Mirabilandia Discussion Thread
JordyC replied to momo1tx's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Not soon enough. . . I'm so over this VR gimmick. Sure, it was neat at first. . . But then everyone started putting it on everything, and ruining perfectly good coasters. . . The VR really doesn't make the coaster that much better. And it really kills operations. -

So was Fluch von Novgorod @ Hansa Par It has a very forceful launch as well. It launches to 100 kph (60 mph) in just 1.4 seconds. That's an accelaration from 2 G's. Fluch doesn't launch from a standstill, there's a small drop before the LSM kicks in. Fixed. Yeah I'm sorry, that's what I meant. And although it doesn't launch from a standstill, it still has a very forceful launch. It must be somewhere around 1.8-2 G's. -

Disneyland Paris (DLP) Discussion Thread

Behind the scenes look at the new Big Thunder Mountain Big Thunder Mountain at Disneyland Paris is as good as new. After a huge refurbishment of more than one year, the famous roller coaster will reopen this month. Take a look behind the scenes, and be one of the first to discover everything that has changed in "the wildest ride in the wilderness." Over the past twelve months, decorators and technicians worked very hard on almost every element of the 25-year-old attraction. "Almost all the parts are cleaned or replaced", said Walt Disney art director Beth Clapperton during a special behind the scenes tour. "Not only the impressive rock work, but also all individual decorations and figures - including bats and donkeys. That was much needed." Even the geysers across the lake, which had been out of action since the late nineties, have been fixed. You will barely recognize the last scene of the coaster. The cave with 'explosives' will soon make use of special effects and video projections. The manufacturer, the Dutch company Vekoma, was brought in to update the technology. "As a result, the system has become a lot more reliable, with fewer failures." The five trains - except the bases - are totally new as well. At this moment, the finishing touches are being made to the attraction. "This renovation will make Big Thunder Mountain the icon for Disneyland Paris that it deserves to be." The official reopening will take place on Saturday, December 17th. Source -

Favorite On-Ride and Background Music?

There hasn't been any official soundtrack released by IMAscore for Operation Enterprise. So I don't know how you got this, but it's definitely not made by IMAscore. EDIT: IMAscore said this in the comment section on Youtube: -

Shut up. Seriously. It's a simulation, not every detail needs to be there. I know what you are speaking about but it does not matter. This is an awesome coaster coming to a new park in a country with practically no good rides. Look at what matters. What the hell just happened? -
RMC Hansa Park or Holiday Park?
