Doerzb91 Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 Ahhhh! The Jack Rabbit... thats exciting! Not too many people do Kennywood recreations
Coaster Cow Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 ^^Looks great RRP. The only thing I'm a little iffy on is the color. Either I love it or it's meh, I can't tell. I'll have to wait for more of the archy (which looks awesome btw, very IOA to me). Looking forward to more!
PSiRockin Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 SoCal - I'm enticed. Not huge on those square roofs, they're distracting, try just a flat roof. Â CCI- Not much there, but the train really matches the track. Add another type of bush. The building is a nice touch. Â BigDipper 80- Looks great, never rode the real deal, but that double dip sure seems fun. Â rrp- Wow, certainly see the IoA inspiration in those buildings. The retaining wall near the water is...odd? The rest is superb, great interactivity, and nice use of the red land texture as path.

89James89 Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 Looks nice RRP. That's an incredibly long brakerun though. May need to be incredibly long but to me looks a little wierd. Also why are there trees on the path?  Other than that really nice.  Cheers  89James89
A.J. Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 The long brake run probably handles two block sections.
tdub96 Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 Sick RRP, youre one of the best... Â Â And a jackrabbit rec! Awesome! Some hometown Kennywood love!
BigDipper 80 Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Some new custom supports added to the lift hill.
the ghost Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 ^^^ AWESOME! BEAUTIFUL! Looks a LOT like Disneyland! AWESOME!
Popcorn54 Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 My other park Paradise Gardens has to much lag so I have started work on a new park I would like to see what people think of the Layouts. This park I plan on calling it Adventure Island I have still to finish Custom Supporting them, the terrain and station building and some more details still to be added A custom Schwarzkopf that doesn't invert and sort of Hugs the terrain, It might be called Adventure Express Here is the ride from the first drop After the Break Run there the ride dives down around the entrace area then takes a tunnel through the mountain and into the breaks The other coaster I have started work on is A custom Arrow Looper called Shark Bait. Â I would quite like feedback on the coasters Layouts, Please ignore the rest of the park and the bad supports on the coasters as I have still to work on them. Â Also does anyone know how many trains a ride like this would run, I have placed 3 however am not sure if that's to many.
QueerRudie Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Popcorn: Watch your punctuation, please. Â As for the Arrow looper, I think I just snapped my neck with the acceleration into the double screw- OUCH! I'd re-think that quite a bit there, as pretty as it is, you'd have lawsuits up the wazoo from the broken necks,spines, skulls, etc. from the entry from Inversion #3 into your double screw.
Popcorn54 Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Sorry about the Bad Grammar. Â Now, I have added a Mid Course Break Run where the Corkscrews were however I'm not sure if it's any better. Also any one know how many trains a coaster like this may run? Â Thanks for the help and sorry for asking so many questions! Â This is where the corkscrews used to be which is now a MCBR The Corkscrews now (Supports still to be added) Â Also any help on if the other coasters layouts ok would be nice.
QueerRudie Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Much better- The velocity you'd have entered the screws at the end with would have been fatal... Â If anything, I'd refine the return from the screws; Arrows of that era tended to do something more 'interesting' such as a rising helix into the brakes, or a high-speed banked turn. I'd reccommend some visuals of the Canyon Blaster (AdventureDome), Dragon Fyre (Canada's Wonderland) or even the Vortex at Kings Island for inspiration- all of them are good basis coasters from Arrow's point of View.
Popcorn54 Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I'm Going to try something like that to make it more interesting. Â Out of interest, do you know how many trains a ride like this would run?
djbrcace1234 Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 ^ 2-3, depending on the block system, but I must admit, that turn after the 2 loops is not the best transitions. try maybe a banked 180 that isn't flat.
tdub96 Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 ^looks like Jubilee Odyssey on steroids. Â Â Â Â Â Â I like.
QueerRudie Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 That is ONE outstanding entrance, Rob- the colors are perfect for the area around it. I'm looking forward to seeing it landscaped and related, as I think it's going to be stunning when done!
Califolf Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 Evidently, I need to expand my sources of inspiration =P - Â Â
Popcorn54 Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 Working a bit more on my Corkscrew Coaster and Added a Log Flume around it and have nearly finished supports. Â Does the Log Flumes layout look ok?
AJClarke0912 Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Rob, I don't typically comment on RCT2 stuff (although I do play), but I have to say that is literally awesome. The colors are great in my opinion.
