well as where the line goes over the station. Also, the right side of the cave looks a little blocky, try to break it up somehow. And although I'm unsure about the catwalk's colors (I think even the cat-track is painted on divers), the screen distinctly feels like something Disney, more specifically capturing the feel of the Splash Mountains' station.
  • tracidEdge%s's Photo
    i don't like how, in the first screen, the water is at the same level as the path. seems like it would overflow.

    and sorry for not pointing this out before, i just went back and looked at it again.
  • RCTFAN%s's Photo
    Steve: lol i'm sure someone else has done somewhen?!?

    tracidedge: thanks very much

    Turtle: thanks. Although it will feel a bit different when you see it in game.

    Adonis: yeh i forgot about that 8@ . thanks for reminding me.

    Kumba: lol too many. thanks for posting Kumba, i've always looked up to you so it's nice to know you like my work. i hope it will cahnge it as well.

    JKay:Thanks again JKay, always a pleasure reading your posts. as for the advertising, usually i tend to over advertise and i think i'm one screen over what i should have posted.....but still i just wann keep the park in everyones mind throughout the week.

    Phatage: now i was thinking the exact same. i have tried lots of differnt things like adding awnings and a roof, adding a castle like ridge, etc but i can't seam to get it to work. Still, that doesn't put me off doing it though, just gotta niggle my way through it til i get a decent result. it's hard to describe without showing you a whole screen.
    as for the cave, i did notice that to when i posted it and i,ve changed it but it still needs a little refining.
    and lastly the catwalks, i usually have grey catwalks to represent steel but your right they usually are painted. i'll see what i can do.

    tracidedge:If you mean the bottom right of the screen with the bridge, it's not there anymore. as for the middl of the screen its not touching, there is about 3/2 small walls distance between the water surface and the path.


    right off to work sum more.

    thanks for the posts guys, keep'em coming

    Oh my. That looks to be a kickass station. Realistically you'd need more fencing up there though.
  • RCTFAN%s's Photo
    just to update i have put fencing up there but cba to show y'all a screen lol, you'll get to see it in game somewhen.
  • Fatha'%s's Photo
    Hmmm....im impressed.
