TyRush Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 (edited) Hi guys! So instead of flocking the Hersheypark discussion thread I've decided to create one here for people to view. I started this project a month after NL2 was released and at first it was just a Skyrush recreation. After a bit of a stall in progress I recently finished Skyrush to exact proportions and it is 100% done from entrance to layout. Unfortunately my laptop cannot handle a full recreation with every detail, so I have been able to create other coasters such as Great Bear, SDL, Comet, Storm Runner, Sidewinder, and Fahrenheit. Not all coasters are 100% complete because I have decided to make the park look best for screenshots since my system cannot handle everything. I hope you enjoy the photos I have taken and I will likely take more and possibly add more detail eventually if my system permits.

blk_mamba Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 WOW this is pretty amazing. I didn't know that NL2 let you build rides! The coaster you are well put together. I hope you continue to display this project here and post more picture and maybe even some POV's
Coaster Hero Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 This is incredible, It's so all insanely detailed... a few environment settings modifications and you'd be competing with real life how good those photos look. Fantastic job!
TyRush Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 All 4 IntaminsFTFY Very nicely done! Darn forgot Kissing Tower
TB305 Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 This is SO cool, and incredibly well done in the attention to detail and overall layout accuracy! The hill and turn curvature of Skyrush looks *slightly* asymmetrical/off, but that's just nitpicking. Seriously, well done! Any chance we could get a download? I'd love to be able to virtually go to Hershey again since I won't be able to go back for a long time!
coasterkid124 Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Wow, I am stunned how great this turned out. It really looks like the real thing. Great job!
TyRush Posted September 19, 2015 Author Posted September 19, 2015 Thank you everyone! And to reply to the nitpick, I also agree the drop curvature is slightly off on Skyrush. The pull out should be drawn out a tad more but it would've required a lot more work with the supporting. I redid it twice so a third time would've been the death of me. As I said it is not necessaryily a complete replica as other than Skyrush the other coasters are there for show. If anyone would want to "finish" or play around with the park I will try to fix up the park package and make it available! My computer is good but it takes a lot to recreate a whole park for a laptop
TyRush Posted September 19, 2015 Author Posted September 19, 2015 ^I am not skilled enough to create a custom train yet, and I haven't found any models available. If anyone has one I would love to try and use it if you would be ever so kind
TB305 Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 I'm not sure how to get custom trains, so no help from me Sooooo, that package download?
TyRush Posted September 19, 2015 Author Posted September 19, 2015 Yes I would be in awe if someone has a Skyrush train model they're willing to lend, I'm working on finishing some things up before I release the park package but it'll be sooner rather than later!

Coaster Hero Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 I know TheCodeMaster made a model of Skyrush's trains in Sketchup for RCT3. You could perhaps try asking him for the .3ds file to use for Skyrush
TyRush Posted October 23, 2015 Author Posted October 23, 2015 I have been working on another project but will very soon return to this one! I am still looking for a Skyrush model so if anyone has any clues let me know. I have tried asking Code Master from Twitter however I do not think he uses it anymore. If anyone could ask that'd be great
TyRush Posted October 25, 2015 Author Posted October 25, 2015 Back to work here and did some environmental changes and track/support work for Storm Runner and Great Bear. Added in the old Hershey factory towers to add more realism too... Still a WIP!
Intimidated305 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Went to Hersheypark yesterday and had a blast. Let me just say, this is an absolutely spectacular recreation of Hersheypark. I love it!
Suspence1127 Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Looks amazing! Will we be getting a download in the near future?
TyRush Posted October 27, 2015 Author Posted October 27, 2015 Not sure about a download link quite yet but I do have something special coming tomorrow, hopefully! Stay tuned!
TyRush Posted October 28, 2015 Author Posted October 28, 2015 Promised you a treat today and here it is! Skyrush POV..Make sure to watch in HD! Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vX7s-B_xJF4
DoinItForTheFame Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Amazing. I watched it in HD, and there were seriously times I forgot this was a NL2 coaster. I thought I was watching a real POV. Great job!!
TB305 Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Although there were definitely some pumps and non-smooth transitions, the recreation as a whole was exceptionally well done, and your attention to detail is amazing! Great Job!
