Midnight Cove: Rainy Day

[-MoNtU]

I'm not one to show parking lot pictures, but I thought this was an exception.

Will explain more later. ;) But the coaster may look familiar to some older members.. but I doubt they'll remember. :p

PS: Still working on PBR, well I'm almost done with it (mainly grunt work left)... so I started up something new.

[SVT 305]

I think you're allowed to post parking lot pictures if they have something like that in the background!

Looks beautiful. It's nice to see some massive rides that aren't overdone.

[DJ Screech 09]

Wow O.o

Looks very original. The first drop on the coaster is unique.

MOAR!

[LostThought15]

Looks pretty nice, though I'd suggest adding edges to further distinguish between the road and side walk.

[Jacksonbill]

omg. cant wait

[-NGS-]

*me smiles*

[angryemobeaver]

I like it alot! By Crescent, are you meaning like the Bread thing? Lol...

[Hotasflames99]

Wow! This is wonderful! Can't wait to see more!

[DJ Screech 09]

I like it alot! By Crescent, are you meaning like the Bread thing? Lol...

That's "croissant" lol.

[LightGrenades]

Love your Tropical theming ability. Can't wait to see more. Don't keep us waiting long....

[~LoveTulie]

The coaster looks just as awesome as your other coasts have been!

Like LtG said, I love your tropical theming ability! Haha, lovely parking lot by the way :p

[tyc00n10]

Oh man, look at those awesome lines, and those traffic cones are AWESOME. The flat, barren land is so inviting, I wonder how many gas guzzlers will sit and wait. The tarmac, the crosswalk, all of which I can't wait to see more pics of. [/sarcasm]

Oh, and the coaster looks cool too. >.<

[Glsbnewt21]

Lol tycoon... that sounds strangely sarcastic, although the parking lot does look great!

So does the coaster.

[Mudkip]

that looks awesome, that it is one of the coolest massive coasters i have seen in a long time! Great job!

[maskedbandit101]

It looks good, but I'd love to see you tackle something other than tropical themes. Hopefully there will be some of that in this project. :)

[DragsterDan87]

Stunning and just beautiful. The overall look of it is perfect. Can't wait to see more

[ThrillRider27]

Your tropical theming has never ceased to amaze me, and somehow this time it seems different, in a good way. Don't keep us waiting too long.

[Coca~Cola]

OMG CHIMERA!!1!1....Hehe, I remembered :)

Is this going to be a total reworking of Midnight Cove somewhat? I remember some computer complication made you stop after you'd finished that wooden coaster (Pegasus?)...or something like that. And only Chimera and that second coaster got finished...So I guess I'm just asking if you plan on doing a redo of the woody, too?

Either way I'm definately excited for this one ;)

[Jonesy Boy]

Fantastic I cant wait to see more.

[-Zurg]

Before reading Coca~Cola's comment I thought this had something to do with Jinn, you know, that arabian themed floorless coaster you had on that other park of yours.
But now I remember Chimera, the wooden coaster was named, Phoenix, right?

Ha! I've been lurking for too long ;)

Hope to see more soon!

[Themeparknerd]

Another Montu park! Looks good so far! :up:

[--Griffon--]

Looking good! That's a very nice parking lot picture you have there. ;)

[SaladFingers.]

That.is.beautiful. -cry. Haha great work :up:

[Cptn. Skipjack]

Great! :up:

[CompressedAir]

This looks awesome! Especially the first image of the parking lot.

[Steffen]

Great work! The coaster looks very intimidating as it stands there in the middle of almost nothing. Please promise that you wont add something too high in its nearby!

[Boston]

Nice parking lot. :o Can't say I remember what coaster that is, but it looks good anyway!

It looks good, but I'd love to see you tackle something other than tropical themes. Hopefully there will be some of that in this project. :)

I agree with this. :D

[-MoNtU]

Added... and thanks!

*me smiles*

Of course you would. :p

I like it alot! By Crescent, are you meaning like the Bread thing? Lol...

Not even remotely close. haha :p Thanks!

Wow! This is wonderful! Can't wait to see more!

Thanks!

I thoughts it was a pretty good parking lot.

Lol tycoon... that sounds strangely sarcastic, although the parking lot does look great!

So does the coaster.

Thanks!

that looks awesome, that it is one of the coolest massive coasters i have seen in a long time! Great job!

Acually, it's not as big as you think... and thanks!

It looks good, but I'd love to see you tackle something other than tropical themes. Hopefully there will be some of that in this project.

Thanks masked.. I think it's safe to say I'm getting sick of the tropical theme.. so I can promise you there will be new areas that I have yet to tangle with yet. And I'll call it "this area is for masked becuase I didn't theme it to a tropical theme." :p

Stunning and just beautiful. The overall look of it is perfect. Can't wait to see more

Thank you Dan!

Your tropical theming has never ceased to amaze me, and somehow this time it seems different, in a good way. Don't keep us waiting too long.

Well it's suppose to be African.. if that makes it somehow different..

OMG CHIMERA!!1!1....Hehe, I remembered :)

Either way I'm definately excited for this one

COKE!! Yup, you guessed it! No it's not a total reworking of that.. but it will be similar. The only thing that's the same right now is the layout of the coaster. Don't know if I plan on a redo of the woodie.. I was thinkinh more of dueling flyers but I don't know at this point. But anyway go build something!! I miss your work!

Fantastic I cant wait to see more.

Yep, that is exactly correct! Thanks for your kind words!

Another Montu park! Looks good so far! :up:

Looking good! That's a very nice parking lot picture you have there. ;)

Thanks!

That.is.beautiful. -cry. Haha great work :up:

Haha, thank you!

Great! :up:

THanks Skipjack!

This looks awesome! Especially the first image of the parking lot.

Well, it's the only image. :haha: But thank you!

Great work! The coaster looks very intimidating as it stands there in the middle of almost nothing. Please promise that you wont add something too high in its nearby!

I'm pretty sure that will be the talles thing in the park so don't worry... and thank you!

Nice parking lot. :o Can't say I remember what coaster that is, but it looks good anyway!

I agree with this. :D

Thanks Boston.. and I will. ;)

Hope everyone is having a fun summer.. Bye.

[Boston]

pls show us more than that!! ;)

I gotta say that's one of the coolest-looking first drops I've seen in a while. And I'd be lying if I said this didn't remind me at all of the Busch Gardens in Tampa a LOT. :haha:

[-NGS-]

The lift hill looks oversupported to me, but beyond that I'm not sure if I can criticize anything else--partially because you haven't shown us much!

[-MoNtU]

That's where a lot of inspiration is coming from.

The lift hill looks oversupported to me, but beyond that I'm not sure if I can criticize anything else--partially because you haven't shown us much!

The way the lift hill is it will either be undersupported or oversupported, so I went with over. ;)

[-NGS-]

The peeps are probably more grateful for that.

[Hotasflames99]

Scenery is looking amazing! It is very detailed! Can't wait to see more.

[randomperpie]

Looks great, unique coaster, and it does remind me of BGA, which is an awesome park.

[Obi_Wan_Cannoli]

MONTU! Love it! :D

Still lovin' the tropical theme (even after all these years :bulb:) hehe.

Either way, this coaster is looking sweet, and I don't mind the slight over supporting. ;) BTW, I'm totally stealing that drop layout. ;)

Also, I agree with the the BGA resemblance, especially considering I was just there :haha:

Can't wait for more buddy, hope all is well with you by the way. :)

[LightGrenades]

Something about that first picture of the last update.... Looks incredible.

Now cut it with the 2 picture 'update' teasers and show us more.:up:

[RangerStudios]

Wow, this looks like a great start to a park, I like what I see of the buildings so far, and I too think that is a awsome first drop.

[DJ Screech 09]

WANT MOAR WANT MOAR WANT MOAR. :bulb:

Lookin' good dude :up:

[rctguy123]

Show us more, it looks awesome.

[ThrillRider27]

Haha, I see how the theming is African now... It looks good, nonetheless.

[--Griffon--]

Montu do you need another logo for this ride? *hint hint*

;)

[twoody]

what set are you using for the buildings? I love this great design cant wait to see more!

Perhaps, I'll keep in touch.

Shyguy's waterworld and alpine sets, Dasmatze's Swizzit and fences, Doughnut's pool sets, The cook's sets, Ckef's tropical sets, and ingame scenery... and thanks!


Here are some more shots of Maliki...

Psych!

[Obi_Wan_Cannoli]

Awesome. Love it! I didn't realize until just right now that the lift hill was diagonal either! :D Makes it so much better...:up:

[LostThought15]

Oh my gawd.
I love that coaster. Truly spectacular.

The spiral stair case is a very nice touch to the break run.
I would suggest, though, that you consider using the spiral stair case from Vodhin's Girders 'n Glass Structural set. I think it would fit better there.

Also, I think it might be more realistic if, instead of going strictly for the cave look, you used walls pieces to make it look more cut-in to the terrain.

Great update.:up:

[DragsterDan87]

It's amazing how realistic it is

[--Griffon--]

Thank god the updates are frequent. PHSYCH.

The ride looks very good. It's nice and realistic.. reminds me of Kumba from Busch Gardens Fl.

[LostThought15]

^ Well, his name is MoNtU. lol

[RCT3Callum]

I love this park, especially that 'coaster! :)

I love the Zero-G roll over the lift, and the diagonal lift itself.
The giant Immelmann and Cobra Roll are awesome!
I just love the massive scale of it all!!

