The "Preview" Thread
Califolf replied to DBru's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Let me repeat: It's a joke pic. Joke, joke, joke, joke, joke. No such coaster exists. And I'm keeping that signage. Now then... pretty, no? -

What I think some people would love to do with my parks (note - this is a joke pic): Though, in a way, this is a 'preview' in the sense that a long-awaited Echenima update is on the way rather shortly! -

Hatter, that looks amazing! Seriously, it does. ^.^ Just practicing with RCT3 for the first time in a while, might make a mixmaster show with it. Anyone who has seen my parks in RCT2 might immediately recognize the park and a specific area in it, sans the giant sign - -

I noticed that Veja Mundo is absent from the list, even though I submitted it properly. -

What I'd love to see is inter-park competition, like trying to counter what someone else's park is doing. In a sense, increased interaction instead of mere isolation for a top record, which I feel is what lead to the folly of this earlier. Now, re-adding the parks? Alrighty.

Played around with photoshop, and shamelessly created a ripoff of a certain nighttime light parade: Auroratacular test run - The first few floats pass the K9 Animation Facility. -

Finally worked on the Centerpiece/Focal point of Veja Mundo park in the Benetti Resort (look in sig for link), inspired by the Catalina Casino in Catalina island, CA: Of course, I shall be doing some additional landscaping. Also, finally worked on the layout of the park (or, at least, the major waterway). 'tis gonna be a fairly small park: -

Something in-progress for the Studios that I've been aiming to make for a while (in terms of location, the North Gard Yukon Adventure is located just to the right of this pic): An innovative ride system that's so underused (actually, the only attraction with this system in reality, quite frankly, features unattractive subject matter, such a shame)... Anyone who can guess the ride system along with its only Real-life implementation wins a prize. -
[RCT2] Folfenarios
Califolf replied to Califolf's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Just wondering, from what I've seen in chat (and, quite frankly, it bothers me that people would rather respond about my work in chat rather than in the respective threads), people have been checking these out and looking at them. However, I intended (or hoped) that those who downloaded the scenarios would play with them. And not only that, but to recite an excerpt for the original post: So, if you did download these scenarios, do post what you have done to them! Consider it an 'open-ended' contest, a showcase of what want can do to what already exists (or in the case of the beach, what one does). Thanks for taking the time to read this, and please post your actions to the scenarios, it'd be great to see what you've done! -

I'm sorry, I do not know this 'Caliof' person, but I hear he's pretty good. Not bad, has a bit of an 80s/90s feel to it. ^^ -

Just wondering, are there any quarter-tile imitation-terrain objects? I might be needing those for my next park. Gracias! -

Pretty darn amazing, Hatter, makes me wanna play RCT3 again. -
Long time, time to check up on things! We're gonna be switching things up for today. Normally Resort updates will show Echenima Park first and then the K9-Falliday Studios. However, as the latter has been on a burst of construction, we shall be beginning with the Studios: Yes, that is a functioning backlot, just to prove that this is more than just another movie park. As was hinted at by a then-recent visitor (see previous two updates), the much-anticipated North Gaurd Section has opened: Announced mid-summer of 2010 during MARFest, and having its construction long-halted until Winter, this sub-section, along with its attraction fills the (attendance and contractual) quota, with the hopes that it will draw more guests into the then-fledgling Studios. Based on a fictitious film based on an actual comic, the main attraction - Yukon Adventure, starts off as a dark ride moving past black-lit settings around tight-curves before climaxing thru an outdoor run: Jacob Crathan, head MARFinvisionist of the attraction, said that it was a "bit of a challenge trying to get timing of the scenes just right. We had experiment with controlling the speed and sled (nickname for the attraction's vehicles) length so that all everything is seen in full by the most number of people". Indeed, Yukon, has the longest vehicle length of any attraction designed for MARFleparks - 5 sled-shaped 'cars'. On opening day, just as expected, the attraction was a hit: But wait, where are the crowds? That line is empty! Alas, the short line is merely an illusion. Moving on to the other end to another (intended) opening, in Tinseltown, Mystique of Highland. Recreating the Historic but long-gone Hollywood Hotel, this attraction utilizes LIMs and dark ride elements to create a unique experience: However, after weeks of being soft-opened (it's not yet even marked on the maps), the attraction suffered from several technical problems, causing it to practically break down several times a day. Because of this, the attraction has been closed one day prior to its (now postponed) grand opening, for further inspection and repair. Speaking of repair, we have spare track in the Studios: We shall end of the Studios with a look at the Crossroads Hub: Who doesn't enjoy a hub pic? Moving on to Echenima Park, parade gates have been added to Harbor Cove, along with some path changes in anticipation for upcoming parkwide show: In terms of subtle changes, Futura Dome has reopened with a new 4D show as well as a new, less-cluttered front: And finally, Central Park flowers have been planted in time for a certain Holiday: And that should do it fo- *gets a call* Pardon me for a sec... Hello there! Hows it going? What?! What do you mean he- Alrighty, shall we announce this now or wait until next time? Certainly. What about severance pa- oh right, he quit. Alright, hasta tu muerte! *hangs up* Sorry about that, where was I? Oh right! Until next time, seeya!

Those tall trees are intentionally placed to block out the view - what you see in the majority of the pic is backstage/guest inaccesible. *votes for arrow* -

Complimentary staff-exclusive transportation. Just one of the many perks for working at MARF.
