[LoneWolf7]

nice start, but try to vary your palms a little bit more, mix it up. ;)

[liamrocks]

I really like what you have done to it so far! Keep it up!

[williamsoft man]

^same i like it. and the person who said vary your trees a little deserves to be shot. read the title it says palm springs. oh and love the fact that you will be putting in a hotel. cant wait for more!

[Rct3Mike]

I agree with Lone Wolf, even though the park is called Palm Springs there are like 10 kinds of palm trees in the game, instead of just the 1 you used.

Thats it for now, please let me know what you think. Next update on monday, hopefully.

I forgot to say thank you to Liamrocks & Willo22sly for the logos and signs. Thanks.

Woodmchelancote

[williamsoft man]

nice!!! does there have to be so many big chain resteraunts? and in pic 3 with the monorail it looks like the monorail only goes over the path. and why does venom have to go? couldnt you just "relocate" it?

[woodmchelancote]

nice!!! does there have to be so many big chain resteraunts? and in pic 3 with the monorail it looks like the monorail only goes over the path. and why does venom have to go? couldnt you just "relocate" it?

Thanks Williamsoft Man for your coments,
I thought the park could do with some big names, yes the monorail does just go over the path at the moment. When the park gets bigger over time i might make the monorail go around the park. As for Venon, i had not thought about relocating it, i will think about that.

[williamsoft man]

^good luck finding a spot for venom, as for the monorail just another money makin' scheme eh? ah well good luck with it!

[gavt1976]

I like the logo mark and the park does look fine and i hope that you keep working on this one and try to improve it more.

[woodmchelancote]

Hi,

Woodmchelancote

[williamsoft man]

wow this looks really good! and first to comment after the update!yay

[liamrocks]

Loving it! Venom was going to be the next big ride, for all of you out there;)

[randomperpie]

I feel as though the pool is missing something, can't put my finger on it, but it's missing something....
Edit: Also, the last turn on Tango should be banked, looks fairly intense.

[woodmchelancote]

Thanks Williamsoft man, Liamrocks & Randomperpie for your coments.

[kraken613]

Looking good! Not amazing but just keep it up!

[willo22sly]

Looks promising, just try and add more detail ot everything.....

[elljhitch]

I agree with Willo, it looks promising, just try to add some more detail!

[djfriktion]

Hmmm...this looks very promising...I think just take your time and build constuctivley...make sure your theme is eye catching. I think your doing a great job.

[Sfmm_100]

I like it,
I hope you theme the water park section!

[williamsoft man]

wow! this is looking really good now! are you planning on any sponsoring things in the future?

[rydrmr9]

wow this is coming along nicely cant wait to see more!

[woodmchelancote]

Hi everyone,
Thanks for all your coments. Update time again, sorry for the long wait but i have been really busy this week. On with the update.

http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/2831/swim1tk8.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

What could this be about? Any ideas let me know.

Thats it for this update, once again thanks for your coments. Keep them coming.

Woodmchelancote:noob:

[DisneySea2008]

Ok well sorry to sound so rude and arrogant but i want a refund.

Very disspleasing, Pizza Hut hasn't got any windows, nor Mc Donalds?.

Getting to the slides seems a bit of a trek lol. You should use the spiral steps and place at the botton just a normal pool walkway that u use around the pool.

That probs sounds quiet confusing.

[Rct3Mike]

To be honest this park isn't really that good.

-Black floors under the disco? It looks eiww.
-No pathcovers
-Ugly pizza hut
-All of he screenshots are taken from a birds eye view. Try looking at other peoples parks and see how they do their screenshots.

Shall I continue?

Now its not the worst park in the world only because of all the work Liam did...

[williamsoft man]

hey i like it! i do agree with the others on two things though, ADD WINDOWS TO PIZZA HUT AND MCDONALDS! but apart from that this all looks really good!

[89James89]

Yer some windows would help and I dont care about the long trek to the slides it just seems wierd with the stairs for them being like they are. i would just have path going to the base of the slide then the spiral staircase as it looks awkard at the moment.

That aside the park is improving rapildy with each update so keep it up!

Cheers

89James89

[xfreakx1687]

I don't want to sounds harsh but the buildings are very un-realistic. There are no windows in the restaurants and its very hard to get to the slides. Also try and vary your usage of greenery and plants, if your going for an island look there's a lot to work with in this game so make use of it. Otherwise your off to a good start so I would like to see more.

[rydrmr9]

just add windows to the resteraunts and thats about it. those black floors under disco are a little weird. but other than that its really good.

[9wid]

This is quite a nice little park.

Instead of using a tropical theme overall, can I recommend using a desert theme closer to Palm Springs, California?

Hey, can I also offer my knowledge of Adobe Photoshop to create for you a stronger logo?

[woodmchelancote]

Hi everyone,
Sorry for long wait between update i have be really busy so i have had no time to do any work on the park. On with the update.

Venom is closed and will reopen when the new area is finished.

That is it for this update, please let me know what you think. Thanks to Brawlstar032196 for the logos & to everyone that has comented.
Also if anyone is good at making fireworks/water shows or if they know anyone that is, can you please PM me. I have tryed making one but it is rubbish. I have the music & an idea of what i want the show to look like.