[rctguy123]

The coaster is amazing, and I love the third pic.

[KPWoCkAxX]

Looks really good. Very, realistic. Diagonal lift is nice too.

[angryemobeaver]

Very realistic layout so far. I love the colors too.

[Hotasflames99]

Love it! It is extremely realistic! I love how the Zero-G Roll goes right over the lift hill. It looks awesome! Can't wait to see more!

[-NGS-]

Refreshing to see a B&M without a massive vertical loop. The layout looks great so far, I've made zero-g rolls over the lift like that in random tracks before; it's definitely one of my favorite elements. Good job of mixed composerboy's, shyguy's, and marnetmar's rocks for the tunnel. From one of the earlier shots you gave us I thought that rock pile was in the foreground and the coaster in the background, it's remarkable how good photography can trick you! I'm excited to see how you've integrated that dive loop after the MCBR ;). Speaking of which, one thing I'm not too keen on is the level turn following the drop from the MCBR, specifically how it hugs the terrain. I think if you lowered the land around that turn just one incrament you could put in supports to add some realism. Just a thought, it all looks fantastic, and I have no problem with you sticking to the tropical theme when you do it this well!

[liamrocks]

Oh mah gowd! Its spectacular! I love the idea and the way you pulled it off. I think I love the second shot the best!

[DJ Screech 09]

You've got my attention :eek:

That coaster...

Words cannot describe the awesome.

[MDEKing]

Great stuff as usual my friend. I usually don't like diagonal lifts because they end up looking so loooong. But with the way the layout goes over and under it, it actually looks good and makes it look less RCT3-ish. A job well done. :)

[Boston]

Awesome! You know I've always been a fan of your coaster layouts, they just seem to be a cut above the rest. And I agree with NGS, it's cool to see a B&M without a giant loop as the first inversion. Of course on that one screenshot with the cobra roll, that one drop does look very unsupported! Shame! Oh and the checkerboard pattern on the front of the car looks silly! :mad:

Okay I know that was a pathetic attempt at criticism, but it's all I could find!

[AtomiCart]

It looks great. :up:

I'm not really sure I have anything more to say.... I can't wait to see more!

[TheFreshEffect]

The entrance shot reminded me of a park I wish I made, good to see it finally become a reality :up:

[SaladFingers.]

Looking very good. I like the Immelman being next to, what I presume to be, the queue line. Great job ;)

[disneyworld]

Wow this is an awesome layout! I love the scenery! and what rocks did you use?

[tyc00n10]

Lovely vegetation throughout the ride. Great rock work and supporting as well. Too bad the parking lot didn't make it into this update =p

[-MoNtU]

Awesome. Love it! I didn't realize until just right now that the lift hill was diagonal either! Makes it so much better...

I fooled around with that after you said this.. and I kind of like the pool one better, so I'm going to stick with that.

It's amazing how realistic it is

Thanks Dan!

It looks great.

I'm not really sure I have anything more to say.... I can't wait to see more!

Thanks!

[angryemobeaver]

Pineapple? I don't care what the name is, but that B&M is amazing. Reminds me of a better Kumba. I like the entrance alot too, reminds me of IoA a little bit... Great work Montu!

[-MoNtU]

That's not the name of the ride, silly. It was more of an attention getter.

[towersdude]

The entrance looks great! Coaster looks really good too, although I don't know if its just the angles of the photos but it looks a bit spread out and bare.

[Coca~Cola]

PINEAPPLE!! WTF, haha...I love how you're gettin creative with thread titles lately, though I'll admit I was actually really disappointed when I realized the update had nothing to do with fruit-themed dueling flyers or something awesome like that :(

That first night pic is just plain stunning. I love how guests are greeted with the sight of such a beautiful beast of a coaster first thing at the parking lot and entrance area...it just adds to the whole excitement of it all. I can just imagine getting to the park just as it opens in the morning and watching that thing testing and not being able to wait to get inside so I could make a direct beeline toward it and beat the crowds. :heart:

Lovin the earthy tones of the entrance buildings, particularly the beige and the terra cotta...they're are kinda vibrant yet subdued at the same time. Some really nice color choices here, I'd say.

Looking forward to more, of course! :)


Oh, and I am building something... (but sshhh don't tell anyone ;) That I plan on starting the thread some time in the near future and it's gonna be a really big deal.)

[--Griffon--]

I always love your building style, and how you use the atlantis scenery. The entrance looks very cool from the picture you showed us, (and I see the name of the park is 'Creature' ;))

The roller coaster is awesome, and well lit at night. How is this park doing on your computer? Mine would've been struggling already.

[Themeparknerd]

The two first night shots are outstanding! The carpark makes the whole thing even more realistic, something you could see in many real parks. The support work is brilliany, but I'm not a fan of the black track, I'm sure it'll grow in on me and I'll like it eventually though.

Keep it up! :up:

[Jacksonbill]

totally beautiful
I love the layout and the architecture
keep it up

[tyc00n10]

I smell a Kraken influence. Nice loop area. Great colors, great atmosphere. Looks awesome at night. And now I can find my way around the parking lot at night. Thanks for some light =p Keep it up!!

[Boston]

You know, you can't just get people all excited over some pineapple and not have at least one pineapple-themed thing in the update!! :mad: But disappointments aside (:downcast:) the entrance looks quite lovely in that last screenshot. And the first screenshot of the coaster at night looks so crazy! The lights on the lift look fantastic for some reason.

Oh, as for the trains, there are some custom floorless trains, but... meh, I guess there just isn't any clear-cut GOOD option available. You know if I could, I would. ;)

[~LoveTulie]

Very cool Montu! I really like the coaster, and how that loop goes underground. Very intense! :p Nice job with the supports too.

Although I adore that entrance! It's really nice, I love the how you mixed it with staccato walls, and the fences, and all those little details. Very well done!

[luke_1990]

This is looking great, Montu. The coaster layout is very nice, the loop section being my favourite part, the supports are well placed too, especially on the cobra-roll. Although, the ones on the loop section could be centred a little more with the update on Steel Jungle, that way it'd look more supportive imo.

Other than that, keep doing what you're doing. Those new buildings are spot-on and the colours are perfect.

[Moby]

This looks reeally great Montu. Love the lift hill, and the buildings are interesting and fit very well. Nice colours, and a very pleasant atmosphere. The only thing I'm not keen on is the cobra roll supports. They look slightly unstable.

[larry241]

You know, I have to agree with Boston. You owe us pineapple. We demand pineapple.
BTW - love the coaster. Especially the way it dips underground like Montu at BG. The scenery and terraforming is nice too. Keep up the great work!

[Old-Spice]

This is a great job. I realy love your work!

[91ad11]

what is them footers from lol ???

[SVT 305]

You and your random thread titles... At least this one doesn't fill up the whole screen! *cough* PBR *cough*

But oh man, that is a huge ride. What wonderful architecture too! It has such a natural, relaxed feel too it.

[-MoNtU]

The entrance looks great! Coaster looks really good too, although I don't know if its just the angles of the photos but it looks a bit spread out and bare.

I actually thought it was cramped, but oh well. Thanks though!

Thanks Coke! You always make me feel great about my projects! Now go post another update!! I want to see more of what you're building!

I always love your building style, and how you use the atlantis scenery. The entrance looks very cool from the picture you showed us, (and I see the name of the park is 'Creature' )

The roller coaster is awesome, and well lit at night. How is this park doing on your computer? Mine would've been struggling already.

I'm playing on full settings with no lag. Thanks Griffon!

The two first night shots are outstanding! The carpark makes the whole thing even more realistic, something you could see in many real parks. The support work is brilliany, but I'm not a fan of the black track, I'm sure it'll grow in on me and I'll like it eventually though.

Keep it up! :up:

Hopefully it will grow on you. Thanks!

totally beautiful
I love the layout and the architecture
keep it up


Thanks!

I smell a Kraken influence. Nice loop area. Great colors, great atmosphere. Looks awesome at night. And now I can find my way around the parking lot at night. Thanks for some light =p Keep it up!!

Haha, thanks tycoon!

You know, you can't just get people all excited over some pineapple and not have at least one pineapple-themed thing in the update!! :mad: But disappointments aside (:downcast:) the entrance looks quite lovely in that last screenshot. And the first screenshot of the coaster at night looks so crazy! The lights on the lift look fantastic for some reason.

Oh, as for the trains, there are some custom floorless trains, but... meh, I guess there just isn't any clear-cut GOOD option available. You know if I could, I would. ;)

I'm sorry for your dissapointment. But thanks for the kind words!

Very cool Montu! I really like the coaster, and how that loop goes underground. Very intense! :p Nice job with the supports too.

Although I adore that entrance! It's really nice, I love the how you mixed it with staccato walls, and the fences, and all those little details. Very well done!

Thanks Tulie!

This is looking great, Montu. The coaster layout is very nice, the loop section being my favourite part, the supports are well placed too, especially on the cobra-roll. Although, the ones on the loop section could be centred a little more with the update on Steel Jungle, that way it'd look more supportive imo.

Other than that, keep doing what you're doing. Those new buildings are spot-on and the colours are perfect.

That's what I needed. I'll be sure to download that and update the supports. Thanks luke!

This looks reeally great Montu. Love the lift hill, and the buildings are interesting and fit very well. Nice colours, and a very pleasant atmosphere. The only thing I'm not keen on is the cobra roll supports. They look slightly unstable.

