park closed for good.

[the ghost]

Hey guys my computer is still totally retarded and I cant post screenshots so will the first person to download please include pictures of the rides so far. This is a cool park and I have never tried a realistic scenario so far but I really like it thus far.

 

THE COASTERS(not named in game but these are their planned names)

Camden Cannonball- CCI terrain woodie

Pitfall- B&M floorless with a unique layout

Typhoon Canyon- Hopkins log flume

Logleep- Zamperla frog hopper

Helter Skelter- traveling fair

Camden Derby- arrow antique car style ride

 

there is some basic cs included

I got your pictures, egh. I would try to keep your park less spaced out. I'll present the pictures, but normally if you space out your park, it gets canceled.

Thank you so much mathew. BTW I just noticed the dead flowers, so I am gonna fix that. I started out with a different mindset with this park, but after seeing so many awesome parks (particular canobie's magic mountain) I was inspired to do a realistic park. Also in my opinion that woodie is my best layout ever. What do you actually think of the park, especially from a realistic standpoint.

dont worry, I am planning on making opening day next update and am adding 2 more major attractions to my park. You'll see.

 

Picture problem fixed and new teasers(please note that theming is not shown in the teasers, but will be included in the actual release)

The cobra is coming

[DBru]

Cobra isn't realistic; it doesn't use block brakes.

 

The park is looking decent, and I want you to continue this one. This isn't intended to be rude at all, but please try to keep going, instead of starting a new one every other week.

 

Good luck!

[thrillrideseeker]

The park is looking really good! But as mentioned before, when you build a coaster rather than having a really long station with 15 trains in it, make block's in your ride so you can run more than one train, but in a more safe way!! Its looking great and I cant wait to see more!! Keep up the good work!!

^I have to keep the block brake thing in mind when I fix the coaster I just created in RCT3. I'm still playing around with the coaster types so I still have a while. I have a fairly long station as well, but I did put some block brakes in for a launch and at the end of the ride so it may not need to be as long.

 

Ghost: I have to agree with spacing issues in the rides. Those are going to be some long paths between each of the rides! Tired and thirsty peeps everywhere!

[the ghost]

Ill continue, but if you notice the pictures of the park entrance my guests are stuck, and I dont know how to fix this, but I will try.

[terrancew_hod]

^Is what you have the official entrance or a custom object? And if so, why isn't there paths actually going into the park from the entrance so the peeps can get in?

don't space the rides out so much. It seems tha the park is all rides and not enough "park" if you know what I mean

The path is custom, it is double wide path and the reason there is no path into the park is that I don't want peeps to enter and the only way to actually close a park is with a trainer

That will be resolved by the next update.

[the ghost]

If someone could change download my par and change the entrance point with 8 cars it would be very appreciated.

[Thelegendarymatthew]

Well, its not easy as it seems. You gotta know were the arrow is.

Plus that feature is not the best feature, best bet is to just go to the scernio editor and load up the save game and switch it. Its not that hard, I do it for Sunrise all the time.

[the ghost]

Good idea

[DBru]

^Won't that remove all of his current rides, though?

[the ghost]

I am going to try something, but may fail miserably, there must be a way to fix the issue.

[the ghost]

Camden park has been shut down. However, its sister park Camden East has begun construction and besides a few differences there are striking similarities.

 

Update 2morrow.

[DBru]

Ghost, please continue working on this park, and DO NOT start another one; at least, not yet. Keep building when the going gets rough, and it will just make you better! (Plus, you've already had like 4 parks since October... )

[kalvin]

Are you ever going to complete a park? It seems like you start a park, then you have a anouncement saying its closing, then you start a new one next week.

[terrancew_hod]

After reading the last two posts, I had to go back and look at your old parks as well as some other threads. I can see why there is a sticky about the rules about creating quality threads of parks that have progress. I see from all the uncompleted threads that this was a big problem for the mods. I'm thinking that because of your multiple threads of false starts and stops, you may be falling under this rule if you keep starting new park threads.

 

If you are going to start over with this "East" park, I would keep it in the same thread instead of starting a new one.

 

Also (and I've seen this with other people) I would suggest to only do an update when you have decent progress on your park. Also in your case I would make sure that you have the appropriate patches to the park applied and peeps can enter. Open your park and see if it works before you post.

 

If you aren't sure, I would check out parks by others and compare what you have with others. To be honest, I think what you have in your threads are way too sparse to be displayed in a thread. There are no paths connecting rides, no shops, or anything that could considered as a open park. I'm not trying to be mean, but I'm just noting what I see so far. In my opinion, waiting until you a good start on a park to create a thread is far better than creating a number of uncompleted parks and possible drawing negative attention from a mod.

Not to be a killjoy or a nerd, but Red on Yellow will kill a fellow is refering to a Coral Snake not a Cobra.

[Tchu]

Not to be an even bigger nerd, but Coral snakes and Cobras are of the same family.[/bignerdiness]

You're welcome.

 

I don't envy the clean up and moderation you have to do, especially when you have to constantly remind people of stuff stated in the stickies... they are there for a reason.

 

I think about that web video about posting for beginners where it said that most of the time it's better to post in an existing thread than create a new one. That's a very true statement, especially considering the number of members on this site and the cleanup mods have to do when people create a lot of low quality threads. In the three or more years I'm been a member of this site, I think I created no more than 4 or 5 threads... that's right: 4 or 5. That's because most of the time there wasn't a need to create a thread because someone already had or what I had to say most likely didn't require a new thread... or I just hijack someone's thread to make my point.

 

In the case of the Rollercoaster Tycoon parks threads, there's been quite a few , based on their initial park progress, that could have just posted a park logo or what they had in the Preview thread since, honestly it wasn't ready for prime time. And some, that just created a paragraph about their park without any graphics and said "More coming soon" (never to be heard from again) could have just kept it to themselves. That's making clutter in the forum that the mods have to clean up. Help 'em out and make it so that every post you click on you know is going to be worth the click.

 

I'm going to get off my soapbox now and go home so I can practice my landscaping skills in RCT3. I got some canyons and caves to make!

Camden Park East construction tour day 1

 

There has been a lot of work done with Camden Park East. It is pretty similar to the other Camden which recently closed, check out the pictures. The next update will probably be posted on Saturday or Sunday.

construction

construction

Here is the Camden Cotton Mouth, it will be repainted.

SCR149.BMP

The blue building is the information building and the building on the right is Tabasco's, it features fine Meixcan cuisine, and the fact that its spicy can be inferred by the name.

SCR147.BMP

Cool zero g roll type element

SCR148.BMP

Crestfallen- much better than pitfall, in my opinion

SCR151.BMP

Camden Cannonball- an exact replica of the original at Camden

Here is a preview of the America-Land of the Free section of the park