Woodmchelancote:up:

[- Nesiroo -]

Okay, here is my review:

I think that the park has improved from the first update a little bit, but the problem is that your buildings are just too plain. You need to add windows to the Pirate Falls station facade and vary it a little bit. BuI think that what you've done to the restaurants is pretty nice, but yes, I do think that you should add a little more detail than it already have. And you also shouldn't have to put chairs near every single fence, you should lower down the chars just a bit. Plus, why are you showing us the hotel when all there is is just a tiny little empty peck of land? Try to build something completely before you show it to us.

[gavt1976]

When is the next update coming because i am looking forward seeing more from it and i hope it is soon.

[Raq]

Mc donalds? Mcdoanalds?! Mc donalds!!! :angry: Scrape it! Scrape it now!

Thats it for this update, next update will be about the new area. Please keep the coments coming.

woodmchelancote

[liamrocks]

The Buildings are too blocky! Try to randomize then a bit more! I think you should also stick with the same theme through the park.

[rydrmr9]

^ i agree, also ad supports to that coaster, but overall looks good!

~rydrmr9

[gavt1976]

Mark, the buildings are too blocky and i don't like them, why don't you have a look at other people's parks on the forum so that you can get ideas on how to make your buildings not that blocky ok.

[Sfmm_100]

Nice
but i think you should add mountains
to make it look more realistic!
:D

[ljconnolly1]

looking better and better

[simonlokwokman]

Resort -- I expect a hotel or more relaxing place rather than exciting rides such as gardens, golf, sea food restaurants...
But the park look nice, good work

[williamsoft man]

wow, this looks good, i hope you keep it going!

[woodmchelancote]

Hi again,

I have another update for you, this is a small one this time.
Thanks to everyone that has comented on the park, i will take everything on board & i hope you all see inprovements in the park over time.

Woodmchelancote

[rydrmr9]

gettin better and better! =) post for post on batman?

[angryemobeaver]

Looks better. You should make custom supports on the Schwarzkoph.

[gavt1976]

I do like the hotel & pool, but i think that you should move the hotel & pool away from the music stage, because you can then have the hotel & pool together and it would look good.

[woodmchelancote]

Hi everyone,

[liamrocks]

Its alright. Could you give an overview of the park? That might help me judge things more... I kind like goes WILD, area.

[williamsoft man]

wow! this looks really good! i hope you continue this park!

[rydrmr9]

on the resteraunt buildings you need to make them stand out more by adding more variety to those walls. but still is looking good!

[woodmchelancote]

Its alright. Could you give an overview of the park? That might help me judge things more... I kind like goes WILD, area.


Here you go Liam, a picture of the whole park so far:

Ok, from what I can see, you strayed too far from my style. I can simply pick out the parts of the park I made, and what you added. Its too different for my taste.

[woodmchelancote]

Thanks Gavt1976,
Here is the next update.


Its only a small one this time as my computer crashed and i lost most off the work i had this week, i had save all my work but it still lost it for some reason. Thats why there is not much to show in this update. Hopefully it does not happen again. How on with the update:

http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/1697/rollersoaker.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

A new rollercoaster has opened, its called: Roller Soaker & as you can see from the picture, the peeps love it.

This is the new family area of the park called: Circus Land.

Circus land again.

Thats is for this update, more on Circus Land & Goes Wild area in the next update. Thanks for the coments, please keep them coming.

Woodmchelancote.

[gavt1976]

It looks ok mate but i think you should used poles for the tent things in the second picture down in the update because they don't look right, but i still like the park so keep at it.

[liamrocks]

^Agreed. I also think that some more theme should be added.

[rydrmr9]

LOOKIN BETTER EVERY UPDATE!!! =)

[randomperpie]

Roller Soaker looks fun, but I'm not so sure about Circus land...

[djfriktion]

Ok I took a look at your park once again and I am gonna be honest I am not trying to offend u in any way. I have been building parks for a couple of years now and I learned from making mistakes. I will say that some parts of your park look good but then there are some parts of the park where it looks very plain and that could be because of needing better themes. Word of advise when construction a park you always want to have your park tell a story. Think about what will catch your eye if you went to a theme park? Why would people want to come to this theme park? Is it cuz of the themed area's that flow nicely? How do your attraction follow into your theme park? For example my "Hollywood Backlot Studios" I can tell you I have remade my park about 5 times before I was really happy with it and put it up for release. So I had to think about what I wanted this year to make my theme park even better as a "Movie Studio" type theme park. As advice I will say before going any further with your park to honestly take a strong hard look at your theme. Cuz I think this could be an amazing park if thought out more. Your going in the right direction. I am saying this to you cuz you wrote me and asked for advice. My parks have been very successful in the past but it's from learning from mistakes. It takes time to learn how to build around themes...and I think this could be great addition if thought out alittle better. Again I do not mean this in a negative way cuz I think your doing a good job just needs some tweaking. But keep up the good work and I am here if ya need advice :)
