New Element Newsflash

Fall 2018 Edition

H2H8 Awards
It's been a while ago, but we all understandably needed some time off from H2H8. Now that the dust has settled, it is time to reflect on all the good stuff that H2H8 has brought. In other words, it's time for the awards! The format will be different from previous years. Some categories have been retired, but some new categories have been added as well. Find out more here.

H2H8/8 Wrap-up
H2H8's little brother also deserves to be wrapped up, so here we go. More awards!

Seaquarium Curaçao

Old Releases - Danimation Spotlights
Lately we've been uncovering a lot of Danimation spotlights that were previously missing from the database. The spotlights below can now be found in the database. There's more on the way, but we haven't found all Danimation spotlights yet, nor do we have a complete list of all spotlights. If you were around during those years, and think that maybe you can help us out with identifying and verifying some stuff, please let us know!

Busch Gardens Millenium by Adam Neely/Pawn (1999)
Golden Age Gardens by Greg Moore (1999)
Lost Worlds by Duke02/colby (2000)

(Other) Old Releases Overview
Sometimes, parks are in the database without having a savegame attached. Sometimes, parks should be in the database because they had an official release at some point, but aren't. We regularly add such parks, again for the sake of having a rich and complete database of parks. The following old releases have been added during the past three months:

Palm Springs Amusement Park by Foozycoaster (2001)
Glasshouse Gardens by Kai (2002)

With NE5, we've gained the option to give old accolades, those won before the accolade panel existed, a score. A comprehensive list of which parks have received their score can be found here, as well as a list of parks that have yet to get their score. The latter is especially relevant for panelists. Since the last update, these old accolades have received a new score:
