--------------------Original Post---------------------------------------------------

Here is my waterpark custom scenery set (a WIP). Yes, I know that a lot of my textures need to be unwelded, but I can't do it on Wings3D and I don't know my way around other programs.

http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/files/tiki_170.jpg
This is pretty self explanatory. Trying to make ones that fit body and wide slides, so far unsuccessful with the scaling.

http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/files/buoy_184.jpg
Buoys. Need a bit of scaling and lowering.

I am also having some Alpha Map problems,
can anybody help me out? I followed Vohdin's tutorial exactly.

Result

[Belgabor]

Post a screenshot of the model settings in the importer. Make sure all group/mesh settings are visible.

[Smallish]

Hopefully this (http://www.maj.com/gallery/slp/avatars/alpha-help.jpg) includes the group/mesh settings, I'm not sure what they are.

[iceatcs]

Have you put the SIAlpha on the texture style?

[Smallish]

*Slaps head*

Stupid me! Duh!

Many thanks iceatcs!

And now to resize it, because it's very out of scale.

[Jonnyears]

I really like this- It will be a superb addition
to everybodies waterparks, I hope that you
sort out your problems because this is excellent!

Adding to the list now

[Janitor 06]

This looks AMAZING! I know it's not that special, but it's great someone is making a waterpark pack. Maybe I'm going to make a waterpark when you finish this.

[Cheginator]

This stuff is great! I really want a good waterpark set to add to some of the parks I have.

[-Nuclear Fish-]

I like the look of the buoys, they could come in very useful. :up:

[Jonnyears]

I love that rock- So many real places have things like that,
RCT3 needs it too!

[Vodhin]

Hey... I just realized that the rock is a face! Great Idea! :D

[Albert Caine]

Awesome set.

[Sliverfas]

Hey... I just realized that the rock is a face! Great Idea! :D

sweet, i would have never noticed that if you hadnt point that out. sweet set so far :D

[Smallish]

http://img118.imageshack.us/img118/940/speaker7ci.jpg

Here is a speaker, but it's not resized (I'm having some mesh issues). Does anybody know why there's that blue ring around it? And I really need to unweld my objects!

[Vodhin]

The Alpha Mask Image is too large an 'opening' you sould "dialate" edges- make the white area a little bit smaller. You could also try SIAlphaMaskLow as the Alpha Setting in the importer.

[andrewhurley13]

Loving the rock exit! :D

[bim42]

LOVE IT!! Can't wait to see more. :D

[Dism]

GREAT SET!!

[Smallish]

UPDATE:

Innertubes! They WILL be recolorable later.
http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/files/innertube_179.jpg



AND I finally figured out how to unweld, thanks to J-Playa's thread about unwelding.

http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/files/tiki-unweld_155.jpg


I'm also kinda out of ideas. Any waterpark-related requests?

[Sliverfas]

Great job, now i can see the face which looks sweet :D Great innertubes and well everything :D:D:D This set has progressed well and keep up the great work.

[DreamTheater2005]

I actually think that the other rock head looks better because it looks kind of worn down maybe you can say it's from the water and it looks more like a rock. Unless it is just the way you took the shot, then yea. Anyways I like this set! Keep up the great work.

Maybe you can make some of those bars about the closed waterslides for you to hold on to.

[Teirmose]

The slide rock(tunnel) is great. I hope you will make more items like this for the slides. As a matter of fact, I can see items like this being used on some coasters as well.

Nice inner tubes.http://smileymsn.eu/go/Animes/Smiley-msn-com-Animes-87040.gif Do you think you could make some more which are just a little smaller?

How about making a beach ball?http://smileymsn.eu/go/Animes/Smiley-msn-com-Animes-87060.gifhttp://smileymsn.eu/go/Animes/Smiley-msn-com-Animes-87150.gif

Maybe a hammock or two would look cool. http://smileymsn.eu/go/Animes/Smiley-msn-com-Animes-87152.gif They would look decorative if you know what I mean.

I truly like what you are doing. I will be keeping an eye on you thread.http://smileymsn.eu/go/3D/Smiley-msn-com-3D-2229.gif

I'm going to agree with Zach on this one. I liked the first rock face exit thing a lot better too. It looked more natural and not so blocky.

[Janitor 06]

I'm going to agree with Zach on this one. I liked the first rock face exit thing a lot better too. It looked more natural and not so blocky.

Me too. When I saw the first one I thought 'OMG! This set roxorz!!1!'. But the un-welded version is a bit weird, too blocky. The welded version looks really like a rock with a face. This one looks like a face with a rock... ?

[J-Playa]

Looking good! Im glad my Un-Welding thread helped you ;)
Keep up the great work.

[jmbekrub]

i think you should have one of each rocks for the pack. also, could you include some sand volleyball things in this pack?

[andrewhurley13]

I can't wait for updates for this :)

[chrisattack16]

wow this is good stuff. i love the bouys and the tiki head. keep it up! this is going to be a real popular cs set in the future.

[-Nuclear Fish-]

Exactly.

[Old-Spice]

i think you should make that rock exit welded. having it un welded makes it look boxy and un creative.

[StayingDead]

Love it. How about some stackable dingys/different floats to dot around the pool edge.

[Jonnyears]

That's a good idea, it will be very useful

[--=NAT=--]

u should make a have tube (the top half so we can make slides star inclosed
instead of always having to hace them open.

[TyGuy1406]

maybe you can make those inner tubes where there is room for four people like on six flags tornado

[Smallish]

Update!

http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/files/waterpark1_145.jpg
Final speaker


http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/files/waterpark2_148.jpg

This is to close up the back of slide stations. Do you think I should keep this in the set?


http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/files/waterpark3_860.jpg
The star of the update. I plan on making 2D alpha texture objects to place on these walls to decorate them, like palm trees, beach balls, etc. If you have any pictures I could use for an object, please post!

[rctman12]

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love this set

[UberBunny]

So that wall is sort of like a Mural?
If So:
http://img241.imageshack.us/img241/8886/coolmuralji9.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

[LuckyGirl]

Oooh, love the walls! Great idea! Don't forget some palm trees ;)

That dummy is really cool!

[ziggles]

oh i have an idea for the walls. can you make them so we can make any design and they always will mach up. That would be so cool. So we don't always have to follow the samre pattern. That would be nice unless i missed something and you are already doing that.

[Smallish]

oh i have an idea for the walls. can you make them so we can make any design and they always will mach up. That would be so cool. So we don't always have to follow the samre pattern. That would be nice unless i missed something and you are already doing that.
The point of the walls is to have a section of beach, a transition from beach to water, then a section of water. I don't really get what you want.

I realized that that photo I posted did dot even include my favorite new wall piece:

http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/files/waterpark-4_674.jpg
The wave!

I also plan on making a jungle top piece for if you have the beach on top.

You'll probably notice the walls are not postioned right. To fix that I need to move each wall 1.8 units on the x axis. How do I do this in the importer so I don't have to re-import everything?

Also, to use multiple meshes you just import a texture for each mesh, and import the meshes and assign them textures in the create ovl window, right?

Things left to do:
-Make alpha textures
-Make surfboards
-Make billboards/signs (If I figure them out)
-Make icons
-Various welding/unwelding issues to fix

I probably won't even be able to touch the computer this week, but I'm hoping to release this sometime next month.

[AJM]

that looks great, keep it up

[Belgabor]

You'll probably notice the walls are not postioned right. To fix that I need to move each wall 1.8 units on the x axis. How do I do this in the importer so I don't have to re-import everything?
You'll need to recreate the ovls in any case, but if you don't want to change the model files in your modeller, add a translation matrix to the model transformation matrix stack (make sure it's above your coordinate system fix-up matrix in the stack) and recreate the ovl.


Also, to use multiple meshes you just import a texture for each mesh, and import the meshes and assign them textures in the create ovl window, right?

Yes. You can also use the same texture for more than one mesh.

[jmbekrub]

wow, i like what i see.

[Cancerbat]

I think ziggles is asking if your making the palm trees and beach balls etc. Plug in's instead of a picture on the wall.

This set looks fantastic keep it up!

[Sliverfas]

Looks awesome :D Keep up the amazing work :)

[rideslover]

Wow, Just look like a Tidal Wave at Marriott's Great America..

[Smallish]

http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/files/waterpark5_207.jpg

Any other alpha requests?

Wow, Just look like a Tidal Wave at Marriott's Great America..I think you mean Paramount's Great America. And I hope there hasn't been a tidal wave.

EDIT: Hey, You're right (http://www.rcdb.com/ig75.htm?picture=15)!

