SixFlagsAstroworld

I'm having a little bit of a roadblock at the moment. I'm outlining Batman the Escape on my pixel map, and I cannot find the entrance for the queue. I know you go through the mountain and over a bridge to reach Batman the Escape. Here's an aerial view of the area in front of the bridge and batcave. I located the queue, but I cannot locate where it starts. If you been to Astroworld, or know anyone who has been to Astroworld, can you please help point out where the queue for Batman the Escape starts, and confirm that the ramp under the bridge is the exit? Thank you in advance. By the way, anyone happen to know where in Astroworld this building is located?

Interesting facts I learned about Astroworld part 1: XLR-8 had a weird ass queue Looking at the aerial view of XLR-8, I found that it has just a straightforward queue. There's no switchbacks or anything. If you don't believe me and thought I hid the real queue under the pixel map I'm working on, here's another photo of the queue. Whats also weird is the exit path. From this screenshot of the backwards POV of XLR-8, The transfer track goes over the exit path. The gates are clearly meant to let the trains pass through into the transfer track. I heard a rumor that XLR-8 was originally supposed to be part of the Six Flags ride rotation program, which would actually make sense as to why they would make these weird design choices. It was meant to be temporary until it was relocated. It would also explain the tent like station the coaster had too.

I'm officially reviving this project! Let me say that I learned a LOT about building realistic coaster in minecraft since the last time I posted in this thread. This is horrible looking. I hate it I built on a theme park server since 2016 and I have since developed a technique for recreating coasters and parks in minecraft. You may have seen my Hard Rock Park recreation project. Here's how I recreated Hard Rock Park accurately in minecraft: I came up with the idea to pull the park off of google earth, put it into Microsoft paint, and outline the park, creating a pixel map. I have it to where 1 pixel = 1 block. Please excuse the clusterf*ck of colors After I finish a section of the pixel map, I go ahead and copy it into minecraft: Hard Rock Park pixel map in minecraft And after a lot of reference photos, interviews, and patience later: Hard Rock Park in all of its blocky glory So what does my Hard Rock Park minecraft recreation have to do with Six Flags Astroworld? In case it wasn't obvious, I'm recreating it the exact same way that I recreated Hard Rock Park. My Astroworld pixel map so far. As an added bonus, when I recreated Hard Rock Park, I learned a lot of facts about the park that I didn't even notice until I was building it. That means I will learn a lot of interesting details about Astroworld, which I will share will you all in a new post. I can't do this alone though, I will need a little help with this project. I'm asking that if you or anyone you know have been to Astroworld, please PM me, as I do have some questions that only someone who actually visited the park will be able to answer. I look forward to all of your support, and updating this thread in the future!

I was kind of skeptical at first, since the current splash mountain is pretty iconic, but after a few minutes, I think this retheme will work out perfectly. I can't wait to see it when its done. Has there not been a confirmed date for the closure of Splash Mountain yet?

Six Flags is more likely to drop Frontier City and Darien Lake than StL.

Its really sad to see a park go like this

Thats amazing!

Seeing that the original plan didn't have a transfer track, I think Six Flags submitted it and was like "crap we forgot the transfer track!" and quickly added one in

If this sale goes through, I need to go to this park asap as it is on my bucket list.

^Thanks for the video! Its really cool seeing one of my favorite coaster's on media day On the topic of Ninja, once I actually grew tall enough for my head to be above the restraints a few years ago, I actually don't mind ninja. I've been on rougher coasters than Ninja.

1994 As the park's 4th coaster, Forest Hills unleashed the all new Virginia Beast wooden coaster for 1994! This coaster was built by Custom Coasters International, or CCI for short. One unique feature this coaster has is a double up hill immediately followed by a double down hill. Enthusiasts praised that element for delivering great airtime. Virginia Beast was an instant hit and drew in thousands of guests

1991-1993 After a very successful 1990 season with the addition of Python, Forest Hills decided to keep on expanding their park with new additions. 1991 saw the addition of a HUSS Condor ride called "Condor" It was placed conveniently near the Forest Flyer skyway station Another flat ride was added for the 1992 season. A HUSS top spin called "Firebomb" For 1993, Forest Hills added a diner across from Firebomb that serves classic American meals. By the end of the 1993 season, teasers started to pop up for the 1994 addition with the line "Unleashing in 1994". What could it be? Find out in the next update!

They're not going to change it unless they get severe backlash which isn't going to happen.

1990 Forest Hills once again contacted Arrow Dynamics to build them their next huge coaster: Python, the park's first coaster with inversions. Python is a clone of ShockWave at Six Flags Great America and Great American Scream Machine at Six Flags Great Adventure. Credit to Olsor54 The queue is themed to an ancient tropical temple Another addition to the park is the all new Skyway Skyway provides an easy and scenic way to get to both huge arrow coasters. Forest Flyer's Ghostbusters themeing was also removed.

I wonder how long it’ll stay open before some incident happens on it.

1987 - 1989 With the success of the park during opening year, plans immediately went forward for future expansions. With an uneventful 2nd season of 1987, aside from minor park improvements, Forest Hills added their first new ride in 1988: Zulu, a Schwarzkopf Enterprise ride. For the 1989 season, nothing new was added, but Forest Flyer was temporarily rethemed to Ghostbusters: Ecto Force to promote the summer film, Ghostbusters 2. Forest Flyer's cars were repainted to resemble the iconic Ecto-1 Halfway through the ride, you encounter a giant inflatable Stay Puft that you narrowly avoid Everyday at noon, the Ghostbusters would come out in front of the ride and put on a show By the end of the 1989 season, A massive amount of land was cleared and track showed up on the site. What could it be? Find out next time!

1986 Welcome to Charleston, West Virginia's newest theme park, Forest Hills! It is a small theme park featuring 2 roller coasters, a log ride, and multiple flat rides! The park's western styled main street. The central icon of the main street area is this classic carousel built in 1903 and relocated to this park from a now defunct amusement park. Let's check out the park now The park's family coaster, Ripsaw Lumberjack Creek is a popular ride on hot days. And the park's biggest and signature roller coaster: Forest Flyer. An Arrow suspended swinging coaster that uses it giant hill to its advantage. Forest Flyer's layout. Forest Hills was a immediate success upon opening. The park gained a lot of attention among the public because of Forest Flyer. It wouldn't be long before the small park would start expanding...

Thanks! I am not posting this on youtube, but the park is up on the workshop for you to visit

I actually really like this tagline the park made. What do you guys think of it?

Exciting to hear Xcalibur will be up and running again! Anything noteworthy about Catwoman’s Whip happen yet?

...At least we can still refer to it as “Mindbender” without causing confusion

Its exciting to get a new park in the USA that isn't Disney or Universal! I can't wait to see how this turns out

Thats great to hear! I hope they finally add shade to some much needed areas like Studio Backlot

I feel like the construction team chugged 100 cans of energy drinks before working on this, its going up really fast!
