(Archive) Advertising District / Bayfront Park

I don't really get the point of the waterslide ride track structure in the lower left corner. I'm guessing you wanted to make it look like a tree - but it still looks kind of strange. I'm not sure quite how you could improve that.. maybe use some regular scenery? I've never used rides to build anything other than well, rides.. so maybe I'm not the one to give suggestions.

Still looks great though.. your overall strongpoint is your landscaping - I think you're one of the best on the site.

Well it's still Kumba's park - and I think he's doing a more than competant job of interpreting the theme. I'll see what I can do about touching up the bushes on the paths and try out a few ideas of my own. I think it looks pretty good overall though. This is just the first run through. Better to wait and see what the final product will look like. And the look of a park is not everything anyway. I think this is a really cool idea and it keeps the consistency and believability of the theme.

well all three screens are good.
but the pipe sections in the latest one dont look rite they clutter it to much, i take it there meant to be tables?.
but the tree made from coaster pieces looks good.
not bad, oh and btw imo the pink flowers dont fit in to well.

This is looking brilliant, the last few screens are lovely. The turn on the coaster is brilliant. Erwindale is looking pretty creative to me although it's been done before. You and Ed have come up with some good ideas.

Well done

It looks good, even if the screen seems to be taken from a strange angle.
However, it looks a bit too artifical to be Erwindale. I'd suggest you round off the path corners with hacked bushes and flowers in a to give it a more natural feel. The rope fence is a bit overused, maybe get rid of some of it.
For the path-steps, I think you should use either that mine train idea you had or the normal dirt path if you have it, it looks less square.
On that sign, maybe blood red would be better because I'm frankly really tired of that dull red. Actually, this is still just brown/dull red/dull green... Except for the flowers of course.
Those red tables could use some breaking up to, maybe just delete a few, like in the middle of a row. The green ones are very nice.
That's mostly personal opinions though, so you probably shouldn't listen to me and just keep doing what you are doing.
The actual idea is brilliant.

Also, damn you and your parkmaking speed.

rctfan1556 - yeah that part of the screen is unfinished

pymguy - if Ed wanted to take over and do it all, i would not stop him

slob - hold on, the trees are fine, their are a few baron aeras in Erwindale (H2H2) so im putting in a few in this park. and to say this has "no creativity" is foolish, me and Ed have a lot of ideas for this that were not in Erwindale Forest, the theme will change somewhat, i mean really with Ed on board how can something have "no creativity"?

dragonfly - looks like the waterpark umm... ok, how about... no. hehe

jacko - yeah its a tree root

Ed -

Leighx - what pipes? the ones mixed in to the trees are tree stumps. the ones in the stands are staying, i like them alot. and i cant do an erwindale theme without the pink flowers, maybe i could just use the other type, but i don't know.

DJ - all good ideas. keep posting them, i think you give good advice.

thanx for all the 300 some-odd replys, you guys are really helping. another screen in a few days.

That is impossible for me to do anything like that in my life, this park= OMG

UPDATE

Ok heres a new forest screen, its a fairy, Bever, and Lumberjack themed Jr Coaster, well i think? i don't really know yet, i talked to Ed and he said theirs an order you want to use when building something, it was 2 steps and i forgot, so oh well this is what i did without much of an idea why or what. i think we will have it makeing sence in the end tho.

It's too much of an attempt to recreate Erwindale in RCT2. I applaud the effort, and like the pathing ideas, but it just doesn't look that good with those treehouses. They don't fit in too well, and kinda stick out a bit too much.

Aside from that, you've added a nice little atmosphere, for the first time possibly in this park, and I hope the section turns out well.

ya...i dont know how to say this. Erwindale had this bright elfy look to it, this looks like brown miney theme. Good try I guess...i cant give you any real suggestions other than maybe brighter?

wow very good..
¾à°£ ¾îÁö·¯ ...

I like how that tree house is built and the atmosphere it provides but Erwindale was a little bit brighter than this, so just add some brighter things along with the elfy feel like Gymkid suggusted and this will turn out great.

you guys are pretty much right so far, with treehouse' i have done some really nice ones, just my screens seem not to be showing their best angles. yep it needs color, that Jr coaster should end up yellow, and when we get to the element duel you'll see alot. I would not worry about that.

Wow! It's a cross between Kumba and Coaster Ed. I wouldn't believe unless I'd seen it.

Nice.

Incredible, awe-inspiring piece of work! Fantastic!

The tree house looks pretty wierd with all the train tracks and waterslides but if its your style do it.

Hmmm...I can barely see what the fuck I'm looking at. It's nice, and I congradulate your effort, but it's just too busy. But the mine train steps are lookin' good.

its not bad but ur other screens are much better there is to much going on with all the coaster track peices.(i know there screney) but it just looks cluttered.

Its nice but if your going for a forest theme dont you want it to be more solid i mean you have all these random junk pieces of scenery its looking more like a junk yard than a forest/tree house theme.

Work on it dude!

Kumba- I personally think you are doing a better job than people are giving you credit for. I'm glad you brought back the Erwindale Forest theme because I really wanted it expanded ever since I saw the original H2H park by Coaster Ed. And the fact that you are working with Ed really impresses me too. As some have said the screens needs to be a bit brighter but that's really all. The flowers are great BTW, they really boost your atmosphere up to levels I never thought I'd see in a Kumba park.
