(Archive) Advertising District / Luminous Cove

Whoa! The colours are a bit trippy but since there are giant mushrooms in the picture I presume that thats what your aiming for.

It's called luminous cove so im guessing there's gonna be a cove?

Yep there is a cove, two peninsulars and an island. This area does meet the water, but I'm just building it up towards it.

You are using the same bushes and trees to much, get some variation in there also. It is bright..thats for sure. I like it but the architecture needs more detail and less "blocky".

Excellent work on this park man. The invert looks awesome dude, keep it up!

It looks good. Your missing benches trash cans, and lampposts though.

(Please note that the buildings in the background are incomplete and are still having little details adding to them, such as hanging flowers, shutters ect.

I would rather see a complete picture than an incomplete one.
That could be just my personal preference though.

Sorry for the lack of updates. I finished of the Enchanted World area. The reason for the lack of updates is because of my Jurassic area. It was only until I completed the jurassic area after two weeks of work I decided it was craptacular so I buldosed the lot. The screens I have to show are incomplete and there has been no themeing whatsoever. However, after hours of using 8cars trainer I am happy with my Rocket coaster. This ride will be themed to calypso with realistic custom supports and I will post some more screens of it asap. Please dont comment on landscaping or themeing, just coaster design. Thanks.

wow thats pretty awesome. is the tophat made with impulse track?

Wow. Definately one of my favorite parks in the Advertising District. I would, however, make the impulse track start at the same place as the LIM track.

I think it looks a little cheap..i dunno..all the merged track everywhere its kinda sloppy to me..it looks good but raise the landscape and everything, it looks good a solid layout but like i said its sloppy.

dude,that is one cool hack.
The park is looking good, but still too much green.

Please dont comment on landscaping or themeing, just coaster design. 

The coaster looks good, but maybe post a finished screen so we can comment on everything...

i tried doing the same thing around when it was discovered that you could merge with the 8cars trainer. i kept getting trapper errors every time i tested it.

Hide the slope to verticle hill (the plain LIM piece) in a building or something... otherwise it's pulled off really well.

Very very cool. I love the theme, and the look of everything. The coaster looks good so far, you can't really go wrong with something based on Nemesis. Great name also.

OR he could just build with intamin track there...

The design looks good BTW.

As others have said, the track merging can be neatened up a bit, even though I see how if you extend the impulse track that it would be lower than the rocket coaster track, so you'll have to maybe change the angles on the impulse track a little to match it up in the end. I would suggest using just the impulse track for the inclines, launch, and the top hat but not the brakes, because in real life Intamin go to the basic bi-rail track when they have the brakes. I would then suggest to use one of the mini coaster tracks for brakes because on rocket coasters, the brake fins insert into the bottom of the train from the bottom instead of the train having fins that go into the side like the mega coasters. Also for reasons regarding the launch, rocket coasters have only 5 cars per train. Layout looks pretty good although very similar to Xcelerator; I know if I were visiting this park in real life that I would want something more different, maybe something like a cross between Xcelerator and Storm Runner or something different even from those two.

Time for a themed screeny:

A suggestion: maybe use mini rollercoaster track as launchtrack instead of using intamin boxtrack. Flat track would be a little bit better.
