Shirlington Woods [RCT3]

[intimidator305rocks]

Hi. This is my first park posted on TPR. I know the park is completely flat but the last time I tried landscaping, I screwed up the whole park. Keep in mind that I'm sort of new to Rct3 but your feedback and criticism will help.

This park is in Wisconsin and it is not opened to the public yet. It is a Cedar Fair park. So far, the only rides we have are Maverick, A B&M Hyper Coaster; Golden Nugget, a Mine train; Scooby Doo's Wild Ride, a junior wooden coaster; an Enterprise, a Disko, a carousel, and an observation tower. I am working on building more rides

An overview of the park at night.

These are the Ticket booths, where you can buy your tickets for 39.99 each and a season pass for 50 dollars.

The turnstyles. After heading through security, you enter the park and start your wonderful day.

A few restaurants, Planeta Pizza and Sidewalk Cafe greet you if you're hungry

Here you can see our Lovely observation tower and park name. (I know, I still need to add some trees)

I've started our Kiddy area. I still need to add a few rides because we only have three. We have Scooby Doo's Wild Ride, a wooden coaster for the little thrill seekers in training. And then there's Disko which is a ride for the whole family to enjoy. The grand carousel might not be the most thrilling ride ever but its very enjoyable

Scooby Doo's Wild Ride's lift hill. Hey it may not be as tall as Maverick's but it's still very fun. They even let you ride for a 2nd circuit.

This is the park's enterprise, called Bait and Tackle. It is a themed enterprise as you can see all of the wood around it.

Look at that terrifying amount of steel, aka Maverick.

These are Maverick's fluffy fluffy bunnies filled with medicine and goo. These can come in handy when you have a backpack and you don't want to lose it on the ride.

Your little ones can play here while you ride Maverick. They'll have a blast on the slides while playing with the guy in the Tiger costume as you can see in the corner.

Maverick's Station.

Maverick's pre-lift interacts with the exit bridge.

AIRTIME HILLS! (note that I still need to work on this)

TWISTY!

Golden Nugget's, the park's mine train, station and que line.

Golden Nugget's first and second lift hills are adjacent.

Station and layout. Okay that's all I have to show today. Tune in for the next post!

Only a few complaints: Maverick doesn't look like a name that would fit that layout, maybe a more intimidating name? Also, if you're going for a Cedar Fair park, you have a perfect amount of concrete. But, for maximum realism, add more trash cans !

Decent start. May I say that when you use thoe support killers from Steelworx, hold the shift key and put them underground. They don't show up and it looks much nicer.

[mcjaco]

Good start. Glad to see you're already using the support CS. It's the best way to make a park look "right" than the default RCT3 supports.

 

I almost always terraform before I start building anything major. RCT3 is much to unforgiving to your perfectly laid pieces to go back and start raising and lowering land. In a lot of cases, I'll build one section, but know how I want the land forms to look for the next section, that way I can work on completing one section, then terraform the next section.

 

Basically, the more you dig in and try stuff out the better you'll get. And always save at the last point where you feel the park is where you like the most before making any significant changes!

I know. I was trying to go for an old western theme but I couldn't really think of a name.

Next update:

I haven't done very much because I've been busy. But I've worked on it a little bit. I added way more trash cans, since it is a cedar fair park.

I made a Coasters restaurant.

The inside

Some land has been cleared. What do you think would best fit the spot? A bobsled coasters, a roaring rapids type ride, or a dark ride. I'm personally thinking a dark ride but I'm not the best at rct3. please vote. That's all for today.

[real_cameron]

Dark Ride! I think that space is too small for a roaring rapids ride. Could be wrong, but I think at dark ride is the best choice. Keep up the good work on your park.

thanks!

Ok, the entrance of your park is nice, but the rest of your park is porly planned, has nothing that "catches ones eye", and just doesn't have much scenery over all. I think with a little planning and stuff it can turn out looking very nice!

^ I'm not very good at rct3 as I'm kind of new. I don't really plan out my parks. They're kind of just things I do when I'm bored. I'm only 11 and I have a life so rct3 is not something I think about all of the time. Plus, I don't really know how to make my parks have scenery.

I used to be absolutley horrible at RCT3, and I have had it for about a year now and I am very good! It just takes practice! Also, I don't plan mine out that often. I usually just go through the list of rides until I see somthing that fits! The only time I think about RCT3 is when i'm playing it, or when i'm at an amusement park! And if you don't know how to make parks have scener, look at other peoples parks....There is also youtube If you ever need help with RCT3 just message me and I will see what I can do!