I based the supports off of the Hulk's supports, excep for I took two out, only becuase this cobra roll is about half of the size of the Hulk's. But I'll try it with two extra supports and see how it goes. And thank you!

You know, I have to agree with Boston. You owe us pineapple. We demand pineapple.
BTW - love the coaster. Especially the way it dips underground like Montu at BG. The scenery and terraforming is nice too. Keep up the great work!

One day in the near future I will give you and Boston pineapple, I promise. Thanks Larry!

This is a great job. I realy love your work!

Thanks Old Spice!

what is them footers from lol ???

Ody's coaster stuff, or something along those lines.

You and your random thread titles... At least this one doesn't fill up the whole screen! *cough* PBR *cough*

But oh man, that is a huge ride. What wonderful architecture too! It has such a natural, relaxed feel too it.

Haha, thanks SVT!

Here is the final update for Maliki, showing off the entrance, queue, and station... enjoy.

[SVT 305]

Is that a inline-twist right out of the station? Pretty intense stuff there.

[-MoNtU]

Is that a inline-twist right out of the station? Pretty intense stuff there.

Yup, that is indeed a jojo roll.

[--Griffon--]

Looks good! I love the theming, looks great!

What set is that truck from? It looks good.

[Plokoon111]

Looking great as always Montu! (Wait wasn't your old name tmul? with a ghost from mario avatar.) Nevermind that could of been another member I remember. The style of your park is kept with all the rest of your park which is a good thing because most parks go crazy with different themes and pieces like me. Also are you playing with photo shop in these pictures something looks like in your pictures you are tracing the coaster with the tracer tool and sharpening it or blurring it, I don't know I notice these things because I do that sometimes.

[Jacksonbill]

Looks awesome!!
I really love that pots on the wall
great idea!
and also station is just amazing
keep it up!!

[Pate]

Looks good! I love the theming, looks great!

What set is that truck from? It looks good.
I think is Eletigna's street elements...something like that...

I think the submerged loop tunnel can be improved, the stucco walls over there just like that.
I really like the parking lot. But because of the coaster, hehe. Is like when you arrive to a park and you can see the thrill going on already in the entrance and you just can't wait and the smell of the station along with the screams and frenzy going on with the sounds of the lift hill and such and with all the yellin and impatience and the parking and such and you just can't AAAH!!!!


I love it :p:up:

[buisketboy]

I spy with my little eye something begining with Giant Flume.

[Themeparknerd]

Very realistic! As for the dark track, it really goes well with the sourrounding, I like it a lot now!

KEep it up! :up:

[Hotasflames99]

Looking great! And dang, an inline twist out of the station. Nice! The queue and entrance area is looking superb!

[rctguy123]

AWESOME, the station and the queue look great! I love the themeing.

[Coca~Cola]

Delightful! :heart:

The first shot's my favorite again. You got the lighting just right and I love how you mounted those vases on the facade walls. Creative creative creative. What a great touch!

Nice to see you being so thorough with all the little details (the scattered remains in the queue, those cool hanging lamps, the transfer track...all of that) and the jojo roll is just one more good thing to like. I really appreciate how you completely finished absolutely EVERYTHING in the queue area, rather than just show pics taken at angles to make it look finished...or at least I think you did. In the fourth-to-last pic we're seeing the exit and a little souvenier shop, right? That's looking good too.

So POV time?
Please. :)

[chrisy177]

Beautiful coaster, there! The colours remind me of Kraken, but the design is much better!

[MDEKing]

Well, your attention grabber grabbed my attention. And these last two updates almost made me grab something else. Great stuff here, Montu!

[SaladFingers.]

Ooh very cool. The twist out of the station is great. I :heart: the submerged loop. Great work ;)

[theride2119]

Amazing work!! I really love your architecture...
keep up the good work!!

[ytivarg]

The coaster looks like it'd be great fun to ride. The submerged loop reminds me a lot of Montu's sunken second-half. :up:

There's a set of ground covers I used in RPM recently in the queue that had a gorgeous sand texture. I think it's the "Covers & More" set that shows up in foliage. Check that out, used sparingly -- perhaps in the queue scenery areas? -- it'll help kick the visual interest up a notch. Looks more like sand than anything the ground textures in the game can produce.

[-MoNtU]

Thanks a lot Coke! Everything about Maliki is complete, except I need to revise some suppports here and there. POV? Yeah, hopefully. But I would like to finish this area first, so when you're riding the coaster it will seem more complete.

Beautiful coaster, there! The colours remind me of Kraken, but the design is much better!

[AT_Mad]

Am really liking maliki, great layout and the colour scheme works well, don't often see supports with more colour than the track :P. Am looking forward to finding what other rides you have in store for this park!

[MagicMan]

Maliki looks awesome. The colors are just perfect, and the inline/barrel roll out of the station....:up:. Nice update!!

