Ill see what I can do, My digital camera is really, really bad. But I might go over there since its not too far away.

When I was in the car going out of town today I spotted what appeared to be a ride in several bits at a place called the "Emarald Bank Heratiage farm", a tourist complex in my town. The site where the ride parts were was surrounded by a temporary fence, and I could see many dome type things that were painted in stripes of white with another color. I could also see a large yellow piece of machinery, which could be the rides central axis thingy. Could this ride be the Great balloon race from wonderland? Does anyone know who bought the Balloon race from WL? If anyone can provide info it would be great. Also, the site where the ride is now has a few waterslide sections there too. These were from a waterslide that was previously at the local aquatic centre, and about 5 years ago the slide was dismantled was moved to the heratiage farm site near the entrance, but have since been moved to the other side of the complex this new ride.

I thought is was BOOLEAN.
-
Since whn was a helicopter involved.
-
What about some tiger snakes in enclosure? Maybe they could stick in a runway, and offer tiger moth joy flights.
-
The rides opening? or maybe they were plaques from the manufacturer with things like installation date, Serial Number, ect.
-
My thoughts exactly. If a ride has good seats and restrains it can really enhance the ride. but if they are bad they can ruin it. Take bountys at WL, its over tight restraints and unmoulded seats ruined the ride a bit. And anyway, when you are on the ride you cant see the motor properly anyway.

I prefer the Intamin for the seats and restraints it has

Well, to tell you the truth, all that had been done was a pre made boomerang coaster, a flat ride and a simple water ride plus a few paths and trees, prehaps less than an hours work. It was a good idea you had going, you just didn't do much.
-
Whoa neb, i must say that that your part looks very nice, prehaps what you could have done is just made it medieval themed since you already have the begginings of that there. All you would need to do is rename and recolour a few of the rides, and you could easily have the best area in the park, dont get me wrong, its very good how it is, but giving it one theme could make it even more awesome. For example the merry go round could be called Sir Steeds, and the freefall ride could be called something like "Merlins secret towers", maybe the hyper coaster could be called "The Great Battle".
-
Come on, it has to have a centralised theme. And also, how could have you began if paul hasnt posted up his finished section for someone to continue with.
-
Its Ok, i was doing a mine area, but set in a jungle. I suppose they are different enough. But no biggie anyway.
-
Yeah, we already have two jungle areas and a beach area, what we want is contrast, not copying. There is loads of potential in the egyptian area.
-
So, how long till you are done Paul?
-
And anyway, if you use this site, you should try to give something back.
-
Well they both go up, then come back down.

The construction of superman thrill ride

Why would they have surcharge to cover it? It would just come out of the parks advertising budget since thats what it is, advertising a new ride. As for the frequency, well CPs cams take a shot every 15 minutes and that would work fine for this. I mean, its not like they could get a whole track piece in every minute. -
Maybe they could just put the good ones in the gallery, crediting the photographer in the caption, but in the forums you would post the photos showing the more intricate stuff with less broad appeal, like bits of equipment being laid out ready to put up for example.
-
At the end all that sort stuff will be done.

Whats going on Huss, you've dropped the ball! LPS is a park, correct? it has huss rides, they may not be park models, but the fact is that they are based in a park.
-
Im using no expansions, and as I have already said, all you need to do is say you are going next, then start. Paul, do us proud and make us a nice transylvania .
-
So, what theme were you aiming for, it looks allright . EDIT: Now i see, it has a little carnival area on the bottom end, then a Jungle area at the top. Ill say about 7/10. The coasters are very good, and nice and twisty, and their layouts are realistic. I also like how you have done the gardens around the carnival part, its so tidy and laid out. My only issues are that some of the rides/shops arent named propery, or have just be slapped down and left with their default colour scemes, make sure you take the time to colour them and name them. But otherwise, not bad. And just a side note, not everyone has to do the same theme, it could be anything from an egyptian city to a futuristic moon base. They dont all need to be jungle themed.
-
As long as you want, but it shouldn't take more that a few days anyway, its not like you have to do a whole park. Upload it as a saved game.
-
Just Say that you are going to do it, and then start building. While the first person is building, just post that you wish to go next, and then you will go next once the first person is done. First come first served. So in short, first come first served. If you want to go first Joz, just go right ahead. Another point to note: there are 7 islands including the entrance area, so there are 6 more spots left to fill. I didnt want to do too many as it would take too long to fill the park/ find people willing to do it. Oh, and no expansions since most people dont have them.
-
I have decided to go with Joz's idea and do a sort of "pass it around" team park. I have made a Sceneario as the template, and built my section of the park, a South American tin mine themed area. The park is divided up into islands separated by rivers. Each person takes an island and uses all of it to develop an area of a paticular theme (different to existing themes in the park). Then you uplaod the game save, and the next person takes the game save and builds their section onto it, this process continues till all the parks islands are used. When building your island, build a bridge halfway across to islands next to yours, and if someone before you has already made a bridge, build the other half so it connects to yours. This will make the park interconnected properly. When the park is finished, someone will build a monorail around the park connecting all the islands. A couple of things to keep in mind: -dont just plonk rides over the rivers willy nilly, try to keep them on the your island as it will look tacky if they are just on the water. I dont mind if its a ride that needs to be built on water (eg jet skis, submarines, canoes ect), nor do i mind if you just hang a corner of a tracked ride over the water or two. -Dont edit other peoples sections. -Only use items included in the scenario, no custom items. -One Island per person. Have fun everyone and try your best, it will be great to see the end product. Any questions, just ask. Here is the scenario everyone will need:
