I made a Youtube channel to highlight some small RCT2 creations I made. Don't have the time to make large parks or rides anymore, but this has been a fun little project. Backlash A RMC Hybrid shuttle coaster with multiple launches. Super Looper A Schwarzkopf Looper with a simmilar design...

Something I never really thought about before, but I am always fascinated by terrain coasters and parks built into the side of hills or valleys. What parks out there have the steepest terrain? The two that come to mind are Kennywood and Six Flags Fiesta Texas.

Sorry about being so late posting this up. The comp kind of ran out of steam at the end, but we have 3 entries here. Vote for each park on a scale of 1 to 10 and PM your vote to me. You don't have to be in the comp to vote, but if you are in the comp you must vote in order to gain the 5pts...

Just testing the waters here, I'd like to run some beginner friendly RCT3 comps, so heres my idea. RCT3 Comp #1 - Time Machine For this comp we are going back in time almost 100 years now to the 1920's the first golden age of roller coasters. You are the owner of a small resort and looking to...

So after riding it several times during the day I decided to experience Stormrunner at night. As we blasted up the first hill I threw my hands up. Sitting in the second to front seat for a second I felt like I was flying over the entire park, and the view took my breath away more than the drop...

So after my full day at Hershey park where I rode rides like Storm Runner, Fahrenheit, and Skyrush multiple times, I had some issues falling asleep that night. Laying in bed my body still felt similar to the way it does when I experience "air-time" on a coaster. I assume others have had this...

Just recently got RCT3 on my new computer, so I spent a little time getting reacquainted with the game. Here is the result. I present to you THE ARK An indoor amusement park located just outside of Las Vegas Nevada complete with watersides, roller coasters, and thrill rides. The Ark...

So this may be my last summer where I have the time to make NL rides, so here are my most recent projects. I want to focus on how my rides interact with pathways and other elements in a theme park, so I am doing a lot of building with supports. My first ride is a B&M floorless set at a park...

This question might be a little far out there but I was doing a little thinking... As technology progressed and theme parks get larger, old rides get knocked down and new ones take there place. Eventually entire breeds of roller coasters are wiped out to make room for taller, faster, more...

I was working on painting a NL ride the other day, and came to realize I don't think I have ever seen a pink roller coaster. Is there any out there I'm forgetting?

So anyone who's taken the time to make an account on this sight, probably recognizes names like "King Da Ka", "Mellenium Force", and "Magnum XL 200" as record breaking coasters, but while perusing the internet today, I found a few that I never knew where the tallest and fastest of their day...

So for a while I have wanted to create rides with .3ds scenery but I have a mac so that has already been an issue. Last semester for school I got a free copy of AutoCad 2013 for my laptop, and am now wondering if I can get the 3d files from there into no limits. AutoCad used to have a .3ds...

A while ago I had an idea for a spinning coaster whose blueprint was larger vertically than horizontally. The idea was to support the ride between two towers, but I made the mistake of designing the track before the towers and soon enough the whole thing fell apart. I've decided to try it again...

I'm not really a hardcore gamer but since I'm home from school and have nothing else to do, I'm looking for a game to keep me occupied, I don't really want anything over $30 since I wont be using it once fall comes around. So these are the three I'm considering right now. I also just bought...

Not sure if you guys have seen it, but it made me laugh a bit. :P http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVeHxUVkW4w

Hey so recently I got contacted for an interview to work as a EHS Supervisor at Sesame Place, a small theme park geared at younger kids. Its just a summer job and it mostly deals with keeping the park and rides safe. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone else here has worked at an amusement park or...

The particular coaster in question is Desparado. On a travel channel documentary, owners of the casino made the claim that with the right wind speed, Desparado can reach speeds of up to 93mph (13mph faster that rcdb lists as its top speed). I know train weight, weather, wind and many other...

Ok, so you are going to have to bare with me and picture OTS restraints on this thing, but here is the general concept. Instead of spinning 50 or so feet off of the ground, riders will climb a vertical lift approximately 115-130 feet into the air. The ride then spins dangerously along the edge...

I noticed this is the queue for Fahrenheit yesterday and I was wondering what is the purpose of what looks to be plastic piece located directly behind the back right top wheel of the last car. I think this piece does touch the track, but i think its too small to produce any significant drag...

With the addition of Skyrush, Hershey's Comet Hollow section now features four coasters (Skyrush, Great Bear, SDL, and Comet) all crammed together in one small section of the park. I was wondering what other parks have several coasters piled on top of one another?