Nice variety of scenery and buildings, and i great use of the diagonal.

[theride2119]

Woah, I love those masks!

[-NGS-]

You're so obnoxious with your titles. :haha:

I'm liking this progress. One thing I'm fond of for no particular reason is the fences on the paths in shot 2. The lampposts look great atop the netting, and I like the look that the net and crooked wood fences create. The splash boats ride will be spectacular, I'm sure, but I'm not a fan of the rock arch above the splashdown. These rides are supposed to be guest-interactive, and while you've got the path to the side for peeps to get soaked on, the arch looks like it totally ruins the front view/main splashage area.

Oh, and one last tiny thing. In the 3rd picture, waaaay in the background in that building on the right, there's a window on the 2nd floor that intersects with a roof. Consider fixing. :)

Thanks for your helpful post NGS. I will remove the rock arch, I understand what you mean. But the way the boats splash is to the side and that's why I've created somewhat of a tunnel under the bridge. So in theory the splash from the boat will ricochet off the walls and come back on the riders.. sort of similar to splash mountain. But of course this is rct3 and that doesn't happen... but I can only imagine. Oh and I will fix the window.

Well, I'm preparing an update so expect one in the next 30 minutes or so. :)

[SVT 305]

I refuse to comment on parks with obnoxious titles... Oh well, who am I kidding, I'll comment anyways.

Hmmm. Maliki looks so much smaller in that overview. I expected a much longer ride, haha. Not really much else to say except those splash boats look fun.

Oh yeah, bump for that update.

PS: Here's a super small title to make up for the big one!

[SaladFingers.]

I love it! The architecture is really good and gives it a nice atmosphere. I think some fountains or something in the Giant Flume's splash pool would look good ;) The queue is really cool to, how it goes around all of the rocks. Awesome work :up:

[Moby]

^ Agreed. This park is really coming along splendidly. Well done Montu!

Great new title, but now i've forgotten what this park is called!?

Well the only things left to do is to finsih building a few buildings and decorate the paths some more. I feel that it's too open and it needs something to break it up, but I don't want to do the typical planters.. anyone have any suggestions?

[ytivarg]

Merchandise/Food/Beverage carts? Hi-Striker games? Sculptures?

[-MoNtU]

Merchandise/Food/Beverage carts? Hi-Striker games? Sculptures?

Yes.

[SaladFingers.]

How about something for the kids. A park or something. An indoor play area :p Or a rock climbing wall :D

[McCoaster]

Your park is amazing. The theming is beautiful... One of the beste parks I've ever seen!

[Boston]

I know you really like the tropical theme and everything (I do, too, and you're certainly good at it), but I'm dying to see what you could do with, say, the sci-fi theme or something.

[DwadeMelo]

Wow this is like a massive outdoor mall. So many stores!!!!!

Thanks, but it is the entrance.. and all entrances have tons of shops!


So here's the deal.. I'm moving into college tomorrow and I probably won't have much time to play. So if I don't update this for a while it doesn't mean I have stopped working on this. So don't expect updates often.

Hi, Montu!

Looks great! I love the building style it is amazing how many different types of tropical you can have

[SaladFingers.]

Where have you been! You have got to be the best Tropical theme maker on the forums. Looks great as usual. Water ride looks superb, maybe some water guns incoorporated somewhere?

[SVT 305]

Hi montu! I've missed this park.

It looks great as usual, except the contrast/levels in the first picture are terrible!

Looks great Montu.

Ooh yey:love: I love your parks Montu, and this doesn't fail to amaze me. And how do you ^ all know it will be an invert? It could be one of the revolutionary rides, or just an invert :haha: Either way, I'm sure it will look great once it's finished:up:

[-SwitchBack]

Wow this park is great! I really like every thing about it right down to the last detail! Nice job!

[colbycx]

Dueling Dragons 2

[Gluesniffa]

I love your style Montu! I hope those are dueling inverts, thats a project I've always wanted to do. :up:

[shyguy]

Great theming! I love the color scheme and architecture. Some wicked rides too!

[Raven!]

dam your too good Montu!! lol :p

[Boston]

hmmm.... looks to be some kind of newfangled tracked ride? Although I demand more pictures until I can make a sure judgment. :o

[-MoNtU]

Thanks all for the comments. Here's another teaser. Work is coming along but VERY slowly. But I can say I'm very happy with the layout I have come up with... :)

http://img34.imageshack.us/img34/8227/shot0045q.jpg

[-Sheikra-]

nice,duelers Montu ;)

[-MoNtU]

nice,duelers Montu ;)

But what is the other one???????

Maybe a flyer????????????????????????????????????

????????????????????????????????????????

