[madshell]

They look wonderful, but are they poly heavy?

[supercoolsuper]

AAAHHHH! My worst Nightmare come true again! The ride Journey Into Imagination With Figment, is a definet must NOT see when you go to Epcot.

Nice set though.

[mcjaco]

Stupid work PC, the pic is blocked. I'll have to wait until I get home.

I actually began messing around with my EPCOT recreation again, last night. There's a lot of CS coming that will help me with where I've been stuck the last few months.

[michielh3]

looks good , but the rigth piramides look a little to poly heavy .. or is that the texture ...

[DisneyFellow]

[Westcot]

:eek2: Dude, I just crapped my pants! (not really :haha:)

This is amazing! I've been waiting for this for so long!

[Albert Caine]

Lol, But Epcot used to be very boring before MISSION: Space and Test Track

True :p I like it a lot better now! But Magic Kingdom still my favorite :heart:

[Westcot]

Lol, But Epcot used to be very boring before MISSION: Space and Test Track


That may be true, the the true intension of EPCOT Center was to display future technologies and explore the different "futuristic" topics such as energy (Universe of Energy), motion (World of Motion), communication (Spaceship Earth), earth (The Land), ocean (The Living Seas), human health (Wonders of Life), and future living (Horizons). Imagination fits in there somewhere, too. Now World of Motion has turned into Test Track, Horizons was demolished and turned into Mission: SPACE, The Living Seas was renovated into The Seas with Nemo and Friends, World of Motion was renovated into Ellen's Energy Adventure, and Wonders of Life is currently being gutted to be turned into convention center space.

The true intention was to explore the 21st century (what is right now). And now that we are there, people are no longer into the slow dark ride-type rides. They want thrills, and that's exactly what Disney gave them. I just think that they kind of lost the whole point of what Future World was at Epcot: the future!

Okay, enough of my rambling. I do understand how you said that it was boring, though. Also, can we expect a Living Seas set as well?

[Albert Caine]

I dont mean to bother you but Could you make a Mission Space Pavillion please?
It is true that Epcot has lost it's original intention and pushing it further away from what Walt Disney wanted.

[DisneyFellow]

Dear Albert Caine, And Wescot,

I guess i can try to attemp to make those pavillions......

however i am brand spankin new to cs so it may not look the best but i will try!

I will work tonight on a 1- Nemo Seas, 2- the old seas, 3- wonders of life, 4- MISSION: Space!

Post and comment so i can update later!

[Albert Caine]

Thanks for taking on the requests. ;)

[mcjaco]

OK, now that I'm home, I just pooped my pants! These are excellent and just what's been slowing me down. I've been fighting with the land glass structure for months, and totally unsure on how to dow WoM, Horizons and UofE. I'd love to be a beta tester (hint, hint). :haha:

White one is origonal and blue is nemo

[Albert Caine]

not bad at all. ;)

[DisneyFellow]

I bet its a poly monster.............

[DrctBoy]

Looks great! The Horizons and Living Seas buildings are great!

Great job. :up:

[Westcot]

Thanks for taking my request! That Horizons building ROCKS! The Living Seas looks good as well, except that the front curve/wave thing has to slant down. Can you do that in SketchUp or can it only stay level.

Anyway, I've been waiting on a set like this for ages! Keep up the good work!

EDIT: I'm sorry, but I've got one last thing to request, and that will be it (I know how much hard work that you're putting into this set). Could you make some pavilion signs such as Horizons and UOE?

[Brock]

Wow! Those buildings are so realistic! Fantastic job! :)

[Simpleplantb]

Nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:up:

Also, here's a link to a gallery that I set up a while ago with a 360 degree view of Horizons if you need it for minor details...

http://s191.photobucket.com/albums/z205/horizons16/

I know that Disney buildings have so much detail in them, that it's almost impossible to make them. This is an awesome set!

[DisneyFellow]

http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l194/nickofthecaribbean/new.jpg

New living seas! Sorry but i think this and the mission space pieces might be in the second set!..........unless i can reduce polly quick

http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l194/nickofthecaribbean/cool-1.jpg

Take a flight like u couldnt imagine...HORIZONS! lloll


http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l194/nickofthecaribbean/si.jpg


i had to make it!!! i had a perfect texture!!!

[Albert Caine]

Those are great! If you need more time for the living seas and mission space go ahead and take it, I know we would all rather wait a little longer have a biggger set. ;) We're happy you are even making this! :up:

[michielh3]

happy birthday to you :D

[pitchounais]

Happy birthday to you from the other part of the World.

:hat::hat::hat::hat:

But really nice job. it looks like really great. Continue like that.;)

[DisneyFellow]

Thanks Guys!

Im also glad u guys like my set!!!

