My Cedar Point Recreation--Bad News

[rctguy123]

I just started a new Cedar Point recreation!!!!! I plan on finishing it and there will eventually be a download. This will probably sound very noobish but i don't know how to make a dpwnload for a park so if someone could tell me that would be extremely helpful. I don't know if I should do the park in two part or one cause i plan on doing Soak City and everything. Well enough talk, here it is.

Hi, we are Tony and Tyler. You probably know who we are from the Cedar Point Blog. We will be the ones to present this park to you.

Well, before we got started today Tony had to go to the bathroom.




http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0007-1.jpg

Then we rode Demon Drop. I think Tyler was a little scared.




http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0008-1.jpg

He enjoyed it though.




http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0009.jpg

After that we played some Half Court Hoops. Tyler was mad cause I was beating him.

Can anyone tell me where I can find an invisible entrance. If you do please tell me it will be very helpful. I will most likely have the next update on Sunday. Please comment. :D

Just click download and boom you get your Invisible Entrance.

[guitarist4life]

dont worry about an invisible entrance, if you dont even place an entrance, guests will automatically generate at either random places in the park, or where their first ride to ride is. it will space out guests in your park much much better, and youll have guests everywhere, even the least popular areas.

[stormrunner2592]

very nice cp so far i like it

[maskedbandit101]

If memory serves me correctly, this looks mighty accurate. Good luck on the coasters, because from what I hear, they're very difficult to recreate in RCT3...lookin' forward to more updates!

[~LoveTulie]

Pretty acurate, actually. It's really nice!

If you are not already, I'd suggest looking at pictures from www.Pointpixels.com. It has loads of images.

That was really creative using the Extended Track to make it diagnol. Nice work! I wish I would have thought of that when I was making this...

Anyway, cant wait to see more!

[rctguy123]

Sorry guys, I said I'd have an update today. It's been a very busy weekend. I'll try to have an update tomorrow or Tuesday.

[ytivarg]

Ingenious use of the coaster track to get DD at the 45 like it should be... although, some more support under the pullout would do some good. Right now, the track looks like it's just hanging there. You might want to add the return-to-station track, too. It'd help beef up the underside of it.

Looks good so far. But, I hope you plan on breaking the park up into at least 2 parts... it won't all fit detail-for-detail on one map.. not to mention the lag you'll suffer.

[fishycracker]

looks nice

[CedarFreak]

Nice job! I just got back and the donut place is really accurate! We stopped their at the beginning and had to wait along time because someone in our group wanted coffee. It looks exactly like it. One suggestion, your paths are a little too wide.

[ytivarg]

^Paths are just right, actually... it's pretty accurate placement between the storefronts and the middle flowerbeds.

http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/fun/webcams/webcam.cfm?chip=1

I think any less would make it look too compact.

[adamb241]

This is very good, the detail is amazing!

[deathfearsnone]

i'm very curious to see your demon drop in action i never seen this coaster used for it but very detailed and the track looks awesome

[Silver Park]

Coasterfreak is doing an animated scenery of Demon Drop,could be good for your park!

<removed advertising>

Click on "Custom Scenery" and you`ll easy find the thread!

[biogal]

Silver Park, don't give unsolicited "help". You don't have any room for another infraction.

[Mr. coaster]

Looks pretty good! That demon Drop look very good!

[angryemobeaver]

Looks good.

Hey it's us again. (Notice anything in the background.)



http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0018-2.jpg

We stopped at Midway Market to get some food.



http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0019-2.jpg

Then we headed over to the Picnic Pavilion to eat.



http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0021-2.jpg

Tony had to go to the bathroom, again.




Sorry for the small update. More soon


http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0022-1.jpg


Please comment. :D

[BigLouie]

cool, can't wait to see more of Raptor

[Immelman]

I've been to this park many times and you did a good job making it accurate. Everything is in the right place and it looks very familiar.

I just have a couple suggestions regarding color. The Midway Market has the right shape to it, but the colors don't match. Also Raptor's supports are closer to a teal color than they are a dark green.

Good luck, this is quite an undertanking!

[maskedbandit101]

I agree with Immelman...the supports should be more teal/aqua. Also, I think the cars are more black and purple, with less green...like this link (http://www.mrsmcelwee.com/coaster/graphics/raptor4.jpg)
I'm only mentioning this because you've been so accurate thus far. Keep up the outstanding work.

[rctguy123]

Thanks for all the comments.

Here's a teaser of whats coming on sunday.



http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0023-2.jpg

[BigLouie]

SWEET!!! :D can't wait to see more!

[supermarioman]

It looks good.:up: I've never been to Cedar Point, so I can't comment beyond that.

[rctguy123]

Cedar Point


Raptor

http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0025-2.jpg

Here's the layout. As you can see I didn't really finish the surrounding area. I wanted to see what you guys thought about the layout before I kept going.



http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0026-2.jpg



http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0027-2.jpg



http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0028-1.jpg

The station.



http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0029-1.jpg

I couldn't fit the entire ending in there so I just put a helix.