[-Sheikra-]

maybe,i reckon first one: Inverted other inverted,as much as i reckon i'm wrong if think you'd go for the more realistic things :p your park reminds me of BGA lol.

[buisketboy]

i never noticed this before but after relooking at all off the pictures i noticed your B&M Sit down ( forgot the name, Forgive me) In its station the back two rows don't have seperate loading gates. Whys that?

also i think there both normal Inverts although it would be quite cool if the other was a flyer and certinatly unique but for some reason my mind is telling me your just trying to mess with our heads!

Anyway Great Park!

P.s forgive my spelling, its never been my strong! point

[disneyworld]

But what is the other one???????

Maybe a flyer????????????????????????????????????

????????????????????????????????????????

Well I certainly hope it is an invert :p

[-NGS-]

I'm liking the Nemesis-style layout so far. Nice twist making it a dueler. Support color is boring the crap out of me, though.

[ytivarg]

^ I, too, like the Nemesis-esque beginning...

But, I don't agree with the critique of the support colors. Kinda. ;) Yeah.. it's a boring color... but on a dueler, shouldn't the supports kinda fade away, and let the two contrasting track colors speak for themselves? (ie: Dueling Dragons, or whatever carp they're calling it next week)

[-MoNtU]

Sorry for no fancy editing like n7..

http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/3029/shot0048.jpg

click to enlarge.. although it's not much of a difference.

I just thought it was a cool shot I felt like I needed to update. Don't worry a large update should come within the next couple of weeks.

[TheWizard]

lovin this -Montu :p

[-Zurg]

No fancy edditing? then I'm not posting! :mad::p

Absolutely great panoramic Montu. I really hope you finish this one. ;)

[-NGS-]

I really like the details in that panorama, Montu. The caps on the space shots, the lone tall palms in the left and right-middle, and I wholeheartedly appreciate the topography; it's not easy to create a good looking "unlevel" park, but I see nice terrain texture changes, appropriate and creative tree placement, and beautiful organic hills. Keep it going, man!

[Gluesniffa]

I definitely spot dueling loops! Can't wait to ride that thing then. I tried a dueling invert, hardest thing ever haha. This project is really turning out quite well. :up:

[SVT 305]

That would be a perfect skyline to stitch together multiple pictures to make an extremely high resolution shot!

[colbycx]

Looks nifty!

[SaladFingers.]

ooh that looks so cool, them duelers look amazing! can't wait to see it close up:D

[Boston]

Do I dare say that the panorama reminds me of Islands of Adventure? I see The Hulk, Dr. Doom's Fear Fall, and the Dragon Challenge (which, by the way, is a great name for a roller coaster, have you considered using it? ;))

More please. :)

COKE!! Yup, you guessed it! No it's not a total reworking of that.. but it will be similar. The only thing that's the same right now is the layout of the coaster. Don't know if I plan on a redo of the woodie.. I was thinkinh more of dueling flyers but I don't know at this point. But anyway go build something!! I miss your work!

i think i worked out what they are :haha:

[91ad11]

Well Done Mate Just Checked out All 6Pages and Its Great :D Kept me excited :O

That Dueling Coaster looks pretty cool to cant wait to see more , I think people should make Dueling Coaster from Singapore. Battlestar Galitica that would be interesting but it wouldn't go well with this park haha once again Well Done ! :D 9/10 :D

Last one I promise. ;)

Do I dare say that the panorama reminds me of Islands of Adventure? I see The Hulk, Dr. Doom's Fear Fall, and the Dragon Challenge (which, by the way, is a great name for a roller coaster, have you considered using it? ;))

More please. :)

Dude, that isn't the Hulk, that's more like Kumba. ;)

[~LoveTulie]

Very nice Montu! Loving those duelers.. they seem to interact with each, making a cool experience. Love the landscaping too... the skyline is very pretty!

[tyc00n10]

Sexy. But, palm trees don't belong on lift hills. (I know its not there, just the angle of the shot makes it look that way... yea yea yea... whatever... you know you thought that too). Looking forward to some "real" pics of the area.

Love it, I see you have been using Dueling Dragons as inspiration:p

[Santas Helpers]

Second picture looks AWESOME! :D

[rctguy123]

Looks great, but I think some parts of the castle building could use more details.

I think your advice could use more details.

Looking ace, Montu! Stop it with all the teasing. I want to see the layout. :)

You should know by know Montu is just a big tease. What with his posting only two pictures at once all the time. :noob:

And I think the castles are perfectly detailed. It's the fault of the game's shadows (or lack thereof) that makes the buildings blend together.

[-MoNtU]

Thanks all for the comments!

Right now, I need some help:

It looks good, but I'd love to see you tackle something other than tropical themes. Hopefully there will be some of that in this project. :)



I agree with this. :D

Okay, but what would you guys like to see? I'm kinda at a loss of ideas. I don't want to do something tropical, but I want an area that will still be able to fit nicely into the park and I am having a hard time coming up with an idea.

