    Just to stop confusion Eclipse is the worlds first 12 looping coaster,Oblivion is not a clone ive only shown the drop,Extremis is a machine designed to fight the nemesis beast.

    Right, this will be short and sweet.

    Screen 1 & 2: Way too many supports. Get rid of all the brakes. Get rid of the in-game supports. Vary the trees a bit more and add in some bushes/flowers/etc. No trees on rock surface.

    Screen 3: No need for cross ties if it's B&M. If you can use the in-game cobra roll as it looks better. Too many/Wrong supports. The 1/4 height grey and beige wall looks out of place to me.

    Screen 4 & 5:Kudos for actually having the first half of Nemesis as accurate as possible. Monorail looks too high IMO.Extremis is a shit name. I don't understand the theme, how does it fit in with nemesis? If its going to be a 'machine' to fight Nemesis then it needs to look like its been under attack from it.

    Screen 6 & 7:Lift Hill supports are wrong. Get rid of in-game supports. Put in a catwalk. Trees on rock surfaces. Too many fence colours/types, Stick with one colour and one main fence type for that area.

    4 inline twists = Colossus at thorpe park
    Ripsaw=top spin at alton towers...
  • nin%s's Photo

    Put some space between that Cobra Roll...It looks horrible with just the half-corkscrews connected to one another...

    Hey guys ok, Eclipse is supposed to be and intamin but i cant hack really, can only do the really basic stuff, plus my comp dont like it when i try and do to complecated hacks, the 1/4 beige/gray wall will be gone, i will try to add catwalks but like i said i cant hack, the pics arnt finished i just wanted to see if i was going in the right direction.the story behind Extremis"which names will change"At the top of the tower is a electric generator, at the bottom of the tower, is a long power cable, going frm 1 tower to the other"YOU CANT SEE FROM THE ANGLE BUT THERE ARE 2 GUN BARRELS FACING TO THE LEFT" facing the nemesis beast. power is collected wich fires electric frm the second tower," you the rider have the chance to have a look at the machine that will apparently save the valley, upon entrance you pass through 2 big stones,(the ride entrance)unknown to you, you have just been entranced, by Nemesis's power, which in turn makes you hypnotized and walk to the maintanance vehicle,( the ride car) the car starts moving to the top of the tower,where at the top Nemesis executes it revenge by making the "maintantance vehicle crash to the floor!" i know a bit confusing but some of the best storys are lol

    I don't know about the Thorpe atmosphere, but I can tell you that your screens are really, really dark and brown. You should light up the park by putting some bright/vivid colors in there. Anyway, it seems dead and I would not want to go to this park in real life.

    Again Ripsaw (note: it is awesome to name a ride after yourself) astounds with Thorpe Gardens. I have no idea why you discarded the first, I hope you will release an unfinished version or let some coasters influence their way into this.

    This is awesome and I can smell Spotlight for this. Everything is again good, and better than TGI, the only better thing about the first is that it had more things, but I am sure you will make more.

    P.S. How big is that map?

    Spotlight?

    Runner-up maybe.
  • Grand Admiral%s's Photo
    Like we used to say in chemistry. You got polarity!
  • Tornado6%s's Photo
    Wow. That could aalready make a better park than AT.

    I know its been a long time sice an update but heres somthing now the shots are in nowhere finished more in a construction state, for instance, most of the custom suports are not complete. Anyways here are the shots of The Forbbiden City, Apocalypse Valley and The new launched laydown coaster Storm Talon! But heres the main updates.
    Extremis is gone, and moved to The Forbidden City under the new title Judgement!,in its place is the new ride Dynamo.
    Eclipse's station is complete.
    3 Flat rides made there way to TFC. Equinox,Euphoria and Zodiac.
    The parks first water ride has also arived under the name of Xibalba, a Intamin rapids ride, with a suprise super-soaking ending!

    Storm Talon... Take a ride into the darkside of the mines,an area enshrouded by a darkforce known as Storm Talon.. Dare you enter the mine and feel the force as the the Storm Talon, launches you backwards on your back in to flight, and into the grasp of the Claws or the demon its self!

    Storm Talon?



    all the screens look nice but nothing really jumps out at me... and there's a bit too much brown in the very last screen
  • ChillerHockey33%s's Photo
    Storm Talon doesnt fit the theme.... Quite a random name..
  • Ripsaw%s's Photo
    Ok there seems to be some misunderstanding over the story of Storm Talon. So i will try to elaborate on it some more." In the backwoods lies a dark desolate mine said to hold a stash of hidden gold deep within, but as with most fortunes theres a catch, the mine is said to be cursed and home to a DEMON OF FLIGHT known as Storm Talon. It is said that all who come within the reach of the mines load will face the demon who guards it.Is the gold worth the price of coming face to face with the melevolant spirit that is Storm Talon...make your choice....>>>>> THE RIDE >>>> In the queue line you enter the base of the mine, t.v's will show you the legend of Storm Talon...After going out of the first building you will pass over some bridges and enter shaft 13 the walkway to the entrance of the second queue area situated behind the brakerun...After going though that part you finaly walk upthe dark corridor to the station where your "Specialy designed mine vehicle" waits on the leaving the station you take a 180 turn and go onto the depths of the mine, to your right is the gold, at this point the roof above you erupts in to strobes, smoke and high pitched screeching noises.."storm talon has arived" as you are taken under the power of the demon you are launched backwards on your back into the main mineshaft, where the demon storm talon throws you into flight and into the rest of the coaster layout! IF THIS RIDE STILL SEEMS TO CAUSE PROBLEMS I WILL RESTART WITH SOMETHING LIKE DRAYTONS SHOCKWAVE, OR A MINE THEMED RIDE Of THE PAST DANGER ZONE RIDE FROM THORPE GARDENS 1 .

    H.T.I.D
    Rave to the Grave!!!

    Seems very well thought out and classy, but your ad campaign is top notch.
  • Ripsaw%s's Photo
    Wooo its time for an update, for those who hated Storm Talon, well you will be happy it has been dimantled and the scenery was removed to start from scratch, and now what appears to be a Tausauds inspired park, reallu now it more of a Best of British park lol, Because the park not only has Alton Towers and Thorpe Park influences but now Drayton Manor.. SO without futher adue i present SHOCKWAVE!!! Stand-up and feel the power!
