Screamin' Adventures [RCT2]
coasterbill replied to molemaster43's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
I think this park has potential, but I agree about that building. I think you may want to try some pointed roofs and windows... and see if you can avoid making the building a perfect L shape. If a building is going to be that big it should really have some intricate details so it doesn't dominate the entire area like it is now. -
Best B&M Standup
coasterbill replied to pkdcoaster's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Of all of the standups I've ridden (Mantis, Vortex (Carowinds), Riddler and Shockwave (Obviously not a B&M)) the only one I didn't hate was Riddler. -
[RCT2] Breckenridge Park
coasterbill replied to TheDarkMaxim's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
So they could have any 2 rides they wanted and they picked a Boomerang? Lol maybe it could be put in at Six Flags New England next to the other two Boomerangs. -

Great job with this park! I'll be checking this thread regularly. -
What's the worst station you've been in
coasterbill replied to tribar's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Trailblazer at Hershey is beyond stupid... When you enter the station there are a million switchbacks on the left and a million switchbacks on the right but they're not for the front and back of the train because once you get to the end of the switchbacks you're back in the middle anyway and can just go wherever you feel like. X Flight (Geauga Lake) and Riddlers Revenge are (were) probably the biggest clusterfuck stations I've ever seen with a just a mess of people with no idea where to go. And I thought about mentioning El Toro but actually I love that station. It looks great, and for some reason everyone is afraid to pass the almighty garbage can that separates the front and back of the train, so you never have to wait more than one or two cycles for the back. -

Pretty neat. When I'm feeling extra nerdy I do this in RCT2 using the synchronize with adjacent station button as the dispatch button (leaving it checked until I want to dispatch) and lowering the restraints by setting the minimum waiting time and then unchecking the box when I want to lower them. If you have the adjacent station box checked, the restraints lower but the train won't dispatch. Sad I know... -
[RCT2] Coupon's Work Thread

Free Fall looks awesome! I love the "test seat" as well. Great work as always! -
What are some loud rides and coasters?
coasterbill replied to JFrombaugh's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Demon Drop is pretty loud... Chiller at Great Adventure used to be loud as well. -
[RCT2] Breckenridge Park
coasterbill replied to TheDarkMaxim's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
I like it but I'm not a fan of the bridge... try making it one bridge and maybe adding some additional scenery to it. Otherwise... awesome job! -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
coasterbill replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Cedar Point hasn't removed a coaster since 1978, and all of their coasters remain pretty popular so I see no reason why they should remove one now. -

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
coasterbill replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Didn't B&M design the trains for Psyclone? I think that's the most they ever did with a wood coaster but I could be wrong. Anyway if Cedar Point wants to go the wood coaster route, just make everyone happy and put in an Intamin pre-fab. I don't even think coaster enthusiasts would be able to complain about something that awesome. -
Favorite Togo coaster (is it Bandit?)
coasterbill replied to pkdcoaster's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The only 2 Togo coasters I've ridden are Shockwave at KD and Viper at GADV. I've ridden about 150 coasters and those are probably the 2 worst coasters I've ever ridden (although Mind Eraser at SFNE is close). I can't say the company sucks after only riding 2 rides but they both sucked hard. Viper will always have a special place in my nightmares.
