^ Not at all. I wanted a sea going bird for this one it came down to Osprey or Seahawk and Seahawk sounded better.

Why does it say Megladon under Convention Center?

It shouldn't. It's fixed. Thanks

Project Status #39 - 1/10/10

Hello once again. Work continued today however it has been rework of one of the stadiums. Problem was it was too big once the coasters were put in place and was way out of scale. That said, the modifications are turning out well and we should get back on track soon.

Since it has been a couple of weeks without an updated SS, I present one of the flat rides that I'm really happy with.

In other news, progress on the park will be spotty over the next few weeks as I will be in the process of moving so RCT time may be limited. All that said, I'm still looking for a 4-2-10 release date.

Wow, that looks fantastic James. Really sweet atmosphere going on and I love the foliage. Might reconsider the wooden fence, though.

^Nah I like the use of more different objects. I just think it's the pink flowers that is throwing off the over all view of the area.

It's just so tranquil and lovely to look at. As a guest I can imagine being chilled out the whole day at your park.

Looks okay, nothing special, but no complaints.

I'm with Steve. The wooden fence doesn't look like it should be there IMO.

Your style automatically comes with a mass of atmosphere and this is no exception.

I agree with everything that it looks very good and really breathes a lot of atmosphere but it just isn't enough to wow me cuz it looks exactly the same as all the previous screens y've showed, a different path type would do wonders IMO...

A different path style wouldn't be RCTNW's style. It's all part of the package <3

I think it's very clean, so clean that it's sucked all life out of the screen. I don't know, it's just not really my style. I do like the placement of the ride though, I could imagine being there and seeing the chairs swinging overhead. Only problem is, when I imagine myself being there, I also imagine myself being at Lightwater Valley or Pleasure Island.

Steve - The wood fence will make more sence when you see it in game. Thanks though!

JDP - Problem is I have several areas that are heavy in the blues (the next update included) and I need to add other colors when I can.

J K - Thanks. Means a lot coming from you.

Turbin3 - I'll agree with that. Not everything is going to amazing.

Dark_Horse - See above.

Louis! - Thanks. Glad you liked it.

BelgianGuy - I assume you are referring to the cement path? Although it is the primary path right now, I do plan to make some changes prior to the final release to help spread it out.

trav - I think it might be due to lack of peeps in the SS. This is in the back part of the park and I didn't want to wait for them to ride the coasters and then hit the flats. Thanks though for the feedback.

Thanks everyone.

James

Project Status #40 - 1/12/10

Well, work on the park these past couple of days has been very productive. The two show stadiums (Orca and Dolphin) have both been modified and are much closer to the scale I had hoped for. Orca Stadium is still the largest but it should be since it's the star attraction. All that said though, the Dolphin Stadium is nearly complete (90%) and should be ready to bring the dolphins to the park so they can be acclomated to the pools.

In addition to the stadiums being reworked, the entrance plaza is finished and I'm pretty happy with the end result. Finally, the the fith coaster is on site and although we are having some technical difficulties, the technition should be on site shortly to iron out the difficulties.

The below SS is of the entrance plaza with a glimps of the Orca Stadium entrance. As a point of reference, just to the right of this SS is the location of the 5th Coaster.

In other news, progress on the park will be spotty over the next few weeks as I will be in the process of moving so RCT time may be limited. All that said, I'm still looking for a 4-2-10 release date.

Nice screen.. I can say the architecture looks a little bit under-detailed, but it fits the overall style you have and it blends in with the park, so I wouldn't change it as it looks fine really..

Can you say how much % the overall progress is of the Ocean Adventures theme park?

SF

^ I would estimate around 75-80%. As for the lack of detail, my plan is to add some detail for now and then once it's finished, go back and spruce it up a bit. The last thing I want to do is to add too much detail now and then run out of objects. I still have a few major items to go in and they will take up a significant amount of objects. I'm hoping to have the park finished by mid March and then go back and add additional details prior to release. That said, if I run out, I know I'm at least happy with the entrace area as it is.

Thanks though.

James

Topic's one year anniversary!

I like the screen. Especially the top part of it.

^ I missed that completly. Wow, what a year it's been too since I started this topic. I'm sad though that I only had this SS to show on it's anniversary. Problem is I don't want to show anything else at this point so I'm affraid thats all I can do.

Oh well, perhaps the second year will be even better! One can only hope!

James

Not really sure what to think here because as of now it still looks like MMW2 rather than a different marine park.
