(Archive) Advertising District / Disneyland Down Under

this is my first ever rct2 park, sorta a continuation of my rct1 park, disneyland australia

here is a screen thats got part of the castle, the emporium and the opera house,

disney pic

the park is located just north of the gold coast on the park strip ( about 5km from WB movieworld and 3km from Dramworld at Comera)

This is the first or what will become a major resort and will bring all of what the disney comaney do best, MAGIC

also if its not to much trouble can i get some feed back on the little bit u saw? thanks

Doesn't look like it is in Australia, but it looks nice nonetheless.

Good job.

here are some shots of mainstreet its nealy done and also has backstage areas

they r at this adress if i did it rite!

Its deffinately not like australia so you might want to change the name. The archimetecture is good except i think some of the colours are a bit off. Apart from that its good.

Turned

um... colorful

Hey, what are you trying to make, another Tilted Acres?

It looks nice, though a bit colorful, like Guljam said (that might have been the first relevant comment I've seen him make ). I think you put an interesting spin on Main Street. IMO, it looks more contemporary than past Main Streets, and it sort of lacks a charm, though I can't exactly explain that part. Nice work, though. I think my only gripe is that it relies on custom scenery a bit too much, which creates a bit of tension in the work.

first link doesn't work.

thanks for the comments, how can i make it look more australian?

Nice park, but I have to agree with Freak and Turned1 it is not like Austrailia.

The archy is great and I hope to see the rest of it.

Loopy.

first link doesn't work.

Yet if you could actually be bothered to click the second one you'd find the pictures there anyway!

I don't think you need to make it look more australian, really. Theme parks are THEMES, and try as hard as they can to look like somewhere else. Actual location is irrelevant IMO, unless you are specifically trying to use the types of trees/land formations found in a certain place. But I don't look for that in parks, so I don't care

I like it. But I think you should use more gardens along with those nice single-tile foliage bits.

I was wondering just what Australia looks like? I always thought they had a fairly wide variety of ecosystems, so I think whatever base landscape you choose to use should work out just fine. I always find it amusing how the masses on these boards seem to jump on the first couple of negative comments in a thread and echo them over and over again. 'I agree, the path choice sucks' or 'I agree, the tree selection sucks.' It get's tired after a while. Get an original thought people!

As for the pics, I think they are looking quite nice so far. I would like to see a little more greenery separating some of the building from the paths (just a personal preference). It definitely has a Disney feel to it tho.

yep everyone has to try to emulate meretrix's style...

It looks good, but some parts a abit too bright...

The area he described in the first post, near the Gold Coast of Australia, really doesn't have a look to it that we usually think of. When people see Australia, they automatically think either Great Barrier Reef or the outback. Australia is an extremely diverse country, much like the US. I think the park is fine, considering there are no trees that are native to Australia included in the game. Other than the flora and fauna, Australia isn't much different than the US. Besides, many theme parks, especially Disney parks (except DCA), don't have much connection themewise to where it is located.

The park looks pretty good. I would just suggest that you don't use pink/magenta for the color of the wood; it doesn't seem natural or realistic. I think you are also missing one of those blue corrugated arch shape rooves on your entrance gates. Keep up the good work. I hope to see some ride based screens sometime soon.

BTW, are you using WW, or is it just imported scenery from the net?

I think that's unfair. Meretrix captured Disney better than anyone before him, so I would expect any RCT2 Disney park to resemble TA. Where the skill will be revealed is how it comes together as a whole park and the theming of the individual attractions and areas. Building on what others have done before you is part of the development of the game and your own personal style.

Why the FUCK do there have to be so many goddamned Disney parks?






....anyway, I'm not really liking it actually, personal preferance I guess...

But the architecture is good, albeit a bit like Tilted Acres. Tilted Acres was a good park, though, so a lot of people are gong to end up copying it, just as with every other fad.


I like the classic feel to it, the actual building style to it, that it doesn't look as if it'd collapse if the buildings were on their own..

Yep, i agree with TT, you all should stop agreeing with the person above you and get an original idea!

Screens are ok, a lot like tilted arces, like everyone else sail, not necessarily bad, just repetetive. Too colorful for my tastes, but good, i guess.

BTW, this post is a n00b magnet! so many n00bs posted here!

i think it looks great! it looks very disney and if thats what your going for (which you are) then its great. who cares if it looks like meretrixs park, if it looks good, it doesnt matter. is this a WW park? i cant tell these days with all the custom scenery. i really hope its not so i can download it(i wasnt able to download tilted acres). so good luck with this park and i hope it turns out as good as its comming along.

thanks for the comments, i live in brisbane and agree that australia is a divese country, we dont just have bush and beach we also go big citys, farms and all that stuff the usa has

the park is set near the gold coast and the area is about 20km inland from the coast, in lots of farmland and estates so thats where the infulence comes from.

we have 3 other parks along the m1 (motorway that links brisbane to gold coast) We have Warner bros movieworld, dreamworld and wet'n'wild plus seaworld about 15 km away.

the gold coast is queenslands most visited tourist destination just beating the great barrier reef, so there is a it of info where this park is created.

thank you for all the comments

But is it WW?

I've been to the Gold Coast a couple of times, it's sweet!

But yeah, I think your park looks awesome, I dont care what people say, but I think Disney parks are the best, keep em' coming! p.s. I love the archy