That's all for today, Please comment. :D

[rctman12]

amzing job!!

[Coaster88]

This is a really great park!!!! Good luck though because eventually there will be lots of lag.

Also I already have a very accurate recreation of Maverick. So if you want me to send it to you just let me know. I only have the ride done I am not good with scenery.

[Coaster_Genius]

YAYYY!!! MY FAVORITE AMUSEMENT PARK OF ALL TIME...THE ONE...THE ONLY...CEDAR POINT, AMERICAS ROLLER COAST! And its ur lucky day because the ride that I love to go on is RAPTOR, and ur re-creation gets me excited, can u make a POV for me please?

[Coaster88]

http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z54/coaster88/raptordiag.gif

Here is a Picture of Raptor to help you.... I will show you somthing that you need to fix.

http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z54/coaster88/Raptorfix.jpg

as you can see in the black and white pic there is not an inversion, but there is one on your picture. It is not and Inversion it is more like a "U" turn. If you do not see it in the black and white picture just trust me that there is not an inversion there.. I know this because I have ridden the ride about 5 times and have never seen the inversion there. I know that you shortend that because there isn't enough room but you should just leave what you have but take out the inversion becuase with it in there it just doesn't look as realistic as it usually does. If you don't want to thats ok because I see your point of view on it. Also the supports on the ride are more of a turquoise color and not green.
http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z54/coaster88/raptor005.jpg

See... You can leave them green if you want to but it will look more realistic and a lot better if they are the turquoise color insteads of green.... Also Did you get the Private Message I sent you????? If you accept it I can do the things that I "Complaining" about.
(when I say complaing I mean constructive chritisism)


I will also give you the link for the POV of Raptor on Cedar Point's web-site and you will see that there is no inversion.
http://www.cedarpoint.com/_includes/flash/media_player_popup.cfm?videoID=9280&videoWidth=320 (http://www.cedarpoint.com/_includes/flash/media_player_popup.cfm?videoID=9280&videoWidth=320)
^^^^^^^^HERE IS TE LIINK^^^^^^^^

also if you would like POV's of the other roller coaster just tell me and I will get them for you.

Besides that one problem that I showed you the rest of the ride seems very acurate.


I love the park so far tooO!!!!!!!!!


Also you may want to post what Custom Scenery you are using so that when the park is put up for download it doesn't crash.

[rctguy123]

Cedar Point


I've changed the layout of Raptor a bit so that I could fit in Cedar Downs.

http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0002-2.jpg



I also changed this part

http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0001-2.jpg



I also changed this to just a helix.

http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0000-2.jpg



Tell me what you think. :D



More soon.

http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0003-2.jpg

[~Supernova]

Three Words: TTD

[~LoveTulie]

No no no! Okay, before the helix to go into the station, that should be a corkscrew, THEN the helix. It's not a twist...

[CoasterMouse]

Wish I was there right now. Good CP Rec. from what I can see. I don't have good photographic memory from when I was there but it's coming back to me now. Great Work!

[plahiaat]

I really think you have done a good job on the park up till now and I hope you are able to make a lot of attractions from cedarpoint as realistic as posible.
My suggestions on Raptor. When you turn to the station, I would go down, do a corkscrew, make a small turn and then do a big turn. You are arriving at the station with a helix and an inversion.

But anyway this are details, you can't make every attraction with rollercoaster and you are doing a great job!

[rctguy123]

Cedar Point



I fixed the end so it does a corkscrew and two turns into the station. I know the first turn is supposed to be a helix, but I couldn't fit the entire helix.

http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x225/briguy91394/Shot0004-2.jpg



Tell me what you think. Please comment.:D

[~LoveTulie]

Ahh, looks MUCH better!

[Coaster88]

Yes I agree Much better!!!!!!!!!

[Coaster_Genius]

This is excellent, I love Raptor. Do u plan on adding custom supports to it?

[-Drop Zone-]

Great job on Raptor, Its a pretty hard coaster to re-create, and it looks almost perfect!

[CoasterMouse]

Agreed! Way Better!

[deathfearsnone]

the helix it goes around one more time then you will have it right

[Cedar Point]

We know. He couldn't fit in another one.

[rctguy123]

Sorry I haven't had an update in awhile. I have been overwhelmed with homework. I also just got Super Mario Galaxy and I am addicted. With Thanksgiving break I will have more time to work on it so I'll probably have an update this week.

[Coaster88]

can't wait

also come check out my park and tell me what you think

[Azn_warrior]

wow looks very good.. i wanna see how ur gonna do maverick :D

[rctguy123]

Bad News

[BigLouie]

[gavt1976]

I think this would be a great park if you finish it, i hope that you can finish it.
