    Prince of Persia: the Sands of Time

    After a short layoff from RCT, I have returned and decided to finish my Prince of Persia park. All the ideas I had for the park are coming back to me and the are being incorporated into RCT better than I could have hoped. What I have going now could be my best RCT2 work yet. My architecture has improved a WHOLE LOT, but I am still working on my coaster skills. The one in the pcitures has stats of 8, 9 ,9. Not to bad. Tell me what you think of the screen. Comments and Suggestions are very much appreciated.

    I love it! The bushes and trees look pretty random, maybe you could tidy those up a bit. Maybe you could do something with the landscaping around the water edge too. Rocks perhaps? Sand? Oh and it would be cool if you had some pits under the coaster tracks with spikes in them and stuff. That would be very Prince of Persia I think.

    One more thing to consider. I really like the buildings, but there's a tendency sometimes to just theme coasters with trees and bushes and keep them seperate from the architecture. I guess this is how most coasters are in real parks so that's why it's so common. I've done the same thing myself many times. But the more I think about it, I prefer to see ride layouts which have buildings and such as part of the theming. Especially when you have buildings like these which look great. For a Persian theme I would think colorful cloth awnings and guard towers would be appropriate. It's just a suggestion. I like what you're doing but you could make it even more exciting that way I think.

    Thanks for the reply Ed. All of your suggestions are great. I want to put pits with spikes in the park but what should i use. I tried using wooden poles colored gray, but it doesn't look right. Suggestions on how to do it would be great. The guard towers will be a nice addition along with the cloth awnings. Can't get more Persian than that, can you? I have some other screens I will put up soon so you can get a feel for more of the park.

    As mentioned by the two parkmaking legends above, this is amazing....I especially love those tall portculis doors, they look incredible. That coaster looks quite nice too. Just the right amount of theming, nothing is overdone there. The screen really does have a Prince of Persia feel to it.....nice work bender, you should stick to RCT2.... ;)

    That is great it looks like parts of the levels like those poles and the narrow ledges.

    Here is another screen of the unnamed coaster. In the pic you can see my attempt at a pit of spikes. What do you think. Comments on the entire screen are appreciated.

    Both look pretty good. I would suggest more landscaping though, more jagged land. The architecture is bitty, which I like, as it's not something you see every day. In the first screen, I think you should decorate the entrace path a bit more. 8-)

    It looks very 'empty' through the arches. You could put some barrels inside to solve that. I also think some patches of sand around might enhnce the atmosphere.

    I dont mean to beat, but i dont like the white rails on you coaster, grey or maybe the light brown would look better?

    I like the architecture style though, it has a nice feel to it.
