The trackicture is very nice in this screen, but also I admire that rock like formation in the bottom left of the screen. Really, this is all looking nice as always, James.

Thanks. The rock work in this area has been a real pain in the arse but I'm happy with the result

Great!
Is the park still peepable? I can't see any on the screen.

Yes it is.

It's a classic screen and you've used some objects really well here. I love the pirate netting that holds the stadium up. From a guests point of view thats an amazing show.

Thanks J K.

Really nice, I'm loving the ship and the bobsled roofing. Also, great landscaping to the left behind the stadium, looks very natural.

Thanks. The ship was my first attempt at doing one and I'm proud of the end result. Glad other like it as well.

Nice work! Looks really realistic, like all maps in this project actually...

Why're the rapids being pulled from the park? I think they'd fit into the theme/type of park much more than some of the coasters on the list...

The functionality of the rapids did not work out as I had hoped and due to the concept that was in place, it just didn't work wouthout the finctionality so they were pulled. Don't worry though, there is a water ride in it's place now.

Very nice Pirate Ship, there. I really like the use of the bob tracks as well. You never let me down with these updates!

Thanks

Happy Holloween!

It's been along time since I've had a park that is this close to being finished as HOA is nearly finished at around 95% complete. I also forgot how painful it is to actually start the closing touches on a park. So many things to do that not many will notice but are important to me. Two small areas remain and then it's off to add some details with the remaining objects although it's going to be close. All in all, I think it could be finished in a few weeks.

Here is the current overview of the park.

Amazing job. Finishing touches sure are painful. But chances are people will notice and it just bites your ass.

Keep going dude!!! It's gonna be well worth it and hopefully this years last spotlight!!!

Fantastic stuff man, so excited to see a new full scale park from you.

I'm not sure if this is a spotlight, but it's going to be great for sure! I can't wait to see how much you've improved.

This is the beginning of a new era for you! (well, not yet. first you have to actually finish it )

Well, after nearly 2 years of work, HOA is finished and has been submitted! I forgot how much work it is to prepare a park for completion. That said, I'm very proud of the park and can now focus on NWA.

Speaking of NWA, it's back with CP6 to finish up the third coaster so I can continue to work on the area. Really looking forward to getting my hands on the map once again and start making some much needed progress.

In other news, HED saw some work this weekend although the map still has a long way to go, it was fun to get back to it.

The final bit of news is the construction on the projects newest resort map. Starting to get some basic ideas in place and as with the others, should be fun to build.

Awesome!! Real Excited for this one, especially wondering whether it will take you to (another) spotlight.

Yay, submission!

I'm almost positive you'll earn your second Spotlight. I cannot wait to open this for the first time!

Can I just say you're a machine...

God I see this project seeing 2spotlights or more if I'm honest if NWA is going to be better than HOA I'm really looking forward to this

Good luck with the voting!

Now that HOA is finished, work has been screaming along over at NWA as the parks third coaster is in place and complete. This Mack Launch Coaster is yet another exceptional coaster designed by CP6 and a great addition to the coaster linup for the park.

Below you see the station along with some of the surrounding architecture.

It's funny how the effect of having a park that has taken nearly 2 years to complete can remove such a weight off ones shoulders as I'm really having fun with the game again.

Fantastic!

I ahve always loved the blue/teal and yellow color schemes, and this screen shows exactly why. Can't wait for HOA!

It looks so.. sterile to me.

It looks so.. sterile to me.

Yeah.. It's just that over abundance of that bright colored roof. It reminds me of hospital walls. Ugh.. Maybe consider a recolor on some of the roofs?

agree with Fizzix

I actually love that colors

the screens on this page are great... looking forward to the layout by cp6.
-JDP

My only complaint is that everything has the same colours, try to vary a little more on the roofs and such maybe because it looks a little obrign atm cuz of all the same colours,

otherwise nice screen and glad to see you're building again.

If there were peeps, that might be my favorite screen from you ever.
