One more picture of this area, as it's around 90% done...
The name of the area is tentativly "La Ville Sur L'eau"...which is the freetranslation.com translation of City on Water from English to French. If someone out there who speaks French can provide a better translation, please do so, lol.
This picture is of one of the few larger buildings...this one is hiding the standard rct2 entrance. You also get a tinsy glimpse of the as-of-yet unnamed Invert Coaster. Suggestions welcome.

I actually like the bushes/gardens in that last picture. It looks pretty good, but I think the ice walls look like shit in that hole... -

Taller trees would do this some justice.
But the architecture is great, keep that stuff up.
...
Oh yeah, and landscaping (i.e. path height changes) would be nice. -
John Offline
I don't get it.
All of your stuff seems really similiar sans some color changes.
I'm also not liking the whole only-bushes thing. -

Mmmm.... I'd have to agree with John.
Btw, the translation is spot on, although you should capitilise the E in L'eau. -

I like it. I like how you have the path going under and the walls are the ice texture...it looks gret. -

I think if you put trees into the park it would take away from the 3-4 story buildings' height. Besides, I dont think i can see any trees that may go with this park and make it seem as or more elegant than it already is. -

I like the atmosphere but not really all of the parts that add up to make it. This is the kind of place that I feel like I would go into on an overcast day and fall asleep even though I would really rather stay awake, I fear of what would happen if I close my eyes for too long...
I don't know...
I like the atmosphere and the bigger buildings are nice too. The ice walls may be a bit too much but I'm not sure if it's really worth changing. Really it's not to bad, just my strange and thoughtful mood right now makes the world look different.

They got ugly and overused after the first park released with them.Rct Flame, you seen to always take pictures of a large amounts of water on screen.
I think it looks good. Simple, yet very pleasing to the eye. I say cut down on toon's bushes. Those are being so overused in everyone's parks it's getting very boring and starting to look ugly. I also hate those 1/4 trees with a passion.
Other than that, I think it's good. Keep up the good work.

It's all blue and white for a reason...ask Gymkid, he's seen it "in action". Other colors break up the mood and feel of the rest of the area in game. -

I like the blue and white, which IMO makes the area look awesome. Reminds me of your older work, which is good. The entrance is very simple like you said but I think it works very well....The tower in the middle is so simple yet looks very good. I wish to see more of that coaster in the last screen, im sure its a great. As always, keep up the great work and keep us posted.

I agree that the ice walls look out of place. I'd use something else instead. My only other complaint is the lack of footpath objects. If you don't want them, I understand, but I think it would look better with a few benches and trash cans. -

I know the ice looks a little odd, but I'm not using the rock. That leaves me with the redwood and blackwood...and those ruin the area...I know you guys don't like the ice, but it's my best option since they decided to be stupid and take out all the land types from rct1.
I'm going to add some lights, but hardly any benches...but there will be some in the more concentrated areas.
Thx for the comments. -

honestly those screens suck and you showed way too much flat water in them, but the whole area as a whole is nice and you acheived your waterry effect well.
Good invert, too. -
Rct Flame Offline
Well, I guess those screens don't portray the area well then...lol.
The "La Ville Sur L'Eau" is 100% done, and I'm now working on the small kiddie island...It's very small and cramped to get a carnival type feeling...not to mention very colorful Screens soon.
I'm looking for about 1 or 2 more people besides gymkid to look at the park and give me some feedback on what's been done so far. PM me if you'd like to. -

Sorry I haven't talked to you lately.. I can never catch you on AIM. I still want to look it over. BTW - I like the question of the moment in your sig. -

Good to see you back Flame...
The 1st and 3rd screens look good, and remind me of your linear style that I've missed recently. The 2nd screen shows a bit too much water (shocker me saying that), but it kind of gives it a semi-venician feel to it....at least for water that is. I like the towers near the entrance....

So.. yep. This park is still pretty good.
I like this park because it has one of the most distinct styles I've ever seen. Nothing about it is random (except for the ice.. which should probably be covered up by architecture). I LIKE all the bushes and no trees.. just adds to the style. It remidns me a lot of a bramble patch, and it would be fun to have a coaster soaring over it.
Good work......
