Parc de Chateau (RCT2 Park)
zburns999 replied to zburns999's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Its time for an update. I have done some random minor improvements, such as a theater for shows, a new restaurant, and a kiddy car ride. But, I have also built a new coaster, called "Creature du Lac." Its a standard Vekoma headbanger, with five inversions, and a nice setting over a lake, hence the name. It is inspired by Goudurix at Parc Asterix, which I think is one of the most amazing looking rides on Earth. Here are some pics of the new coaster... Here you can see the twisted layout over the lake. In my rush to start the park, I forgot a support blocker when I added the scenery, so I hope that explains the reason for the random poles here and there under the track. Here is the station and queue line. I spent a REALLY long time (almost three hours) on the supports/station/queue on this thing. The turn around after the lift can easily be seen towering above the trees from the yet to be translated Spirit of France section, and Tonnere Francais's queue. A new overview of the park. If you are observant, you can see the theater right before the bridge that leads to Tonnere Francais, and the new restaurant on the riverbank across from Sinistre. Thats all for now.

What would rides be like on the moon?
zburns999 replied to Thrillrider15's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Sorry, Ive gotta go off topic one more time. I do think the world will end. Its in my religion. However, also in my religion, it is said that no one will know the day or the time...possibly meaning we will be surprised. Honestly, I live every day knowing that a meteor could kill us, or a plague could break out, but that really doesnt effect my life-style. I think that this thread has been very entertaining and funny by the way . As for a ride on the moon, I have often thought about it. When you watch clips of Neil Armstrong on the Moon, he is moving very slow.(lets not go off topic about how there never has been a man on the moon ) I would think you would get some major airtime on the Moon, but it would be so slow and gentle, it would be boring. -

This thread has disturbed me in so many ways Its also gotten so off topic. By the way, Wes, I honestly cant tell if your being sarcastic or not. -
Your favorite track support!
zburns999 replied to jarmor's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^I love that. From certain angles, a massive wall of supports actually prevents you from seein parts of the lift/station. -
Its looking good for North Easter PA this Friday. Wintry mix is the best thing the weather channel can predict, and thats what it says right now. If we are off, it will be the second friday-snowday in a row!

Parc de Chateau (RCT2 Park)

^^Pepsi machines came from a previous download. Im sure there are many places you can get them though. I've seen them in a few parks. -
New Park...
zburns999 replied to BiCoastal Kid's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
That bobsled coater is one of the nicest looking rides I've ever seen. It is very reminicent of a Busch park for some reason. Anyway, keep up the great work! -
Parc de Chateau (RCT2 Park)
zburns999 replied to zburns999's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Well, I got in a solid three or four hours of work between last night and tonight, so I decided that I might as well post some screen shots of my progress... Here you can see "Tonnere Francais," or "French Thunder," which is a wooden coaster I have recently built. As of now, it is not connected to any paths, but it soon will be. The area of the park it is in is dedicated to the spirit of France! I went all out with the "French Flag" themed station. I rwally liked how Sinistre's station came out, so I wanted to do something similar, yet totally different. Also in a new area of the park, is "Fleuve Rapide," or "Quick River." Its a nice rapids ride that will take riders on some of the nicest scenery in the park. Overall, I am very happy with how this came out. I went for an un-covered station to make it realistic. There is even a random ride op there ready to dispatch rafts! I have to say, I have never had this much fun making a park. Im pretty much sticking to a plan I had before I started, and I have hit many road blocks, but part of the fun is figuring out a way to get over them. By the way, "Tonnere Francais's," station took me over an hour to build. That's all for now! Feel free to comment and critiscize! -

Nice. Gotta love the random skeleton on the mini golf course -
^No, looks like V2 at MarineWorld.

Although I've never tried it first hand, I've heard Cesari's (I think thats what its called :? ) at Knoebels is really good, possibly the best there is.

^Relax man, it was just a joke. Its not offensive if you take it as one. -
Parc de Chateau (RCT2 Park)
zburns999 replied to zburns999's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
^I don't like car rides either. Especially the RCT2 ones. Anyway, I knew I needed a large family ride that would look nice, and I like how it turned out. By the way, thanks for the compliments! -

Ok, its time for an update. I have only built one ride, but it took me a while, and it takes up a lot of space. If you turn left just before the bridge over the river, you will find "Tour de Jardin," tucked away in large garden on the edge of the park's property. It's an antique car ride, that I think turned out pretty good. Next to "Tour de Jardin", I have started work on another section, which will probably not hold any rides, mainly just shops and restaurants. Anyway, here are some pics... One view of the ride in action Another view of the gardens The gardens and the beginning of a new section are visible here The park so far That's all for now. Feel free to comment and critiscize! -
^^Thanks! Thats deffinitely sounds good. Oh, and no need translating, thats my job. Itll be a challenge, but for some reason I like translating languages and stuff. Anyway, thanks for the ideas. I should have almost enough stuff now.

Six Flags Great Lakes
zburns999 replied to Milkchan's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Thats deffinitely the most unique entry way I have ever seen. I like it so far. Just make sure to add trees to fill up blank space. It always looks better that way. -
Parc de Chateau (RCT2 Park)
zburns999 replied to zburns999's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
^^Dont worry, I'm going for a section park. There will paths extending off to the right and left just before the bridge, which will also be surrounded with architechture similar to that on the midway. -
Ok, well when I finished Six Flags, I promised everyone that I was going to build something big, and not post any updates. Well, I soon got bored of the park, and decided to try another big park. Once again, I failed. I have just started another park, this time of a smaller scale. I am going to post updates this time, hopefully as a way to build everyones interest enough that I actually have a reason to work on the park. With that being said, here is what I have so far... This park is supposed to be in a dense forest somewher in France. The park will have five major coasters. I am going for a very themed, good looking approach to this park, and I hope it turns out well. Here are some screen shots of what I have done so far... The main entrance plaza The oddly designed bridge across the river Here you can see "Sinistre," a floorless Arrow suspended coaster that weaves through the dense forest on the river bank An overview of what I have done in just about four "RCT2" years.

The "Disney-Magic" that TPR built!
zburns999 replied to Mr.Six's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
^Seems fair. He's been trying to get a shot the whole time. -
We got a foot here today in Milford PA. No school, so I got up, ran a workout fast, and then quickly shovled the deck and path to my neighbors house, and cleaned the house so I would have plenty of time to sit around and play RCT2. No snow day would be complete without it .

Awesome!!! -
Wow! I saw this yesterday. It was Cedar Point, and I have to say that this is very impressive. I have one question though. Is this a work in progress? Because many places don't have the "birdseye view" option.