I have a coaster layout, and a super rough path layout shown below:

http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/9516/shot0057c.jpg

I really like this layout. It's like a mix of Millennium force and maverick, and it is very fun to ride!

So anyone have any ideas on what theme I should build around this?

[Plokoon111]

I say make it a rocky one, with lots of rocks and some water lakes around it, not to big but natural looking. Maybe make some of the track go through a small cave.

[-NGS-]

Medieval; the use of some walls you've already got will draw the area together with the rest of the park. You can surround the ride with parapets and possibly incorporate a moat, towers, and a village.

[ytivarg]

What about some sort of industrial research facility on the edge of your tropical paradise. Experiments gone wrong in a very "big brother" kind of way? Would allow you to play with some new elements (sci-fi/industrial) while keeping somewhat tied to your tropical safe-zone :D

[-MoNtU]

Thanks for your suggestions! Keep them coming!

And in the meantime, here's more of Tengu...

[Plokoon111]

Wow Montu that really is a work of art.

[SaladFingers.]

I'm sure I've heard of Tengu before...hmm.

I agree with Plokoon on the coaster; a nice terrain hugger would be great, with rocks, waterfalls, vegetation etc. I think that would look ace;)

[-NGS-]

I didn't realize there was already a castle aspect going on here. I think that makes the prospect of a medieval area that much more enticing; it's much easier to make a stylistic transition than it is to just try to pick up a completely different style, and it would probably look better. From what you've just shown me, there's no deficiency in your current abilities, so take comfort in that.

[Jacksonbill]

woah, love that dual coaster!
I wanna see more detailed picture of the station and POV!

[live_the_thrill]

It's soo clean and crisp, jealous all over :noob::up:

I actually really like this, and you could have a lot of fun coming up with ideas.

Also what LTT said. :up:

So far, this is my favorite idea. That would be awesome. ;)

Also, sweet job with those duelers. They look awesome!

[MagicMan]

Seems like to much clutter where your duelers interact the most. Other than that area, the duelers looks great!!


Based on the layout you have for the black coaster, I'd go with Ytivarg's Industrial suggestion. It'd fit the layout of the ride really well.

[-MoNtU]

Wow Montu that really is a work of art.

Thanks Plo.

Thanks for your input, NGS. But, I would like to vary the lands up and I already have that planned to finish off the rest of Tengu's area.

I think it's more the angle of the picture. Here's a small overview to show you the layouts.

One step ahead of me, as always. :)
I didn't realize how complicated and long Tengu is (are?). Fantastic, man!

Anyway I apologize for the lack of updates but now that I'm on break hopefully I'll be posting more. Stay tuned. :)

[colbycx]

As for the new coaster, what I would love to see is a coaster that really interacts with the peeps. Like it would be sweet if it crossed over many paths and maybe was built into the park more instead of off to the side. That, and don't make it red or blue. Coasters are always painted red or blue. So maybe a green or something else would be nice. Anyways, i hope this helps! BTW, I LOVE Tengu!

[SaladFingers.]

Tengu looks so cool:heart: Nice shots you have there, although the rain makes the park seem so solemn. Ah well, great work!

[ljconnolly1]

Wow montu everything is stunning it feels so real. I love the overview of your duelers. Can I just ask what sets you used for the african buildings and the castle.

This looks really good.

[KKJohn]

well, i really like your rollercoaster's layout !!! especially the new idea !!
but i have to say that the water ride looks really nice too !

[SaladFingers.]

Update FINALLY! Although there isn't much to see, it looks great. The shot from outside the park looks like what you would see in a real park! Love it Montu, can't wait for more:)

[andyman127]

keep working on it. Looks really good from the pictures you have posted. No complaints about anything here.

[larry241]

That second one is nice shot. There's lots of depth in the picture. Show us more!

Small update. Voo Doo was replaced, with, well, a new Voo Doo.

Thanks again for the comments! And nice to see you around larry!

[GlassSnow]

Usually I find something to criticise but I see nothing! Keep up the great work, and for the coaster your not sure about the theme for, how about something like elements'
Wind, water, Fire and earth. You could pull something like that off I think without it being very contrasting to the surrounding theme.

[Xendax]

Fantastic!

[angryemobeaver]

The new Voodoo is pretty sexy! And I love the entrance to what ever ride that is (photo 4) it reminds me of something you would see at Busch Gardens Africa. I always love it when people make hidden queue lines that are kinda sunken into the ground and behind trees and buildings!

[andyman127]

looks great, it is nice seeing people creating dueling coasters, it isn't often that you see them.

[CoasterFan7]

^i agree
i like booth coasters. And the park is just...amazing!
nicely done -MoNtU!