[andrewhurley13]

Great job , although ... they look a little strange :S

[Smallish]

http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/files/waterpark6_492.jpg
Oh, hey, here's another thing I found you could do.

[Sliverfas]

Looks great :D Love it :)

[DarkMeasures]

Those wave walls are perfect for a Tidal Wave recreation.

http://p2.rcdb.com/picmax/six-flags-great-america/tidal-wave2.jpg

[Jag100]

Nice very good. Alot of new CS makers i can see now :)

[Nelson340]

Hmm....Maybe you can do "covers" for the pool seats to make them look like they're a different color? (Similar to the Pavement Essentials Aceana made.)

[Mr.Me101]

WOW this will really help me with (and make me want to build:noob: ) Waterparks

Good Job

[skippytim]

How about a starfish sign that says "Waterpark"?

[RCT-Spanky]

Looks like a very promising Set. Did you make the dummy? Real cool in his shorts.

The wave-walls are fantastic. I would leave them without the dolphins etc. They look much better without these objects.

The palm-tree is my favouite, but I would make the trunk as a solid object.

Keep it up :up::up::up::up::up:

[Ryan Nugent]

hey what if you make some wall and roof pieces and others with holes in them to make an indoor water park !!! building

[Mr.Me101]

I know this would probobly be kinda hard but you should make some cool looking curved, inclined, and straight tunnels for the slide to into.

[Smallish]

"OK, everybody gather around for the group photo!"

Sneak Peak!!

[Loqo]

This would be very handy for alot of people including me :) keep it up!

[jmbekrub]

what is it?

I'm impressed! Keep up the great work! :up:

[rideslover]

Look great, can you make me a old rowboat or lifeboat? great for the shipwreck island waterslide....

[CDN1212]

The set is looking great. Just what the game needed. :)

[time0fyourlif3]

I've been waiting for a waterpark set to come out. Looks great!

EDIT: I have a suggestion for your set (I just saw your back for the water slides). Maybe they should looks like this. (http://www.rapidswaterpark.com/i/t/11-superbowls-baby_blue2-sm.jpg)

[Ryan Nugent]

o thank god i thought this thread died
cant cait for it to be released !!!!! :)

[sr3d]

Sweet, can't wait for it to be released :D

[Spheremaster]

SWEET!

[Ryan Nugent]

no i was wrong this thread is dead

i hate it when this happens :mad:

so much for water park C

[J_DeRosa15]

Yup. Unless someone can show us otherwise. :rolleyes: "hint"

I am not getting down on you or anything but I see a lot of great sets that are blown. I really don't want to see this one do that. If anything, let someone else take it over or just release it ;) :bored:

[Smallish]

Oh, man, I really should get to releasing this set. You guys just seem to be dying for it! But honestly, I think my corral set is much more useful than this.

Anyway, does anybody want this big ol' block of fake water in the set?
http://www.maj.com/gallery/slp/photography/wcustom3.jpg

[sigsig76]

Hello, this set is very good!!! i cant wait for the released day :up:
but, can you make spongebob objekts?

[DarkMeasures]

I like the set and think it is very useful. It would be cool to see a bunch of different types of slide flume exit thingies.

[MrPKI]

Hello, this set is very good!!! i cant wait for the released day :up:
but, can you make spongebob objekts?

There are already some SpongeBob objects. Check the complete list of scenery thread.

I think you should add those blocks of water into the set; they're a nice extra. Although I might suggest making them in quarter tiles and also a small center tile piece, so that they're more versitile. Also I might suggest that you make it so that when you can put the wall on the same tile (so that you don't have to have disconnected walls at the corners). Hopefully that makes sense. Keep up the great work on this set.:up:

[Spheremaster]

hey ya gimme the water bloks I know how to use it!

[The Fonz]

I'm diggin' them water blocks, could you also make curved and diagonal version of it, so they could match Acena's (sp?) paths?

[sr3d]

Awesome water blocks, could you maybe release a beta version of the pack for us all to mess about with before the final release? It'd be awesome if you could, don't mean to rush you though.

[The Dave]

Nice set you'v got here. Keep the water blocks! They will be really useful.

[StarRngr4.0]

I dunno about the blocks, but definatly if you go with flat faced water pieces like in the pavement packs it will probobly be a winner...

[Smallish]

Okey Dokey guys.

