Why you shouldn't build exciting coasters too far outside of the main park
Guess I learned it the hard way
Why is classic so greedy?
The toolkit LITERALLY COMES BY DEFAULT IN RCT2 I SHOULDNT BE PAYING FOR IT
I just converted a Government Superfund site to a Super Fun Park with Custom Rides Only.
Yes you read that right....I used custom rides only. Not even a little merry-go-round.
I was given this green-infested-water toxic waste dump, and I had to make it a fun amusement park! The pollution was really bad, so bad that their hats and t-shirts got contaminated with green radioactive waste. When it rains, even their umbrellas get soaked neon green! Too bad the air pollution was so bad all the balloons disintegrated at the warehouse. (translation: I forgot them!)
Normally, I use lots of flat rides and prebuilts. But not this time! I wanted to make every ride my very own creation. This is also my first time focusing on using special track like steep twists, and trying to get rides to look complex yet not messy. The woodies and steelies are synchronized for excitement rating, though not designed to stay in sync the whole ride. However I was able to make them interact with each other nicely.
This was a fun park to build. The goal of $200,000 park value was reasonable, and there was plenty of usable space. I liked the green goo, barren landscape, and dead trees all over the park. The spaceship crash was a nice touch, though I wish it was in the park boundaries.
Scroll the gallery to se all the rides and stats. I hope you enjoy it!
My Premier Rides Sky Rocket variant
Enjoyed this one a lot. The irl model doesn't quite translate very well into RCT so I added a bit of extra layout and am quite happy with the result. The support structures were a fun challenge and I love the S&S tower interaction I was able to incorporate.
I beat harmonic hills
1393 guests, 999 park rating, $30,000 to spend and a paid off loan.
The best advice I can give:
Stick to coaster and ride types that allow tight turns (wild mouse, wild mine, Cheshire cats).
Give literally zero fucks about aesthetics
Don't bother with decor.
Just crank that badboy out.
Two roller coasters from Evergreen gardens scenario
Two coasters I'm pretty happy with. Any input on improvements is appreciated. I know very little about real life roller coasters so I just build what i think looks cool.
X360- a Mack Extreme Spinning Coaster
Based off on an idea by u/Marsmat239
I enjoy making scenarios. Does anyone still play custom scenarios?
As a kid I would play around in the scenario editor. Over 2 decades later, I have played through all the in-game acenarios for both RCT1 and 2.
I have slowly built up a little "expansion pack" of scenarios that i made and tested myself. I have made 5 polished scenarios where I tried to mimic the vibe of RCT1's scenarios. Themed parks thst are about as difficult as the challenging scenarios with a little flavor. What fun scenarios have you all made?
I also gave theme an overarching theme:
> Banana Boardwalk is a smaller park along an American midatlantic boardwalk. Inspired by Funland and Castaway Cove in Ocean City, New Jersey. Guest count of 1500 by the end of year 3.
> Razzberry Ridge is a forested park in a holler of the Appalacian Mountains. Classic and Wooden rides are almost exclusively available. Somewhat inspired by Knoebels in Elyseburg, Pennsylvania. Repay your loan and achieve a park value of 250,000.
> Cocoa Cape is a cliffside resort park with accompanying botanical gardens and 5 star hotel. Build 10 rollercoasters and keep you park rating up.
> Blueberry Bay is a snowy wonderland in the great white north built near a historic lighthouse and abandoned lumber mill. Careful with the cold and rainy weather, though. Guest count of 1800 by the end of year 4.
> Pineapple Plantation is a now-vacant farm that you inherited. The former owners wish was to turn the plantation into a thriving thrill park. Pay off the farms debts and achieve a park value of 300,000.
Frightmare Hills
Happy October! Here's Frightmare Hills park. Took alot of time developing it. It doesn't have a ton of scenery. But the rides I'd think would make up for it. All the rollercoasters are villian, monster, demon, or anti hero based. My favorites of the rides are Sulphurous Crag, HELLRAISER, The Right Hand of Doom, Cerberus Unchained, Dementors Kiss, and Hells Pit. Think this park is the best one I've made yet. Close between it and Octagon park. There's a link for its save file if you wanna play it. Have a fun October.