[mcjaco]

Couple of questions. 1) Are the glass pieces one big piece, or broken into smaller pieces? 2) What's the difference between the Imagination pyramids? They'e never changed them as far as I know. 3) Like the glass pieces, I'm assuming these are all small sections of the buildings that can be placed. We all know RCT3's hatred for huge scenery pieces.

[Westcot]

Excellent! So you'll be releasing two sets then?

Happy "B-day" by the way!

EDIT: What about the windows and doors on Horizons?

[madshell]

Thanks Guys!

Im also glad u guys like my set!!!

Absolutely!

We need to see some imported pics. That will get us REALLY excited. It's one thing to build these structures in Sketchup, but to put them in RCT3 is another journey.

I have built all of these structures and imported into Google Earth :) But I couldn't get them down to any decent poly count for RCT3.
I'm wondering (and hoping) if you can.

I am so overjoyed to see another join in making Epcot CSOs. For a while, I thought myself the only person interested in doing it.

1- They are 1 piece
2- The origonal pyramids were gray! they have changed over the years! when captain EO and the origonal figment ride with the dream finder was around was the time period when the pramids where gray
3- Yes. Most of the glass pieces are scenery add ons so u can make your pavillions look more real
Excellent! So you'll be releasing two sets then?

Happy "B-day" by the way!

EDIT: What about the windows and doors on Horizons?

I cant make that pecause of polys and i cant over lay faces without a funny looking texture.......i think shyguy has a set with the same exact doors and windows! rember im new to sketch up so yeah!


Any Suggestions for set two??? if u noteced i am currently starting to work on a SPLASH MOUNTAIN CS set!


Update and reales of this set soon! comment

Unfortunatly..............im dont know how to import. But Alex (rctman12) is importing the pieces for me! he already strated to import! this set should be done very very soon

[Albert Caine]

Happy Birthday! :D
I cant wait for the release. Any in-game pics yet?

[Westcot]

I just wanted to point out (because I just noticed it) that the front view shape of Horizons is not right. The slanted roof should really end at the large beams closest to the outside.

I'm not mad or anything, just helping you make it correct. :D

http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p227/WFTSfan/horizons.jpg

You don't have to fix it, after all, it's your CS set. Just trying to help.

Also, you wanted some suggestions for the next set, right? How about some CommuniCore roof pieces or the Spaceship Earth post show building?

[shaqinblak]

these buildings are pretty awesome. Any change you can make CS for the actual spaceship earth ride, not the dome but the interior? I know thats a huge demand!

[DisneyFellow]

http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l194/nickofthecaribbean/newhorizons.jpg

New Horizons!!! This is the exact Correct shape now! i realised my last shapes were off!

enjoy! and comment

[Albert Caine]

I dont remember this ride but I love your building!

Awesome job on improving Horizons! :D

Yeah, Horizons opened October 1983 and closed 1999 (December or January, I think) because of a large sink hole that opened under it. It had also lost its sponsor years ahead and was very outdated (it talked about heading into the 21st century which was then about to occur anyway).

I really wish that I could have seen the ride in person, and if I did, I'd be too little to remember it. It's really a shame that it's gone though, because I've heard that it was one of EPCOT Center's best rides.

[mcjaco]

^ The sink hole story is just a rumor. They were already in the planning stages of a new ride for the area. Test Track's delay just made the pavilion stick around a little longer.

I have a POV of Horizons on youtube. Just lookup mcjaco23. It was the best ride IMHO.

I really am hoping that you make these into smaller pieces, as I fear the large objects will make RCT3 unplayable. That is, if you can even place them without it crashing.

[JackyX]

COOL

Well, it may be true that they kept it open while Test Track was under construction, but after they demolished the building there are pictures of a large sinkhole which they had metal walls and supports in and were filling it. Disney would not have demolished such an expensive building if it wasn't for this. They could have gutted it to put Mission: SPACE into (Mission: SPACE is WAY smaller than the Horizons building), but (again) it was the sinkhole. The building was just too heavy for it.

The sinkhole is a true fact disney told the public in 2000 (i think) So i know for sure that factor is proven true!


And has anyone made a hoizons rec? if so can i see a link

I've been searching forever, but I haven't found any. I plan on recreating it as soon as I get a better computer.

[DisneyFellow]

i guess a Horizons Rec would be hard because the ride was reallly really really long and it would require a ton of Custoom Scenery lmao

[mcjaco]

I had started one, but because I couldn't make the actual structure, I gave up for the time being. You could essentially make a "generic" looking Horizons with some of the custom and default scenery.

[DisneyFellow]

If theres anyone out there willing to help me with my set (importing) that will be greatly apprecitated! if u will the set will be released quicker and you will get a little supprise *wink*

So if you can PM me or contact me on MSN!

Thanks

[Westcot]

Hey, I wondered whatever happened to this set.

I wish I could help you, but I'm struggling to learn SketchUp at this point. Sorry... :(
