Im fairly certain in years to come there will be a replacment for the attraction, it could showcase newer movie technologies like motion capture for example.

One thing I want to know about WL, why were the space probe freefall cars called "cabins"?
-
Last time i checked, Expedition Everest was a new ride.

Whats with the turn out of the Zero g roll, the whole thing should be straight and lead into the cobra roll. This is how you could do it: first bulid the zero g roll part all in a straight line, no curves, then do a couple of level straight sections out of the zero g roll, thendo the cobra roll the same as how you have done it, then out of the cobra roll do an upward section of track, then a right turn, then a left turn, then a helix up to the brakes.

What does TPA stand for?

Which is interesting because in Vekomas early days they outsourced to Arrow. Maybe ABL is who does Vekomas aussie projects.

Ok, now i get it, very ingenieous, i intitially thought the rail bended like how a monorail works. But on the B&M does it rotate clockwise, or anti clockwise? Edit: wait, now i fully get it , there is actually a track rail right in between the other two, directly above the red circle on the front of the train that is curved, so when it moves into place, other track segment (in the pic its in use) is in the middle of the other two rails.
-
Im curious too, but rather with the station on Air, i have been told its like the station on Vikings revenge, but that is just a gate that boats bump off, and there is no track. but air has two rails with wheels on 3 sides, so it would be more complex.

because maybe thats who they picked to build it.

They never had a single looper, its just creative licence, the thing that looks like a woodie is probably the log flume, and the Avalanche is now called angry beavers spooty spin.questions- did dreamworld ever have a wooden coaster? a single loop coaster? and what and where on earth was avalanche mountain? -
No Bus, they would use a sand filter, and to clean them you just backwash it, so any crap (figuratively and literally) winds up in the sewer.
-
Dunno, yellow pages maybe? do you have access to any trade magazines, which could hold some info. Personally, i was hoping that if it was being made in Australia that it would be done at the foundry in my town, Furphys, i could have got some pics for everyone. Where did you get the rumours from thunder001?

Geeze, such a violent reaction from such a little joke. You dont complain about Joz's news flashes in his sig.
-
Not really, they do that in europe, but many manufacturers fabricate the track in the countries that they will be built in, for example Bolliger and Mabillard do the track for their american rides in Ohio. I imagine that things like the seats and restraints are made in one place due to the complicated nature of them.
-
Boooooo, take that back. Why would you ahve to clean the filters anyway, I doubt a waterpark would use cartridge filters, they would use sandfilters, which you back wash. Yeah, Goboi, you can have that job, but new attractions is my department.Funny,the things you mentioned put together have the nutritional value of a Mcdonalds burger -
Some latest news just in, Cedar Point has admitted defeat because of Kingda Ka taking TTD record, and is now taking down the ride. Link
-
Yeah, they are the same, except the SF one is scaled up a little in size because the trains dont have to carry the musical equipment.
-
What about that pirate guy at WnW where they have the treasure hunt. Sorry i forgot you rappa, amybe you could just be the park DJ so all the people in the queues could listen to music.

At current, i dont do any Drawing related job, Im a maccas kid myself, but i do get A+'s in visual communication
Bus, great idea there for the waterfall, it would be very impressive walking into the park and seeing a big waterfall at the end of the wave pool.
At least i know Im on the right track, i mean, im impressing the hardest audience of all, enthusiasts. -
I did a 3D drawing of the park for those interested. And i was bored, so I thought of who would staff the park, Me - Head of Park Design/Planning Rich - CEO Joz - Head of Food/Beverage Bussy - Head of Attraction Maintenance Daniel - Head of Park Security Paul - Head of IT, www.wetnwildsunshinecoast.com.au web master Shaun - Head of Accounting/Finance/Payroll AlexB - Head of Entertainment Flea - Head of park themeing/lighting/special FX and in park music Rabid - Head of media/marketing Steve$ - Ejected Patron Pattieboy - Lifeguard

Slicks entrt does not have a top hat element in it. For those who are unsure, its something like this: http://www.rcdb.com/ig2498.htm?picture=4 or this http://www.rcdb.com/ig1574.htm?picture=5 or this http://www.rcdb.com/ig427.htm?picture=2 but for a short one, like this http://www.rcdb.com/ig2905.htm?picture=1

I didnt bother to put in all the future expansion areas basically because ti would be a waste having this big blank bit on the image. In terms of eateries, there is the octagonal one near the wave pool, there is also one at the back of the park near all the shelters. Also, in the middle of the wave pool deck area is a square building, this would be a 2 story building , at the top is the projector room for dive in movies, but on the ground floor would be a shop that only is open on movie nights that sells popcorn ect. An ice cream palour is located direcly down from crazy creek, next to the wave pool. the large rectangular building at the park entrance is also 2 stories high, the top level is admin, while the bottom level is change rooms, lockers, the entrance turnstiles and a shop selling things like sunscreen, souvouniers, towels ect. In terms of toilets, there would be one by Body board beach, the top level of that building would be a viewing deck for Body board beach. There would also be toilets with the food outlet in the top right of the park, and also in the main entrance area.