I've decided to release the water block in a later set to get this set off my back soon. I've fixed some positioning with the transformation matrix and now all of the actual models I decree done EXCEPT the two pieces... FROM HELL!!!!!!

http://www.maj.com/gallery/slp/RCT3/waterpark-8.jpg

These pieces are giving me a constant throbbing headache. Actually, I have declared the rope done now that it is unwelded, but the texture is now not totally lining up. The buoy is simply too big! I'll see if I can scale it with a transformation matrix.


But other than that, This set just needs icons and it can be released!

In other news, I'll be at Disneyland tomorrow!:ooolala-sign:

[rt3dude]

Have fun at Disneyland!

[sr3d]

Sorry to bump this thread, but how's the set going? I think everyone is eager to use it (Including me :p )

[Smallish]

Well, I've decided against releasing a beta version.

Because the real version is done.

And you can download it.

Now. (http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/download.php?id=114001)

[Spheremaster]

WOOHOO!
this is the greatest day scince Jcat released his space worx set!

[sr3d]

WOW Thanks ever so much :):up:

[Smallish]

Wow! 120 downloads in the first 24 hours! That's one every 12 minutes!

It's funny, I didn't know everybody wanted this set so much! Whenever I stopped working on it for a while someone would bump this topic and express their frustration because of the lack of updates. When I started this set half a year ago I was 12 and a half and had no idea even how to unweld and object!

Anyways, have fun with this set, all 120 of you.

[3vryde]

i think its AWSOME! i hope it doesnt crash my system like most custom scenery does, well, im off to dowmload! Ta Ta!

_____________________________________________________
i rule the ride, 3vryde that is...

Great News! It crashed my system..... it does that with pretty much every one of the custom scenery's. Anyone have any advice? Please?

[Ice101]

please pay no attention to this reply.

[callmecosmo]

Ice, did you not read the thread, it has been released. Perhaps read next time before being so rude.
Nice set Smallish!

Happy Building.

[rideslover]

look good smallish.

[Old-Spice]

FREAKING RELEASE IT.

I need it for my park


well that is NOT nice! News flash buddy.... he/she does not take orders from you. he/she is making a set for us with THEIR time. there doing it for free, for you and me... its not up to you, me, or mr. tom glee when this set is releaced....

next time try not being mean.

if you want something that bad... well.... make it your self..
----------------------------------------------------------------------

love the set!. looks fantastic!

[RCT-Spanky]

FREAKING RELEASE IT.

I need it for my park

First: Read the thread, before you start to yell

Second: No-One needs here anything for a park. What would you build, if this set was never announced or released.

Third: A little apologize to smallish would be nice.

[I like waffles]

I agree with the top two posts^

I yelled once when I first came and now have
Infractions: 1/0 (0)
I have learned my lesson.

[cjleonard]

Hmm, just thinking about that comment from Ice101 - I knew there was a reason I'd never released anything I've made, except to one person. And in hindsight, to anyone who's downloaded Thierry's DLRP Main Street, and have downloaded the Dentist sign / trashcan, you're welcome ;)

But back on topic, Smallish, great work! :D

[Mecawave]

A section for waterslides to do like the slide at aquatica that goes through the dolphin tank with a clear track/slidefile:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/VICKIE%7E1/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.jpg

[fathorse]

You realize this was released 2 years ago right?

[Mecawave]

...so, ya can make a second pack

[RCT3Callum]

Or maybe we shouldn't be an idiot, and accept that this is the set.

Maybe you should learn the world doesn't revolve around you?
Maybe you should learn to read rules and stickies (I know you didn't by the pathetic attempt at posting an image)
Maybe you should learn it's physically impossible to model something off a picture you can't see?
Maybe you should learn that no-one is going to make a whole new set containing one item for you, 2 years after finishing the first one.

[OFTBC]

Sorry if I'm being a noob but this is doing my head in now, I have put the folder in style/themed and can find some of the things in game but some of them seem to be missing or I just can't find them so any advice would be great thanks.

[coasterfreak]

^dude, you talking about this set, or a different set?

[OFTBC]

^dude, you talking about this set, or a different set?Yes sorry this set.

[Ryan Nugget]

^ How do you know that you are missing pieces? I have this set and there are not that many. Also go in to the file and go through all of the pathways to see if anything is out of place. If that does not work, try and re-download it :)
