The depth here is amazing.
The screens I mean.

Sounds cool, wish we could get a screen of Machu Piccu

You normally would, but the area is soo small that one screen would show most of it. In the end, I might just end up showing you all Harvester, as it really doesn't show much of the actual area itself.

Update 17

Construction in El Dorado has halted due to a.......problem... of some sorts. Its minute...but its still a problem. Since I can't figure out what to do with that stupid area, I will just move on a complete other areas while brainstorming.

I struggled to do this....but I will show you a full Machu Picchu screen. Thing about this area is....its soo small that one screen tends to ruin the effect (well the surprise factor when you see it in game). However, I have not showed you a couple of key elements of the area (including some cool pillars....youll have to wait and see). Harvester is not shown and will not be, as I originally planned. As for the actual construction of the area, its coming along nicely. Knowing that both El Dorado and Machu Picchu are both Aztec cities, I had to sort of change Macchu Pichu a bit. While El Dorado is the 'capital' city, the golden bold and ostentatious city, Machu Picchu is more of a rural village....sort of a farming community that does mostly harvests and trading. In other words, Machu Picchu has a bit more grit than El Dorado, and really is not as fabulous looking (well....in terms of boldness). Anyways, on to the screenshot.





Ok, couple of things I would like to point out. In the top left corner, you see Chava's Herbal Tavern...which is the cut out building I showed you all earlier in the thread...only now you see it interacting with the rest of the area. Next thing....Auhtil's Coco Bean...which is the shop containing a deck supported by wooden stilts...towards the right side of the screen. In the extreme lower left hand corner, you see the entrance to Harvester...and furthermore you see part of its theming...farming platforms. Another area of not is the hanging reeds...but you all have seen that before. Another thing to note is the wooden logs (single rail suspended coaster), but thats nothing new.


So far, the area is about 75% done......and moreover you all have seen 75% of what IS done in this screen. This is the only screenshot update for Machu Picchu, and the final one will consist of the shop and ride names. That is all, enjoy.

Fatha for parkmaker of the year!

this shit rocks man... it got a very nice RCT2 feeling IMO...
keep on going...

just loving the supports under the balcony

Please, ignore the RCT2 comment above .


I think it looks great Fatha. But since I don't play LL much, I am confused at how you got the barrels to stack. Do you have to do it with a trainer or something?

Absolutely incredible. I think this is my favorite screen so far, everything just works beautifully. I love those farming platforms...

Oh Fatha'...PT is gonna be VERY interesting. This is awesome.

words can not describe this

Visual orgasm. Simply beautiful. It doesn't have as an immersive atmosphere than the screens of City of God, I think it was called (). But, still as amazing and the level of detail is astounding for an LL park.

words can not describe this

Indeed, there is no vocabulary for such beauty.

EDIT: Jon, don't be so silly this has MORE atmosphere and immersion than CoG imo.

El Dorado is the Ican capital though isn't it?

I actually agree with Jon that CoG is more immersive, but this is just lovely to look at.

i've had my doubts about areas of this park, but that screenshot is absolutely beautiful. best screen so far. hell, it's one of the best ll screenshots i've seen this year.

fantastic work, fatha; i'm now completely interested in this park. can't wait for it.

can't really say i like it, but the complexity is insane. so props on that. it does have something. yet it doesn't drag me like, say, horizons.
whatever, i'm very happy to see one of the last strong ll players active.

Simply Amazing. Thanks for showing us a screen of Machu Piccu like i requested

You should've cropped it lol

I love it though. You could probably release this now, only 55% done or watever you said it was, and it'd be spotlight as-is. lol

I agree. That is fantastic work. The detail is simply stunning.

Hot shit, that's good!

Continually pushing the limits.

You can expect that theme to be repeated about 49583 times when I write the Spotlight summary whenever this park gets finished. I love how this blurs the line between LL and RCT 2. Unlike some, I think that's a good thing. It's strict control and discipline coupled with amazing creativity.

You know what I think of this, Fatha. You are absolutely amazing. With your addition next year, USC will prolly boast the best RCT'ing lineup of any college.

Correction. I'll be writing that one.
You should just get started with that new update instead...

Knowing that both El Dorado and Machu Picchu are both Aztec cities...

I guess you learn something new every day...
