themeparkman25 Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Those buildings are phenomenal! I love what you have you done with the midways, rides (even with your custom supports) and the shurbery. All in all, this looks awesome and I would love to see more. What are the 6 countries you are themeing after? Bologna is a pretty sweet name for a coaster too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmaxsba2408 Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I don't know how you were able to get the motorbikes to "train up" like that, but it is very cool that you did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob! Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Amazing work. I like yours buildings a lot! I'd love to have a download link! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PriestofSyrinx Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Sweet dude. That is definitely up to NE standards. I am especially liking that flying coaster. Great use of foliage too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liampie Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 @Themeparkman25: Thanks! Re-read the first post. The areas aren't countries. Four cities are in the screens, two remain secret. Why do you think Bologna is a nice name for a coaster? Do you have any idea what it means? @The others: Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liampie Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 Due to the object limit I cannot execute all the ideas I had in my mind as good as I wanted. I even had to scrap some ideas... I wanted to move some stuff to a second map, but after only one day I realised it was bullshit to start a second map when the first one is almost finished. A complete waste of time. Fuck the parking. The project is still 140x140 and will always be 140x140. Knossos - 95% Bologna - 90% York - 97% København - 80% Fifth area - 99% Sixth area - 65% ----------------------- Overall progress: 95% Probably the last screen of Knossos before the release.

Bob! Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Liampie, I just love yours RCT2 projects : they are wonderful and amazing at the same time. I'm very glad to see that you finally finished this project. I think you'll be able to get a great score at NE if you have decided to post it there! Anyway, a download link would be very appreciated! I'm looking forward your next project of course! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbrcace1234 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Congrats Liampie on your Spotlight Award! http://www.nedesigns.com/index.php?showtopic=22822&park_id=1490 I loved the park; orginal, and a great concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liampie Posted August 20, 2010 Author Share Posted August 20, 2010 Thanks! You're quicker than me! So yeah, I won spotlight. What more can I say? I'm glad that this park is finally out. http://www.nedesigns.com/index.php?showtopic=22822 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob! Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Congrats Liampie! I'm loving your park, it's very beautiful. By the way, thanks for the "read me" text. I totally agree with you : if you want to see the real Paris, you have to walk on the old streets (near Montmartre) ... Not being at the top of the Eiffel Tower for example. Yours buildings are amazing and so realistics. Well, ... I'm in love with this project. I'm now looking forward your next project now, ... And I hope I won't be upset! Edit : Oh, by the way, if you would like to recreate another park like this one, I think you could choose some small town. I don't mean that the fact that you made your work all around old big cities isn't amazing, but I mean you could recreate a small town with such amazing details if you wanted to. Once again, good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liampie Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 Sorry I am late to the replies but thank you all! I've got bonus material... Stuff that didn't make it into the final version. Knossos V1 -The original Ikaros design has been re-released! Click here to see it Antwerpen V1 - Before I decided to add the sixth area (Lübeck), Antwerpen was supposed to be very different to what it is now. Besides groundcolouring there wasn't much there yet. De Pralinefabriek, now an indoor rapid, used to be a Mack Spinning Coaster. This was made during 'The Great Inspiration Drought', a two-month period of not touching the game because every attempt at making something nice (in any park) failed. The ideas were already there, but the exection lacked. The final transport belt is much better... Random Antwerpen facades before I did any research. Just trying stuff. Antwerpen V2 - This is the final version, although the facades kept changing all the time. First tests. More inspiration drought. The restaurant moved to the other side of the area to make room for the RC boats. One of many attempts at making a nice looking domed building. The windows/roofs etc were pretty random, I focused on the dome. Conclusion: Making a detailed dome at this scale is fucking hard. Lasithi-area - This Knossos-subtheme was much harder to do than it looks. It used to be void, not close to any city or ride. I didn't know what to do with it... Most attempts failed. In three stages it became an acceptable area, in fact I actually really like it now. Conclusion: If things don't work out, just move on and try again every now and then. This small/simple area took me months to get right... Tivoli V1 - Tivoli was the last area I completed, although I started it quite early. This is from the same period as Antwerpen V1. This was my first attempt at the Rutschebanen... Tivoli V2 - This is the second version. The city-area of København was already in place this time. I think this layout is actually quite nice. I deleted it because I had no idea how to theme it well. Actually I had an idea, but I didn't have the patience... In the real Tivoli Gardens, there is a narrow street full of games and small shops behind Rutschebanen. I loved the street and I wanted to include it in my park. Due to another layout I had to sacrifice this idea... Some of the games stayed though, in another setting. Same layout, another theming attempt. I didn't continue this because it would take too many object slots. Anything else - From Lübeck, København and York. Never intended to be final. Never intended to be final. (the building) Got deleted pretty recently for object slots. Fail. This was intended to be final, but I knew I could do better. Enjoy the crap, and steal anything if you like.

dmaxsba2408 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Your attention to every detail is astounding, and your willingness to go back and re-work a "FINISHED" area is something that most in the RCT community fail miserably at. Most people here and NE seem to have this attitude that once something is done it is DONE!, and you have provided here a group of pictures that I hope will inspire everyone with the "it's done" mindset that things in RCT can always be better and should never really be done. Once again congrats on your Spotlight at NE and am looking forward to seeing Knossos V1 when I get home tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
