Ahh I knew there was Mala and Nevis influence in there It looks like a ton of fun dude, I hope you do a whole park like this!
It's a 128² map, but not everything will be like this. The map is a stream of consciousness, partially explaining the park's name. Right now I'm building this more realistic looking public transport hub. Sounds weird but I like it so far.
That's where you go wrongI'm just trying to picture this in reality
You're right about the fountain. I shouldn't have done that. I think in the end it's not as hectic as the screens shows. Just wait because I'm not changing it anywayI like that. It really feels old school. I'd prefer it if you toned down the "hectic" a little bit more though, and made it a bit more aesthetically pleasing. That would really feel like a proper throw-back. I love what you did with the waterfalls, but that fountain in the middle is just adding uneccessary clutter. Just remember that its good to have some bare spots to contrast the crazy bits.
It's not a serious project... It's a step down from Giari Palms, which was a step down from The Escapist Experience. I just go with the flow and see where it'll take me. Maybe I can revisit areas when the map is full.I'm sorry Liam, but I don't like this at all. I think it's a good thing that you (or members in general) are occasionally going back to the building style of a long time ago, but that doesn't mean you have to forget or ignore all the improvements that are made to that style during the developent of LL. Huge, impressive fantasy coasters? Cool. Flashy colours? Cool. Unrealistic landscaping? Okay. Chaotic architecture? Okay. But to me the foliage, the yellow grid roofs, the composition, the paths, the column towers are just plain ugly. I don't dislike it for looking outdated, I dislike it for being way too messy and aesthetically not pleasing at all to me, while I love your other LL work.
What is it with you people having problems with my screens? Usually I get no complaints.Wish the screen was showing.
Is that sarcasm?I feel like some of the members here are real good at sarcasm
Thanks for the comments and the feedback! -

Oh of your LL park? Nice.
It's too messy for me of course but still pretty cool to look at. -

I still cannot believe this is from 2012 ...
Would fit amazing into the classic masterpieces from the NE history threads.
However, I have to agree with posix, it is a little too messy for my likes. -

Stream of consciousness is my favorite type of...pretty much everything. So I think it's a great idea! -

So much better than you previous update. This made an instant wow impression.
I love the urban atmosphere, created with so few tools.
This might be my favorite LL screen ever.. -

Lol, I thought this screen would be a major disappointment for you guys. I'm glad it's not, but I'm afraid to show the next update I yet have to build. How can I top this? -

The first screen is great for that style, but I'm not huge on it. The second screen is incredible though. Really, really incredible. -
