    Looks nice...

    I like it, it looks modern and realistic , but if I were you, I'd remove the straw rooves, they don't fit very well IMO. Also, you could add some red flowers so you give the area some more vivacious looks.

    Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing the developement of this park. Keep going.

    ^but it would make more sense to have it look more calming and tranquil, rather than trying to give it flare. As for the rooves, I think they fit fine...

    Again, great building placement and overall look. I especially like the use of the grass-roof to spice it up.

    Thanks for the comments everyone.

    RCFanB&M - The original Marine World (actual park in Redwood City) was actually called Marine World Africa USA and had a very strong influence of straw roofs and huts all over the place (from what I can remember). I want to carry that idea over to this park as well (although the entrance plaza does not reflect this). The area adjacent to the screenshot will have strong presence of the straw roves. With all that said, the monorail station is attempting to tie the two areas together. I agree that by it self, it looks odd but it will fit in once the other area is complete. Thanks

    Thanks again for all the feedback

    Other than the overbaring brightness caused by the yellow and white flowers (some of the "normal flowers in the same colors, the ones the aren't so bright would do well here) those screens are classy on a level rarely seen. The architecture is cut-and dry. Completely realistic and simply yet somehow not boring.

    I'm excited today I guess. Many new good screens up in the ad suddenly; makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.

    Update - MGA is around 90% complete and we are looking at a April 2, 2007 as the Grand Opening date as we continue to work on the other maps. Media day will be anounced soon.

    Below is finished version of The Edge as seen from the Fiesta topic.

    This should be the final update for this map. :)

    Thanks for the support so far on this project. It has really helped to make fine tune adjustments.

    IMO, the foliage could use a little work, but not much. I don't like the treeing much, maybe add a few more 1/4 tile trees/smaller trees, and a few shrubs. Also, I think I would add a couple bullrushes near the corners of the mowed lawn (Not every handyman is perfect, is he? ;) ). Finally, I would change the color of the flowers again, prolly to a solid yellow.

    The rest looks very nice. :)

    if i am paying my associates to mow my grass, they damn well better get it all.

    It's alright... A nice feel of realism and all, but nothing great.

    Thanks everyone

    Update time once again. Yes I know it's only been a couple of days since my last one however, I for one am very excited about this one.

    To most people, parking areas are a waste of time, map space and object limits, however to me, this parking area is none of those. This is perhaps the most complex parking area ever attempted in RCT (yes I know I'm a sick puppy).

    Below is two of the four Tram lines that will connect the various parking areas to each of the three park entrances and the main hub. Disneyland was the insperation for this portion of the project and is something I have had in the back of mind since last July. After many hours of trial and error, the layout works just how I invisioned it.

    It looks nice, and I like the use of the black roads instead of more concrete looking ones. Good to see my road arrows being put to good use. I just think you could do a better job with the side streets. There probably shouldn't be tiled lines in between parking spaces. Also good idea on the invisible monorail system to simulate the trams. Don't forget to put in your handicap objects where needed. I just hope you have crosswalks where they are needed, and stoplights.

    That's intense... absolutely love the use of the monorails as trams, it's perfect! Keep up the great work... and that Intamin 1st Gen came out amazing.

    awesome. I can't wait for this
  • Genius638%s's Photo
    that is so f***ing awesome! and I don't curse often! I can not wait for these parks to come out, honestly. This is probably the BEST park I've ever seen. Only problem is that the parking spaces are a different color than the road
